Since he screwed up the event in Iron-Lensed Castle a few months ago, his position in Senel Clan had suffered a sharp decline. The golden gate which was opened to him just now had been closed once again. Not only that, when he was trying his best to climb up, he was struck down from the ascending tunnel mercilessly. As a result, he became a warehouse keeper of Senel Clan in Tokei City.
How could a warehouse keeper be as comfortable as a steward of the manor? This was a hard job. Apart from the fluorite lamp in his hand, there was only the whistle hanging around his neck, which would probably never be blown.
Previously, he would at least hug a beautiful female slave and sleep in the quilt at this moment; however, now, he had to come out for inspection over and over again. Even though he returned to his own room, it was still tranquil. Therefore, it became more and more unbearable.
"How could I be blamed for Zhang Tie's escape..." Navas felt very aggrieved. After finding nobody else was around, he started to mutter to comfort himself. After staying alone for a few months, he had formed the habit of murmuring, "It was a knight who slaughtered people in Tokei City that day. The one who saved Selnes Eagle might also be a knight. Because only a knight could sneak into Iron-Edge Fortress and make a living person disappear in the secret prison without arousing anybody's attention. I'm just a small figure. Even if I was on the spot, I could not stop a knight from doing that. I've served Senel Clan for over 20 years. I'm so loyal and devoted. How could you let me sit on the bench? When that knight started a massacre in Tokei City, didn't you just stand aside and watch him? "
It seemed that the last sentence was a bit outrageous. After saying that, Navas looked around with a guilty conscience. After confirming that there was no one around, he muttered a few more words and held the fluorite lamp in his hand. Holding the fluorite lamp, he checked whether the locks of those warehouses were intact or not.
This high-walled courtyard was located in the most heavily guarded core area of Tokei City. It was once the place where Grand Duke Titanic, the ruler of Titanic Duchy, hid his mistress. As Grand Duke Titanic had a jealous and vicious wife who liked to dispatch killers to kill those who dared compete for men with him, this courtyard was built in a low-key way. Additionally, the courtyard wall was high enough. It was thick enough and had enough protection. The rooms inside could also give people a sense of security and trust. At least if someone hid inside and closed the door, it would be difficult for people outside to break in with brute force.
Therefore, after Titanic Duchy collapsed, precisely after Titanic Duchy fell into the hand of Senel Clan, this place became a warehouse of Senel Clan.
When all the wealth of the capital city and the greater part of the duchy converged into the hands of Senel Clan, Senel Clan had to find some places to store them. The warehouse of the bank of Titanic Duchy had been full. The secret warehouse of Grand Duke Titanic's castle had been full. Since the secret warehouse of Senel Clan was full, they had to store the rest in other places. Senel Clan selected this warehouse as the place where Grand Duke Titanic hid his mistress.
If he was in another place, such as a human settlement in the south which had not been occupied by demons, Navas might have some other thoughts when he was guarding such a huge warehouse at night; however, as he was in Tokei City, he dared not have any other thoughts at all.
There were two reasons. First, money and properties were forbidden to circulate in all the areas occupied by demons. All the money and precious metals had to be handed in. You could not buy anything with money here; nobody would sell anything here. As long as you were found to be in possession of money and precious metals, you would be sentenced to death. Second, even if you could take some items away from here, you could not take them across the entire Titanic Duchy to the south. If you really wanted to escape, you would be eaten by those demonized puppets in the wild.
Senel Clan also knew that Navas dared not escape. Therefore, they left him here so as to let him play his role.
At this moment, Navas was imagining that a big figure in Senel Clan could recall his name and transfer him away from this sh * tty place one day. At the same time, he started to admire that Senel Eagle which had escaped away from him.
"It's said that that guy's aircraft could take off from any place and move very fast in the sky. If only I could do that..." Navas thought as he licked his lips and threw a greedy glance at the locked door of the warehouse.
He knew what was in the warehouse. These items which commoners could not use or take out in the areas occupied by demons were actually very useful for Senel Clan.
It was said that Senel Clan and the other "nobles" in demon occupied areas were still exchanging with this item. Through the relationship and network of Three-eye Association, this item could still be used in human ruled areas and human countries. Therefore, people coveted it. The reason that commoners were not allowed to use and store these items in the areas occupied by demons was that the "nobles" here could plunder and deprive these items more efficiently.
After circling around, Navas didn't find anything abnormal. Therefore, he returned to his cabin with fluorite lamp and fell asleep once again. However, he didn't know that a pair of eyes had been gazing at him from the sky.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was still in the sky. He didn't know what Navas was guarding here. He only found that Navas returned to a cabin after circling around some cabins. Closely after that, the fluorite lamp in the cabin turned dark.
This place was very hidden. Additionally, nobody else was in the surroundings. After observing it for a short while and confirming that it was not a trap, Zhang Tie sneered. Zhang Tie sneered as he folded his wings and descended from the sky.
In the beginning, Zhang Tie plunged down like an arrow. When he was about 50 m high from the ground, Zhang Tie stretched out his wings proficiently while the airflow passed through his wings and feathers, slowing him down at once. With the help of the airflow, Zhang Tie looked like a paper airplane made by a kid. It glided down from the sky without making a sound.
As long as it didn't flap its wings, the thunder hawk would hardly make any sound when gliding. It was extremely quiet. It was also mixed with the sound of the wind. Even an expert would find it hard to discover anything.
