Chapter 392: 410 Stania Floating City_1
After experiencing two continuous setbacks in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, anyone would not let the matter go easily, let alone the Western Empire, which had a prominent reputation throughout the continent.

However, Otto still somewhat underestimated the determination of the Western Empire, and the reason for Saru’s eagerness to find him was quite simple.

Things seemed to have gone beyond expectations…

At the end of the Skeleton Tower in the center of Purgatory City, Otto was looking at the Floating City in the distance, his mouth twitching incessantly.

If nothing unexpected happened, it should be one of the three Floating Cities, the Floating City Stania of the Western Empire.

Even among the three Floating Cities, Stania was the largest and strongest one, and throughout history, this thing had not moved its position within the Western Empire for hundreds of years.

The situations of the other two Floating Cities were roughly the same, which could be considered as the nuclear weapons of this world’s version. Although their power was immense, they were mostly used to deter enemies.

It was extremely rare for them to be used directly like this. Not to mention the results they could achieve, the energy consumption required to drive such a large Floating City to the Dragon Bone Wasteland alone was a terrifying expense.

If they used the Stania Floating City and didn’t achieve any substantial results, it would be a huge blow to the Western Empire’s prestige and economy.

Otto didn’t think the events in the Dragon Bone Wasteland alone could drive the Western Empire to make a desperate move, so he estimated that they had also encountered some trouble elsewhere.

Thinking of this, Otto took flight again, heading towards the Yellow Sand City where Saru and his group were stationed, with Sofia accompanying him.

“Oh great Lord of the Silver Dragon!”

In the castle of Yellow Sand City, Saru and Gaz knelt respectfully before Otto, who had taken the form of a Silver Dragon-man.

Otto casually took the main seat, and Sofia habitually sat on his lap.

Both Saru and Gaz chose to ignore this, bowing their heads and daring not to look at anything they shouldn’t.

Not wasting too much time on unimportant matters, Otto asked directly, “Recently, besides the Dragon Bone Wasteland, have you received any noteworthy intelligence from other places?”

Now, the intelligence personnel of the Land of the Soaring Dragon had already infiltrated many corners of the continent, and the main force among them was still the original group that had been marked with the Blood Covenant and sent out.

All matters related to intelligence were always handled by Lizardman Bark.

Soon, under Saru’s urging, Bark quickly knelt before Otto.

Then, this increasingly high-ranking Lizardman thought for a moment before saying, “Apart from the areas around the Dragon Bone Wasteland, the situation on the continent is actually quite stable lately.

Many noble leaders from various countries and forces had followed the Dawn Legion and died in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, so most of those forces were busy dealing with the aftermath and clamoring to take revenge in the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

However, compared to them, the Eastern Empire has been much quieter recently and seems to have no intention of continuing to meddle in the affairs of the Dragon Bone Wasteland.”

“Really?”

Otto sneered, “The Western Empire’s Stania has flown to the Dragon Bone Wasteland. If they haven’t reached some kind of agreement with the Eastern Empire, aren’t they afraid that the Eastern Empire’s Floating City would directly fly over and take their territory?”

“This… ”

Bark stuttered for a while but couldn’t come up with anything to say. Finally, he cowered on the ground in fear.

“Enough!”

Otto waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t care.

Then, he said to Saru, “Have Caran contact the Eastern Empire and see what they’re up to. Are they really letting go of this good opportunity so easily?”

“As you wish, my lord!”

Saru quickly led Bark out.

After Saru left, Gaz stepped forward slightly and said to Otto, “Honorable Lord of the Silver Dragon, Queen of Vide, Angelina, has sent a message. A coalition army, equal in scale to the Dawn Legion, has once again passed through Vide’s territory and is heading towards the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

However, unlike the Dawn Legion, the coalition army does not include the forces of Dawn Forest and completely isolates Vide.

Moreover, because of the presence of the Stania Floating City, they dare not act rashly.”

Otto asked, “Have they started to suspect Vide?”

“They should have!”

Gaz nodded and continued, “According to Angelina, during the destruction of Catalan, the body of Mentor, the envoy of the Western Empire, was not found.

He should have returned to the Western Empire by now. He knows Angelina’s true allegiance but does not understand why she is attacking Vide so openly.”

“Perhaps they think that it’s not too late to deal with Vide after resolving the troubles in the Dragon Bone Wasteland!”

Otto sneered, “A small Vide cannot face the most powerful Floating City.

I guess there’s no need to worry about resupplying the troops this time. That huge Floating City will have enough food just by clearing out a warehouse!

Once they’ve taken care of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, they’ll probably take care of Vide on their way back.”

As the largest of the three Floating Cities, Stania’s size alone was comparable to that of a military fortress.

It wasn’t just the fact that it was armed to the teeth, but even if the Floating City were to be used as a giant stone and dropped from the sky, it would be enough to reduce Purgatory City to ruins.

Just as Otto was about to say something else to Gaz, the current highest leader of Purgatory City, the Skeletal Dragon Frostfire, contacted Otto through the Communication Scale.

As soon as the communication was connected, Frostfire anxiously said, “Your great Majesty, the Floating City is rapidly approaching Purgatory City. They seem to be preparing to attack!”

“What?”

Otto was filled with surprise.

Just now, it was said that the Western Empire’s coalition forces were passing through Vide’s territory, and now the Stania Floating City was preparing to attack Purgatory City?

He didn’t know if they were too confident or if they underestimated him…

Otto laughed coldly and then said to Gaz, “Have your men get ready for action. This time, there might be a chance for you to take the stage!”

The Western Empire might be arrogant, but Otto wouldn’t be. The name of the three Floating Cities was well known, and by any means, they wouldn’t be easy opponents to deal with.

The reason why the Demon Army led by the Endless Demon Sovereign had been defeated here was largely due to the three Floating Cities.

Perhaps this battle would be quick and easy, but it also represented an opportunity!
