Lord of War

Vol 3 Chapter 346: .Black Iron

  Northern Continent and Western Continent, these two continents were originally in the game and were the favorite places for party players. Because many of the gaps in history that have now been lost and faulted have actually been found in the borders of these two continents, some clues can be found for the party to infer.

  Like the northern solitary tower is actually separated from the observing minaret, this inference is that after some players found clues in the northern continent, it took several months to finally connect the relevant complete history. However, even if the northern solitary tower was separated from the observing minaret, the relationship between the two mage towers has never deteriorated, and most of the time, they have maintained a spirit of mutual discussion.

  However, the location overlooking the minaret is indeed very hidden. Those who want to look at the minaret must start from the northern solitary tower.

  In addition, the Emilia Empire in the Western Continent still retains the five oldest families on the continent today.

  These are all beautiful things that belong to history.

  It's a pity that there are too few people who can understand these beautiful history.

  Like the Dark Iron City of Earl Hecarrom, most people only think that the name of this city is vulgar, and even think that the name of Dark Iron Fort is just as bad. Earl Hecarrom’s taste is really bad. But in fact, only a few people know that before the bronze realm, there is a black iron realm, which refers to a separate class of Tier 2 strength.

  In the words of the player, it is a probationary period from an apprentice to a full-time job.

  The first rank is an apprentice, the second rank is black iron, and the third rank is bronze.

  It's just the saying about black iron, and after the end of the chaotic era, it has never been used again. The sayings on the mainland now directly incorporate Tier 2 into the ranks of apprentices, but Tier 1 is a low-level apprentice. And Tier 2 is a senior apprentice, nothing more.

  Earl Hecarrom’s Dark Iron City and Dark Iron Fort, since it has used this "vulgar" name, the only thing that can be proved is that these two places must be relics from before the chaotic era. I just don't know what consideration Earl Hecarom made. The names of these two places have not been changed. Instead, it still uses the old-age title of "Black Iron".

When Sean, Emily, and Shawshank arrived at Dark Iron City, they were already on the third afternoon of the day they left from the town of Dunmar—in fact, they only spent a little more than two days during the entire journey. . However, the three of Sean did not stay in the city. After arriving, they hired three horses again, and then ran all the way towards the Black Iron Fort, and finally arrived outside the Black Iron Fort at midnight.

  This ancient fortress was built on the top of a mountain peak.

  This mountain is called Broken Peak Mountain. The reason is that there are no peaks on the whole mountain-when it is about three hundred meters above sea level. The peak of the whole mountain was cut off by the waist. An extremely flat mountain platform was exposed. The Black Iron Castle was built directly here, taking up the entire platform on the top of the mountain without leaving any gaps. Therefore, in addition to taking the front mountain road, you can only climb the cliff on the other side of the mountain.

  However, this steep cliff is not easy to climb, and Earl Hecarom has arranged a 24-hour sentry here for a long time. It is completely impossible to trick the sentry into successfully sneaking into the castle.

  Stand at the gate of the castle. Sean looked up at the castle.

  Not only there are concealed arrow holes and arrow buttresses, the erection of the arrow towers is also very rigorous: there are a total of eight arrow towers facing the main entrance. These eight arrow towers can cover the entire front of the mountain. Sean estimated that if he wanted to attack the castle, the front could only accommodate about 300 people at most. However, as long as one volley attack from the arrow hole, arrow pile and arrow tower on this scale, it would basically kill three people. Two out of the people.

  As for the siege ladder, it is obviously unlikely that it will be able to build the city wall. As for the Cloud Tower and the Siege Engine, Xiao En glanced back at the situation on the mountain road. It was obvious that it was impossible to transport it to the mountain, so these two siege tools were naturally unable to function.

  This is a fortress-type fortress that is really easy to defend and difficult to attack.

  If you want to take down this castle, even the most adept at siege can only use two methods honestly: either take your fate or besiege it.

   But with Sean's understanding of the meaning of the two words "black iron", it is obvious that it is not easy to be siege. He could even guess that most of the interior of the mountain must have been hollowed out. There are definitely a large amount of food, arrows and other armaments stored in it. In addition, there must be other secret escape channels for you. The castle owner ran away when he was in complete desperation.

  And when he went up the mountain, Xiao En also keenly noticed that the conditions of the mountain road were a little different, and there were very obvious artificial traces in many places. Xiao En guessed that these traces must be buried with alchemical explosives or things that can make the mountain collapse, and if necessary, they can also give the enemy a counterattack similar to the death of the same.

