Doomsday Pillars

In the middle of the cave, Christina, Nam, and the Firebirds and Triad fighters were gearing for a fight. Dozens of wargs were surrounding them and with every second passing, the number of these wolf-like monsters grew.

Of course, the biggest threat was the Alpha Fenrir, a 3-meter hulking figure facing Nam with eyes full of bloodlust.

Christina withdrew her last sword. She, together with Maxine, Chicken, and the thirty fighters divided into three groups forming a triangle around Nam and the Alpha Fenrir. Apart from forming a defense line to face the wargs' siege, they made sure to look for opportunities they could find to provide assistance to Nam.

They divided the fighters who were holding the machine guns and got ready to rain down bullets at the beasts who would dare approach them. As for the wargs who would manage to dodge the rain of bullets, they would be met with lines of sharp spears head-on.

Some of the wargs began snarling before proceeding to dash toward the defensive lines.

Tratatataatat Tratatattatatata

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

Machine-gun bullets were scarce right now, and Christina knew the line would only last a few minutes at most before being overrun. Hence, her full attention remained focused on their main objective.

Nam let out a shout, indicating he had released his special ability. If a person looked closely at his back, they could faintly see his solid muscles and dragon tattoo shining like polished jade. Under this state, Nam radiated pressure and energy beyond the peak stage mortal realm.

ROAAARRRR!! 

Sensing Nam's changes, Fenrir charged forward with the intent to kill.

The Fenrir far exceeded Nam's speed, but Nam somehow was able to keep up by using martial arts steps he had learned throughout the years. But in the situations where he couldn't avoid the attacks, Nam prioritized parrying and protecting the vital areas of his body.

BAMMM!! BAAMMM!!!

AARRGHHH!!

Nam parried the Fenrir's slam but not without taking damage. The strength of the impact from this Alpha wolf was so strong, twice as strong as the force of the black zombie. Other peak stage mortal realm fighters would surely die the moment they got hit. 

Nam couldn't help but feel humiliated and embarrassed remembering his cockiness in regards to defeating this monster. 

"!!!"

BAAAMMM!!!

His lapse of judgment and concentration caused him as the Fenrir's arms managed to hit him in the stomach.

"Uhukkk!!" Fresh blood came out Nam's mouth.

Although he stood his ground, he knew his body wouldn't be able to endure such another heavy blow. Nam took out two knives and gripped them tightly in his hands, forming fists.

ROOOAARR!!!

Alpha Fenrir's attack came after. This time, a wave with its sharp claw.

Nam swiftly lowered his head, successfully dodging its sweep, and hurriedly dashed beneath the warg's thigh stabbing it several times. 

ROOAAAARRRR !!!!

The Fenrir opened its maw and tried to pounce Nam with its razor-sharp fangs, but Nam managed to jump behind the Fenrir and stab it.

HOOWWLLLL!!! HOOWWLLL!!!

The stabs from the two knives, however, weren't enough to critically wound it. The Fenrir let out an ear-deafening howl to show its rage as it flailed around, trying to shake off Nam.

Nam, not daring to waste this opportunity, pulled out the knives in succession and stabbed the Fenrir once again as he firmly stayed on its back.

He was truly a brave street fighter, his recent stunt lifted the spirits of the other fighters.

Although some of Nam's attacks were successful, Nam knew this was far from enough and they didn't have much time. Slowly but surely, they were being overrun by the flow of wargs coming in from outside the hill. 

The Alpha Fenrir tried to grab Nam, but it's broad shoulders and torso became its weakness as it couldn't reach Nam hanging from its back.

ROOOOOAAARRRR!!!

With its anger reaching its peak, the Fenrir threw itself down and rolled on the stone floor.

AARGGGHHH!!! 

Nam couldn't bear the Fenrir's weight and was forced to let go as he pulled back his knives.

Enraged, Fenrir's attacks were getting even wilder! The Fenrir waved its first claw, narrowly missing Nam, but the next claw strike hit Nam's chest hard.

SPLLAAATTT!!!

Blood spilled as three lines appeared on the triad chief's chest. Nam ignored the burning pain on his torso and decided not to jump back, but rather move closer instead. He knew he couldn't compete with its speed and widening the distance was an open invitation for the Fenrir to use its overwhelming speed. Hence, he decided to take advantage of the Fenrir's large body and wide range by sticking close to its body, making it difficult for the Fenrir to wave its arms.

In the slight surprise of the Fenrir, Nam saw an opportunity and jumped...

SPLAAATT!!!

Nam's left knife pierced straight the Fenrir's right eye.

RROOOOAAARRRR!

But the Fenrir also saw this as an opportunity and managed to have its two giant arms hug Nam!

