Chapter 151: Mobilizing the City

“Wu!!!”

The low hout Sky City

The Heavenly Sea Conch was a treasure that the Harpies had taken froh loas powerful and could travel far The wail of the conch spread through all of Sky City very quickly

It was a signalin the city

A big battle was obviously near Countless Harpy soldiers scra intently

The peaceful ato had quickly disappeared, replaced byintent

Groups of Harpy soldiers flew forth, worry and apprehension written on their faces It was obvious that they had no idea who they were going to be fighting with, but their training caused them to almost immediately arrive at their stations

However, the steel city hanging froht

Now that the horns of ere being sounded, Sky City had also begun to bare its fangs

The steel plates thatcountless cannons These were the Harpies’ Sun-Shattering Cannons They were powered by Origin Energy, and each volley unleashed theReal Cannons protruded from the city walls Anyone who saw this scene would probably tremble instinctively in fear and trepidation

Even so, this was only the beginning As the gears turned, metal war chariots heeled out to the ramparts of the walls These were the Fiendish Annihilation Chariots Each one could unleash hundreds of Annihilation Bolts at once, each carrying incredible penetrative power

At the saan to descend appear on the city walls, spaced out a hundred feet from each other

These were combat puppets Some were human and others were beast-like Each had a different form, but they stood with the Harpy soldiers on the walls, for the walls also began to transforlare These inscriptions then the walls while protecting the soldiers inside

There were two h walls within the outer walls with a similar setup, and these walls were even taller and were packed with even more firepower This ensured that, even if the outer as destroyed, the inner walls could continue to attack

The cannons, chariots, soldiers, puppets, and even the walls themselves served as components of the incredibly powerful defenses of Sky City

And behind these three walls were twelveshrines, trailed by a thousand eight hundred floating boats

The walls were lined with soldiers, while the Arcana Masters were all gathered around the shrines

The twelve floating shrines supplied the Arcana Masters with Origin Energy Each one of they that would constantly infuse the Arcana Masters with Origin Energy It was evenboats were used to hold these Arcana Masters and were designed to give the Arcana Masters the full freedom to unleash Arcana Techniques as they pleased Most of the Origin Formations inscribed on the boats were utilitarian in nature, used to increase the power of an Arcana Technique Once the battle started, the floating boats would carry the Arcana Masters around, for a nimble force of powerful attackers

These Arcana Masters made up Sky City’s central line of defense They were meant to provide firepower assistance, but because their own physical bodies were so weak, they needed to be a ways behind the front lines, relying on the protection of the walls to unleash their full ht

Within the interior of the city were ninety-nine Arcana Towers, each one holding up a Sun-Shooting Pearl These pearls would begin to glow upon coy that would envelop the entire city

The Flowing Gold Fort had relied on nine similar towers to control the important defensive mechanisms of the fort Sky City, however, had ninety-nine, and each one of the toas stronger than the ones at the Flowing Gold Fort

Each toas guarded by an Eighth-Ring Arcana Master to make sure that it operated smoothly Even if some of the toere destroyed by a powerful opponent, the overall operation of the toouldn’t be disrupted

Apart froht in the city was the Perpetual Daylight Palace

A massive cannon had appeared above the palace

The cannon was so large that anyone who saould instinctively feel a sense of despair rising in their hearts

The Sun-Shattering Cannons had openings roughly as wide as a washbasin That was alreadyseeantic cannon

The cannon opening looked like thethan the cannons mounted on the city walls

The body of the cannon was completely constructed from rareit with the power of Arcana Techniques

At the sin Fory Just the Origin Stones set on the forht

This was the fa Cannon of the Harpies

There was a saying aest possible attack was not the all-out attack of an Ultiendary Arcana Master, nor even an Astral at peak strength Only the De such a powerful attack

Each time it fired, it unleashed an attack even more powerful than a forbidden Arcana Technique

The sky would treround would quake

It was probably the most powerful existence on the entire continent

Of course, the cost of constructing a cannon like that was astronomical The Crafts it, burning a massive hole in the pockets of the Harpies In addition, it could only be used in Sky City because it consuy each time it fired, soit with enough energy It would take sothat even a large clan would go completely bankrupt Yes, Sark’s Nuclei provided the power, but the cost was still high enough that people would point in amazement Of course, its power output et that was aimed upon by the cannon could only either choose to run or to die There was no way any living creature would be able to withstand the attack
