The Medallion

Chapter 1968 Wait Together

"Because of the severity of the previous fire that scorched the valley, I can say that almost all the soldiers suffered from injured throats, lungs and spleens. Moreover, the damage to their throats could not be cured in such a short period of time. Hence, I guess that they just have an illusion that they feel thirsty," Rocky explained.

"Ha! How do I know that you're not making this thing up? Do you have any evidence to support your claim?" Zain felt very suspicious and didn't take Rocky's words seriously.

"Not a problem. You can ask several medics to examine the throats of the soldiers. I'm sure that after they checked their condition, we shall see whether I'm telling the truth or not," Rocky said confidently.

Hearing this, Zain's brows raised, and he quickly signaled Adrian to let the medics examine the soldiers. Immediately after, Adrian walked out of the camp to do what he was told.

Then, about fifteen minutes later, Adrian came back. He directly walked towards the prince and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing Adrian's report, Zain revealed a frown. It seemed that Rocky was telling the truth. They random checked a few soldiers and all their throats were indeed injured to some degree. Moreover, according to the medics, the hot weather also contributed to the illusion that made the soldiers desperately yearn for water.

"Fine. Since there is no problem with the water, I will let this matter go." Although Zain was quite disappointed, he had to stop blaming Rocky without any clear evidence against him. After all, he could not make trouble for Rocky and Gilbert if they were really innocent. Most importantly, the army of the royal family had suffered heavy casualties this time, so he was in dire need of military support. The prince knew that the army of the Ghost Fief was powerful enough to subjugate Enoch's soldiers before, so he needed them all the more right now.

"Prince Zain, our defeat in this battle made a huge blow to the morale of our army. I think it's necessary for us to reconsider some of our strategies and plans," Adrian proposed thoughtfully.

"I know. Does any commander here have a brilliant idea?" Zain immediately looked around, still feeling a bit irritated.

However, at this time, all the commanders suddenly lowered their heads. It was obvious that they were afraid to take on such a huge responsibility. After all, there was a great chance of them dying in the battlefield.

"Nobody? Good-for-nothing bums! You should be ashamed of yourselves!" Zain snapped when no one dared to speak a word.

"Calm down, Your Royal Highness. I might have an idea." Finally, Gilbert spoke up.
