Warlord – Prologue

“It is the best of times, it is the worst of times; it is the era of wisdom, it is the era of ignorance; it is the period of faith, it is the period of doubt; it is the season of light, it is the season of darkness; it is the spring of hope, it is the winter of despair; humanity has everything in front of them and nothing; people are going to reach the heavens, people are going straight to the h.e.l.l." - "Tale of Two Cities."

2012, Sanya city, Hainan island.

“Dad! Dad! Check this out!” A boy wearing a straw hat raised the conch sh.e.l.l in his hand in excitement as if he had found a treasure. The kid had an immature face. His dark black eyes were s.h.i.+ning as he looked back at his father.

A big hand fell onto the straw hat. The shadow of the man covered the sight and his appearance wasn"t visible.

The man laughed: “Good boy. You have picked up an incredible thing! Quick show it to your mother!"

“Ah!” The boy nodded as he ran through the beach.

The boy"s laughter echoed through the beach.

In an instant a violent wind appeared without a warning.

The strong wind blew the boy"s straw hat.

“Ah, my hat …” The boy looked up at the straw hat which flew into the sky.

He saw the gray clouds that were hovering in the sky cover the originally blue sky out of nowhere. The color of sky had changed and it seemed a storm was about to happen.

The kid"s father, a tall middle-aged man quickly rushed over and held the kid"s hand. He looked at the direction of the umbrella and shouted: "Dear. It"s going to rain we should head back to the hotel…"

However his words were abruptly interrupted by the kid: "Dad! Look there! What is that?"

The man raised his head towards the sky where the kid was pointing to. The gray clouds covering the sky seemed to have something red behind them.

The red object became bigger as it get closer to the gray clouds. The people who were watching the scene were disturbed.

The middle-aged man was about to comfort the boy when a big fireball smashed through the gray clouds. A huge hole was created as clouds rolled away. The observers were able to see the fireball approaching the earth.

“Dad! Is that a meteor?” The boy"s face was full of doubts. He had never seen a meteor. It was his first time seeing such a huge fireball.

The middle-aged man had forgotten to answer the question asked by the boy. His eyes followed the fireball as it fell down into the sea. Boooom! A deafening sound echoed from the distance after a moment. The ground violently shook up and the people on the beach began to panic and scream. A strong earthquake overturned the ground.

“Quick!” The man roared as he grabbed onto the boy and run back towards the hotel. He turned back to look as he heard the sound of waves and the screams of people.

“Tsunami!”

It wasn"t known who was the first to shout out but the word spread like plague within the crowd. People panicked as the waves approached the beach. The whole place was thrown into chaos.

The boy was carried by his father but he looked back at the see because of curiosity. He found that the originally calm waves of the sea had turned into waves that were as high as dozens of meters.

Moreover the boy was able to see the red blaze that were approaching them rapidly behind the waves.

The next moment light blasted and swept through the beach faster than tsunami.

The boy"s body flew up. He had never felt his body so light, so…hot!

The surface of his body was washed with heat. The boy wasn"t even able to say a word that his soul had already reached the kingdom of heaven. At the moment of his death he only saw flames!

The flames burned everything in their path. The beach, tourists and buildings were instantly lit and burned to the ash.

I saw the distant sea occupied by the light as I looked down from the sky. The flames pa.s.sed through the sea and sweat the whole of Sanya city. Once famous tourist destination had become ruins in the blink of an eye.

Countless meteorites attacked China, j.a.pan, US, Germany, France, African countries and all over the world on the same day. The continental plates changed because of the impact of the meteorites. Tsunamis were triggered and monstrous floods swept through the globe. It was the Armageddon described in the biblical texts.

Later, that day was name as "The Day of Catastrophe!"

The earth was full of large holes after the baptism of meteorite rain. Countless living beings died. The radiation generated by the explosions were much deadly. Once prosperous surface of the earth had become a h.e.l.l-like place even after the floods receded.

The most cruel test of nature was applied for the ones who had survive the catastrophe. The shadow of death had enveloped the whole earth!

A small part of living beings survived and lingered in the h.e.l.l that earth had become. Fifty years pa.s.sed quietly after the catastrophe. The ones who survived had undergone earth-shaking changes in their genes.

A new era enveloped the earth. However no one knew how it would turn out…
