LORD OF THE SKY CITY

Chapter 533: Chapter 497 A Faint Smile Chapter 533: Chapter 497 A Faint Smile Furrowed brows and burning anxiety, Bodin and the others were desperate.

In fact, they recognized that Rocky’s performance wasn’t bad. He wasn’t underestimating his opponent, nor was he careless or making any mistakes. Such basic errors were simply impossible for a warrior who had been tempered on the battlefield. The real problem lay with the Holy Angel Armor!

The Holy Angel Armor, it was simply too strong…

This armor, undoubtedly the strongest of today, made it clear that although Bernardo’s control over his armor, grasp of the battlefield, and combat experience couldn’t match Rocky’s, he was still able to dominate the fight and press Rocky with impunity. How was this possible?

Naturally, it was due to the Holy Angel Armor!

This suit was overwhelming the White Demon in every aspect, especially in terms of speed, which was most crucial.

This was exactly why Bodin and the others couldn’t help but worry for Rocky. They weren’t concerned about whether the Mairente Family would compensate the Alliance, as that was inevitable. They were genuinely worried for Rocky; losing this duel would be a massive blow to him.

How had things turned out this way…

Watching the platform, Bodin and the others couldn’t help but think, this time Rocky had come to the Mairente family intending to reclaim everything he had lost. Who would have thought it would turn out like this?

“Don’t worry…”

Staring intently at the platform, Bodin, as the eldest of the three, remained relatively calm. As the other two visibly showed their anxiety, he quietly hinted that maybe Rocky still had a chance to turn the tables?

And it turned out Bodin was right. Not long after, the opportunity for Rocky to turn the tables indeed appeared!

Under the firepower suppression of the Holy Angel, Rocky had to deploy the White Demon’s Defensive Net. There was no choice; the beams from the eight Magic Conduction Machines were too fierce and dense. What was even more terrifying was that the Holy Angel Armor had been fitted with a highly advanced targeting system, making the accuracy of the beams extraordinarily high, forcing Rocky to deploy the Defensive Net after several dodges.

With the Defensive Net deployed, he felt the pressure reducing instantly. Clearly, the defense of the White Demon’s Net was impressive. It wouldn’t do to say it could withstand attacks from the eight Magic Conduction Machines altogether, but it could handle one or two beams striking it, giving Rocky a chance to counterattack!

Just when the Defensive Net opened, Rocky, who had been dodging, suddenly accelerated, charging towards Bernardo under the relentless beam shooting!

A chance!

Seeing Rocky’s sprint, the tense Bodin and others felt a surge of joy. They knew well that if Rocky could close in on Bernardo and manage to draw the Magic Fang Scythe, he would win!

Contrastingly, as Rocky began his charge, the Mairente family was once again on edge. Given the reputation of the White Demon Armor, Rocky’s every move was closely watched with anxious hearts, worried that something unexpected might happen.

However, this time, no accidents occurred!

When Rocky began his sprint, it took just a blink of an eye for him to get in front of Bernardo, then he tightly gripped the Magic Fang Scythe behind him and chopped down!

From the sprint to the strike, this sequence of actions was executed in one fluid motion, giving Bernardo no chance to react or any opening to exploit.

However, after this, everyone was taken aback.

Just as the blade was falling, four of the eight continually attacking Magic Conduction Machines suddenly used Mana to connect to each other, creating a square Magic Energy Shield in an instant, which floated above Bernardo’s head!

As the blade fell, the incredibly sharp edge of the Magic Fang Scythe struck heavily upon the Magic Energy Shield. Although the tip of the scythe pierced through most of the shield, it ultimately stopped, blocked from descending further!

“How is this possible!”

Bodin and the others, who had initially been excited, immediately panicked, never having anticipated that the Magic Fang Scythe could be blocked… After all, it was the Magic Fang Scythe!

While not knowing the exact material of the Magic Fang Scythe, how could Bodin and his team, with their vast experience, even think it possible? They had guessed long ago that such a sharp weapon must be forged from the finest materials in the world, how could it be blocked?

In stark contrast to them were the members of the Mairente Family, who truly breathed a sigh of relief, a long sigh of relief this time. The Holy Angel Armor had just proven to surpass the White Demon in speed, and now it had blocked the attack of the Magic Fang Scythe, so what else was there to worry about?

Indeed, from the performance on the arena, they really didn’t need to worry anymore, because just after blocking the Magic Fang Scythe, the remaining four Magic Conduction Machines immediately targeted Rocky, firing all at once!

At such a close distance, the four Magic Energy Beams shot out almost instantly and hit the White Demon’s Defensive Net. Although they did not shatter the net, the immense power still knocked Rocky flying.

In full view of the public, the knocked-back Rocky was like a ball being flung away, slamming onto the arena with a loud crash.

This fall was not light for Rocky; the impact from the explosion of the four Magic Energy Beams was too great, making it impossible for him to adjust in time as he was flung back.

But it wasn’t over yet!

Just as Rocky crashed heavily onto the arena floor, Bernardo suddenly appeared above him, with a Mana Sword in hand and its tip thrusting downward fiercely at him!

Facing this strike, Rocky didn’t even have time to roll over. Lying on the ground, he activated the Armor to speed up, darting forward several meters and barely dodging the attack, and just as he managed to stand up, Bernardo was upon him again.

So fast!

This time, even Rocky had to admit, the speed of the Holy Angel Armor was too fast.

In such a situation, he quickly became the prey, being chased around the arena.

This scene energized everyone in the audience, including all the members of the family. Watching Bernardo chase Rocky around the arena, not just the young people but even the white-haired elders stood up excitedly, beginning to wave their arms and cheer for Bernardo.

Even Lexington, usually so composed, now had a smile on his face.

But among the many people cheering for Bernardo, a few were notably calm. These individuals were positioned at the corner of the square, managing only just to see the battle on the arena, but one mustn’t underestimate these few—because they were Athena and the protective Void Magic Squad!

Located at the corner of the square, Athena was watching everything, surrounded by several Void Magic Warriors. But what she watched was not the arena; instead, her eyes were on the cheering crowd around the arena. Seeing the emotions of the people swell to uncontrollable levels, a faint smile appeared on her calm face…
