All around the castle was the flat black surface ground that resembled a public square, and what was more astonishing to people was that it was connected entirely with the walls. Looking from afar, it looked like a black ferocious beast, hibernating silently on the barren land filled with black gravel.
Shi Sen’s faced was filled with shock, he stopped in his tracks and squinted his eyes.
The 120m high castle walls, even from afar, he could feel the majestic aura coming from them. The scale of the castle walls, should not appear in a small place like the Shang System, only the flourishing strategic towns had the ability to house such majestic walls. The strange hexagon with its six sharp spires that were like swords pointing straight towards the sky, amplified the sharpness of the walls.
Shi Sen knew the six spires were absolutely not an ornament, with his abundant experience in battle, his power of observation was acute, he could feel a faintly discernible energy converged at the spires.
The Spires’ purpose should be used to attack!
He suddenly believed Wang Zhun Xian slightly, the group of people that pushed back the Blue Tide. With such a castle,along with a set of battle abled crew, defeating the Blue Tide was more probable.
Shi Sen recovered from his shock, with an indifferent smile, he said to Wang Zhun Xian: “Commander Wang did not tell me that there was a castle here.”
Wang Zhun Xian could hear the unhappiness and coldness in Shi Sen’s tone, he laughed bitterly: “To be honest, this place was still a barren land a few days ago.”
Shi Yong was also completely stunned, previously the masters asked for stronghold blueprints, but no one would have thought of what would be the result of that. He thought they only wanted to build a small stronghold here.
And it was just a matter of days……
Shi Sen stared at Wang Zhun Xian’s face, he noticed the expressions that could definitely not be faked, and also noticed that the other members of the Precious Bright Village Regiment were also equally shocked, he believed them.
If that was the case, the newcomers did not come from small backgrounds.
And to spare no effort to build just a majestic castle in such a secluded place, there was definitely a reason! Could this place have something beneficial that others did not know of?
A few thoughts flashed past his mind. Shi Sen looked pensive, who knows, maybe I will get rich this time.
Thinking about that, his eyes flashed a trace of greed.
His personal strength was outstanding and had excessive military achievements, but without a family backing and powerful backer, he had waited so long but never got a promotion, and until now he never had his own land. If he could fish in a large sum of money and get things flowing, he could possible go up another level.
Once this thought surfaced, he could not get rid of it.
He licked his lips as his squinted eyes flashed a bright light aura. He was usually vicious and merciless and did not dread killing people. You come from a huge backing? So What? As long as I leave no one alive, who can do anything to me? At most I will push the responsibility to bandits and thieves, profiting is still the most important! Furthermore the distance of the Savage System to Vast Star System was too far.
It was so far that Shi Sen did not even care.
With regards to secrets, as long as the people landed in his hands, he had his own methods to get them to speak.
Even so, the defense of black castle, was truly too lax, streams of people entered and leave at will, and there were no one on the castle walls. They were too negligent, it did not even have the most basic defense.
Shi Sen had 50 bodyguards with him, although it was not a huge number, but each of them were strong. The key was that they had followed him for many years, and were adept at battle formations with good rapport.
One defenseless castle, how could they not take it down?
He gently tapped the armor on his body with his scabbard. The bodyguards around him saw it, and immediately understood. This was their secret signal, it indicated for them to take action immediately, and they immediately adjusted their positions quietly.
Shi Sen smiled and said to Wang Zhun Xian: “I wonder who are they familiar with?”
Wang Zhun Xian said without a doubt: “Commander Shi Yong in my team.”
“So it will still be one of the same family.” Shi Sen’s smile became even more warm: “Can Commander Shi lead the way please.”
Shi Yong had his doubts, they had already reached, why would he need to lead the way? But he did not bother voicing out and nodded: “Okay!”
Shi Yong was the vanguard as the party of people flew towards the black castle.
When the villagers below saw that it was Shi Yong at the front, and also saw Wang Zhun Xian in the group, they waved and sent their greetings.
When Shi Sen heard the villagers below discussing that an important person had come to find Master Meng Nan, a smile surfaced on his face. There was contempt in his heart, the people were truly too lax.
As long as they were close, he had the confidence that the opponent would not have time to react, and he could take down the black castle easily.
As expected from someone born from Savage System, if they were really born from those aristocratic families, there would definitely be elite fighters. Aristocratic families were hard on rules and regulations, and would never make such silly mistakes.
He raised the blade in his hand, the edge waving side to side slightly, it was the hidden signal to be prepared to attack.
He stared intently at the black castle. He did not even bother looking at the villagers below.
“It’s been a few days and it’s still not complete! Crazy Tang and Poker Face, what are they doing inside, being so secretive!” Ling Xu mumbled to himself, while doing a different form of training with his eyes closed. He grabbed a handful of small stones, seemingly stuck onto his hand, rolling about endlessly, like a lump of viscous liquid, sticking on Ling Xu’s palm and would not fall off.
This was to temper the sensitivity of his hands, the feelings of the palm, he needed to grasp the moment at the point of contact, with the fluctuations from the feeling coming from his hand, he had to be able to judge the strength, direction and so on. In the past, Ling Xu’s spear technique greatly relied on true power, but since he had chosen the dao path of Zero Energy Body, that method had lost its effectiveness, on the contrary, he had to return back to basics.
The palms were the most important part of interacting with the spear, so its capabilities are extremely important.
