The Medallion

However, Tucker had not expected Fraser's next move. The moment the other man took office, his first order was to transfer Tucker and his army to the front line, the Heavenly Rain Valley, which was notoriously famous for being extremely difficult to defend. Various spiritual armies tended to target it and frequently attacked there, leading to countless casualties.

At that moment, Rocky, Eunice, Bertram, and three other deputy commanders were gathered in Tucker's tent.

"Damn it! I don't even know what I did to offend Fraser.

How could he transfer my army to that shitty place?"

Since he had heard about the transfer order, Tucker hadn't stopped pacing and cursing up a storm.

"That's right. How could this happen? Commander Wang won the first-class merit this time, and even if he can't be promoted to the grand commander, he shouldn't have been transferred to such a place,"

Deputy Commander Lin agreed with a peculiar expression on his face as if he too was perplexed about how this came to be.

Meanwhile, Bertram had been quiet for a while, but he suddenly recalled something from the past.

"Yeah, I can't believe it myself. But maybe it's because Spiritual King Basil offended him some time ago," he chimed in.

"It's the first time I've heard of this. How did Spiritual King Basil offend Fraser?" Tucker asked as he looked at Bertram in surprise.

"Well, you see, it happened not too long ago. Spiritual King Basil had predicted that the spiritual race army would attack the Celestial Gate Position, and he correctly surmised that the Bear Pass was just a diversion. However, Fraser didn't believe him. Nevertheless, the result was exactly what Spiritual King Basil had anticipated, which must have embarrassed Fraser. I guess Fraser harbored a grudge against Spiritual King Basil because of that!" Bertram lengthily explained.

"What? He's such a jerk!"

Tucker cursed through gritted teeth.

"It seems that this is all my fault, Commander Wang!" Hearing this, Rocky could only shake his head, as a bitter smile graced his face.

But Tucker vehemently shook his head and retorted, "Of course not! It's not your fault that Fraser is a petty brat. He never takes others seriously because he came from the Sky-suppressing Mansion. In fact, I'm sure that he only became the grand commander this time because he secretly pulled some strings."

He was infuriated, as he knew Fraser very well. He had received the first-class merit this time, which Fraser most likely took as a threat to his position. There was no doubt that Fraser had taken this opportunity to take revenge.
