Castle of Black Iron Chapter 1193

Chapter 1194 - The Start of Chaos

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Time always flew at home; especially after the new year’s festival. It soon came to late lunar January unconsciously. Zhang Tie had already stayed at home for almost 1 month.

Over the past month, besides staying with his family members, Zhang Tie was also paying attention to the situation in Ice and Snow Wilderness.

It was evidently not a good idea for Sacred Light Empire to dispatch an expedition to Ice and Snow Wilderness in winter. Because the two harbors that the expeditionary fleet prepared to dock at for replenishment had been frozen in winter. Therefore, the expeditionary fleet would face a great problem in replenishment. Ice and Snow Wilderness was in the northernmost part of Waii Subcontinent. The closer it was to the vast unmanned ice land, the slower the fleet would move facing the northwest wind and the surging waves, not to mention the icebergs that might flow downwards from the north. In the evening, a battleship might be easily severely damaged or capsized by an iceberg that floated on the ocean.

The merchant ships and businessmen that traversed between Sacred Iceland Kingdom and Western Continent were keeping a close watch on the movements of Sacred Light Empire. After spending a lot of money, the intelligence network of Sacred Iceland Kingdom started to run at a high speed on the Western Continent. Intelligence about the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire would gather in Saint Peterburg almost every day.

After analyzing the intelligence from all aspects, Pontiff Sarlin speculated that the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire might leave their military base on this mid-February or early March; at most late March.

Therefore, Zhang Tie became reassured. After accomplishing his rotating chakra ceremony, he had enough time to deal with the crisis facing Ice and Snow Wilderness.

Zhang Tie was not considering how to defeat the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire; he was considering how to make Sacred Light Empire afraid so that those d**chebags would not dare cast their greedy eyes on Sacred Iceland Kingdom anymore and would feel vexed and lack in self-confidence the moment they heard the name of Sacred Iceland Kingdom.

If not deal with this crisis well, given the overall national strength of Sacred Light Empire, even if they were defeated once, they would attack the Sacred Iceland Kingdom for the 2nd time even the 3rd time. If so, Sacred Iceland Kingdom would have endless troubles.

Gulas and Dali had returned to Ice and Snow Wilderness safe and sound before the new year. They failed to find their allies and reliances. Because major clans in Taixia Country were too picky. They would not invest in the barren land of Ice and Snow Wilderness at all, not to mention align with that small country. If not in the Treasures Meeting, Gulas and Dali might not even catch the attention of any major clan in Taixia Country at all. The two people indeed sold some vials of the source of berserk energy in the Treasures Meeting; as for many purchasers, the so-called source of berserk energy from Ice and Snow Wilderness was just a good medicament that could make people go berserk and sustain that state for a longer time. It could be used for the rest of their lives. However, it was not easy to activate the effect of this medicament either. Not each fighter could activate its effect. Low-level fighters might have a demand for a source of berserk energy; however, after promoting to knights, this medicament would become meaningless for them. In Treasures Meeting, those which were meaningless to knights could barely catch people’s attention.

Gulas and Dali didn’t find a powerful alley for Sacred Iceland Kingdom; however, they brought back a news about the large-scale riot in Xuanyuan Hill and the rest of Taixia Country.

The finance minister of Taixia Country was a lackey of Three-eye Association 1 . A catastrophe of bloody figures broke out in Taixia Country as a whole. This news aroused a great shock across Sacred Iceland Kingdom, not to mention the Western Continent and other subcontinents. Even Pontiff Sarlin asked Zhang Tie about the current situation facing Taixia Country through remote-sensing crystal out of concern.

As for people from other continents and subcontinents, Taixia Country was very unrivaled. People from all the other continents and subcontinents longed for, jealous about and hated for the prosperity and power of Taixia Country. However, undoubtedly, Taixia Country and Hua people were the pillars and the hope of all humans in the war between humans and demons. Any turmoil in Taixia Country would cause a mighty uproar in other continents and subcontinents.

Since the riot broke out in Xuanyuan Hill on November 15th last year, those who firstly sensed fear were not Hua people in Taixia Country, but top-class figures in continents and subcontinents outside Taixia Country. These people was clear that they would never survive this holy war if Taixia Country collapsed due to civil strife. This holy was like a terrifying storm. Taixia Country was the largest human battleship in this tempest. If the largest human battleship would capsize and sink, those sampans would definitely be shattered by the huge waves. If Taixia failed to resist demons, all humans would enter the darkest days.

