"It's great you came at the right time, Commander Ji. Rocky is stuck in the array of our enemy. Let's lead the troops to rescue him right away." Marin looked at Sabina who was on Duchess Silver's back anxiously and nervously.
"Take it easy, Marin. You don't have to hurry. If we take action hastily and are caught by their array, we will just fail Rocky's intention of getting inside of it," Sabina said seriously as she jumped off Duchess Silver.
"His intention?" Marin was dumbfounded by what Sabina had just said. She had no idea what Sabina was talking about.
"In my opinion, this array is not ordinary. Instead, it looks quite lethal and dangerous, and it will become very difficult to get out once we enter it recklessly. That must be the reason why Rocky decided to enter the array alone because he wanted to avoid possible major casualties for the Crimson Dragon Army," Sabina explained, as if she saw through Rocky's real intention without difficulty. Part of it was because she heard Rocky and Woods talking when she came back.
The reason for her sudden disappearance a while ago was partly Woods' fault. When she was about to reach the west side of the Hippo Land, she found four figures nearby. Three among them were giving out an aura above the Heavenly Stage. Sabina was curious about their identities, and she moved towards them. As a result, she ran into Woods and three senior spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage. They protected Woods from a possible battle that might happen.
But it was strange that Woods didn't show some hostility towards her. Instead, when he found out that she was a spirit manipulator at the Supernal Stage, he acted normal and didn't fear her. He spoke with ease and fluency, but all his three bodyguards looked extremely frightened that she would kill them all.
After the three bodyguards took Woods away, it was the time when Sabina could get her feet back to Hippo Land. That encounter was the reason why it took her so long.
"How dare he enter the array by himself?! He always acts so recklessly every single time!" Marin said. Her face changed its color when she heard Sabina's analysis.
"Exactly! If he dies in that array, nobody will bury his body." Sabina echoed with Marin, but despite her brutal words, she admired Rocky's courageous act.
"Now that we know this array is dangerous, we can't just sit still and wait for our death. We need to find a way on how to deal with it," Marin said. Her face looked very worried about the situation that Rocky was in, and she was burning with anxiety.
"Marin, it seems like you're so worried about him, huh?" Sabina asked with a faint smile on her face when she saw the expression of Marin. She examined her as if she could read what was inside Marin's head.
"Not at all! I'm just worried because, because..." Marin denied instantly, but she didn't know what to explain and how to react intelligently right away. As a result, she could only find a far-fetched reason. "I'm only bothered because he is the Elite Commander who leads our troops. If he meets with a catastrophe, nobody could ever lead us," she said.
"Really?" Sabina asked, setting her beautiful eyes on Marin.
That gaze of Sabina made Marin feel guilty. Marin quickly avoided the gaze and looked at the Magic Lotus Array. It was blooming, yet it was also motionless.
Rocky, on the other hand, was inside the barrier of the array. He saw many people kept moving at a high speed around him. All of a sudden, a burst of arrows fell from the sky just like rainfall. The sound of flying arrows lingered on his ears.
Rocky raised his spiritual power, trying to resist every arrow that fell. A stream of Evil Flame appeared in an exquisite curve when he waved his hands. The curve began flashing, forming a protective screen in front of him. The falling arrows flared as soon as they touched the protective screen that Rocky created.
After evading one arrow after another, Rocky then saw about one hundred spears rushing towards him.
He promptly turned up and strode in the air, and in just a second, the spears plunged onto the ground beneath him, interlacing each other.
After minutes of dodging and burning the arrows and spears, he escaped in succession. However, as soon as he stood back on the ground, several streams of spiritual light rushed to him from different directions and angles. He wielded his Frozen Wind Dagger and turned its edge with running flame, and brandished it forward to resist the spiritual light.
The next moment, the spiritual light flickered with an explosion. It was a resounding explosion that can be heard from here to there.
But before Rocky could relax for a moment, here came again another set of rainfall of arrows.
