Chapter 867: Chapter 849: Making a Difference!
The Mairente Family now no longer has the strength to continue fighting.
After this great crisis, the remaining fleet of the family is less than a thousand warships, to be precise, just over seven hundred. As for the Void Magic Warriors, the casualties are even more severe. Originally, there were twenty squads of Void Magic Warriors, but after the demons retreated, only seven squads remained. More than a hundred Void Magic Warriors fell in battle against the Flying Demons, while the ground forces, which had been defending the walls, suffered fewer casualties but were also reduced to just over two hundred people.
With such a small force, it’s no exaggeration to say it’s not even comparable to so powerful small-scale Sky Cities. How could Cyril lead such a troop into battle?
Retreat to the rear to recuperate and expand the forces?
Haha, expanding the forces isn’t just about adding so soldiers. Battleships and Armor must be bought, and soldiers need training. You can’t just expand as you wish. These things cannot be hidden from Rocky. In fact, given Rocky’s foresight, if Cyril led the family back into battle, it’s likely they would once again be abandoned as soon as the situation beca dire. This is still a better scenario; at worst, the Allied Forces could sacrifice them as cannon fodder on the battlefield, leading to the family’s doom.
Frankly speaking, Rocky doesn’t want to see this happen.
The Mairente Family, after all, is his father’s family, and most of them are related to him by blood. Now that past grievances have been settled, Rocky truly does not want to see this closest family of his end up as cannon fodder.
“We have no other options…”
However, after Rocky finished speaking, Cyril shook her head helplessly.
Despite her young age, as Atted’s daughter, she has been involved in family affairs since she was a child. She understood everything Rocky said, but knowing doesn’t change anything. As she said, she and the family have no other options, especially now.
Rocky’s right, the remaining forces of the family can no longer participate in the upcoming battle, but what else can they do if not fight? Return to Sky City? If they did that, the accumulated Military rit from previous battles wouldn’t even cover this war’s losses. They’d have participated in the war for nothing, leaving the family’s ager remaining strength further depleted—a double loss!
“I have an idea.”
Hearing Cyril’s helpless words, Rocky smiled slightly, and as soon as he said that, Cyril and the others were stunned, all eyes on him, obviously waiting for him to continue.
“Everyone else, leave. I need to talk to Cyril alone.”
Watching the expectant faces turned toward him, Rocky didn’t speak further but asked everyone else to leave. Since he spoke up, the elders of the Mairente Family had no choice but to comply and one by one, obediently left the City Lord’s Hall. However, before leaving, they constantly gave Cyril aningful looks, clearly indicating for her to try her best to accomplish this matter.
Rocky is now undoubtedly a significant figure; consider Karina, Berg, the Ruby Chamber of Comrce, and the Apple Tree Corporation. Everyone who has aligned with him has prospered. If the Mairente Family could reconcile with Rocky, the family would really have hope.
But faced with this attitude from the family elders, Cyril could only sigh in resignation. They probably ended up in this plight because of their attitude.
After a sigh, the elders also left the City Lord’s Hall, and Cyril looked at Rocky, who indeed stood up and nonchalantly said, “Follow .”
Finishing his words, he led Cyril to his study, where as soon as she entered, she saw an enormous sandbox.
“You’ve been following this war all along?”
“Of course.”
Without outsiders present, Cyril felt less constrained with Rocky. At this mont, they were more like siblings than leaders of two factions.
“I said not to participate in this war, but I never said to stay out of it.”
Standing by the sandbox, Rocky spoke while looking at it, and upon hearing this, Cyril slightly frowned because she could clearly sense that Rocky intended to take action!
“Here is Backhill Village.”
After staring at the sandbox for a while, Rocky suddenly pointed to a spot, the exact location of Backhill Village, then he pointed again beside it: “Here is Kasin City.”
“I plan to capture Kasin City. It’s a large city, once one of the Wanzhong Kingdom’s most important cities. If I can control this city and expand outward from there, controlling the entire Skybreaker Peak area will be just around the corner.”
“Unfortunately, I can’t do this alone. I need soone to help .”
Saying this, Rocky looked at Cyril, and by this ti, Cyril had already widened her eyes in disbelief.
Although she had already sensed Rocky’s intentions from what he said, she didn’t expect him to plan to open a new battlefield on his own!
He’s not just abstaining from the war, he’s trying to start a war on his own!
Indeed, Cyril was right to think so; Rocky truly intended to start a war.
As Rocky himself said, he indeed did not intend to participate in the counteroffensive war launched by The Three Great Alliances; that was certain. But this doesn’t an he chose to stand aside completely. On the contrary, he always had his own plans, very ambitious plans.
He had long lost hope in The Three Great Alliances. Their previous actions had already drawn a dividing line between both parties, isolating Rocky outside that line, so he would never participate in their joint war, fearing being sold out again.
But this doesn’t an he would quietly fade into the background. Since deciding not to join the counteroffensive, Rocky has been considering what actions to take. Should he hide in the sky and continue developing? It’s actually a good idea, as his developing trend suggests he could one day beco a giant in the sky, a scenario almost universally agreed upon.
But Rocky didn’t want this because it was re temporary survival; he wanted to achieve sothing significant!