“How’s Taixia Country doing now?”

Zhang Tie really didn’t know how to answer Elder Sarlin.

Zhang Tie’s personal situation was very good. He had promoted to an earth knight and had been found innocent. Additionally, he became famous across Taixia Country. Zhang family’s power also expanded constantly. Besides all-purpose medicament, Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory would soon produce revolutionary high-power alcohol; additionally, Zhang Tie had returned home. He stayed with his family members and enjoyed playing with his sons and daughters every day. As a result, his foundation in Taixia Country was growing increasingly consolidated; he had more and more friends in Taixia Country. He had even established relationships with Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and Heavens Fortune Sect. However, the culprit who screwed him had been killed by Zhang Tie himself; he even made a fortune. The Gobbling Party were having an intense conflict with the Heavens Reaching Church. It could be said that Zhang Tie’s situation was unprecedentedly good. He had not lived such a leisure and comfortable life before. Actually, Zhang Tie had officially reached a wholly new peak in his life.

Zhang Tie welcomed his new peak moments in his life; however, the coldness of the 3rd holy war raided the entire Taixia Country in only a few months.

When it came to winter, the bloody figures across Taixia Country; especially those in northern regions temporarily slowed down their attacking frequencies. The bloody figures became more disperse, causing increasing greater destructions in wider areas.

In December, the catastrophe of bloody figures had just covered over 60 provinces; however, in the next January, bloody figures had been discovered across Taixia Country, except for some wild provinces and Xuanyuan Hill. The catastrophe of bloody figures was spreading over the entire country. Before January 1st, the 904th year of Black Iron Calendar, the catastrophe of bloody figures which had broken out for less than 2 months had caused a casualty of over 0.37 billion people. This figure was increasing every day. There were totally over 10 million bloody figures across Taixia Country. After being encircled and annihilated for over 1 month, this figure was constantly reducing; however, the rest alive bloody figures were still killing people and causing panic across the country in each second.

Even Youzhou province was involved in such a turmoil.

On January 3rd, when Zhang Tie was immersing in the festive atmosphere of the new year, some teams of bloody figures had poured into Yangui Mountain Range from Tongzhou Province. They might have already sneaked into Youzhou Province.

After entering Yangui Mountain Range and carrying out a bloodbath in two small mountain villages, these bloody figures had completely disappeared. When a hunter living in the mountain discovered the abnormal phenomenon in the two small mountain villages, he hurriedly came to report it to the officials.

Some teams of bloody figures with unidentified population might have penetrated through Yangui Mountain Range and entered Youzhou Province. Therefore, Youzhou Province became vigilant as a whole; especially the garrisons in some cities near Yangui Mountain Range which had been mobilized. The moment Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory received the news, they had cordoned off the entire region.

Not until Zhang Tie received the news from Huaiyuan Palace did he know it at home.

Of course, during the same period, Zhang Tie received a “good news” about bloody figures——The battle fortress prison that Zhang Tie had people build near the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect to lock up bloody figures had been officially assembled.

Zhang Tie named this prison for bloody figures as Demon Suppression Battlefortress. The entire fortress could contain 200,000 bloody figures. It was a large-scale battlefortress construction business group which was responsible for undertaking similar business in Yanzhou Province of Taixia Country. After Zhang Yang expressed his demand and paid off 70% of the engineering fund, this business group completed the construction of Demon Suppression Battlefortress in the shortest period.

Zhang Tie had not visited the Demon Suppression Battlefortress yet. However, it was said that it was even a bit larger than the former crystal battlefortress. After Demon Suppression Battlefortress was completed, the first batch of 1287 bloody figures that Zhang Tie and Jinwu Business Group had purchased had been locked into the Demon Suppression Battlefortress. Jinwu Guards were responsible for guarding them.

When the catastrophe of bloody figures spread over Taixia Country, the loyal backbones of Heavens Reaching Church who had “produced” these bloody figures disappeared in the latest 2 months. Besides some trivial figures, very few famous knight-level powerhouses of Heavens Reaching Church being wanted by the Supreme Court of Taixia Country could be discovered. Those d**chebags just disappeared out of the void, causing people to be restless.
