On April 6th, the 904th year of Black Iron Calendar…
Only after a few hours, the airship that set off Ewentra Archipelago had already passed by Oro Strait and arrived at Ice and Snow Wilderness…
If Zhang Tie came here alone, it would be much faster. As for Zhang Tie, a round trip of thousands of miles was similar to commoners who went to the market to buy vegetables by bus. However, as he was followed by some people, he could only take an airship.
The airboat was borrowed from Golden Roc Bank. The two customized airboats that Gold and Power Law promised him had not arrived at Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory yet.
As one of the hubs between the Western Continent and Eastern Continent in trade and personnel exchanges, Sacred Iceland Kingdom’s geographical location was growing increasingly important and special over these years. Therefore, Golden Roc Bank had increased their investment in Sacred Iceland Kingdom; especially that Golden Roc Bank founded a inter-continental secondary banking clearance center in Saint Petersburg. Previously, airboat could be barely seen in Ice and Snow Wilderness and Ewentra Archipelago; however, now airboat had become a symbol of the existence of Golden Roc Bank in Sacred Iceland Kingdom and an important traffic tool provided by Golden Roc Bank for some VIPs to travel between Eastern Continent and Western Continent.
The airboat that old bear Dally and Elder Gulas took to Taixia Country was also provided by Golden Roc Bank.
Zhang Tie came to Saint Petersburg accompanied by Ms. Olina, Bishop Maxim, Hagus the clan head of sea bear tribe and Alexander the baby of Ms. Olina and Zhang Tie.
Alexander was only 4 years old. Although Ms. Olina hadn’t told anyone about the father of the baby, the father of Alexander was not a secret among the management of Sacred Iceland Kingdom.
When Ms. Olina intrigued against the other members of the Ewentra Autonomous Parliament on Arkray Island, Alexander was left in Saint Herner Island by her. As the encampment of Northwind Fleet, Saint Herner Island was close to Ice and Snow Wilderness. Additionally, Ms. Olina was the ruler of the island; therefore, Saint Herner Island could serve as the nest of Seablue Business Group and Ms. Olina.
Compared to Iron-Dragon Airboat that Zhang Tie had returned to Taiyi Fantasy Sect, this airboat that they borrowed from Golden Roc Bank was not large in size; neither was it more magnificent than Iron-Dragon Airboat. This airboat was only 100 m in length in the shape of the shuttle. However, such an airboat was unique in Sacred Iceland Kingdom.
Of course, it was available for some influential figures and their followers in Sacred Iceland Kingdom.
On March 5th, the latest news about the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire was finally received and confirmed by Sacred Iceland Kingdom through different channels——Before arriving at Ewentra Archipelago, the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire had already become completely defeated. The remaining ships of the fleet had turned around and returned to Sukbi Sea Gulf where they anchored in for replenishment last time as they had sent a distress signal to Sacred Light Empire.
This disaster was caused by a mysterious and powerful knight that they met on the sea being over 6,000 miles away from Ewentra Archipelago. That mysterious and powerful knight ended the future of the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire only by one blow.
With the blow of the mysterious and powerful knight, the 2 throne pastors and the 5 chief pastors were wiped out in a split second; at the same time, the 20-ton flagship of the expeditionary fleet was smashed and sent to the bottom of the ocean. Only 1 of the 8 battleships could be available after maintenance. Furthermore, half of the supply ships and troopships were damaged.
This news deeply shocked both Sacred Light Empire and Sacred Iceland Kingdom.
After hearing this news, everybody thought that it was caused by a heavenly knight on the back of Sacred Iceland Kingdom. Additionally, countrymen in Sacred Iceland Kingdom and followers of Ancient God Church were driven mad; some onlookers were delighted in the misfortune of Sacred Light Empire. At the same time, those chief pastors in the eastern parish of Sacred Light Empire felt flurried as if they had lost their parents. All the chief pastors over there quivered all over as they realized that they had met a powerful enemy this time.
On the second day since this news reached Sacred Iceland Kingdom, the dominoes effect of this news started to take effect. Zhang Tie then determined to leave for Saint Petersburg in Ice and Snow Wilderness.
…
As it was Alexander’s first time to take airboat, he kept crying. Zhang Tie then cradled Alexander and played a game with him on a lounge in an independent berth cabin. Alexander gradually became sleepy as he fell asleep while lying on Zhang Tie’s belly. Zhang Tie then kept his eyes closed in such a gesture.
After a while…
“His Majesty, we’ve arrived at the supper palace of Saint Petersburg…” Ms. Olina said.
Zhang Tie opened his eyes as he saw Bishop Maxim, Hags and Ms. Olina standing in front of him. The three people were all looking at him in a bizarre expression.
