Chapter 20: The Difficulty of Black Iron
Looking at the injury on the arm, there is no big problem after the bleeding stops, just wait for the stitches to heal slowly, but it may leave a scar afterwards, which will affect the appearance.
In the face of life preservation and aesthetics, the former will be considered at present, and the scar does not matter.
The pain in his ribs also decreased a lot, Luo Ning got up and walked to the door, put the black cloak on his body, and in view of what happened last night, he first went to the window and opened a gap to look at the direction of the door.
The same black cloak as himself, he can't see his face clearly, but he can confirm that he is a human.
Relieved, I walked to the door and opened the door to look at the people coming to the door, the weather-beaten facial wrinkles were crisscrossed, there was a lot of redness in the cheekbones, and the age was about fifty or so from the appearance, but it should actually be younger, after all, the harsh conditions will make people older than they actually are.
"Austin, why did it take so long to open the door, I thought you weren't there."
The man at the door tightened the black cloak a little, complained, and looked the young man up and down.
"Don't tell me you're just up, you're a diligent man, hurry up and pack up and follow me to General Darius."
The snake embroidery on the black cloak was extremely eye-catching, and Luo Ning glanced down at the viper on his black cloak and understood that the person in front of him was a colleague of the Order Church.
At this moment, there are a lot of pedestrians coming and going on the street, wearing blue-black cast iron armor, equipped with spears, direct-looking steel swords and other weapons, which should be the Black Iron Army.
"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up, General Darius's temper is not very good, don't let him wait for a long time."
"Wait a minute"
Luo Ning, who came back to his senses, smiled and closed the door, standing at the door and thinking for a while.
It seems that the Black Iron Army and the Order Church should have some kind of close alliance relationship, so he doesn't have to take refuge like everyone else every time.
Before leaving, you have to change into appropriate clothes, and you can't always wear a black cloak naked.
Quickly pushing open the bedroom door, the children were still asleep, and it looked like the rats from last night had upset them for half the night, causing sleep deprivation.
I tiptoed to my wardrobe and picked out some warm clothes to put on, and the pain in my ribs made dressing quite laborious.
When I got dressed and was about to go out, I heard a childish voice from the bed.
"Teacher, have the rats driven away?"
Luo Ning looked back at Dong Nina, who had already woken up, and reached out to stroke her messy head.
"The rats have been driven away, you can get dressed and be in the house later, don't go out, I'll come back and make you breakfast later."
When it comes to making breakfast, the problem of lack of ingredients is in front of us, and in any case, we must first meet the Black Iron Army General Darius and come back to solve it.
Out of the door, Ronin was slightly apologetic.
"Sorry, I slept late last night, where is General Darius?"
The two walked side by side, and the members of the Black Iron Army would stand aside respectfully when they saw the two of them, waiting for the two to go first, it seemed that the people of the Order Church had a high status in front of the Black Iron Army.
"Austin, there has been a little change in the Black Iron Army in the past few days, some soldiers will go crazy in the middle of the night, and it happened during the march last night, which caused many soldiers to be injured, and General Darius is very annoyed."
Soldiers go berserk in the middle of the night......
Ronin had the matter of Rensad in his mind, and there might be a little connection between the two.
"There is news from the church headquarters, because many members of you and the contents of the stone tablet in Rensad have begun to show symptoms of illness, similar to these soldiers, I suspect that there is a certain connection between the two, so I came to you, after all, you have studied the content of the tablet first, you should know something, and you can come up with a practical solution to the problems that occur in the Black Iron Army."
The people who came chattered and told the situation sounded like they were complaining.
It seems that this person has the same inference as himself, and Luo Ning is even more sure of his thoughts.
"By the way, the Lensad man, there's no one in his house."
The visitor suddenly asked.
If you tell the truth, the other party will definitely think that he and Rensad have studied the slate together, just like the first person from the Church of Order, but now there is no disease because a solution has been found.
Luo Ning thought for a moment and made up an excuse at random.
