Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 68: The trial begins

Views:

Wild Wolf Valley is located about 70 kilometers west of Black Flame City. The distance of 70 kilometers is not very difficult for Zhang Tie and others to complete in one day. As long as they grit their teeth, most people can do it. You can persevere, but if this journey is coupled with the dozens of kilograms of luggage each person carries, then this journey will undoubtedly be a difficult test for everyone.

The scenery outside Heiyan City is very different from the scenery inside the city. Within 10 kilometers of the city, the places that can be cultivated are all intertwined fields. You can see some farmers working in the fields. A watchtower will be installed at a certain distance. The watchtower serves one function: a warning, and the second function is to allow people working in the fields to take refuge in the watchtower when encountering some emergencies. Outside the city, you may be attacked by dangerous creatures at any time.

After one kilometer away from the city, Zhang Tie and the others passed the first farm town on the road. Compared with the more than 30-meter-high city wall of Black Flame City, the wall of the farm town that Zhang Tie and the others passed was only about five meters high. High, it seems very thin. This height is not an obstacle at all to many monsters and dangerous creatures. The town is not large in area. It is less than one square kilometer by visual inspection. Outside the farm town, there are patches of land. Many people were working in the fields in broad daylight. People working in the field on the roadside stopped what they were doing when they saw Zhang Tie and the others passing by.

"Which school are you from?" A farmer in his thirties asked loudly while standing in a wheat field on the side of the road.

"Seventh Middle School!" Someone in the team answered.

"Ha... ha... I graduated from No. 10 Middle School. Guys, try to kill more wild beasts. There are more and more wild beasts outside the city..."

"We will… "

"Try to come back alive, and don't urinate or defecate casually in the woods..." The farmer in the field continued to say loudly.

"What… "

"Don't let your bare buttocks be exposed to the air..."

"Crazy!" the voice in the team who was talking to the farmer cursed, and then the team continued to move forward. Zhang Tie looked at the farmer standing in the field, his face tanned by the sun, and his heart moved, but he silently turned the farmer He kept his words in mind.

The further away the towns and farms they encountered were from Black Flame City, the smaller the town and farm were, and the lower the town walls were. In the end, when everyone walked out ten kilometers away from Black Flame City, the last small town The town wall has turned into a wooden fence more than three meters high. When Zhang Tie and the others passed by the town, a rapid sound of bells suddenly sounded from a wooden observation deck in the fields outside the town. , upon hearing the bell, the farmers in the fields quickly dropped their tools and ran to the town. At the same time, a group of heavily armed men and horses from the town had already rushed out.

"Defend on the spot..." Captain Colin shouted, and then he rushed out with a long gun like a galloping war horse. After three years in this school, many people have never seen Colin until today. The captain took action.

"Oh my god, Captain Colin's speed is at least twenty meters per second..." All the animals barked, and everyone looked at Captain Colin's performance.

In just a few breaths, Captain Colin had already rushed hundreds of meters away from the team. Then, in the eyes of all the animals, everyone saw a huge blood scorpion totem rising behind Captain Colin.

"War spirit, that is the fighting spirit of Captain Colin. Captain Colin is a blood scorpion warrior..." More animals screamed. Just as the animals screamed, Colin appeared with the blood scorpion fighting spirit totem on his body. The captain jumped up from the ground like an eagle. When he reached the highest point, he threw the spear in his hand like lightning. Captain Colin's heroic appearance at this moment fascinated everyone. Until many years later, Zhang In Tie's mind, he still remembered the man who flew up like an eagle and threw the spear in his hand.

Captain Colin threw the spear, and in an instant, the sonic boom of the spear tearing through the air came from the distance. Along with the explosion, there was also a shocking scream from an unknown beast. sound, and then everything came to an abrupt end...

The team started moving forward again.

After walking two hundred meters, all the animals saw the result of Captain Colin's shot. A fifth-level mutant monster, the Colorful Leopard, that had just emerged from the nearby forest and was nearly two meters long without its tail. A spear was nailed to the ground on the roadside like a shrimp. The spear was three feet into the ground, and only half of the gun body was outside.

Captain Colin just said a few words to the group of soldiers who came out of the town, then turned back and pulled out the spear nailed to the monster with one hand, and then continued to lead everyone on the road.

When Captain Colin came back, he had become a hero in the hearts of all the animals. No matter how scary the one-eyed dragon was in school, after leaving the city, everyone discovered how heartbreaking it was to be with such a one-eyed dragon. An's matter, and the dead colorful leopard is using its body and the blood on the ground to remind everyone passing by that this is just the beginning.

