Chapter 712: Chapter 675 Assembling the Troops Chapter 712: Chapter 675 Assembling the Troops “Master Wynn, do you think this location is feasible?”
Upon returning to Thunderhawk City, Rocky imdiately sought out Wynn and laid all the intelligence he’d brought back in front of him. Wynn then ticulously reviewed the information.
“Hmm…”
Holding the topographic map that Rocky had handed him, Wynn frowned in thought before looking back at Rocky, “If we park Thunderhawk City on the lakeshore, it is indeed feasible. However, the geology and soil of the lakeshore are not the best choices for expanding the city’s foundation. But that’s not a major issue. Sky City’s mana supply system can reinforce these soils, bringing them up to standard.”
This was precisely why Rocky had co to consult with Wynn. The primary purpose of bringing Thunderhawk City down to land was to absorb the soil to expand the city’s foundation. Although the specifications weren’t exceptionally high, there were still standards to et, and in this matter, only Wynn could make the decision.
What he had just said seed to suggest that the shores of Red Water Lake might not be the best choice, but given the city’s defense needs, it seed acceptable.
So when Rocky heard Wynn’s words, he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, after surveying Red Water Lake, he was not only quite satisfied with the location but had also ford a plan.
“In that case, I’ll start preparing.”
With Wynn’s affirmative answer, Rocky was at ease and imdiately set out to prepare.
He first summoned Aileen.
“Has there been any news from the Ruby Chamber of Comrce about when they can transport the Super Crystal?”
“They’ve been contacted. The caravan will arrive within a week.”
“Good.”
Now certain of the Super Crystal’s arrival date, Rocky then proceeded to the research institute and found Hamrfire.
As soon as they t, before Rocky could even speak, Hamrfire, who was working, pointed to the side of the laboratory. Following his gesture, Rocky quickly spotted a brand-new set of White Demon Armor!
During the days Rocky went to scout Red Water Lake, Hamrfire had managed to recreate the White Demon Armor. Like he’d said before, the newly crafted set remained a second-generation version, but for Rocky, it was sufficient and crucial. With the White Demon Armor finished, he could freely move ahead with the subsequent preparations.
As for what he planned to do next, it was actually quite straightforward: lead the Fleet to Red Water Lake.
Rocky had never intended to delay the crystal replacent for too long. Although he had full control of when to comnce, considering his situation and the possibility of the Magic Energy Research Institute, the Kafka Empire, and other forces turning their sights on him at any mont, Rocky felt that it was better to complete the crystal swap sooner rather than later. Otherwise, if sothing did go wrong, he might not be able to carry out the task for a lengthy period.
Under these circumstances, Rocky promptly issued orders for the Fleet to assemble, while informing Orton that once the Super Crystal arrived at Thunderhawk City, they should imdiately initiate flight mode to head straight for Red Water Lake. As for Rocky himself, he would lead the Fleet in advance to the lake to eliminate demons, aiming to reduce the pressure on the upcoming battle by killing as many as possible.
Thus, just two days after returning to Thunderhawk City, Rocky set out once again. Only this ti, he brought his entire Fleet of one hundred sixty Rune Battleships, all soaring into the sky under his command, swiftly heading towards Red Water Lake.
Having traveled the sa route just a few days earlier, Rocky, now accompanied by a large contingent, left Thunderhawk City and, being well-acquainted with the journey, returned to Red Water Lake in just two days. It was on the day of their arrival at the lake that Rocky began issuing a series of commands.
First, he assigned the warships into groups, directing them to thoroughly and ticulously scout the surrounding areas of Red Water Lake, ensuring that they located every demon gathering spot.
Red Water Lake was an excellent location, but even the best spot was still situated on land; and on land, demons were ever-present. Therefore, even after selecting a suitable landing site for Thunderhawk City, the preparations were not complete. In so respects, this was just the first step. The next was to eradicate the demons.
Following Rocky’s instructions, the Fleet dispersed, with groups of ten ships conducting a carpet search around Red Water Lake.
During this search, demon encampnts were uncovered one after another within just a few days. When these discoveries were compiled and delivered to Rocky, he couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
“So many…”
In the Captain’s cabin of the War Steed, Rocky, Liliya, and Felly gathered around the map, which was now covered with markings, especially around Red Water Lake.
These markers represented demon encampnts discovered in the last few days. When plotted on the map, they appeared dense and swarming like ants, making one’s skin crawl.
Although Rocky had anticipated many demons around Red Water Lake, given its status as a water source, demons still depended on water, and those nearby the source were bound to be nurous.
But he had not anticipated such an enormous number. Looking at the myriad markings on the map, Rocky even felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. How many demons could there be?
After synthesizing the pieces of intelligence, he made a rough estimate and found that there were at least dozens of demon gathering points around Red Water Lake. These varied in size, with smaller ones hosting a few hundred demons and larger ones teeming with thousands, so of which included species even Rocky had never seen before.
When all these disparate gathering points were added up, it revealed a conservative estimate of several tens of thousands of demons around Red Water Lake! And that was just the figure on the surface; once Thunderhawk City landed nearby, the commotion would surely attract even more demons.
At this point, Rocky’s foresight beca apparent. It was fortunate that he led the Fleet to Red Water Lake ahead of ti and conducted surveillance on the surrounding demons, allowing for the preemptive extermination of a wave of demons before the arrival of Thunderhawk City. Otherwise, upon landing near the lake’s shores, these demons would inevitably beco formidable foes.
Following this, Rocky imdiately recalled all the warships that had scattered and comnced a large-scale extermination of the identified demon strongholds!
