Doomsday Pillars

Seeing the giant monstrosity, almost non-human figure in front of him, that roaring savagely, as if it was ready to consume the whole world, Alex couldn't help but question himself if the creature before him was really Adam.

Alex had never really been that close with the young man before, as their interactions were not many. The two of them only met for a short while.  However, seeing the abomination before him, he was sure about one thing: the sight, the feeling and the emotion Alex felt from this monster. This huge monstrous figure in front of him was surely no longer human. 

After her hysterical screams that could have deafened the zombies, who already lost their five senses, Daisy tried to approach the figure, as she immediately broke out of the ranks. Thankfully, Melissa and Rick managed to stop her at the last moment by grabbing and holding her on the waist.

At the moment, despite its raging roars, the figure looked lost and confused, as if it didn't know its purpose in life.

Alex quickly stomped his legs as his body shot, not towards the baffled monsters, but the smirking chemist. In the blink of an eye, followed by drifting dust, the glowing wooden sword already brandished near the man's neck, an inch away from taking his life.

"What did you do to him?" Alex asked calmly, but the tone of his words exuded cold hostility. 

Cold sweat flowed down his back, as the chemist knew any wrong words he said would spell the end of him. The presence of a sword near his neck did make the chemist startled and scared. However, it still didn't manage to remove the smile plastered on his face.

"Mr Alex... please, curb your anger. I will tell you everything you need. There's no need for this threat..." the chemist spoke fluently. 

Upon hearing that, Alex replied, while of course, still keeping the sword near, "Then explain quickly! That young man is very important to us."

Upon hearing Alex's words, the chemist nodded his head, as if he was agreeing with Alex's statement. "I see... Indeed, Mr Alex. That young man is also very important to me… but you see, Mr Alex. I have lost control of him for days now." 

While Alex was still stupified by his last statement, the chemist kept his smirk and continued, "Therefore, I hope you could tame 'him'."

As soon as the words were spoken out, the monstrous 'Adam' seemed to finally waken out of his confused state and found a target. He swiftly walked out of the cage and leaped into the air. Its figure created a massive shadow on the ground, making those who were fighting wondering if the night had come. 

His figure landed where the battlefield was, causing a tiny quake and ground elevated to the air. Its successful landing managed to earn him the deaths of several unlucky people, who got squashed by its massive figure.

The sudden earthquake startled everyone, as 'Adam' began to run amok on the battlefield. Surprisingly, 'Adam' did not only attack the fighters on Alex's side, but also the Heavenly Gate members, whether the transformed or the non-transformed one.

Alex was startled when he saw the prowess of the 'Adam', and how it managed to easily wreak havoc on the battlefield. Realizing the situation would turn for the worse, he quickly shouted, "Everyone, move back and retreat! Do not go near that thing!"

He then quickly grabbed the chemist by his neck as their eyes were only inches away, "How to stop and not kill him!!"

However, the chemist laughed at the question thrown at him. "Stop him and not kill him? Hahahaha! How can you kill something you cannot stop?"

Alex released his grip and threw the man to the ground. He then called Theo to continue 'questioning' him. He himself had another thing to do, he needed to stop that thing.

Despite Alex's order to get away from the monstrous figure, the reality was not that ideal. The thing moved so fast and there were just too many people on the battlefield, causing the retreat to be slow; the casualties inevitably kept accumulating.

Seeing the monstrosity was freely wreaking havoc, Alex knew its death was inevitable. The three meter tall figure was even able to twist one of the transformed Heavenly Gate members apart like a piece of cloth. The poor thing had the prowess of a Sky realm Knight, but in the face of this new monster, it looked like killing a fragile puppy.

In reaction to the havoc brought by the abomination, both sides, which previously fiercely fought with each other, stopped their actions immediately. In panic, the fighters in both groups instinctively began raining bullets towards the monster.

