Doomsday Pillars
/ Doomsday Pillars 122 Clear Up
Fortunately, the reinforcements have arrived from the south. A group of black-uniformed fighters is advancing. These Death Squad soldiers were both scary and pleasant to see. Not only each one of them is a skillful fighter, but they also move in perfect formation. This is the strength that none of the other groups can follow. Each of these Death Squad soldiers has had been training hard together since they were young, they trust each other like their own brothers.
Cindy grew more excited seeing the incoming 300 men. In her mind, she started to wonder if they wore no clothes and put on a red cape, they would look exactly like the soldiers from one of her favorite Hollywood movies.
Among these 300 men, there are 3 that actually stand out, Alex has seen and recognized all three of them. They are 3 out of the regent's famous 5 little generals. One using the huge hammer is called Anton, a hulking muscles guy who later on got the title The Destroyer, another next to him has an exact opposite build, he is a smaller than regular-sized male holding double swords named Rafid.
The third one among the regent's little generals is the special one, he wasn't there when Alex came to the Deathsquad military base in Sumatra. The 40 years old man named Arief has been Deathsquad's highest rank for years and currently the last living out of the Deathsquad three colonels. He is the regent's closest confidant. In previous lives, this guy holding a large blade was known as a spirit enhancer nicknamed the Silver Warrior.
"Courage!! Truth!! Victory!!"
"Charge!!!"
When the 300-men Deathsquad and its commander joined the fray, the situation finally started to turn in favor of the human survivors. With every step of these 300 fighters, hundreds of undead died. They were definitely proven as Indonesia's greatest military force. These people are not the same group as they were before the doomsday.
There's actually one main reason why these 300 men had been training harder than usual in the last few weeks. Two months ago, a guy arrived in their base and put these nation's greatest army to shame. One guy fought more than 200 Death Squad soldiers and was able to defeat them all. To add more salt into their wounds, this one guy even took away their beloved Ice Queen away.
This time in front of the Ice Queen, within this battle on the street of Semarang, they would like to show off their newfound strength.
Bang!! Slash!! Pa! Pa! Baam!!
Every swing of Anton's hammer would crush open a few undead heads at the same time. Every minute, dozens of heads were seen flying decapitated by Rafid's twin swords.
But it seems that in the last three days none of what they did would interest Aria the Ice Queen, although they found her ignorance to be normal, the people that were recently close to her like Cindy, Theo and Alex realized something different with her these past few days.
ROOARRR!!
On one side of the battle a red zombie charges at Aria from behind with high speed.
"ARIA!! WATCH OUT!!"
SPLASH!!
The red zombie stopped just half a meter behind her, and it would have bitten her back if Cindy didn't quickly grab the undead using her whip.
Aria was lost in thought for a second there and quickly turned around and stabbed the red mutated zombie with her knives.
"Thank you, Cindy... I owe you one.."
"Not one girl!! This is the second one today. What got into you!... Concentrate on the battle."
"Yes, yes... Don't worry, I am fine."
Actually, Aria has been in a lot of thought, the word of her grandfather the regent three days ago still clouding her mind till this day.
(The battle of Semarang will finish today, does that mean we will be leaving tomorrow?")
(Why does that guy not say anything to me?)
(Doesn't he need me anymore?)
These questions have been filling her mind in the last three days. While still killing zombies left and right with her skill, she unconsciously moved a bit too far from the group into the front of a hotel lobby. Suddenly...
RRRROOOAAAARRRR!!!!
A loud shrieking scream, so loud it broke the windows of the hotel lobby and was followed up by a large pitch-black figure jumping into Aria. This is the second stage, mutated zombie.
"!!!"
Aria used every little strength in her body to jump back a few meters, but her late reaction cost her a deep scratch on her back.
AAaargghhh!!!
Aria got thrown back a few meters from the impact and stumbled laying on the ground.
The huge 5-meter tall monster chases her and closes in real fast, within seconds it's already just a meter away from her.
"!!!"
Aria is in a very bad position, she's unable to move. She sees the huge abomination throwing a kick onto her, a direct impact from such force would probably kill her.
'It's the end.', she thought... At the last second, suddenly a flash of an image comes to her mind, it's an image of a man that had been on her mind these past few days.
People say when death comes knocking on the door, most of the time an image of the most important person in the heart would show in mind.
'... Dying like this?.... How stupid…'
BAAAMMMM!!!
A figure jumps in and crashes on the flying kick. Aria was stunned with the last second rescue, it was the famous rock golem that managed to push the huge abomination away from her.
