The Medallion

Chapter 1056 Considerable Resources

"Baby, your father saved us." Isis smiled gently at the infant lying next to her. "When you grow up, you're going to be just like him..."

"Should we give him a name?" Marin asked excitedly as she thought it was time to give the baby a name.

Everyone exchanged glances before turning to stare at the baby's father.

"Who, me? I'm worried I won't think of a good name for him." Feeling everyone's eyes on him, Rocky smiled hesitantly. He had never named anyone before.

"You are his father. Of course you should be the one to name him! If you don't want the baby, I can take him," Marin grumbled under her breath.

"Then, we will call him... Nigel," Rocky said with a grin after thinking for a while.

"Nigel? What a strange name. I don't think it's a bad name, but it does sound a bit strange..." Sabina said, scratching her chin lightly.

"Yeah, why not change it?" Marin chipped in.

As the baby's grandfather, Lance had no objections. He was happy enough to see that his daughter and grandson were fine.

"Let's use the name given by Basil. I think it's a good name!" Isis knew that the name Rocky suggested must be meaningful, and she really liked it. It reminded her fondly of the past.

"Well, little Nigel, it's time for us to leave! Let's leave your parents alone." With that, Marin held up Nigel gently and motioned for Sabina and Lance to follow suit.

Soon, Rocky and Isis were left alone.

"You are about to meet Alston, aren't you?" Isis asked, her voice filled with concern.

Rocky nodded slightly, unable to meet her gaze.

"Don't worry about me and Nigel. Just do what you need to do, but don't you dare leave us alone," Isis said wistfully. She knew that the battle between Rocky and Alston was going to be fierce, so she was worried that Rocky might get distracted because of them. Thus, she tried to ease Rocky into thinking they would be fine without him for a while.

"You are the second woman who has made me feel guilty," Rocky said bitterly. "No matter what, I will take good care of you and our child—I will not leave you alone." His love for Isis might not have been as strong as Isis' love for him, but Isis had suffered so much for him without regret, so he knew that she deserved his care and love.

"The second one?" Isis raised an eyebrow. "Then, the first one must be the holy maiden, right? Something must have happened between you and her... She doesn't know you are still alive. If she finds out, she will be very happy..." From the sadness that Lena showed after Rocky's death, Isis knew that something must have happened between them.

"I hope to see Lena as soon as possible. However, Alston has an ulterior motive for Lena. He also knows that Lena is very important to me, so for her own safety, I have to defeat Alston first. If I meet her now, I will only put her in danger," Rocky explained, sighing heavily.

"I don't think there is anything you can't do," Isis said firmly, clasping Rocky's hands tightly.

"Rest well." Rocky kissed Isis' forehead gently and watched her close her eyes. Then, when he knew she was fast asleep, he stood up and left.

The next day, Lucilla, who had been gone for half a month, returned to the base camp with new information.

In Lance's study, they had gathered to hear her report.

"According to the information collected by Laney, Alston sent a strong team of spirit manipulators to the Magic Phoenix Empire a month ago. It seems he is looking for something," Lucilla said, studying the expressions of those before her.

"Do you know what he's looking for?" Rocky asked, frowning slightly.

"No, but it must be something very important. Otherwise, he wouldn't send out three peerless masters at the Divine Stage, eight masters at the Supernal Stage, and a group of spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage," Lucilla replied gravely.

"What could he be looking for... To have sent such a powerful team of spirit manipulators..." Lance mumbled. From experience, he knew Alston must be looking for something that was very important to the Holy Dragon Empire, otherwise he wouldn't go through such lengths.

"Lucilla, does my master have any instructions?" Sabina asked Lucilla. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

"General Marcia said it depends on Prince Basil's decision," she answered, shooting a glance towards Rocky.

Lance and the others also turned to look at Rocky.

"Alston's actions may be under the orders of the Dragon Master Clan, and what he is looking for is definitely not an ordinary thing," Rocky said carefully. In fact, he had already guessed something.

"Lucilla, where is the spirit manipulator team heading towards?" Rocky suddenly asked.

"The Nine-phoenix Demonic Land. It is a supernatural place that's as dangerous as the Hell of Dragon Fang," Lucilla replied.

"It seems that I must go with you," Lance said immediately, standing up suddenly.

"I don't know how long it will take this time. Moreover, Isis is still recuperating. Father, don't go with us. And besides, with you here, I won't have to worry about Isis and the baby," Rocky said after thinking for a while.

"But it's too dangerous if it's just you three," Lance said worriedly.

"I heard that my uncle is in the Magic Phoenix Empire now. Maybe we can ask him to join us," Sabina suddenly said, eyes flashing excitedly.

"Head Allen? If there are four people, that's enough. If too many people go there, it will be difficult to move," Rocky said with a satisfied nod.

"All right. But if ever you find yourselves in danger, inform me immediately. I will find a way to help you," Lance said firmly.

After that, Rocky and the two women prepared to leave. After bidding Isis goodbye, the three of them set off for the Magic Phoenix Empire.

As one of the three strongest countries in the Wild Spirit Land, the Magic Phoenix Empire was relatively peaceful, compared to the other countries wrought with wars. Although the Magic Phoenix Empire was vast and rich in natural resources, there was almost no wars. The people who dwelled here lived simply and peacefully. This was mainly because the Magic Phoenix Empire controlled the economic lifeline of many countries and had considerable resources that many countries needed. Therefore, the Magic Phoenix Empire was a very important economic power in the Wild Spirit Land. Because of this, no

country dared to attack the Magic Phoenix Empire. If one country offended the Magic Phoenix Empire, it would probably end up offending many other countries simultaneously.
