The failure of the Four Symbols Labyrinth meant that Yang Rui and the others were likely to face a tough battle. It was just a matter of how many casualties they would suffer, and whether Sky City could successfully enter the inner city of Upper Ink City would be a huge test.
In just a few moments, the circle of formation flags around the Four Symbols Labyrinth was removed one after another, and the fog that originally shrouded the surroundings instantly dissipated. The scenery immediately became clear, and all the Mechanical Dolls and Mechanical Beasts returned to normal.
"There are only four formation flags left, and they're the formation eyes in each direction. Although they're more concealed, the enemy seems to have the ability to detect formations. I think the remaining formation flags won't last long …"
There were a total of 16 array flags that Guo Jia had set up. Four of them were placed in the inner layer as the eye of the array and played the main role of maintaining the array. Just like the current situation, although the surrounding array flags had been removed one by one, it only caused the surrounding area to return to normal. The fog that shrouded Upper Ink City still existed.
However, as if to verify Guo Jia's words, the fog that shrouded Upper Ink City also dispersed after a few breaths. Not a single trace of the Four Symbols Maze could be found. It was as if it had never appeared in the first place.
At this time, Yang Rui had already controlled Sky City to fly high in the sky, out of the range of the long-range forces of the defenders, and gradually arrived above the inner city of Upper Ink City.
"Master, should we continue to attack?" Zhang Ning asked.
Yang Rui and the other four were currently in the small meeting room of Sky City, and they could clearly see the situation in Upper Ink City below. Naturally, they were all a little anxious.
"Let's descend first and test the waters before we decide."
Everyone's attention was on Yang Rui. At this time, only he could decide whether to continue the mission. Obviously, Yang Rui wasn't willing to stop the mission just like that.
Therefore, Yang Rui controlled Sky City to slowly descend from above the city lord's mansion in Upper Ink City. He was testing the waters. Even if he didn't have full confidence for the time being, he could at least get a closer understanding of the situation in Upper Ink City and make preparations for the future mission.
Sky Castle was originally at a height of at least 100 meters, but under Yang Rui's control, it gradually rose to a height of about 200 meters. Until now, there had been no movement in Upper Ink City. Although the range of the crossbow machine was long, that was only when it was fired horizontally. Now, it had to be fired into the air. Its range would definitely be greatly reduced.
Moreover, the crossbows in Upper Ink City were currently set up on the inner and outer city walls, which were far away from the city lord's mansion. Therefore, they were not a threat to Sky City. What Yang Rui needed to pay attention to were the long-range threats around the city lord's mansion.
"Sou!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! "
“.....”
Originally, Yang Rui had been trying to make Sky Castle descend slowly because he hadn't received any long-range attacks. At this moment, it was as if a densely packed skylight had suddenly opened above the city lord's mansion in Upper Ink City. Thick and heavy shadows shot out of the skylight at high speed, rushing straight towards Sky City.
"Pu!"
"Poof! Puff! Puff! "
“.....”
The attack came too suddenly. Even though Yang Rui had been vigilant for possible dangers, he didn't have time to stop Sky City's descent. Besides, objects in the game also had inertia when they landed.
At this moment, a large number of black shadows hit Sky City like raindrops, even though Sky City was a soul-type Earth-grade item. Even though Sky City was an Earthen Earth Tier item, it was still trembling from the attacks. A small section of its long durability bar was also missing!
Although the attacks of the shadows were not as powerful as Gao Shun's attack on Sky City, their huge number was still there. It was normal for them to cause damage to Sky City. Moreover, this kind of attack was still ongoing.
At this time, Yang Rui and the others also clearly saw the shapes of the shadows. Several of them directly hit the windows under Sky City's small meeting room. These shadows turned out to be javelin-like weapons as thick as an arm. They didn't know how they shot up.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The moment Sky City was attacked, Yang Rui reacted. He hurriedly slowed down Sky City's descent and then rose into the air to escape the attack range.