  This is not only a castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also a very dangerous mountain.

  The owner of the castle, Earl Hecarom, Anton Symes, quickly opened the middle door of the castle and walked out with a smile of joy.

  Shaun’s mouth raised slightly: Opening the middle door wide, this is a very high-level greeting etiquette.

  However, he knew very well that the earl named Anton Symmes was not here to greet them. He could really see him, and only Shawshank, the God of War knight he had failed to recruit for a long time.

There is also a church of God of War in Dark Iron City, but out of respect for the powerful Earl of Settlement, Dark Iron City did not arrange for the Knights of God of War to be stationed. The security of the entire city, including the security work of the God of War church, is the responsibility of Anton. . There is also the Church of the God of War in Luofu City, and there are also the Knights of the God of War, but the Knights of the God of War there are stronger than Shawshank. Count Anton has contacted a few times, but seeing the other person’s eyes above the top, he estimated that even if it was bought, it would be one. Trouble, so he gave up the plan to buy the other party and tried to win Shawshank instead.

  I have to say that Earl Hecarom is a person with very consistent ambition, strength, and mind.

  Unlike most nobles, they have nothing but ambition but no strength, or they have ambition and strength but their brains are not very good.

  "Welcome! Welcome!" The settler has not arrived yet. The hearty laughter had already come from far away first, and he ran quickly in three steps and two steps, completely showing a savvy and thirsty look.

  Anton Symmes, although Sean had heard some brief introductions by Shawshank on the way, he saw this person at this time. It was discovered that Shawshank's introduction was not enough to truly describe this person's situation.

  This is an earl with superior gold strength!

  Shaun’s pupils shrank slightly.

  He knew it for a long time. In the Northern Principality Federation, none of the nobles who can get the prefix of "strength" is a generation, but when he really saw the Earl of Hecarom, he was still a little surprised. It's no wonder that the other party dared to come out to greet him alone, without any guards around him. Obviously, the Lord Earl was still very confident in his own strength.

  "Your Excellency Shawshank, I have long been looking forward to one day you can come to my castle. I did not expect that my dream will finally come true today!" Anton walked quickly to Shawshank. Then he couldn't hide his joy. "When I received the report just now, I thought I had heard it wrong! Haha!"

  Sean glanced at the earl amusedly.

At this time, Shawshank’s position is half behind Emily and Sean. Such an obvious distinction of dignity and inferiority is impossible for this Earl Anton to see, but he seems to be real. I didn't see the same greet him, so it became that he stood side by side with Sean and Emily. This could have been explained as the other party was really thirsty for talents and didn't notice this subtle difference at all. But Sean discovered that the other party was talking to Shawshank. I have quickly swept over myself and Emily with the corner of my eye.

  This is an old fox.

   is still an old fox with good ambition and mind.

  Sean’s favorite is dealing with old foxes, especially those very cunning old foxes. Because they know more about the time and the situation than anyone else, the communication is very simple and rude—at least for Sean, it is very simple and rude. In the absence of absolute control, old foxes like this will not turn their faces at will, because they are very worried about showing some horse feet and causing unnecessary trouble.

   "My Lord Earl, I am not here today because I want to come." Shawshank said lightly, without giving any face to the powerful Earl.

   But An Duan had his face as usual, without any irritation at all-it was not how well he pretended to be, but that there was really no anger and disgraceful mood swings in his eyes. Obviously he was very clear about Shawshank's temperament.

  This is rare.

  But more, it is Sean who admires the Church of God of War.

  A high-ranking silver knight directly under the church would dare to be so rude to an earl who was powerful and still had a power prefix.

   "Then... Your Excellency Shawshank is..." the old fox asked knowingly.

   "I'm here with Lord Shaun and Lord Emily." Shawshank said sternly, "These two adults want to see you."

After hearing Shawshank's words, An Dun turned around suddenly, looked at Sean and Emily, and hurriedly said: "I'm so sorry to see how careless my earl was, I... "

Sean stretched out a hand to prevent Anton from continuing to perform, and then said indifferently, "Earl, this kind of disguise and acting can be saved, we don't want to waste each other's time... You take Let’s go to your study. Remember, it’s the most secretive kind. I hope we won’t hear the fifth person in our next conversation."

   Hearing Sean's unrelenting exposure of his acting, Anton Symes frowned slightly, and his aura suddenly changed.

   But for this, whether it was Sean, Emily, or Shawshank, they were not afraid of it. They just looked at this powerful earl calmly, waiting for his next answer. (To be continued~^~)
