Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 617

"We got a news that Miss Laney was kidnapped here, so... But what on earth happened? Miss Laney, why did you..." Those figures looked at the clothes scattered on the ground with little confusion and couldn't guess at all.

"I'm fine. My identity has been known to all, so I can't stay in Evian City any longer. We have to go back to the Timber Deity Empire right now," said Laney. She shook her head very calmly and then went out of the cave while wrapping her robe more tightly. But soon she turned around and said, "You better forget what you saw just now. If anyone dares to disclose it, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Yes, Miss Laney. We obey as you say." Those figures cupped their hands and bowed hurriedly.

Soon Laney left the cave and disappeared in the dim moonlight under the protection of these figures.

As Rocky walked out of the dense jungle with tall dark conifers, he looked at Laney and other figures disappearing. Rocky sneered and said to himself, "You must be curious to know why I didn't kill you? You are still useful for me. I would rather keep you alive than kill you. Maybe you can be a trump card of mine." After that he disappeared from the land of tall trees in the jungle.

Lance had already asked someone to deliver the information to Isis informing her that Rocky was back.

Isis had been sending people to look for Rocky during the period that he was missing. So when she heard that Rocky was back, she finally felt relieved. Meanwhile, she went back to the base camp as soon as she got the news because Lance wanted to meet her urgently.

After returning to the base camp, she went straight to Lance's study.

His study was this vast room with mild yellow light and wooden cabinets. Isis always met her father there when she had to talk in person.

"Father... I'm here," said Isis as soon as she entered Lance's study. Lance was stuck at a moment of contemplation when Isis arrived.

"You are back! Thank God," said Lance. With a kind fatherly smile, he was very happy to see his daughter after long.

"Is there anything important that you want to say as you asked me to meet you urgently?" asked Isis. She knew that her father would not call her back in such a hurry, unless the matter was of much importance.

Isis raised her brows with desperation to know what he had to tell her. She was confused.

Lance nodded gently. Then he stood up and walked to the bay window on the north. He sighed, looking a little bit worried. He tried to speak out, but ended up mumbling few words.

"Father, what's wrong with you? Is there anything bothering you?" Isis asked anxiously.

"Isis, do you think we can win in this final battle? I know we have worked hard," Lance asked by staring into his daughter's eyes.

"If we use the power of the Elite Regiment, we will still have a good chance of winning," replied Isis. She thought about it for a while considering all possibilities. But she didn't have the confidence to conclude about the probability to win this battle. These things were quite unpredictable according to her.

"It seems that you think we only have a slight chance of winning even if we use the power of the Elite Regiment. I can see that you are unsure," Lance said as eyes darkened slowly.

"No one can predict the result of the war with complete assurance since ancient times. Even if one side won, it would cost countless lives. The only thing that winner can get from the fight is one victory and endless war," Isis said with deepened eyes. She had already experienced the cruelty of war and knew the terrible aftereffects.

"You are absolutely right. Even if one really wins, a great number of people would die for nothing. That's why I want to use the power of the Elite Regiment to finish this final battle. It is time to put an end to it no matter what result will be. We will try our best not to lose. We need to increase the chance of winning with proper planning," Lance said thoughtfully.

"Chance of winning? Father, do you mean?" added Isis.
