Chapter Twenty-Three: The Black Iron Knight
When the fire gradually extinguished, the four walls of the valley were already broken and blackened.
The group slowly walked into it, the red jade spirit grass located in the mid-air groove of the stone wall was not burned by the fire, and the hundreds of spirit fruits on it were red and radiating a moving luster, which made people yearn for it, and a cool breath was released, which made people's hearts and spleens.
Chen Nan stepped to the front, stretched out his hand to touch the faint branches, turned around and smiled lightly, "There are more than a hundred spirit fruits here, brothers divide it!"
"Five for each person!"
"No!" Yang Da said suddenly.
"Brother Chennan, what's wrong with this, if it weren't for the way you thought, maybe we would all give up, and now we can get this red jade spirit fruit without spending a single soldier, so let's do it, one of our brothers, and you can take the rest yourself!"
The attitude is very resolute, Brother Hu and the rest of the people are nodding, usually they just see that there is a red jade spirit fruit here, they have no choice, not to mention that their talent is not as good as Chen Nan, after all, they can only stay in the army, Chen Nan will go out in the future, some treasures are still useful.
"I'll take five, and you don't want the rest!"
Stretched out his hand and picked five directly, Chen Nan turned his head away, it seemed that he really didn't want these, and the others looked at each other, Yang Da couldn't help but shake his head, and directly picked one down, and each person shared one in his hand, "One of us people, Chen Nan's little brother doesn't want it, we will take it back and give it to other brothers!"
Nodding, everyone agreed, after all, those who have experienced in other places will also encounter times of crisis, this red jade spirit fruit has a particularly strong detoxification effect, and each of them keeps one for life-saving.
By noon, a few people took the corpse of the lone wind black wolf and skinned it, set up a bonfire to barbecue the demon beast, they often survive on the periphery of the wasteland, they have good barbecue skills, and the seasonings are relatively complete, which is much better than what Chen Nan ate last time.
In the afternoon, they continued to look for lone demon beasts, no matter what happened, the Heaven-Shaking Legion that went out during the day would come back, with extremely strong discipline, they were still mortals after all, and they lived in the wasteland, but also for orders, only by tempering between life and death, they were the most elite army of the three royal cities, with great prestige and blood.
During the day, he followed one of their teams out to practice, and at night he cultivated the map of mountains and rivers, Chen Nan's strength cultivation and combat effectiveness were also rising, and in three months, he was also familiar with most of them, and these warriors who licked blood on the knife edge were much easier to talk to than those hypocrites.
Continuous efforts, when the hundredth page of the map of mountains and rivers was opened, Chen Nan also successfully broke through to the middle stage of the congenital, and the improvement of strength made the confidence on his face more obvious, and when he met that commander again, he must slaughter the other party with his own hands.
After a few months of training, walking in the periphery of the wasteland, the water chestnuts on his face have become more and more distinct, and his body has also risen a lot, even compared to many strong men of the Heaven-Shaking Legion, it is not much better, but his flowing silver hair still looks particularly dazzling among these five big and three thick men.
After such a period of time, Chen Nan was also even more surprised by the Heaven-Shaking Legion, they didn't have any commander, if there was, it was Yang Lin, they were united and mutually helpful, with an extremely terrifying cohesion, fearless spirit, all the way forward bravely, invincible, maybe their general realm is not very high, but their combat effectiveness is beyond ordinary people, and even more than ordinary realms higher than their martial artists.
And the more this is the case, the more Chen Nan can be curious about Yang Lin, what kind of person can control this army, this is a group of humanoid beasts living in the wasteland, and in their unintentional conversation, when it comes to Yang Lin, the king of Jingyuan, there is only respect left in their eyes, not pretentious, but the worship of the heart, maybe the famous general who has had a relationship through the ages will really be an amazing person......
On the edge of the outer edge of the wasteland, in the depths of a wide dense forest, an army of black armor walked here, the team was very neat, and at the front was a general figure with a feather helmet, a murderous aura was permeated, combined with the huge murderous aura of the entire team, some low-level demon beasts that approached were all fleeing from the wind.
