Sect - Book 4, Chapter 46: Harpy History (2/2)

In the 946th year of the New Star Era, Sky City’s construction was completed, and the Harpies successfully established the Sky Country Withered Edge becaovernious system that worshi+pped a mother Goddess and accepted divine edicts froanization

The Harpies, Craftsmen, and Metalskins took nearly a thousand years and an ocean’s worth of resources in order to co city, which becast the whole Primordial Continent

This city was built with incredibly powerful defensive and offensive capabilities Its defensive Origin Energy formation alone could withstand the attacks of hundreds of Ulti it at the say contained within the Sark’s Nucleus gave Sky City a seey As a result, the city was also a location that even the most powerful experts considered impossible to conquer

The Harpies became overlords very quickly because of this Anywhere Sky City went, all enemies it encountered were easily defeated!

Yes, overlords At their height, they were even able to use their city to single-handedly suppress a Primordial Beast

However, this situation didn’t last for very long

The Harpies’ arrogance and the ht of Sky City quickly made it so that the Harpies offended everyone they could possibly have offended These included the Crafts city

The Harpies reneged on their original pro the two subordinate races out of Sky City and taking control of the city Then, they began to oppress all the other races without discrimination

Because of this, the four races forainst the Harpies

However, Sky City was too powerful The floating fort had an endless supply of energy and impenetrable defenses No matter what kind of attacks they launched at it, they were all rendered of no effect

Even with the four races allying together, they had no way of defeating the Harpies

For this, they were forced to think of any possible methods

In the end, the Craftsmen were the ones who proposed a possible solution

One of the greatest occurrences of sowing discord throughout the continent’s history took place

A powerful Astral sacrificed his own spiritual body to control a Harpy Arcana Master

The battle continued, and to raise the status of that Arcana Master, the huers, and Astrals all devoted lots of tiy to help him produce countless achievements, as well as to help hith

By relying on this method, the Arcana Master very quickly becaeneral

At this point, the four races’ plan began to bare its fangs

This genius general proposed a plan during a : Operation Deep Sea Anchor

Operation Deep Sea Anchor was based on soh Sky City was incomparably powerful, and Sark’s Nuclei provided the city with an endless supply of energy, there was still certain drawbacks and bottlenecks experienced by the people living in the city

Theclear: when defending against incredibly powerful attacks, Sky City’s consuy far outstripped how much it absorbed

This was inevitable

Killing was always easier than giving birth, and spendingup

The only reason Sky City was still able to hold on was because the Harpies were going all-out as well - when faced with the pressure from the four races conificant price

It was in this eneral proposed Operation Deep Sea Anchor

The plan was to convert Sark’s Nuclei’s somewhat ethereal connections with the outside world into athe nuclei to extract nearly ten ti Sky City truly invulnerable

The Harpies were incredibly moved by this plan, but they weren’t very skilled at reeneral o to Craftsman and Metalskin territory to convince the two races to help based on his “y anchor

The two races returned to Sky City, letting “bygones be bygones”, and began to work on creating this Origin Energy anchor

During this period of time, the Harpies watched thee the city,

However, reality demonstrated that the two races didn’t e the city

They diligently completed the work that the Harpies had co a better job than the Harpies had anticipated - the Origin Energy chain of the Sark’s Nucleus was imbued with spatial powers that penetrated deep into the sea of Origin Energy, y enty times what it was before

The Harpies were incredibly excited by this prospect

However, not long afterwards, they discovered a shocking situation

Sky City couldn’t move anyions of the Primordial Continent and could not fly to any other corner of the continent

They even had no way of cutting the anchor chain because of how intimately connected it ith Sark’s Nucleus Once the chain was cut, the nucleus would collapse on itself, and Sky City would co out of the sky

While Sky City became invincible, it also lost its ability to move as a result

In the end, the Harpies’ dominance shrunk froion towards the south

Just like that, the Harpies’ reign of a hundred years cruness
