Chapter 206 Big Event!
Sky Era, Year 117, October, a shocking incident occurred that stunned the world, Tulip City, one of the last three cities on land, fell!
Today, a hundred years after demons occupied the land, only three places can still be called cities, Gesya City, Tulip City, and Mount Wanshan City. These cities stood unyielding for a century, becoming humanity’s last bastions on land, and were collectively revered as The Three Holy Cities.
But in October of Sky Era Year 117, Tulip City, one of The Three Holy Cities, fell.
To the people, it was simply unimaginable, because after the demons had occupied the land for a hundred years, the survival of these three cities was not due to luck but because of their indestructible strength.
Gesya City, with a population of several hundreds of thousands, located at the heart of the Karina Great Swamp, is surrounded by vast swamps on all sides making it impossible for demons to cross, and even if high-level demons fly over the swamp, nearly ten thousand warships and thousands of Void Magic Warriors are there to slay them.
Mount Wanshan City, with a population of over a hundred thousand, situated atop the world’s highest peak, Mount Wanshan, with the entire city built among the clouds, making it unassailable to demons.
Tulip City, with the largest population among the three cities, nearing a million residents, was located in Cliff Canyon, relying on mountain cliffs for protection and facing a hundred-mile deep valley as a barrier, which prevented demons from breaching the city for a century.
The three cities were not only powerful but also occupied uniquely advantageous locations, which allowed them to stand for a hundred years.
Yet now, Tulip City had been breached!
The fall of Tulip City was not just a piece of terrible news but a blow to the entire world! As long as these three cities stood, it meant that the land had not entirely fallen, that people still had strongholds on land, and those in the sky could coordinate with these cities at any time to launch a counterattack war against the land.
Therefore, these three cities on land were not only symbolic but also of strategic importance, irreplaceable to everyone.
Bearing such significance, for many years, everyone in both the sky and on land had painstakingly maintained these cities, and to keep them secure, The Three Great Alliances from the skies even launched the Second Counterattack War! This demonstrates how crucial these cities were.
But now, Tulip City had fallen, an event that not only significantly impacted the whole world but also subsequently sparked off the Third Counterattack War!
Of course, these are all matters for later, as aside from Rocky and others, no one in the skies knew yet that Tulip City had fallen. Even Rocky and his group harbored doubts about the news.
Certainly, Rocky knew what Tulip City was, but like everyone else, he was skeptical about the news of its fall. Because of this, he immediately had the unconscious Void Magic Warrior carried to his cabin and then once more gathered everyone, including Karina and Orton together.
It must be said that the operation to eliminate the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group was full of unexpected twists. The annihilation of the Air Pirate Group itself wasn’t surprising, but ever since they were wiped out, a series of unforeseen events unfolded one after another.
First was witnessing the rare sight of a Magic Dragon destroying a city, followed by the sudden appearance of a severely wounded Void Magic Warrior who then told everyone that Tulip City, which stood unvanquished on the land for a hundred years, had actually fallen?
All of these entirely unexpected events left Rocky and the others somewhat at a loss.
“Who is this guy, exactly?”
Everyone Rocky had summoned gathered in his cabin, looking at the stranger lying on the bed.
“Who he is doesn’t matter. What’s important is the message he brings. Tulip City has been taken? Do you believe it?”
“You’re joking, right? How could Tulip City possibly fall?”
“Exactly, this guy must be confused because of his severe injuries…”
Standing around the sickbed, everyone chimed in one after another, barely believing what the man had said.
“He said, it might be true.”
However, at this moment, Orton’s voice attracted everyone’s attention, prompting them to turn their gazes toward him.
“Teacher…”
Looking at Orton, Rocky found him holding a piece of Void Magic Armor in his hands, seemingly engrossed in studying it closely.
The Void Magic Armor he held was indeed the armor worn by the stranger. After the man had fainted and was carried to the cabin, Rocky ordered his men to remove the armor to treat his injuries.
“Do you know what kind of armor this is?”
Glancing at the crowd looking at him, Orton then pointed to the armor in his hand and asked.
“It should be a fifth generation armor, right?”
After a glance at the complete set of armor laid out on the table, Rocky spoke. Although he did not recognize the specific model of the armor, he could tell that it was definitely a fifth generation armor!
“You’re only half right,” Orton shook his head and corrected him, “This is indeed fifth generation armor, but it’s not just any fifth generation armor. It is a fifth generation Special Armor, and it has been custom-made.”
“What?”
“That’s impossible!”
Hearing his words, everyone in the room was stunned, then hurriedly approached Orton, fixating on the armor in his hands.
The fifth generation armor was the most advanced armor of the time, and the Special Armor within it was even more top-notch. It could be said to be the strongest class among all armors. However, this particular set of armor seemed even more formidable because it was custom-made!
Custom-made armor was a technology unique to the fifth generation armor, meaning it was crafted to fit the user’s bodily functions and personal needs. This type of armor could only be used by one specific person and was extremely expensive to produce.
But since it was tailor-made according to the user’s specifications and requirements, its combat power was incredibly powerful, often far surpassing Special Armor. It was the pinnacle among the top!
Rocky and Karina had only heard of this kind of custom-made armor and had never seen it. That was not odd because the level of custom-made armor was higher than that of Special Armor, and only fifth-generation armors could be customized. They simply couldn’t afford it.
So, when everyone learned that this seemingly unremarkable set of armor was in actuality a custom-made armor, they couldn’t help but come over to watch in awe.
“Master Orton, you really can’t be kept in the dark about anything…”
Just as Rocky and the others were captivated by this top-tier armor, the Void Magic Warrior, who had been unconscious on the bed, suddenly spoke!
The voice from behind startled everyone, prompting them to quickly turn around, only to discover that the Void Magic Warrior lying in bed had already sat up.
Facing the now-awake Void Magic Warrior, Orton set aside the armor in his hands and said cheerfully, “The technology of custom-made armor was something I was involved in. Naturally, you can’t hide it from me. And if I’m not mistaken, this set of custom-made armor is called Holy Knight Armor, isn’t it?”

“Holy Knight… Armor…?”
Upon hearing Orton’s words, Rocky and Karina felt a moment of shock because the name sounded familiar. As the thought struck them, a name emerged simultaneously in everyone’s minds: Holy Knight Wilton?
The instant they thought of the name, all eyes turned to the Void Magic Warrior on the bed, and their faces showed a look of surprise. Could this person before them be the renowned Holy Knight?!
