Chapter 596: Chapter 559: Moving Fortress! Chapter 596: Chapter 559: Moving Fortress! Rocky and Orton had maintained contact, and the reason Rocky dared to withdraw the entire Guard Corps underground and even ordered Karina to completely destroy the research institute was that he had received notification from Orton—the Moving Fortress was fully charged!
He had seen the Moving Fortress with his own eyes. Once it was fully charged and successfully activated, it would certainly be able to bring out his hundreds of Guards.
So when Liliya asked him, Rocky simply nodded his head and then looked down from the sky towards the ground, evidently waiting for the Moving Fortress to erge from sowhere below.
It wasn’t just him. Liliya and others at his side were also gazing at the ground, scrutinizing the ruins, as was Karina who was directing the Fleet. Even after Rocky and others ascended, Karina imdiately flew out from the flagship and into mid-air. Even the many sailors on the warships were now leaning over the rails, all looking down at the ground.
At this mont, everyone was eagerly anticipating the appearance of the Moving Fortress.
One minute passed.
Ten minutes passed.
Thirty minutes passed…!
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had gone by, but throughout this ti, no movent was detected within the ruins. In the eyes of Rocky and others, the ground was still completely covered by Demons. The swarming Demons had obscured the entire ruins from view. Looking out, one could only see Demons trampling the ruins underfoot; the ruins themselves were no longer visible.
Thus, everyone began to worry, including Rocky.
Orton had clearly stated that the fortress was fully charged and could be activated. How co such a long ti had passed without a trace of it? What was going on?
What made Rocky even more anxious was that he had tried to contact Orton multiple tis during this period but had never received a response. He didn’t know if it was Orton’s stubborn nature acting up and refusing to deal with him, or if sothing truly unexpected had happened…
A sense of unease, a sense of forboding, now hung over everyone’s hearts at this ti.
However, at that mont, when everyone’s hearts were sowhat apprehensive, a massive sound suddenly ca from within the ruins!
Boom…
Boom… Boom…!!
The sudden noise, as if mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting, made the entire ruins tremble amid those booming sounds. Naturally, this noise caught the attention of Rocky and the others. But when they tried to locate the direction of the noise, they found it to be so loud that they couldn’t determine its source. They only felt the whole earth trembling.
Fortunately, while Rocky and his companions couldn’t discern the exact location of the sound, the Demons on the ground, particularly the Black-eyed Demons with their extrely sensitive hearing, instantly identified the direction. They imdiately sward towards the sa location.
In an instant, the swarming Demons near the research institute moved like a plague of locusts in one direction. This scene caused Rocky and the aerial Fleet to imdiately follow, flying towards the direction of the Demons’ movent.
The group followed the flight of the Demons for a while before coming to a halt, for they had found the source of the massive sounds.
In everyone’s view, a large crack was gradually opening up in a huge empty area of the ruins. It looked as though a massive door was being opened, and the previous booming noise was the sound of this crack forming.
As the gap gradually opened, the surging demons arrived, and then countless demons rushed into the gap!
This scene terrified Rocky and the rest, because the crack was clearly opened by soone, so chances were that it was the passageway for the Moving Fortress. But now, it was flooded with demons. Could this threaten Orton and the others?
Rocky and his companions’ worries were not unfounded, but they clearly overthought it!
For as soon as the gap was fully opened, a tall fortress erged from underground!
The Moving Fortress… had finally appeared!
Watching the Moving Fortress burst from the ground, Rocky, and everyone around him couldn’t help raising their arms in triumph. It was finally out! Orton had succeeded in activating this behemoth!
But in the mont of exaltation, Rocky’s heart sank because although the Moving Fortress had successfully erged from underground, one must not forget the number of demons inside the ruins! Indeed, as soon as the Moving Fortress surfaced, the massive structure was instantly surrounded by an endless horde of demons at its center!
What could they do now?
Seeing the fortress encircled by demons as soon as it appeared, Rocky furrowed his brow and was about to issue commands when he heard a series of artillery blasts!
At that mont, the sound of cannon fire suddenly burst forth, and everyone hastily looked towards the source. Then they saw the cannons of the Moving Fortress erupting with flas at that very instant!
The rumbling of cannon fire ca once again, but this ti not from the Fleet but from the Moving Fortress!
As ntioned before, the Moving Fortress stood dozens of ters high, a true behemoth, and on this behemoth’s body were haphazardly mounted countless cannons. These overwatching canons were of various lengths and thicknesses, making the fortress resemble a hedgehog bristling with spikes.
Now, these spike-like cannons were firing in unison, covering a vast area. With the fortress as the epicenter, the cannons stretched their deadly reach from the imdiate vicinity to hundreds of ters out, engulfing everything in a torrent of fire!
With such a wide-ranging and 360-degree bombardnt, the swarming demons around were drastically reduced in a flash, hundreds being blown to bits in an instant!
“Good grief…”
Watching the hundreds of demons obliterated by the fortress’s continuous bombardnt, Rocky gasped, for even to him, the sight was staggering. He had never seen any weapon, other than the Fleet, capable of inflicting such devastating destruction. No, the destructive power unleashed by the Moving Fortress was even greater than that of the Fleet, because the Fleet was made up of a group of warships, yet there stood before them a single Moving Fortress!
What delighted Rocky even more was yet to co, for after the bombardnt, the Moving Fortress truly sprung into action!
It had been said before that when the number of demons exceeded a certain threshold, the effects of the bombardnt would be minimal. So, after the bombardnt from the Moving Fortress ceased, many demons still lived around it, and all of them charged towards the fortress.
But, the mont these demons rushed towards the fortress, it started moving directly!
With a thunderous roar, the massive fortress, now in motion, was like a moving hill crushing any demon daring enough to block its path, grinding them to dust and forcefully carving a bloody trail through the wreckage!