"Who are these?"
In the dense forest around this army, there are nearly 100 people hidden, one of which is a familiar face with vicissitudes of life, it is Chen Nan, at this moment, with Brother Yang Dahu and others, started today's experience, but I didn't expect to bump into an army, Chen Nan asked.
"Black Iron Knight!"
Yang Lin's voice was a little heavy, his face was solemn, and a group of people quietly hid around, all showing surprise, Chen Nan was slightly puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "What is the Black Iron Knight?"
"The Black Iron Knight is the elite unit of the Chu Dynasty, one of the most elite troops of the three major dynasties except for our Heaven-Shaking Legion, and the person at the head is Meng Cheng, the vanguard general of the Chu Dynasty!"
Chen Nan couldn't help but be surprised, this place is the periphery of the wasteland, although it is not Donglin County and does not belong to the Qin Dynasty, it is the closest to the Qin Dynasty, and the Chu Dynasty is on the other side of the Wasteland Mountain Range, does it indicate something if you run here at this moment?
"General, is the Heaven-Shaking Legion really here?"
A person dressed as an adjutant behind Meng Cheng asked, a cold smile appeared on Meng Cheng's face, "I heard that the Heaven-Shaking Legion is known as the first legion in the world and often haunts the periphery of the Wasteland, at this moment, our Black Iron Knight will go to destroy their prestige, and then wait for our army to cross the Wasteland Mountain Range, destroy the 200,000 troops guarding the Wasteland Mountain Range, let go of the 200,000 bandits in the Wasteland Mountain Range, and let his Qin Dynasty go into chaos!"
"Hmm!"
Yang Dachennan and his entourage were not very far apart, and they clearly heard Meng Cheng's voice, they were all shocked, the black iron knight who appeared on the periphery of the wasteland actually had such a conspiracy, the 200,000 bandits on the wasteland mountain range, if it were not for the 200,000 Qin army at the foot of the mountain to suppress it, would have jumped down the mountain to make trouble.
"How?" Brother Hu lowered his rough throat and asked in a low voice, not saying what to do, but directly saying how to do it, which showed his attitude.
"I don't care how he wants to trouble the Qin Dynasty, but these 200,000 barren thieves, if they really run down the mountain, the first place to enter must be Donglin County, I, Jingyuan Palace, how can I stand idly by!" Yang Lin said ruthlessly, his tone was particularly firm.
"Go back and mobilize the army!" Yang Da waved his hand, and the group was just about to move, but Chen Nan immediately waved his hand to stop it, with a slight evil smile on his face, "Have you forgotten that place last time?"
"You mean ......"
Some people quickly came to their senses and were often with Chen Nan, and they began to understand that this seemingly immature young man had all the things of the Yin people in his head, and since he dared to say so, there must be a way to deal with it.
"Okay, listen to my command and lead them over for a big meal!"
With an evil smile, nearly a hundred people nodded, and when the army of Black Iron Knights passed by, all the people in the group appeared.
"Meng Cheng!" Yang Da sneered, the people behind him were all cold, staring at the army in front of him, seeing someone blocking the way, Meng Cheng's face sank, and he waved his hand to stop the army's advance, "You are?"
Brother Hu shook his head, "You guys are coming to trouble our Heaven-Shaking Legion, you don't know us, it's really ridiculous, have the people of the Chu Dynasty become fools when they come here?"
"Bastard, what kind of thing are you, dare to talk to our general like this!" The adjutant beside Meng Cheng drew his sword and pointed angrily at Brother Tiger.
"What do you say, believe it or not, I slaughtered you!"
Brother Tiger is also a fiery temper, and when he heard the adjutant's words, he immediately jumped into anger, his eyes widened, and a murderous aura permeated, making the adjutant's face pale and he was so frightened that he took a step back.
"Rubbish!" Chen Nan scolded coldly, making the adjutant stunned, and when he saw a hairy boy actually talking about himself like this, he was immediately dumbfounded, "You ......"
"Don't talk nonsense, Meng Cheng, no matter what you come for, retreat to the other side of the Wasteland Mountain Range now, otherwise I will invite you to fight the Black Iron Knight!"
