Iron-blood Tower made the private room upstairs more brilliant. Covering over 300 square meters, all the furnishings in the private room were resplendent like an imperial palace.
Only after Zhang Tie, Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan arrived here for a few minutes, more and more knights had entered this private room one after another.
As it was a secret gathering of knights in the Lion Fortress, they were all on time. After entering the private room, they exchanged a glance with each other before nodding towards each other. Closely after that, they found a place to sit down silently.
Before 9 am, there were already 11 knights in the chartered room, including 3 teams of 3 knights. The other 2 knights, a man and a woman, looked very intimate. They seemed to be a Hua couple. As for the other 3 teams of knights, one team of 3 knights was composed of a tough black man, a white tough man and a blonde female knight.
This power was enough to destroy a city or a country in any subcontinent.
All the knights here had powerful qi. At least, they were more vigorous than common black iron knights. Many of them felt bloody and oppressive.
Many knights here would throw a glance at Zhang Tie unconsciously. Of course, Zhang Tie's height and figure were the reasons; what counted most was that Zhang Tie was too shabby.
Compared to the other knights, Zhang Tie who only wore a set of common battle uniform was like a peasant worker who came out of a slum. As for the other knights, their armors and weapons had all broken through the black iron effect. At the sight of them, Zhang Tie had known that they were premium goods worth tens of thousands of gold coins. Even the Hua couple didn't wear heavy armors or armors, given their plain gold-rolling boa silk robe and the pair of white-sheathed longswords hanging over their waists, they looked like an immortal couple no matter how one looked at them.
All the knights had arrived at the private room a few minutes earlier. After that, they just waited there and communicated with each other using battle qi.
The tough black man kept throwing glances at Zhang Tie. Among all the knights in the private room, his figure and height were very outstanding; however, he had not imagined that Zhang Tie was even a bit taller than him. Additionally, Zhang Tie's muscles were as firm as iron which faintly revealed an explosive strength.
Watching the tough black man glancing at him, Zhang Tie grinned towards him.
This tough black man reminded Zhang Tie of Bagdad. Such a knight was definitely Bagdad's idol.
At 9 pm, the door of the private room was pushed open from outside as a person entered.
At the sight of this person, all the knights in the compartment stood up at once as they paid their respect to him.
Watching Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan standing up, Zhang Tie also stood up. Meanwhile, he glanced at the newcomer out of curiosity.
It was an old man who looked to be in his sixties. He was not tall and was even a little thin. There were two strands of silver-white hair between his temples. The rest of his hair was combed neatly. His nose and forehead were high, and his eyes were slender and sparkling.
The newcomer was an earth knight, which could be sensed from his qi. The qi and pressure of an earth knight could completely suppress a black iron knight. He had already entered another realm. Given the responses of the other knights in the private room, Zhang Tie knew that this person was very prestigious in the Lion Fortress, at least among these people.
"Nice to meet you, Mountain Lifting Hermit..." All the others greeted him at the same time.
Mountain Lifting Hermit was the title of this earth knight, which also represented his background in Taixia Country. This person didn't belong to the imperial court or a major clan in Taixia Country. Because if this person belonged to the imperial court of Taixia Country, people would call him with his official position such as general or provincial governor. If this person came from a major clan, he would call him elder or clan head. The title of Mountain Lifting Hermit indicated that this person was an independent knight or came from a sect in Taixia Country.
Zhang Tie's current identity was also a lone knight.
Mountain Lifting Hermit nodded as he glanced over all the others in the private room with a sharp eye light, "Come here and have a talk!"
After saying that, Mountain Lifting Hermit walked to the front of a long table in the private room. After that, he sat on the main seat of the long table. All the other knights in the corners and sofas also came to the front of the long table and sat on the stools.
The long table which was longer than 10 m could hold 20-30 people. Of course, it was enough for over 10 knights in the private room.
Zhang Tie followed Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan over there and sat on the lower seat, namely the end on the left side of Mountain Lifting Hermit. As Zhang Tie was taller and bigger, he felt more comfortable sitting at the end. Zhang Tie was facing the three foreign knights who were sitting at the end.
It felt like a small conference among knights. The team in the private room plus a black iron knight as their leader was already a subversive force in Waii Sub-continent.
