Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 386 - 357 Where to Go
Chapter 386: Chapter 357 Where to Go
Time rewound to a few days earlier.
When Rocky learned that Cyril had done something as radical as leaving the Mairente Family, he was bewildered, truly bewildered, and it only made him even more confused about what Cyril was up to.
For a fleeting moment, he even wondered if Cyril had left the family because of him, but this thought was fleeting and quickly dismissed. The reason was simple: the relationship between Rocky and Cyril obviously wasn’t that good yet.
At the same time, the only idea he had for saving Backhill Village also became ineffective. Since Cyril had left the family, using her as a hostage to threaten the family was useless now. Just as Cyril herself had said, the Mairente Family might even be hoping that he would kill her now.
Suddenly, Rocky found himself completely trapped in a helpless plight, and he didn’t know what to do.
Backhill Village was surrounded; there was no way back, but if he didn’t return to Backhill Village, where could he and Thunderhawk City go? He had already made plans to focus on the development around Backhill Village for the coming years, but all those plans had now been dashed.
Where would he and Thunderhawk City go next?
Almost at the same moment that Cyril revealed her departure from the family, Rocky had thought of this question, but he had no answer…
Stunned into immobility for a long time, Rocky finally came to his senses, but at that moment, his entire demeanor had changed. In that instant, he seemed to have become ten times more despondent and aged, his spirit utterly deflated.
“You may leave…”
Sitting limply in the chair, Rocky gave Cyril a glance and then waved his hand, releasing her.
Upon this, Cyril did not say much and simply stood up, walking slowly toward the door.
“What are your plans for the future?”
Just as she was about to reach the door, Rocky’s voice suddenly filled the room.
At the sound of his voice, Cyril, who had reached the doorway, stopped in her tracks. After a moment of thought, she shook her head: “I don’t know…”
Rocky didn’t know where he was headed, and neither did Cyril. In fact, she was even more bewildered than Rocky.
Cyril was undoubtedly competent, but it was important to remember that all her abilities were built on the foundation of having the support of the Mairente Family. Thus, although Cyril was also a City Lord, she was not like Rocky, who had to fend for himself in the skies.
But now, Cyril had left the family, and without the family’s backing, how she would survive in this sky was the greatest challenge facing her. Not to mention, whether she could sustain a medium-sized Sky City on her own was a question mark.
“Leave me your contact information, if you run into any trouble, I’ll help you,” Rocky sighed and spoke as Cyril shook her head.
Upon hearing this, Cyril showed a bitter smile. Before leaving the family, such a statement would have been a joke to her. Who was she? Did she need Rocky’s help? Don’t be ridiculous.
But now, she knew it wasn’t a joke, for in terms of the ability to survive alone in the skies, she was not as capable as Rocky.
So she didn’t put on airs and swiftly exchanged communicator codes with Rocky, allowing them to keep in contact with each other. Following that, Cyril left Thunderhawk City and returned to her own Sky City. She activated flight mode that very day and slowly flew away from the Skybreaker Peak region.
After her departure, Rocky fell into desolation…
“What’s happened to the master?”
On the third day of Backhill Village being besieged, when Felly reported the latest news of the village to Rocky, he didn’t say a word. He just waved his hand casually and made him leave his study, leaving Felly bewildered.
Because this clearly didn’t match Rocky’s character at all!
If it had been any other day, Rocky would have issued a series of commands upon receiving similar news, making a series of responses in light of the latest situation. But what was wrong today?
Could it be that the news he reported was not important?
Felly couldn’t help but think this, but he realized that was not the case. The news he reported today was actually quite significant.
Three days after the Mairente Family’s forces approached Backhill Village, the Sky Alliance had already made its response upon receiving messages from both Glan and Te Nong. Being the closest and having just visited recently, Sirius City was now urgently mobilized, and along with another mid-sized Sky City, was speeding towards Backhill Village. If nothing unexpected happened, they should arrive within one to two days.
The message Felly reported to Rocky was exactly this, and regarding this matter, Rocky shouldn’t have been indifferent!
Standing at the door of the study, Felly couldn’t understand what was wrong with Rocky. Just then, Liliya arrived and he couldn’t help but ask, “Captain, what’s wrong with the Lord? He seems to be in a bad state…”
Although Liliya was no longer the captain of the Guard Corps and Felly was no longer part of it, Felly still habitually called her captain when he saw her in private, finding it more intimate.
And as the person who understood Rocky best, Liliya had naturally noticed the abnormality that Felly saw.
“It’s nothing, the Lord has just been too tired these past few days, don’t worry.”
Sighing, Liliya said this to Felly and then asked him to leave.
Once Felly had left, Liliya then entered the study.
As soon as she entered the study, she saw Rocky sitting listlessly on the large sofa, his eyes blankly staring at the ceiling.
“Are you feeling unwell?”
Sighing inwardly, Liliya walked over to him.
“Come, sit down.”
Upon hearing her voice, Rocky seemed to come back to his senses, then asked Liliya to sit beside him. Once she was seated, he lay down on the sofa using Liliya’s thigh as a pillow.
“What’s wrong with you…”
Looking at Rocky lying on her lap, Liliya gently arranged his hair with her hand as she asked.
“Tired.”
Closing his eyes, Rocky replied weakly.
“I heard the Alliance has dispatched reinforcements and they should reach the village in a few days, then…”
“It’s no use.”
Lying on Liliya’s lap with his eyes closed, Rocky cut her off before she could finish speaking.
“No use? What do you mean?”
“Ah…”
Rocky let out a long sigh, finally opened his eyes, and then looked at Liliya with a lifeless gaze, “Just wait and see, in a couple of days you’ll understand. It’s no use even if the Alliance sends reinforcements…”
