Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 670 - 632 Hopes Dashed
Chapter 670: Chapter 632: Hopes Dashed Chapter 670: Chapter 632: Hopes Dashed After leading the Void Magic Corps into battle, Rocky charged ahead directly toward the enemy and immediately engaged in a firefight with the enemy’s Void Magic Warriors.
Previously, Rocky had restrained the enemy’s fleet and had not actually appeared on the battlefield of the Void Magic Corps, so this was actually his first time clashing with the Void Magic Corps from the City of Fury. Right from the beginning of the battle, the City of Fury’s side learned why Rocky was known as the Battlefield Demon.
After one encounter, two squad leaders were slashed out of the sky by his scythe!
It was that fast!
Charging into the enemy lines alone, Rocky naturally encountered squad leader level enemies, but just in one encounter, just with one swing of his scythe, two squad leaders blocking his way were cut in half, the speed of which was simply unimaginable.
However, the City of Fury had clearly prepared as well, and in the blink of an eye, Rocky was surrounded on all sides by squad leaders in Special Armor, completely encircling him mid-air.
“Perfect timing!”
Surveying his surroundings and quickly counting the number of enemies, Rocky found there were about fifteen or sixteen squad leaders, which made him burst into laughter, because after the previous major battle, he and Liliya had summarized the combat with the Void Magic Corps, concluding if judging solely by the combatants’ abilities, Thunderhawk City’s side was stronger, thanks to the superior performance of the Thunderhawk Armor over the traditional Mass-produced Armor.
Similarly, the strength of the squad leaders was undeniable; in their last clash, Thunderhawk City lost four Void Magic Squads, with nearly all losses stemming from those squad leaders. Thus, if the sides clashed again, how to eliminate the most threatening squad leaders first would be key to the Void Magic Corps’ victory, which is why Rocky was so pleased to find himself surrounded by so many squad leaders.
With only thirty squads in total, or thirty squad leaders, and now that half of them were gathered around Rocky, those left to face ordinary soldiers were fewer. Moreover, the remaining squad leaders had no chance to strike at ordinary soldiers because Liliya and the others were there. Relying on their New Armor, they were stronger than the squad leaders, although always outnumbered. But with more than half the squad leaders tied up by Rocky, Liliya and her teammates had every capability to restrain the other leaders.
Rocky had no need to worry about the fight amongst ordinary soldiers; his side’s Void Magic Warriors, although outnumbered, had more powerful Armor, particularly in terms of mobility and power. Even if they couldn’t beat them, they could always run, and as long as ordinary soldiers could survive as long as possible until all the squad leaders were eliminated, victory was inevitably Rocky’s.
In this situation, although it appeared Rocky was surrounded, he was not only glad about it but also doing his best to contain the enemies encircling him. He would rather not kill but made sure not to let any of the surrounding squad leaders escape; he attacked anyone who dared to leave!
Because of his containment, the pressure on Thunderhawk City’s Void Magic Corps was significantly reduced, especially for the ordinary soldiers because, just as Rocky thought, once over half the squad leaders focused on him, there weren’t many left, and when these few remaining leaders faced Liliya and the others alone, their outcome was naturally predictable.
The last battle had already proven that Liliya and her team’s Armor had surpassed Fifth Generation Special Armor, and this time was no different. In one-on-one situations, the squad leaders were no match for them, and as such, after several minutes of battle, squad leaders began falling one after another, followed by their numbers rapidly climbing into double digits.
And after downing the squad leaders they faced, Liliya and her team did not go to aid Rocky; instead, they focused on the ordinary soldiers. Thus, the situation turned unfavorable for the City of Fury’s Void Magic Corps. In a soldier-to-soldier, leader-to-leader fight, City of Fury’s ordinary Void Magic Warriors could still leverage their numerical superiority to gain an edge in battle, even if their Armor was inferior to that of Thunderhawk City; a three-to-one ratio was enough to let them chase and heavily attack Thunderhawk City’s Void Magic Warriors, gleaning significant victories. In just a short span of minutes, Thunderhawk City losses surpassed a squad, and as these increased, their numerical disadvantage deepened, along with their disadvantage in the fight.
But as soon as Liliya and the others broke free, the situation started plummeting fast for the City of Fury. Leveraging the superior mobility and powerful offensive capabilities of their Armor, facing City of Fury’s ordinary Void Magic Warriors, they were like wolves upon sheep, and it wasn’t an exaggeration to say they took down one with each bite, especially with Dusa present, acting as a demon on their side. As an archer, supported by formidable Armor, she could take out an enemy with one arrow, so when she targeted those wearing only Mass-produced Armor, their nightmare began.
“Don’t even think about escaping!”
Amidst the intense encirclement, Rocky sped up and shook off the enemies on either side, then instantly zoomed behind a squad leader, his scythe flashing down to send the squad leader’s head flying before he immediately set his sight on another squad leader trying to break free from the encirclement.
Clearly, as the battle shifted, City of Fury’s command also realized the issue; the squad leaders originally surrounding Rocky were starting to retreat gradually, trying to abandon the encirclement around Rocky and instead deal with Liliya and the others. But how could Rocky possibly give them the chance? So any squad leader he spotted trying to leave, he would burst forth with full power to cut them down!
In his view, the squad leaders who had surrounded him must play this battle out with him, and no one was getting away!

Initially, the City of Fury had hoped their Void Magic Corps could turn the tide of battle. However, it now seemed that not only had City of Fury’s Void Magic Corps failed to capitalize on their expected advantages, they had instead plunged themselves into a predicament. Of course, they weren’t the only ones in trouble; City of Fury’s fleet was in the same situation.
After the Void Magic Corps engaged in battle, the fleets from both sides also entered a grand melee. Given that the distance between them had narrowed to within five hundred meters, no matter whether it was the warships from City of Fury or those from Thunderhawk City, they were all firing full force at this moment. Each battleship’s cannons roared continuously, the sounds of gunfire, the flashes of light, and the explosions at this moment formed a grand spectacle. Regrettably, in this spectacle, City of Fury failed to secure the role of the protagonist; they became the tragic supporting character being thrashed by the hero…
