"It's not difficult. I'll be back soon." After saying that, Rocky turned around and walked out of the camp. With the Earth-diving Skill, he disappeared in an instant.
It was a remarkable skill, because it could be used anywhere, no matter how heavily guarded the place was.
In less than half an hour, Rocky passed through the blockade of the army of the spiritual race and entered the defensive line of the besieged human army.
But when he got there, he found that the human army was already gone. He had expected to see a whole troop here, but there were only empty tents.
'It's strange. Where are they?' he wondered with a frown. He immediately looked around, trying to find some clues. Although the tents were all there, the soldiers of the human race who had been fighting here desperately had disappeared without a trace. There wasn't so much as a corpse in the area.
However, he soon realized that the human army had been in no hurry to escape. After all, the entire camp looked very normal, and there seemed to be no sign of a hasty retreat. Therefore, Rocky guessed that they did not want to give up on this camp.
"Are they using the empty fort strategy? They've deliberately left the camp here to distract the troops of the spiritual race when in fact, they have already retreated to other safe areas?" Rocky murmured to himself with a frown.
With that thought, he summoned Kohen to take advantage of its tracking ability to detect the traces of the human army.
Led by Kohen, Rocky headed north. Not long after, he came across a dense oasis. The moment he entered it, countless arrows suddenly shot out from all directions, quickly approaching him.
Summoning his spiritual power, Rocky swiftly formed a shield to protect his body. When the flying arrows made contact with the shield, they were directly blasted into powder.
The next moment, more than a dozen figures at level three or four of the Spirit Realm charged at him.
With a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, Rocky instantly turned into a shadow and passed through the several figures, who spontaneously froze in place.
At the same time, countless other soldiers appeared out of the thick trees and bushes nearby and surrounded Rocky.
"I'm from the rescue team. I'm on your side!" Rocky shouted, directly revealing his identity.
"What rescue team? We haven't received any news of rescue at all. You must be a spy sent by the spiritual race!" At this time, a man swaggered out of the crowd, sneering at Rocky.
Rocky took a closer look and found that the man in front of him was none other than Elliot, the one who had suddenly left the military camp before. He hadn't expected to see Elliot here.
"Elliot, don't you recognize me?" Rocky glared at Elliot.
"How could I know you? Who are you?" Rocky knew that Elliot was lying, so his eyes turned cold.
"I want to see your commander," he said stiffly.
"In your dreams. You're definitely here to assassinate our commander. Guards, take him down right now! Whoever kills him will get a great reward!" Elliot ordered at once. Obviously, he wanted to take revenge on Rocky.
Not knowing the truth, the soldiers immediately swarmed forward.
Rocky's face darkened. He hadn't expected Elliot to be so bold. However, these soldiers were no match for him. If he fought back, he would definitely hurt them beyond repair.
Therefore, he decided to frighten them away instead. His eyes widened, and an enormous aura instantly filled the air.
The soldiers couldn't resist Rocky's immense spiritual pressure. Their faces went deathly pale as they all knelt down and gasped for air.
At the same time, Rocky approached Elliot at lightning speed. Elliot, who hadn't anticipated Rocky to be more powerful than before, hurriedly retreated with a flash of panic on his face. He knew that if Rocky really attacked him, he wouldn't be able to resist.
