However, Zhang Tie didn't feel anything about this golden period. Like how fish in the sea didn't care about the weather above their heads, Zhang Tie didn't care about the increasing heat airflow below him either. No matter when, Zhang Tie felt that as long as he wanted to fly, he could keep flying with the help of various airflows. Unless the air in the sky was completely still, he would never worry about his flight.
Since he left the Idiots, Zhang Tie had been hovering in the sky like a hunting eagle for almost 4 hours. After deepening 200 miles into the right wing of Selnes Theater of Operations, Zhang Tie had already made a circle. During this circle, he had killed 34 wing demons.
Most of the 34 wing demons were in twos or threes. At the sight of Zhang Tie, they flew towards him without demur. Undoubtedly, they became Zhang Tie's targets. Within 200-400 m, wing demons' heads were blown up by Zhang Tie's palm bolts one after another. Closely after that, their corpses fell off the sky.
Zhang Tie met 11 wing demons at most 1 hour ago. When Zhang Tie saw dense smoke rising into the sky from the ground in the distance, he flew towards that place. He saw over 10 airships being besieged by a group of wing demons. On the ground, tens of thousands of human troops were fighting demonized puppets with the coordination of armored vehicles. The two parties were in a fierce battle. The airships were responsible for air strikes against demonized puppets. However, the human airships were busy defending themselves against the wing demons.
At that moment, a human airship had been shot down by wing demons and destroyed. All the other airships were struggling to retreat towards the south while being chased by wing demons. Those gliders on the airships seemed to have been killed by wing demons.
Closely after that, Zhang Tie appeared by glider. Only after circling around the human airship troop for one round, he had killed 10 wing demons in less than 2 minutes. The last wing demon was still fighting Zhang Tie. The last wing demon was chasing after Zhang Tie in the air.
It was a LV 10 wing demon. The LV 9 wing demon's weapon was two slender spikes while the LV 10 wing demon was holding a fork. LV 10 wing demon was much larger than the LV 9 wing demon in size. Additionally, it was more flexible in the air. Its flight speed and response were much greater than that of the LV 10 wing demon.
It was Zhang Tie's first time to meet a LV 10 wing demon in the air. Within 100 m, Zhang Tie's 3 palm bolts were all blocked by the wing demon's weapon. The LV 10 wing demon was driven mad as it croaked and flew towards Zhang Tie while brandishing its weapon. Zhang Tie could only fight it in the air by glider.
As for Zhang Tie, palm bolts were like a miniature javelin. Compared to being easy to carry and release, palm bolts had a weakness due to their small size and weight. Based on the battle strength of LV 10 wing demons, although they couldn't move faster than palm bolts in the air, they could still knock away Zhang Tie's palm bolts with their weapons. As a result, Zhang Tie's palm bolts lost their effect.
After chasing each other for half an hour, the two parties had been over 60 miles away from the battlefield. Meanwhile, the battle had reached over 7,000 m high in the air from over 1,000 m. After reaching this height, Zhang Tie changed his strategy. He didn't aim at the LV 10 wing demon's head and torso anymore; instead, he aimed at the wing demon's 4-5 m long wings.
Finally, after the LV 10 wing demon knocked away Zhang Tie's two palm bolts, Zhang Tie's palm bolt penetrated through the wing demon's thin fleshy wing like a bat.
With a sound of "Puff...", the palm bolt penetrated through the wing demon's wing like breaking a balloon, which became the turning point of this battle.
After having one more hole on its wing, the wing demon's fleshy wing started to leak air. As a result, its flight speed and flexibility in the air were greatly reduced. Therefore, the wing demon shrieked.
After finding the unfavorable situation, the LV 10 wing demon hurriedly flew downwards. However, how could Zhang Tie let go of such a chance?
After dozens of seconds, with another sound of "Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff...", Zhang Tie opened another 4 holes on the same wing of the wing demon.
One wing was intact; however, the other wing was like a sieve. This time, the wing demon couldn't keep its balance in the air anymore. Therefore, it struggled and fell off the sky.
In this case, Zhang Tie released the last palm bolt from the back of the wing demon's head, blowing up its head and ending this battle.
Although the battle had come to an end, Zhang Tie still felt cold sweat all over his forehead. Thankfully, he only met one LV 10 wing demon. If he met two LV 10 wing demons at the same time, he would be the one who fell off the sky.
