Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 514: Chapter 478 Finished… Chapter 514: Chapter 478 Finished… A day quickly passed, and the four major Sky Cities, including Rocky’s own Thunderhawk City, entered the airspace controlled by the Mairente Family!

Their arrival was without any notice, which seemed unusual—normally, there would have been, because there were rules in the skies: abruptly entering the airspace of others equated to declaring war, and the owner of the airspace could attack directly.

Even if Rocky did not know this rule, the city lords of the three large Sky Cities and the military commander Claudy certainly did, yet none of them reminded Rocky.

Because there was no need.

For any member of the Rebel Army, the Alliance had no intentions of following the rules. Moreover, Claudy, who was in charge of commanding the troops, would probably hope that the opponents would attack first, giving the Alliance a reason to annihilate the family!

Unfortunately, the Mairente Family had long been expecting the Alliance to arrive and had made ample preparations. So when Rocky led the four Sky Cities into their airspace, instead of attacking, the other party even sent out a welcoming party.

However, this welcoming party was taken aback as soon as they saw the great army of the Sky Alliance.

It wasn’t that they were intimidated by the formation of the Alliance, but they were confused by Thunderhawk City.

“What’s happening? Why is there a small Sky City here?”

In the welcoming team, Abraham stood at the bow of the ship, looking towards the nearby four Sky Cities. The three large Sky Cities were fine, and so were the numerous surrounding warships, but what was with that one small Sky City?

In such an occasion, when did small Sky Cities have the qualification to appear?

“Strange…”

Abraham couldn’t help but frown upon discovering the small Sky City among the large force sent by the Alliance, especially when he noticed that this small Sky City was positioned in front of the three large ones.

And even more peculiar was that the more he looked at this city, the more familiar it seemed!

“Sir, the Alliance has arrived.”

Just as Abraham was about to recall the city he was seeing, an aide by his side reminded him, indicating that the Alliance’s ships had arrived.

Hearing this, Abraham quickly came to his senses and then told the people around him, “Be extra careful when you meet them, and let’s not give them any opportunity to trouble us.”

“Understood.”

“Got it.”

The subordinates responded and all stood behind Abraham. It wasn’t long before the Alliance’s ships approached, and the specifics of the encounter did not need to be detailed. Eventually, the welcoming party followed the Alliance warships towards the Sky Cities.

There seemed to be nothing amiss, but as Abraham and his people advanced, something felt increasingly off…

Because the direction the Alliance’s warships were leading them was clearly towards the smallest of the four Sky Cities!

This time, even the others noticed the issue. Among the four Sky Cities, three were large, and it would be normal to head to any of these, so why did they specifically head towards the only small Sky City?

This puzzlement appeared in the minds of all members of the Mairente Family, but no one dared to inquire further. After all, they were just following the Alliance Army’s warships; there was no direct contact, so there was no way to ask.

Shortly thereafter, they arrived at the Skyport of Thunderhawk City and began a slow descent…

“Sir, this, this place seems to be…”

When everyone followed the Alliance Army’s warship and landed at the Skyport, someone at Abraham’s side detected a problem!

Although these people had never been to Thunderhawk City, the city was originally a Sky City of the Mairente Family, before falling into Rocky’s hands, and some people had been there before; although Rocky had been focusing on development and construction in the last two years, he hadn’t changed Thunderhawk City’s Skyport at all, so it was quickly recognized.

“My Lord, this is Thunderhawk City!”

“What!”

Hearing the whispered words from his subordinate, an unprepared Abraham couldn’t control himself and exclaimed in surprise right then and there!

This news was indeed too shocking for him.

This is Thunderhawk City?

How could this be Thunderhawk City!

Who is the arch-enemy of the Mairente Family?

If this question had been asked a few years ago, there would have been many answers because all big families have numerous enemies, and the Mairente Family was no exception. Thus, every family elder might have given a different answer to this question.

But now, the answer to this question was quite unanimous, the Mairente Family’s arch-enemy was only one, and that was Rocky!

This answer, perhaps, would be unbelievable to outsiders, because Rocky was just a City Lord of a small Sky City! Could the vast Mairente family really regard him as their arch-enemy? Was Rocky too strong, or was the Mairente family too weak?

Undoubtedly, someone would think this way, but if someone dared to say this in front of the Mairente family members, the only answer they would get was a challenge to try and oppose Rocky themselves, and then speak those cool-headed words when they saw the results!

For the Mairente family, Rocky had now become a taboo, the entire family was forbidden from mentioning his name because he had brought too much disaster upon them. This man was simply a calamity; the family had never profited from dealings with him, as they always ended up at a loss!

So, for the entire family, the worst thing was having Rocky come to collect war reparations on behalf of the Alliance.

However, the family thought this was almost an impossible scenario, as Rocky was just a minor city lord and even though he was a member of the Alliance, the Alliance wouldn’t possibly let him handle such important matters, so no one had considered this possibility.

However, now it seemed they had underestimated Rocky’s standing in the Alliance, as well as the Alliance’s audacity!

“Lord Abraham, do you have any problems?”

Just when Abraham had cried out in surprise, the officer leading them turned back to glance at him and then asked with a cold sneer.

“No… nothing…”

After glancing at the officer, Abraham shook his head difficultly, and right after lifting his eyes, he froze on the spot.

Because by that time they had arrived next to the waiting carriage, and then Abraham saw Liliya beside the carriage!

“Liliya…”

Seeing Liliya, the last bit of hope in his heart disappeared, because even though he had never been to Thunderhawk City, he recognized Liliya!

When Rocky had been expelled from the family, Abraham had met him once, and although he hadn’t made a strong impression of Rocky at that time, his memory of Liliya was quite vivid; he had even thought about keeping her around.

So upon seeing Liliya, his heart skipped a beat, and two words immediately sprang to mind, “It’s over…”
