Chapter 627: An Encounter
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
When he returned to Mocco City once again, Zhang Tie sensed the intense and grim atmosphere which was enshrouding this city. The human defense line and works outside the city were crowded with discomfited human fighters; many broken armored vehicles and tanks were abandoned in the wild. So turrets and boilers which could still run were buried beneath the earth, only exposing their batteries.
Until then did Zhang Tie realize that Volvo City had collapsed two months ago, the allied human forces only controlled Mocco City and Sladic City while the ground connection between the two cities had been cut off by the demonized puppets corps.
In the recent two months, the allied human forces had been thinking about breaking through the connection between Mocco City and Sladic City. The remnants of the allied armored units then beca the main force to combat demonized puppets corps. After losing their fuel and material supply in the latest move, the No. 107 Heavy Armored Regint of Iron Plough Corps suffered a great loss. As a result, the regintal commander had to lead all the fighters of the entire Armored Regint to climb out of armored vehicles and evacuated back to Mocco City on foot. Nevertheless, they were caught up by a demonized puppets troop and could almost be completely annihilated.
In such a case, the armored units had two choices: to stay in armored vehicles for rescue; to escape out of there by foot. However, as Selnes was becoming worse while more and more demonized puppets were wandering outside the city. As for an armored regint being trapped in the wild, they might never see the reinforcents coming. Even though the reinforcents arrived, they had to sacrifice many tis more fighters to save the armored units out of there.
In such a case, especially when the armored troop was surrounded by the demonized puppets in the wild after losing power and suffering chanical obstacles, those armored soldiers preferred to commit a suicide or starve to death than coming out of there to be eaten by the demonized puppets.
This was the most tragic page of Selnes Theater of Operations.
The No. 107 Heavy Armored Regint of Iron Plough Corps were fortunate. When their armored vehicles broke down, those demonized puppets had not caught up with them; however, when those demonized puppets caught up with them, they were saved by Zhang Tie.
After being frad by Senel Clan, Zhang Tie didn’t know whether he was a hero or a traitor in Selnes Theater of Operations. Because his status was sensitive to the public, Zhang Tie didn’t inquire too much about Jinyun Country and the Crystal Battle Fortress lest others’ suspicion. Through the regintal commander, Zhang Tie knew that Jinyun Country’s troop had evacuated due to so reason after Volvo City was collapsed. Additionally, there was no news that the commission officer of the airship troop of Jinyun Country died or had any trouble in the past months. Therefore, Zhang Tie beca reassured.
After entering Mocco City successfully, Zhang Tie separated from those armored units.
...
"When you see Reinhardt, tell him that the guy who smoked his cigar in Mocco City last ti had co back. I will live in the place where he invited to drink that day. I might stay in Mocco City a couple of days!"
"No problem!" That regintal commander nodded.
Zhang Tie waved his hands towards those fighters of the No. 107 Heavy Armored Regint before turning back and disappearing in the pitch-dark street...
Zhang Tie didn’t tell them his na.
...
In the evening, the Mocco City looked a bit frustrated. As a human city in Selnes Theater of Operations, everything about the allied human forces would be expressed in this city. Any victory in the frontline would make this city brilliant while any failure in the frontline would make this city depressed and grim. When this city beca the defense frontline and might be collapsed by demons at any ti, it was terrifying all over besides deep depression. Zhang Tie saw many human fighters sitting on the roadsides as drunk as fiddler and watching the sky with a vacant look...
Previously, in such a case, urban gendars would at least drag those drunk soldiers away; however, at this mont, the gendars might have disappeared or just ignored them.
With his mory, Zhang Tie wandered through the dim streets and alleys. It took him only a bit longer than 20 minutes to co to the Demon Hunters Bar in Mocco City.
Besides hiding the largest illegal market across Selnes Theater of Operations, this Demon Hunters Bar was also the most inford place in this city.
Zhang Tie’s strange and powerful qi was familiar to those guards outside the door of the bar. Zhang Tie even slt bloody, which was even more useful than any certificate. The guards threw a glance at Zhang Tie and sniffed before opening the door for Zhang Tie.
The mont Zhang Tie entered had he felt abnormal inside. A woman in black robe was sitting at the bar counter and drinking alone. She looked narcissistic. She was alone near the counter while the others stayed far away from her and sat at those tables around the bar counter. Although so tables looked evidently crowded, nobody would like to sit at the table, even though so stools were still available at the bar counter.
