"Beast!"

Hearing the words of Marlowe Knight, Zhang Feng was startled.

Ever since he came to Hongye City, Zhang Feng had heard people say that Hongye City used to be attacked by wild beasts in the Blackstone Forest. If the previous city lord hadn't spent a lot of gold coins to build a city wall with blackstones in the north of the city, Hongye City would definitely not be what it is now. so complete.

Although there is this city wall now, the existence of the beast is still a potential danger after all. Zhang Feng has never forgotten it. Now that he heard the news of the beast again, Zhang Feng said with a serious face:

"What is the specific situation?"

Caroline also listened carefully. She came to Hongye City earlier than Zhang Feng, and she was more aware of the harm that wild beasts could bring.

"This morning, our soldiers found several piles of animal excrement under the city wall. It is preliminarily speculated that it should be a leopard or wolf. There are also traces of scratching with sharp claws at the base of the city wall."

Marlowe answered somewhat cautiously.

"Leopard? Wolf?"

"Yes."

Zhang Feng sucked his teeth. Although he had seen leopards and wolves in the zoo, he would not naively think that the animals in the zoo were the same as those in the mountains.

Especially wolves, which are in packs. If you find a wolf, there may be a pack of wolves nearby!

Marlowe Knight is naturally not afraid, after all he has a thick stainless steel armor and a sharp stainless steel long sword, but the commoners of Red Leaf City are different.

Even Zhang Feng himself was a little timid.

"It stands to reason that beasts will not come to the place where humans live..."

Zhang Feng frowned. Although he didn't know much about wild animals, he was also a man who had seen the animal world, so he understood some common sense things.

For example, humans may be afraid of wild beasts, but wild beasts are also afraid of humans. Under normal circumstances, wild beasts will not take the initiative to approach humans, especially in places where many people gather.

Could it be that the beasts of this world are bold?

Zhang Feng is a little uncertain, after all, these are two similar but different worlds, everything is possible.

"Are the residents of our Red Leaf City in danger?"

"I'm not sure. Although we have a city wall made of black stone, the other three walls are low-rise earthen walls. If the beasts are smarter or there are more beasts, Hongye City will still be a bit dangerous."

Listening to Marlowe's words, Zhang Feng felt a sense of urgency in his heart, it was time to get the cement out.

Industrial cement production is more troublesome, but Zhang Feng still knows how to make earthen cement.

After all, when I was in the orphanage, some potholes inside and outside the yard were filled with soil and cement by the dean and the others. Although it was not very beautiful, it was very practical.

Limestone and clay are ground into flour, and then calcined into clinker. Clinker is ground together with the slag left over from ironmaking to produce cement.

What is missing at present is limestone, and limestone is the trade name of limestone as a mineral raw material. In Bluestar, limestone is widely used due to its wide distribution in nature and easy acquisition.

Zhang Feng estimated that there should be limestone in this world.

I heard that there are many stones in the Black Stone Forest. According to the knowledge from high school textbooks, Zhang Feng remembered that the limestone area is mostly stone forests and caves.

But now there is a very important question. Maybe there are things you want in the Black Stone Forest, but there are also beasts in the Black Stone Forest!

Especially since these wild beasts have already run to the vicinity of Hongye City, isn't it a bit wrong to go to Blackstone Forest now?

But if you don't go, you can't make cement anymore.

If you use stones to make the city wall, it's not that you can't, but it's too much manpower and material resources, and you don't have enough time.

"Knight Marlowe, if I go to Blackstone Forest now, will I be in danger?"

"what?"

"Can't!"

Marlowe was stunned.

Caroline, who had been silent on the sidelines, stopped her loudly.

Seeing Marlowe and Zhang Feng looking at her, Caroline didn't care about being shy, and said quickly:

"There are many beasts in the Blackstone Forest. It will be very dangerous if you go there. You forgot Charles... I don't recommend you go to the Blackstone Forest yourself!"

Charles, the former city lord, died in the Blackstone Forest. Although Caroline was responsible for his actions, the danger of the Blackstone Forest cannot be denied.

"Yes, Lord City Master, I think it's better for you to stay in the castle. If you have any orders, just leave them to me!"

Marlowe tapped on his steel armor, making a clanging sound.

Am I being treated as a weak chicken?

Zhang Feng was speechless, but when he thought about it, he seemed to be right. Whether it was Marlowe or Caroline, they were all knights, and their physical fitness alone was far beyond his ability, let alone their fighting skills.

But you can't do it yourself! There are many things that only he knows, and this is a different world after all, what if there is any accidental discovery.

Zhang Feng touched his chin, and then spoke under the concerned eyes of the two.

"I have to go, Knight Marlowe, just find a few soldiers to protect me. Let's just wander around the periphery of the Blackstone Forest and not go in deep."

"……Yes!"

It was Marlowe's duty to propose to the Lord, but when the Lord made up his mind to implement it, Marlowe had to obey unconditionally, which was also his duty.

"Master Zhang Feng, I want to follow you too!"

Caroline was still a little worried about Zhang Feng. Even with the protection of soldiers and knights, she was still worried. After all, it was not the past. The beasts had all left the Black Stone Forest, and no one knew what was going on in the Black Stone Forest.

"You can not!"

However, Zhang Feng refused without even thinking about it. After all, Caroline had worked all night yesterday and she couldn't be troubled anymore. She is Zhang Feng's woman, and Zhang Feng will feel distressed.

"I can!"

However, Caroline was not as docile as before this time, she looked at Zhang Feng firmly.

Zhang Feng also looked at her.

The eyes of the two did not give way.

Marlowe lowered his eyes, as if he didn't see it.

After a while.

Facing Caroline, who had pitiful eyes, but did not give in at all, Zhang Feng was a little helpless. She held Caroline's cold little hand.

"Okay, okay, let's go together!"

Caroline breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Zhang Feng agreed, and she quickly promised:

"Master Zhang Feng, I will protect you!"

Zhang Feng pinched his face, smiled and didn't say much.

Since the city lord was out and the target was still the Blackstone Forest, Marlowe naturally needed to call the soldiers to prepare. Zhang Feng and Caroline returned to the castle first.

Caroline changed into a knight's attire, and a gorgeous silver armor made Caroline look heroic. This style of Caroline made Zhang Feng's eyes shine, and he felt the pleasure of unlocking a new skin.

But now is not the time to think about those things, Zhang Feng leaned over and explained in a low voice:

"Caroline, if you are really in danger of life and death, you don't have to worry about me, just run away by yourself."

"Do not--"

As soon as Caroline opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Zhang Feng, who said seriously:

"I said before that if there is a fatal danger, I am 100% sure to escape. Do you not believe me?"

"I... I believe in you!"

"That's good, mark my words."

Zhang Feng pinched Caroline's cheek.

"Um!"

Knight Marlow came to the castle again.

"My lord, the soldiers have assembled and are waiting in line at the north gate."

"it is good."

Zhang Feng was wearing a relatively thin suit, not that he didn't want to wear armor, but that he could wear those armors, but he couldn't walk when he put them on, it was too heavy!

A group of people came to the North City Gate, and a row of heavily armed soldiers was waiting.

It is said to be a city gate, but it is not grand at all. It does not feel as grand as the gate of the orphanage, but the black city wall next to it still made Zhang Feng take a few more glances.

"My lord, this is the scratch of the beast last night."

Knight Marlowe pointed to a corner of the wall.

Zhang Feng followed Marlowe's gaze and was suddenly taken aback.

"what?"
