The Medallion novel Chapter 1829

"By the way, what have you gained from your trip to the spiritual race, Chief Colton?" Rocky asked immediately, eager to hear what the chief would say.

"Obviously they don't want to join hands with us in a fight against the Shura Race. Humph, I reckon it's because the Shura Race is only sending their troops to the human race, so the spiritual race doesn't see the need to preemptively participate in the war." Colton breathed a troubled sigh.

"That's just as I expected. Have you made preparations for the war?" Rocky asked.

"I've already met the leaders of the Sky-suppressing Mansion and the Sovereign Pavilion. This time, they are willing to do their best to help our Di Clan. After all, winning the war would ensure the survival of the human race," Colton replied.

"That's good. Before we left the Shura Race, we learned that they already sent out a spearhead. I reckon they've already reached the border," Rocky reported. He had collected a lot of valuable intel while he had been in the Shura Race.

"Yes. I heard from the frontier yesterday that the spearhead of the Shura Race has arrived," Colton added with a solemn nod.

"Then who will be the commander in chief of our human army this time?" Rocky asked again.

"We haven't settled it yet. Hey, since you're back, why don't you be the commander in chief?" A light bulb went on in Colton's head. In his eyes, there was no one more suitable than Rocky to lead the human race through war.

"I'll take a pass on that one. I'm more suited to be a hero behind the scenes. I don't want to be the commander in chief. I'm actually planning to form an army of my own," Rocky revealed a plan of his own.

"Your own army?" Colton glanced at Rocky in confusion.

"That's right. I have two reasons why I came back this time. One is to help the human race fight against the Shura Race, and the other is to destroy Prince Zain's plan. As long as he fails his mission to defeat the human race, he won't be qualified to inherit the title of king of the Shura Race," Rocky explained.

"I see. What's your plan then?" A feeling of relief washed over Colton's tired body when he heard of Rocky's plan. He believed that the Shura Race wouldn't succeed as long as Rocky was by the human race's side.

"I want to rescue the Spiritual Emperors I trust. In addition, I also want an army filled with well-trained and trustable soldiers familiar with mysterious military skills," Rocky said as he spoke out his plan.

"No problem. But which Spiritual Emperors do you want to recruit?" Colton asked.

"I will give you a list of names later, Chief Colton."

"Okay. You should rest first. You must be tired from such a long journey. I'll have someone arrange a place for you in the meantime." Colton called the steward and gave him some orders.

He then ordered some members of the Di Clan to take Rocky and Esteban into a wing house to rest while Eunice returned to her place.

Rocky spent the next few days coming up with a plan for his independent army according to the distribution of troops in the front line.

After getting the list of names from Rocky, Colton wasted no time recruiting the Spiritual Emperors. Among the notable names were Michelle, Carla, Lilith, and Moore, all of whom stood out during the Spiritual Emperor Contest.

The Spiritual Emperors arrived at the Di Clan one after another without knowing why they were summoned.

When everyone finally arrived, Colton asked them to gather at the training ground.

"Spiritual Emperors, you must be wondering why I summoned you here," Colton said as he looked around the Spiritual Emperors.

"Does Chief Colton have any special task for us?" a Spiritual Emperor asked his companion in a low voice.

"Maybe he wants one of us to lead the army."

The Spiritual Emperors looked at each other in disbelief. Who would have thought that Rocky was the great hero of the human race?

"I trust him with my life!" Colton said with certainty.

"Chief Colton, even so, at least let us know the plan against the Shura Race!" another Spiritual Emperor suggested.

Colton cast a glance at Rocky.

"That plan is currently confidential. I'm not forcing you to join me; you're free to leave anytime if you don't want to stay," Rocky answered as he waved he hand.

The Spiritual Emperors once again looked at each other as they tried to figure out what to do. There must be another reason why Colton trusted him so much. With a war pending to start at any moment, all of them were eager to help the human race. What was more, if they helped win the war, their prestige in the Ethereal Region would surely improve.

"I am willing to join you." Of course, there were also those who expressed their support for Rocky, such as Carla, who was the first one to join him.

"Me too." Lilith followed immediately.

Several other Spiritual Emperors also followed and raised their hands to show their willingness to join Rocky's independent army.

But still, most of them were hesitant.

"I'll join too." Out of the blue, Michelle also raised her hand.

"Michelle, what are you doing?" Holden didn't expect this and felt as if he was being betrayed.
