At the sight of this, even an idiot knew that they had met a powerhouse.
Those guys who were holding weapons on one side were so scared that they moved back a few steps. Even though they were just a bunch of mobs, they had clearly known the gap between a powerhouse and small figures like them through these years of war.
"Ah, I say, I say … we're all refugees from Blackhot City. We used to live in Blackhot City. This … Blackhot City is … is just like this!"
The 40-odd years old man stammered, not daring to move at all. As he spoke, he looked down at the long spear against his neck nervously. As for Zhang Tie's last question — — what's the current situation in Blackhot City? This man really didn't know how to answer Zhang Tie's question. Zhang Tie's question was too general. Wasn't Blackhot City exactly like this?
Zhang Tie faintly frowned, "Which year, month and day of Black Iron Calendar is it now?"
That man blinked his eyes before replying rapidly, "It's March 3rd, the 894th year of Black Iron Calendar!"
"Ahh, no, it should be March 4th today!" Someone on one side hurriedly added.
"Ahh, right, right, it's March 4th today. It's March 4th. I haven't checked the calendar for a long time, I can't remember it clearly! "
That man hurriedly added. Hearing this answer, Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside. 'Heller didn't continue to joke with me. I've truly stayed in Castle of Black Iron for three years.'
"Has the holy war broken out?"
"Yes!"
"When? February, the 891st year of Black Iron Calendar!"
"How did Blackhot City become like this?"
"After the holy war broke out, the army of zombies of Sun Dynasty attacked here and besieged Blackhot City for one year!"
"Tell me in detail, what's going on with Sun Dynasty and Blackhot City!" Seeing these people's looks, Zhang Tie was shocked. Zhang Tie put away his spear at once as he threw it back to that man. Seeing Zhang Tie being not hostile to him, the man immediately turned around. Seeing Zhang Tie being not hostile, those people let out a sigh at once. After exchanging glances with each other, they put down their weapons.
In the following half an hour, they sat beside the bonfire once again. They all told Zhang Tie what had happened over the past few years at the same time.
Although Zhang Tie had long been prepared for the arrival of the holy war, he was still a bit worried. However, when he heard the news, he was still shocked speechless for quite a while. The cruelty and terror of the holy war swept over the entire Blackson Humans Corridor in only 3 years.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem In Blackson Humans Corridor, the tide of demonized puppets that broke out in over 30 countries and regions had spread the flames of the holy war over the entire Blackson Humans Corridor.
Nobody could imagine that over 30 female puppet worms, which were rare and precious in the late stage of the last holy war, could appear in the corridor of Blackson Corridor at once. It was almost 1/3 of the total number of parent puppet worms in the second holy war. What a terrifying ratio! The appearance of so many parent puppet worms indicated that demons had mastered the technology of large-scale incubation and production of parent puppet worms, which was a disaster for the entire human race.
Moreover, the new puppet worms hatched by the mother worm had a new characteristic — — the new characteristic was that the puppet worms were more intelligent and harder to deal with.
Sun Dynasty, which was adjacent to Norman Empire, was heavily affected by puppet worms. Three major cities within the territory of Sun Dynasty broke out demonized puppets at the same time. After over 6 million demonized puppets swept over the entire territory of Sun Dynasty, Sun Dynasty perished in 3 months. Closely after that, over 3 million demonized puppets invaded Norman Empire, causing Norman Empire to be involved in the holy war at once.
In July, the 891st year of Black Iron Calendar, over 600,000 demonized puppets broke through Kalur, the city of machines. They marched all the way to Blackhot City and fought the Iron-Horn Army in Blackhot City. This bloody war lasted half a year. The final result was that those demonized puppets didn't break through Blackhot City; however, Blackhot City was completely ruined.
In this war, over half of the over 500,000 soldiers of the Iron-Horn Army were killed. Over 800,000 commoners in Blackhot City were killed. As a result, there were still over 50,000 demonized puppets in the gloomy underground tunnel of the Glang Iron Mine in the northwest of Blackhot City. The railway lines leading to the outside of Blackhot City had been completely destroyed and blocked. As a result, the most important resources could not be exploited and the products could not be transported out of Blackhot City. Therefore, Blackhot City was ruined at once.
