Duhaer Avenue was a common street in the west of Eschyle City. The signboards on both sides of the street were small commercial firms. Both sides of the street were low-rise buildings of 4-5 floors.
Many of the gates of the commercial firms downstairs had been broken open. There were over 100 corpses on Duhaer Avenue, covering the ground with blood.
When Zhang Tie and the others arrived here, they saw a group of demonized puppets squatting on the roadside and biting some corpses.
"Kill them!" Zhang Tie roared as he rushed forward.
After realizing that someone was rushing towards them, those demonized puppets raised their bloody faces from the incomplete corpses and rushed towards them with bloody eyes.
Roslav and Waajid were both LV 10 strong fighters. Besides Zhang Tie, all the others were above LV 7. Before those demonized puppets arrived at Zhang Tie, Roslav and Waajid had already rushed into the middle of demonized puppets. In the blink of an eye, they had killed a lot of demonized puppets.
Zhang Tie only had time to chop off the ugly heads of two demonized puppets with a common long sword before the battle came to an end.
Before the next batch of demonized puppets arrived here, the entire street became tranquil for the time being. Actually, it was very easy for Zhang Tie to deal with demonized puppets in Eschyle City in the beginning. It was far less than that in Heavens Cold City. If most of the people in Heavens Cold City became demonized puppets, it would be the real hell. In such a place, one had to be meticulous in each step. If Eschyle City was similar to Heavens Cold City, Zhang Tie would never dispatch Thor's Hammer here no matter how powerful it was. Facing millions of fearless demonized puppets, each step was blocked by dozens of meters thick flesh wall. In that case, it was nothing different than seeking for death if Zhang Tie dispatched troops in there.
Heavy snow fell from the sky. The white blood formed a sharp contrast with those scarlet or dark red patches on the street, causing a cruel coldness to reverberate in the air.
Zhang Tie rapidly jumped over the metal fence on the roadside and ran forward. As he ran, he turned his head to look at the sects and the names of the small businesses and shops on both sides of the street.
When No. 176, Duhaer Avenue appeared in front of Zhang Tie, his heart turned slightly cold. The gate here had already been smashed. There was some blood at the door. The broken glass splattered on the doorstep.
On the ruined door was a blue sign with the words "Ellemes Trading Company" written on it.
Zhang Tie rushed in, followed by his companions.
Behind a counter on the first floor of the trading firm was the corpse of a young man whose neck had been bitten off. The blood of the corpse had completely flowed onto the floor, dyeing it scarlet. Apart from that, there was no one else on the first floor of the trading firm. However, there were still loud noises coming from upstairs. Zhang Tie directly rushed up to the second floor.
The second floor was a warehouse. There were many goods inside. However, nobody was inside. Zhang Tie then rushed up to the third floor.
It was more chaotic on the third floor. The moment he rushed to the stairway, Zhang Tie had seen a demonized puppet twisting its body with an ax on its shoulder. It wanted to take the ax off its shoulder. However, as the ax seemed to be stuck in the bones of its shoulder and the handle of the ax was facing backward, the demonized puppet couldn't take the ax off its shoulder.
Seeing Zhang Tie rushing up, the demonized puppet became stunned for a second. Zhang Tie waved his sword, sending its head flying off.
After passing by two rooms on the second floor, Zhang Tie found the source of the sound. He saw 5 demonized puppets striking a metal door with axes and various tools crazily. They wanted to open the metal door. As they struck and destroyed the door, they uttered unpleasant shrieks.
On the other side of the metal door, every time the heavy axe chopped down, a child's terrified and suppressed sobbing could be heard.
Waajid rushed forward. In a split second, 5 heads flew off. Some headless corpses swayed on the ground before falling down. At the same time, the dense bloody smell started to spread in this narrow room.
Walking over there, Zhang Tie took a look at the metal door which had been deformed and exposed some steel bars which were connected to the wall. He then slightly shook his head, 'If I didn't come here, I really don't know how many more minutes this door could stand.'
Zhang Tie grabbed the frame of the metal gate by hands and exerted his brute force. With a sound of 'Huala', he directly broke the metal gate.
The moment the metal door fell, an axe slashed out from the inside of the door towards the outside.
"Stop, Iller, it's me!" Grabbing the handle of the axe, Zhang Tie pulled out the seemingly crazy guy behind the door.
This guy was a friend that Zhang Tie got acquainted with when he took Aurora, a small businessman in Eschyle City who specialized in trading foodstuffs and furs!
