The current situation was much more intense than that one year ago. The demonized puppets had not been completely eliminated; however, the demon corps had already started to move towards the south. In the past 10 months, three more countries had been destroyed by the demon corps. In such a case, the Central Countries Alliance of Blackson Humans Corridor had to coordinate with all the countries across Blackson Humans Corridor to prevent the demonized puppets from spreading. At the same time, all the countries across Blackson Humans Corridor dispatched some elites to fight demons in the north together in case of being destroyed by demons one after another.
At this moment, only a few countries in the south of Blackson Humans Corridor had been eliminated. All the other places in Blackson Humans Corridor were in flames of war. Large-scale refugees started to detour around the demonized puppets and head towards the south. All the countries in the south, especially Hua countries, had started to migrate humans to other continents from Blackson Humans Corridor on a large scale since two years ago.
In such a holy war, population resources would also become an important factor for humans to persist in the later period.
At this moment, the entire Selnes Plain between the north of the Symbian Republic and the Titanic Duchy had become the first theater of operations for all the countries across Blackson Humans Corridor to resist demons. The terrifying super demon corps, over 6 corps and over 3 million demonized puppets were confronting the army of over 5 million soldiers organized by dozens of countries across Blackson Humans Corridor on Selnes Plain.
If the demon corps broke through this human defense line on Selnes Plain, nobody would be able to resist demons. If so, nobody in the vast area from Selnes Plain to the north of Kalay Mountain Range of Blackson Humans Corridor would be able to resist the attack of demons. Half of the region across Blackson Humans Corridor would be completely collapsed.
It had only been 3 years since the holy war broke out; however, the casualties across Blackson Humans Corridor had already exceeded 100 million.
After hearing this news, Zhang Tie's heart sank. 'Selnes Plain could not be defended at all.' Zhang Tie's intuition told him. Only when he reached LV 9 did he know the terror of the super demon corps whose basic members were LV 9 fighters.
Without those demonized puppets disasters... Based on the population of almost 1 billion in Blackson Humans Corridor, even if all the countries gathered fighters above LV 6, they could form some golden corps. On the proper battlefield, with the help of large-scale mechanized human troops, they might be able to fight this demon corps. At a time when many countries were focusing their attention on the demonic disaster right under their noses. It was hard to say how long could the forces of those countries across Blackson Humans Corridor resist the demon army in Selnes Plain.
…
In the carriage, after killing that guy called Bohr, Zhang Tie had established his prestige at the fastest speed and became the "boss" of the condemned prisoners in this carriage. Some smart guys among the condemned prisoners immediately drew close to Zhang Tie. They all knew very well what kind of people they could follow so that they could live a little longer. This was the way of survival that death row inmates learned when they were in prison.
Zhang Tie's seat was changed from the stuffy corner to the most comfortable position in the carriage. That position was closest to the air vent and had the best and cleanest air.
In the carriage, these guys who were destined to be cannon fodder in the vanguard could only get some water and some compressed dry rations. Some ordnance boxes in the carriage contained their weapons. These weapons would not be distributed to them until they got off the train under the supervision of the troops. All the weapons boxes were sealed by the Holy War Command of Central Countries Alliance. If the seals were broken after they got off the train, all the people in this carriage would be beheaded.
The first theater of operations carried out military law. Tens of thousands of people would die every day. Therefore, the law-enforcement team of the theater of operations would never feel stressed about chopping off the heads of some prisoners who kept talking. Therefore, no matter how unruly those condemned prisoners were, they dared not break the seal at the risk of their lives.
However, the seals were still broken. When Zhang Tie wanted to see what was inside the box, the guy called Michel volunteered to open it. Michel was a master thief and a trace expert. However, he was only a LV 5 fighter. Therefore, he tried his best to show off his talent in front of Zhang Tie and emphasized his value.
Inside the box were ordinary steel spears that could be assembled in sections. There was also a breastplate and a helmet made of thin steel plates. The breastplate and helmet were very simple and crude. The thickness of the so-called steel plates was between steel plates and iron sheets, which could barely provide some defense. The breastplate only provided defense from the chest to the lower abdomen, which could be fastened to the body with canvas buckles. The helmet also had the function of a lunchbox.