Under the gaze of everyone else, Zhang Tie ca to the side of the bar counter and sat beside the woman as he waved his hand towards the bartender.
"Give a cup of drink!"
"What do you want to drink?" The bartender walked over and asked him in a low voice.
Zhang Tie found the bartender’s face looked a bit pale, which might be because of over panic. His smile even looked embarrassed.
"Whatever!" Zhang Tie glanced at the gradevin behind the bartender and found the kinds of drinks inside the gradevin had decreased a lot. It seed that this place had started to run out of materials.
"Try this. This is the best beer from Norman Empire. I’m sure that you’ve not drunk it before. This beer is called Iron-blood Lover!" The bartender faintly recovered his look when he talked about the beer. At the sa ti, she made a cup of beer from the beer barrel behind the counter rapidly.
’Iron-blood Lover?’ Zhang Tie felt like vomiting after hearing this na, ’Why does a beer have such a literary na? Whatever, it’s none of my business. I’m here for a drink.’ Watching the bartender serving him a big glass of beer, Zhang Tie imdiately took it up and had a mouth of drink. He was stunned at once.
"How about it?" The bartender asked Zhang Tie hopefully.
Zhang Tie had nurous feelings about the taste of the beer. After a second, Zhang Tie asked slowly, "You an this beer cos from Norman Empire?"
"Yup, this beer is exclusively supplied for the trump-card troop of Norman Empire in the frontline. I dare say you can not find a better beer across Blackson Humans Corridor. I was told this beer also had so marvelous effects. With it, the frontline fighters could better maintain their physical strength. If they had so small wounds, they could heal them soon by drinking this beer!"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile as Hanna’s face and the absurd and happy plots between him and Hanna flashed across his mind, ’Iron-blood Lover, Iron-blood Camp Lover, doesn’t it refer to ? It turns out that even though Hanna has gotten married, she’s still authoritative on the side of her original family; otherwise, they would not na the beer in this way.’
"One more Iron-blood Lover!"
After hearing the hoarse and slightly attractive voice of the woman on his side, Zhang Tie turned around as he noticed that the woman was also drinking a big glass of beer; after drinking it up, she pushed the glass towards the bartender.
Judging from her side, she was a top beauty; additionally, she might be a Chinese of mixed parentage. Black hair and clear-cut facial features made her especially charming and impressive.
The woman looked very icy. Even though she knew that Zhang Tie was staring at her, she still didn’t throw a glance at Zhang Tie. She looked very arrogant. When Zhang Tie stared at her hands, he found she was wearing a pair of semi-transparent gloves. If not the golden plum blossoms embroidered on the gloves, he almost could not identify that they were female gloves.
After realizing that Zhang Tie was staring at her gloves, that woman threw a glance at Zhang Tie. When she saw the huge shell-sized equipnt on Zhang Tie’s back, a light flashed across the woman’s eyes, which could not be easily observed by others.
The bartender filled the glass ticulously and pushed it back to the woman. The woman took up the glass and started to sip it slowly. As Zhang Tie was thinking about his next step, he didn’t feel like accosting her. Therefore, after the woman finished her beer, she dropped so gold coins and left before throwing another glance at Zhang Tie.
Until the woman left did the weird atmosphere in the bar relieve a bit. So n who were crowding at the tables then dared sit at the bar counter; however, nobody dared sit where the woman had sat before.
"Brother, you’re audacious. Well done! You dared even sit beside that woman!" A whiskered tough man sat beside Zhang Tie and thumbed up towards him.
"Ah? Is that strange?" Zhang Tie blinked his eyes.
"Do you know who’s that woman?"
"Who’s her?"
"Tirsiris. Don’t you know her? Although she had been here only a few tis, many guys who wanted to accost her had been killed out of no reason!"
’Tirsiris——Selnes Snake? The terrifying voodoo pharmacist?’ Zhang Tie beca faintly shocked as he had not imagined that he could et that woman here, ’It’s nothing strange. I, the Selnes Eagle could be here, then why couldn’t she co here?’
Soon after Zhang Tie drunk two glasses of beer had Reinhardt arrived...