However, at this time, Yang Rui inadvertently glanced at the shadows and found that the range of the shadows seemed to be far beyond the height of one to two hundred meters. Those shadows around Sky City that didn't hit went straight up into the sky. Looking at the final height, they should be more than five to six hundred meters!
Was the opponent hiding their strength from the beginning?! It seemed that they didn't intend to let Sky City go and wanted to destroy it directly!
At this time, Yang Rui's mind was racing. Obviously, Sky City would be severely damaged even if it rose into the air. Perhaps it would be too late to escape from Upper Ink City's attack range! Thinking of this, Yang Rui made up his mind and directly accelerated Sky City to crash into Upper Ink City's City Lord Mansion …
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! "
“.....”
"Pu! Pu! Pu! "
“.....”
The powerful shadows kept hitting Sky City, and Sky City's durability continued to drop. Soon, one-third of it was gone!
"Phew …"
"Boom! Boom boom boom … "
However, Sky City's height was already more than a hundred meters above the ground. At this time, under Yang Rui's acceleration, Sky City crashed into Upper Ink City's City Lord Mansion with the force of Mount Tai!
A large cloud of thick dust rose like a comet colliding. Sky City, which was thousands of acres in size, directly covered the City Lord Mansion. The attacks of the shadows on the roof of the mansion had stopped abruptly. Even the entire City Lord Mansion had collapsed …
However, Sky City was also in a mess. Everyone in it was dizzy from the fall. Most of the Liegeman NPCs and Yellow Turban Soldiers had fainted on the ground!
Those who were slightly better were Yang Rui and a few other historical generals and famous historical figures, as well as the Formation Breaker Camp soldiers who were buffed by Gao Shun's "Formation Breaker" ultimate skill. At this time, some of the Formation Breaker Camp soldiers were slowly crawling up from the ground.
"Phew …"
Yang Rui let out a long breath. Sky City's durability was less than one-fifth. But in the end, it was saved. Moreover, the injuries suffered by the people inside were not fatal. After all, Sky City was a city. Moreover, it was not at a very high altitude. It was far better than a plane crash in the real world.
Although Yang Rui's action just now was not the most ideal way, if he wanted to escape in the air, the result would not be better than now. It was very likely that the city would be destroyed and the people would die!
"System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, you have destroyed Upper Ink City's City Lord Mansion. Please choose whether you want to conquer or destroy Upper Ink City?"
"Conquer!"
At this time, the system notification was very pleasing to the ear. Yang Rui almost immediately chose to conquer Upper Ink City.
"System Notification: You have chosen to conquer Upper Ink City. You have obtained temporary control of Upper Ink City. As the City Lord Mansion has been destroyed, the city's attribute panel can be seen from your character panel …"
Following the system notification, Yang Rui cheered in his heart. He immediately opened Upper Ink City's attribute panel.
"Name: Upper Ink City (Can change the name once after conquering it!)

However, Yang Rui rejoiced too early. It was unrealistic to think that the battle of Upper Ink City would end just like that!
"System Notification: Due to the destruction of Upper Ink City's City Lord Mansion, all defensive Mechanical Dolls and Mechanical Beasts have temporarily lost control of the City Lord Mansion and are in a paralyzed state. After two hours, they will regain their mobility and launch a counterattack. Player, please be prepared …"
"System Notification: Due to the temporary occupation of Upper Ink City by you, you have triggered the defense mechanism of Upper Ink City. The Mohist Mechanical Beasts are about to awaken. Player, please be prepared! The countdown began. Just as Yang Rui opened his character panel with interest and was about to take a closer look at the attributes of Upper Ink City, two more system notifications popped up. Yang Rui did not even have the time to take a look at the attributes of Upper Ink City.
"… Roar …"
By the time Yang Rui reacted, the countdown had already reached the end. A powerful beastly roar came from beneath the City Lord Mansion.
"Roar …"
Originally, due to the impact of Sky City, the dust around the City Lord Mansion had yet to settle. After two to three beastly roars, a huge head suddenly emerged from the ruins of the City Lord Mansion. The huge Sky City was even knocked into a small section, showing the power of this collision!
