Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 705 - 668 Bidirectional Testing

Chapter 705: Chapter 668: Bidirectional Testing Chapter 705: Chapter 668: Bidirectional Testing Rocky wanted to personally test the new methods, and although his actions did not surprise Archimonde, he had thought Rocky would just casually fire a couple of shots onto the land. However, to his astonishment, Rocky actually wanted to witness the new warship’s combat abilities in action?

This left Archimonde rather perplexed. There were no enemies around Backhill Village, not even Demons. Where would Rocky find combat to test the warship’s capabilities?

Soon, he had his answer.

After giving Archimonde a slight smile, Rocky immediately got Uncle Wil in touch with Felly aboard the War God Escort Ship, and ordered Felly to commence an attack on the War Steed!

“Wait a minute!”

Upon hearing Rocky’s command, Archimonde immediately sprang into action!

“Rocky, this is no joke! The firepower of the warship’s secondary artillery is up to 3000, and the main cannon’s firepower is even at 15000. The defensive net of the War Steed won’t be able to withstand it!”

Rocky’s move had truly terrified Archimonde.

Although he had always stayed in Thunderhawk City, he had already obtained detailed data on the new model warships through the Chamber of Commerce and was very aware of the new warship’s combat strength.

The firepower of the secondary artillery of the new warship had already surpassed that of the main artillery on warships of the same class, while the main cannon’s power of the new warship was considered the ultimate in the skies. Ten cannons, each with a firepower of 15000, could unleash destruction rivaling the City-Destroyer Cannon when fired simultaneously!

All these figures were authentic, which meant that the combat capabilities of the new warship had already surpassed almost all Fifth Generation battleships. Rocky’s War Steed had no chance against it, and if he really let the new Armor fire at it in a moment of confusion, it would result in the century’s most monumental blunder.

Hence upon hearing Rocky’s order, Archimonde hastily intervened to stop him.

Unfortunately, his reaction was still a beat too slow. Just after Rocky had finished issuing the order, Uncle Wil had already passed it on to Felly using the communicator. Then, with a wave to the crew inside the bridge, the defensive net of the War Steed was deployed.

Uncle Wil’s fluid series of actions left no chance for Archimonde to interject. By the time he desperately tried to stop it, everything was already too late. As the defensive net of the War Steed was deployed, Archimonde turned his head to look in the distance and saw the new warship had already aimed all its cannons right at them!

“Rocky, don’t joke around! Stop it right now!”

After a glance at the cannons aiming at him, Archimonde immediately shouted to Rocky, truly panicking this time.

Yet, faced with his desperate attempts to stop him, Rocky remained very calm, gesturing not to worry; he had everything under control.

And it was at that moment that a deafening cannonade erupted!

Under Felly’s command, the new warship quickly aimed its cannons at the War Steed and without hesitation chose to fire. The instant Archimonde heard the booming, he closed his eyes, a myriad of curses racing through his mind.

But as he waited with his eyes closed for two seconds, he noticed nothing amiss – no explosion, not even a slight shake. Other than the ceaseless roaring of artillery, there was silence.

This involuntary led him to open his eyes and look across, where he saw dozens of secondary cannons on the new warship continuously firing at the War Steed. Propelled by the Rune, the cannonballs, each like a bright, large meteor, fell without exception upon the War Steed’s defensive net.

But when faced with the continuous bombardment of dozens of secondary cannons, the defensive net of the War Steed did not budge a single thread. It didn’t break or show any signs of change. The meteor-like cannon shells disappeared upon contact, similar to droplets of water melting into the vast sea.

Upon seeing this scene, Archimonde finally took a deep breath of relief and suddenly understood what was happening.

He remembered that although the War Steed was just a Fifth-Generation Battleship, it had undergone rune enhancement. And since it was Rocky’s flagship, the extent of its modifications were likely larger and more comprehensive than other warships, therefore its defensive power remained quite formidable.

At the same time, it seemed Rocky was allowing the new warship to target and fire at him, but only secondary cannons were being used. Although these secondary cannons possessed a magic energy power of 3000 points, nearly equivalent to an ordinary warship’s main cannon, they were still inconsequential compared to the modified defensive net of the War Steed.

Thinking this, Archimonde nodded to himself in ease. Thankfully, Rocky wasn’t insane. He had only allowed the new warship’s secondary cannons to fire. If he had ordered the main cannons to open fire just now, a single shot with 15000 points of power would have reduced the War Steed to rubble.

Just as Archimonde was secretly relieved that Rocky hadn’t lost his mind, he noticed the main cannons on the new warship starting to swivel!

As the new warship aimed its main cannon at the War Steed, Archimonde forgot to intervene and took a sharp breath of cold air.

Simultaneously, a thunderous boom sounded as the main cannon of the new warship fired, a violent beam of light shooting towards the War Steed!

The sound of this firing was so loud that everyone aboard the two warships felt their ears ringing.

The power of this shot was so immense that it caused the new warship to tilt.

After the shot, a booming noise erupted as the enormous light beam instantly struck the defensive net, turning it snow white. The entire warship shook violently and then…

There was no “then” after that.

As the bright glow of the defensive net disappeared, looking outside, one would find both warships intact. Both Rocky’s War Steed and Felly’s commanded new warship were floating calmly in the air.

“How, how is this possible…”

Realizing he was still alive and seeing the War Steed undamaged, even the defensive net unbroken, Archimonde was stunned because this was utterly impossible!

Even with rune enhancement, the War Steed’s defensive net couldn’t possibly be that strong! The main cannon of the new warship had a power of 15000 points! How could the War Steed’s defensive net have survived such a powerful blast without shattering? This defied all logic!

While Archimonde was dumbstruck, a crew member ran up to Uncle Wil and whispered something to him, and then Uncle Wil approached Rocky and reported respectfully, “City Lord, the damage rate to the defensive net has been calculated. The damage rate is fifteen percent!”

“Oh? That much?”

Hearing such a report, Rocky showed a trace of surprise and then turned to Archimonde, “Lord Archimonde, the firepower of the new warship is indeed very powerful.”

While saying this, Rocky nodded in satisfaction. However, Archimonde opposite him was already in shock. His mind still echoed with Uncle Wil’s report—the defensive net’s damage rate was, was actually only fifteen percent… Struck by a main cannon with 15000 points of power, how could the damage rate of the defensive net be so low!?
