Alex noticed Aridan scraping something on the floor, making his heart jump in shock. "What are you doing? This house is old and weak, do you want to totally destroy it?" He asked angrily, taking out his frustrations on Aridan."I noticed that this part is hollowed out, so we can make a space under the floor tiles where they can pack the remaining snacks, and eat them whenever they're hungry, instead of waiting till we arrive," Aridan whispered, not looking up.Alex sighed and watched him till he made a hole in the floor to pack the canned food and drinks remaining in the bags they came with.He carefully replaced the tile, returning it to its original state.He also taught the twins how to open and close it, before carefully pushing back the old sofa in place to hide traces of foul play."Ariel, do you still feel sick?" Alex asked, examining his body. "Just a little discomfort here and there," he answered with a smile as Alex began to administer treatment on him.Immediately Alex fi
"Boss, the men we sent to Cheong-do all died except the two in the inner circle who managed to escape with grievous injuries! They're currently in our medical center receiving treatment." Tajana shouted wide eyed, making Alex's heart jump in alarm."How did the situation degrade to this extent?" Alex asked, quickly turning around to go back to the house."They said the two monsters were vicious. Worse, there were terrible formations all around the inner part of the cave where they entered to hunt the monsters. According to them, the maze formations in the cave trapped those with weaker cultivations in a delirious nightmare while driving some crazy. Even the two that made it back are very hurt and mentally destabilized," Tajana whispered, running after Alex who was nearly flying in his haste to get to the medical center.The sounds of two men screaming immediately welcomed them to the medical center, making Alex deeply worried."Donovan, Arthur, what happened?" He asked, walking toward
Alex watched the people on the streets, most of them had turned to anomalies, having snake patterns and scales on their body. Some were missing body parts, while others had legs that were gradually turning to snake tails. They all looked very disgusting, nauseous, scary and pitiful."These are victims of the monster's attack. The monsters seem to have a toxin that gradually deforms its victims, till they transform into an abomination. The rest were those that were lucky to lose their limbs without being infected. There's chaos in the city, people are dying in their numbers, not just from the monster's poison but also from hunger and thirst," Tajana calmly informed, looking at his palms."Why didn't you tell me it was so serious?" Alex asked in a low voice, clenching his fist as guilt wracked through him.He took a deep breath, massaging his temples. There was always something to do or attend to since he became the war god. No single day of peace had ever been experienced, making him e
Alex sighed heavily and shook his head."I never said that, I won't let any of you die under my watch. You just need to be vigilant and follow instructions," Alex whispered, sending his consciousness into his storage rings to search it for suitable treasures and techniques which might aid their cause.Soon he pushed down the front seats to make more space, bringing out a golden light pagoda."Emrys, Ikaris, Shadow, get inside the golden treasure pagoda," he ordered, and they quickly obeyed sitting inside the limited space."Boss, the car is already disintegrating. Two have managed to enter the bonnet!" Tajana exclaimed in shock.Alex used the screen on his hands, broadcasting the exterior of the car to check it out. The sight of the car induced goosebumps on his body.Their car was totally covered with the ants, all of the ants were now attached to the car, diligently eating them away.He threw two pills to the front of the car, making it land on the dashboard, while he threw another
Alex quickly shot up to his feet, his tiredness disappearing with lightning speed. The huge shadow continued getting closer by the second, destroying all the trees in its wake. Huge gusts of foul smelling air kept hitting Alex and his men from the giant's direction."These gusts of wind, don't tell me they're breaths from its nose?" Emrys asked wide eyed, looking at the huge shadow covering them.Soon, the silhouette of the ginormous monster became visible to them, making his men gasp in shock."Oh my gosh!" Ikaris whispered, getting his gun ready as they looked up at the monster.Their current situation was reminiscent of David and Goliath. No, compared to the creature they were as tiny as little bunnies.Alex looked up at the creature as it huffed out air, the air oozing out of its nose was enough to cause a tempest, making their clothes flutter with the force of its wind-like breath."Giant hell thunder ape, damn it! Another creature from the ninth layer of hell!" Alex growled, tig
Alex took a deep breath and smiled at the angry giant hell thunder ape swinging tree branches at them. The branches had managed to scrape all of them, except Alex that keeps avoiding it like a pro."Get the explosive bullets and load it in," Alex instructed, running back with the rest."Target its neck and fire!" Alex screamed, shooting out ice bullets towards it.To everyone's greatest surprise, it quickly used the tree to shield its neck from the incoming bullets."Fuck! It has achieved sentience. It can now understand us!" Ikaris cursed, holding his gun steadily while waiting for further orders from Alex.The ape smirked coldly at them, and Alex smiled back in a fearfully creepy way."Target its belly then, OP!" He ordered coldly, making the ape quickly shield the vulnerable spots on its belly while advancing.However, against the ape's expectations, they all offloaded their bullets on its neck, making it scream in pain and horror at their cold deception.The bullets were special k
Alex furrowed his brows while listening to the strange sounds in the distance. He shrugged and continued to eat, trying to regain his energy."Boss, what's that?" Ikaris asked in trepidation, turning to Alex."I don't know, you can go check if you're that curious," Alex said nonchalantly, still slowly eating his food.Ikaris immediately shivered, goosebumps spreading on his body."Nope, I don't want to go alone," he immediately refuted, quickly stuffing his face with food.Alex smiled naughtily and continued to eat. "Whatever it is, we need our energy to fight it. So you all should focus on returning to your top condition within this period of time," Alex whispered, taking huge gulps of water.He sighed and sat crossed legged, circulating his internal energy to heal the wounds his men never noticed were on his body; he soon went into a trance, floating in a half awake, half asleep state as his men rested.Soon his men were done resting, comfortably lying down as they chatted away, ig
Alex watched the three of them screaming in pain and horror."No!! Ariella! Let her go!" Tajana screamed, attacking Shadow."No! Go away! I never killed innocent children. I didn't kill you!" Emrys screamed, blood seeping out of his ears and mouth.The veins on their faces were bulging, and their eyes were wide open with pain and horror as they fought a losing battle against their inner demons, guilt and mental illusions in which they were trapped in.Alex quickly let go of Ikaris, and he instinctively followed Alex, fearing for his safety."Stay back! Do not be a coward! The moment you hesitate or feel afraid in this cave, you die!" Alex roared furiously, making Ikaris freeze at the spot."Atlas holding the world!" Alex growled as a mighty spear totally white in color, shining brighter than the sun, with a globe at its blunt end, appeared in his right hands, shaking the foundation of the cave and making the darkness surrounding the area disperse, as if they were afraid of the white l