It was the 3 people’s first time to see such a paternal love; especially among Slavs who favored male chauvinism. Hags revealed an unimaginable look; Bishop Maxim meditated about the profound meaning behind Zhang Tie’s paternal love; Ms. Olina’s eye light had turned completely tender while watching the father and the son falling asleep. Just now, she didn’t even want to open her mouth; instead, she wanted to keep this scene forever.
“Hush” Zhang Tie made a hand gesture silently as he slightly drew his finger out of Alexander’s palm. After that, he picked up Alexander. At the sight of this scene, the two professional babysitters on the side of Ms. Olina hurriedly moved forward and took over Alexander from his hand deftly before moving to one side.
Not until Alexander was taken away did Zhang Tie open his mouth, “Let’s go. Don’t let Pontiff Sarlin wait too long outside…”
“Wait a moment…” Ms. Olina stopped Zhang Tie as she walked forward to help him smoothe his clothes. After that, she stood behind Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie revealed a smile towards Ms. Olina before walking towards the hatch door of the airboat.
The airboat parked on the square in the front palace of the Summer Palace. When Zhang Tie approached the hatch door, he had seen those familiar faces——Pontiff Sarlin, Elder Gulas and Elder Toles of huge bear tribe; Elder Turing of Spencer Clan of iron bear tribe, Dally of wild bear tribe and all the knight elders of fire bear tribe, mountain bear tribe, black bear tribe and mutated bear tribe. Plus Hags behind Zhang Tie, all the members of the Cardinal Elders Committee of Sacred Iceland Kingdom were at present.
Besides, O’Laura the princess of Sacred Iceland Kingdom, Sabrina the sweet dew goddess of Ancient God Church and 6 women of Spencer clan such as Mattia and Ballier were all at present.
All the women were well dressed up and contended in beauty and fascination. After such a few years, Ballier who was most innocent among the 6 women of Spencer Clan at the beginning looked faintly like enchanting, young mature women.
Each of the 8 women was followed by a little boy who was almost as old as Alexander.
Behind them were 5,000 fighters of Thor’s Hammer in helmets and armors tidily who were waiting for his inspection.
The moment Zhang Tie appeared at the hatch door of the airboat, all the eyes focused on him at once. Watching this man who could appear in the critical moment of Sacred Iceland Kingdom once again, many people became thrilled. O’Laura held back her tears. All the 8 little boys were looking up at this man walking out of the airboat with black eyes. Before coming here, they had been instructed what to call this man and how to show their respect to his man. Their moms told them this man was their father, the very hero who saved Sacred Iceland Kingdom once again.
At the sight of this scene, Zhang Tie sighed with emotion. Suddenly, he ran his spiritual energy as he gave out a brilliant golden light, which then swept over the entire Summer Palace like an invisible, impact wave. Everybody in Saint Petersburg and Summer Palace was bathing in the strength and tranquility brought by this golden light.
——The supreme protection of the aiding strength!
With the effect of the supreme protection, all the fighters above LV 6 and knights were covered with beautiful halos. As a result, the entire palace of Summer Palace looked dreamlike.
Zhang Tie declared his arrival in this manner.
All the 5,000 fighters of Thor’s Hammer released their battle qi totems as they roared at the same time, “Wula…wula…wula…”, which shocked the entire Summer Palace.
“Welcome back, His Majesty!” All the elders headed by Pontiff Sharlin bowed towards Zhang Tie together with his women.
Zhang Tie took in a deep breath as he got off the airboat and came to the front of O’Laura. Watching her beautiful face, he lightly wiped off one drop of tear that rolled down her face.
O’Laura didn’t speak. She just drew a little boy as old as Alexander to her front.
“Welcome back, father…”
The little boy who was dressed like a crown prince knelt down in front of Zhang Tie by one knee as he looked up and called Zhang Tie in child’s tone out of curiosity.
“I hope he could be as brave as you when he grows up. Therefore, I call him Andre…” O’Laura said.
Zhang Tie stroked the little boy’s head as he nodded. After that, he walked towards Sabrina.
Sabrina spoke to Zhang Tie with a smile, “He’s Matvey, your gift to me…”
In the language of Slavs, Matvey meant God’s gift.
“Welcome back, father…” The little boy who was dressed like a prince knelt down in front of Zhang Tie by one knee.
Later on, all the 6 little boys on the side of the 6 women of Spencer Clan greeted Zhang Tie one after another.
Mattia’s kid was called Anatoli, which meant protector!
Ballier’s kid was called Victor, which meant winner!
Katerina’s kid was called Igor, which meant the beloved son of the God of Wealth.
Diana’s kid was called Orego, which meant the sacred.
Eva’s kid was called Nigolas, which meant great victory.
Sally’s kid was called Lev, which meant lion.
