Four Sky Cities entered the battlefield, marking the end of the battle—it had to end.

While the Alliance Army’s patrol cruisers might have been relatively intact, and the Armored Ship Troops still capable of fighting, once the Sky Cities entered the battlefield, the Imperial Army’s troops could retreat into the city. At that point, any attack would become meaningless unless they could destroy the Sky Cities outright, but with the current military strength of the Alliance Army, that clearly wasn’t feasible.

Therefore, after this, both sides’ troops separately withdrew, with the Alliance Army’s troops lined up in front of their own three Sky Cities, and the Imperial Army’s troops retreating back into the city. Then, the four Sky Cities withdrew from the battlefield.

With the Imperial Army’s four Sky Cities completely withdrawn from the battlefield, it signified the Alliance Army’s victory in this battle!

The booming of gunfire sounded again at this moment, but this time not for attack, but for celebration. As the Imperial Army’s Sky Cities retreated, the Alliance Army fired all their guns as a salute to send off the defeated Imperial Army.

No wonder the Alliance Army was so jubilant; this victory was too significant for them. Before this, although the sides had been at a stalemate for a long time with constant frictions, the Alliance Army had never achieved a truly significant victory, and had more often lost than won. Thus, today’s victory was of tremendous significance to the entire war zone’s Alliance Army.

This battle wasn’t just a minor skirmish but a major conflict involving seven Sky Cities, with both sides deploying over six thousand warships. In this major battle, the Alliance Army, at the cost of losing more than a thousand warships, obliterated nearly two thousand of the Imperial Army’s warships, achieving a truly remarkable victory. Hence, everyone’s high spirits were only natural.

Once the Imperial Army’s Sky Cities had retreated and disappeared from sight, Wilton directed his troops back to the three Sky Cities. However, these three Sky Cities did not withdraw but stayed on the battlefield. At the same time, the rear forces and Sky Cities also hastened to the scene, making this battlefield the frontline for the Alliance Army, which would not retreat.

......

......

All the troops returned to the Sky City, and naturally, Rocky and the Fierce Tiger Squad followed the main forces into the base camp of the Void Magic Corps inside the city.

When the Imperial Army withdrew from the main battleground, the Imperial Knight Order that had been constantly entangled with the Fierce Tiger Squad also departed with the main forces. The outcome of this battle was a draw, except for the sniper killed by Rocky; the Imperial Knight Order had no other casualties. Similarly, the Fierce Tiger Squad also had all members survive until the end.

However, the most exhausted in this battle was not the Fierce Tiger Squad but Rocky, who continually rushed across the battlefield.

This battle had completely exhausted him, but equally, his contribution to this battle was unmatched. It’s no exaggeration to say that the Alliance Army could achieve such an overwhelming victory with at least half the credit due to him.

If it weren’t for him freeing numerous Void Magic Warriors, Wilton’s battleship fleet definitely couldn’t have lasted that long. Otherwise, if the Imperial Army had managed to conclude the battle on the main front first, the outcome of this battle could have been reversed.

Therefore, after returning to the temporary camp, Rocky immediately crawled into his tent and collapsed onto the bed to sleep, and of course, he was not the only one exhausted. The other members of the Fierce Tiger Squad did the same, with even the usually loud Captain Kyle immediately resting after leading the squad back to the camp.

Just like that, time quickly moved to the next day.

As they had just engaged in a significant battle, Rocky and others involved in the fight were definitely not assigned any combat tasks, and due to the battle being extremely grueling, Kyle even unusually gave everyone a day off from the daily training. Stay connected via Freewebnovel

"Rocky, what kind of technology did the White Demon Armor carry to be so fast?" Kyle asked.

"Yeah, tell us about it!"

With no training scheduled, everyone gathered the next morning for a casual chat, naturally revolving around the events of the previous day’s battle.

At the beginning, everyone started discussing the Imperial Knight Order, and inevitably, the conversation turned to Rocky and the White Demon Armor he wore. In yesterday’s battle, the Fierce Tiger Squad and the Imperial Knight Order ended up in a draw, with neither side able to overpower the other. However, Rocky had managed to slay an opponent in a one-on-one situation, which was a significant event.

That was the Imperial Knight Order!

After this clash, the members of the Fierce Tiger Squad became aware of the opponent’s strength. In terms of power, the Imperial Knight Order was undoubtedly a team that could compete with the Blue Crune. Being able to slay such a formidable opponent demonstrated a glimpse of Rocky’s capabilities.

As the topic surfaced, everyone turned their eyes toward Rocky, showing deep interest in him and the White Demon Armor.

For Rocky, this surge of enthusiasm was somewhat overwhelming.

As mentioned before, although he had lived, eaten, and trained with the Fierce Tiger Squad for two weeks, his relationship with the team was not very close—the only exceptions being his somewhat closer relationships with Abbas and Luca. Clara even harbored some resentment towards him.

Therefore, when everyone surrounded him and bombarded him with questions, Rocky felt somewhat at a loss.

Especially since their questions were all related to the White Demon Armor, Rocky was even more unsure of how to respond.

"Everyone, be quiet."

Fortunately, Captain Kyle spoke up at that moment, "The White Demon Armor is the highest secret of Thunderhawk City and also the highest secret of the Alliance. Why are you foolishly prying?"

After glancing at everyone with a stern look, Kyle used his typical loud voice and then turned to Rocky:

"Rocky, you performed very well in the previous battle."

While speaking, Kyle, who was sitting next to him, patted his shoulder: "You were great, better than we imagined. You are a true warrior."

"Absolutely!"

"Rocky, you are a true warrior!"

"Yes!"

As Kyle finished his address, the others around him seemingly chanted in unison. These words, ringing in Rocky’s ears, suddenly warmed his heart.

He had finally received recognition from the squad.

His previous lack of closeness with the squad members wasn’t due to anything other but the fact that they had not acknowledged him. In everyone’s eyes, Rocky was just Rocky; he was the City Lord of Thunderhawk City, but not a warrior, and he was fundamentally different from the members of the Fierce Tiger Squad.

However, through his performance in yesterday’s battle, Rocky had proven to everyone that he was, indeed, the City Lord of Thunderhawk City but also a true warrior.

Now, it seemed his proof had been effective because, after the battle, the attitudes of the Fierce Tiger Squad members toward him had noticeably changed—a shift that anyone could feel.
