The Medallion Chapter 1402 The Desperate Fight Against The Calamity Beast

"It's just to see if you're qualified enough to be my successor," the Holy Lord said seriously.

"I beg your pardon? Your successor?" stunned, Rocky asked in surprise.

"To tell you the truth, there is someone like me out there who records the history in all the worlds, even
including the one you're from. The Holy Lord is just a title given to me in the Star Divine World," the
Holy Lord explained, completely rendering Rocky speechless.

"Then who on earth are you?" Initially, Rocky thought that the Holy Lord was from the Star Divine Race.
But as it turned out, there was more to his unbelievable secret.

"We are called watchers. As for our origins, you'll definitely learn more after you become my successor.
Despite having the ability to travel through space and time and being powerful, we can't interfere with
each of the world's history. We are bound to only record the history of each world, and nothing more.
We can live forever in a certain time, but still, this does not make us immortal. Frankly, I should have
disappeared long ago when the Star Divine Race was wiped out. But because Divine King Belial
wanted me to record the history of the Wild Spirit Land, I let myself fall asleep instead."

"I first thought that I could make Divine King Belial my successor. I just didn't expect him to decide to
destroy himself. That was why I began to closely observe you the minute you showed up. Even though
you are the reincarnation of Divine King Belial, I believe that your soul still comes from another world.
No matter how hard I try to find out why, I just couldn't. Perhaps, it is just heavenly destined that even
watchers like us can't predict the future. I thought of it a lot of times, and I believe that if you become
my successor and the next watcher of this world, you may be able to change the fate of this world," the
Holy Lord stated slowly.

"So, does that mean that I can change the fate of the entire Wild Spirit Land as long as I am your
successor?" Rocky clarified.



"You got that right. The watchers might not be able to intervene in the process of the world, but we
have the responsibility to maintain the world's balance. If you become a watcher, the responsibility of
maintaining balance and making sure it doesn't change rests in your hands. In my opinion, the Wild
Spirit Land is bound to be destroyed. It is just a matter of time. However, it is being destroyed too
soon," the Holy Lord added.

"So, how do I pass your test?" Rocky asked as soon as he heard his explanation. In fact, he didn't
need to think about anything else at that time. He believed that sacrificing himself once again was
nothing as long as it would mean that he could save the world. Moreover, he thought that this sacrifice
was tenfold better than dragging a seemingly lifeless body to live a miserable life.

"Okay, then. Come with me. You don't have to worry. This would be very easy for you. After all, you are
already qualified to be a successor. Plus, I admire that you are very selfless! That trait is very hard to
come by nowadays!" While he said those words, a strong golden light immediately lifted from his body,
instantly enveloping both him and Rocky. In the blink of an eye, they vanished from where they stood.

Meanwhile, humans and the members of the spiritual race worked together fervently to fight against the
calamity beasts. However, their combined power was still deemed to be minuscule and insignificant
under the overwhelming power of the calamity beasts.

A month later, the Demonic Thunder Tiger, which had been subdued by Rocky, emerged in the Holy
Dragon Empire's territory. Ferociously, it marched its way condescendingly, destroying everything in its
path.

As a result, the Holy Dragon Empire gathered all of its soldiers and spirit manipulators at once. They all
tried their best to banish the beast from their land, but no matter what they did, the Demonic Thunder
Tiger only smashed them with a terrifyingly powerful counterattack.



At that time, a myriad of corpses lay on the ground, with everything burned into crisps on the battlefield
at the Gehenna Border. Everything was rendered lifeless or destroyed in ruins as the sky struck
lightning and thunder every so often.

Not long after, a gigantic beast stood upright on its four legs on the horizon, flashing lightning all over
its entire body. It took one step after another, making everything within a hundred meters around it turn
into a void.

"P...Preceptor Marcia, I'm afraid we can't stop it." Panting from running, a young man sped his way into
the camp and reported.

At that time, many people gathered in the camp, including Marcia, Bryant, Sabina, Lucilla, Shirley, and
other familiar faces. The young man who came in was also related to them as he was Sabina's
younger brother, Flint.

On the other hand, Marcia was given the title of imperial preceptor to assist the state affairs after Nigel
ascended the throne.

"Deputy Commander Flint, how many soldiers and spirit manipulators are left at the front line?" Marcia
asked directly.

"Only thirty thousand soldiers and less than a hundred spirit manipulators left respectively," Flint replied
at once.

"That means that we have lost more than a hundred thousand soldiers and hundreds of spirit
manipulators in such a short time. If it goes on at this rate, we can't drive the beast out of our empire
even if we put every single ounce of force we have," Bryant sighed dejectedly.

"At the worst, we'll risk our lives in resistance," Shirley yelled. At that moment, she could not hide the
annoyance that filled her eyes any longer.



"In any case, we must not let the calamity beast move further into our empire. Otherwise, the Holy
Dragon Empire will become a living hell that we all will be killed," Marcia said with firm resolution.

"If only Basil were here. I bet everything would be fine if he were here. I know he'd find a way out of this
mess." Lucilla couldn't help but exclaim in misery.

Hearing her words, all the people in the area looked down in sadness for sharing her sentiments.

"Fellows, we relied too much on Basil in the past. If we didn't, then he wouldn't have shouldered all the
responsibilities and heavy burdens single-handedly. I know we all miss his strength and wisdom, but
this time around, let's destroy this beast on our own. This is what Basil would have wanted," Marcia
said with great determination.

With heavy hearts, everyone looked at each other and nodded.

Soon after, Marcia, Bryant, and the great masters led the rest of the troops to prepare to fight against
the calamity beast.

With weapons and shields, they stood their ground as they awaited one of the most extremely tragic
battles of their lives.

At the end of the day, almost all the soldiers were shot dead, leaving only Marcia, Bryant, and other
spirit manipulators fighting against the calamity beast as hard as they could.

Although Sabina and the other girls were also severely injured, this did not stop them from fighting with
all their might.

Unfortunately for them, despite giving their all, the calamity beast was still moving towards the Holy
Dragon Empire unscathed.



Just as they thought that they were going to lose it, a group of spiritual shadows suddenly flew over in
the sky, launching an overwhelmingly significant attack on the calamity beast.

Not long after, a commanding figure suddenly landed beside Marcia.

"Oh my god, Moira!" Marcia said as she blinked her beautiful eyes in astonishment.

"There you are. Hey, I finally made it," said Moira.

Meanwhile, as thousands of members from the Dragon Master Clan put in their efforts to block the
beast's way, it had finally stopped in its tracks and began to counterattack frantically.

Three days and nights worth of fighting had passed, and the Dragon Master Clan had lost more than
half of its fighting force. But somehow, the calamity beast appeared to have an infinite source of power
that it still kept destroying everything within its reach.

"Marcia, we can't go on like this," Moira said as she looked deep into Marcia's eyes.

"It looks like we have to find another way to lure this massive creature away. We can't stand another
massive loss." Marcia seemed to have already decided.

"Marcia, no! I won't let you risk your life!" Moira had seen through Marcia's mind. Her face trembled in
fear, immediately shaking her head in disapproval. "No, you can't take any risk."

"There is no other way, Moira. I have to!" Marcia sighed.
