Lord of the Sky City

```

Regarding Rocky's idea, Liliya and others repeatedly shook their heads, which made him very distressed.

However, the reason why Liliya and the others did this was not because they were obstinate, but because demons had been around for a hundred years, and in that time, people had thoroughly researched them. This in-depth study was evident from the fact that demon corpses could be used as resources.

Under such thorough research, there was no evidence to suggest that demons possessed organizational abilities.

Demons were undoubtedly powerful, but they also had their weaknesses. For example, their intelligence was very low. They were essentially monsters driven entirely by instinct, which means that beneath their formidable bodies lay not-so-bright brains.

That is also why people were still able to live in the sky after losing the land. If demons were not solely driven by instinct and had become organized and strategic, then these monsters would have already attacked the sky, and the world would have been completely occupied by them.

Because of this clear understanding, Liliya and the others simply laughed off Rocky's idea.

"So why do you think the demons are starting to gather?"

Rocky was naturally dissatisfied with everyone's attitude. As a transmigrator, he didn't hold any preconceived notions. He felt that both the previous battles and the intelligence brought back by Felly were proving that the demons were launching organized attacks on Backhill Village, but why wouldn't anyone believe it?

Indeed, it's possible that the demons were just a group of mindless monsters for a hundred years, but even if they were monsters, couldn't they evolve?

Could it be that monsters couldn't gradually evolve intelligence?

After all, it has been a hundred years since the demons appeared! In such a long time, any species could undergo fundamental changes, even demons!

"Commander Rocky, let's not dwell on this issue,"

Seeing Rocky being persistent, Lin Feng spoke up to mediate, then said, "I think we can put the discussion about why the demons are gathering near the village aside for now. Let's discuss how to deal with these gathered demons first."

Although he did not agree with Rocky's idea, Lin Feng's words hit the nail on the head. For Backhill Village at present, the reason behind the demons' gathering was not important. What mattered was how they should handle it if the gathered demons began to attack.

Following Lin Feng's redirection, the focus of the conversation shifted to this issue.

Then Rocky turned to look at Felly:

"Felly, how far are those demons from the village?"

"About a dozen miles away."

"I see... Captain Lin Feng, do you think it's possible that the demons' target is not Backhill Village?"

After hearing Felly's answer, Rocky turned his gaze back to Lin Feng.

Unfortunately, Lin Feng just shook his head: "To the north of Break-Sky Mountain, there is only our village; no other places are inhabited, so the demons' target is definitely here. There should be no mistake about that."

"In that case... the primary question now is exactly how many demons there are." When Lin Feng finished speaking, Liliya opened her mouth: "If there are only twenty or thirty demons gathered together, then even if stronger armored bull demons join them, we can still hold the village with the advantage of the high walls and skyships, even withstand several waves of attack."

"But... If the number of gathered demons is too large, for instance, like last time, reaching fifty or sixty, or even a hundred, then it would be difficult for us to defend."

Liliya's words made everyone nod in agreement.

```

The most critical issue now is indeed the number. If there aren't many demons, it's manageable, but once their numbers grow, say, they appear in groups of fifty or sixty demons, or even more, then what should be done for defense becomes the key issue!

This question caused everyone in the tent to lower their heads, all sinking into deep thought, earnestly contemplating countermeasures. Your next chapter awaits on empire

After a good while, Lin Feng was the first to lift his head, but he did not speak. Instead, he turned his gaze to Rocky.

"Commander Rocky, what do you think we should do?"

Seeing that Lin Feng was asking for his opinion, Rocky thought for a moment and then said, "The best method... is probably to dispatch the skyships on the offensive, to find the demons gathered together and then bomb them. This way, we can not only disperse them, but also reduce their numbers."

"Good! I agree with Commander Rocky's idea!"

Just as Rocky finished speaking, Lin Feng immediately seconded the motion, leaving Rocky feeling a bit helpless.

Lin Feng agreed with the plan without even thinking about it, indicating that he had also come up with it long ago but inquired Rocky's opinion out of respect, as the skyships were not under his command. Otherwise, given Lin Feng's cautious nature, he definitely would not have reacted as such.

Of course, there was no need for Rocky to point this out, so he then instructed Felly, "Notify the other skyships immediately that from now on all skyships are to go on patrol. As soon as they encounter demons attempting to gather, they must report it right away, and then all the skyships will carry out bombing together."

"Yes!"

"Also, you came back in a skyship this time, right?"

As Felly saluted and prepared to carry out the orders, Rocky asked him another question.

"Yes..."

Felly nodded blankly. Of course, he had come back in a skyship.

"Great, I'll join you on patrol."

Seeing Felly nod, Rocky directly stated that he would join Felly on patrol!

"No!"

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than Liliya expressed her opposition.

Unfortunately for her, Rocky's mind was already made up, and her objection was evidently ineffective. Rocky remained undeterred from his initial idea, believing there must be a reason for the demons' concerted efforts to gather. Since others doubted his convictions, he resolved to see for himself.

That's just the kind of person Rocky was. He seemed easygoing, yet he possessed a stubbornness that far exceeded that of ordinary people. Once he made a decision, it was very difficult to sway, even by Liliya.

So, after giving a few instructions to Liliya and Monte, he boarded the skyship with Felly, and soon they slowly left Backhill Village.

"Felly, take the skyship straight to where you discovered the demons."

As the skyship gradually flew away from Backhill Village, Rocky ordered Felly to head to the site of the incident, the place where the demons had been spotted before. He wanted to see for himself what was going on, to find out what exactly had caused the demons to be gathered together!
