The black tide line quickly pushed across the sky above Qianye's head, and the surrounding immediately became extremely dark, as if the night had suddenly fallen. He turned his head and looked far away, and he could see that the light in the wilderness in the distance was fading away, and the black tide was sweeping across the sky with an unstoppable momentum.
The blue light in Qianye's eyes flickered, and he looked at his hands. The slender five fingers are entwined with thin dark force, and they are very active at this time, whirling and dancing, bumping into Qianye's skin from time to time, causing a slight tingling sensation.
The dark world ruled by black is separated into dark and light blocks in the real vision.
Qianye found that the dark force was constantly seeping out of the void, dissolving like ink stains, until it met another group, stained and transformed. Looking carefully, those rapidly changing figures turned out to be phantoms of various ferocious beasts, all of which were roaring desperately, constantly fighting each other.
Suddenly, an inexplicable irritability surged into his heart, and Qianye felt an impulse in an instant, wanting to plunge in and make a big kill. Immediately he woke up, with a layer of cold sweat on his back, such a familiar feeling, as if he had returned to those days when the black blood broke out, thirsting for blood and killing.
At this time, an indescribable tremor rose from the deepest part of Qianye's heart, and he suddenly knew what the Black Tide was.
That was a domain, so huge that even with his extraordinary vision, he couldn't see the boundary! An unknown existence covered the sky and the earth with its own domain.
Qianye slowly took a few deep breaths, stood still for a while, then jumped back on the motorcycle and turned back to Heiliu City. After the initial restlessness passed, Qianye discovered that the influence of the black tide and black blood was still different. The black tide caused the sudden activation of the dark force in nature, making creatures uneasy, while the black blood eroded and assimilated the creatures' minds.
However, this discovery can only be used as a way of comforting him, and it does not make him feel at ease.
Now Black Stream City and its surrounding areas, perhaps the entire Sanhe County has been covered by the Kuroshio, and it is impossible to evacuate residents on a large scale. No matter what the situation is, the city is safer than the wilderness, not to mention the extent of the Kuroshio, and where it expands is the boundary, which is unknown. In other words, no one knows where the safe zone is.
When Qianye returned to Heiliu City, the Kuroshio had already crossed here and continued to extend deep into the human territory. It was dark between the sky and the earth, and even the brief hours of sunlight every day had been lost.
Such a vision naturally caused the residents of Heiliu City to panic, but when Qianye entered the city, he found that everything was extremely peaceful. This was all the result of Zhao Yuying's iron and blood methods. As soon as the black tide appeared, she immediately recruited the senior officer Song Hu and others who were left behind by the dark fire, and declared martial law throughout the city.
All the dark fire garrisons were sent to the streets, and guards were set up at various important intersections. Then she went out to patrol in person, and killed dozens of people with thunderbolts, or those who panicked and caused riots, or those who wanted to take advantage of the fire, kill people and set fire, and finally shocked the hunters, mercenaries and adventurers who flocked into the city.
As for the native residents of Heiliu City, most of them became extremely honest during the half a month that the group of imperial ladies stayed.
As soon as he returned to the dark fire base, Qianye immediately went to find Zhao Yuying, and asked, "Is it a beast tide?"
Zhao Yuying was unusually serious: "No, it's worse than the beast tide. If I remember correctly, this is probably the Iron Curtain."
"Iron Curtain?" Qianye was taken aback, he always thought this word was just a metaphor, not a real thing.
"It's not surprising that you haven't heard of it. The Iron Curtain usually appears on the mainland of the Dark Kingdom, and at most it only extends to the far borders of the Empire, covering a small area on the border. The news of the past has been suppressed by the Empire. Fang's top-level secret. I only know a little bit of news because of the old man's favor."
Qianye looked out the window, the sky was as dark as before. However, it wasn't a complete night. There was a layer of leaden gray light in the sky, which made people feel extremely depressing. It was indeed like a boundless iron curtain covering the entire earth.
In the world under the Iron Curtain, there is no sun, moon, or stars.
"What the hell is that?"
"You should feel that the Iron Curtain is actually a domain, an unbelievably large domain. According to the records of the empire, the Iron Curtain with the smallest scope is half the size of a province. As for the larger one, no one can find out. its true boundaries."
"Since it is a domain, there must be people who can release it. This kind of power is incredible. What kind of existence has such power?"
Zhao Yuying smiled bitterly and said, "Perhaps they can't be called human beings. The empire has a heavenly king, and the dark race has a maharaja. Similarly, fierce beasts also have their own emperors. If we only talk about strength, they are the real ones who stand at the pinnacle of power in this world." Powerful. In addition, there are some unimaginably powerful creatures wandering in the void. If you look at it from the perspective of ordinary people, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are gods."
Qianye just found it incredible, "Is the Iron Curtain the domain of the beast king?"
"As far as I know, that's the case, without exception."
Qianye opened his mouth in astonishment, but didn't know what to say. After a while, he said, "The iron curtain shouldn't appear for no reason, right?" The king will not do meaningless things.
