Chapter 202: Chapter 209 Invitation


    “Time’s up…”


    Looking at Rocky, Orton said something unrelated, then turned back into the cabin, leaving Rocky dumbfounded…


    Rocky, of course, was puzzled by Orton’s peculiar behavior, but he was already used to it, so after scratching his head, he didn’t think much of it and continued to gaze at the sky.


    In the sky, Wilton was still constantly resisting the magical energy storm. After the first round of lightning attacks, the magical energy storm’s strikes were noticeably more fierce and frequent. Yet, faced with such a violent assault, Wilton, high above, remained calm and showed no signs of pressure.


    As a result, the fleet’s pressure was greatly reduced; because the magical energy storm’s attention was drawn to Wilton, the fleet immediately accelerated to its maximum speed, crossing the storm’s range as quickly as possible.


    Thus, relying solely on his efforts, Wilton attracted the storm’s attention, allowing the entire fleet to smoothly escape the Traceless Battlefield and successfully return to Sky City!


    ...


    Upon their successful return, Rocky and Karina followed the previous plan—Karina went directly to Lingyu City for correction, while Rocky headed to the Sky Alliance, and the two parted ways.


    Leaving aside how Karina went to Lingyu City, let’s talk about Rocky.


    Returning to his Thunderhawk City, Rocky entrusted all matters regarding the spoils of war and other things to Aileen and personally escorted Wilton to the City Lord’s Mansion, then began contacting the Sky Alliance.


    However, there were some minor issues with this task. sea??h thё n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.


    Rocky had heard of the Sky Alliance, of course, but only in passing. He knew nothing about what this alliance specifically was, so when he wanted to contact the Sky Alliance, he found he had no means to do so…


    Luckily, with Wilton’s help, Rocky finally gained some insight into the Sky Alliance.


    As one of the three major forces in the sky, the Sky Alliance was an enormous entity, comprising over a thousand Sky Cities, with ninety percent of them being medium or large. Yet, the most astonishing fact was that among its members, the Sky Alliance owned three God Cities!


    Across the entire sky, there were only ten God Cities, and the Sky Alliance possessed three! This alone demonstrated how powerful this alliance was!


    According to Wilton’s account, members of the Sky Alliance were divided into core and outer members, and the vast majority of members were outer ones. Only after making significant contributions to the alliance could one be promoted to a core member.


    Even as an outer member, one could enjoy basic benefits of the alliance, such as requesting support when cities suffered attacks or initiated wars, or receiving certain trade discounts with allied Chambers of Commerce. These were the basic perks for outer members.


    Once a core member of the alliance, the benefits were even greater. Besides receiving double the benefits of an outer member, a city could long-term stay in the airspace controlled by the alliance!


    The alliance’s airspace referred to those fully dominated by the Sky Alliance, where all Sky Cities were core members—also the location of the three God Cities—an area no outsiders were allowed to enter, a place with absolute safety!


    “City Lord Rocky, as long as you can connect me with a member of the Sky Alliance, even an outer member would suffice, the alliance will naturally send someone to escort me.”


    After briefly introducing the Sky Alliance, Wilton said that he didn’t need Rocky to escort him to the airspace ruled by the alliance—it was too far. He just needed Rocky to help contact other alliance members, and naturally, someone would come for him.


    This made Rocky’s task much easier. He immediately contacted Berg, asking him to check, through the Shadow Alliance, whether there were any Sky Alliance members in nearby Sky Cities.


    Berg quickly responded that to the east of Thunderhawk City there was a Sky City belonging to the Sky Alliance, with the voyage needing about three days, not too far.


    After receiving this news, Rocky immediately prepared Thunderhawk City for flight, heading straight to the given coordinates.


    “City Lord Rocky, were you and Lord Karina eliminating the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group this time?”


    During the three-day journey, Rocky inevitably interacted with Wilton. So, on this day, when Rocky went to check on his injuries, Wilton asked casually while chatting.


    “…Sir, how did you…?”


    Wilton’s question made Rocky frown. He hadn’t mentioned anything about the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group. How did Wilton know?


    “Hehe, City Lord Rocky, I didn’t mean to pry into your affairs, but as far as I know, the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group’s base is right in the Traceless Battlefield, plus I saw the spoils on the warship, so it wasn’t hard to deduce.”


    With a slight smile, Wilton explained.


    “Have you heard of the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group?”


    “Heard a bit.”


    Nodding slightly, Wilton said, “This Air Pirate Group once robbed alliance goods, and the alliance intended to eliminate them but was delayed for various reasons.”


    “So you and Lord Karina’s actions did everyone a great favor.”


    Wilton spoke approvingly to Rocky.


    He wasn’t wrong. The Sky Alliance did plan to take out the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group. But in front of the Sky Alliance, any Air Pirate Group, including Wild Horse City, was insignificant—easily dispatched with a flick of a finger.


    However, the Wild Horse Air Pirate Group was so insignificant to the Sky Alliance that the matter was inadvertently delayed, and, with the group’s keen sense of danger, they went silent for a long time, so much so that nobody in the Sky Alliance mentioned it anymore.


    But as one of the important figures in the Sky Alliance, Wilton remembered.


    Following this, Wilton posed a question to Rocky:


    “City Lord Rocky, do you and Lord Karina have any interest in joining the Sky Alliance?”


    “Eh?”


    Perhaps Wilton’s statement was too sudden, it caught Rocky unprepared, never having considered joining such a top-tier force as the Sky Alliance. He had no preparation for this.


    After some contemplation, Rocky asked in confusion:


    “Sir, do I qualify to join the alliance?”


    He recalled Berg mentioning how joining one of the three major forces wasn’t easy; it required meeting certain criteria, with at least a medium-sized Sky City scale, which Thunderhawk City didn’t have.


    “There’s always an exception.”


    To this doubt, Wilton laughed, “The alliance does have requirements for new members, but there are always exceptions. Even small Sky Cities with great potential or significant contributions to the alliance can be accepted.”


    “Lord Karina of Rose City, her reputation as the ‘Tyrant’ is well-known in the alliance, and she already qualifies for entry; as City Lord Rocky can work on equal terms with her and even saved my life, you surely qualify too.”


    “So, City Lord Rocky, what do you think?”
