The Medallion

"No, I reckon it won't end well for us if we keep fighting head-on. If you trust me, I think the best chance we have of surviving this is if we retreat to the west," Rocky suddenly said as he shook his head.

"Isn't the west a dead end?" Vivian asked after she took a glance at the direction.

"Since the topographic map was drawn by the reconnaissance team while they were trapped in an illusion, it can't be accurate! If my guess is correct, that dead-end is likely to be the real exit. Come on, let's give it a shot! Even if I'm wrong, we'll be in a better position to fend off the attacks since we can fix our defensive ranks there. It's miles better than the current situation we're in..." Rocky analyzed calmly.

Upon hearing his words, Vivian found herself staring at Rocky in awe. She didn't expect he would be so level headed while in such a dangerous situation. It was apparent this wasn't his first time staring at death's doors.

Speechless, Valeria also had her eyes locked on Rocky.

"Miss Vivian, we don't have much time." While they were lost in thought, the Diabolic Flaming Wolves had slowly crept up on them, ready to pounce at any moment.

"Everyone, listen to me. Move to the west." After taking everything into consideration, Vivian knew she had no better choice than to trust Rocky's decision.

As soon as they heard her command, the troops wasted no time and began marching westwards.

A calm breeze greeted them when they arrived at the west side of the valley, lifting their spirits.

"There's wind!" Vivian's beautiful eyes immediately lit up since it meant that they were heading in the right direction.

"Sure enough, we are still trapped in the illusory trick," Rocky murmured as he narrowed his eyes.

As soon as she heard this, Vivian instantly unleashed a stream of her spiritual power, breaking the illusory scene in front of them, revealing a fork road ahead.