"I just heard that it may be that those kings discovered a certain rare thing that is bound to be acquired, or some special places and areas. They released the Iron Curtain to declare their sovereignty and set their own home field. It is said that one of the top ten guns , there are two gun souls, born in the Iron Curtain."
This time Qianye was completely silent. At the level of the Top Ten Famous Spears, it was a battlefield for Maharajas and Heavenly Kings. Not to mention the Heiliu City war zone, but the entire Sanhe County, and even the expeditionary force are as small as ants. Maybe those big shots find it troublesome to glance over.
However, because of this, if the city gate catches fire and the fish in the pond are affected, even if the aftermath passes by, neither Dark Fire nor Heiliu City can bear it.
Zhao Yuying was also exposed to the Iron Curtain for the first time, so she was not very clear about what would happen next. But she had the same idea as Qianye, a large-scale evacuation was impossible, even if the residents of Heiliu City were ignored, the movement of the entire Dark Fire Legion was quite a movement, who knew what would happen.
All that can be done now is to wait for changes.
However, neither Qianye nor Zhao Yuying liked to be completely passive. After the two of them agreed on a strategy, they planned to wander around the city and the wilderness separately, hoping to gain more control over the situation.
As time passed, Qianye gradually got used to the oppression and irritability brought by the Iron Curtain, other than that, there seemed to be no other abnormalities. However, a domain is a domain, and it is quite dangerous to be in someone else's domain. Twilight just proved this to Qianye.
At this moment, in the void outside the Eternal Night Continent, a light boat tens of meters long is gliding. It looks like a retro sailboat, with several sails flapping on the mast that stands tall like a flag, and the whole body is shrouded in a faint light of the original force.
The main color of the flying boat is blue and gray, and the most striking thing is the forged bronze statue of King Kong embossed on the bow of the boat, which is solemn and majestic. There are two wings on each side, housing the propellers, but otherwise no visible power plant. For an airship capable of crossing continents, its construction is surprisingly simple.
This light boat was extremely fast, even surpassing several famous military high-speed ships of the empire. It flew to the Eternal Night Continent in a blink of an eye, and then turned into a blue light in the sky without slowing down, and quickly flew away.
Below the light boat, the edge of the void is rapidly disappearing, and mountains and rivers here and there flash by like a fleeting shadow.
As he was sailing, a gentle voice suddenly came from the top room of the two-story ship building, "A distinguished guest has arrived, stop the ship." The voice was not very loud, but it spread to every corner in an instant.
The light boat slowed down suddenly, and hovered in the air in a blink of an eye. The whole process was smooth and flowing, without any sense of frustration. This is not only due to the superior performance of the airship, but the control and operation are obviously top-notch experts.
Someone in the void laughed loudly, "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you."
Suddenly there was a flash of lightning in the sky, and then the wind and clouds surged, gathering, rolling, and rotating extremely quickly, and finally formed a huge cloud covering a radius of nearly a kilometer. One person stepped on a flat boat and fell from the sky.
It was a real small boat, only a few meters long, and it was the same type of open boat that people used to go fishing on rivers. The only difference was that it exuded a metallic luster throughout, and there were occasional rune-like patterns flickering on the hull. .
The person here is tall and tall, with a pair of phoenix eyes flying high, and he has the aura of who else in the world can give me. Not Imperial Marshal Zhang Boqian, but who
Lin Xitang walked to the deck, "Is Zhang Shuai safe? It's a coincidence to meet you here."
Zhang Boqian snorted, looked Lin Xitang up and down, and then swept the light boat again. No one else came out from the upper and lower floors of the two-story ship, but the sergeants in the room, all those who were looking at Zhang Boqian were in unison, as if their sharp eyes could penetrate the wall of the ship and see them clearly.
Zhang Boqian's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "Come down and talk."
Lin Xitang smiled faintly, but didn't answer or move.
Zhang Boqian said with a sneer: "The marshal of the empire, dare not leave his own ship for half a step?"
Although Lin Xitang's expression didn't change much, his eyes flickered slightly, "Zhang Shuai must have just met King Dingxuan not long ago."
The battle between Zhang Boqian and King Dingxuan is the most important event in the empire recently. The strange thing is that the time for the battle has passed, and neither the imperial family nor the Zhang Clan have any news about this battle. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the emperor's family and several other heavenly kings have officially recognized Zhang Boqian's status as a heavenly king. That is to say, the Great Qin Empire now has five heavenly kings.
Therefore, when Lin Xitang found out that it was Zhang Boqian who came, he was actually quite surprised. It is almost impossible to get out of the battle of the strong at that level, even if you recuperate for a few years. The battle was over, Zhang Boqian didn't take a good rest, why did he come directly to the Evernight Continent
Zhang Boqian said: "I have indeed seen it."
Lin Xitang's eyes flashed, and he asked, "What's the result?"
"If you want to know, come out and talk."
Lin Xitang laughed, and suddenly stepped aside, saying: "Why don't Zhang Shuai come up and sit down, have a cup of tea, and talk about scenery and personnel affairs by the way, would you like it?"
