"Oh, I see." Ryan nodded slowly.

Old Bill saw Ryan's appearance like this, thinking that he had persuaded him, so he continued to add: "Actually, this matter has long been known, Young Master Toby has long taken a fancy to Miss Adra, and he is ready to marry Miss Vivien to Young Master Vera of the Saranal family, and then he can marry Miss Adela justifiably." As for this Miss Adra, there are really a lot of people who pursue her, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and the average three or five adult men are not her opponents at all......"

Ryan didn't listen much to Old Bill's constant description of that Adra, in his opinion, this is just a young lady with a slight advantage in family background, but it's a pity that being a person is too bad, even if your own family is powerful, it is not earned by yourself.

If it is really compared to these potential strengths, Faras is probably one of the most powerful women behind this continent, her teacher is the ** teacher Victor, and her father is the Imperial Minister of Finance Luke, but when Ryan and Faras met, Faras never behaved like this.

It was easy to wait for the old bill to finish his babbling words, and then Ryan urged the sat horse forward, and the war horse regained a lot of strength after resting for a while, and under Ryan's command, he honestly walked along the road towards the Iron Fist Castle.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Ryan and Old Bill finally came to the periphery of the Iron Fist Castle, Ryan looked up and carefully looked at the castle built on the mountain, and nodded secretly in his heart, in such a large plain, it is not easy to have a dangerous mountain, and it is not easy for the Emilio family to choose to build a castle here, at least in Lane's sight, the entire castle is made of huge stones, but it takes several days to walk around to reach the Vallo Mountains, which produce huge stones, so you can imagine how great efforts were made when this castle was built。

The entire Iron Fist Castle is completely located on a small hill, although the whole mountain is not very high, it is only more than 100 meters, but it is located in the plain, and the mountain peak is quite steep, if you stand at the foot of the mountain and look up, there is definitely a feeling that it is difficult to match, no wonder Vivian said that the Emilio family once held on to this place with 150 people to resist tens of thousands of troops for three months.

Although Ryan's adventures are only a few years, his footprints can be regarded as traveling all over the continent, such as the Hengduan Mountains, Thor's Fortress, Fernando City, Liberty Paradise, Sea Breeze City, and Moon City...... It can be said that the most important city on the continent, Ryan, has seen it, but this Iron Fist Castle has given Ryan another feeling that is completely different from those previous cities, and the entire Iron Fist Castle should be strictly said to be a multi-building complex, which can be roughly divided into three floors. The lowest floor is located on flat ground, with no stone walls, but a one-man high wooden fence, and most of the inside of this floor are low bungalows, presumably where the commoners attached to the castle lived.

When there was no fighting, these civilians would naturally work in the fields near the castle, and in the event of war, the able-bodied men among the civilians would be replenished into the defenders, and all the houses below were made of wood, which was believed to be easy to ignite, and became the first line of defense against the enemy.

At the junction of the first and second floors of Tekken Castle is a river that surrounds the entire hill, and the river is 10 meters wide, and it is unknown whether it was formed naturally or artificially excavated. On such plains, it was a hassle to make tools for crossing the river, as the materials had to be transported from a relatively long distance. If it is a light raid, it may be that such a moat will crush the enemy's intentions, but if the attacker brings enough baggage, then the defenders of the castle will have plenty of time to arrange.

Inside the moat is the second level of the Iron Fist Castle, and this part can be regarded as the real main body of the castle, it is built on the mountain, except for the only road up the hill to enter the castle, most of the other vertical steep, difficult to climb, has become a nightmare for the attackers. And this only passage is not a straight line, the designers cleverly used the terrain to make the road winding, not only more beautiful, but also greatly slowed down the pace of attackers.

Of course, the second floor of the castle is not only arranged in such a simple way, in fact, the entire hill from the moat at the foot of the hill to the main body of the Iron Fist Castle at the top of the hill can be counted as the second layer of the castle, and the biggest effect of their existence is to slow down the pace of attackers. In order to achieve this, the terrain of the uphill passage was slightly flat every few tens of meters, but in this flatter place, a strong wall was built.

Each wall is 5 meters high, and with Ryan's gaze, he can vaguely see the small holes in the wall, which are believed to be used by archers to observe and attack, if some small stone throwing carts can be arranged, plus a few magicians to assist in the defense, Ryan is looking forward to the expression on the face of the attacker.

Thinking of this, Ryan suddenly shook his head self-deprecatingly, if the defender can use the mage to defend, then why can't the attacker use the mage to attack? No matter how tight the defense is, not all the forbidden spells will be wiped out, will it cost unimaginable manpower and material resources to add a large number of magic arrays in this castle to defend against the forbidden spell blows? This is simply not worth the loss.

Thinking of this, Ryan put this unrealistic thought aside, he continued to observe the whole castle, and found that there were neatly dressed soldiers patrolling every city wall from time to time, although the number was not large, and the density of patrols was not very large, but these soldiers were well-equipped, everyone wore leather armor, and the weapons in their hands were brand new spears, and everyone's faces were full of energy, and it could be seen that the morale was good.

At the highest point of the whole mountain, is the third level of the Iron Fist Castle, which is also the main body of the real Iron Fist Castle, the whole complex is located on the top of the hill that has been forcibly flattened, not to mention, the huge and thick iron gate of the castle alone is enough to make people prohibitive, there are no hundreds, if you don't use the large winch, you don't want to open it, of course, at this time, this huge iron door is open, and Ryan happened to see Vivien and Adela walking side by side through the gate.

Ryan's eyes swept slightly, but he saw a rather striking building, a circular building with a spire, which was located at the back of the entire castle complex, but the whole building was quite high, so even Ryan, who was at the foot of the mountain, could faintly see the bright red of the circular building's appearance.
