Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 299 Encirclement (Part 1)



In Schneider’s eyes, Rocky had transformed into a white demon, invoking the deepest fears inside him.

Right after, before he could calm his inner fear, Rocky had already charged at him!

On the battlefront where every second counts, no one had time to think, and the enemy wouldn’t give you that time either. The situation was just like this, Rocky would not give Schneider time to think, let alone time to fear!

In the blink of an eye, Rocky had sprinted to right in front of Schneider and delivered a slash that felt like it could split him in two.

Facing this attack, Schneider panicked and dodged hurriedly, then rapidly retreated to create distance while firing a flurry of Magic Bullets to block Rocky’s pursuit.

However, an attack of this level could hardly stop Rocky. After a quick change of movement, Rocky continued the chase and raised his right hand during the pursuit, firing a trio of Magic Bullets in succession.

A barrage of Magic Bullets followed. Schneider used his shield to block it momentarily, then suddenly leaped into the air before Rocky could close in, adjusted his posture at a higher position, and took control of the high ground, then began a long-range exchange of fire!

Though fear arose, Schneider was, after all, a seasoned warrior. He quickly adjusted his mindset, focused all his attention on the combat, and suppressed his fear through this method.

With his state adjusted, his battlefield experience began to show itself.

Soaring into the sky, he preemptively took control of the high ground, then utilized the advantage of striking from above to continuously and precisely attack Rocky with dual Magic Energy Beams from his shoulders.

The Armor Schneider wore was the Fifth Generation Eagle Eye Special Armor, which had average performance in all aspects. Its most significant feature was the high-precision aiming system, the Eagle Eye Aiming System.

The Eagle Eye Aiming System is one of the most advanced aiming systems available today, and thanks to this advanced system, the weapons equipped on the Aurora Armor, especially long-range weapons which are essentially Magic Energy Beams, are incredibly fast and precise. Combined with the advanced aiming system, to say it could hit the target with every shot might be an exaggeration, but it was almost there.

Dodging an attack with a quick maneuver, Rocky immediately sped up his ascent, trying to close in on Schneider to reverse the disadvantage of being hit passively. However, as he had just risen a few meters, a barrage of incredibly precise attacks arrived, forcing him to stop his sprint and start dodging left and right. But with the aid of the Eagle Eye Aiming System, Schneider’s attacks were so accurate that Rocky had to deploy his Defensive Net after several dodges.

With the Defensive Net deployed, the pressure was significantly reduced, and then Rocky quickly resumed his sprint, approaching Schneider rapidly despite the attacks.

At this moment, Schneider wasn’t just standing still; he also activated reverse thrusters. While continuing his attacks, he kept retreating, not giving Rocky any chance to get close.

Although resentful that his teammates had been slaughtered by Rocky, Schneider had to admit that their deaths had provided him with significant help.

As Rocky slaughtered the rest of the team, Schneider watched everything, clearly understanding Rocky’s strengths. Rocky’s strengths lay in his speed, agility, and his Mana Sword, which when combined, made him exceptionally skilled at close combat. Thus, Schneider decisively chose long-range combat, resolutely keeping him at bay.

Because he knew that if Rocky got close to him, he would not be able to win the fight!

Although Schneider was wearing the Fifth Generation Special Armor, this Special Armor was not considered top-tier. In fact, the magic energy of the Eagle Eye Armor was only 9000. Although this was not low, it still did not qualify as top-tier armor, making it impossible for him to trade blows with Rocky the way Xia Nai could have from a distance in the past.

However, even though the strength of his armor was not on par with Xia Nai’s past capabilities, Schneider’s combat experience far surpassed that of Xia Nai and Rocky combined. He quickly assessed his own strengths and weaknesses against the enemy and began to use his strengths to attack the enemy’s weaknesses!

It must be said, this tactic was very effective. Although the Eagle Eye Armor was slightly inferior to the White Demon Armor, it was still a Fifth Generation Special Armor. Fully accelerating, Rocky indeed could not immediately catch up to him. Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire

Moreover, this was not a ring with boundaries, which would limit how far one could run even at full speed. The battlefield was boundless. If Schneider focused on keeping his distance from Rocky, there was plenty of space to maneuver.

While not simply running away, Schneider was continuously retreating while still facing Rocky head-on, constantly attacking Rocky with precise strikes using his long-range weapons. Although his attacks might not have been able to break through the White Demon’s Defensive Net in one go, affecting his pursuit speed was not a problem at all.

So, even though Rocky was chasing with all his might, as soon as he would nearly close the distance, he would be met with a barrage of intense attacks from Schneider. This forced him to slow down, and Schneider would use each opportunity to increase their distance, making it impossible for Rocky to catch up in a short time.

But at this moment, while Schneider was effectively keeping Rocky at bay, he failed to notice that from a far distance, Dusa had already aimed her bow at him, and then she shot an arrow!

For Schneider, the appearance of Dusa’s arrow was completely unexpected and struck him in an instant!

With a bang, the Magic Energy Arrow exploded upon hitting the Eagle Eye Armor but unfortunately did not cause significant damage. Being a Special Armor, the Eagle Eye Armor’s defensive power was quite strong, even without deploying the Defensive Net.

However, even though the strike did not cause significant damage, it affected his speed and, more importantly, his ability to attack, causing him to cease his attacks for a few moments following the hit.

Although the interruption lasted only a brief moment, it was enough!

How could Rocky, who had been relentlessly pursuing him, miss this great opportunity? He immediately seized it to close the gap between them!

In just the blink of an eye, Rocky, who had been at least fifty or sixty meters away from Schneider, had closed the distance to within ten meters!

Bad news!

Realizing that Rocky had taken advantage of the lapse to close in, Schneider immediately cursed under his breath. Without time to look for the attacking Dusa, he turned his Armor’s thrusters on full and fled.

But just as he turned to retreat, he realized a Void Magic Warrior appeared right in front of him and before he could see who it was, the figure charged at him!
