The Medallion

Fortunately, Kye failed his attempt to frame Rocky up this time. But somehow, there was a sudden change in his attitude and no one knew what caused it. Although he still didn't get along well with Rocky, he did not try to make trouble for him anymore.

Meanwhile, about half a month had already passed.

The spearhead, who had gone on patrol to the front line half a month earlier, had been completely out of touch. Nobody knew what exactly happened, so Tucker immediately summoned the other two deputy commanders, as well as some military officials, including Rocky, to discuss the current situation.

"Three days had already passed since Deputy Commander Ma last reported. The only reason I can think of is that they are in a troubling situation right now. With that, I want to send a strong team to investigate what happened. Who would like to volunteer for this task?" Tucker asked with hints of anxiety on his face.

Hearing this, all of the people present, including the two deputy commanders, could not help but look at each other.

"I am willing to lead the team that you will be sending." Bertram spoke up after a while. He was the first one to volunteer for the task.

After that, several other warriors also started expressing their willingness to carry out the task.

"Commander Wang, I would also like to volunteer to be a part of the investigating team," Rocky insisted. Since Eunice was part of the spearheading team led by Deputy Commander Ma, Rocky was worried about her safety, so he could not just stand idly and do nothing.

"Basil, I appreciate the gesture, but you've been in the army for such a short time. You should not be that familiar with the terrain of the front line area yet. It's best if we let Bertram go," Tucker said after contemplating for a while.

"Commander, I could sense that there is something fishy with the sudden disappearance of Deputy Commander Ma and the members of the spearhead. I'm afraid that this is some kind of trap. The three deputy commanders are your best helpers. Now that Deputy Commander Ma is missing, I think it will be a bad idea if you also let Deputy Commander Fei go to the front line. If something terrible suddenly happened here in the Tiger Whisker Pass, it will be difficult if just you and Deputy Commander Lin will handle the situation. I don't think it will be a huge problem if I am not that familiar with the terrain of the front line area. As long as the other members are familiar with it, the whole team will be just fine," Rocky explained as he tried to convince Tucker.
