The wind high above was like a fierce guillotine, constantly tearing at Ning Feng's skin, trying to scrape away his flesh and blood.
This is not the peaceful high altitude that ordinary people experience.
The Land of Star Chaser has long since transformed the surrounding environment without us even realizing it. The air high in the sky is filled with active magic, yet due to its own characteristics, it also carries a strong sense of death.
He remained unmoved by the decision to remain in a state of stagnation.
Within a few breaths of appearing, Ning Feng adjusted his breathing and physical strength.
He is adapting.
In order to survive for a long time in an oxygen-depleted environment, he kept his mouth closed and breathed slowly through his nose to minimize energy expenditure.
His clothes had not changed back to the Watchers' battle attire; he was still wearing the patterned white robe he had worn in front of Leonhardt, the hem fluttering in the strong wind.
He was observing.
Perhaps still influenced by divine authority, Ning Feng did not immediately revert to his usual harmless appearance.
Unlike his usual gentle smile, Ning Feng, high in the sky, had a calm and indifferent expression.
Bathed in the silvery-white light of the Sky City, he truly looked like an envoy representing the Sky City.
Sunlight streamed down from behind, casting a shadow over Ning Feng and making his face appear somewhat dim due to the backlighting.
Only a pair of eyes, gleaming with cold rationality, stood out brightly.
The immense pressure from the massive floating city behind them created an unseen pressure on everyone who witnessed it.
With such an appearance, coupled with Ning Feng's previous performance in the Star Chaser competition, no legend would doubt that Ning Feng's current performance was a disguise.
That distance wasn't the limit for them; they could clearly see Ning Feng's face.
Moreover, it's more accurate to say that Ning Feng's current appearance is more in line with their impression of an awakened member of the demon lineage.
Dark, gloomy, and aloof... these labels don't make them look good in the Awakened's circle.
Ning Feng's bizarre and brutal behavior during the competition was considered genuine, while his elegant aristocratic demeanor was automatically dismissed as a pretense.
The legends fell silent, but not because of Ning Feng's contrast.
Aside from their initial shock, they quickly realized that the person Keynes was welcoming was not Ning Feng, but rather someone from Sky City.
However, even so, it could not conceal the strangeness that Ning Feng revealed at that moment.
The residual aura on the opponent was definitely beyond what his current strength could possibly display.
Legendary... no, even more than legendary!
Something must have happened while the screen was black.
Combined with Ning Feng's previous display of legendary swordsmanship in the competition, it's not hard to deduce that Ning Feng harbors a great secret.
But so what?
Even though they knew that Ning Feng seemed to possess special items, which might even be more valuable than most legendary items, no one dared to harbor any ill intentions.
It wasn't just the worry about a potential powerful figure behind Ning Feng, but also because of a name—
【Watchmen】
The world's largest organization of awakened beings, the pinnacle of human power, the guardians who coordinate the world...
In today's world, no organization dares to openly bare its fangs at the Watchers.
There may have been some... but later, after a series of friendly exchanges, they all became things of the past.
Throughout these millennia, the Watchers have remained steadfast, like a colossal entity looming over the world, overlooking humanity.
Not to mention...
Now, one of the three most famous wonders of the Watchers is right behind Ning Feng.
Anyone who wants to harm him at this time must have truly lost their mind.
Thus, the legends remained silent amidst various speculations, awaiting an outcome.
We await how things will proceed.
Which part is causing the problem?
No one present was unaware of what Sky City meant, but it was precisely because they understood that they were even less able to comprehend it!
As humanity's last bastion and the sky city that once saved mankind, it holds a special meaning for all humankind.
Even if it falls behind in development and may be strategically inferior to the most advanced war machines, the special significance of Sky City is even more important.
Not to mention, Sky City, a colossal floating city equipped with various special devices, is itself a most precious treasure.
The Watchers would never allow such a war fortress to leave its original location...
Why?
What could be the reason that it would reappear before the world once again?
"this……"
Although it doesn't appear large on the surface, among all the legends, the Blue-Eyed Legend is the most astonishing.
"What's going on!?"
"How did the Sky City suddenly get involved when it was clearly just Augustus and the Swordholder plotting to obtain the path to godhood?!"
This doesn't make sense!
Why?!
Wait……
"Could it be that the Sky City came for Augustus?"
The more I thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. Could it be that Augustus and his group's plan had already been discovered?
Then the Watchers didn't make any moves to alert the enemy, but instead kept entrapment until now before finally making their move.
Actually, this idea is quite reasonable.
Augustus was so powerful that ordinary legends would have a hard time defeating him. At this point, it seemed only natural that he would rely on the powerful external force of the Sky City.
