Doomsday Pillars

Chapter 296 - Golden Figure

Daisy proceeded to use her [Detect Life Form - Tier 3 Light Spell] which is one tier higher and more accurate than Alex's [Scan Area] spell. This spell has a longer radius of up to 2 kilometers and can sense every life form detected in detail.

The stage 5 zombie is always on the move and it looks like it's just got out of my spell range because I couldn't detect it."

"That's a problem then.." said Alex, rubbing his chin.

"Don't worry, Alex. Daisy still has another way." said Jerry

This time, Daisy raised her hands and lights suddenly came out of her hands, forming into a bird. That bird swiftly flew into the air until there was no trace of it anymore. [Summon Spirit Animal - Bird], a spell that allows its user to form a bird that can scout the area.. This is one of the tier 3 light element spells that is not easy to master.

"I've sent the bird to the last place I detected it. It shouldn't have gone too far."

A moment later, Daisy opened her mouth.

"Found it."

Her hand was shining again as she cast another type of summon light spell, [Summon Spirit Animal - Wolf]. The lights converged until it finally turned into a wolf.

"We should go now before it goes further away. The wolf will lead the way." said Daisy calmly.

Alex was surprised but happy. This young girl is now confident enough to give orders to others.

"Yeah, please lead the way, Daisy." said Alex with a proud smile.

Alex thought that it would be much faster if only the Sky Magus fighters that moved towards the stage 5 zombie, charging through thousands of zombies. Meanwhile, the other 100 Sky realm fighters could follow from behind, slowly finishing off the zombies they passed.

Before they leave, Alex gives everybody in the group a few of his magic scrolls and tells them how to use it. Soon, a group of 9 Sky realm Magus ran, following a wolf as they headed towards the stage 5 zombie. Meanwhile, another 1 hundred figures followed right behind the group.

Nearly a year ago, a stage 5 zombie was able to finish them all off without them being able to retaliate. But now, they were different than before.

It's time for payback.

-

From the sky, one could see 9 silhouettes moving rapidly through the sea of zombies, creating a single line dividing the zombie horde. As Alex and his 8 strongest Sky realm Magus followed the wolf spirit ahead while killing the zombies that were in the way, they noticed an increase in the number of stage 4 zombies around them. The same thought flashed through everyone's mind, it seemed like a stage 5 zombie was nearby.

Alex looked around his surroundings and said.

"Follow me."

He led the fighters towards the 4-story building as the group quickly climbed up and jumped onto the roof of the building using the building's balcony. Dozens of zombies who had followed them earlier began to approach the building and try to climb over it. Unfortunately for the poor zombies, neither of them manage to set foot on top of the building when Aria and Tommy cast their tier 2 spells at the climbing zombies, causing them to lose their grip and fall to the ground.

Alex then proceeded to look at the direction the spirit wolf had been heading before. At the distance, he could see at least two dozen stage 4 white zombies taking guard around the location the stage 5 zombie was. He also could not ignore the sight of the hundreds of stage 2 and 3 zombies who could waste their time when they try to get to the stage 5 zombie position.

Alex turned towards the group and when he saw these trusted people of his, a smile could not help but appear on his face.

"I wholeheartedly believe that we are stronger than before and it will be different from the last time. But still, I want you guys to do this right and fast, not leaving any chance of failure." said Alex firmly.

He then proceeded to explain his plan. When everybody understood the plan, they immediately moved to carry out the plan.

"Let's go!"

They then moved covertly towards the stage 5 zombie, doing their best to not alert the stage 2 and 3 zombies below them using the high buildings around them. When they were 300 meters away from the location of the zombies, dozens of white zombies were aware of their existence despite the fact that they were still on top of a building.

Tommy immediately used his spell [Summon Shadow Fiend] as multiple shadows appeared from the ground and formed into tentacles, immediately shackling several white zombies. The spell was followed by Sergei, who leaped off the building; he excitedly cocked his tier 3 hammer artifact above his head and slammed it towards the ground while he used his favorite spell [Earth Smash].

BOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!

The familiar sound of the earth being leveled echoed in the air when the hammer hit the ground. Dozens of white zombies knocked back by the shockwave and lying on the ground with minor injuries. When the white zombies tried to get up, two streaks of lightning quickly crashed towards them as Oscar and Oliver bolted downward and started cutting down the zombies that had fallen due to Sergei's attack.

The other 4 people quickly took guard in the rear with Daisy who is in charge of reporting if conditions become increasingly dangerous. And sure enough, when they began to attack, a loud scream could be heard from the school building where the stage 5 zombie was. In an instant, the previously unwary zombie horde in the distance simultaneously turned around and madly dashed towards them.

"Sh*t!" exclaimed someone.

"Sergei, Tommy, Oscar, Oliver, and Daisy; stay here and wait for the reinforcement while keeping those zombie hordes outside the school building." Alex ordered. "Meanwhile, Jerry, Arief, and Aria will follow me and enter the building to kill the stage 5 zombie."

"Alright, Alex!" said the ones who would be outside. "Be careful!"

Nodding his head, Alex said. "You too guys. Be careful and safety first."

The 4 of them immediately entered the school building. When they stepped into the building, their eyes were greeted by the sight of the entire building's walls covered in strange slime and several white cocoons hanging from the ceiling and standing on the ground. Others who saw this scene were shocked beyond belief. They then quickly turned their gaze toward Alex, demanding an explanation.

"What's going on here?" asked Aria. "What are those cocoons?"

Alex's expression changed when he saw those white cocoons.

"They are breeding the stage 4 zombie here… No wonder there are so many white zombies appearing." said Alex gravely.

When they tried to walk closer to the cocoons, some of them started to open and something was trying to get out of the cocoons. Seeing this, Alex quickly said.

"Jerry, take care of them while the others hurry up."

Averting their gazes away, they answered. "Alright" "Let's go."

As they ran along the school corridor, they kept finding the same cocoons. Their faces change when they see the number of cocoons and imagine how catastrophic it will be when the cocoons are allowed to hatch. Jerry quickly used [Wind Blade] and aimed it at each cocoon they passed, cutting it in half.

After running for a while, they finally arrive at the school's gymnastic hall. Within the hall, a 3 meter tall golden figure could be seen standing there, the strongest zombie; perfect evolution; mastermind of the invasion; the stage 5 zombie.

Alex who saw this figure could not help but point his finger at it as he said.

"There you are, you ugly face!" he shouted loudly

The standing zombie looked at Alex with a curious gaze. But the next thing it did was shriek loudly, so loud that it could crack a normal person's eardrum.

Reflexively covering his ears, Alex's face turned into a strange expression.

"I guess you are not the same species, aren't you?"

Alex asked Jerry to wait before they kill this zombie because he wants to know if this stage 5 zombie will be the same type of abomination zombie as in Bali who can talk back.

"Just to be sure, I'll beat your ass first before asking again."

Several white zombies came from the other hall door and from the back hallway. Alex planned to immediately beat this f*cker when Arief suddenly said.

"Alex, can you give me 5 minutes with this thing?" said Arief, pointing his finger at the golden figure with a glint in his eyes.

This Death Squad's strongest fighter seems to have harbored his emotions to fight this zombie after a long day of fighting. So, after thinking for a moment, Alex decided to give him the chance.

"Alright then, 5 minutes. No more." answered Alex.
