Chapter 1384 The Division Of Forces

The next day, while Rocky was discussing with Marcia and Bryant about the attack on the Imperial City,
Sabina walked inside in a hurry.

"Basil, Master! Come out and take a look at this!" she bellowed angrily.

Rocky, Marcia and Bryant rushed outside. Isis and the others were there, looking in the same direction
as Sabina. The three followed their gaze into the distance and saw several heads hanging on the wall
of the Imperial City, laid to public display.

"What the hell! Who are those people?" Rocky asked furiously.

"I have already sent someone to investigate it," Sabina replied immediately.

Rocky nodded, and they waited in silence.

Not long after, the spirit manipulators who had been sent out to investigate came back, looking
displeased. The identities of the owners of those heads surprised everyone, including Rocky. They
were famous figures in the Holy Dragon Empire. They had been unfortunately caught while covering
Bryant and Lena's escape along with a few elders of the royal family. There had been no news of them
until now.

Their heads were hung for everyone to see, an obvious warning from Alston.

"Alston! That annoying bastard!"

"What a cruel, merciless beast!"

"A few other elders of the royal family are still in his capture. It could be their heads next."

For the next couple of minutes, the base camp of the United Army was in an angry uproar.



"Basil, the queen and the imperial preceptor of the Magic Phoenix Empire are also Alston's prisoners,"
Marcia reminded.

"I'm aware. I plan to send a team to rescue them and Alyssa while we attack the Imperial City." Rocky
was already formulating a plan in his head.

"But who will lead them? Chief Bryant will be in charge of the overall situation of the army, and I need to
be with you," Marcia asked.

"I'll go!" Cherry volunteered.

"Your clan? Good. The Butterfly Divine Clan will be responsible for launching an attack from the west
city gate, and the Dragon Master Clan will take care of the east city gate. This way, we can avoid direct
confrontation with the enemy's spiritual race army, and also create enough chaos to attract the enemy
troops away from the city." Rocky nodded thoughtfully. Since the Phoenix Master Clan hadn't arrived
yet, and there was no news from the Wood Clan, it would be wise to preserve the strength of the
Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan before they got into the final fight with Alston.

Two-thirds of the United Army and the spirit manipulator group gathered at the north city gate, ready to
attack with all their might. After the successful ambush at the north gate, the Butterfly Divine Clan and
the Dragon Master Clan would break through the west and east gate respectively, creating major chaos
so as to catch the attention of Alston's partial forces.

Just as Rocky was about to give the order to attack, a woman in white suddenly appeared in front of
him and handed him a parchment of a drawing.

"Prince Crimson, Her Royal Highness gave me orders to hand this over to you when you attack the
Imperial City if I didn't hear from her," the woman said.

"Alyssa?" Rocky was a little surprised, but he quickly studied the drawing and his eyes narrowed.



The map indicated the distribution of all the forces in the Imperial City and the Palace City. The
deployment of the Imperial City garrison was crystal clear in the drawing.

Even without this drawing, it wouldn't have been difficult for Rocky to break through the Imperial City.
However, with this new information, they could get twice the result with half the effort, and Rocky could
lead his troops directly into the Palace City.

He gave the order to attack. The United Army, furious like a tidal wave, launched the attack on the
north gate of the Imperial City with overwhelming momentum.

The battleground was fierce and dust and sand rose in the air. The Imperial City garrison tried their
very best to prevent the United Army from approaching the city wall.

However, due to the advantage in numbers, no matter how solid the defense of the garrison was, it was
impossible for them to withstand the continuous attacks of the United Army.

Before long, thousands of soldiers led by Isis and Sabina rushed towards the city wall under the
protection of the spirit manipulator group. The large troop of the United Army climbed the city wall and
killed the guards on top of it.

There were corpses all over the ground, and blood flowed like red rivers in all directions.

Soon, the surviving soldiers of the Imperial City fled and the United Army occupied the north gate in
less than a day.

But the replenished garrison returned with five hundred members of the spiritual race, and they
reached a stalemate with the United Army at the north gate.

Since the United Army had already occupied the city wall, Rocky asked Isis and Sabina to lead a troop
of fifty thousand to suppress the enemy's reinforcements. He himself led the remaining hundred-



thousand to the Palace City, along with Marcia.

Meanwhile, the two gates in the east and west of the city were still under the constant attack of the
Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan. The city was in complete chaos, and the troops
easily captured the gates. Soon, they broke through the two gates and quickly approached the Palace
City from both sides.

On the other side, although the enemy troops continued to intercept Rocky all the way, because he had
the troop distribution map, he cleverly used the terrain of the Imperial City to move forward without
trouble. Not only did he avoid direct confrontation with the enemy, but also kept approaching the
Imperial City at incredible speed.

Not long after, Rocky and Marcia led the troop of a hundred thousand soldiers to the Palace City.

Around twenty thousand enemies swarmed over from all directions to surround them.

However, Marcia was quick to react. She summoned the Holy-blood Dragon King and broke the gate of
the Palace City with ease. The soldiers rushed into the Palace City like a tsunami wave, crushing
everything and everyone in their path.

"Shirley, Lucilla! I'll leave forty thousand men with you. Guard the gate!" Rocky said to the two women.

"Forty thousand? Give us four thousand, and we can still guard the gate well for you. You go and kill
that Alston for us!" Shirley said proudly.

Of course, Rocky couldn't leave them with only four thousand soldiers. After splitting forty thousand
with them, he and Marcia rushed into the Palace City with the remaining sixty thousand.

According to the military distribution map given by Alyssa, Alston had deployed thirty thousand soldiers
in the Palace City. Logically, the chances of winning were very high for their sixty thousand versus



Alston's thirty thousand. But that was only based on the military numbers. However, within the Palace
City, Alston had deployed more than two thousand members of the Glory Clan and had also set up
many checkpoints. Obviously, he was well prepared for Rocky's attack.

A fierce battle was inevitable.

Soon, the sixty thousand United Army led by Rocky and Marcia reached the main path leading to the
Spiritual King Hall, which was guarded by three hundred members of the spiritual race and thousands
of other soldiers.

In order to avoid a long battle, Rocky further divided his forces to pin down the enemy from all sides. At
the same time, he continued to move towards the Spiritual King Hall.
