Doomsday Pillars

Chapter 155 - A Threat

A little girl who ran away to Alex was his 7-year-old daughter named Tiarra. She immediately ran hugging him, but Alex's reaction confused her...

"!!!"

"Noo!! ...Daddy! Your body is full of blood!!"

At that time, some parts of Alex's body were bleeding from a scratch from Nathanael's weapon. But Alex's pain reaction did not came from this external wound, but at this time Alex's entire body was in pain due to imposing Hexagram level 4 techniques for a long time. But in front of his daughter, he still tried to look strong.

"Easy girl, this little wound is not enough to bring down Daddy"

Alex looked down while his eyes remained fixed on Admiral Gerrard and his troops who were ready to wait for his orders.

"Tiarra, tell me what happened?"

"Daddy, uncle Erik caught some unknown visitors who tried to sneak into our house just now..."

Alex glanced at the troops who increasingly surrounded the battle area. Now there are nearly five hundred of Alex's troops encircling fifty American troops. Erik was seen standing between two little girls. Tiffany, Alex's first child, and Vina, Erik's child, because they were the same age, Vina and Tiffany were currently good friends. While Erik was appointed as the head of the guard squad of the family residence. At this time Erik was seen feeling guilty for failing to hold Tiarra to run closer to Alex.

(Erik was the man from a small village in Bali who in his previous life saved Alex, however, he and his whole family died in a zombie attack, except Vina)

Two people approached Alex, Devita immediately took Tiarra away from the middle of the field, while Cahaya came to report on current conditions.

Kenny, from the other side, was panicked

"Mr. Alex, what's going on? Let's talk about everything carefully. There is a misunderstanding here."

Hearing a response from Kenny, Cahaya gave a signal to one of the troops and soon they brought out a number of people in American Army uniforms who were bound.

Kenny as a CIA agent could immediately read the situation. He immediately sought an answer from the admiral. But now the admiral's face looks pale and speechless. It seems like the backup plan expected by the admiral failed miserably.

Alex asked Cahaya

"Is anyone hurt?"

"Don't worry, they haven't had time to do anything, everyone was caught while hiding. Thanks to that young girl. "

At this time, everyone in the field was aware of what had happened, Admiral Gerard sent one unit to approach Alex's family when they were busy competing. It seems that this competition became the admiral's strategy to attract the attention of Alex and the whole special forces to the arena and make the task of the special team easier to sneak. The reason why they did that seemed to make them as a hostage and threatened Alex to come with them to America. Luckily, Daisy, a teenage girl who was a new member of Alex's Special Forces who had the special ability to detect, managed to find them before they could do anything.

Alex took a deep breath.. The situation at that time was very clear, five hundred special forces of Alex was ready to fire while fifty troops of Admiral was ready to shoot back.

"Admiral, I really didn't expect you to do something like this ... a US admiral acted like a street thug, holding children hostage just to complete a mission?"

The admiral went deep in contemplation and could not answer

Kenny also asked "Is this true, admiral?"

Finally Admiral Gerard answered unwillingly

"Yes. it is true ... desperate situation requires desperate measure ..."

"Kenny, don't you see what was happening with the world today? When the apocalypse arrived, many naval soldiers decided to leave their posts to return to their hometowns looking for their families. Many of them choose to become deserters just like that. Do you think it's easy to gather 4000 crew to carry out this mission? All of us who come today are soldiers who remain steadfast in carrying out the mission even though they do not know the fate of their families. All for the mission ... and we will do anything for the success of this mission ... I will not let us just go home empty-handed."

Kenny was stunned...He hated that action, but he could understand why Admiral Gerard did it ..

Alex kept going...

"Your mission has failed, Admiral. You're under siege, just give up."

"No way ... Mr. Alex. I still have another trump card ... I don't want to do this ... But I have to ... I'm sorry"

The Admiral turned to his army

"Troops, ready to take orders"

"Sir, yes sir!!!"

"What I'm going to do now will greatly tarnish our honor. But right now I need you to understand and be prepared to sacrifice your lives for this mission ... do you understand! "

"Sir, Yes Sir" All 50 members of the American special forces on this field were seen to be united in following the admiral's orders

Kenny was increasingly worried about what the admiral planned...

"What will you do, Admiral?"

Admiral Gerard turned around and looked back at Alex ... he took a radio from his pocket ... A large hand-held radio...

"Skipper to Midway come in ..."

"!!!"

