The Dark King – Chapter 41

The passage

The nextat dawn everyone was up and ready outside the castle

There were dozens of horses outside the castle They belong to Black Horse breed which had a strong resistance to diseases and radiation

“Get ready,” said Peter He was already on top of a horse and he had the posture of a graceful knight

Dudian selected a black horse and jumped over to sit on it If it had been before the ‘God’s blessing’ injection he would have to use a ladder to climb the horse

“Let’s go!” Pete shouted when everyone was seated on horses His legs clinging to the belly of the horse, he was the first to move

Dudian, who pulled the reins, followed

Even though the horses had massive build and scary appearance, they were very obedient creatures by nature and it was very easy to control them

The streets were covered with fogCrisp sounds of horse gallops were heard as they h Under the leadershi+p of Peter, Dudian and other speed off towards the outer edge of the coue shadow of the giant wall far away in the horizon The outline was becoly clear as the distance covered was increased The giant wall see people an oppressive feeling

Outside the commercial district, sae undeveloped and desolate wasteland It was not suitable for cultivation or for people to settle

As they were passing by the desolate zone the black horses became restless As if they were excited and manic because of some unknown variable which ht ride, the hazy figure of the giant wall gradually cleared up in crowd’s vision The picture that they saas deeply imprinted in their hearts and minds

It was a very tall wall Alot, harder it got to grasp its height It alave the impression that it was built by Gods but no humans Dudian couldn’t differentiate the construction’s blocks, like it was a complete natural boulder that was put there to divide the world into two

This is … … the giant wall!

Including Dudian, everyone was shocked as they reached the giant wall The crowd felt like ants in coiant walls size

“Father …it’s too high!” Mason looked up His neck folded aliant wall

Zach stared authentic: “Did our ancestors build the giant wall? ”

Everyone was struck by this great and nificent project

Dudian knew very well that it would be an enoriant wall like this one Even in the old days, it would be extremely difficult to built it Countless amount of time, manpower and resources would be needed for the construction The outbreak of the disaster was sudden so there was no time to project and iine how the ones who survived the nuclear bo shower built such an incredible architectural miracle

“This is the sanctuary of our Silvian giants! Our ancestors and Gods caether to build it” There was a trace of pride in Peter’s eyes He turned and looked at the crowd, suys In about 100 meters ill reach the destination All of you should dismount and rope your mounts”

A heavy iron gate was opened by Peter while echoing squeaky sounds Peter’s arth was in an incoate There was a ladder leading to the underground below the gate

“Go in,” said Peter
