The man's hands were burning when Zhang Tie suddenly took the spear away from his hand, but the cold tip of the spear pressed against his Adam's apple made him dare not move. Zhang Tie only used two fingers to He held one end of the spear like a walnut, but the spear was as steady as a mountain in his hand.
One look at this posture, and even an idiot knows that he has met a master.
The guys who were still holding weapons next to them were frightened and took a few steps back. Even though they were just a bunch of rabble, the wars in the past few years have made them very clear about the difference between a master and a little person like them. How big is the gap between them.
"Ah, I said... we are all refugees from Black Flame City. We originally lived in Black Flame City. This... Black Flame City is... just like this!"
The man in his forties stammered, not daring to move. As he spoke, he looked nervously down at the spear pressed against his neck, and responded to Zhang Tie's last question. What is the current situation in Yancheng? This man really doesn't know how to answer. Zhang Tie's question is too general, and isn't Black Yancheng what it looks like in front of him
Zhang Tie frowned slightly, "What year, month and day is the current time in the Black Iron Calendar?"
The man blinked, and then said quickly, "It is March 3, 894 in the black iron calendar!"
"Ah, no, today should be March 4th!" A person next to him quickly added.
"Ah, yes, yes, today is March 4th. It's March 4th. I haven't looked at the calendar for a long time, so I can't even remember it!" the man quickly added.
Hear this answer. Zhang Tie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, Heller did not continue to make such jokes with him. As expected, he had only stayed in the Black Iron Castle for three years.
"Is a jihad breaking out?"
"Erupted!"
"When did it happen? February 891 of the Black Iron Calendar!"
"Why did Black Flame City become like this?"
"After the Holy War broke out, the zombie army from the Sun God Dynasty came over and besieged Black Flame City for a year!"
"Tell me carefully what's going on with the Sun God Dynasty and Black Flame City!" Seeing the appearance of these people. Zhang Tie immediately put away the spear and threw it to the man again. He saw that Zhang Tie was not hostile. Those people breathed a sigh of relief. After looking at each other, they each put down their weapons.
In the next half hour, several people sat next to the fire again. One by one, everyone told Zhang Tie what had happened in the past few years.
Although Zhang Tie had already made enough mental preparations for the arrival of the jihad. But when he actually heard the news, he was still shocked and speechless. The cruelty and terror of the jihad swept through the entire Blackson Human Corridor in just three years.
In a place like the Blackson Human Corridor, the frenzy of demonized puppets that broke out in more than thirty countries and regions burned the flames of jihad throughout the Blackson Human Corridor from the beginning.
No one could have imagined that the relatively rare and precious demon puppet worm mother worms, which only appeared in the late stages of the last holy war, would actually appear in the Blackson corridor this time, with more than 30 of them, just this number. It is almost one-third of the number of puppet worm females that appeared in the Second Holy War. This is an extremely terrifying ratio. The emergence of so many puppet worm mothers means that the demons have mastered the technology of large-scale hatching and manufacturing of puppet worm mothers, which is a disaster for the entire human race.
Moreover, the puppet worms hatched from the new puppet worm mother worms also have a new feature. This new feature is that the puppet worms are more intelligent and more difficult to deal with.
The Sun Dynasty, which is adjacent to the Norman Empire, was the hardest hit area by puppet worms. Demonic disasters broke out in three important cities in the Sun Dynasty at the same time. After more than 6 million demonized puppets began to sweep across the entire Sun Dynasty, the Sun Dynasty The Divine Dynasty perished in three months. Then, more than three million demonized puppets invaded the Norman Empire, dragging the Norman Empire into the flames of the Holy War.
In July 891 of the Black Iron Calendar, more than 600,000 demonized puppet legions broke through the machine city Karur and fought all the way to the Black Flame City. They fought a bloody battle with the Iron Horn Legion in the Black Flame City. This bloody battle lasted for half a year and finally ended. As a result, those demonized puppets did not defeat Black Flame City, but Black Flame City was completely destroyed.
In this war, the Iron Horn Legion of more than 500,000 people was reduced by more than half, and the ordinary people of Black Flame City suffered more than 800,000 casualties. The final result is that to this day, the demonized puppet army attacking Black Flame City finally... There are still more than 50,000 demonized puppets entrenched in the dark underground tunnels of the Grand Iron Mine in the northwest of Black Flame City. The external railway lines of Black Flame City have been completely destroyed and blocked, and the most important resources cannot be mined. If the smelted things cannot be transported out, Black Flame City will be ruined in an instant.
