Report

After the collapse of the human defense line in Selnes Theater of Operations, the provinces in the north of the Symbian Republic bore the brunt. As long as the demon corps occupied the northern region of the Symbian Republic, the southern region of the Symbian Republic and the bordering region between the Norman Empire and the Symbian Republic would be exposed to the demons.

In such a battle situation, Blackson Humans Corridor was like a row of dominoes. After the dominoes in Selnes Theater of Operations collapsed, many more dominoes would collapse one after another.

Perhaps in this case, the only bad news was that since 2 years ago, all the old, weak, women and children across the north of Blackson Humans Corridor started to evacuate towards the south in batches in an organized manner. Even if demons occupied those cities, they would only get empty cities and vast unpopulated areas. As a result, the effective human forces could be preserved while the source of demonized puppets corps would be greatly restrained.

After leaving Mocco City, Zhang Tie arrived at a hidden place in the wild. When he was still flying in the air, he had already returned to Castle of Black Iron in the incarnation of the little black beetle. The thunder hawk then rushed out of Castle of Black Iron in a split second. Zhang Tie then changed into another incarnation and continued to fly towards the south like performing a magic.

Compared to the thunder hawk, The little beetle's flying speed was too slow and its vision was too limited.

The surging spiritual energy and knight's consciousness enabled Zhang Tie to complete the transformation of his incarnation more easily and freely. If someone saw him changing the little beetle into the thunder hawk, he would definitely be dumbfounded. Because in the eyes of others, it was like a little beetle suddenly turning into a huge bird and flying away. It was like seeing a monster or a deity in myths and legends.

In the incarnation of the thunder hawk, Zhang Tie flew towards the south along the route that he took when he took the train for the first time. This route was also the route that the breakout corps of Mocco City used to evacuate. On the way, Zhang Tie could see some traces of the breakout corps.

The entire rail of the railway had been torn off. Even though they had left Selnes Theater of Operations, they could not escape. Even though they had left Selnes Theater of Operations, the human corps still carried out the maximal damage to the region that was going to be occupied by demons and Three-eye Association.

There were bloodstains on the road. There was a battlefield and traces of an army passing by, but there were no corpses.

Zhang Tie knew that those corpses were not taken away by people out of kindness; instead, they were taken away by the demonized puppets corps as rations. Based on what happened in Mocco City, if a lot of corpses were left on the battlefield, they might become a new source of poison. It posed a threat to the demonized puppets corps.

After leaving Mocco City for over 200 km, Zhang Tie and Mocco City for one hour. In the air, Zhang Tie saw the first city occupied by demons in the Symbian Republic.

It was a human city which had been burned into ruins. In the night, Zhang Tie could see smoke curling up from most of the places in the city. Some places were still covered with sparkles. At the sight of this, Zhang Tie knew that this city must have been ready to burn before the arrival of demons. Perhaps, the only task of the garrisons here was not to resist demons but to evacuate rapidly after destroying the city and burning it down. Because Zhang Tie didn't see any trace of a large-scale battle in the periphery of the city.

After this city, the same cities kept appearing in front of Zhang Tie's eyes. After deepening 700 miles in the north of Symbian Republic, Zhang Tie had already seen 5 cities like this. Numerous villages were in ruins. Black smoke and sparks were rising into the sky while the land was in ruins.

More and more demonized puppets appeared on the road. Additionally, some remaining human troops were hiding in the barren wild and mountain ridges. Zhang Tie didn't know whether they broke out of the frontline of Selnes Theater of Operations or garrisons in those cities. Zhang Tie found 5-6 human troops in the sky, the smallest one only had over 200 people; the largest one only had over 1,000 people.

At the sight of these scattered human troops, Zhang Tie could only wish them good luck inside. These human troops would face a lot of difficulties whether they wanted to fight guerrilla warfare or evacuate. They could only depend on their own fate.

This was war. Sometimes, the strength of an individual, even the strength of hundreds or thousands of people was trivial. Each of them could only struggle for their own fate.

Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside. After that, he became spirited once again.

There was a huge demonized puppets camp on the land in front of him. At the sight of that demonized puppets camp, Zhang Tie had the thunder hawk land in a hidden place carefully. After that, he called out the substitute of the little beetle. After applying a senior hiding rune to the little beetle, Zhang Tie flew towards that camp.

After applying a senior hiding rune, the little beetle's qi was almost like that of a mosquito or a fly. Therefore, it would not arouse the attention of others at all.

After a short while, Zhang Tie arrived at the camp of demonized puppets. After passing through the dense barriers and numerous demonized puppets, he found a big tent in the middle of the camp. After that, he landed outside the big tent silently. Those guys who entered this big tent after daybreak were basically powerhouses above LV 10. Two of them could even match Scala's qi. Given this point, Zhang Tie knew that this Three-eye Association clan had a much deeper background than Senel Clan. After all, Senel Clan's foundation was just Titanic Duchy. However, there were more than one or two countries which were bigger than Titanic Duchy in the collapsed area in the north. This time, Zhang Tie had already seen Senel Clan and another Three-eye Association clan in Mocco City. Plus Sladic, there were at least 4-5 Three-eye Association clans who were on the same side as the demon army. Actually, there might be more.

Those people who entered the big tent seemed to be waiting for someone as they were just whispering to each other. From their whispers, Zhang Tie learned a lot of useful information which enabled him to have a clearer understanding of the overall situation.

More than ten minutes after these people entered the tent, a group of guards wearing full body armor and two-handed swords hung on their waists walked in orderly from the entrance of the tent. Judging from their auras, they were at least LV 9 warriors. The moment these guards entered the tent, those people who had been waiting in the tent immediately separated into two groups and stood in a solemn manner, no longer saying anything.

"The Patriarch has arrived …" A voice came from outside the tent. As soon as the voice died away, a man in his fifties with a pale complexion and gorgeous armor walked into the tent accompanied by a strong old man and sat on the main seat. The old man sat on the chair beside him. The man waved his hand and those who were standing returned to their chairs behind them.

"Garr, is there any news from the frontline?" the man in the main seat asked casually.

"Clan head, I received a message last night. The vanguard corps has already arrived at Deland City. As Deland City is a big city, the garrisons in the city didn't abandon the city and escape; instead, they converged with the defeated troops in front of them and prepared to fight in the city. I'm afraid that the vanguard corps could only occupy Deland City at a great cost!" A man in the two lines opened his mouth respectfully.
