Marcia and Bryant quickly assembled the army. They brought enough food and then moved towards
the border of the Holy Dragon Empire at their fastest speed.
At the same time, Rocky immediately sent a message to the Dragon Master Clan, Butterfly Divine Clan,
and the Phoenix Master Clan. He asked the three clans to get ready to meet him as soon as possible.
He also sent a message to the Wood Clan and told them about Alyssa's situation, hoping that the clan
could also support them.
Besides that, he specially instructed the Phoenix Master Clan and Butterfly Divine Clan to bring their
own legendary guardian beasts to join the coming battle. He specifically asked Moira to bring along
Harriet who had the Snow Master Clan's legendary guardian beast.
Lastly, he summoned the legendary guardian beast of the Water Master Clan. Before all this happened,
he left the beast to recuperate in the Crimson City. After the Genome Research Institute was relocated,
Sheridan found another quiet place for the beast to heal. So, Rocky ordered his people to send a
secret letter to Sheridan, asking him to bring the beast to him as soon as possible.
In addition to the four guardian beasts, Marcia and Alyssa also had each of their own guardian beast.
So, Rocky already had six powerful beasts on his side. By then, Alston would definitely ask the two
legendary guardian beasts of the Ghost Master Clan and Giants Clan to help him. If Holy Lord brought
the legendary guardian beast of the Thunder Master Clan, then the nine legendary beasts would finally
be complete. If that happened, it would be easy to gather the other half of the Divine Spiritual Source.
Of course, no one knew what would really happen once the battle broke out. The only thing they could
do was remain calm to adjust with the changing situation.
Before gathering the Divine Spiritual Source, Rocky and his men must defeat Alston and Wraith King
Sebastian first. Otherwise, the latter two might seize the opportunity to get the Divine Spiritual Source.
So, Rocky still had a long way to go before he successfully finished his mission. Not only did he need
to defeat Alston, who was a big threat to both humans and the spiritual race, but also gather the
complete Divine Spiritual Source to deal with the nine calamity beasts that were temporarily trapped by
Holy Lord. If he made even the smallest mistake, all his previous efforts would be totally wasted.
Since it was all up to him to make this plan a success, Rocky was definitely under a great pressure
A few days later, the United Army, formed by the two famous big shots of the Wild Spirit Land, Bryant
and Marcia, as well as the spirit manipulator legion led by the powerful masters at the Divine Stage like
Elvis, and the several powerful women including Isis, marched to the border of the Holy Dragon
Empire. Soon, they arrived at the defensive line of the joint forces which had a fatal weakness
according to Alyssa.
When they arrived, Rocky quickly deployed his troops and executed the attacking plan. Taking
advantage of the fatal weakness left by Alyssa, he easily broke through the defense line of Alston's
joint forces in less than two days. After they broke through, they immediately besieged the Imperial
City.
When Alston learned that the United Army had broken through the unbreakable front that Alyssa built,
he became exasperated and suspected that Alyssa must have plot something against him. So, he
immediately gathered the surrounding forces to resist the United Army.
But the United Army aggressively worked together this time and was totally unstoppable.
In less than three days, the United Army had already besieged the Imperial City.
However, Alston had already accumulated tens of thousands of soldiers in the Imperial City. Besides
that, there were also as many as three thousand soldiers from the Glory Army. Needless to say, they
were also prepared in their own way. Thus, it was almost impossible for the United Army to break
through in such a short time, unless Rocky's army got the support of the Dragon Master Clan, Butterfly
Divine Clan, Phoenix Master Clan, and Wood Clan.
Just when the United Army broke through the defense, they received both good and bad news. The
good news was that the reinforcements of the Dragon Master Clan and Butterfly Divine Clan would
arrive soon, but the bad news was that the Phoenix Master Clan's arrival was delayed because they
encountered the enemy's roadblock. Now that the war was imminent, there was no room for delay. The
war's situation could instantly change, especially now that Alston had gathered all his troops back to
the Holy Dragon Empire. It wouldn't be long now before they launch their attacks against the
encirclement of the United Army.
"We don't have the time to wait for the Phoenix Master Clan. We must attack the city at once..." In the
United Army's camp, Rocky looked around the people in front of him and finally decided.
At that moment, besides Bryant, Marcia, Isis and other female commanders, Moira and Cherry were
also there.
This time, the Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan brought one thousand members and
five hundred members, respectively. The Dragon Master Clan brought with them three elders and
twenty ordinary spiritual beings. Meanwhile, the Butterfly Divine Clan brought two elders, including
Kayla, as well as five ordinary spiritual beings. They were all trying their best to support the United
Army. After all, they knew that the Wild Spirit Land would never be in peace unless Alston was
defeated.
Meanwhile, the Imperial City was already heavily guarded with thousands of men stationed in their
respective posts.
Alston's face looked a little pale while he was listening to the intelligence of the United Army in the
Spiritual King Hall. The number of the United Army was far more than the Imperial City's garrison. Even
though he had the Glory Army which had more than three thousand members of the spiritual race, he
was afraid that he was at a disadvantage because of the large number of men from the United Army.
Of course, Alston knew that this was only temporary. The United Army would be trapped like a fish in a
net if he could delay them for a few more days. If he could successfully delay them, the United Army
would have nowhere to escape since he had already called back his men from the Magic Phoenix
Empire and the Timber Deity Empire. So, he was not worried about the United Army. Besides, his Glory
Army had more than three thousand soldiers. It was more than enough to block the United Army. His
only worry was that Rocky might have some tricks up his sleeve.
"Strengthen the vigilance of the whole Imperial City. Don't let the United Army have any chance to plot
against us. Send five hundred Glory Army members to patrol within fifty meters around the Imperial
City day and night. Anyone who gets close to the Imperial City will be killed without any hesitation!
Understood?" Alston firmly ordered Dean.
"Yes, Your Majesty, understood." Dean nodded immediately at this, but then added, "The United Army
is putting all their eggs in one basket this time. Obviously, they want to fight against us to the death. In
that case, why don't we attack first? Even if the United Army has millions of soldiers, it would be difficult
for them to resist the Glory Army's strength..."
"We are in no rush! We have to be careful and precise in our every move. I want Basil to be alone and
completely helpless in the end of this war. If that happens, he will have no choice but to kneel in front of
me and beg. If we attack now, what if the United Army suddenly escape without even fighting? That
would be very boring!" Alston arrogantly said. But in fact, he was afraid of Rocky to some extent and
because of that, he decided to guard the Imperial City with all his might.
Dean was already aware of Alston's fear, but he didn't point it out. He then suggested, "We still have
some people who are useful to us such as the royal elders of the Holy Dragon Empire, as well as some
slightly famous people who didn't want to submit to us before, like the queen and imperial preceptor of
the Magic Phoenix Empire, and Alyssa... Should we make good use of them now?"
"That's actually a good idea. You can kill some insignificant people first and hang their heads on the
city wall. Let the United Army see what will happen if they don't obey me!" Alston ordered as he burst
out into an evil laugh.
With that, Dean left to carry out the order.
