Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 678 - 640 Sky Might City
Chapter 678: Chapter 640: Sky Might City Chapter 678: Chapter 640: Sky Might City Just as Rocky had transported all the resources of City of Fury to Thunderhawk City, those guests who had received his invitations, or even those who came uninvited, also began to arrive.
Unlike the travel time required from Sky City to Backhill Village, if one simply took a fleet to Backhill Village, it would be much faster, as the speed of a warship was ultimately much faster than that of Sky City. Moreover, Karina and Berg had already spread the news earlier, and many people had been prepared from the beginning, so everyone’s arrival seemed quick, which was completely reasonable.
For these guests, Rocky naturally offered a warm welcome. With the experience of several previous occasions, he was not only familiar with such situations but had even become quite skilled at handling them. However, perhaps due to Rocky’s now greater fame than before, the number of guests who came to Thunderhawk City this time far exceeded his expectations. Not only did the invited guests show up, but there were even more who came uninvited.

However, Rocky was very welcoming to those uninvited guests as well, because for him, the more people, the better.
In this situation, the two cities under Rocky’s rule became lively once again; even Thunderhawk City became packed, and many people were accommodated in Carltos City. Meanwhile, City of Fury’s skyport was also being utilized.
Although everyone had heard through the grapevine that City of Fury had been defeated, this news had not yet been confirmed by the Shadow Alliance. Thus, the guests were quite cautious on their way there, and each significant figure brought along quite a few escort fleets. Consequently, a problem arose when everyone realized that City of Fury was indeed defeated, and even the entire city had fallen—they discovered that there was simply no room for all of the escort fleets arriving simultaneously at Thunderhawk City and Carltos City.
With no other choice, these fleets had to be parked at City of Fury’s skyport. Fortunately, City of Fury’s skyport was large enough, and in the past few days, Rocky and his team had moved out the materials that needed to be transported, thus freeing up a significant amount of space, which allowed the numerous escort fleets to find a place to anchor.
After everything was arranged, Rocky announced to the guests that he would be holding a press conference in two days to disclose significant news.
This immediately excited the guests in the city, who were eagerly waiting for the news Rocky was about to announce. However, it must be admitted that Rocky’s arrangement was somewhat rushed, as many guests had sent messages stating they were on their way and hoped he could wait for them, but Rocky did not wait.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to wait; he simply couldn’t.
The press conference set to take place in two days was carefully planned by Rocky because he had already learned from the reconnaissance ships he had sent out that the reinforcements sent by Rick from Sky Might City had reached near Skybreaker Peak and would arrive at Backhill Village in two more days!
That was why Rocky had scheduled the press conference for two days later.
At the same time, after setting the exact date of the press conference, he issued orders to activate the flying mode for Thunderhawk City, Carltos City, and City of Fury, causing the three sky cities under his rule to simultaneously take off from Backhill Village. As for the direction of their flight, it was precisely toward the approaching Sky Might City.
This move naturally caught the attention of the guests, many of whom frowned upon hearing about it. Everyone was guessing what Rocky planned to do, and it was inevitable that some people would think he intended to use the guests in the cities to threaten Sky Might City.
Was Rocky planning to make Sky Might City wary of the guests inside, consequently keeping a respectful distance from him?
At first glance, it seemed Rocky really intended to do this, but upon further reflection, it appeared unlikely because the guests in Thunderhawk City at that time were no fools. These individuals were either city lords, presidents of the chamber of commerce, or even Alliance Hierarchs. How could they be easily used as pawns? If Rocky really meant to do this, he would be making enemies with the entire world.
Therefore, although everyone was puzzled by Rocky’s actions, no one said much. After all, those who dared to meet with Rocky at this time were not simple characters. Far from being afraid, they were actually curious and excited, eager to see what Rocky was truly planning.
Thus, the two days passed quickly, and the three sky cities that had activated their flying mode soon reached the outskirts of Skybreaker Peak, and, as expected, they encountered Sky Might City before the press conference even started!
When the two sides met, the atmosphere naturally became tense. On Rocky’s side, City of Fury led the way, with Thunderhawk City and Carltos City lined up behind it. Opposite them was the solitary Sky Might City, but despite being the only sky city, no one dared underestimate it, as its combat strength was not only on par with the former City of Fury but even stronger!
In this situation, the many guests inside Thunderhawk City were the happiest. Facing the formidable Sky Might City, they were not afraid at all because even if Sky Might City dared to attack Rocky and even defeat him, they wouldn’t dare do anything to them. This meant that not only could they witness the significant news Rocky was about to announce, but they could also enjoy a fantastic show, which was indeed a great bargain.
Compared to the excited guests inside Thunderhawk City, Achilles, the city lord of Sky Might City, was much more troubled.
Firstly, Achilles hadn’t expected Rocky to play such a move; he hadn’t expected that within the short time from conquering City of Fury to his own arrival, Rocky would have invited so many guests to Thunderhawk City, making it difficult for Achilles to handle.
With the powerful support of the Shadow Alliance, Achilles had already received first-hand intelligence; he had a complete list of the guests inside Thunderhawk City and Carltos City, including several dozen city lords, more than ten presidents or directors of the chambers of commerce, and even a few Alliance Hierarchs. With so many significant figures gathered in Thunderhawk City, Achilles was left without options.
Secondly, he had also received Rick’s orders to be extremely cautious when dealing with Rocky, even to the point of holding off on any action until other reinforcements arrived.
“This Rocky… he really knows how to stir things up…”
After personally riding his flagship to scout the area around the city, Achilles cursed fiercely, then returned to Sky Might City. He immediately issued orders: “Send someone to inform Erwin in City of Fury, tell him we have arrived and to be ready at any moment.”
“Yes!”
With a response, the subordinate who received the order quickly left to contact Erwin, who had been continuously preparing inside City of Fury.
