Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 377: A crisis that comes early

Views:

When Zhang Tie and the other five people left Tianhan City and returned to the starting camp, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.

After returning to the camp, Jerome and others changed their clothes in Zhang Tie's tent, and then Zhang Tie sent them directly out of the refugee camp.

"Anyway, the Thor Mercenary Group owes you a favor!" said the withered Professor Simon, hugging Zhang Tie goodbye. Although we have only known each other for one morning, we are all comrades who have fought together.

"Come to Amais when you have time, and I'll introduce you to the hottest girl!" Jordan said while giving Zhang Tie a bear hug, "Also, thank you for giving me the nickname, Black Tornado, I like!"

"You are a guy who can bring good luck to others!" Shrek also hugged Zhang Tie and said parting words, "Now Tianhan City is like a treasury. To be honest, I don't even want to leave. Got it!"

It was Jerome's turn, and Zhang Tie also hugged him.

"Take care of yourself!" Jerome said to Zhang Tie.

"You should also take care of yourself!" Zhang Tie said.

"Originally we wanted to go to Huaiyuan County, but it seems we can't go for the time being. Professor Simon's discovery must be notified to Thor's headquarters as soon as possible so that they can prepare for contingency!" Jerome said with a little regret. Zhang Tie said.

"Are you planning to go to Huaiyuan County?" Zhang Tie was slightly surprised by this news.

"Well, I heard that there is an alchemist in Huaiyuan County who has created a full-effect potion. After the Tianhan City incident, the supply of various potions is now very tight. Amais is a place full of poisons. As soon as the supply of antidote potions appears, The problem will cause many bad chain reactions. Originally, we planned to go to Huaiyuan County to find a solution after leaving Tianhan City, but now..." Jerome shook his head helplessly. They only had one airship. After discovering more important information, according to the priority of the matter, they naturally had no choice but to return to Ames first.

"How many full potions do you Thors need?"

"Thor's demand for full-effect potions is at least 4,000 per year!" Jerome replied. The transaction of 4,000 potions is already a large amount anywhere, especially for a mercenary group.

If the Thunder God Mercenary Group belonged to Jerome, Zhang Tie would take over this matter without hesitation for a second, patting his chest, even if it was just to give it to Jerome. Zhang Tie's purpose in life was greatly influenced by his parents, who emphasized the principle of repaying a drop of water with a spring of water. During the trial in the Wild Wolf Valley, Captain Jerome and Colin were in the cave of the Golden-Eating Python. It saved half his life, then. Naturally, Zhang Tie would not be stingy with a small amount of full-effect potion.

However, the Thor Mercenary Group does not belong to Jerome. In the Thor Mercenary Group, Jerome is just a person who has just been valued by the top management of the mercenary group. To put it bluntly, he is almost like an employee of a business group. It's not even a shareholder, so you have to think carefully about all this. If you want to return the favor to Thor, it would be a wrong expression. This favor should be returned to Jerome. At least the Thunder God Mercenary Group should accept this favor from Jerome and know the weight of Jerome. This will also be beneficial to Jerome's future development in the mercenary group.

Many thoughts flashed through Zhang Tie's mind.

Zhang Tie smiled and pretended to take something from the medicine bag of his tactical vest. In fact, he calmly took out two full-effect medicines that he had reserved as spares from the Black Iron Castle. Passed it to Jerome.

"The full potion you are talking about. Is it this kind of thing?"

When they saw the two potions that Zhang Tie took out, Zhe Ruomu and Simon were stunned.

Under the sun, the clear crystal potion bottle in Zhang Tie's hand shone with a rainbow-like brilliance, which made the green and gold potion in the potion bottle look mysterious and extraordinary. The unique Manjushahua logo on the potion bottle seemed to have a magical power, attracting the attention of several people at once.

"Ah, Manjushahua, by the way, I heard that the full-effect potion uses this Chinese logo..." Before Jerome could speak, the sharp-eyed Shrek next to him shouted first.

"Zhang Tie, do you have such a thing?"

"How can the Zhang family not have the good things in Huaiyuan County!" Zhang Tie said casually.

Looking at the two potion bottles in his hand, Jerome's eyes suddenly shone brightly, "I heard that not many of this kind of potion came out in Huaiyuan County, and no one in Ames has seen it. I only heard that Having said that this potion is magical, can this potion really be used instead of the primary detoxification potion?"

"If it's just detoxification, the effect is a little better than the primary detoxification potion. Someone around me has tried it. This kind of thing can easily relieve the poisoning symptoms of centipede!"

Hearing what Zhang Tie said, the curious Professor Simon took a full-effect potion and stared at it carefully. He seemed to want to open the potion bottle and check it, but he was a little embarrassed, so he looked at Zhang Tie with a questioning look. An iron look.

"It doesn't matter, I'll give you these two bottles of potion!"

Hearing what Zhang Tie said, Professor Simon immediately opened the sealing ring of the medicine bottle, then brought the mouth of the bottle to his nose and smelled it carefully. Then the look on his face suddenly became wonderful. Zuo Dan and Shrek also put his head closer.

