Chapter 801: Chapter 783: Trapped Beast
“Rocky, do you really want to make us your enemies?”
“You can’t even get out of Eternal City’s airspace right now, and you dare capture us—are you really planning to bury yourself here?”
After a frantic journey, the Great Elder and Chancellor, representing the Three Great Alliances, were both too old to endure the ordeal and could hardly speak anymore. Denise’s face was pale, but Kashu, being young and strong, seed to be holding up well. When taken away, he still had the strength to direct a fierce roar at Rocky.
Kashu was on the verge of losing his mind. As the Sect Leader of Uranus Corporation, he had never been subjected to such treatnt. Rocky had actually kidnapped him—an act Kashu considered utterly ridiculous. Even the most daring person wouldn’t dare sothing like this.
Yet Rocky did exactly that. Not only did he do it, but he also firmly believed he wouldn’t et his demise here.
Thus, after glancing at the captured Kashu and the others, Rocky couldn’t be bothered to speak further and simply headed to the Armant Zone with Liliya.
Very soon, the two of them flew to the Armant Zone and saw Orton, who had been waiting there for quite so ti.
“Teacher, is everything ready?”
“All set—ready to fire at any mont.”
Nodding at Rocky, Orton’s face was filled with excitent.
The Armant Zone now was vastly different from how it had been months ago. Months ago, it had been empty; the vast square contained only two lonely turrets. But today, it was a completely different scene.
Now, the Armant Zone was bristling with turrets. Thirty imposing turret installations were neatly arranged in formation, resembling thirty towering giants. These turrets were fully charged and prepared to fire at any given mont!
This was precisely the source of Orton’s excitent. Finally, the Sky City Armant Program he had planned and implented could shine in front of the whole world. No wonder Orton was thrilled!
“Break out from the southeast direction.”
Seeing that all thirty Asura Cannons were ready, Rocky flew to a high altitude to survey the situation. Thunderhawk City was completely encircled by five large-scale Sky Cities, locked in an ironclad cage.
This encirclent was akin to an impregnable iron wall. If it were any other Sky City, no matter its size, it would be impossible to escape. But Thunderhawk City was different. Thunderhawk City had been thoroughly ard, transforming it into not just a Sky City but a flying war machine in the sky!
Thus, Rocky issued his command for Thunderhawk City to advance toward the southeast.
The southeast direction was chosen because, upon ascending to the skies, Rocky imdiately saw Sirius City and decided on this direction. His actual target, however, wasn’t Sirius City—it was a large Sky City next to Sirius City.
Rocky didn’t recognize this large Sky City but observed that it was even bigger than Sirius City—a veritable giant. He planned to use this Sky City as his breakthrough point, to smash through in this direction.
With his order given, Thunderhawk City, previously immobilized in the air, sprang into action, imdiately raising alarms among the surrounding Sky Cities.
To be honest, the mont Rocky fled from the City Lord’s Mansion, the surrounding Sky Cities had already been alerted. They knew he had kidnapped the Sky Alliance’s Great Elder Adolf. Truthfully, when this news broke, no one believed it. It was already miraculous enough that Rocky escaped from the layers of encirclent, but he went a step further and kidnapped the Alliance Elder—not just Adolf, either!
Precisely because of this, the surrounding Sky Cities had been hesitant to act rashly. They were waiting for directives from the Alliance, which had been continuously trying to contact Rocky to negotiate. But Rocky completely ignored them.
Now, as Thunderhawk City began to move, the City Lords of the surrounding Sky Cities were thrown into a dilemma. What should they do? It would be easy to launch an attack to destroy Thunderhawk City, but could they guarantee the lives of the three captured leaders?
If they didn’t attack, would they just sit back and watch Rocky escape?
“Tighten the encirclent! Trap Thunderhawk City in place!”
Soon the City Lords received their orders. They weren’t instructed to attack but were told to imprison Rocky within the enclosure.
This was indeed a clever tactic. Sky Cities were massive, so without sufficient gaps, it was impossible for Thunderhawk City to break out. By simply tightening the periter, Rocky would have no way to escape unless he could destroy one of the Sky Cities to carve out an opening.
However, neither the Three Great Alliances nor the City Lords considered this remotely possible, so they gave it no further thought.
The five large-scale Sky Cities began contracting their periter, attempting to box Thunderhawk City in. But even so, Thunderhawk City showed no signs of stopping, pressing onward toward the southeast.
The other City Lords found this move laughable. Did Rocky plan to squeeze Thunderhawk City through the gaps? Or perhaps he intended to go “all-in” and crash Thunderhawk City out of the encirclent?
Both possibilities were utterly absurd—completely unrealistic.
Only Howling Sky thought differently. Having interacted with Rocky for so long, Howling Sky had witnessed too many of Rocky’s miraculous achievents. Therefore, when he saw Thunderhawk City veering toward the neighboring large Sky City, Howling Sky grew cautious and subtly ordered Sirius City to slow its approach speed.
“Rocky, they’re tightening the encirclent—but Sirius City seems to have noticed sothing.”
The activity of the surrounding Sky Cities didn’t escape Rocky’s sight. Liliya quickly grasped their intentions and turned to Rocky.
“Ignore them. Let them have their mont of satisfaction.”
After saying this, Rocky turned to Orton: “Teacher, are we within range yet?”
“Almost there—just a little closer. We can’t give them even a sliver of ti to react.”
Holding a telescope in hand, Orton kept an eye on the distance.
Although the Asura Cannons had a range exceeding tens of thousands of ters, the distances between Sky Cities far surpassed that. Moreover, to eliminate any chance of retaliation or escape, Orton insisted on closing in a bit more before launching the attack.
As Thunderhawk City continued its relentless advance, the City Lords of the surrounding Sky Cities frowned and began deploying their fleets.
In an instant, warships filled the skies, appearing one after another. The sheer number was overwhelming, akin to a swarm of locusts. Within seconds, their numbers exceeded tens of thousands!
But these warships were utterly insignificant in Rocky’s eyes. As the enemy unleashed their fleets, the distance between Thunderhawk City and its target shrank to under ten thousand ters. At that mont, Rocky glanced at Orton and said slowly, “Teacher, fire.”
