The Medallion

"If you trust me, you won’t have to worry about fighting the spiritual beasts, Commander Ling. If the spiritual race decides to attack the camp, you just need to follow the usual strategy," Rocky said calmly.

"But how are we going to deal with the spiritual beasts?" Commander Ling asked, still doubtful of the young man's plan. He obviously didn't understand what the latter meant.

"I'll handle them. I have my own way of dealing with those spiritual beasts," Rocky replied with much confidence.

"Spiritual King Basil, but you have to tell me the way first, right?" Commander Ling was rightfully worried about leaving his troops' faith to the young man.

"I'm sorry but the plan won't work if I tell you. Besides, we have to be wary of our surroundings. After all, these walls are paper-thin." Rocky had a hunch that spies from the spiritual race littered among the army of the western region.

Being kept in the dark didn't help with Commander Ling's growing anxiety. He was still on the edge whether or not he should truly trust the man before him.

"What are you waiting for? Go ahead and do your work, Commander Ling!" With that, Rocky turned around and left.

Commander Ling could only watch as Rocky left, shaking his head in dismay. Shortly after, he summoned the three deputy commanders of the western region army to discuss their strategy, along with Rocky's plan.

"Commander Ling, do you really want us to do nothing and just put all of our faith in Spiritual King Basil?" one of the deputy commanders asked in disbelief.

"We don't even know the guy’s background. I'm afraid we can’t risk the lives of our troops by just letting him deal with the spiritual beasts alone!" another deputy commander added.

"Commander Ling, please think twice before you do as he says. After all, he is working for Tucker. Don't forget that he is also vying for the position of grand commander. If you allow his man to deal with this problem, he'll surely take the credit for himself. That will be very disadvantageous to you, Commander Ling."

The three deputy commanders were all weary of Rocky. They all tried their best to sway Commander Ling’s decision since they did not trust him.
