“Soon after the Thor’s Mercenary Regiment arrive at Western Continent, it had disbanded. If an organization like mercenary regiment wants to survive in troubled times, it has to establish a wide network of relationships, have a powerful reliance or at least a knight on its back. Pitifully, Thor’s Mercenary Regiment didn’t meet either of the three conditions. Additionally, it was pushed aside by the other mercenary regiments. Of course, we could barely develop. After one year’s struggle, Thor’s Mercenary Regiment received a task which was schemed by someone. Our director was heavily injured in the execution of this task. Additionally, we lost 1/4 of middle- and high-level backbones. From then on, Thor’s Mercenary Regiment had been declining. Later on, it was disbanded and we separated from each other...”

As they had not seen each other for a long time, of course, they would have a drink. After having cups of 10-year peach blossom spirit, Zerom and Captain Kerlin both blushed as they started to pour out their experience to Zhang Tie over these years.

In troubled times, very few people could really live well in a foreign country. What Zerom and Captain Kerlin experienced on the Western Continent was the epitome of many middle- and low-level fighters.

Watching the wrinkled faces of the two people, Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside as he bottomed up his spirit and said, “Where did you go after that?”

“After leaving Thor’s Mercenary Regiment, Kerlin and I also attempted to join other mercenary regiments in 2 years. However, we didn’t feel having a good prospect of joining them. Facing the threat of demons, those mercenary regiments on the Western Continent were all cheap pieces in the hands of countries. There’re many shady deals in this line. It was nothing different than being the cheapest cannon fodders like those youngsters who expected to prove their own values out of their passion using sabers and swords on the battlefield for us to join those powerful mercenary regiments. Even our compensations would be saved...”

Hearing Zerom’s words, Captain Kerlin took his glass and bottomed up his spirit with a bit gloomy look. After that, he forcefully put the glass onto the table, causing a loud sound, “All those b*stards should be torn to shreds. They’re even more inhumane than demons...”

Zerom forced a bitter smile as he threw a glance at Captain Kerlin, “We met a female fighter in that mercenary regiment. Like us, she was also treated as cannon fodder. Additionally, as a female, she would even encounter some special troubles in the male-dominated mercenary regiment. If not help her, she might even face a more miserable situation than males. Later on, Kerlin killed a middle-level backbone of that mercenary regiment out of fury for the sake of that female fighter. As a result, we were hunted by that mercenary regiment and could only leave out of there. And that female knight fell in love with Kerlin in this process. Additionally, they had the father of a church hold a wedding ceremony for them in a rural area of Shardline Dukedom by force at the cost of 2 silver coins. That is to say, Captain Kerlin has already got a family...”

Zhang Tie really felt happy for the Cyclops after knowing that he met his beloved one in an escape. At this moment, Captain Kerlin blushed with a happy look, “You’ve got a family too.” Captain Kerlin said as he turned around and unveiled Zerom’s secret, “You could never guess this guy’s wife.”

“Who is she?”

“You know her!” Captain Kerlin revealed a smile.

“I know her?” Zhang Tie became amazed as he really couldn’t imagine whom he got acquainted with would marry Zerom.

“It’s Miss Killy!” Captain Kerlin unveiled the answer.

“Miss Killy?” This name sounded familiar. No sooner did Captain Kerlin mention it than Zhang Tie recalled a beautiful figure who drove away Glaze on the square of Wild Wolf Castle. Of course, at that time, that female teacher who always gazed all the male horny ones in an alert way also disliked Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie felt a bit abrupt hearing Mr. Zerom got married to Miss Killy. However, after considering it for a short while, Zhang Tie admitted that Zerom and Miss Killy really had pretty harmonious qi fields.

“What? How did you contact Miss Killy on the Western Continent?” Zhang Tie watched Zerom with a curious look as he added, “I’ve not imagined that Mr. Zerom could have such a great secret, hahaha...”

“Ahem, ahem, erm, before leaving Blackhot City, I had been contacting Killy. She had an uncle doing business in Nordinham Commercial Federation on the Western Continent. Killy said she would go to find her uncle after leaving Blackhot City. After crossing a small part of the Western Continent, Kerlin, Angelina and I finally came to Nordinham Commercial Federation after escaping from the chase of that mercenary regiment. As a scaled organization on the Western Continent, Nordinham Commercial Federation was coveted by some forces. In order to divide the sphere of influence of Nordinham Commercial Federation, those forces bribed many mercenary regiments to fight the army of Nordinham Commercial Federation. After tiding over those crises, Nordinham Commercial Federation has forbidden to carry out any campaign with any mercenary regiment in its territory. After coming to Nordinham Commercial Federation, we settled down there. I also started to contact Killy. As to what happened later, you already know...” Zerom shrugged...

“Milton is the deputy president of Nordinham Commercial Federation. After coming to Nordinham Commercial Federation, both Kerlin and I wanted to settle down as we didn’t want to have any relationship with any mercenary regiment anymore. In the beginning, we found a job in a business group under the affiliation of Nordinham Commercial Federation and did a good job. We could barely see big figures like Milton. Last year, Milton knew that Kerlin and I came from Blackhot City by accident and got acquainted with you; therefore, he wanted to establish a relationship with you using us. Previously, we didn’t know about your situation in Taixia Country. It was Milton who told us about your situation!” Zerom forced a bitter smile as he continued, “I also felt that this was a good chance for us to improve our fate. Therefore, we came to Taixia Country with Milton by an airboat of Golden Roc Bank...”