In order to prevent the people in this city from becoming demonized puppet soldiers, in May 892 of the Black Iron Calendar, on the order of the Norman Emperor, the remnants of the Iron Horn Legion and the people of Black Flame City who survived the disaster began to evacuate Black Flame city.
Black Flame City has become a dead and abandoned city. A small number of people did not leave and fend for themselves in Black Flame City.
Just like the previous world wars of mankind before the cataclysm, the outbreak of each world war will push the means, tools, cruelty and efficiency of destroying lives to a new height. Every war will Throwing the experience of the last war into the garbage heap of history, almost two hundred years later, the holy war between humans and demons will be even more so.
If the demonized puppets were just shocking, then with the start of the Holy War, the demonic legions that appeared on the Hurricane Plateau in the western part of the Golan Empire could even make many people despair about the future of the human race.
It was an unprecedented demonic legion that had never appeared in the previous two holy wars. With the emergence of that demonic legion, the four-level legion division standard that humans had followed for hundreds of years suddenly became history.
The number of the demon legion was less than 100,000, which was only about one-sixth of the ordinary human legion, but the lowest-level demon warriors in that legion had already reached level nine!
A ninth-level ordinary legionnaire, this is something no one can imagine, but the demons have done it. In front of such a legion, human legion division standards have no meaning.
In front of this demon army, the Golan Empire only lasted for two weeks before perishing. Then this demon army was unstoppable and invincible. In just over two years, like a sharp demon knife, Black was destroyed one after another. There are seventeen countries in the Blackson Corridor, and a quarter of the Blackson Corridor has fallen.
The terrifying demon army and the raging demon disaster everywhere have kicked off the third human holy war. The Blackson human corridor is now full of flames and lamentations. In order to escape the demon disaster, hundreds of millions of refugees have been displaced and are rushing to flee to those places. In relatively safe countries and regions, the human legion is using tactics of fortifying walls and clearing the field to deal with the demonic offensive.
These situations are the information that Zhang Tie obtained in the past half hour, and this information was already ten months ago. What other major events have happened in the Blackson Human Corridor in the past ten months? That is not At this moment, the group of refugees still entrenched in Black Flame City can only know.
The abandoned Black Flame City has had no information from the outside world for a long time.
After listening to this, Zhang Tie knew that in the past few years, the world has been turned upside down. The cruelty of the third human holy war may reach an unprecedented level, and the power shown by the demons has already begun. It makes many people despair.
After leaving the south gate of Black Flame City, Zhang Tie walked alone on the empty and desolate streets of Black Flame City. A chilling sense of strangeness made Zhang Tie's heart twist.
The entire Black Flame City looks like a ghost at night. There are basically no people on the streets. Weeds have begun to grow on both sides of the streets in the city. There are all kinds of messy garbage on the streets. The windows of roadside shops Basically none of them are complete, and apart from the thick accumulation of dust, there are only some clutter and garbage inside the store.
Many buildings in the city are somewhat damaged, and the inhabited buildings and apartments are pitch black. Only in the villa areas where the rich lived in the past and a few high-end places in the Black Flame City, there is a faint trace of it. The firelight and the looming chaotic noise were the indulgent carnival of the refugees entrenched in the Black Flame City when night came.
The Black Gold Hotel was burned down to only a third of the ruins...
The school gate of No. 7 National Boys' High School in Heiyan City is closed tightly. The school sign at the school gate is covered with dust, and there is no one inside...
Mingguang Street, which used to be prosperous and glorious in the past, seems to have experienced a terrible riot. Broken glass and various wastes are everywhere on the street, and the walls along the street are covered with messy graffiti like ghost drawings.
The fountain at the entrance of Jinpeng Bank has dried up, and the two doors at the entrance have been vandalized and pushed to the ground...
Zhang Tie knew that the Black Flame City in his memory was dead.
Zhang Tie returned to his former home, and the lock outside the home was still tightly locked. When his parents left Black Flame City, they did not sell the house here, but kept it for future generations. The wanted man would have a place to stay when he comes back.
The lock is still the same one that has been used at home for more than ten years. The lock cylinder was filled with oil when my parents left, because they were afraid that it would get rusty and they would not be able to open it. Zhang Tie also has another key, which he placed in the Black Iron Castle. Even after Black Flame City was abandoned, few refugees were willing to visit such a family.
Zhang Tie stood at the door blankly for a while, then took out the key, and with a click, the lock cylinder suddenly opened, just like when Zhang Tie came home from school... (… )