These were the simplest weapons and armors, which could be enjoyed by the vanguard teams in the theater of operations.
After reading those items, Michel put the chest back in its original state. The seal on the chest was still intact. This guy's ability made Zhang Tie think highly of him.
In the evening, the train was still running on the railway. At midnight, the old dog Hillman told Zhang Tie that they had entered the theater of operations. Zhang Tie didn't feel sleepy at all. Most of the time, he just half closed his eyes and cultivated mental arithmetic by abacus. Meanwhile, he was thinking about his own affairs.
Because of Zhang Tie's calmness, the entire carriage of condemned prisoners became quiet. Nobody dared to make any noise.
The night soon passed. At the dawn of the next day, Zhang Tie, who was leaning against the vent of the carriage with his eyes half closed, suddenly felt his heart pounding. Closely after that, he opened his eyes with a shrewd look.
"Watch out..." Zhang Tie shouted without any hesitation, waking up all the other guys in the carriage at once. Many of them were still watching Zhang Tie in a daze as they didn't know why Zhang Tie would shout and wake up everybody else.
However, before Zhang Tie said anything, he had heard a loud sound from the front of the train. Closely after that, the entire carriage tilted and rolled over. In the critical moment, Zhang Tie could only grab a metal buckle in the carriage to stabilize himself...
After a full 20 seconds, the carriage that relied on inertia to charge forward experienced a few bumps and bumps before coming to a stop.
The train derailed, and the carriage was in chaos. The sealed wooden boxes placed in the carriage bumped into a few people as they rolled. Amidst the terrible sound of bones breaking, the few people screamed loudly. The head of a guy who was hit burst open on the spot, and brain matter splattered everywhere.
The carriage rolled 180 degrees, and the bottom of the carriage and the top of the carriage switched positions. The box containing the armors had already fallen apart, and the armors inside the box were scattered all over the place. The toilet bowl in the carriage also rolled over, and the contents of the toilet bowl spilled out. The whole carriage was filled with the smell of blood, wails, and the suffocating smell of excrement. It was like hell.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was the only one in good condition in the carriage. However, Zhang Tie couldn't stand the atmosphere and smell in the carriage.
The doors of the carriages of these condemned prisoners were different than those of those regular soldiers. In order to prevent these guys who wanted to join the vanguard from escaping on the way, the doors of the carriages here were all locked from outside. The moment those condemned prisoners recovered their mobility, they immediately gathered at the doors of the carriages and started to smash the doors of the carriages.
"Let us out, let us out..." Many people shouted in the carriages.
Nobody responded to their shouts. However, Zhang Tie faintly heard miserable shrieks from outside the carriage.
"Ah … Devil Race, it's the Devil Race!" Someone shouted in horror from a distance outside the carriage.
Zhang Tie changed his face at once as he forcefully moved an ordnance box away from a poor guy's leg.
"Ah, thank you, thank you..." That guy had already changed his face due to extreme pain. When he saw Zhang Tie moving the box away from him, he immediately dropped off his tears.
Zhang Tie instantly tore open the box by hand. After that, he took out a bundle of half a long spear with a spearhead. Closely after that, he ran to the side of the door and shouted, "Give way..."
Those people around the door hurriedly gave way. Zhang Tie then kicked out, causing the door made of steel plates to be deformed at once, revealing a gap which could allow a kitten to drill through. Zhang Tie then kicked out, causing the entire door to fly out together with the lock outside.
After jumping out of the carriage, Zhang Tie saw a massacre...
...
At this moment, in the first light of dawn, the long train was paralyzed beside a river like a killed snake. The front of the train and the two carriages behind it had fallen into the river. Some of the carriages were still connected to the train, while some had been detached from the train. Most of the carriages had turned over. Several armored vehicles carrying the train were now rolling on the side of the railway with their limbs facing the sky.
