The private room upstairs was more brilliant . Covering over 300 square meters, it was as resplendent and magnificent as an imperial palace .
Soon after Zhang Tie, Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan arrived here, the other knights constantly entered this private room .
It was a secret party for some knights in the Lion Fortress . Therefore, they all arrived here on time . After entering the private room, they exchanged a glance with each other and nodded at each other before taking a seat quietly .
Before 9 pm, 11 knights had arrived in the private room . They were in 4 groups, three groups were composed of 3 knights respectively while the rest two Hua knights were a couple given their genial looks and behaviors . One group was composed of three foreigners——a black tough man, a white tough man and a blonde woman .
The 4 groups of knights were destructive to a city or a nation in any subcontinent .
All the knights here had strong qis . They were at least more capable and vigorous than common black iron knights . Many of them had a bloody sense of oppression .
Many knights here threw a glance at Zhang Tie in spite of themselves because of Zhang Tie's sturdy figure and height and dowdy look .
Compared to the other knights, Zhang Tie was completely like a migrant worker from a slum as he only wore a set of common battle uniforms without any special weapon . However, the other knights' helmets, armors or portable weapons were all senior commodities which had broken the black iron effect . Given their looks, Zhang Tie knew that they were all elaborate works which were worth millions of gold coins . Even the Hua couple in white and golden boa silk robes with white-sheath longswords at their waists looked like an immortal couple .
All the knights arrived at this private room a few minutes earlier than the regulation . After that, they just waited here and communicated with each other in a secret way .
A black tough guy constantly threw a glance at Zhang Tie . As his figure and height were outstanding among all the knights at present, he had not imagined that Zhang Tie was taller than him; additionally, Zhang Tie's muscles were as firm as steel which revealed an explosive strength faintly .
Watching the black tough man glancing at him, Zhang Tie grinned towards him .
This black tough man reminded Zhang Tie of Bagdad . Such a knight was definitely the idol of Bagdad .
At 9 pm, the door of the private room was pushed open from outside while a man entered .
Watching this man entering the room, all the knights who were sitting in the private room stood up at once so as to greet him .
Zhang Tie stood up together with Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan too; meanwhile, he glanced at the man out of curiosity .
That was an old man at his 60s . He was not tall and was even a bit thin . Besides two strands of silver hair near his temples, his hair looked pretty smooth and tidy . With bulgy nose and forehead and slim legs, his eyes glittered .
Given the sense of oppression which was overwhelming to black iron knights at present, Zhang Tie knew that this guy must be an earth knight . Given the other knights' response to him, Zhang Tie knew that this guy must be extremely dignified among these people .
"Mountain Lifting Hermit . . . " They all greeted him .
Mountain Lifting Hermit was the official name of this earth knight, which also represented his background in Taixia Country . Given his official name, he didn't serve the imperial palace or any major clan in Taixia Country . Otherwise, they would add Lord plus official positions such as General, Provincial Governor ahead of Mountain Lifting . However, if this guy originated from a major clan, he would be called Elder or Clan Head Mountain Lifting . The official name Mountain Lifting Hermit indicated that he was a lonely knight who used to cultivate himself or a member of a sect in Taixia Country .
Zhang Tie's current identity was also a lonely knight .
Mountain Liting Hermit nodded as he threw a glance over the knights at present before saying, "Please take a seat!"
After the Mountain Lifting Hermit issued an order, he walked to a long table in the private room and sat on the main seat . At the sight of this, the other knights in the corners and sofas of the private room also came to the long table and sat down .
As the table was longer than 10 m, it was available for over 20 people, not to mention the 12 knights in total .
Zhang Tie walked over there with Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan and sat inferior to them, also the end of the left side of Mountain Lifting Hermit . As Zhang Tie was tall and sturdy, he sat there with ease . On his opposite were the three foreign knights .
It felt like a mini-conference among knights . If being led by a black iron knight, this team was already destructive in Waii Subcontinent, not to mention that it was led by an earth knight .
