To Winged Devils—especially Winged Devil knights—human airships in the sky were simply their toys, not even worthy of being called toys. Any Winged Devil knight could effortlessly shoot down every airship within his field of vision, inflicting enormous losses upon humanity.
There were many airships in the sky, clearly coming from the direction of Martial Prefecture. One after another, they trailed along like a string of barges on a canal. A fleet of over five hundred airships was withdrawing toward Ring Prefecture.
This was a juicy piece of meat, belonging either to Great Xia's government or one of Great Xia's powerful clans.
The Winged Devil lay in the water, separated from the surface by only a shallow layer, his scarlet eyes gleaming with savage light as he stared at the airships overhead.
The airships in the sky were a temptation to the Winged Devil. Yet around those airships, within visible range, aside from the airship at the very front, two blurry black dots hovered in the air, guarding the fleet.
Those two human knights in the sky would have great difficulty discovering the Winged Devil concealed in the water below.
