Back From the Apocalyptic Future 039 - The Doping Effect
There is no other choice. He just swallows that red crystal, the second one he consumes in a day. And immediately, the system gives him a warning. [Alert!] [You’re consuming another red crystal while the effect of the previous one is still affecting your body] - You will burn twice as many calories as your normal condition. - All your physical attributes will be doubled, except for your stamina. - The effect will disappear after two hours, or when your physical condition falls below 10%. Arifin’s face slowly turns dark red. He feels so hot inside. Even the way he perceives his surroundings is changing too. Those monsters are still slamming his barrier. But now, he sees them moving a bit slower than before. “What the? What’s wrong with me?” Somehow, he sees the gap between their barrages. He immediately deactivates the barrier, and waves his sword from the left to the right in one horizontal stroke. Crasssh!!! That one stroke is so heavy and powerful. It cuts so many of thos
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 040 - How A Hero Dies
The rain that was so heavy has started to subside. There is still a drizzle that is occasionally blown by strong winds. But the cloud is still quite dense above the city, blocking the sunlight that is going to set on the western horizon. Those three are creeping along the corridor from one faculty building to another. So many glass windows are broken apart. So is the condition of the small gardens around the building. They find the dead bodies of Dilophopapio monsters scattered around everywhere, inside and outside the building, hanging on the broken windows, also on the fences of the second floor. It’s hard to imagine whether Arifin was only luring them away by running around, or fighting them head on. They’ve checked on five buildings from three different faculties. But Arifin is still nowhere to be found. “Crazy! Is this all your friend’s work?” asks Rizal. “Who else,” replies Tony. “Well, I just hope he is still alive,” Watt interferes as he shoves one nasty severed limb on t
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 041 - The Price of A Hoax
Those monsters no longer approach the evacuation area due to the strong rays from the Floodlights. Yet they are still lurking around the empty buildings and the outdoor hallways waiting for the night comes. “So they don't only attack at night, huh?” asks Prof. Irwan. “It's not a matter of night or day. They just hate strong lights,” replies Tony. “Anyway, what about the situation at the dormitories?” “The floodlights around that area have been turned on. But we still evacuated everyone to the Auditorium.” “And Arifin?” “He is receiving treatment right now. They can’t be sure yet about his condition. At least, they didn’t find any wound in him?” “I believe he is just exhausted due to using his repulsive force too much.” “Repulsive force? What are you talking about?” Tony deliberately shows off his ability by releasing a small spark of electricity on the tip of his fingers. But he is doing it by hiding it from everyone else. He simply shocks Prof. Irwan a bit with it. “What was
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 042 - An Old Man And His Ego
As soon as he enters the Auditorium building, Prof. Harun sees so many citizens are still alive. They look so fine like nothing happened in this university. Instead of feeling grateful, this old man’s face is only getting even more sour.“I heard those bizarre monsters only come out at night. But it doesn’t seem like it. Hundreds of people have died because of this hoax. You think whose fault is this?” asks that old man.“Who are you going to make a scapegoat for?” replies Prof. Irwan cold.Prof. Harun walks closer to the young professor. “I’ve learned that this is a hoax shared by that kid. Don’t ever think about protecting him anymore. So many people have died because of his antics.”The young professor immediately looks down. Not because he joins in blaming Arifin for the incident. But he can’t forget what he just got when he tried to call his friend earlier.He believes he has his own share to be blamed, for being too late in responding to Arifin’s warning.That old man ignores Pr
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 043 - Ignorance
Arifin suddenly wakes up with a mad face, letting out his rage and releasing a strong killing intent to his surroundings. Silvy is immediately fainted by the pressure, while Grace is shaking in terror. The others are just silent with pale faces, not knowing what they are currently experiencing. And Arifin, he just stares around flatly, looking so pissed off by something. He notices Silvy laying on the other patient bed next to him. But he just thinks that the girl is sleeping, and then averts his attention to somewhere else. “The sword?” mumbles Arifin as he finds his katana next to him. “Where is the scabbard?” “Um, we’ve tried to look for it, but…” Tony replies in stammered, not even able to finish his words. Arifin then walks out by dragging his sword. He looks so weak with glazed eyes. But those adults are so terrified as he walks past them. He stops right beside Prof. Harun, and then turns his face toward that old man flatly. He is just silent there for a few moments. …. “
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 044 - Andrew's Making His Move
The man isn’t conscious while sitting tied to a chair. They didn’t tie him that tight. It’s clear he won’t be able to stand up due to the deep wounds Arifin left on his both thighs.Even the wounds only received minimal care, and only were wrapped in bandages just to prevent infection. Nothing more.Ronald pats the man’s cheek so many times to wake him up, until the man wakes up in aghast with a terrified face.“Aaah! Please, don’t kill me!”Ronald scrunches up his face, thinking that this person might have been tortured for interrogation. However, there are absolutely no signs of torture on the person.“Where? Where am I?” asks the man looking around cluelessly.Hannah comes to Ronald and whispers. “Could it be that he was unconscious when they brought him here?”Ronald then unties the man. “Can you get up?”“No way! That kid punctured me on both of my thighs.”A moment later, two of their friends come to inform them that they have secured one of the trucks which belonged to those fa

That self-entitled soldier is just a mercenary. He has no burden to be loyal to the people who hired him. So, there is no reason for him to keep anything a secret at this point.“We are just mercenaries. Our client is the people from The Defiance Atlantis. They gave us those devices to identify people who were affected by the meteor’s radical radiation like you.”“And for what purpose?” asks Andrew.“It’s not our policy to ask the motive of our client. The order is simple, to take these people to a place they had facilitated, where these people will be treated. But before accepting this request, we had already learned about the emergence of awakened soldiers. I didn’t know what this awakened thing before, until I saw that kid with the white hair. And, you!”“And about The Defiance Atlantis?” Asks Andrew by taking his face closer full of intimidation.That man immediately shakes his head fast. “I’m just a lackey in my organization. One thing that I know, The Defiance Atlantis consists
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 046 - The Bounty
In the meantime, the cops are now conducting a brief investigation over the death of the two guards that Andrew killed. Their first suspect is the fake soldier that these people held captive, which no longer be there at the moment.Yet they had also learned from Prof. Irwan that the man was badly injured, and there’s no way that man would be able to harm anyone.Henry examines the destroyed chin of one of those dead guards. “I couldn’t think of any ways to inflict this kind of damage to someone.”“The best I could think of, you heat a metal baseball bat so hot, and then use it to hit him,” Nathan speculates. “But why would anyone go that far just to kill while one can simply use the normal way.”Henry shakes his head weakly. “It’s like he was cremated. But how are you going to cremate someone locally like this. Only his mouth and jaws are gone, while the rest of his face still looks normal?”“It must be the work of that freak!” Prof. Harun accuses.“Hey, hey! Don’t start it again,” Pr