Zhang Tie sighed with emotions inside, 'Lion Fortress is really a capital city of knights . '
It seemed that all the knights at present had known about Mountain Lifting Hermit; however, they were strange to each other . Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan were just a bit familiar with that knight who greeted them in the lobby of the bar just now . They had heard about the others at most . Take the immortal couple as an instance, Gong Ziyao and Zhou Shufan heard that couple came from Huizhou Province, Taixia Country, who excelled at the combined strike . They had killed some demon knights in the Lion Fortress .
"Now that you came here, you must have known our purpose . I will put it simply . Our destination is a pre-historical relic in the first abyss . Due to the hurricane in the abyss, that pre-historical relic was accessible every 3 years . Last time, someone found the Mountain of Weapons in the pre-historical relic and gained a lot of silver secret items from there . Someone even gained nanobeads and space-teleportation equipment from there . My first target is nanobead and space-teleportation equipment!" The Mountain Lifting Hermit said in a muffled voice .
The moment the other black iron knights heard "Mountain of Weapons", they were in uproar at once .
"If so, Mountain Lifting Hermit, why do you summon us to go there? Based on your battle strength and skills, you could easily gain nanobead and space-teleportation equipment over there alone . " The male of the couple on the right hand of Mountain Lifting Hermit posed his question . As knights, they all had their own concerns and benefits, especially in such an action . Even though Mountain Lifting Hermit was an earth knight, he was on equal footing with the other black iron knights on rights . He had no right to order the other black iron knights to do anything .
"That pre-historical relic is in a space like a Shangrila . It's a hieron . According to the knights who entered the pre-historical relics for the first time, some powerful battle puppets were safeguarding the pre-historical hieron inside . It would take a long time for one person to repel those battle puppets . Before the hurricane in the abyss sealed the pre-historical relic once again, I alone might not have a chance to gain any silver secret item or other space-teleportation equipment . Therefore, if we go there in a team, we could share the stress and benefits together . It's a win-win situation!"
"You mean we might encounter enemies in the pre-historic relic?" Zhou Shufan asked after thinking for a second .
"Yes!" Mountain Lifting Hermit nodded immediately, "Additionally, the pre-historical relic is in a very deep place of the first abyss, which is crisscrossed with the frequent forces of the demons . We probably need to fight demons there . Even though we could enter the pre-historical relic, we might face competitions from other knights from the Lion Fortress . Therefore, it's a very dangerous action; plus, we cannot ensure that everyone at present could gain a silver secret item!"
"How do we allocate the booties?" The white knight on the opposite of Zhang Tie asked .
"Before entering the pre-historical relic, the booties and meritorious points that you gain from killing demon knights belong to yourselves . After entering the pre-historical relics, we will join hands to break the battle puppets in the hieron . The first space-teleportation equipment that our team gains belong to me, nanobead or others . If there's no space-teleportation equipment, the first silver secret item that our team gains belong to me . I enjoy the right of selecting one item at first . As for the rest, it depends . I don't need anything else from you!"
Mountain Lifting Hermit revealed his plan of allocation in an arrogant look yet fair way . As an earth knight with greater battle strength, the convener and the leader of this action, of course, he enjoyed a greater right of distribution .
After thinking for a second, everybody else nodded .
"As this action is very dangerous, I hope everybody at present is a powerhouse who has at least killed one demon knight . " Mountain Lifting Hermit said as he focused on Zhang Tie .
Zhang Tie was a newbie in the Lion Fortress . Therefore, few people knew him here; plus his dowdy look, no wonder Mountain Lifting Hermit paid more attention to him .
Hearing Mountain Lifting Hermit's suggestion, all the other knights moved their eyes onto Zhang Tie .
"Although young elder Cui Li has been in the Lion Fortress for less than 1 month, he has just killed an ox-head demon knight a few days ago!" Zhou Shufan said calmly .
All the others gleamed their eyes before moving their eyes away from Zhang Tie . . .
Mountain Lifting Hermit then moved his eyes away from all the other knights one after another before saying with absolute certainty, "Now that we've made a decision, we will set off at 9 pm tomorrow . . . "