At this moment, Iller's face was pale while his eyes were bloody. There were some blood stains on his clothes. Given his red eyes, if he was encountered by the cavalries of Thor's Hammer on the street, he might be killed as a demonized puppet.
After being shaken by Zhang Tie for a short while, Iller instantly woke up. He glanced at the headless corpses on the ground before looking at Zhang Tie with widely opened eyes. He didn't believe what he saw.
"Peter..."
Zhang Tie threw a glance at that narrow room. At this moment, a 20-year old woman was hugging two kids tightly and crouching in a corner of the room out of fear.
Of the two children, one was older and the other was younger. The older one was a boy about five or six years old, and his face vaguely resembled Iller. The younger one was a 2-3 year old girl. The woman tightly hugged the two kids in her arms as she covered their eyes. It seemed that she didn't want them to see the scene of the door being broken.
There was a safe in this small room. At the sight of that safe, Zhang Tie had guessed that this room might be the financial office of this small business. As important items were placed inside, the door of this room was made of firm metal. When they encountered danger, Iller's family members hid here. Zhang Tie had not imagined that this room saved their lives.
"Hurry up, call your family members out. We have to leave here as soon as possible! "
"Ahh, Peter, why are you here? “
"It's a long story. Let's talk about it on the way!"
"Mace. Hurry up, come out. It's my friend! " Iller said as he turned around and ran back into that small room. After that, he hugged the little boy and covered the little boy's face in his arms. After that, he walked out with the woman called Mace.
"Iller, are they your kids and wife?"
"Yes!"
"After a while, we have to leave here. Women and kids might not be able to catch up with us. For the sake of safety, they could only be carried by others! "
"As long as you could take my little Kevin and Tess out of here, it would be fine. Iller and I can stay here. We will never be a burden to you... "After glancing at Zhang Tie and Roslav, Yeller's wife realized that these people should be powerful fighters. Therefore, she gritted her teeth and said very resolutely.
Zhang Tie was moved by the courage and maternal love that Ihler's woman showed at this moment. After hearing Mace's words, Ihler also nodded solemnly towards Zhang Tie.
At the critical moment, parents always left the hope of survival to their kids.
"Mom, don't leave me... wuwu..."
"Mom..."
Although the two children were held in the arms of Meyer and Matt and couldn't see anything outside, they could still hear what their parents were saying. When they heard their mother say those words, the two children cried and grabbed their parents with their hands.
Watching this scene, Zhang Tie took in a deep breath as he put one hand on Ihler's shoulder forcefully, "Ihler, do you believe in me?"
Iller nodded.
"I will definitely take your family out of here. You, your wife and your two kids will not be left behind!"
...
After a few minutes, Zhang Tie's three bodyguards rushed out of Iller's Mace Trading Company with the two kids and his wife on their backs. After that, they rushed towards the north gate along the path where they came from.
Because the scene outside was too scary, Iller's wife even found two handkerchiefs and covered the children's eyes, telling them not to open their eyes.
Even though they were carrying a person on their backs, the soldiers still ran very fast. They could reach 100 m in 8 seconds. Although Iller was young and healthy, he might have lit some surging points. However, at this moment, even though Iller had exerted his full efforts, he still could not catch up with the team after running over 500 m while gritting his teeth.
"Peter, you can leave... I..."
Before Iller finished his words, Zhang Tie, who had been paying attention to him, had directly grabbed him and carried him on his back as he started to run.
Zhang Tie's movement shocked all the guards on his side at first. Closely after that, everyone felt a fierce hot stream flowing into their blood vessels …
Roslav and Waajid hurriedly rushed to Zhang Tie's side. They wanted to say something; however, Zhang Tie just threw a glance at them. Closely after that, they didn't say anything.
Iller's tears dropped off at once...
Zhang Tie felt that it was what he should do in that situation to open the escape tunnel of Eschyle City with Thor's Hammer so that most of the people in this city could escape out of here.
However, Zhang Tie also felt that it was what he should do at this moment to escape out of here with his friend on his back.
When he rushed in with Thor's Hammer, Zhang Tie had thought about taking Iller out of there; however, he had denied it. At this moment, when he found that Iller's family members were safe and could hold on until he arrived, Zhang Tie felt pretty satisfied. 'Finally, I don't have any regret. '
Zhang Tie knew that he might not be able to save all of them; neither could he satisfy all of them. What he did was just to make himself feel reassured and have no regrets. As for what the other big figures would do in this situation, it was none of his business...