Zhang Tie felt lucky about his vigilance inside. Thankfully, he didn't rush towards the demons' region. If he met 2 wing demons above LV 10 in the demons' region, he would not be able to return to the outside world.
After killing this LV 10 wing demon, it was already 2 pm. In the rising steam, Zhang Tie adjusted the direction of the glider. After reaching about 10,000 m high, he flew towards the west of Selnes Plain, namely the left wing of the human defense line.
The airship troop of Jinyun Country under the command of Lan Yunxi was in the west of Selnes Plain. Zhang Tie wanted to check the situation over there. If possible, he could relieve the stress of wing demons on the airship troop over there.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was a bit hungry. He didn't eat anything else; instead, he directly took out some all-purpose medicament from Castle of Black Iron and poured it into his stomach.
The all-purpose medicament was swallowed. After drinking the all-purpose medicament, Zhang Tie felt being 100 times more spirited and full of strength.
On the way, Zhang Tie met another 7 wing demons. The 7 wing demons increased Zhang Tie's military exploits to 41.
The closer he was to the west, the more airships he saw in the sky. He even met a lot of gliders which were responsible for reconnaissance. Many pilots of those gliders also noticed Zhang Tie; however, they didn't care about him at all. As there were too many gliders on the left wing of Selnes Theater of Operations, all of them were released by airships. As long as they didn't meet wing demons, nobody would care about them.
After seeing so many gliders, Zhang Tie also saw other types of gliders. Some gliders were larger in size. They carried not one, but two, even three people. Under the threat of wing demons, all the other people on the glider were operating weapons such as crossbows. Under the threat of wing demons, human troops were constantly adjusting and improving their coping abilities.
If the south line of Selnes Theater of Operations was relatively tranquil, the war in the west line had been in full swing. A corps on the right wing of the theater of operations was preparing to recapture a very important city in the west of Selnes Plain — — Flatte with the coordination of a large-scale airship troop and ground armored troop.
Flatte was only over 270 km away from the core city of Moge on the left wing of the human defense line. It used to be the most important industrial city of Titanic Duchy on Selnes Plain. However, at this moment, this city had been occupied by a demonized puppets corps. After being occupied by the demonized puppets corps, Flatte was like a sharp ram. The strength of the demonized puppets corps extended from the north to the middle and south of Selnes Plain, which made the allied forces of Blackson Humans Corridor sleepless.
After a long and thorough preparation, the allied human forces finally launched a large-scale battle to recapture Flatte City on the left defense line last week. Over 1 million human soldiers joined the battle, including the airship troop of Jinyun Country.
At this moment, the land within 2,000 square kilometers of Flatte City had turned into a huge battlefield. From the ground to the sky, countless people were spilling blood at every moment.
Zhang Tie who had just tried his best in the right wing of the human defense line also drove his glider into this battlefield.
…
5 days later, when the sun was going to set, the airship base of Crystal Battle Fortress? The sentry caught sight of something flying towards the landing field of the airship base in the sunset.
The sun that was about to set was right behind that thing. Under the fiery red sunset, the outline of the thing flying with the sun on its back was a little blurry and distorted in the telescope, but one could barely make out the shape of two wings.
Wing Demon? The lookout post almost sounded the air raid alarm. Fortunately, it was there. Before the lookout sounded the air raid alarm, the reflection of the metal on the thing's body made it so that it could not be seen clearly. The lookout stopped what he was doing at once.
As that thing gradually approached, it swayed in the air like being drunk. However, Zhang Tie could see clearly that it was a glider.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem The glider landed on a piece of flat grassland outside the airport. However, nobody got off it. When a lot of ground crew and all the crew members of the Idiots rushed to the front of the glider, they were all stunned.
None of the ground crew had seen such a glider before...
The metal shell of the glider was covered with shocking scars. However, what was more puzzling than those scars was the large area of blood stains from the nose to the wings and the body of the glider. The entire body of the glider had been dyed a different color by the blood stains.
It was not a glider, but a battle armor after a bloody battle...
Some crystal covers in the cockpit of the glider had been completely broken. A pale golden, twisted and grim steel fork broke through the crystal cover on one side of the cockpit and inserted into the cockpit.
In the cockpit, a person was sitting in the glider silently while his right shoulder was nailed to the seat by that grim steel fork. Half of his body had been dyed red by blood...
"Captain..." All the crew of the Idiots charged at him at once...
"Hurry, send him to Crystal Battle Fortress..." A captain who was responsible for ground crew roared with bloody eyes...
