"Sir!"Tori and the others yelled as they ran toward Adrian."Kids, do you see that trailer? Run to it as fast as you can. Go, now!" Adrian said. The grim reaper-looking monster entered the storeroom with its eerie-looking scythe. The children were severely frightened. They looked toward the trailer as Tori asked, "What about you, sir?""Don't worry about me. Just go!" The children cried in shock as they ran toward the trailer. Adrian said through the communicator, "Padraig, the children are on their way. Send out two men to receive them.""Yes, sir." "I want you all to leave this place the moment the children are in the trailer. Find a safe place. I'll be right behind you."Padraig looked toward the storeroom and saw the grim reaper monster. It looked like a boss from video games, and it had its sights locked on Adrian.Padraig took a deep breath and said, "Koby, Zane, go pick up the children. I'll cover you guys.""Roger!”Two young men ran toward the children, firi
Vroom!!! The trailer's engines roared. The vehicle slammed into several monsters as it sped off. More monsters headed their way, and Elayne's hands trembled as she controlled the steering wheel. Padraig and the others were on their stomach on top of the trailer, firing their guns at the monsters relentlessly. The trailer was stained red with monsters’ blood."Look for the path where the monster numbers in the least and step on it!" Padraig yelled. Even though overwhelmed with fear, Elayne could continue driving and ram into the monsters thanks to her survival instincts. The monsters were crushed beneath the tires as the trailer sped out of the encirclement. "What about Sir Draco?!" someone yelled. "Don't worry about him. I'm sure he has a plan in mind. We need to focus on saving ourselves. Fire!"Rat-ta-ta-ta!!! More and more monsters swarmed toward the trailer. Padraig and the group were in a dangerous situation. Suddenly, their trailer was forced to a halt. Elayne floored
Padraig, not stopping to think who the woman was, yelled, "Quick! We're ditching the trailer!" He pulled the trailer door open and continued, "Elayne, get your students and jump over to the top of that truck."Without any time to think, Elayne led the children out of the trailer and did their best to jump over. However, one of the children, Dustin, was a little too heavy and fell over the side. A sledgehammer instantly swung toward him."Aaah!"Dustin screamed in horror, but a woman immediately dashed out of the front passenger seat and kicked away the sledgehammer. She then held Dustin in her arms and somersaulted to the top of the truck.Padraig and the others fired their weapons, killing the nearby monsters. When everyone was gathered at the top, he yelled, "Let's get out of here!" Everyone jumped to the top of the truck and lay low."Hold on!" The woman got back into the driver’s seat and said, "We’re out!" The truck revved and rammed the monsters over as it sped out of th
As everyone studied each other, Helen smiled and said, "We're the ones who saved you, my friend, so you first. Who are you people and what are you guys doing here?"Padraig decided not to refuse any further and said, "There were six children trapped inside the school, so we came here with the legate to save them. We weren’t expecting to go up against that many monsters.""The legate? Which one?" Helen grew excited when she heard this. The other women went wide-eyed as well, eagerly waiting for Padraig to answer. "War Legate Draco. We've been following him since the chaos started. Sir Draco's trying to gather more forces, but right now, he's trapped in that school."Padraig felt helpless for not being able to assist Adrian. If they were to return to the school, there was a high chance they would sacrifice their lives before they could even save him. Helen and the other women jumped in joy when they heard Adrian's name."It's him, Helen!""He's alive! He's really alive!" "Ha
“Susan, fetch me the wireless radio enhancer, please," Helen said. "Sure thing."A beautiful woman of about twenty-two grabbed her backpack and took out some equipment before jumping off the top of the truck. Her name was Susan Heart, the youngest among the women, but the most tech-savvy one with excellent hacking skills. Susan quickly set up the wireless enhancer and adjusted the frequency. "Done. Try contacting him. You should get a response.""Okay.” Padraig picked up his communicator. "Sir Draco, Sir Draco. This is Padraig. Do you read me?"Meanwhile, the monster kicked Adrian into a wall, causing the entire school to shake. Not only was the monster ridiculously strong, but it also had impressive speed. Adrian was unable to find any weakness even after fighting it for a while.That was when he heard Padraig's voice. "I read you, Padraig. What's your status? Did you manage to get out?"The women jumped for joy when they heard Adrian's voice."He's alive!”Adrian could h
Adrian was not exaggerating in his statement. Helen and her group had gone through hellish training while in Bloody Rose and were experienced fighters. Just one of them could easily take on a hundred of Padraig and his men. Under such circumstances, the power of all thirty-seven of them was a force to be reckoned with. Their assistance would be of great help to Adrian's forces.Helen asked, "Are you sure you don't need our help, sir?""Gold Haven will be besieged at dawn, and the sun is almost up. The people there don’t have enough experience in battle, so I'm afraid they won't be able to hold out for long. They're going to need your help.""Understood. Stay safe. Over and out.” Helen turned around and said, "Sisters, Sir Draco has instructed us to assist those at Gold Haven. It’s just nearby, so let's hurry over.” "Will he be okay alone?" Susan asked. "Relax, he'll be just fine. Let's go." "Yes, ma'am!" “You guys should come with us too," Helen said to Padraig, who nodded i
The human’s firepower was unable to fight off such a large monster army. The monsters began to try and break down the defensive walls. Although it was a difficult task, it would not be long before they succeeded in breaking through Gold Haven's defenses. "Something's up in the sky!" someone suddenly yelled. Everyone looked up and saw giant bird-like monsters with razor-sharp claws. "F*ck, f*ck, f*ck!!!" Cian cursed, never expecting flying monsters to exist. "Focus on your fight! Leave them to me!" Rozi yelled.She jumped up as her sword emitted a powerful light, slashing at one of the bird monsters. After being cut in half, the creature fell to the ground. Rozi used the carcass as a stepping stone to cut down more bird monsters. Meanwhile, on the ground, bullets were being fired as the survivors yelled at the top of their lungs. The monster army seemed to enter a maddened frenzy as they attacked the walls, while the bird monsters swooped in to kill the humans. Rozi grabbed
Adrian raised Dragonbane into the air, lodged the sword into the monster’s foot, and rolled away from the attack. As the monster jumped from the pain, Adrian held up his hand and recalled Dragonbane to his grasp. He then jumped above the monster’s head and slashed its neck. Slash!Drangonbane managed to slice into the monster's weakest part. Screaming in agony, the monster lashed out and tried to grab Adrian. However, he had already retreated to a safe distance. The pain the monster felt infuriated it. The monster stared at Adrian with its deadly gaze as it swung its scythe once more. It was going to be difficult for Adrian to eliminate the monster thoroughly. More importantly, he could not find any weakness that would allow him to kill the creature with a single strike. Thus, he could only return to dodging the monster's attacks while looking for another opportunity.But Adrian’s stamina was depleting, while the monster’s seemed endless. It tirelessly launched attacks, each on