Zhang Tie sighed with emotions inside, 'The Lion Fortress is really a capital of knights.'
All the guests here seemed to know Mountain Lifting Hermit; however, they were not familiar with each other. Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan were just a bit familiar with the knight who greeted them in the bar just now. As for the others, they just heard about them. Take the couple as an instance, Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan had just heard about them. This couple seemed to come from Huizhou Province, Taixia Country. They excelled at joint strike skills and had killed demon knights in the Lion Fortress.
"Now that you could come here, you must know our purpose. I will put it simply. Our target is a pre-historical relic in the first abyss. Due to the hurricane in the abyss, that pre-historical relic could only be entered once every 3 years. When we entered that pre-historical relic last time, someone discovered a Weapons Mountain and gained a lot of silver secret items from it. Someone even gained nanobeads and space-teleportation equipment from the relic. My first target is nanobeads and space-teleportation equipment!" Mountain Lifting Hermit opened his mouth in a muffled voice.
The moment the words "Weapons Mountain" was heard, it had aroused an uproar among the black iron knights on both sides.
"If so, why do you summon us to go there together? Based on hermit's battle strength and means, it should not be difficult for you to gain nanobead and space-teleportation equipment." The man sitting on the right side of Mountain Lifting Hermit opened his mouth. As knights, they all had their own considerations and interests; especially in such an action. Even though Mountain Lifting Hermit was an earth knight, he was equal to the other black iron knights in the Lion Fortress. He was not qualified to order the other black iron knights. "That pre-historical relic is in a space similar to Dongtian.
It's a hieron. According to the knight who entered that pre-historical relic for the first time, that pre-historical relic is guarded by some powerful battle puppets. If one person enters it alone, it would take him a long time to defeat those battle puppets. Before the hurricane in the abyss seals the pre-historical relic once again, he might not have a chance to gain silver secret items or space-teleportation equipment. Therefore, it's the best for us to go there in a team. We could share the stress with each other and earn a bit more time for each other. It's a win-win situation! "
"Hermit, do you mean that we might meet other people on this trip? Hermit is not the only one who knows about that pre-historical relic?" Zhou Shufan asked after thinking for a short while.
"Right!" Mountain Lifting Hermit nodded, "Additionally, that pre-historical relic is located in the depth of the first abyss, which is intertwined with the forces of demons. It's the region where demon knights move most frequently. We might encounter demon knights. Even if we enter the relics, we might meet the competition of other knights who enter the Lion Fortress at the same time. Therefore, this action is very dangerous. Additionally, we could not guarantee that each of us could gain a silver secret item!"
"How do we distribute the booties?" the white knight on the opposite of Zhang Tie asked.
"Before entering the prehistorical relics, each of you should keep your own booty and meritorious points. After entering the prehistorical relics, we will join hands to break through the blockade of the battle puppets in the hieron. The first space-teleportation equipment that our squad gains belongs to me, nanobead or something else. If we don't gain a space-teleportation equipment, I have the priority to select one item among all the silver secret items that our squad has gained. If I've already gained a space-teleportation equipment, it would depend on your own luck and ability. I would not participate in any distribution! "
Mountain Lifting Hermit's distribution plan was a bit domineering; however, it was very fair. Because of the battle strength of an earth knight, as the convener and guide of this action, of course, Mountain Lifting Hermit had a greater distribution right.
Only after thinking about it for a short while, all of them nodded and agreed with this distribution plan.
"This action is very dangerous. Therefore, I hope that all of you who could participate in this action are powerhouses and have at least one record of killing a demon knight." Mountain Lifting Hermit said as he fixated onto Zhang Tie.
As a newcomer in the Lion Fortress, Zhang Tie was not well-known. Additionally, he looked shabby. No wonder Mountain Lifting Hermit threw a glance at him.
After hearing Mountain Lifting Hermit's words, all the other knights fixated onto Zhang Tie.
"Younger brother Cui LI has been in the Lion Fortress for less than one month. He has just killed an ox-head demon knight a few days ago!" Zhou Shufan said calmly.
After hearing that, all the others moved their eyes away from Zhang Tie...
Mountain Lifting Hermit moved his eyes around the other knights once again before saying decisively, "Now that we've made a decision, we will set off at 9 am tomorrow..."
