Lord of the Sky City

Kyle was an excellent captain, and every member of his squad was also exceptional, but Kyle was, after all, just a captain, and the others were merely team members.

At such a critical moment, even if they wanted to, they couldn’t stand out and lead everyone like a leader would. It wasn’t a matter of capability; they simply weren’t leaders.

So Rocky stepped forward. As the City Lord, he was a born leader, instinctively knowing what to do at any given time!

"All units, attention! Immediate regroup towards Rocky’s position!"

Upon hearing his words, Kyle reacted swiftly, promptly contacting all the Void Magic Captains of the Alliance Army, directing every captain to notify their team members to regroup towards Rocky.

However, although Kyle’s order was passed down, no one acted on it...

It was not because the other captains and members disobeyed, but in a sky filled with Demons, where could they possibly find Rocky?

Now the void around the Void Magic Corps was teeming with Demons, a sea of red, making it impossible for the warriors to even see their close comrades, let alone locate Rocky.

But just then, just as everyone received the order but was unable to find Rocky, suddenly, bright lights appeared in the sky!

The lights were extremely bright, clearly visible even from a great distance. And when people looked closely, they realized these were not just lights, but slashes of Mana unleashed by the Magic Fang Scythe!

Rocky was well aware that others on the battlefield couldn’t possibly find him, so he decisively charged the Magic Fang Scythe with energy!

Thanks to the Azure Fang embedded in it, combined with Pelaya’s Mana Energy Conduction Technique, the Magic Fang Scythe could release absorbed Mana in various forms. For instance, when Rocky faced three Void Magic Squads by himself, he relied on the special properties of the Magic Fang Scythe to absorb all of the enemy’s long-range attacks, then released the absorbed Mana like a Beam Cannon. And now, he was doing the same.

This time, though, he was charging the Magic Fang Scythe with his own Armor, and what he released was not a beam, but a slashing Mana attack!

Once charged, the razor-sharp blade of the Magic Fang Scythe emitted a layer of Blue Light. When Rocky raised the Scythe high and brought it down hard, a crescent-shaped giant slash appeared, measuring over ten meters from top to bottom, resembling a massive crescent moon in the sky. Wherever the slash passed, all the Demons within its range were instantly cleaved in half, no exceptions.

In that way, Rocky swung his Scythe continuously. The incessant slashes not only formed a large net around him, eradicating all the Demons in the vicinity, but also served as a signal, making his presence known to every Void Magic Warrior on the battlefield!

"Close in on Rocky, now! Quickly!"

This scene immediately made everyone realize that it was Rocky; on this battlefield, only the White Demon was capable of such incredible feats. Thus, from captains to team members, everyone charged towards his location, and Fierce Tiger Squad was no exception.

Time quickly passed, and the Void Magic Warriors who were close by gathered around Rocky. Then everyone huddled together, starting to fend off the surrounding Demons as a group.

With that, the situation for the Void Magic Corps improved significantly. After all, these Void Magic Warriors were professional soldiers. Once they stopped fighting individually and gathered together, they immediately coordinated with each other. And with the teamwork established, the Demons that continued to surge forward were no longer as frightening.

"Don’t engage in close combat with them, use long-range weapons to attack!"

As more and more Void Magic Warriors grouped together, it was unclear whether it was a captain or team member who shouted through the communicator, instantly giving everyone a boost.

The claws of the Demons were indeed very sharp, capable of tearing open the Fifth Generation Mass-Produced Armor with a few swipes. But the Demons could only attack with their claws, so avoiding close combat and instead using long-range weapons proved to be the best strategy.

Hearing this, everyone came to their senses and began bombarding the surrounding Demons with Magic Energy Bullets and Magic Energy Cannons.

Not long after, the members of the Fierce Tiger Squad also arrived one after another, and their arrival immediately lessened the pressure on the others.

"Is everyone here?"

"All present!"

After shouting in the communicator, Rocky immediately received a response, indicating that the Void Magic Corps of the Alliance Army had essentially gathered around him.

As everyone assembled together, the pressure on each person significantly decreased. However, this also made them a more obvious target for the Demons, as it gave the Demons a clearer target.

In such a situation, there could be no delay; otherwise, everyone would die here. Rocky naturally understood this, so he immediately said to Kyle through the communicator:

"Captain, I’ll clear the way. Have the others maintain formation, and you lead the squad to cover our retreat. We need to break out immediately!"

Unknowingly, Rocky had become the one giving orders.

"Understood!"

And to his orders, the captains, led by Kyle, had no doubts and proceeded to carry them out immediately.

"Rocky, the Imperial Army’s Void Magic Squad is approaching!"

"The people from the Imperial Knight Order are here!"

But just at that moment, just as everyone was preparing to break out, someone suddenly discovered that the Void Magic Corps of the Imperial Army was being gathered by the Imperial Knight Order and moving towards their location!

"What are these bastards planning to do!"

"Do they still want to fight?!"

"Damn it!"

When the Void Magic Warriors of the Alliance Army saw the Imperial Army’s Void Magic Corps charging over at this key moment, they were immediately infuriated. Facing the endless Demons, did the Imperial Army really intend to take advantage of the situation and plunder?!

"Don’t act rashly! Wait for them to come!"

Turning around in midair, Rocky also saw the silhouettes of the Imperial Army, but unlike the others who were enraged, he slowed down the breakout, intending to wait for the Imperial Army’s forces to draw closer.

As a leader, being able to shoulder responsibility at a critical moment was one thing, but making judgments at an even more critical time was of utmost importance. And now was the time for Rocky to make a judgment. He did not believe that the Imperial Army had come to plunder amidst the chaos; on the contrary, he believed they had come to assist.

Because no matter what conflicts existed between the Sky Alliance and the Kafka Empire, the Demons were a common enemy to everyone. Especially at present, not only was the Alliance Army surrounded by Demons, but the Imperial Army was in the same situation. If the Imperial Army still thought about settling scores with the Alliance Army at this time, they would indeed be courting death. Rocky did not believe the other side would make such a foolish move.

On the contrary, he believed that by moving closer to them at this time, the Imperial Army was coming to join forces with them!