The thunder hawk then landed behind a parterre which was covered with tidy plants. After entering Castle of Black Iron for a few seconds, Zhang Tie appeared in the shadow of the parterre. With a cold look, he watched Navas who had just entered the room less than 20 m away from him. Standing there, Zhang Tie sensed a much more powerful battle aura. Zhang Tie could even hear the sound of Navas turning over on the bed.
This was what it meant to wear out iron shoes in fruitless searching, only to find it effortlessly by chance. Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could meet that b * stard Navas after exiting Castle of Black Iron and taking a round in Tokei City for the first time.
If not by chance, Zhang Tie really didn't have time and energy to deal with such a small figure. Even if he wanted to, Zhang Tie would find the members of Senel Clan instead of those trivial lackeys of Senel Clan. However, now that Zhang Tie had encountered him, he would not let him go. The moment he recalled those cruel tortures that Navas had inflicted on him with a sneer, Zhang Tie's killing intent started to surge.
Zhang Tie then walked towards Navas' cabin silently.
When Zhang Tie came to the front of the cabin, he wanted to shake open the lock of the door using his battle qi; however, he found that the door was just closed, leaving a gap. Zhang Tie then pushed open the door and walked in generously.
"Who's that?" When the door was pushed open, Navas, who was still lying on the bed, woke up with a start. He immediately sprung up from the bed.
A LV 6 fighter could always respond very fast in a critical situation. Navas' response was not slow either. Pitifully, he met Zhang Tie.
With a distance of about 7-8 m, the moment Navas sprung up, Zhang Tie had punched towards him casually.
Zhang Tie punched towards Navas, who had just jumped into the air, like a fly being slapped by a fly swatter, causing a crispy sound all over his body. Closely after that, he spat out a mouth of blood and fell onto the bed heavily after rolling over, remaining still.
Zhang Tie then walked towards him leisurely.
Navas had already passed out. After taking a look at him, Zhang Tie found that almost half of Navas' bones had been broken. At this moment, Navas' face had turned pale golden while he was barely breathing.
Zhang Tie swore in a low voice, "F * ck, isn't this b * stard good at dealing with people? When I slapped him, I didn't find that this b * stard was so fragile. How could he be so weak now?"
When Zhang Tie recalled that when he slapped Navas a few months ago, he was just a LV 9 fighter whose battle strength had been sealed. Besides Shrine surging points, he had only lit 34 surging points on his spine. However, at this moment, besides Shrine surging points, he had lit 125 surging points all over his body. He was already a LV 11 5-star battle master. Additionally, he cultivated Iron-blood Fist and Infinite King Roc Sutra. His battle strength had long been much greater than before. Therefore, it was normal for Navas to be "weak".
When Zhang Tie thought about this, he scratched his head bashfully, 'It turns out that my opponent has not become weaker, but I've become stronger. I've not been used to it yet.'
When Zhang Tie looked at him for a few seconds, Navas tilted his head as he spurted out black blood from his mouth corners. Closely after that, he died in a split second. He didn't even know who killed him. What a shame! '
"F * ck!" Zhang Tie swore inside. After staying in Castle of Black Iron for a few months, he finally caught a tongue. Previously, he wanted to wake him up and ask him some questions. It seemed that it was hopeless.
After Navas was dead, Zhang Tie started to look around...
Navas' room was neither plain nor luxurious. There was nothing special about the furnishings in the room. After throwing a glance at it, Zhang Tie wanted to leave. However, the moment he left, an item on the bedside table had attracted his attention.
It was a copper whistle.
'Whistle? ' At the sight of that whistle, Zhang Tie instantly recalled what Navas was doing in the sky just now. 'This guy might have taken a circle outside those rooms with a fluorite lamp. He even hung a whistle over his neck.'What's he doing?' 'It's strange, nobody else is here. He doesn't need to patrol and stand sentry at night.
'Did Senel Clan assign him to guard something here? '
The moment this whim occurred to Zhang Tie's mind had he become spirited at once. 'At least it's not a pile of rubbish. As long as it could cause a strike and loss to Senel Clan, it would be meaningful for Zhang Tie to make a contribution to the holy war.'
Therefore, Zhang Tie left Navas's room and walked outside.
This was also a manor. However, being different than other manors, this manor was relatively low-key.
There was a big house dozens of meters away from Navas' room. When Zhang Tie came to the front of the big house, he found the door was tightly locked. Some windows had been sealed from inside. Zhang Tie tried to push the door and found it was made of metal. Besides being thick, it was also very heavy. Zhang Tie had not imagined that the defense here was so strict.
'F * ck! ' Zhang Tie swore inside as he became more curious.
If Zhang Tie was not afraid of making too much noise, of course, he could break this metal door. The problem was that it was late at night. As long as he made a loud noise, it would definitely alarm the people outside. Therefore, he couldn't break it by force.
'What should I do? '
A whim occurred to Zhang Tie as he squatted down in a hidden place outside the big house. He then took out his dark tore gloves from Castle of Black Iron. After putting on the dark tore gloves, Zhang Tie injected his battle qi into it. Closely after that, he inserted his hands into the stony wall in front of him like inserting a piece of tofu.
After entering a short distance, Zhang Tie's fingertips touched a layer of steel plate which was even harder than granite. It was not a common steel plate, but a high-intensity alloy steel plate which was much harder than common steel plates.
'There's a high-intensity alloy steel plate in the wall? ' Zhang Tie swore inside as he continued to exert his strength. Soon, he tore a hole in the alloy steel plate. After that, he continued to insert his battle qi into the wall. When his entire arm almost penetrated into the wall, he suddenly felt empty in front of the dark tore gloves as all the resistance disappeared. Zhang Tie knew that he had broken through the wall.