Looking at the golem, suddenly her heart flutters, in her mind, he came to the rescue again... A figure came closer to her and started helping her stand, Aria's heart was racing faster than usual, she turned around to see the man behind her saying...
"Are you alright?"
When Aria finally saw the man, suddenly she was startled, the man who's currently helping her is not the one she expected. It's Rafid, one of the Deathsquad commanders. She felt embarrassed inside but quickly hid it.
"I am fine, thank you..."
Another figure holding a huge hammer came to Aria in panic.
"Are you alright miss?... No sorry, are you alright lieutenant?"
The two Deathsquad commanders have idolized Aria for a long time, they have been closely watching out for her when Aria was in danger, she was their priority. But when they reached Aria, it seems Aria didn't really care to talk with them and appears to search for something.
The golem is currently fighting with the black undead, but the owner is not around... Unconsciously Aria starts searching for Alex, a few seconds later there in the distance she saw Alex on top one of the three-story building standings watching the fights with her grandfather.
(Why are you up there...?)
(Don't you see I got hit just now?)
(Ouchh... it's pretty painful...)
(Don't worry Aria, you are fine, you are fine...)
Up in the distance about 200 meters away from where Alex and the Regent standing...
"Wow!! Luckily the stone golem came right in time, it moves amazingly fast."
Alex was currently deep in thought...
"Fortunately I prepare for the worst, as expected there is one of these things at the city center."
"What is that thing?"
Alex tried to explain as much as he could about the strength of the black zombies, its super strength, its regenerative ability and its ability to turn a part of its body into a solid sharp weapon. But the more Alex talked about the horrors of the stage two undead, the more the regent liked the golem who was able to hold the monster even more. The regent is a military man, he will always be interested in a powerful weapon.
"Where can I get one of those golems?"
"You will find some of them later on from the doomsday pillars, regent."
" I see... I see"
"By the way, it appears your granddaughter is fine, regent."
"Yes, of course she's fine… Strength runs in the family you see."
Aria's wounds were currently being treated by one of the fighters, as she crouched on the ground, she tried to focus her mind back at the battle and saw the amazing fights between the golem and the abomination. Last time in Surabaya City, she was outside and didn't get the chance to see the black undead, it's her first time studying the monster strength.
It appears the golem is stronger than its opponent, it hits harder and has a stronger body. Aria starts seeing dark purplish blood coming out of the black zombie. But unfortunately, the golem doesn't really have a strong attack or a weapon that could really kill the monster, therefore the fight seemed to be going nowhere.
BAMM!! BRACK!! BAMM!!
They kept hitting each other, but both were still able to stand back firmly. The golem jumped up, raised both of his hands to the air and came crashing down with such a powerful hit with both of his hands.
BAAAMMM!!!!
The stage two black zombie was down to its knees to the ground, it seemed to scream out loudly, none of the spectators would know if it's out of anger or pain.
Suddenly, a figure came quickly closing in on the black monster. It's one of the Deathsquad soldiers, the spirit enhancer. He raised his huge two-meter long sharp blades to the air and the huge blade suddenly turned larger in form and suddenly seemed shinier than before.
The quiet man named Arief came charging at the golem with both arms on his blade.
AARRGGGGHHH!!!!!
He jumped and with all his strength swung it down right on top of the undead's head.
SSWWISSHHH!!! SPLAT!!
The blade went in 20 centimeters deep into the monster's head, it's able to make the abomination stop attacking, but it seems it's still twitching its arms although half of its head's already split by the mysterious blade. Arief quickly used the monster's shoulders to pull the blade and perform another swing at the exact same spot.
SPPLLAAATTTT!!
Finally, the head was split in two. The brain was spilling out of its head, and the huge monster finally stopped moving and dropped to the ground.
Seeing this everyone around cheered for the man. A few of Alex's group turned in wonder, especially James Randall's team of special forces, they have seen first hand how hard the second stage zombie's body is. But this man is able to split it apart with that strange blade.
Other than the 300 death squad soldier, Alex also knew the secret behind the blade. This guy named Arief is a spirit enhancer who's able to control metal. When he reached peak stage Mortal Realm, he realize he got the power to strengthen a metal.
When Alex saw his strength, Alex grew more excited, in his mind there's finally another special spirit enhancer who's able to show their spiritual affinity while still in the Mortal Realm.
Minutes after the death of the stage two zombie, finally the city center was neutralized from the zombies. Next, the survivors could start rebuilding the city. As for Aria, when the battle was over, surprisingly she seemed to find her determination and decided to meet with her grandfather.
