Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 19 Prelude to Troubled Times

When Zhang Tie came back to Wild Wolf Castle, Wild Wolf Castle had turned into a mess. Just before he came, Zhang Tie passed the tree house, and the tree house was empty. He saw the red smoke column of Wild Wolf Castle. Barry and the others had already arrived at Wild Wolf Castle first. At the tree house, there was only a sentence written by Barry and others on the tree - we are in Wild Wolf Castle!

This sentence was naturally written for Zhang Tie to read. Barry and the others seemed to think that Zhang Tie would go to the tree house to have a look when he saw the signal and returned, so they left this sentence.

At this time, the faces of many animals were filled with bewilderment and a trace of fear. When the huge war machine of the Norman Empire flew over everyone's heads, many people who saw this huge war machine in reality instead of books for the first time were shocked, and everyone felt their own insignificance . Heiyan City also has airships, but the airships in Heiyan City are only tens of meters in size, and they float above Heiyan City. Compared with the airships of Heiyan City and the airships of the Norman Empire that everyone sees today, that is the difference between rabbits and lions. Of course a rabbit and a lion feel completely different.

There was chaos in the square, piles of livestock began to gather, and there was a lot of discussion. Many people just saw the airship, but they haven't fully figured out the situation today. Just like when they came here, they have accepted the semi-militarization in school for many years At this time, education began to show a little effect. Although everyone was afraid, the basic sense of discipline was still there.

Moreover, the blue and green flag flying over the castle also gave everyone some comfort. The sudden appearance of the Norman Empire's army is certainly frightening, but know that the Norman Empire's army will not attack itself. Everyone felt a little comforted. What everyone was most worried about at this time was not themselves, but their family members who were still in Heiyan City.

As soon as Zhang Tie arrived at Wild Wolf Castle, he was spotted by Wright who was guarding the small road leading to the valley from the castle square.

"Big head..." Among the chaotic crowd, Wright rushed over and hugged Zhang Tie, "It's good that you come back. Everyone was worried that you might not be able to come back in time if you are alone outside!" Having said that, Wright Carefully looking around, he quietly approached Zhang Tie's ear, and lowered his voice, "Gris also went to the Lone Walker Trial some time ago, and everyone is very worried about you after knowing the news..."

The concerned look on Wright's face and the excitement at seeing Zhang Tie made Zhang Tie feel warm in his heart, facing Wright's question. Zhang Tie patted Wright on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm fine, how are you doing these days?"

"Very good, Pandora and the others are also very good, by the way. Have you met Gris?"

"Gris? I haven't seen him for a long time. He might have disappeared from this world!" Zhang Tie said meaningfully, with a smile on his face.

do not know why,

After only seeing each other for a few days, Wright already felt that Zhang Tiehe was obviously different from when he left. Zhang Tie's appearance has not changed, but his whole temperament. But there is a big difference from when he left, more confident, calmer, more unpredictable, and there is a faint scorching edge.

Could it be that the Lone Walker Trial can really change a person so much in just a few days? Wright thought with some doubts.

There were many people in the square, not only the cattle of the Brotherhood were waiting for Zhang Tie to appear, but also the brothers in the mine were paying attention to him, Porter, Wood, Gandhi, Jones, Franza, the brothers in the mine They all gathered together to form a small group. Seeing Zhang Tie appear, everyone in the small group had a smile on their faces, and they were slightly excited. And compared to other people in the square, the small group of brothers from the mine had less commotion. Many people sat on the ground calmly, with a calm expression on their faces.

Zhang Tie nodded to Porter and the others, and said hello, but did not go over, while Porter and the others had a clear look on their faces - the Ancient Gods Society is still a huge secret.

"Do you know those guys?" Seeing Zhang Tie greeting Potter and the others, Wright asked slightly strangely.

"I know, those are friends I met when I was mining!"

"Oh, so that's the case, I thought you also joined the Divine Grace Society?"

"Sacred Grace? What kind of Divine Grace?" Zhang Tie became confused.

"It's the club organized by those guys. These guys are completely lunatics. They regard mining as a kind of practice. I heard that they have to perform mysterious prayers and kiss those cold mineral deposits before mining. All the miners were scared away by them. A few days after you left, the Charity Society completely occupied the mine. These guys are very united and have strong combat effectiveness. The mining is more powerful than the other, just like a natural miner. One person had something to do and a bunch of people rushed forward desperately. Just a week ago, a small group of more than 20 people bullied one of their members, and those more than 60 guys rushed forward together desperately. On the other hand, they beat those ten or so guys to their knees and begged for mercy on the spot, after the disbandment of Gris' Lion Club, these guys from the God's Grace Club can be regarded as a new club that has become more popular in the Wild Wolf Castle recently."

Wright was talking while walking, but he didn't notice that Zhang Tie's eyes were protruding when he heard these words. Zhang Tie really didn't expect that after some fooling around in his "caveman survival mode", these guys would unite instead , Just like finding the direction of the future, creativity began to burst out, and a few unlucky diggers also started to play clubs. And this Shinto shrine, why does it sound like it has some unclear relationship with the ancient god that I made up.