It was not only him, the rest were doing the same exercise to temper themselves, however, Jing Hao was also playing with the stones, while Crane was going around everybody awkwardly, jumping around. The black rocks on the barren land were all different in sizes with irregular shapes, he closed off his intuition and shut his eyes, the moment he touched a stone, he would quickly make a judgement through the feeling passed from beneath his feet.
“The proposal Sai Lei came up with this time is said to be very powerful. It is based on mechanical techniques, and along with the consideration of a Treasure City, she created a completely new type of stronghold. Uncle Bing was very interested, and Crazy Tang was pulled to do the tough work.”
Crane was panting, the training he was doing, was very tough, it consumed a lot of physical strength. In his over 10 years of life in training, he had been used to utilizing true power, but today he wanted to regain the instincts of the body, and this to him, was a restart button.
This weird training method, was created by Crazy Tang.
“If you love to torment yourself over and over again, go do it in a training room or fighting grounds, you’ll be doing it slightly better than you’re good to go.” Ling Xu did not mind his actions, but this slight distraction caused the little rocks in his hand to separate and drop all over.
Disturbed by this, the feelings in Crane’s feet immediately deviated, and he fell flat on the ground.
“There’s killing intent.” Jing Hao suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the sky.
The two of them were startled, and immediately opened their eyes.
“Isn’t that Shi Yong?” Ling Xu asked with curiosity: “Who are those beside him? Is that the whatever village regiment?”
Crane crawled up from the ground, he swiped the dust off his body, and looked at the sky, he had a strange feeling: “No, they’re not weak, let’s go and ask them.”
“They are speeding up!” Ling Xu raised his eyebrows and leaped up.
“What if they are not friendlies?” Crane’s face darkened: “Take a guess where they’re from.”
Where they’re from? Ling Xu frowned, and started thinking deeply, but when he realized Jing Hao who was beside him had already disappeared, he immediately became annoyed, he stomped angrily: “He went ahead! Little Crane, you’re annoying!”
“Oh, I did it on purpose.” Crane had an indifferent expression.
Ling Xu was enraged: “Damn you, come, let us fight! I have endured with you for so long……”
His voice stopped abruptly, he turned and raised his head, looking at the sky in disbelief.
“Army!” Crane’s expression changed, his figure suddenly vanished.
**************************
Wang Zhun Xian suddenly realized that Shi Sen, who was beside him, had suddenly increased his speed, and almost at the same time, his bodyguards, had also accelerated! In the blink of an eye, they had traveled a large distance.
Wang Zhun Xians expression changed, although he was only a commander of the village regiment, but he was able to recognize what they were doing, it was…… an assault!
Shi Sen wanted to attack the black castle!
This judgement flashed across his mind like lightning, his face turned ashen. He immediately understood, why Shi Sen made Shi Yong walk in front, he wanted to use Shi Yong to confuse his enemy.
With the short burst of speed, Shi Sen and his men had completed assembling their formation.
The wind whistled past their ears, the black castle quickly became close, he could clearly see the shock and fear on the villagers faces below, they were truly a herd of sheep ready to be slaughtered and harvested!
Just like the black castle.
Shi Sen was extremely excited, the blood in his body was boiling and pumping hard, his fighting intent had reached its limits, he unsheathed his long blade, and held it high in the air!
The bodyguards beside him had unsheathed their long blades at the same time, releasing the wolf like howls!
Suddenly, a sword aura, flew towards them from below.
The sword aura was not dazzling, but Shi Sen still squinted, his heart turned cold. He was able to sense Sword Law infused in the sword attack, and from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the ordinary looking swordsman, he never expected the Savage System people to also have such a powerful swordsman!
Shi Sen did not have confidence to beat the opponent in a one against one battle, but now, he had already completed the group formation and had the acceleration. The might of the assault arising from the entire team had reached its apex, the entire team’s energy integrating as a whole, against one swordsman, Shi Sen could not help but smile.
Overestimating yourself!
So what if you have Law? Although that law of the sword aura is pure, but it isn’t strong!
Simultaneous Blade Slash!
The energy between the sky and ground suddenly seemed to congeal, but in the next second, the energy actually burst and exploded with a bang.
The energy of the entire team, surged forth like an angry wave, 51 blades, surged forth a sea of fierce energy as all of it charged crazily towards Shi Sen.
The dazzling blade auras caused the entire place to turn white.
Jing Hao’s sword aura broke like brittle glass, shattering into powder. At the place where Jing Hao’s sword aura was broken into pieces, the air seemed to ripple out like a water surface, one after another, the weak ripples undulated, distorting the blade auras that were was dazzling as the sun.
Blub!
A light sound came out, the blade aura swayed as it passed through the ripple, flying straight towards Jing Hao!
Crane and Ling Xu’s expression changed, their hearts were panicking, the two appeared beside Jing Hao at almost the same time, and unleashed their moves in unison.
A crafty look flashed across Shi Sen’s eyes, the blade aura that was burning fiercely like a blazing sun, exploded without any warning!
The three of them were dazzled, the blade auras broke into threads, the countless fine threads was just like a big web, enveloping the three of them inside.
Shi Sen’s glance retracted from the threads of blades that trapped the three guys, his gaze landed on the wide open black castle, his eyes blazing with excitement, that was his goal!
Although the three of them were powerful, but entangling with them would only hinder his opportunity.
“Kill!”
The black castle was now like a beautiful young lady with her arms wide opened, all of their eyes immediately became red-hot.
But right at that moment, an unforeseen event suddenly occurred.
