Chapter 604 There Are Reasons

The Commanders looked at each other in dismay upon hearing that. After all, they had never seen Rocky ever since the Timber Deity Empire had withdrawn their army. While they thought of this in their heads, they all turned their gaze at Sabina. They assumed she must know where Rocky was.

Upon noticing everyone's attention was on her, Sabina said coldly, "I don't know where he is." When Rocky knew that she was Marcia's disciple, he had lost his temper and left. Since then, she hadn't seen him, and it had been two days and one night. She had gone to the Isis Pavilion to look for him, only for Sue to tell her that she had not seen him anywhere around that area.

"Forget it. I'll go and look for him later." Lance waved his hand, looked at Allen and continued, "Thanks for your help. I appreciate it. If it weren't for you, the Evian City might have lost this battle."

"I don't deserve all this credit. In fact, I should give my utmost thanks to the Commanders and the Evian City guards. Without them defending the city to the last extent and waiting until the reinforcements' arrival, I wouldn't have been able to turn the tables regardless of my strength," Allen said humbly.

"To be frank, this would have never happened if it weren't for Commander Rocky. We would have already lost the Evian City without him," Commander Wang added. "By the way, Commander in Chief, this Crimson Dragon Token..." Afterwards, he took out the Crimson Dragon Token from his pocket and handed it to Lance with both of his hands.

"Hasn't Rocky accepted the Crimson Dragon Token?" Lance asked as he was shocked upon seeing the Crimson Dragon Token.

"No. He hasn't." Commander Wang shook his head in disappointment.

Lance frowned, putting away the Crimson Dragon Token.

"But Commander in Chief, Rocky has made great contributions this time. Shouldn't you reward him well and better?" Commander Ron suddenly asked out of concern.

"Of course I will!" Lance nodded his head. This time, he knew that Rocky had made great contributions not only to the Crimson Dragon Group, but also to the whole Holy Dragon Empire.

"But I'm afraid that he won't accept it. Don't forget that he has already said before that he helped us protect the Evian City not for the sake of the Crimson Dragon Army, but because he didn't want to see the Evian City citizens become poor and homeless. That was the only reason why he took action," said Marin, as her eyes turned dark.

Upon hearing that, the other Commanders in the ro

o completely suppress the remaining thousands of soldiers of the Timber Deity Empire. Perhaps if I caught the prince, it would be able to force his soldiers to retreat. But if it were the opposite and his soldiers fought to the death, things would have become worse. Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary injury, I allowed the prince to retreat and bring the army with him," Allen pointed out. In theory, even if he didn't kill the prince of the Timber Deity Empire at that moment, he should have caught the prince first. But he thought that the Timber Deity Empire still had nearly four thousand soldiers, which was why he decided to let the prince go according to the chaotic situation at hand. Of course, if the prince of the Timber Deity Empire were to persist in willfully and arbitrarily, he would definitely not show any mercy. It could be said that he let go of the prince of the Timber Deity Empire only for the sake of the entire situation—he knew that he had to protect the Evian City first.

But in fact, Allen had another personal reason to let the prince of the Timber Deity Empire go. Three years ago, he had sneaked into the royal palace of the Timber Deity Empire for a mission in which he had been discovered after a while. He could have been able to escape with his strength, but unfortunately, he encountered a mysterious woman who was much stronger than him. He fought with the woman, but he sustained some serious injuries. However, that mysterious woman did not kill him, nor took him back for interrogation, but released him somehow. Later on, he knew that the mysterious woman he met was none other than the princess of the Timber Deity Empire, Alyssa.