"Ah, why does this medicine smell so good..." Jordan suddenly shouted.

"Is this the taste of super enzyme?" Teacher Simon looked at the bottle of potion, slightly absent-minded.

"What's the matter, Professor?" Shrek asked.

"Well, when I was young, my dream was to be an alchemist. I taught myself some knowledge of herbal medicine apprenticeship. I also once wanted to brew super enzymes and become famous all at once. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed. I wasted several years on this. Look now. When I saw this bottle of potion, I remembered what happened in the past..." Professor Simon shook his head, looking like he couldn't bear to look back on the past.

Jerome looked at Zhang Tie, and even Zhang Tie could feel the questioning and longing in his eyes.

"Next time you go to Huaiyuan County, you can go to Jinhai City and find Jinwu Trading Company. There, you can get the full potion!" Zhang Tie said to Jerome.

"Golden Crow Trading Company?" When Jerome heard about the trading company, he was a little surprised, because the so-called trading companies were all small business organizations. The bigger one is a trading company, and the bigger one is a business group. A Jinwu Trading Company in Jinhai City, Huaiyuan County that he has never heard of actually controls the hot full-effect potion. This makes Jerome feel a little incredible. , "Is Jinwu Trading Company selling this kind of thing?"

"If someone else goes to Jinwu Trading Company to buy this, they may not be able to buy it even if they spend a lot of money. If you go there, you can definitely buy it. Jinwu Trading Company has special channels to get the full potion!"

Not only Jerome understood Zhang Tie's words, but also Professor Simon, Shrek and Jordan next to him. Several people couldn't help but look at Jerome in slight surprise. Jerome... When did this guy become so powerful? anyway. Regardless of whether Zhang Tie's words were exaggerated or not, it was possible for Jerome to obtain the full potion in Huaiyuan County. This is very important news for Thor.

Jerome took a deep look at Zhang Tie. He was inexplicably moved in his heart. When Zhang Tie said what he just said, Jerome was finally convinced that the young man in front of him might grow up to the point where he would feel strange to him.

There are some things that go without saying between men.

Jerome hugged Zhang Tie again, "Take care. Hope to see you again next time!"

"Take care of yourself too!"

Zhang Tie finally separated from Jerome and others, and kept watching the backs of Jerome and others disappearing into the distance. Zhang Tie stood blankly in the wild for a while, and then took a deep breath. After looking at the scorching sun above his head, he turned back to the camp.

The sun in the sky was shining brightly at the moment, but Zhang Tie felt an inexplicable chill rising in his heart.

Looking at the backs of those leaving, Zhang Tie didn't know if these people who had just separated at this moment would have a chance to meet again in the future. Maybe this meeting would be the last time.

Last year, Tang De once told him that the time until the full outbreak of the Third Holy War would be five years or twenty years. Counting this year, Tang De had judged that the Holy War would come at the earliest four years, but today Simon The information the professor obtained from the dissection and analysis of the demonized puppet suddenly accelerated the time a lot.

The shortest time left for Zhang Tie is no longer four years, but one year, because according to Professor Simon's analysis, the Tianhan City Guards have been colonized by puppet worm eggs for more than 36 months. If not If something unexpected happens and the eggs of those puppet worms are allowed to grow naturally, then next year at the latest, or even six months later at the earliest, those eggs will hatch completely naturally...

This is a very fatal information, and the meaning revealed by this information is even more chilling. It means that the demons and the lackeys of the Three-Eyed Society developed among humans plan to set off a demonic disaster in the Hawaiian subcontinent and bring down the entire continent. The time to fully push into troubled times will be next year - August next year at the latest - this is Professor Simon's judgment on the latest hatching time of the puppet worm eggs.

The real troubled times have come, and Tianhan City is just the beginning. In the future, more and more places will become hells on earth like Tianhan City.

Zhang Tie wonders whether the destruction and exposure of the Zhen family in Tianhan City will advance some of the plans of the Demon Clan and the Three Eyes Society again, because since Professor Simon can analyze the information, Zhang Tie does not believe those in Jinyun Kingdom. Will the big family not be able to analyze it, and other countries and forces on the continent that have taken away more than one demonized puppet from Tianhan City will not be able to analyze it

Once these people speed up the pace of dealing with holy wars and demonic disasters, in fact, they are forcing the Three-Eyed Society and the demons to start in advance. Therefore, it is possible to really leave themselves and most ordinary people time to prepare. ,Shorter!

Because all wars will not start until both sides are completely ready. A war always starts with a speed competition between the two sides!

Thinking about the information that made it difficult to calm down, Zhang Tie walked in the refugee camp in a slightly depressed mood. Looking at the sad and numb faces with no hope, his mood gradually sank.

