Following Kyle’s instructions, Rocky immediately disengaged from the battle with the Imperial Knight Order and turned to fly toward the rear battlefield.
His departure quickly caught the attention of the Imperial Knight Order; soon after, two members followed in pursuit. However, these two had only chased halfway when they were jointedly brought down by Abbas and Luca.
In this manner, Rocky quickly freed himself and swiftly approached the main force that was in combat.
Since both fleets had already commenced close-quarters combat, perhaps not yet in a melee, but the distance between the fleets was already very close, so as City Lord Rocky flew backward toward the troops near the Armored Ship Troops, it did not take him long to reach the battlefield of the Void Magic Corps.
He had initially departed from here to aid Kyle and the others, and now he had returned to this same battlefield. However, the situation on the battlefield had drastically changed from before.
Previously, the Void Magic Warriors from both sides were constantly clashing. Even though the Alliance Army had a slight advantage in numbers, the Imperial Army fought fiercely, and the battle was a stalemate. But now, the situation had changed. The Imperial Army’s Sky Demon Warriors were no longer desperately fighting against the Alliance Army but were mostly circling and retreating, clearly stalling for time.

Realizing the enemy’s strategy, Rocky immediately understood Kyle’s purpose in sending him here, and right after, he sprang into action.
Subsequently, he increased the speed of his Armor and charged towards the nearest enemy!
As he rushed into the battlefield, the Imperial Army’s Sky Demon Warriors had not yet reacted. No one noticed that the God of Slaughter had descended eerily and silently; even the Void Magic Warrior nearest to Rocky kept his attention focused on his opponent, constantly dodging and weaving in the air, avoiding his opponent’s attacks.
But in the next instant, both the Imperial Army’s Sky Demon Warrior and the Alliance Army’s Sky Demon Warrior engaging with him saw a white light flash before their eyes, whooshing by and disappearing without a trace.
This scene left the Alliance Army’s Sky Demon Warrior, who was continuously shooting Magic Energy Bullets, stunned on the spot. By the time he regained his senses and looked towards his opponent, he found that his opponent’s head had separated from his body, falling through the air.
What happened…
Watching his opponent’s body plummeting downward, the Alliance Army’s Sky Demon Warrior was dumbfounded, taking a long time to process what had happened. When he seemed to comprehend something and looked in the direction where the white light had disappeared, he saw a series of corpses of the Imperial Army’s Sky Demon Warriors dropping from the sky!
In that brief instant, Rocky had streaked through the battlefield, and in the blink of an eye, he had slain five or six of the Imperial Army’s Sky Demon Warriors!
Such a feat was certainly trivial for him. With the sharpness of the Magic Fang Scythe and the speed of the White Demon Armor, Rocky didn’t even need to do much—his only task was to hold the Scythe aloft, then fly past the enemy. Just like that, the sharp Scythe, with the White Demon’s ultra-fast speed, was enough to cut the enemy in two!

But what was nothing out of the ordinary for him was inconceivable to others. Facing such a sudden turn of events, everyone was shocked, all the Alliance Army’s Sky Demon Warriors who had lost their enemies were left hanging in midair, dumbly staring at the place where Rocky had disappeared.
Meanwhile, City Lord Rocky had already flown deep into the battlefield, leaving a trail of blood spraying wherever he went, every enemy on his path cut in two by his blade!
Only at this moment did someone realize what was happening, and then someone, not knowing who, shouted through the loudspeaker of their Armor.
"It’s the White Demon!"
In such a battlefield, the shout of one person would normally count for little, but this time was different. As his voice rang out, the whole battlefield seemed to pause for a moment, as if every Void Magic Warrior, be they from the Alliance or the Empire, had come to a brief halt.
Immediately thereafter, in that split second, both sides had different reactions!
"It’s City Lord Rocky! City Lord Rocky has arrived!"
Spotting the White Demon Armor, the morale of the Alliance Army surged immediately.
As previously mentioned, when Rocky had ambushed the Rebel Army, the Alliance had widely publicized his deeds. This propaganda had not only influenced the general public, making them regard Rocky as a hero of the Alliance, but also impacted the soldiers in the military, especially within the Void Magic Corps.
Rocky, clad in the White Demon Armor and being a member of the Alliance, was already well-known by the name and deeds among the Alliance’s Void Magic Warriors. This, along with the Alliance’s deliberate propaganda, earned him considerable prestige among the Void Magic Warriors of the Alliance Army.
That’s why, when Rocky was recognized at this moment, the morale of the Alliance’s Void Magic Warriors was boosted on the spot.
In such a critical battle, at such a crucial moment, to have a hero fighting alongside them was a huge inspiration to the common warrior, an encouragement too profound to be described in words. More importantly, the renown of the White Demon Armor was well-known among the Void Magic Warriors, so his presence almost acted as a stabilizing pill, instantly steadying the spirits of all the Alliance’s Void Magic Warriors.
However, the same event, when witnessed by the Imperial Army, had an entirely different effect.
The reputation of the White Demon was also known by the Imperial Army’s Void Magic Warriors, and many from the Imperial Sky Demon Squad had already experienced the White Demon’s fearsomeness firsthand in earlier battles. Therefore, when the Imperial Army realized Rocky had appeared, a shadow fell over the hearts of everyone, from the squad leaders to the rank-and-file.
Moreover, figuring out how to deal with Rocky had become a significant dilemma for the Imperial Army.
To leave Rocky unattended was absolutely out of the question. On a battlefield devoid of an equal opponent, the White Demon was like a harvester of death, capable of endlessly reaping the lives of his enemies, so he simply could not be left unchecked.
But what should be done?
The Imperial Army’s elite Imperial Knight Order had joined the fight but was currently tangled up with the Fierce Tiger Squad, unable to extricate themselves. Yet, facing the infamous White Demon Armor, who on the battlefield could stop Rocky if not for the members of the Knight Order?
"All squad leaders, follow me!"
In a desperate bid to stop Rocky, the squad leaders of the Imperial Sky Demon Squad, left with no other choice, organized themselves into a squad comprised entirely of squad leaders, and quickly moved toward Rocky!
They planned to use this tactic to block Rocky’s advance, fighting for time for the Fleet to clinch the victory!
