Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 957: Turn Grass Into Spears

Two days later, Yedega was in sight.

Yedega was the main city of the Iron Spear Territory. Originally, there was no prefix for Spear City. Only when Hoey continued his title and earned the title of Marquis of Strength did Yedega have the nickname of Spear City. After leaving Hoey, who was the overlord of guns, the large and small iron shops in Yedega used to only forge battle spears for a period of time without asking about anything else. In the city, from the noble clans to the plain-clothed soldiers, they liked to play with long spears. For a time, there were more than ten thousand spears in the city, and the name of Spear City was just like that.

This disturbance that made Hoey unable to laugh or cry could only be suppressed by his order, but the name of Spear City was passed down like this. Even though the iron shops in the city were also forging other weapons, none of them dared to call themselves blacksmiths of Spear City unless they had a few good guns stuck in front of them.

Alan drove the car and became a coachman. This made the real coachman sitting beside him sweat. This made the viscount ride the horse personally. It was both new and respectful to him, but Alan was chatting with him word by word.

Alan didn't ask him any more questions just because he could tell that the coachman was nervous, so he wouldn't have to worry too much. Allen raised his eyes and looked into the distance. Spear City was built on a fertile plain, with its back against a continuous mountain range. It was not like the mountain city was built on a mountain, but it was located at the foot of the mountain. Yedega was the main city of Iron Spear Ridge. The city was a bit larger than Ark Harbor. The population of the city was close to 100,000, so it could be considered a relatively large city in the south.

Of course, it wasn't comparable to a super city like the Imperial Hall, but it was the largest city that Allen had seen so far.

From afar, the defensive wall of Spear City was lying on the plains. There were always three walls of Yedega, which gradually grew higher and higher, and the tallest third wall was twenty meters tall. The three defensive walls could be said to be heavily defended. Moreover, the cannons on the third wall weren't decorative. Alan estimated that with the height of the wall and the distance between the cannons. The open space within a thousand meters of Spear City was within the range of the cannons' firepower.

Judging from the Empire's normal siege example, it was not easy to take down a city like Yedega. But for Allen, as long as the secret production lines of the two chariots worked and he had more than ten main war chariots, it would only be a battle to break through Yedga. It could be imagined that when the war chariot in Allen's hand appeared, it would cause a huge impact on the empire.

Outside Spear City, there were fertile fields, and the weather was getting warmer and warmer. At this moment, farmers were reclaiming land and sowing seeds in the wilderness. Cow cries could be heard everywhere. Seeing Orlando's team, many children dragged adults away from their cattle and ran to both sides of the road to watch. Orlando waved his hand to the citizens on horseback, and there were even more children chasing after them. Alan handed over the driver's work to the coachman, got into the car and took out some candy pastries, which immediately attracted a group of children.

In just a few seconds, Allen only had a naked plate left in his hand. The children who got the candy scattered and laughed, causing Allen to chuckle.

At this moment, the convoy suddenly stopped, and Alan felt a special aura. Putting down the plate, he jumped out of the carriage. At the front of the line, there was a person blocking the way. He was an old man. But when he got older, the old man's back was still as stiff as a javelin, so Alan knew who that person was.

Iron Spear Hoey!

"Sir Alan!" Hoey exhaled.

Alan quickly agreed, "Greetings, Marquis Hoey."

Hoey nodded expressionlessly and Orlando scratched his head. He jumped off his horse and ran to Hoey, "Father, why are you here?"

Even if it was to welcome the troops, Hoey should still be standing in front of the City Lord's Mansion, far from being outside of Yedega City. Not to mention that he was single and blocked the way, and his aura was hidden, so it wasn't as simple as welcoming the team. "It's none of your business," said Hoey coolly. "Get out of the way."

Orlando wanted to say something else, but Hoey suddenly reached out and waved his hand. Orlando felt an invisible wall of air coming towards him, forcefully pushing him ten meters away. "Old man, what the hell are you doing?" Orlando shouted angrily.

Hoey turned around and smiled at his son. Looking at his father's smile, Orlando immediately fell silent. As a son, how could he not know that Hoey usually had a stern face, and if he suddenly smiled at you, it would usually not be a good thing.

"Sir Alan, I heard you're going north?" Hoey ignored his son and asked Alan.

"That's right."

'"Alright then. Today, Hoey will act as an obstacle stone and claim that you don't have the weight to head north. If you don't, then you should take advantage of this opportunity to return. Be at ease as your viscount. Hoey will protect you for the rest of your life."

Orlando couldn't help but shout, "Old man, he's a guest! Is there anyone who treats guests like this?"

"Regardless of the outcome, Hoey should apologize to Sir Alan afterwards, so shut up." Hoey said in a deep voice.

Alan smiled and said, "I can't afford to be the Marquis to apologize. Let me apologize to Sir Hoey." He reached into the carriage and Laura handed him Red King. Hoey narrowed his eyes. He naturally understood what Allen meant. It meant that Hoey could not stop him, so he should apologize to Allen who had offended the Marquis afterwards.

Arrogant? Alan's tone was calm, as if he could not be said to be speaking. Confident? Perhaps no one had the confidence to win against an expert who had been the number one person in the Southern Region for twenty years. The corner of Hoey's mouth curved upwards. If he hadn't heard that Fire Demon Gable hadn't even managed to survive a single blow from this young viscount, Hoey would have stood in front of the City Lord's Mansion to welcome the arrival of this group.

Now it was another matter.

After all, very few people had been able to arouse his interest in the past few years. Once the viscount went north, he, Hoey, would miss this opportunity. It was better to try the other party now. If this young man could not pass his trial, it would be a good thing for him to return to his territory. At the very least, if Alan were allowed to break through, he would be generous enough to give this young man such a great reputation.

If he knew that even Hoey couldn't stop him, why would those people who wanted to get Allen's idea weigh themselves?

Hoey raised his hand, the wind and clouds surging. The long grass on both sides of the road that hadn't been removed soared into the sky and circled above Hoey's head like clouds under the influence of an invisible force field. Hoey grabbed it with his five fingers and the grass cloud descended. The long grass swirled around and formed a spear made of the grass in Hoey's hand.

Hoey's Blue Lightning Spear was still on Orlando's horse, but no one dared to ignore the grass spear in the Marquis's hand.

There's no other reason.

Just because it was in Hoey's hands was such a simple principle!
