Chapter 496 He's A Spy

"You might've owed Rocky a lot for saving you. But your virginity, Isis? What on earth would convince you to…" Lance suddenly asked Isis with a strange expression. He was beginning to sense something.

"I… Father, please. Stop asking these ridiculous questions. You know that Rocky was unjustly accused. He has done nothing wrong. Besides, I've already uncovered the spy sent by the Timber Deity Empire. He's been hiding in the Crimson Dragon Army for a long time. If he hadn't set any traps, I would've never been given any clues to unravel his true identity. He was the spy who sent me the fake message that led me to the Mount Clouds," Isis explained to her father.

"Who was it?" Lance asked, visibly irritated and angered. Rocky, as it turned out, was not the guy to be blamed.

"It was Dunn," Isis confirmed.

"Dunn? But why?" Lance inquired in confusion. Dunn had recently been promoted to Frontline Commander due to his high reputation. He had gone through all the necessary background checks and examinations, so there was no reason to believe he could be a traitor. However, Lance also knew that Isis would never lie to him on such an important matter. If she was right, then the Crimson Dragon Army was inevitably in danger. Being a Frontline Commander, Dunn was aware of the military secrets and all the attack plans they had. No wonder they couldn't defeat the Timber Deity Empire even after many days' fierce battles!

"Didn't Rocky tell you? He knew about it, as well." Surprised at her father's reaction, Isis began to wonder why Rocky didn't tell her father first.

"All he asked of me was to find Dunn and confront him. He never told me Dunn was a traitor. As far as I know, Dunn was injured several days ago and returned to the main camp for treatment." Lance shook his head after his reveal.

"Then why didn't you listen to him?" Isis asked with a frown.

"It was my fault. I didn't take Rocky's word seriously. He never told me Dunn was a spy. My judgment was clouded because of what he did to you." Like his daughter, Lance's face darkened at the realization. His impulsive tendencies had gotten the better of him and led him to blame everything on Rocky and send him away to the logistics camp.

"Father, you have to hurry and send out the order for Dunn's arrest to the main camp immediately! However, I'm afraid he's already left since my return." Isis hurried her steps. Even if the chances of Dunn still being in the camp were slim, they could still catch him if Lance just sent out the order. That would give Rocky enough time to confront Dunn.

"I know. But you should get some rest. I'll deal with it." Lance nodded before comforting Isis as best as he could. There was no turning back now. All that remained was to m

" said Lance. Lance began to comfort his daughter.

Isis knew that Sheridan was experienced in healing various spirit-manipulated beasts. He'd surely help Silver Wind get better in no time.

Meanwhile, Sabina had just realized that Rocky was nowhere to be found the next morning. Sabina had looked for him multiple times at the logistics camp but to no avail.

"Where on earth has he gone?" Sabina stared at the ground, exhausted from her search. Yesterday, she promised Marin that she would keep a close eye on him. Now Rocky was gone without a trace! How would she explain this to Marin and the Commander in Chief?

"When I find you Rocky, I'll make you wish you never left!" sworn Sabina. Wasting not a single second more, Sabina left the logistics camp quickly.

Not far from the logistics camp, in a hidden forest, multiple trees were being cut down and dragged into a Magic Spiritual Space.

Somewhere within the Magic Spiritual Space, three Dark Heaven Insects were busy pulling those trees into their designated positions.

Rocky was keeping himself busy by processing some trees in his Magic Spiritual Space. Currently, he was in front of a building that began to take shape. This would soon be the laboratory that he had designed earlier.

Rocky had planned on building a joint experiment base with various facilities—a huge project that would consume a lot of his time. Up until now, he had only figured out the facility sizes along with some preliminary construction in his Magic Spiritual Space. This was going to take a while.

His top priority at the moment was the laboratory. He needed to finish this first before continuing with his gene research. Although he tried his best to hide it, he was ecstatic that Lance had relocated him to the logistics camp. This gave him more time to do what he needed to do.
