Chapter 497: Sacrifice
On November 15th, Eschyle City was covered with white snow . It was already the third day since Eschyle City recovered its order . No flesh and blood pulp like that two days ago could be seen in the streets any more . Whereas, the whole city still looked a bit cold and sluggish, especially in the six main thoroughfares of Eschyle City . Few pedestrians could be seen there .
The accumulated snow in the main thoroughfares had been shovelled away by environmental sanitation workers . However, the blue-gray granite ground bricks on the six main thoroughfares had already become dark brown like people have changed them . Looking at the color-changed ground bricks, all the environmental sanitation workers and passers felt chilly and showed their awe to Peter, Hamplester, the new ruler of this city .
The color of the ground bricks of the six main thoroughfares were tainted by the fresh blood of demonized puppets . Those young adults who participated in cleaning the six main thoroughfares a couple of days ago described them as the blood and flesh avenues .
That scene could wake up anyone in nightmares . In other words, all the nightmares were dwarfed in front of the six blood and flesh avenues .
"The six main thoroughfares in Eschyle City are six huge sausages being filled with shattered corpses of demonized puppets . Broken corpses and heads as high as mountains could be seen everywhere . The six main thoroughfares had been paved with a thick layer of bones and bloody fleshes, which had been trampled by xiphodons repetitively and they were pretty disgusting and terrifying . . . "
"People being responsible for cleaning six blood and flesh avenues had to shovel the pulp from the ground like shovelling cattle dung in the stable . Even though the most strong-willed volunteers being recruited would vomit heavily in less than 10 minutes . However, no matter what, they have to do that . . . "
Among those who survived, someone who served as a writer for a small paper in Eschyle City was jostling down what he witnessed in this catastrophe in Eschyle City in case that the event was forgotten by people in future .
People in future might forget about these details . However, these residents of Eschyle City could never forget about details as the six most spacious thoroughfares in Eschyle City had completely changed their colors due to the current ruler of Eschyle City .
On November 12th when Eschyle City was retaken, it was said that a man called Peter had killed over 10,000 or 20,000 demonized puppets by himself near the Iron Bear Castle . Additionally, all these demonized puppets were former city guards of Eschyle City who were the hardest to deal with .
Besides frightening people, these gossips also made people awed . For the most of residents in Eschyle City who looked like flurried birds, such a ruler could at least bring them a sense of safety during crisis .
Although people were relieved from fear and concern, the reality of facing Eschyle City pushed people back into the sad river .
This crisis lasted four days, in which period, the death and missing population in Eschyle City reached 1 . 37 millions, namely 1/4 of the total population in this city disappeared in this world . Almost each person in this city had lost some relatives, friends or familiar people in this catastrophe . This was not a small stimulation for everyone .
At 9 am, the whole city was drifted with the silvery bell rings——duang . . . duang . . . duang . . .
After hearing the bell rings, all the residents in the city and in the towns outside the city stopped what they were doing and started to stand in silent tribute for the dead people . As a result, a sad atmosphere immediately spread across the whole city .
At the same time, at the foot of a hill miles away from Eschyle City, hundreds of thousands of residents of Eschyle City were standing in line in a solemn way and watching a monument being erected at the foot of the huge cemetery hill where were buried with over 1million people .
All the big figures of Eschyle City and some elders of huge bear tribe attended this sacrificial ceremony .
Elder Rodolfo of Spencer clan was standing in the heavy snow on the high platform in front of the monument with tears and was loudly accusing about the atrocity and catastrophe of demons and their lackeys towards Spencer clan, Eschyle City and all the people across Ice and Snow Wilderness .