Barry and others gathered in the square, and Wright took Zhang Tie to find Barry and the others. Everyone was very happy to see Zhang Tie come back, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"You guys wait here first, I have something urgent to go to Captain Colin and the teacher of the temporary inspection committee!" After greeting everyone in the fraternity, Zhang Tie was about to go to Captain Colin.

"What's the big deal, so urgent?" Barry asked.

Zhang Tie looked around at those guys who were not clear about the situation and were talking about it. He beckoned and asked a few guys to lean over their heads. "I met the Iron Horn Legion of the Norman Empire in the Crescent Grassland?"

"What?" Several people almost jumped up. The marching route of the Iron Horn Legion's ground troops was divided into two at the junction of the Crescent Grassland and the Wild Wolf Valley. The Norman Empire chose a route that was more suitable for large troops. The route of action rushed towards Heiyan City. That route was basically parallel to the side of the Wild Wolf Valley, separated by the two mountain ranges on both sides of the valley, but at least ten kilometers apart. Of course, it is impossible for these guys who were trying out in the valley to know. Maybe some people can feel something, but they definitely can't guess how scary the Norman Empire's troops are when they move together.

"How many people?" Barry asked in a low voice.

"There are at least 100,000 troops passing in front of me. There are more than 50,000 cavalry riding iron horned beasts alone. There are also a large number of armored troops. Before I rushed back, the troops of the Norman Empire were still coming from the Crescent Grassland There is a steady stream of openings over there. You can't see the end at a glance! I must report this situation to the temporary supervision committee immediately..."

Everyone in the Brotherhood turned pale when they heard Zhang Tie's description. Faced with this shocking change that happened around them, everyone felt a kind of weakness while worrying. What can a few teenagers do in front of such power?

Just got separated from the frat guy. Zhang Tie rushed into the Wild Wolf Castle. Zhang Tie, who had just rushed in, met Captain Colin and Jerome at the gate of the castle, and the three of them almost collided. Seeing that it was them, Zhang Tie hurried up and reported his encounter with the Norman Empire army to the two of them. To Zhang Tie's surprise, during the listening process. Jerome and Captain Colin asked Zhang Tie a few details, but the expressions on the faces of the two never seemed too shocked.

"Did you already know?"

"No, we don't know, we just guessed it. When we saw the war airships of the Norman Empire, we only counted the number of those airships with binoculars, and we knew that the Iron Horn Legion will definitely not be less. !” Jerome smiled slightly.

"Teacher, then do you think that Heiyan City will be safe? My brother is still serving in the Heiyan City Guard!" Zhang Tie asked what he was most concerned about, with an urgent tone, "Can I go back and see now? ""The current Black Flame City is probably surrounded by the Iron Horn Legion. Do you think you can break through the blockade of the Norman Empire? The gates of the Black Flame City must be closed. Even if you can rush Under the city wall, will the city guards of Heiyan City open the gate for you alone?" Jerome asked.

Thinking about the scene he saw those troops, and the tense state of Hei Yancheng at this time, Zhang Tie shook his head.

"Don't worry, according to my estimate, it will be very difficult to fight in Heiyan City, your brother will be fine!" Jerome looked at Zhang Tie, and felt more and more appreciative of this young man, who was able to go to the New Moon Grassland alone. Trials, this shows the strength of this young man, and the ability to rush back to report to the teacher of the temporary supervision committee as soon as he found the Norman Empire army, this shows the loyalty of this young man. Having students like this really makes teachers feel gratified.

Jerome's words gave Zhang Tie a lot of peace of mind, and Zhang Tie thought of another question, "Teacher, has the war already arrived?"

"Yes, the war has come, but this war may end very quickly..." Jerome sighed a little, he patted Zhang Tie on the shoulder, and said with some earnestness, "This war The strength of the two sides is too different, it is a confrontation between a lion and a rabbit. You said that if Captain Colin took a knife and went murderously to grab the candy in the hands of a primary school student, would that primary school student dare to hand over what he was holding? Captain Colin? That elementary school student is still an orphan and has no backing..."

Zhang Tie glanced at Captain Colin quietly, and found that Cyclops was dissatisfied with Jerome's metaphor, very dissatisfied, and Cyclops gave Jerome a hard look. "Don't dare!"

"That's it! This is what war is like. The purpose of the Norman Empire is to snatch, not destroy, but when a guy as powerful as Captain Colin starts tearing his face off to grab candy from a child, Do you know what it means when you go grab a few bottles of wine that a good old man has managed to get?"

"What does it mean?"

"Troubled times are coming..." Jerome's tone was sleepy, and his eyes turned to the distance, "War is just the first appetizer of this blood feast called Troubled Times..."

Zhang Tie was stunned, troubled times? This is the first time someone whispered this word in his ear...