Yang was rolling in momentum, and a group of people behind him were all murderous and galloping, facing the army of black iron knights, there was no fear at all, and a killing aura in the air gradually spread.
"Although you are the Heaven-Shaking Legion, and you are indeed very strong in combat, but are you sure that there are so many of you now, you want to invite me and my army of Black Iron Knights?" Meng Cheng's face was gloomy, and his voice was much colder.
"Yes!" Yang Da nodded, the smell of gunpowder in the air became even stronger.
"Since you are looking for death by yourself, then you can't complain that I have bullied you less, so let's fight!" Meng Cheng waved his hand, commanding his sword and pointing ahead, and suddenly the killing aura came to the sky, and the black iron knight army moved in unison, and a great momentum descended, pressing behind Chen Nan and the others.
"Kill!"
Yang Da also shouted angrily, and then the sound of killing shook the sky, but Meng Cheng's face changed, although those people shouted the word kill in their mouths, but they directly turned around and ran back, making the murderous army of black iron knights all stunned, as if they didn't understand the situation.
"They're going to join up with the reinforcements, chase after them!" Meng Cheng's adjutant shouted as if he had thought of something.
"Chase!" Meng Cheng waved his hand, Yang Da and they took the initiative to provoke, how could they let them leave!
So in the dense forest on the periphery of the wasteland, a chase battle broke out, tens of thousands of black iron knights, chasing a hundred big men, the wind and dust rolling, the murderous aura was monstrous, the sound shook the earth, the wind swept by, and the low-level demon beasts fled from the wind.
Chen Nan and the others have been living on the periphery of the wasteland for a long time, they are familiar with the terrain, and the Black Iron Knight also wears heavy armor, and in terms of comprehensive strength, the people of the Heaven-Shaking Legion are also higher than the Black Iron Knights, and the Black Iron Knight Army is already at the level of non-commissioned officers.
The distance between the two sides was quickly widened, and Meng Cheng's face was pale, but soon, the people of the Heaven-Shaking Legion seemed to see the figure again, they were running desperately, but the speed was not as fast as expected, it seemed to be waiting for them, but at this moment, Meng Cheng obviously didn't think of anything, he didn't believe that no matter how strong these hundred people were, there would be a way to deal with their tens of thousands of black iron troops, in his opinion, the other party must have gone to join the large army.
Half an hour later, Chen Nan and the others entered a dark valley, which seemed to be a dead end, seeing this moment, Meng Cheng, who was constantly chasing behind, laughed, seeing that they ran again, they were also killing themselves.
"Quick, quick!"
Yang roared angrily, these people separated to some dark and lightless places in the valley, and then ran out at a faster speed, it seemed that something terrible was chasing them, in fact, it was true, when the army of black iron knights all chased here, they found that Chen Nan and others were missing, and from the dark corner of the valley, some terrible things rushed out.
"What's that?" The army of Black Iron Knights panicked, and in the valley sealed on three sides, black shadows spread from the sky, and the buzzing sound that shook the eardrums could be faintly heard, and one by one, fist-sized bee monsters descended on them with an incomparably oppressive aura, and the people of the Heaven-Shaking Legion who attracted them in all disappeared.
"Tricked!" No matter how stupid Meng Cheng was, he should have thought that he had been deceived, but at this moment, the screams that came and went in the army of the Black Iron Knight made his face turn pale, and without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and fled.
Even if it is an innate powerhouse, it can't stop such a terrifying group of demon beasts, these monsters are like wasps, but they are as big as fists, and the thorns on their tails are terrifyingly poisonous, as long as someone is stung, even if they are innate strong, they will die immediately after struggling for a while.
"Damn!"
With an angry scolding, tens of thousands of black iron knights, who had chased Chen Nan and the others for so long and were still wearing heavy armor, had long since lost their physical strength, and now they couldn't run, so they could only die one by one under the dense poisonous bees.
And there was only one figure in the distance, who left by luck, it was Meng Cheng, he couldn't save so many people, he could only ensure his own safety.