At this moment, Zhang Tie was like a man running on the plain. Originally looking at the horizon in the distance, the running man thought that he should be able to run for a while and see more hope, but suddenly Suddenly, the running man discovered that the so-called horizon was just a mirage. In fact, he was standing on the edge of a cliff, with an abyss ahead of him and no road.

A red ball rolled from a distance and hit Zhang Tie's feet. Zhang Tie, who was immersed in his own thoughts, suddenly turned his head and looked to the side.

A four or five-year-old boy with a sunny and smiling face ran over from a distance with a giggle. "Brother, can you kick the ball to me?"

The bright smile on the little boy's face made Zhang Tie startled. After wandering around the refugee camp for a few days, this was the first time Zhang Tie saw such a smile on someone's face in the refugee camp. It's like seeing a bright ray of sunshine in a sky full of dark clouds.

Zhang Tie, who was a little dazed, waited until the little boy said it a second time before he realized what was happening. He picked up the ball on the ground with his foot and picked it up. Zhang Tie took the ball and walked towards the little boy. He knelt down and touched the little boy's head. Passing the ball to him, "What, are you alone? Where is your father?"

"My dad is catching bad guys in Tianhan City!" the little boy said proudly, "He is the policeman of Tianhan City. My dad also has a set of clothes like yours. But dad's clothes are blue!!"

"Your father is catching bad guys in Tianhan City?" This answer made Zhang Tie unable to react. There are still bad guys in Tianhan City... No. Are there any living people in Tianhan City now

"Yes. My mother told me that my father is very powerful. He has caught many thieves before. We are camping outside now. After my father catches all the bad guys in Tianhan City, we can go back!"

camping? Zhang Tie looked at the refugee camp with tents everywhere. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a woman in her thirties running over in a panic, "Ah, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention when Xiaoxing was playing ball just now, so I didn't touch you!"

"Mom, I am talking to this brother about daddy!" The little boy turned his head and said to his mother.

"Ah, Little

"But I was just about to ask this brother if he has seen my father. My father also has a set of clothes similar to this brother's. This brother is also a policeman!" The little boy said innocently, and then asked Zhang Tie, "Brother, Are you a policeman too?"

"Ah... yes!" Zhang Tie smiled.

"You also catch bad guys?"

"Almost, but not as good as your dad. I haven't caught a thief yet!"

"Then are you still catching bad guys in Tianhan City every day? Have you seen my dad? How is he doing now? Mom said that dad would write to me in a few days!"

The little boy didn't see it, but when he asked this question, his mother, who was squatting behind him, burst into tears. The woman held back her tears and looked at Zhang Tie with pleading eyes.

"What's your father's name?" Zhang Tie asked patiently.

"My father's name is Fang Weiqiang!"

"Oh, I've seen it before. Last time I went to Tianhan City, I saw him catch several thieves! It's so awesome."

"Really?" The little man suddenly became happy, "Then when you see him next time, can you help me tell him that Xingxing misses him, and it's fun to live in the tent here, and I want to be with him Play!"

"Okay!" Zhang Tie nodded.

The little boy happily threw the ball on the ground, kicked it away again, and chased his ball with a giggle.

"Thank you!" The woman quickly stood up and said to Zhang Tie, wiping her tears.

Regarding such a mother's intentions, Zhang Tie couldn't find anything to say except sighing, "He will know sooner or later!"

"Just take it one day at a time to make him happy. He is still young and I don't want him to know now that he no longer has a father!" There was strength and pain in the woman's eyes.

Zhang Tie glanced at the woman and said, "My name is Zhang Tie. I'm in the Huaiyuantang camp. If you need any help, you can come to me!"

"Thank you!" The woman couldn't help but shed tears again.

Zhang Tie left the refugee camp. The woman had just taught Zhang Tie a lesson. From that woman and the child, Zhang Tie learned a truth. No matter how difficult the future is, these days will always be passed. You may not be able to Decide what happens, but you can at least decide your attitude.

A child can regard being in a refugee camp as camping and find fun in living in a tent. Then why can't he regard the unpredictable future as a huge gamble of life

The future is not starting well, but it seems that because of the full-effect potion, I have already gained a slight advantage in this bad start. The sudden shortage of pharmaceutical resources means that the weight of the full-effect pharmaceuticals in hand has become heavier. What does this portend? More money, more opportunities to control resources, more importance. Of course, there are more unpredictable dangers and hidden arrows that will surge towards you.

Zhang Tie returned to the camp, but he did not expect that the two deacons from Qianlong Hall were already waiting for him in his tent.

"Zhang Tie, the family elder wants to see you!"

Upon hearing the news, Zhang Tie was shocked. What would happen if the family elders summoned him

"Do you two eldest brothers know what happened?" Zhang Tie asked politely. Could it be that he was reported for bringing outsiders into Tianhan City? No, how could such a trivial matter alarm such a family elder? .

"We don't know either, just follow us!" The words of the two deacons were very polite and not cold at all, which calmed down Zhang Tie's slightly uneasy heart.

Zhang Tie followed the two deacons directly towards the airship flagship in the distance...