He ...... A few days ago, I said that there was something that needed to be left for a while, and I don't know if I didn't ask carefully. ”
"If he had focused on his faith, he wouldn't have reached the age of forty-five, and he would still be just an ordinary member of the church like you, a hairy boy."
There was a bit of anger in the tone of the visitor, and he turned to the building on the side.
"Here we are, here it is, let's go inside."
Luo Ning looked at this building and sighed in his heart, it was the church where he fought last night, and it was also the classroom for the children, and it was not expected that the Black Iron Army should have found out about the battle last night, after all, the traces and corpses left behind had not been disposed of, fortunately, Rensad was no longer human, and he couldn't tell the difference.
In case the other party asks about the matter here, he can only say that he doesn't know anything about it, and he makes up his mind to follow into the church.
Several of the children's desks were put together as temporary desks, and in front of them sat a stout man in black cast-iron armor, with a red complexion, typical of plateau red, flanked by four Black Iron Army soldiers.
To his surprise, however, the fallen chandelier remained in place, but Rensad's body was gone, and not even the slightest blood stain could be seen, and if it weren't for the chandelier, he would almost have thought that last night was just a dream.
"General Darius, this is my colleague Ronin Austin."
The Church of Order colleague pressed his right hand to his brow and bent slightly towards the man.
This should be the special etiquette of the Church of Order, and Ronin bowed to Darius in the same way as his colleagues.
Darius got up, raised his right hand and pressed it on his left chest, bent down in return, and walked over to signal to go out.
"I think De Jong has told you about what happened, we have lost a lot of manpower in the past few days because of this accident, and we have to solve it as soon as possible."
De Jong refers to his colleagues in the Church of Order.
The general described it more than De Jong, and Ronin followed him for a long time, and when he reached a distance of about a hundred meters outside the town, he saw three carriages carrying large iron cages, guarded by several soldiers.
A black iron cage can hold about five people, which is not a small space, Darius pointed to the cage.
"We're in cages for diseased soldiers, look at them, be careful, they're quite dangerous."
Luo Ning looked at the two black iron cages and walked closer, the soldiers sitting in the black iron cages lowered their heads, their heads were scattered, they couldn't see their faces clearly, the black iron armor on their bodies was stained with blood, they were whispering, and they couldn't hear what they were saying.
After a moment's hesitation, he moved a little closer.
Suddenly, the soldiers in the cage were like wild beasts, clutching the cold fence of the black iron cage and screaming wildly.
Luo Ning subconsciously took a few steps back.
At this time, he was finally able to see the soldier's face clearly, his head was completely deformed, his face could no longer be clearly distinguished, his arms were chapped with skin, his skin was blue, and he was completely a monster.
There are a total of eight people in the two cages, which is indeed very similar to Renzade, could it be that random events happened to these soldiers, but they didn't study them, which led to falling into a curse and becoming cursed?
Gotta find a way to verify it, he turned around.
"General Darius, if you can kill one, I'll have to check it carefully......"
Before the words fell, Darius had already signaled several soldiers guarding to go up, and the spear in his hand stabbed wildly, the spear reached three meters, and the space in the cage was limited, so there was no possibility of dodging at all.
Soon after, all four monsters in a cage were stabbed into pulp and collapsed in a pool of foul-smelling sticky blood.
(It's really decisive, it's a pity not to be the protagonist...... )
"It's a good way to deal with monsters."
Luo Ning sighed after witnessing everything, and then walked up to look at the pool of blood.
After a long time, there were no primordial fate cards in the pool ...... blood, and it stands to reason that the cursed would have primordial fate.
I checked it again, but I still didn't find it, so aren't these people cursed?
When I looked up, my eyes fell on the third cage, the third cage was a little strange, there was only one woman in prison, and she was also wearing a shawl with her head down, and she didn't go crazy like the soldiers in the other two cages, I don't know if it was because of the cold or because of the fear and shivering.
"This is our trophy, found in a town on the way here, and she has no problem."
Behind him came Darius's voice.
Luo Ning smiled bitterly, these guys are not wronged at all to be called robbers, and it seems that the church of order is not much better with robbers.
When I came back to my senses, I heard the girl's low voice.
"Help me ......"
