Chapter 1093: Chapter 818 Two Years Later_2

Cradling a thread of hope, Su Yu hurried to one city after another, hoping to find people and friends he once knew, but alas, he was met with disappointment after disappointment. When he finally arrived at "White Tiger Giant City," and saw it too had been destroyed—reputed to be the foremost of the Ten Great Giant Cities—Su Yu knew that his hopes were shattered.

The power of the Ten Great Giant Cities that once dominated the Black Iron World and ruled for countless ages had completely disintegrated, leaving not even dregs behind.

"They’re all dead, it seems... everyone is dead," Su Yu murmured as he looked at the "White Tiger Giant City," now lifeless and in ruins, and he couldn’t help but shake his head in a sigh. In this world, he could neither sense the presence of the so-called Child of Destiny, nor could he sense Zhang Zhongmou or his parents. Ada had speculated that they might have left this world, but there was also the possibility that they had somehow concealed their aura, making it undetectable even to him and Ada.

For example, one day, the Wooden Men laid a seal around "Black Iron City," or like Tezcatlipoca’s "Absolute Seal," either could block the detection of their presence, rendering even the now stronger Su Yu or the highly perceptive Ada unable to feel it.

After all, compared to taking people weaker than the Black Iron Realm and fleeing this world, it’s much easier to conceal oneself and hide somewhere within it.

Regrettably, even after searching the entire world, he had found no trace of them.

"It seems I need to find someone to ask which year it is now... If I can’t find any useful information here, I’ll have to search in other worlds," Su Yu pondered while taking slow steps with "Endless Sky Soaring." With every step he took, space seemed to contract, moving at a speed beyond the limits of ordinary human perception.

Ada made a sound of agreement and said, "Now that the Child of Destiny’s aura is undetectable, it means that those children have become powerful enough to leave this world. Moreover, they’ve destroyed the rule of the Ten Great Giant Cities, and the people of Black Iron City have also been affected. It’s just unknown whether they are hiding somewhere in this world or have, like the Child of Destiny, already left this world."

This time, Su Yu did not aim to search for the "Ten Great Giant Cities," but rather chose a place where living creatures congregated. With just a few steps, he soon came to a stop as a city appeared before him not far ahead.

This was a bustling city, and as Su Yu approached, he noticed that it was busy with people coming and going in an endless stream. Many seemed to be warriors of Black Iron Sixth Rank or Seventh Order, with the occasional sighting of Fourth Order or Level Five.

With a flicker, Su Yu moved at a speed that the Black Iron Warriors couldn’t see with their eyes and casually grabbed a man who had reached Black Iron Seventh Rank; then, in a blink, he was tens of thousands of meters away.

At that moment, the Black Iron Seventh Rank man, who was leading his brothers about to enter the city, suddenly "whooshed" and disappeared. The people around were in an uproar, rubbing their eyes in disbelief. Yes, the companion who had just been by their side had indeed vanished. Could it be that they had encountered a ghost?

"What happened? How could Qiang have disappeared?" someone exclaimed in terror.

"This... this... have we run into a ghost?" another person stuttered, filled with panic.

"How can a living person just vanish into thin air... this... this..."

The surrounding area was buzzing with discussion, and soon, a large crowd had gathered, all discussing the baffling supernatural event.

Holding the Black Iron Seventh Rank man, who had no ability to resist and was as helpless as a chicken, Su Yu was already tens of thousands of meters away. With a casual gesture, he threw the man down.

The man had a terrified expression, attempted to cry out but could not. It wasn’t until Su Yu threw him that he caught his breath, but still, he dared not call out, only staring at Su Yu with eyes wide with fear.

He wasn’t a fool to have reached the Seventh Order Realm; he clearly understood that he had encountered a terrifying opponent beyond his imagination. The powerful figure before him could probably crush him with a mere flick of the finger.

"Don’t be afraid, I won’t kill you," Su Yu said calmly, "I just want to ask you a few simple questions. Just answer them truthfully."

In the face of this absolute momentum, Su Yu almost couldn’t be bothered to use words to threaten him by saying he would kill him if he lied.

This man was simply nodding desperately, his mouth dry from fear, barely able to speak. Although he had always been the leader of a small group with considerable prestige and status, now, he was nothing.

"What’s the date today?" Su Yu’s question caught the man off guard, making him wonder if he had heard wrong. Why would anyone ask him that?

"The date?" Su Yu’s voice rose slightly, startling the man’s petrified mind awake, and he hurriedly replied, "January 25th, today is January 25th."

Su Yu frowned, saying, "I’m asking you the year. What year is it for January 25th?"

The man didn’t understand why Su Yu was asking such a strange question but he still answered honestly, "January 25th, 2015. I’m telling the truth."

"2015? So, two years have passed?" Su Yu let out a light sigh, not expecting that his time in that independent space would last two years. No wonder the changes in the Black Iron World were so great. Unknowingly, two years had passed.

"This world was once ruled by the Ten Great Giant Cities. Now that they have been destroyed, what are the powers that have taken their place?"

Seeing that Su Yu’s demeanor was gentle, the man’s initial fear slowly faded, and his answers became more fluid. He immediately said, "The world now is divided into many countries and powers, all of which are from Earth. The most powerful include the Huaxia, India, United States of America, Russia, Japan, Indonesia, Egypt and so on. Additionally, there are many smaller powers, too many to state clearly. Really, I can’t explain them all."

Su Yu hummed in acknowledgment, nodding his head, roughly understanding the situation.

Starting from the End of Days on December 21st, 2012, billions of people from major countries around the world had fallen into the Black Iron World. A hundred thousand Children of Destiny were born, and in the two years he had been confined to the independent space, these Children had grown stronger, wiping out the original rulers of this world—the Ten Great Giant Cities, and in search of even greater power, had already left the Black Iron World.

After the departure of the Children of Destiny, among the original billions of humans, those who had survived also gradually emerged from the Heavenly Pit Forest, slowly establishing their own forces, creating a new system of major countries and factions.

For instance, what this man referred to as Huaxia was likely established by the former Chinese, and India by the former Indians, and so on.

These new human powers had completely replaced the original ten races and the Ten Great Giant Cities. Given more time, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, they would slowly evolve and develop into new major races and civilizations in this world.

"Two years ago, there was an incident involving the Divine Pit in the sixth-order space of water elements. Are you aware of it?" Su Yu inquired.

The man shook his head, saying, "I’ve heard of it, but I never participated. All I know is... it seems there were many treasures inside, and those who entered came out much stronger. I’m not clear on the details."

Su Yu responded with a noncommittal sound. He didn’t expect the man to know; looking at his current Seventh Order Realm, two years ago, he probably wasn’t qualified to enter the Divine Pit World.

"Then, do you know about Black Iron City?" As soon as Su Yu asked, he knew it was a pointless question; the man just shook his head blankly.

"Alright, you can go. Remember, don’t talk about me to anyone, otherwise..." Su Yu was about to deliver a threat but then gave up, simply smiling faintly, shaking his head at the man. In an instant, he leapt up, breaking through the air and vanished.

For humans, threatening an ant with words is laughably ridiculous and a waste of time. (To be continued. For what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com. More Chapters are available and your support for the author, as well as legitimate reading, is appreciated!)