"Operation is a Go!! Target all cannons right in this position ... ready to fire!! "

"!!"

Everyone was dumb founded ... if it was true that the Midway warship with its eighteen giant canons shot this area simultaneously, the hotel would be leveled to the ground.

Kenny, who was standing next to him immediately cast his protest.

"Admiral ... This is not a solution ...Please cancel this order ... We can find another way ..."

The admiral was indisposed but he still stared at Alex...

"As soon as I arrived and saw the condition of this island, I realized without a specific strategy, it seemed like this mission would fail. My decision is unanimous. If you have nerves to even move, I will not hesitate to order the Midway ship to shoot... Mr. Alex, I promise not to hurt anyone on this island if you come with us immediately. "

The admiral tried to threaten Alex for the safety of everyone in the hotel, but when he looked ahead, he saw Alex was not worried at all ... Alex calmly answered.

"You're actually a good admiral, and I like your character ... But by trying to threaten using my family, you've made a big mistake ..."

"I'm sorry Mr. Alex ... believe me I promise I will do my best to bring you back here as soon as possible."

"It's impposible" .. Answer Alex

"Mr. Alex, do you think I'm just bluffing?"

Alex was curious and glanced at Theo, and Theo nodded. It seemed like the admiral was very serious about blowing up everyone in this field for the sake of the success of his mission.

"Impressive ... Very good... Such a great determination for your country ... truly amazing ... unfortunately for you, my paranoia has rendered your plan unsuccessful"

"!!!"

The admiral was taken aback one more time ... he had only just realized that until now there had been no answer from the Midway Ship through his handheld radio. His face turned pale again with all balled up  ... Soon after, a certain voice heard from the radio ... but it was a voice of a woman ..

"Report, this is Aria.. We have taken over Midway.!"

That voice ... The admiral recognized that voice ... It was the voice of a woman who had just won the competition and brought the victory flag to Alex..

When Alex realized something odd he immediately sent Aria and Daisy. And it turned out to be true. Daisy helped Erik and easily caught the troops hidden near Alex's residence. If indeed the American military was found to have secret operations, Alex had ordered Aria to immediately take the Midway battleship. Aria gathered some of the best deathsquad people to dive and sneak in to Midway ... with Aria's special power, an ability to turn invisible, They didn't realize Aria's presence until it was too late. Midway's command center then was in Aria's hand.

"..."

Alex slowly approached the American troops who were ready to fire at any time ... but the firing order from Admiral Gerard did not come down either. Alex slowly took the handheld radio from Admiral Gerard's hand.

"Another excellent job Aria"

Alex tapped the admiral's shoulder and said

"Admiral Gerard you have lost ... I don't see the necessity of having a bloodshed ... Do you remember when you asked me about the reason I chose Winter the American soldier to represent us? To put it simply, from the very beginning I never considered you guys as the enemy... we currently have the same enemy ... the end of time that threatens the salvation of humanity ... And now humanity needs you and your troops very much. There is no need for bloodshed here. order your men to lay down their weapons and surrender. "

The admiral has no other way out ...

"Stand down soldier!!"

Alex gave the order and every each of the American troops were bound and taken to a place of detention ... before leaving, the admiral said,

"Mr. Alex, although now this word no longer has a meaning, but believe me I never planned to hurt your family."

Alex looked back at Theo and he nodded. Admiral Gerard asked again.

"What are you going to do with us?"

Alex sealed his mouth and let Admiral Gerard be taken away ...

When all the American troops had released their weapons and started to be carried out one by one, Devita and Tiarra returned to Alex.

"Daddy, when will you play with Tiarra?... Daddy has been gone for so long and hasn't played with Tiarra since you returned ... Daddy ... are you ok ...? ... Daddy?"

Alex's vision suddenly blurred, his arms and legs suddenly felt weak .. his whole body felt stiff .. It seems like this is a side effect of imposing a level 4 hexagram technique with an ordinary mortal realm body ..

"I'm sorry, Tiara ... Daddy needs to have some rest for a little while ...:"

Alex suddenly staggered to the point of falling, fortunately Theo caught him and immediately examined him ..

"Daddy !! daddy !! "

Devita was also waiting for Theo's diagnosis worriedly ... Theo was a doctor before he became a priest, he could easily check Alex's health ..

"Don't worry, he is just tired ... he needs to take a rest for a few hours. After that he will get better ..."

Alex was helped to get back to his bedroom and took some rest .. his wife, Devita, looked at Alex who was sleeping with great concern.