As expected, the bullets, who still managed to deal a hit to the transformed human, did not even manage to faze him at all, instead they only made him angrier. It swiftly stretched its outlandish hand and grabbed one of the nearby, unlucky transformed Heavenly Gate humans and beat it into a pulp, before throwing it towards the troops like one throwing away trash.

Whether it was because of the rain of bullets it received or for just some completely random reason, the huge reddened monster, who was previously busy bashing the Heavenly Gate members, was currently leaping in the air. His direction? Towards the retreating troops. 

However, before the figure could land on the ground and wreak havoc, it was greeted by a huge fireball crashing into it mid air like a meteor, causing it to be pushed back and fall to the ground, away from the retreating troops.

It was Rama with his body covered with [Fire Aura], as he leaped into the air and crashed into the abomination with his tier 3 spear artifact brandished. The unexpected and abrupt attack blasted the monster into the ground. However, the move that should have been able to pierce any materials only managed to create a small wound on the monster's body.

Seeing the result of his action, Rama wiped his eyes twice with his shaking hands to make sure what he was seeing was reality. "What is its body made of? It's so hard my arms are numb because of it!"

While the monster's attention was caught by Rama, followed by a strong gust, a figure jumped to the monster's back and stabbed two huge daggers into its neck. It was Ardeth with his pair of tier 3 daggers.

Blackish blood splattered into the air as the daggers went through the monster's skin, wounding it. Seeing the blood in the air, Daisy screamed, "Don't!!!"

However, to everyone's surprise, the reddened figure seemed unaffected by the wounds, as it swiftly proceeded to grab Ardeth's body and threw him towards Rama, hard. Ardeth's body spun in the air as his figure was barreling in the air towards the stupefied Rama.

Seeing the incoming 'missile', Rama quickly opened his arms as he tried to catch Ardeth. But to his surprise, the monster rushed just behind Ardeth's body, with its both hands stretched out trying to grab them.

The unexpected movement caught the two of them off guard, especially Rama. Recalling about the previous victim who was grabbed by it, being twisted like a piece of cloth, Rama's face instantly turned pale.

CRAANKK!!

Thankfully, the figure was stopped, as its hands were crashed upon by a glowing translucent barrier. The barrier was the result of a [Halo] spell casted by Daisy, who was standing not far from Rama.

"Adam!! It's me, Daisy! Don't you recognize me?! Adam!!" Daisy frantically shouted, while waving her hand.

Upon hearing the loud shout, the reddened figure stared at Daisy. Its expression seemed to be in curiosity. It then raised its arms and destroyed the barrier into pieces before it stretched one of its hand towards Daisy, trying to grab her.

Splatt!!!

The hand suddenly separated from its arm by a wooden sword engulfed with raging flames. After cutting the monster's hand, Alex quickly dashed next to Daisy, "Head back! Everyone get back!"

From the way the situation went, it appeared none of the Sky realm fighters could handle this monster, not even the middle stage Sky realm Magus. Therefore, only Alex with his high stage Sky realm strength could have a chance to deal with this abomination.

To prove that, Alex managed to cut the monster's hand with his tier 5 weapon. But as expected, the missing hand was slowly growing back like a lizard's tail. When the figure just stood there recuperating its wound, it gave the troops the time to retreat. Alex made sure everyone took a huge distance from him and the figure, as he knew the fight would be dangerous and fierce.

"Daisy, listen to me. You should get away from here... Go!" Alex sternly said, keeping his eye on the figure.

Hands shaking, tears spilling, Daisy grabbed Alex's clothes and said, "Please… Brother Alex. Please, help him..."

"Daisy, if you get hurt from the process, even if we could save him, it would be for naught. Do you understand me?"

Wiping the tears on her eyes, Daisy nodded and replied, "I understand, Brother Alex."

It took less than a minute for the figure to regrow its hand. Seeing 'Adam' was ready, Alex swiftly buffed himself with everything he got. Because he knew, he was going to need it.
