When Marin witnessed the sheer coldness and cunningness in Rocky's eyes, she almost froze for a moment. Whenever she saw this kind of expression on his face, there would be something big waiting to happen.
"I'll get ready right away." However, Rocky's words incited Marin to fight again. After so many days of utter humiliation, this was her chance to avenge herself.
"When you leave, please help me call in Commander Ji," Rocky said.
Marin took a look at Rocky and felt very strange. The atmosphere surrounding him had a sudden transition. Rocky was all out serious, but she was not sure about what was going on. Furthermore, at that moment Rocky projected an aura of a powerful Commander.
"Commander Marin?" Rocky asked in a confused tone, as he saw Marin not leaving but looking at him dazedly.
"Oh, I'll go now." Marin came back to her senses. She blushed and thought from her heart, 'What's wrong with me? I can't believe I was staring at Rocky! The most important thing now is to get the Hippo Land back. This time we must ensure the garrison of the Timber Deity Empire would experience the real might of our Crimson Dragon Army!' Thinking about all this, Marin walked out of the Commander's tent.
Not long after, Sabina walked in stone faced as usual. She had a quick glance at Rocky and then asked, "What's the matter?"
"How about going for a walk inside the enemy's military camp tonight?" Rocky said light heartedly, but with a hint of irresistible aura.
"Go for a walk? What do you mean?" Sabina asked with a wild frown after hearing what Rocky had said. She had no clue on Rocky's intentions.
"Actually, I want you to protect me. After all, it's not safe for me to go to the enemy military's camp all alone. However, with the protection of a master at the Supernal Stage like you, it would be a different story!" Rocky made his intentions clear.
"You want me to protect you? Why should I do that?" Sabina snorted.
"Didn't you protect me last time?" Rocky sounded out.
"Did I?" Sabina glared at Rocky and tried to act like nothing had happened.
"Well, if you don't want to come with me, I won't force you. Tonight I'm going to burn the transportation boats of the Timber Deity Empire..." Rocky smiled and continued.
"You want to burn the boats? Tonight?" Sabina seemed to be surprised by Rocky's sudden and unexpected plan.
"Because I want to act rashly and alert the enemy!" Rocky said firmly with a shrewd twinkle in his eye.
Sabina hesitated for a moment when she heard Rocky and thought there was something more to it. It seemed that Rocky had already devised a plan. So she walked out without saying anything else.
"What a soft-spoken woman!" Rocky smiled after seeing Sabina's attitude.
The Hippo Land fell silent with the onset of night. The soldiers of the Crimson Dragon Army's camp on the hillside had lit a bonfire so bright that the whole camp looked like a pearl on the mountain.
But, under the cover of these lights, Marin and her five thousand soldiers were quietly making their way towards the Hippo Land. Just before the onset of their action, Rocky had already disclosed the exact plan of attack to her. On hearing the ploy, she was really surprised because Rocky had already planned everything from the beginning, including letting her lead feint against the Timber Deity Empire's garrison a number of times. Moreover, the feint itself seemed an extremely important part of the maneuver. As soon as she conceived his tactic, all her resentment had vanished.
Just as Marin and her five thousand soldiers were making their way into the Hippo Land, the Crimson Dragon Army's camp on the hillside was making a deafening noise as a deception. Those figures were jumping and dancing as if they were having a bonfire party.
