The Medallion novel Chapter 1410

"Where am I?" Rocky didn't know whether to cry or laugh as he had a bad start upon setting foot in that place. In fact, it was more or less a blow to him.

Since he lost the ability to fly, he had no choice but to start his journey in this alien land by walking.

Upon getting out of the stream, he walked his way and passed through a very thick forest. There, he laid eyes on a broad road that seemed empty. As a result, he had no chance to even ask where he was.

'Where should I go now?' Rocky wondered. Looking at the two sides of the road, he thought that perhaps, he would be lucky enough if he chose the southern path.

Frankly, luck was always on Rocky's side. In fact, it was not long after that he saw a carriage moving towards him. Upon looking at it closely, he found out that it was not really an ordinary carriage per se. As a matter of fact, it was packed with cargoes with a slender and seemingly powerful spiritual beast as its driver, speeding its way on the road.

"Wow, I never thought that a beast that size can move so fast after all!" Rocky exclaimed as he examined it from a professional point of view. Based on how it moved, the spiritual beast driving it must be at least at the Supernal Stage in the Wild Spirit Land. On the other hand, such a spiritual beast was only used to drive a carriage, which was enough to change his expectations of this unknown land.

"Uhm, excuse me?" Rocky asked loudly, trying to grab the beast's attention. He did not hesitate to step forward and wave his hand so that the carriage would stop. At that time, the most important thing for him to know was where he was.

But unfortunately, the carriage did not slow down at all. Instead, it even sped up almost instantly. With a whooshing sound, it passed by Rocky and vanished at the end of the road in the twinkling of an eye.

"Hey! Are you afraid that I'll rob you? Excuse me, but I'm not a bandit if that's what you're thinking!" Rocky huffed from behind. Beyond anything, he felt immensely frustrated. However, there was nothing he could do but keep walking.

After a couple of minutes, another carriage, driven by a spiritual beast just like the one that had passed by, was approaching him.

He already learned his lesson from the first carriage, so he made it to a point to stop in the middle of the road. In this way, there was no excuse for the carriage to drive past him again.

But to his surprise, his plan still failed. This second carriage sped as fast as lightning, completely ignoring him without even reducing its speed.

In all honesty, Rocky could have stopped the carriage by using his strength. But since he was a newcomer, he wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible. Thus, he immediately moved to the side to dodge the carriage since it was rushing towards him so fast and ignoring him again. In a snap, this second carriage just brushed past him.

The man driving the carriage turned around and cursed furiously, "Brat, how could you be so blind? I am right here, you idiot!"

'What a completely arrogant being! I should have just torn his carriage apart when I had the chance! Oh, forget it. I'd better summon Glutton as a ride,' Rocky thought to himself. His last battle with Alston took the lives of all his spiritual beasts. Now, only Glutton remained to keep him company.

Meanwhile, another carriage was fast approaching. Only this time, it was not carrying any cargoes. This third carriage was well decorated, which gave the impression that it was carrying people with high social status. Its driver, on the other hand, was breathtaking. It resembled a unicorn, blue from head to toe, that walked as fast as a creature could fly.

When he saw this, Rocky's lips gave a smirk, and his eyes immediately flashed sinisterly. Thinking fast, he hid behind some trees beside the road. With great timing, he rushed out of the forest as soon as the third carriage approached. At the same time, he used a tiny portion of his strength to purposely knock the carriage a little askew. Without thinking twice, he let himself fall on the ground and closed his eyes as if it was the carriage's fault for putting him in such a position.

As he expected, the fancy carriage instantly came into a halt. Then, the driver clad in brocaded clothes immediately jumped off the carriage. He then looked at Rocky, who was lying on the ground. Upon seeing that Rocky's clothes were dirty and torn, he shook his head in disdain, as if regarding Rocky as a homeless man.

"What's happening, Ramon? Why are we stopping?" A sweet and melodious voice came from the carriage behind the spiritual beast, like that of a singing lark.