"Did you hear the explosion in the air just now after Captain Colin threw the spear?" Baghdad asked everyone.

Zhang Tie and the people next to him nodded.

"Nonsense, why didn't you hear it!" replied the already weak fat man Barry, "I didn't expect the one-eyed dragon to be so powerful?"

"You don't understand what I mean!" Baghdad looked like he was scratching his head but didn't know how to express it. "I mean, what did you see from the shot thrown by Captain Colin?"

"Very good, very powerful!" Doug said naively, which made Baghdad roll his eyes at him.

"You mean Captain Colin's blow was special?" Wright asked, rolling his eyes.

"Of course, if I guess correctly, Captain Colin's blow has reached the level of a sonic strike!"

"Sound attack? What is sound attack?" Shavin asked curiously.

"The so-called sound attack is a term I heard in the battle hall. It means a phenomenon that occurs when the attack speed of masters exceeds the sound. The propagation speed of sound in the air is 340 meters per second. When the speed of an object in the air exceeds this speed, it will break a certain invisible barrier in the air. They call that barrier the sound barrier. When the sound barrier is broken, there will be a huge explosion in the air, so The attack is called sound attack, which is the sign of a master!"

"You mean..." Barry looked at Baghdad in disbelief.

"Yes, I think that in Captain Colin's blow just now, the speed of the spear when he threw it exceeded 340 meters per second. Because it broke the sound barrier, we heard the sound of the spear in the air. A violent explosion!" At this point, Baghdad cast his admiring gaze on the back of the tall one-eyed dragon at the front of the team, "Captain Colin is really a very powerful man!"

"Is this sound attack difficult to practice?" Zhang Tie asked curiously.

"It's not just hard to practice!" Baghdad shook his head, "I heard that in Black Flame City, the easiest people to hit with sound attacks are those archers who have strong physical strength and can control super-heavy war bows. As long as they have strength and Anyone with enough physical strength to operate a super-heavy war bow can use the characteristics of the bow and arrow to deliver a sound attack. However, in the entire Black Flame City, there are less than 50 people who can use the simplest sound attack from a war bow. Anyone, as long as anyone can operate those super-heavy war bows to hit the sound, the Black Flame City military will immediately grant him the rank of second lieutenant and allow him to enjoy the treatment of an officer. The Black Flame City military has long wanted to rank among the three ace guns. In addition to the soldier phalanx, an 'eagle strike phalanx' was formed using super-heavy war bows for long-range strikes, so as to complement the spearmen Fangzheng. Unfortunately, it has not been possible for so many years. You can imagine the value of this skill, and Colin The captain uses the power of throwing to achieve the effect of sound strike, which is more difficult than using a war bow to achieve the effect of sound strike!"

After Baghdad said this, everyone understood the value of this sound attack, and everyone admired Captain Colin's strength.

Throughout the morning, when the animals in The Seventh Man were panting for 30 kilometers one by one, and when they almost felt like they were being crushed into a struggling turtle by their luggage, everyone arrived at their stop for lunch break, which is located in There is an inconspicuous train station near the Gelang Iron Mine in the northwest of Heiyan City. It is also the train station that extends to the far west of Heiyan City. After this station, the railway slowly extends to the Gelang Iron Mine in the north. The trains that travel between Heiyan City and the Gelang Iron Mine are responsible for freight and communication between the two places. Every day, there are trains of trains transporting the iron ore dug from the mines to the steel mills in Heiyan City. , supporting the prosperity of Black Flame City - the Grand Iron Mine is a well-known super iron mine, with a mineral reserve of six billion tons. It is the largest iron mine in the entire Andaman Alliance, and can also be found in the entire Blackson Human Corridor. Entering the top three, half of everything in Black Flame City is built on this super iron mine.

While resting near the train station, Zhang Tie and the others saw their companions who had gone to the Wild Wolf Valley with them to complete the survival trial. Twenty minutes after Zhang Tie and the others settled down, the animals from the Black Flame City Second National Boys' High School also After arriving here, the girls from Black Flame City's No. 4 and No. 11 Girls' High Schools also got off the bus at this small station and looked at the groups of people who were also carrying their luggage and pouring out of the station. Girls, the eyes of all the animals sitting on the roadside resting suddenly widened, and saliva flowed from their mouths while eating.
