Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 739 - 702 Siege!

Chapter 739: Chapter 702 Siege!

Rocky reached the Mother Worm in an instant, raising the Magic Fang Scythe and viciously chopping at one of the Mother Worm’s legs, but the result was as if he had struck stone, and the Magic Fang Scythe was repelled.

This scene greatly exceeded Rocky’s expectations, for since he had obtained the Magic Fang Scythe, he had never met an opponent it could not cut through. It was almost like slicing through tofu, and this was the first time it had been blocked, even deflected. However, in the blink of an eye, Rocky understood what had happened.

There were two reasons why the Magic Fang Scythe was exceedingly sharp: first, because the blade was made from a Knife Fox Demon’s scythe, making it incredibly sharp; and second, because the scythe was covered in Mana Runes, which when activated for charging, could enhance the sharpness even further. Now, however, there was a problem.

First, the reason why the Knife Fox Demon’s scythe was sharp was because it was a high-level demon’s weapon, but this Mother Worm seemed to be no less than a high-level demon in rank. In fact, in some respects, the Mother Worm’s level could very well be higher than that of the Knife Fox Demon. This meant it was likely a being above high-level demons, and so the scythe made by the Knife Fox Demon didn’t have enough sharpness to wound the Mother Worm on its own.

Second, Rocky had not activated the Rune when he struck, and it had to be said that he had been complacent in this regard. He hadn’t expected the Mother Worm to be so troublesome.

But in reality, the difficulties the Mother Worm presented were beyond imagination!

Just when the Magic Fang Scythe in Rocky’s hand was repelled, the Mother Worm let out a hiss and swung its leg with unimaginable speed, severely striking Rocky!

Keep in mind that the Mother Worm was a colossal creature spanning dozens of meters, so enormous that it could be said to be bigger than a Moving Fortress. Therefore, the eight legs that supported its huge body were like columns of poison, each over ten meters long. Yet now, as the Mother Worm viciously whipped its leg at Rocky, it demonstrated an agility beyond belief, hitting Rocky before he even had a chance to dodge.

In an instant, Rocky was like a kite with its string cut, whooshing backward, knocked all the way to the other end of the Dissolving Cave and out of sight.

At the same time, as he was being knocked away, Liliya, Dusa, and He Nan also coincidentally felt the impact and just happened to witness Rocky being hit, even brushing past the flying Rocky as they rushed forward…

Seeing Rocky flying past them, the three wanted to help but were helpless to do so, as at that moment the Mother Worm had already targeted them!

“Go for its body! Its abdomen is the weak point!”

Rushing towards the Mother Worm, He Nan roared and suddenly accelerated into flight, and once close to the Mother Worm’s head, he swung up the War Hammer in his hand and smashed it down hard!

A loud thud echoed as He Nan’s War Hammer struck the Mother Worm’s head, crowned with many eyes, with such force that even his own hand went numb. However, this powerful blow only caused the Mother Worm’s head to tilt slightly downward, beyond that it had no effect.

And his strike had no effect, but the Mother Worm was clearly enraged, rearing its head and snapping at him with an open mouth!

The enormous Mother Worm, even with only half its gaping mouth open, was large enough to swallow He Nan whole, let alone when it opens completely. Under these conditions, He Nan dared not pause for even a moment, immediately retreating explosively backwards.

In an instant, He Nan retreated seven or eight meters to barely dodge the Mother Worm’s bite, but he did not continue to run away. Instead, he charged forward again, swinging his War Hammer down fiercely once more.

Regrettably, just like before, though He Nan was exceptionally brave, and his War Hammer was embedded with the Mountain Opening Stone, he was too insignificant compared to the Mother Worm. The vast disparity in size between them created a chasm-like difference in strength, so no matter how He Nan attacked with his War Hammer, it was no more bothersome to the Mother Worm than a mere itch.

But he had no intention of stopping, for he knew he must do this.

As the strongest warrior of the Fireteng Tribe, He Nan’s formidable strength and extensive battle experience made him no less capable than Rocky, so he was very aware of the enormous gulf in power between himself and the Mother Worm. Nonetheless, he knew he needed to focus all his strength on the attack because only by doing so could he create an opportunity for Liliya and Dusa!

In fact, while He Nan was grappling with the Mother Worm at the risk of being swallowed in one bite, Dusa had already flown to a distant spot. She was neither fleeing nor avoiding combat, but as an Archer, she was finding the best position to strike from.

Once she had distanced herself from the Mother Worm, Dusa immediately began shooting arrows, pulling her bowstring continuously, firing relentlessly at the giant belly of the Mother Worm. By then, her Mana Bow was gleaming as she had fully activated all the runes on the arrows, with each arrow she shot having enough power to instantly kill a Normal Demon with the enhancement of the runes.

Simultaneously, Liliya had also drawn close to the Mother Worm, aiming specifically at its belly.

He Nan proved his mettle as a battle-hardened warrior; his previous assertion was spot on—the weak point of the Mother Worm was indeed its massive belly. Compared to its legs and body, which were covered with a hard shell, its cocoon-like belly appeared extremely fragile. The enormous belly lacked a shell and was covered in clearly visible veins, making it obviously vulnerable; if not for a twist of fate, it was likely that all those cocoons in the Dissolving Cave were produced from this vast belly.

So, upon getting close to the belly, Liliya wasted no time in lifting her left hand to shoot a series of Mana Points. Then, the Armor on her shoulder opened up, revealing the Magic Energy Beam Emitter hidden within the shoulder guards. Finally, a small cannon barrel extended from her back, but it fired a Rune Mana Cannon shot of extremely high potency. In the blink of an eye, Liliya had activated all the weapons of the Red Flame Goddess, unleashing all her firepower on the Armor.

However, even then, the damage she inflicted on the Mother Worm was limited. Although she was attacking the Mother Worm’s most vulnerable area, its belly, the creature was thick-skinned and tough. Liliya’s attacks, despite turning the surface of the belly into a bloody mess in an instant, only wounded the outer layer of skin; the vital organs underneath remained relatively unscathed.

Nevertheless, the Mother Worm still felt the pain and attempted to crush Liliya beneath its enormous body by sitting down, planning to squash her alive!