In order to prevent the commoners in this city from becoming soldiers of the demonized puppets, in May, the 892nd year of Black Iron Calendar, the remaining forces of the Iron-Horn Army and the commoners in Blackhot City started to evacuate from Blackhot City at the order of the emperor of Norman Empire.
Blackhot City had already become a dead city and a wasteland. Only a few people stayed in Blackhot City.
Like those world wars before the Catastrophe, each world war would push the war means, tools, cruelty and destructive efficiency to a new height. Each war would throw the experience of the last war into the garbage heap of history. So did the holy war between humans and demons about 200 years later.
If demonized puppets could shock people, the appearance of the demon corps in the Hurricane Plateau in the west of Golan Empire made many people despair about the future of humans.
It was an unprecedented demon corps that had not appeared in the previous two holy wars. With the appearance of that demon corps, the classification standard of LV 4 corps which had been followed by humans for hundreds of years became history.
The population of that demon corps was less than 100,000, which was only 1/6 of the population of commoners. However, the lowest-level demon fighters in that demon corps had reached LV 9!
Ordinary LV 9 demon fighters were unimaginable. However, demons made it. In front of such a demon corps, the classification standard of human corps became meaningless.
In front of this demon corps, Golan Empire only stood 2 weeks before being destroyed. Closely after that, this demon corps swept over 17 countries in Blackson Humans Corridor like a sharp demonic saber in over 2 years, causing 1/4 of Blackson Humans Corridor to fall into the enemy's hands.
The terrifying demon corps and demon disasters started the prelude of the 3rd holy war between humans and demons. At this moment, Blackson Humans Corridor was covered with flames and sorrowful songs. In order to escape from the demon disasters, hundreds of millions of refugees lost their homes and fled to safe countries and regions. Human corps were dealing with the attacks of demons by fortifying the walls and clearing the fields.
This was the information that Zhang Tie had gained in half an hour. However, this information was from 10 months ago. As to what major events had happened in Blackson Humans Corridor during the past 10 months, those refugees in Blackhot City didn't know.
After being abandoned, Blackhot City had not received any message from the outside for a long time.
After hearing this, Zhang Tie knew that this world had long been turned upside down in these years. The 3rd holy war between humans and demons might reach an unprecedented degree. The power of demons had made many people despairing.
After leaving the south gate of Blackhot City, Zhang Tie walked on the empty and desolate streets of Blackhot City alone. At the same time, Zhang Tie felt chilling and strange.
At night, the entire Blackhot City was like a ghost town. Nobody could be seen on the streets. Weeds had grown on both sides of the streets. The streets were covered with all kinds of rubbish. None of the windows of the roadside shops were intact. Besides thick dust, there were only some sundries and rubbish in the shops.
Many buildings in the city were a bit damaged. All the residential buildings and apartments were pitch-dark. Only those villas where the rich people lived and a few senior places in Blackhot City could faintly see flames and looming noises. Those were the carnival of those refugees in Blackhot City at night.
Only 1/3 of Black Gold Hotel was left in ruins...
The gate of No. 7 National Male Middle School in Blackhot City was tightly closed. The nameplate outside the gate was covered with dust. Nobody was inside...
The formerly prosperous and glorious Bright Street seemed to have experienced a terrible riot. The street was full of broken glass and all kinds of waste, and the walls on the street were full of messy graffiti.
The fountain outside the gate of Golden Roc Bank had dried up. The two gates had been destroyed and pushed over the ground...
Zhang Tie knew that the Blackhot City in his memory had already died.
Zhang Tie returned to his former home. The door was still tightly locked. When his dad and mom left Blackhot City, they didn't sell this house; instead, they kept it so that Zhang Tie could have a shelter when he came back.
The lock was the same old lock that had been used for over 10 years. The lock core was filled with oil when his dad and mom left in case of rust. Zhang Tie put another key in Castle of Black Iron. Even after being abandoned in Blackhot City, few refugees would like to visit such a family.
