Forced Surrender

Laila was utterly despairing. It was not that the Elf Empire lacked top-tier floating cities; it was precisely because they possessed them that she understood just how terrifying their power was. They were existences that even ordinary God Kingdom level experts found difficult to resist alone.

Sputon City's defenses were extremely formidable. With her stationed there, even if the Sacred Co-Prosperity Kingdom sent a million elite troops, they would find it difficult to breach the city.

The next moment, Laila soared into the air, riding elemental tides like a storm