"!!!"

Nam was locked on the Fenrir's grasp and could feel his bones being crushed.

AARGGHHH!! 

Again, fresh blood dripped from his mouth. This time, Nam struggled to break free from its grasp but unable to escape from its powerful grip. 

The Fenrir opened its jaws filled with drool, getting ready to bite off Nam's head. An inch was all the Fenrir needed when its head swayed to the left by a powerful blow from the hard two iron clubs struck from the right where its eyes were injured.

ROOOAAARRRR!!

Distracted by the iron clubs' attack, a sword stabbed to its right thigh immediately followed, making the Fenrir fell to its knees.

STABB!!! 

ROOOAARR!!! ROAARRRR!!!

In that pain, the Fenrir's arms slightly loosened as Chicken appeared from another side and hacked one of the Fenrir's arms, making it finally lose its grip on Nam. Chicken immediately grabbed Nam and jumped back.

Christina said, "Let's retreat! Now!"

"No! Its leg is injured! Now's the chance to finish it!" said Nam as he tried to recover his breath.

Christina looked around the hall and the number of wargs coming in was increasing, if they didn't leave now, they probably wouldn't have another chance of escaping alive!

"Namm!"

"Just a bit more! A little bit more!"

Nam stood and got ready to make a quick attack. Right now, the wolf was still wallowing in pain. It only took a moment before Nam decided what his next target would be and decided on the Fenrir's left eye. With its injured leg and if you add the two blind eyes, then they could definitely finish this warg once and for all.

"Chicken!" Nam gave a signal.

Nam and Chicken both dashed toward the right side of the wolf. They thought with its injured right eye, the Alpha Fenrir's reaction would be slow.

They both jumped at the same time.

"!!!"

SHHHTTT!!

Unexpectedly, the wolf had been expecting their attack and waved one of its arms heavily slamming Chicken, who was in front, down on the floor before waving its other arm. Since Nam was in the air, he wasn't able to dodge and got knocked back as well.

Christina and Maxine rushed forward, but Fenrir picked up Chicken and threw him toward Christina and Maxine. Chicken doesn't have Nam strength, with just that one slam he is already half unconscious.

Fenrir turned around to look at them.

"!!!"

Even though Fenrir's right eye was bloodshot with blood dripping, the Alpha Warg kept its eye fully opened as if it didn't bother him at all. It then proceeded to grab the knife and easily pulled it and before crushing it with its arm. Next, Fenrir drew the sword stuck in his thigh and did the same thing.

Even though blood was pouring out of his eyes and thighs, the wounds immediately closed.

ROOOAAAARRR!!!

"Impossible!" Nam said in disbelief.

Christina and Nam now finally realized the Fenrir's wasn't screaming out of pain but rather out of fury. 

AARGGGHH! 

Screams from Firebirds and Triads soon entered Christina and Nam's ears, they noticed their defensive lines were slowly falling apart along with casualties.

"NAM! We have to retreat now!"

Nam gritted his teeth. Humiliation, embarrassment, and regret somehow welled inside him. In one way or another, he wanted to restore his pride and keep fighting, but seeing how Chicken was gravely injured, as well as his other brothers starting to fall. He decided that Christina was right. He shouted, "Fall back!"

Nam took out an item he had been keeping and threw it at Fenrir.

KAABBOOMMM!!!

The grenade was their signal to retreat and to block the Alpha Wolf.

Maxine picked up the gravely injured Chicken. Meanwhile, Christina led the way toward the tunnel with the least incoming of wargs! 

Christina also took out the final grenade and threw it at the blocking beasts.

KABOOOOMMM !!!!

"Everyone, move !! Now!!"

The explosion caused the wargs on the route to move away, clearing the line straight to the passageway clear. All the fighters headed toward the tunnel Christina was running toward.

"Hurry up! Hurry! " shouted Christina.

Christina cleared the front, opening a path, while Nam was at the very back, watching the smoke where the Fenrir was in order to track the Fenrir's pursuit.

But as soon as the smoke subsided, the wind behind Nam was cut in half as a silhouette of a figure blazed past heading straight toward Christina.

"No! Christina! Watch out!"

Christina felt an ominous presence coming from behind and as soon Nam's shout entered her ears, she jumped! 

SPPPLLAATT!!!

Christina's shoulder felt like it was burning as blood gushed out. If she was late by even a millisecond, it would have been her neck that would have been gushing out blood. She looked forward and saw the hulking figure of the Alpha Fenrir blocking their path to escape. 

It stood there with its eyes burning with rage, drool flowing from its jaws, claws dripping with fresh blood, and staring directly at Christina as if it were saying, "You shall not leave here alive, prey". 

"No!!!"
