Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 653 - 615 Wrong Command

Chapter 653: Chapter 615 Wrong Command Chapter 653: Chapter 615 Wrong Command Although the Defensive Net of the flagship where Tawa was located was too strong, preventing Rocky from executing his decapitation plan, he quickly changed his strategy and aimed at other warships.

Thus, the problem fell on Tawa’s shoulders.

Actually, if it were someone else doing the same thing, Tawa wouldn’t have been troubled at all. He wouldn’t even have cared, since an individual’s power is limited. Even if no one stopped them, the damage a Void Magic Warrior could inflict on the entire Fleet would be minimal. But Rocky was different, because his efficiency was simply too high!

Harvesting.

Perhaps only the word “harvesting” could describe Rocky’s efficiency. He destroyed more than a dozen warships in just a few minutes. The speed was so astonishing that it forced Tawa to react immediately; otherwise, with Rocky’s pace, it wouldn’t take long for the Fleet of the City of Fury to be completely harvested.

But for Tawa, this decision was too difficult to make.

To stop Rocky’s solo performance, the only option was to call back the Void Magic Corps. However, at this time, all of Tawa’s Void Magic Corps had been deployed into the battlefield. According to the reports from the corps commanders, they had already gained an advantage in the fight. Given enough time, annihilating the Thunderhawk City’s troops wouldn’t be an issue.

In this situation, Tawa’s best option was to leave Rocky alone and then revisit the situation after his own Void Magic Corps had completely wiped out the enemy. By then, Rocky would no longer be a threat.

However, the actual situation was far from that simple. Tawa also didn’t know when his troops would be able to completely eliminate the enemy. He had also learned from the commanders of the Void Magic Corps that the Thunderhawk City’s troops were not a pushover. Although his own troops had an advantage, the battle was extremely tough. Thus, a quick victory might not be possible in a short time.

Then another problem arose—how many warships could Rocky destroy before Tawa’s forces could retreat?

Regrettably, based on Tawa’s experience, before his Void Magic Corps could retreat, with Rocky’s efficiency akin to reaping wheat, he could destroy at least a hundred warships, or even more!

This kind of loss was somewhat too great for Tawa, so he made a very correct yet extremely erroneous decision.

He ordered ten captains to be called back from the front lines.

At least in Tawa’s view, his decision had no problem. The frontline commanders had already reported to him that they had the upper hand. Under such circumstances, pulling some forces back to counter Rocky was quite normal. More importantly, in order not to affect the frontline advantage, Tawa specifically called back only the squad leaders, thus ensuring that his troops maintained a numerical advantage in combat, while also ensuring that the retrieved captains could effectively stop Rocky. It was killing two birds with one stone.

Indeed, on the surface, his decision seemed flawless, but those who understood the actual combat situation knew it was a grave mistake. The reason the Void Magic Corps from the City of Fury were able to maintain an advantage in battle was not because of their numbers, but because they had thirty captains wearing Special Armor. Tawa’s decision to withdraw one-third of them, along with those already fallen, left very few squad leaders on the front lines.

Unfortunately, at this time, Tawa was still unaware of the mistake he made. Conversely, the commanders of the Void Magic Corps on the frontline understood the situation better and did not fully carry out his orders, eventually withdrawing only five captains.

This relieved a lot of pressure on Liliya and her team, since from the onset of the battle, each of them had eliminated at least one captain. Among them, Dusa and Liliya had the highest kills, with Liliya eliminating three captains and Dusa two. This meant that more than ten of the City of Fury’s thirty captains were already dead.

Even so, there were still almost twenty captains on the battlefield. Liliya, Dusa, Monte, Lin Feng, Sandro, and Robin, the six of them, found it quite challenging to face these captains. But then Tawa withdrew five of them, effectively reducing their pressure by one-third!

Under these circumstances, the tide of the battlefield began to turn. After all, Liliya and her team held an absolute advantage in Armor. Any captain targeted by them would be severely damaged if not killed, and as long as a captain was subdued, the engagement between ordinary Void Magic Warriors and those from Thunderhawk City was completely feasible.

On the other hand, although the frontline commander, constrained by the battlefield situation, withdrew only five captains, this action disrupted Tawa’s plan. The reason was simple: five captains could not contain Rocky!

While the five captains hurriedly flew back to their base, Rocky took the opportunity to destroy more than ten warships. So, to count it all, he had destroyed over twenty warships in a very short time!

If this achievement were placed on an ordinary Void Magic Warrior, it would be enough to crown him the ace of aces, but for Rocky, it was nothing out of the ordinary, and even Tawa wasn’t surprised.

What really surprised Tawa was that only five captains had returned from the front lines — how could such a small number possibly control Rocky?!

It must be said that Tawa’s judgment was quite accurate because, right after these five captains rushed back to their base, he watched helplessly as Rocky completely ignored them…

The five returning captains were true warriors; despite knowing the terror of Rocky, they still charged at him. This courage alone was commendable and worthy of praise, but facing these men, Rocky didn’t stop his harvesting at all.

As the five captains charged toward him, Rocky simply accelerated, with no intention of entangling with them. He continued to assault warship after warship. If anything had changed, it was probably that he expanded his Defensive Net to fend off the captains’ long-range attacks. Apart from this, nothing had changed, not even the pace at which he destroyed warships.

This situation was disastrous. The frontline lost its advantage due to the absence of five captains, and the tide was slowly turning in favor of Liliya and her team. The five captains who had retreated to their base had no effect on Rocky, causing Tawa’s decision not to alter the situation, but rather to lose the hard-earned advantage on the frontline, making Tawa feel terribly frustrated.

And it was from this moment that the battlefield situation began to transform completely…
