Lord of the Sky City

Leading the Void Magic Squad, Rocky charged at the demons first, swinging his scythe vigorously, and with each swing, demons would fall into pools of blood.

The Magic Fang Scythe was incredibly sharp, and before it, even the monstrous Demons appeared feeble. The Black-eyed Demons, to say the least, were like they had been skinned, already weak in defense, which meant they stood no chance against the sharp scythe.

Compared to the slightly less defended Black-eyed Demons, the massive Bull-horned Demons were known for their strong defense. Not only were they huge in size, but they also had a layer of scale armor, which made them look like a bull covered with fish scales—bizarre, but the defense of the scale armor was extremely robust. Ordinary weapons were almost completely ineffective against it, and even attacks with Mana Weapons or Swords specially designed for Armors were not very effective. It would be impressive to just manage to damage the scale armor.

But even the Bull-horned Demons, with such extraordinary defensive power, were no match for the Magic Fang Scythe!

After slicing two Black-eyed Demons in half with a single stroke, Rocky leaped into the air, then immediately dove downward, landing right in front of a Bull-horned Demon, and while falling, slashed diagonally with his scythe. The blade sheared through, cutting off half of the massive demon's chest and causing its torso along with its head to fall to the ground, while the rest of the body remained upright.

One strike, and a Bull-horned Demon was slain!

But then Rocky didn't even have time to rest as he immediately targeted another Bull-horned Demon.

It wasn't Rocky's first time at the forefront of battle, so he knew exactly what he should do at this moment.

Trying to hold back the demons all by himself was simply impossible. Not to mention he was alone, even ten warriors clad in White Demon Armor couldn't stop the advance of the demons. Therefore, his current mission wasn't to eradicate all the demons in sight but to eliminate as many formidable opponents that could pose a threat to the Guard Corps as possible!

It was with this mindset that Rocky, surrounded by demons, had only one target in his eyes—the Bull-horned Demons.

In this wasteland, there were only two types of demons: the Black-eyed and the Bull-horned. Compared to the Black-eyed, the Bull-horned were larger, stronger in defense, and their attacks unmatched. If such demons were to charge towards the Guard Corps, even the best formations would be shattered. Hence, Rocky only needed to focus on slaying these monsters.

Not just by himself, Rocky also issued orders to Robin and the other team members to primarily target the Bull-horned Demons.

Upon receiving his command, Robin and the squad members immediately charged at the Bull-horned Demons closest to them, but their killing speed was visibly slower. Ordinary team members often struggled to kill a Bull-horned Demon even after several rounds, and even Robin had to put in a lot of effort to take down one.

There was no helping it, since even if Robin's squad was fully equipped with Fifth Generation Armor, and Robin himself wore Special Armor of the same generation, their weapons simply could not match the sharpness of the Magic Fang Scythe. Often, they needed several strikes to truly injure a Bull-horned Demon, naturally slowing down their kill speed.

Furthermore, as everyone focused their attacks on the Bull-horned Demons, it diverted attention away from the far more numerous Black-eyed Demons.

With no one paying them any heed, some Black-eyed Demons circled around Rocky and the others, but more of them charged toward the Guard Corps.

However, before getting close to the Guard Corps, these Demons had to face two other formidable opponents—that was the two Tank Type 1 Armors, already waiting in battle formation at the front!

Confronting the charging Demons, Caryus and Raphael, piloting the Tank Armors, did not hesitate to open fire!

Under their operation, the Magic Energy Cannons on the shoulders of the two Tank Type 1 Armors immediately roared to life, continuously firing Mana Cannonballs at the swarming Demons. Although not as powerful as a warship's bombardment, it was enough to blast the Demons head over heels.

The only pity was that there were too few Tank Type 1 Armors—just two. Their shelling couldn't form an effective attack net; hence, although many Demons were killed by the shelling, even more Demons continued their charge, braving through the artillery fire.

As more and more Demons rapidly approached, Caryus and Raphael immediately ceased fire and switched to the mid-range attack of the Magic Energy Beam at the waist of the Armor.

One after another, Magic Energy Beams were fired in succession. Although the hit rate wasn't particularly high, any Demon struck would inevitably be left with a gaping hole, and many Demons were felled this way.

After that, countless Magic Energy Bullets also shot out from the arms of the two Tank Type 1 Armors!

Designed specifically for ground battles, the arms of the Tank Type 1 were modified to become barrels capable of continuous Magic Energy Bullet fire. So when Caryus and Raphael began shooting, the two Armors fired off rounds of Magic Bullets like machine guns.

Under this strafing, the Demons that had survived the previous bombardment and the Magic Energy Beams, and had managed to approach, were instantly shot into sieves. And as the two Armors kept shooting, the first wave of Demons that had charged over was quickly and uniformly hit, leaving not a single one able to reach the Guard Corps.

Without a doubt, Caryus and Raphael had put their all into stopping the Demons. Although they only had two Armors, their relentless assault left dozens of Demons lying on the ground, a feat comparable even to that of Special Armor.

But, as before, the Tank Type 1 Armors were too few. After Caryus and Raphael had sprayed a round of Magic Energy Bullets at the approaching Demons, although the nearest ones were swept away, even more Demons charged through, finally reaching the vicinity of the Guard Corps!

"All men! Raise your shields!"

Seeing that the Tank Type 1 Armors could no longer prevent the Demons from getting close, Monte, who was commanding the Guard Corps, shouted out, and immediately all the members behind him raised their Magic Energy Shields and activated the Magic Stones on them.

The Guard Corps had already been fully equipped with new gear, and the shields they were holding were genuine Three-Star Magic Armor. So upon activating the Magic Stones, the shields immediately lit up with radiance.

And it was at the very moment when all the Guards had made their battle preparations that a large number of Black-eyed Demons surged past the two Tank Type 1 Armors, viciously pouncing toward them!
