Lord of the Sky City

"What do you think the Fierce Tiger Squad is?"

After giving Rocky a glance, Clara asked coldly.

Faced with her retort, Rocky was initially stunned and then furrowed his brows.

Over the past two weeks, he had become quite familiar with the people of the Fierce Tiger Squad. The squad leader, Kyle, had a fiery temper, always roaring even under normal circumstances, but he was nonetheless a decent person. Abbas, whom Rocky had met first, was a warm-hearted and easy-going man who had the best relationship with Rocky. Luca, a strong man, also had a good relationship with Rocky. The rest of the members were more or less the same; their relationships weren't great, but still manageable.

However, Clara, who was sitting right on the ground near Rocky, was an exception.

Clara's personality was relatively cold. She wasn't very close to the other members of the squad, and she paid even less attention to Rocky, clearly showing a distinct rejection of him.

This rejection was easy to understand because Clara never considered Rocky a true warrior. She always felt that someone pampered like the City Lord of Sky City shouldn't even be in her presence.

Perhaps that was why she was so cold and even blunt with her questioning.

Of course, Rocky didn't care much about her attitude. After all, he wasn't going to stay in the squad forever, so as long as things were acceptable on the surface, that was fine. What really bothered him, though, were Clara's words.

What had he made of the Fierce Tiger Squad?

Rocky really wanted to ask Clara in return, what did she think of this squad?

Having spent a significant amount of time together, Rocky had naturally learned that the Fierce Tiger Squad belonged to Blue Crune, and as a member of the Sky Alliance, he had certainly heard of the reputation of this unit. Thus, he regarded the Fierce Tiger Squad highly.

In fact, through the days of interaction and especially the training they had undergone together, Rocky had discovered that the Fierce Tiger Squad was indeed a very formidable team. Not to mention anything else, just the individual qualities of each member were astonishingly high. By his estimate, the members of this squad should all be either Level 7 or Level 8 warriors, and their squad leader, Kyle, might even be a Level 9 warrior. Each member's combat ability was undoubtedly strong.

However, this was, after all, only a squad!

Even a ten-person Void Magic Squad, no matter how strong, consisted of only ten people. That was precisely what Rocky wanted to question Clara about. A ten-person squad, even if all were elite among elites, top among aces, what difference could they make?

What level of war is currently underway?

This is a top-tier massive battle where any small fight might involve thousands of warships! In such a high-level war, what can a ten-person squad do, even if they tear the skies apart?

Therefore, once Clara had finished speaking, Rocky looked at her, shook his head, and decided not to continue the topic.

That made the atmosphere somewhat awkward, and almost no one spoke until lunch ended.

After silently finishing lunch, everyone was initially ready to head to the training field for the afternoon session, but Kyle led them to a tent instead.

As Kyle entered the tent, everyone stood in line in front of him, and Kyle got straight to the point:

"Everyone, prepare yourself, we are joining the fight tomorrow."

As he looked at everyone, Kyle announced without any preamble that their mission had arrived!

After two weeks of waiting, the Fierce Tiger Squad finally received their first combat mission since entering the war zone, and after two weeks of training, Rocky was finally ready to fight as well!

After stating this, Kyle went on to explain the task to everyone.

According to him, the Alliance Army was gearing up for a major operation!

Previously mentioned, since the Imperial Army had stationed in the war zone and due to its inherent strength slightly exceeding that of the Alliance Army, especially after absorbing all the Rebel Army, the Imperial forces had become extremely formidable. Under such circumstances, the Alliance Army, led by Wilton, could only adopt a defensive stance to avoid direct confrontation. Even so, in the recent minor conflicts, the Alliance Army had mostly been on the losing side.

This situation had a significant impact on the Alliance Army, so much so that even Rocky noticed, and as the chief commander, Wilton was undoubtedly aware.

But Wilton, after all, was a renowned general of the Sky Alliance. He understood that one should not rush decisions on the battlefield. Therefore, he didn't act immediately; on one hand, he dealt with enemy harassment, and on the other, he was actively making preparations, preparing for a large battle!

Facing such a formidable opponent as the Imperial Army, to reverse the low morale and simultaneously crush the enemy's spirit, minor skirmishes wouldn't suffice; a major victory was essential. Hence, Wilton had always been making preparations in this aspect.

Now, everything was finally ready. Under Wilton's planning, a large-scale offensive was about to erupt!

Wilton had assembled three massive Sky Cities, over three thousand warships, and fifty Void Magic Squads, ready to launch a large-scale attack on the Imperial Army!

This time, Rocky and the Fierce Tiger Squad's mission was to participate in this grand offensive, representing the Void Magic Corps!

In just a few words, Kyle had briefed everyone on the situation of the battle, and then, quite unusually, gave everyone half a day off. After all, they would be mobilizing with the main army the next day, and everyone needed time to prepare and adjust their state.

Once everything was arranged properly, Kyle left the tent. As the captain of the Fierce Tiger Squad, his tasks were indeed heavier than those of ordinary squad leaders, for a top combat force like the Fierce Tiger Squad was bound to have special missions and arrangements in battle.

No sooner had he left than the tent became lively.

"Finally, we can go into battle!"

As soon as Kyle left, Luca, as robust as a mountain, began excitedly waving his sack-like fists and shouting, "Damn it, I've been stifled these days. Finally, I can go into battle!"

"Exactly, training every day was so boring. Finally, we can go to the battlefield."

"I'm so happy... by the way, are there any special arrangements this time?"

"Do you even need to ask? Of course there are! How could we be like everyone else!"

"I wonder if the Empire's Knight Order has arrived. It would be great to encounter them this time."

"Don't know, haven't heard any news about that."

"Knight Order?"

As everyone was excitedly discussing the upcoming battle, Rocky asked a question on the side.

"The Imperial Knight Order, haven't you heard of them?"

On hearing his question, a team member named Westwood looked at him and then explained, "The Imperial Knight Order, reputed to be the Kafka Empire's most elite Void Magic Corps."

"Stronger than the Blue Crune?"

"Don't know."

Shaking his head, Westwood showed a regretful expression: "Although there have always been minor frictions between the Alliance and the Empire, a war of this scale is unprecedented, so we haven't really crossed swords before. But...surely we are a bit stronger! Haha!"

"Of course! The Blue Crune is definitely stronger!"

"Do you even need to ask!"
