Before long, the two opposing armies had reached a stalemate and couldn't push past the opening in the city wall. The spiritual race's army had managed to rely on their military superiority alone.
However, in Rocky's eyes, this was just the beginning. Having surrounded and killed so many spirit warriors from the spiritual race had boosted the morale of his surprise attack troops. In addition, the city wall had been broken. Now they had found the momentum they needed to keep fighting.

Those one thousand soldiers would have to take the initiative to attack the enemy forces in order to attract their attention. Thus, it was a very dangerous task.
"Let me do it!" Maxwell said, stepping out first.
"Me too!"
"I will do it!"
"And me!"
Before long, several soldiers had volunteered. They all faced death calmly. They were all men of iron.
In a short amount of time, over a thousand soldiers had volunteered to join the battle.
"Thank you for your support, guys. I will try my best to protect you!" Rocky promised.
"Basil, what do you need me to do?" All of a sudden, Tucker felt small. It now seemed like Rocky was the leader of the army, even though he was the real commander.
