Chapter 1947: Finding His New Identity

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

On the evening of July 18th, the 932nd year of Black Iron Calendar, in the mountains 200 miles away in the east of Coldwater City, Hicks Peninsula…

With a wuthering sound, a bolt flew over a 50 m high red pine in a valley and struck the people in front of the team who were groping their way and advancing among the rocks on the hillside.

The bolt instantly penetrated through the soft armor in front of that man’s chest at lightning speed. Closely after that, the bolt ejected flames that covered that man…

Once being hit by such an inflammable bolt, nobody could survive.

The flames looked very eye-catching in the dark. It brightly lit the space over thousands of square meters in the valley.

The team being raided only had four people. When the one in front of the team was struck, the remaining three people instantly made a response as they all charged at different directions so as to avoid being the second target. At the same time, one of the three people who was holding a metal crossbow had already triggered his string. With a buzz, three bolts instantly shot into the leaves of that red pine where the bolt came from in the shape of a triangle.

With a muffled sound, a black shadow fell to the ground heavily from the high red pine.

“Crewe…” With a low growl, seven fighters of Sacred Alliance Empire whose faces were covered with the tattoo of snake scales suddenly rushed out of bushes and darted towards the remaining three people whom they were ambushing.

Among the 7 people, at least 5 of them had released their battle qi and revealed their battle qi totems——two black spiders, one centipede, one king serpent and a huge bloody scorpion.

Crewe meant “kill” in the language of Sacred Alliance Empire.

“Holy Light remains forever…”

The three people who had just charged at different directions roared in unison. At the same time, they took out their weapons and released bloody battle qi. Closely after that, the three people rushed towards the seven people of the Sacred Alliance Empire at the same time.

The battle was short, fierce and bloody. It lasted less than two minutes. In the blood sprays, muffled sounds of being pierced through by sabers and swords and people’s growls, the team of three people instantly reduced to one people. By contrast, the team of seven fighters of Sacred Alliance Empire reduced to three people in the short period of time…

Finally, the one who had just fired three bolts in the team of three people stabbed his long sword into the heart of the most powerful bloody scorpion fighter in the team of Sacred Alliance Empire while being pierced through by three long swords. Closely after that, the two people rolled down the hillside and fell into the pitch-dark valley, leaving no sound anymore.

As a result, the team of seven people of the Sacred Alliance Empire was reduced to two people. The remaining two fighters didn’t waste time. They rapidly cut off the heads of two enemies. After that, they took a look at the deep valley and the steep cliff. After gabbling a few seconds, they soon disappeared in the dark, leaving blood and corpses on the hillside…

…

Ten minutes later, Zhang Tie, being invisible, arrived at the battlefield. After taking a look at those corpses and the blood stains on the ground, he flew into the deep valley along the steep hillside and cliff.

The two corpses in the valley had been badly mutilated and completely lost their qi. However, Zhang Tie could still identify the identities of the two people.

The fighter who perished together with that fighter of Sacred Alliance Empire was widening his eyes with fury until death. Meanwhile, his face was covered with bloodstains.

Zhang Tie reached out his hand and lightly helped him cover his eyes. After that, he put his hand on this fighter’s head. It took him less than half a minute to read all the memory of this fighter since he was born.

According to the secret skill of Bloody Soul Sutra, one’s memory could still be captured even if he had just died.

This fighter was indeed a LV 9member of Sword of Brilliance, the most elite legion in the Holy Light Empire. His name was Fred.

“From now on, I will live with your identity and name for a period of time as the return. I could help you get revenge. Let me bury you now…” Zhang Tie sighed as he took off the metal nameplate which was hung over the fighter’s neck. Then, he waved his hand and silently made a 2 m deep pit beside that fighter of Holy Light Empire. Zhang Tie then put the corpse of that Holy Light Empire into the pit before covering him with soil and stones. After that, he exited the “invisible” state.

At this moment, Zhang Tie was already as same as that late fighter of Holy Light Empire.

With a pair of black field boots, a leather belt, a sharp top-quality long sword, a short saber, a soft armor being close to his skin, a field leather waist container being exclusive to the legion Sword of Brilliance of Holy Light Empire, a field camouflage uniform and a standard color-changing field cloak, Zhang Tie was absolutely a member of legion Sword of Brilliance of Holy Light Empire.

Zhang Tie hung that nameplate over his own neck. After that, his body as a whole undulated like a ripple. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Tie had copied the look of Fred——over 20 years old, beige hair, light green eyeballs, flat nose, thin lips, fair fingers, prominent bone joints on his palms and a 3 cm long faint scar.

Fred was neither handsome nor ugly. He was just a common youth on the Western Continent. As a member of the legion Sword of Brilliance, he had experienced many things that outsiders didn’t know. Therefore, his face looked a bit grim and solemn.

Besides the face, Zhang Tie also imitated his secret method and level at the same time.

When Zhang Tie turned into Fred, he suddenly heard trotting sounds approaching him from afar. The remaining two fighters of Sacred Alliance Empire had already come to the valley from another gentle slope. They were running towards here. Soon after they negotiated a huge rock in the valley, they had caught sight of Zhang Tie.

There were moonlight and starlight tonight. Although this valley looked a bit dark, they could still see clearly everything within dozens of meters.

At the sight of Zhang Tie, the two fighters of Sacred Alliance Empire instantly became stunned for a couple of seconds as if they had seen a ghost.

The enemy who was pierced through by three swords and rolled down with their captain was standing right in front of them safe and sound. By contrast, their captain’s corpse was lying beside Zhang Tie.

As fighters had been familiar with many situations, they didn’t think too much on this occasion. They found that Zhang Tie just stood there still. Therefore, after being temporarily stunned, they roared, “Crewe..” in a low tone before brandishing their long swords and rushing towards Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie drew out the long sword from the sheath. Without using any powerful secret skill or battle skill, he charged at them like a tiger.

Zhang Tie waved his long sword, sending an enemy’s head flying in the air immediately. After that, he slightly avoided the attack of the other enemy and prodded the long sword forward, piercing through the second enemy’s chest. The battle soon came to an end.

After putting his long sword back into the sheath, Zhang Tie gropped over the two corpses for a short while. After taking two inflammable grenades, he took a glance at this place for the last time. Then, he jumped agilely and disappeared in the dense wood beside the valley…

After a few minutes, a pack of huge wolves appeared in the valley with green light in their eyes. After the pack of huge wolves left there, there were only some broken bones over there…
