Castle of Black Iron Chapter 1383 - Visiting Guo Hongyi

Chapter 1383: Visiting Guo Hongyi

Translator: WQL  Editor: Aleem

Xuanyuan Fortress was pretty boisterous tonight. Besides those on duty, the fortress' avenues were full of pa.s.sers-by. All knights and ordinary officers converged in the avenues. Some had a cool drink; some sang loudly. All the bars in the fortress had almost been full. The entire Xuanyuan Fortress seemed to hold a festival…

Since demon army invaded Taixia Country, the nerve in everyone's mind finally loosened today.

Learning to be intense and relaxed at the right moment was the law of yin and yang and could enable people to carry on longer on the battlefield. Even the most powerful knights couldn't be intense for 100 years constantly in the holy war. Zhang Tie didn't look down upon the boisterous and relaxed crowd on the streets because Zhang Tie also became relaxed inside now.

Since in Selnes Theater of Operations, Zhang Tie had been intense. Until today, a sea tortoise in a corner of Zhang Tie's heart finally rose to the surface of the sea and started to breathe fresh air over the sea.

Strictly, what counted most today was not the battle between heavenly knights, between tens of thousands of knights or Zhang Tie's heroic deed on the battlefield but the triumph of the human ground troops and air cavalries against demon corps. Such a triumph was of great importance. Without exaggeration, today's triumph was historical and a milestone.

On the ground, 200,000 iron-armored demons had been completely annihilated by endless mines and airs.h.i.+p troops before they touched the ground troops of Taixia Country.

In the air, less than 15,000 out of over 20,000 wing demons could finally survive back. By contrast, about 6,000 of 20,000 airplanes were hit down by wing demons. Perhaps, some people didn't feel it was something great. However, as for Zhang Tie who had joined the battle in Selnes Theater of Operations, this result had already ended the unrivaled history of wing demons in the former 2 holy wars. This result was definitely much better than that human corps faced in Selnes Theater of Operations. When in Selnes Theater of Operations, so many airs.h.i.+ps and human fighters were hit down and killed by wing demons… Additionally, wing demons had caused too many other losses to humans. Besides Zhang Tie himself, human corps could barely kill any wing demons in Selnes Theater of Operations. Wing demons almost became the nightmare of humans in the sky of Selnes Theater of Operations. If there were 20,000 air cavalries in Selnes Theater of Operations at that time, the history of Waii Subcontinent might have been rewritten and the nightmare caused by wing demons might have long been ended.

However, “if” didn't exist. Today's battle meant the start of a bright new future of humans.

The Age of Fiery Oil had arrived!

The age belonging to human air cavalries had arrived!

This was the signance of today's battle.

The number of wing demons couldn't match that of iron-armored demons and ox-headed demons. They were even fewer than spider demons. If shadow demons were not included, wing demons were the rarest species among demons. However, human air cavalries came from ordinary people. Although they required a paid training, as long as humans could last forever and could produce planes constantly and Fiery Oil, wing demons would not be a threat. Perhaps one day when wing demons' consumption overreached their birth rate, human air cavalries would gain an advantage in the air.

Maybe others didn't know that; however, Zhang Tie felt that he was the most intense person across Xuanyuan Fortress before today. This triumph also made the Military G.o.d of Taixia Country relaxed.

Therefore, Zhang Tie seized the opportunity to behave like a rascal in front of this sage-level knight and finally got his decree of pardon.

Because Guo Hongyi was put behind upon bars due to him, Zhang Tie couldn't just leave her to stay inside the jail. Therefore, Zhang Tie aimed to scoop her out of there even on the risk of stirring up Zuoqiu Mingyue.

There were so many people on the streets of Xuanyuan Fortress. Zhang Tie knew that he had been renowned across Xuanyuan Fortress. When he came here just now, he almost aroused a turmoil, causing so many people to block the way as onlookers. Therefore, Zhang Tie became a bit low-key on the streets this time. The moment he left the highest tower where Zuoqiu Mingyue was, Zhang Tie had put on his hood, covering half of his face. Additionally, he lowered his height by 3 cm using his body-changing immortal bloodline. In this way, very few people would be able to identify him.

The Law Enforcement Center of Xuanyuan Fortress was also a high tower. As this place was to regulate illegal knights coming from all provinces of Taixia Country, the Law Enforcement Center was especially imposing while 4 black iron knights were standing outside the tower.

After coming to Law Enforcement Center, Zhang Tie presented his ident.i.ty card; closely after that, he showed the decree of pardon which had been issued by Zuoqiu Mingyue. Then, he came to Guo Hongyi's cell under the leaders.h.i.+p of a knight-level officer.

Now that it was a jail, it would not feel comfortable even for holding knights. Otherwise, custody would be meaningless. This jail was beneath the high tower of Law Enforcement Center. The underground tunnel was clean, yet there was no suns.h.i.+ne. Besides, there was some restrictive equipment inside the jail, making it a bit repressive.

“This is the Guo Hongyi's cell!”

After pa.s.sing by many corridors and restrictive equipment, the officer guided Zhang Tie to the front of a small alloy door through the narrow tunnel under the gloomy lamplight of everlasting fluorescent lamps. After that, he took out a key and inserted it into the keyhole on the door. After rotating his key for two circles, he opened the door with a crack.

Zhang Tie saw Guo Hongyi instantly.

There was almost no light inside the cell. There was only a palm-sized window on the iron door. After opening the door, the lamplight of the everlasting fluorescent lamps in the corridor slightly lit up this cell along with Guo Hongyi's blurry red skirt.

Guo Hongyi was sitting on the iron bed with crossed legs. She opened her eyes when the door was opened.

Zhang Tie lowered his head and entered the cell. Watching Zhang Tie entering it, the officer of Law Enforcement Center left out of there in case of being an eyesore. Anyone with a bit EQ would not watch aside at this moment. Although it was a bit dim inside the cell, an onlooker was always disgusting…
