Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 713 - 676 Wide Variety of Species

Chapter 713: Chapter 676: Wide Variety of Species Chapter 713: Chapter 676: Wide Variety of Species After several days of reconnaissance, Rocky had basically figured out the distribution of demons at Red Water Lake and had marked their specific locations on the map. Next, he intended to eliminate all these demons, clearing the landing obstruction for Thunderhawk City.

Soon after, the warships that had dispersed quickly reassembled and headed straight towards a stone forest on the West Bank.

The so-called stone forest was essentially an area of rocky hills. Whether formed naturally or ruined by demon actions, it was filled with abandoned stone ruins very close to Red Water Lake on the West Bank. Most importantly, it was also a massive demon gathering point. Inside, no fewer than a thousand demons laid siege, making it Rocky’s primary target for eradication.

“Order the fleet to reduce altitude.”

Leading the fleet over the stone forest, Rocky had the ships gradually descend while he, clad in White Demon Armor, launched himself into the air to survey the area below.

Looking down, he soon spotted numerous stone ruins on the land. However, more crucially, among these stones lay countless demons.

Black-eyed Demons.

Bull-horned Demons.

Mole Demons.

Poison Fang Demons.

Given that Red Water Lake was quite far from Backhill Village, the varieties of demons were not limited to Black-eyed Demons and Bull-horned Demons. Rocky roughly spotted at least four types of demons in the stone forest, their numbers mingling into the thousands!

“Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!”

“Shreeek!”

“Yooh… Yooh…”

As Rocky looked towards these demons on the ground, the thousands of demons entrenched in the stone forest spotted him and the fleet as well. A chorus of roars ensued as thousands of demons bellowed towards the sky simultaneously.

The combined roars of thousands of demons fused into a wave of sound that rushed from the ground to the sky. Given the large quantity and variety of demons present, their collective roar mixed several sounds together, turning an already unbearable noise even more displeasing.

“Void Magic Corps, move out to protect the fleet, in case of attacks by Flying Demons.”

Gazing at the demons in the stone forest, Rocky mobilized the Void Magic Corps to protect the fleet, preventing any surprise attacks by flying demons during the bombing process.

Shortly after this order was issued, ten squads of Void Magic Warriors appeared in midair. They then dispersed around the fleet, beginning their vigilance.

“Prepare to attack!”

Once everything was ready, Rocky gave the order to attack. One hundred and sixty Rune Battleships adjusted their cannons simultaneously, aiming all secondary guns at the ground.

“Fire!”

As Rocky gave the order, the warship, which was already aiming all its cannons toward the land, fired in unison. Hundreds of cannon muzzles lit up in an instant, and the sound of bombardment immediately fused into a single, deafening roar, easily drowning out the agonized screams of the demons.

But this was just the beginning, for at the very moment the cannon fire sounded, even more intense noises arose.

Countless mana cannonballs flew out of the cannons and instantly slammed into the ground, completely upheaving Stone Forest in a cataclysm.

After modifications, the Rune Battleship’s secondary magic energy power had reached 3000 points. The power of each cannonball was terrifying; each one, when it hit the ground, was capable of causing immense destruction, and such killing power was something even demons couldn’t withstand.

When the bombardment began, Rocky didn’t rush back to the fleet. He hovered in midair, so he could clearly see the tremendous damage inflicted on the demons in Stone Forest by the Rune Battleship’s cannons.

From his perspective, the area of the bombardment covered the entire Stone Forest. Countless entrenched demons were instantly shattered into pieces, and even more were blasted into the air. Under the explosive force, these demons were hurled over ten meters high, as if they were mere pebbles being flicked upwards.

But one had to admit, the demons were indeed true monsters. Even though they faced such a brutal attack, their performance was still chillingly formidable.

Take, for example, those demons blown into the air. Even though they were blasted more than ten meters up, when they heavily fell back to the ground, a considerable number managed to get back up, particularly the robust Bull-horned Demons. These colossal creatures seemed unnaturally strong. Unless hit directly by a bombardment, the blast’s reach hardly injured them, and those not directly hit continued to roar at the sky, showing no fear at all.

As for the less common Poison Fang Demons, they caused Rocky to frown even more. These demons, over three meters long and resembling giant lizards, had mouths full of sharp and venomous teeth. A bite from them could poison someone to death if it didn’t kill outright. Moreover, these demons had incredibly strong biting power, capable of crushing Void Magic Armor, and importantly, they could also burrow underground.

Right after the bombardment started, a significant number of Poison Fang Demons instantly burrowed underground, barely suffering any harm from the first round of bombardment.

“Hmph…”

Watching the Bull-horned Demons roaring amidst the bombing, and the giant holes appearing on the ground, Rocky scoffed coldly. He admitted that these demons were really tough challengers, but in the face of the powerful attack capability of the Rune Battleship, they were all just inconveniences.

As the bombing continued, the previously unyielding Bull-horned Demons stopped their roaring. Under the intense bombardment, these massive creatures soon suffered a devastating blow. More and more Bull-horned Demons were directly hit by cannonballs, instantly being blown to smithereens.

Though the Poison Fang Demons hiding underground had dodged the first few rounds of attack, as the bombing continued for a while, the ground was literally blasted away layer by layer. The hiding Poison Fang Demons were forcibly expelled from the ground, and once blown out, even the Bull-horned Demons couldn’t compare; they were instantly turned into a bloody mess.

Seeing this sight, Rocky finally let his guard down, reassured that it wouldn’t be long before all the demons in Stone Forest would be obliterated, thus clearing this demon stronghold.

However, just as he had begun to relax, suddenly, out of the smoky Stone Forest, a huge rock fiercely shot out!

Because the rock flew out so unexpectedly, Rocky barely had time to think before he hurriedly dodged. Following that, he heard a loud crash behind him, and turning around, he discovered that the rock he’d dodged had hit a War God Escort Ship, smashing the ship’s hull inward!

“This…!”

Seeing this, he quickly looked back toward Stone Forest, and then through the billowing smoke, he discovered… the rocks in Stone Forest were standing up!

It turned out those weren’t rocks at all, but demons!
