Chapter 1288: Tracing
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
Under the guidance of the small titmouse, Zhang Tie had another discovery over 100 m away...
That was a patch of ground whose color looked a bit deeper than the surrounding land. Right here, Zhang Tie sniffed a faintly bloody and stinky smell. Some small pieces of camouflage cloth scattered over 20 square meters while a cluster of ants was busy carrying fine flesh and bones into their own nests...
At the sight of such a spot, Zhang Tie circled around this place for a short while. After that, he stood somewhere as he made a hand gesture; at the same time, a scene occurred to his mind——a field scout who was sucking syrup in this maple woods suddenly found an enemy. As the enemy was much more powerful than him, he determined to escape right away; pitifully, when he arrived here, he had been caught up by that field scout. Only with one punch, the enemy had completely shattered the human field scout’s body into blood foam, spraying over the ground in terms of a fan shape and became the food of the ants...
Along the direction of the fan shape, Zhang Tie found a distorted scout’s matt longsword.
Zhang Tie picked the longsword and looked at it carefully. He didn’t find any breach on the blade. Zhang Tie guessed that it should be bounced back by at least an earth knight’s protective battle qi.
A brave Hua fighter then sacrificed in this maple woods of Helan Mountain Range quietly, leaving not even a complete corpse or a name, except for that distorted longsword, which indicated the decisiveness of this fighter before his death.
Being not far away from where the field scout fought to death, Zhang Tie found another two shattered bodies of field scouts, a broken remote-sensing communications device and some equipment.
The 3 field scouts could form a group in the army of Taixia Country. Now that a group of 3 field scouts died so miserably here, it could be imagined that there must be more casualties in this maple woods.
When field scouts were taking actions or executing missions, they could not gain the supply from the base; especially in the Helan Mountain Range, they had to be self-sufficient. In this case, syrup would be the best supply for field scouts. If demon knights knew this law, they only needed to wait here for groups of Hua field scouts.
The earth human knight who was responsible for patrolling this region probably had been killed. Among the demons in this region, there should be at least one top earth demon knight.
Zhang Tie’s eyes gave out an aggressive light as he licked his lips with a faintly grim smile...
Although the other humans might feel that demon knights were terrifying and tricky; as for Zhang Tie, the more, the better. Even the war between demon and humans in the west border of Taixia Country had turned white-hot, knights were minorities among humans and demons respectively. Over the past 2 months, Zhang Tie had been longing for demon knights so much. Besides the first black iron wing demon knights that Zhang Tie met here on the first day, Zhang Tie only killed 3 more black iron wing demon knights who intended to slide into Huanzhou Province from Helan Mountain stealthily. As for Zhang Tie, the 4 wing demon knights were just like kittens or puppies. The more, the better.
Even Zhang Tie could only meet 4 black iron wing demon knights; not to mention the other human earth knight scouts. If they were unfortunate, such as that missing one, they might meet a powerful opponent.
If not shoulder such a heavy responsibility, Zhang Tie even wanted to hunt demon knights in the frontline or the areas which had been occupied by demons.
Out of his imagination, Zhang Tie could meet a big fish over here.
The titmouse kept hovering beside Zhang Tie. After Zhang Tie checked these traces, he directly followed the titmouse deep into maple woods. However, only after flying over 200 m away, that titmouse had started to hover beside Zhang Tie once again.
Zhang Tie took out some food and fed the titmouse before having it leave.
After the titmouse flew away, Zhang Tie made another hand gesture. Only after a few seconds, a grey fox had run over here as he continued to lead Zhang Tie towards the depth of the maple woods.
Over 15 miles away, the grey fox got its reward and left jubilantly while a uang continued to lead Zhang Tie into the depth of the maple woods...
After the uang, two boars continued to guide Zhang Tie. After that an owl guided him...
The demon knights in this woods might not know the outcome of being hostile to an inheritor of “Great Wilderness Sutra” in a vigorous mountain area where lived various animals. They were actually hostile to the whole world; instead of one person...
...
On the way, Zhang Tie found some more corpses of human fighters...
2 hours later, at the entrance of a mountain cave in the depth of this maple woods, a mutated viper moved around Zhang Tie for a couple of times...
Zhang Tie stretched out his hand and stroked the head of the viper. After that, he directly poured some all-purpose medicament into the stomach of the mutated viper which was preparing for hibernation. The viper stuck out its tongue and licked Zhang Tie’s palm before drilling into the weeds a few meters away by twisting its body.
Zhang Tie took at look at this mountain cave for a short while before walking inside quietly.
In this mountain area covering hundreds of thousands of square miles, there were at least 1,000 such kinds of mountain caves. Some mountain caves were shallow as they were on the mountainside. Zhang Tie could see through such mountain caves easily with lotus-flower eyes; some mountain caves were dozens even hundreds of miles deep which contained numerous bypasses and gaps like Dragon Cave in Hidden Dragon Island. Even though Zhang Tie had lotus-flower eyes, he could not see through such mountain caves.
Undoubtedly, this mountain cave belonged to the latter type.
The inside of the mountain cave was gloomy and dark. Only after entering it for less than 100 m, it had been completely dark. Additionally, over 100,000 bats were living inside. Bats’ feces had been thick in the mountain cave. Of course, Zhang Tie’s arrival didn’t shock those bats. Instead, after communicating with these bats, Zhang Tie got a more useful intelligence from these bats——2 days ago, 8 wing demons and a human like him flew into the mountain cave together...
