The Medallion

"The troop of the spiritual race is far more powerful than we are, and it's not possible for us to break out of the prison using force. Therefore, our only chance is to make a feint to the east by creating a diversion in the west. Once they are distracted, we will take the opportunity to escape!" Rocky explained in a low voice.

"We're going to make a feint to the east but attack in the west? Are you kidding, Spiritual King Basil? How do you plan on doing all of this?" Deputy Commander Ma said. His face darkened because it sounded like Rocky was just joking.

"There's no need to worry. I've figured all of this out. Now, let's choose the route that we will use to retreat," Rocky replied, turning and drawing a simple topographic map on the ground that included what he could remember from his journey.

"The troop of the spiritual race used the precipice to the west of the Crescent Gorge and this cluster of rocks to set up this camp. With the way that the terrain is laid out, it makes it easy to defend and difficult to attack. So if we can escape from the camp, it will not be easy for them to catch up to us, especially under the dark of night."

"But with so many people fleeing at once, it will be easy to pursue us," Eunice worried aloud.

"Yes. That's why we have to divide into three groups. One will be led by Deputy Commander Ma and they will go to the south. One will be led by you and they will go to the east. The rest will be led by Kye and will go to the north. Once we lose the pursuers, all three groups will meet at this place!" Rocky said, pointing at a position on the topographic map.

"What about you, Rocky?" Eunice asked, furrowing her eyebrows at the seemingly gaping hole in his plan.

"I'll stay here to cover for you in case you need to retreat," Rocky replied.

"What? You are going to cover for us by yourself? It's too dangerous," Deputy Commander Ma said. Some admiration still poured over him because he hadn't pegged Rocky for the type to sacrifice himself to cover for someone else.

"Yes, it's too risky. I will stay with you," Eunice said immediately.

"I can do it alone. Besides, if you stay, who will lead the second group?" Rocky shook his head and narrowed his eyes.
