Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"No problem, how much do you need?"

"All of them."

Liu Zheng thought for a moment and then said.

"Each one costs 20,000, and there are only eight left in stock. Are you sure?"

Can you give me a discount?

Sixteen thousand? He'll be bankrupt after buying that.

"I've obtained the molted shell of the Spider Maiden, so I can go to her relatives to buy the special silk thread used to make her uniform."

Liu Zheng said.

"Then I can only give you a 50% discount as if it were a near-expiry product."

The driver paused for a moment before speaking.

"Okay."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Although 80,000 yuan is a lot, it won't break your bones.

"Are there any other high-powered weapons? I want them all."

"Are you going to start a war with someone?"

The driver couldn't help but ask.

"That's it."

Liu Zheng said.

"How many people are there on the other side?"

"Dozens? Or hundreds?"

He said uncertainly.

"In that case, I have another nice thing, do you want it?"

The driver thought for a moment and then said.

"how much is it?"

"It's free. All you have to do is use enemy blood to write the kill count on the tank's armor."

the driver said.

"What good will it do you to do this?"

he asked curiously.

Could it be that the tank is actually the driver's true form, and that this enhances his strength?

"No."

"Why then?"

Liu Zheng asked, puzzled.

"Because of war, I like war."

"Hahaha!!!"

The driver let out a violent laugh, like a tank engine running beyond its limits.

Chapter 195 The Remnants of the Old Era and the War of the New Era

As I stepped out of the delivery lane, a menacing steel behemoth was quietly waiting outside.

Its enormous cannon barrel was pointed directly at him, like a giant beast baring its fangs.

Judging from its overall appearance, this tank is different from the modern tanks that Liu Zheng has seen; it looks more like an old-fashioned tank from World War II.

Scattered across the camouflage paint were patches of rubble, and the surrounding armor bore numerous dents from artillery shells or machine gun fire.

But this does not diminish the tank's beauty in the slightest. Compared to today's slick-haired young men, it is more like a veteran who has been through many battles.

Do you like it?

The driver opened the roof and stepped out.

"like."

Liu Zheng honestly replied.

No man could resist a tank like that, unless he was also given a Gundam.

"Its code name is VK4503(H), but I prefer to call it Kitty."

"It was the prototype of this tank model, but after I got it, I made some minor modifications, and now its performance is more powerful than any model that came after it."

The driver said proudly.

"It is both my child and my lover."

"So, if you want other crews to drive it, you have to pass my inspection."

The driver stared into his eyes and said seriously.

"can."

Liu Zheng agreed.

If the crew assigned to Red Ghost is not up to the task, then there is no crew in the entire Metropolis fit to drive this tank.

He took out the box and opened it.

When the driver saw the medals inside, his expression changed drastically.

"Davarishi, let's go and crush those pests!"

Liu Zheng shouted loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the four gold star medals immediately emitted a blazing red light.

The crimson light, like a blood-red setting sun, quickly transformed into four human figures, which stood in a row in front of Liu Zheng.

Their faces and attire were very blurry; one could only vaguely make out that they were wearing jackets similar to leather jackets, with soft epaulettes on their shoulders, and hats with protective strips and ear flaps on their heads.

The only thing that was clear was their sharp and determined gaze.

"Team One reporting for duty, Comrade Commander. This is Commander Maria."

The first tank crewman from the left steps forward and salutes Liu Zheng.

The voice was calm and powerful, but you could still tell it was a woman's voice.

The ace tank commander of Red Ghost is actually a woman?

He was somewhat surprised, but upon reflection, it made perfect sense.

"Greetings, Commander Maria. I'm a novice; I'm only in charge of strategic command. Tactical command is your responsibility."

Liu Zheng returned the greeting.

"A wise decision, Comrade Commander."

Captain Maria said frankly.

"I knew he was looking for a tank crew. Turns out it was you guys, the gray beasts of the Red Silk Queen."

The driver suddenly spoke up.

"Ok?"

All four crew members turned to look at him.

"The Tiger King heavy tank was originally a remnant of the SS."

Commander Maria glanced at the tank and said in a cold tone.

"If I had known you were looking for them, I wouldn't have rented it to you."

The driver said to Liu Zheng.

"What? Are you afraid your tank's performance is too poor and you'll embarrass yourself in front of us?"

Captain Maria scoffed.

"Bullshit! This is a model I've meticulously modified; its performance far surpasses your 'steel' cars by the Rhine!"

The driver roared in anger.

Anyone can brag; I'll only know if it's true after I've driven it.

"Commander Maria said calmly."

"Dream on! Who gave you permission to drive my little kitty?"

"Little kitty, ha, only you Germans with no artistic sense would give such an aesthetically unappealing name."

Captain Maria mocked again.

"Damn woman, I challenge you to a duel!"

The driver was about to jump off the tank and rush towards Maria.

"Stop, stop, stop."

Liu Zheng had no choice but to step in and stop it.

“Captain Maria, Red Ghost sent you here to help me kill the insects, not to cause internal strife.”

He said to Captain Maria.

“We are not on his side, Comrade Commander.”

Captain Maria immediately retorted, but did not continue to mock the driver.

"Driver."

Call me Major.

The driver shouted.

"Alright, Major Driver. I definitely can't afford to rent your crew. Rather than having me find some shoddy crew from somewhere else, it's better to let your old rivals drive it. At least they won't disgrace your beloved car, right?"

Liu Zheng readily accepted the good advice.

"Hmph, I'll give you face this time. Come in."

After a moment of change in expression, the driver spoke, then climbed back into the tank.

"Commander Maria, the mission comes first."

He extended his right hand to Captain Maria.

“I understand. As long as he doesn’t continue to provoke me, I will pretend he doesn’t exist.”

The latter extended his right hand and shook hands with him.

"Thank you for your understanding."

After the communication was completed, Liu Zheng and his four crew members climbed into the tank.

Upon entering, he found the interior to be much larger than he had imagined.

While it's not exactly spacious and comfortable, it's certainly not cramped either.

It can easily accommodate an eight-person crew, let alone a five-person crew.

The tank's interior was filled with pipes, switches, buttons, and many strange-looking symbols, unlike what Liu Zheng had seen in the movie.

"Are you still researching the combination of technology and witchcraft? What a crazy and stupid idea."

Captain Maria couldn't resist.

"We are long gone, and so are you."

This time, the driver didn't retort, but instead said calmly.

"We are all remnants of the old era. Our cause has become the foundation for others, and your traces have long been erased. Even the sacred war is gone, leaving only a pack of beasts and another pack of carrion fighting over rotten flesh. Isn't it laughable?"
