Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 802 - 784: The Might of Asura!

Chapter 802 -784: The Might of Asura!

Looking at Sky City already in sight, Rocky glanced at Orton and nodded.

Seeing his nod, Orton immediately picked up the communicator, his face brimming with excitement as he gave the command to the fully charged batteries: “Fire!”

As his order echoed, the muzzles of thirty Asura Cannons lit up with dazzling light one after another. The glow persisted, growing increasingly intense, and only after two or three minutes of accumulation did they finally fire.

With an earth-shattering roar, the first Asura Cannon’s muzzle unleashed a blinding burst of light, followed by the second, third, fourth—until all thirty Asura Cannons discharged their stored energy in succession.

The massive magic-energy projectiles they fired streaked through the air like meteors. Their high energy density rendered them as dazzling as colossal fireballs, capturing everyone’s attention in an instant.

As previously mentioned, just before Rocky fired the Asura Cannons, the five Sky Cities encircling Thunderhawk City had only just launched their respective fleets. At this moment, tens of thousands of warships hovered in midair, and when the Asura Cannons’ giant projectiles were unleashed, they became a spectacle that all the warship crews witnessed with slackened jaws and widened eyes.

What… what are those things?

Faced with the looming gigantic fireballs, the ship crews were dumbfounded. No one knew what they were looking at. In truth, it wasn’t just them—even the five City Lords, who had left their mansions to oversee the situation personally from the skyports, had no idea what these were.

“That Rocky… he’s definitely cooked up another new weapon,” Howling Sky muttered.

Though he didn’t know what these fireballs were, Howling Sky, having spent a great deal of time dealing with Rocky, was undoubtedly the person most familiar with him among The Three Great Alliances. The moment he saw dozens of gigantic fireballs emerging from Thunderhawk City, he knew this must be another one of Rocky’s bizarre weapon creations.

This realization brought Howling Sky a sense of relief. He could clearly tell that, although these enormous fireballs were headed in his general direction, their target was not him but Tiger Swallow City. This eased his worries significantly, for even he wouldn’t dare assume that Sirius City could emerge unscathed when faced with Rocky’s unpredictable arsenal of secret weapons.

With this in mind, Howling Sky shifted his gaze to the city beside him—Tiger Swallow City, the clear target of the Asura Cannons.

Unlike Sirius City, Tiger Swallow City was one of the oldest and most prestigious Sky Cities within the Sky Alliance. Legend had it that Tiger Swallow City had joined the alliance back when the Sky Alliance was still a modest faction. Over time, it had grown from a small Sky City into a giant metropolitan Sky City—or more accurately, a super Sky City. With a population exceeding 200,000 people, Tiger Swallow City was on a scale that Sirius City couldn’t match.

A city of this magnitude naturally possessed formidable capabilities in every respect. Without delving into specifics, its deployed forces alone dwarfed Sirius City’s several times over, which was a testament to its immense power.

At this moment, Tiger Swallow City’s City Lord, like Howling Sky, had also arrived at the skyport and noted the massive fireballs heading straight for his city.

However, there wasn’t a trace of panic on the City Lord’s face. Instead, he appeared utterly dismissive.

As mentioned earlier, Tiger Swallow City was a stalwart veteran of the Sky Alliance that had developed step by step from a minor Sky City to its current prominence. The City Lord position had already been passed down through three generations, and the city had weathered so many major events that they were essentially uncountable. As a result, in the eyes of its City Lord, Rocky’s rebellion was nothing more than a petty trick. How could a city as powerful as theirs fear such a clownish attack?

Thus, the City Lord issued an indifferent order to activate the defensive net, supposedly a mere formality to counter the oncoming attack.

In truth, even this gesture seemed unnecessary to the Tiger Swallow City Lord. In his view, the fireballs launched by Thunderhawk City wouldn’t even reach the defensive net—they might not even bypass his deployed fleet. After all, he had dispatched a full two thousand warships, forming an impenetrable barrier in front of the city. At most, those fireballs could strike a few ships but would never pose a threat to the city itself.

With this mindset, Tiger Swallow City’s City Lord stood calm and unshaken at the skyport. It was at this moment that the Asura Cannon projectiles reached the vanguard of the city’s fleet and, as everyone anticipated, smashed into one of the warships.

Scoring a direct hit on a ship with the first shot wasn’t a testament to the cannons’ accuracy. The truth was, the cannons’ true target was Tiger Swallow City itself. The reason a ship was struck first lay purely in the fleet’s unfortunate positioning—the projectiles were massive, and the sheer number of ships made them unavoidable.

Seeing this, the Tiger Swallow City Lord chuckled dismissively, as it confirmed his expectations: the colossal fireballs would never breach his city’s defenses and were destined to be blocked by his fleet.

But in the instant of his chuckle, an utterly jaw-dropping moment unfolded. The fireball-like projectile consumed the struck warship entirely upon contact. More astonishingly, the projectile neither detonated nor slowed down, barreling forward toward Tiger Swallow City with undiminished speed.

All who witnessed this scene were stunned, their eyes widening in disbelief. They watched helplessly as the fireball carved a fiery path through the fleet, consuming every ship it touched. Ultimately, the projectile bypassed the entire fleet and hurtled toward Tiger Swallow City itself!

Impossible!

This outcome was beyond everyone’s expectations, leaving even the previously composed Tiger Swallow City Lord utterly dumbfounded.

Before anyone could even process this shock, the first Asura Cannon projectile struck Tiger Swallow City directly!

With a deafening explosion, the bewildered Tiger Swallow City Lord was blinded by an intense white light. The impact of the projectile against the defensive net generated a radiance so powerful that neither he nor his soldiers, nor even the city’s 200,000 residents, could open their eyes. Once the light finally subsided, the City Lord raised his gaze toward the defensive net and was stunned to see it rippling violently with wave after wave of energy.

Anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of Sky Cities knew that their defensive nets were virtually impervious. Typically, no attack could even make the net flinch. However, if a defensive net of this caliber began to ripple so furiously, it could only mean one thing—it had suffered catastrophic damage!
