Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 692

Another day passed in Heaven Unicorn City. In the temporary camp of the Crimson Dragon Army located inside the city, Rocky was occupied with studying the terrain map of Yu City.

"Senior Commander Rocky." He looked up, as Fleming walked in with a somber expression on his face.

"Do you have any information?" Rocky asked immediately, to which Fleming nodded enthusiastically.

"Yes, sir. It's from Mont City." "Mont City?" Rocky remarked with an eyebrow quirked up in interest.

"What's it about?" He probed further when Fleming didn't speak at once. "According to our intelligence officers, more than two thousand soldiers of Crimson Dragon Army and three thousand common people were captured when the Holy Sea Empire occupied Mont City."

Fleming paused, breathed deeply, and then continued, "There are some survivors. It appears that the Holy Sea Empire has shown them mercy and didn't kill them all."

Rocky nodded with an impassive expression. He was relieved that there were survivors, but it was too early to celebrate. More than that, he needed to make sure that the information was reliable, so he asked, "Where did they get this information?"

"It came from a deputy commander who has been captured. He learned that we withdrew the army to Heaven Unicorn City, so he secretly sent us this information," Fleming readily replied. "That's good."

Rocky nodded, as some tension drained from his stiff posture. "Try to keep in touch with him so that we can get more information about Mont City and the Holy Sea Empire's army," he added.

"Yes, sir!" Fleming saluted before he bowed and left the room to do as he was bid.

As soon as Fleming stepped outside, Isis rushed in with a panicked expression on her ashen face.

"What's wrong?" Rocky asked, immediately alarmed. After all, Isis wasn't someone who was easily shaken, so to see her in such a state was disquieting.

She had a letter clutched to her hand so tightly that Rocky was afraid it would be torn to pieces. He reached out and gently took it from her.

His face darkened, as he read further into the letter. It informed them that the Crimson Dragon Army couldn't send them reinforcements, and Rocky was ordered to buy time and defend Heaven Unicorn City. A quick look at the bottom told him that it was Alston who gave the order.

"What the hell is the crown prince doing? The right-wing defensive line has ten thousand soldiers available. How could he say that he couldn't send reinforcements?" Isis blurted in outrage. She looked so angry that Rocky was afraid she would burst into flames at any second.

"Calm down. I can't say I'm surprised he did something like this, but I didn't think he was this cruel either. He would risk the lives of people in three cities just for his interests?" Rocky muttered while shaking his head. Alston wasn't a good person, but he didn't realize that he was this despicable. If they didn't have reinforcements, three small cities would surely be occupied, and the people in the cities would suffer. If they lost all three cities, many people would be killed.

"I have to inform my father right away. He can stop the crown prince," Isis suggested quietly, although it was clear that she was just grasping at straws. She couldn't believe how vile Alston was!

"Don't bother. Now that Alston has a high position within the Crimson Dragon Group, the Commander in Chief won't be able to do anything. I'm afraid that the Commander in Chief is in a tight place right now as well. After all, Alston is the crown prince of the Holy Dragon Empire." The truth was Lance was in a grave situation himself, now that Alston was overtly moving to take over the Crimson Dragon Group and exclude him. And he had to restrain himself too because he couldn't afford to outright offend Alston.

"What should we do if we don't receive reinforcements?" Isis asked, her voice quivering. She knew that if there were no reinforcements, there would be nothing but death for them. The remaining troops of the Crimson Dragon Army and the soldiers in Heaven Unicorn City only totaled to several thousand. They were no match for the whole army of the Holy Sea Empire.

"We have to find another way to increase our military forces," said Rocky thoughtfully.
