YM778.TV Chapter 190 - Its Here
The Triad was the Chinese version of the Mafia. The Triad engaged in organized crimes achieving illegal control over local markets, and receiving police protection. When the head of Hong Kong Triad died because of the disease, there was chaos within this gang of criminal syndicates. Through blood and bravery, within the first week of disaster, Nam was voted as the successor and became the leader of the remaining hundreds of the Hong Kong Triad.
The hundred members of the Triad charged alongside Nam and his sworn brothers. Around dozens of them were at peak-stage Mortal Realm and with Christina\'s Firebird, even the men using firearms weren\'t as effective as the two groups. Blood splashed as the zombies\' numbers thinned. Zombies left and right were being killed, creating stacks of corpses. The Triad members wielded sabers, rods, and other pieces of metals.. They were starting to push back the zombies, but then, a horrifying roar sounded from inside the tunnel.
GRROOAAARRR!
A pitch black, zombie emerged from the tunnel through the pile of corpses. The stage three black zombie had appeared!
The police and military soldiers from above the platform immediately shifted their attention to it and fired their guns.
Tratatatatata!
But the skin of the black zombie was too tough for the bullets to penetrate.
GRROOAAARRR!
The black zombie was enraged as it picked up a car and threw it to the soldiers and police on the platform, killing them.
Nam and his sworn brothers, along with Christina and the Firebirds, made their way to the entrance of the tunnel while the rest of the Triad members eliminated the surrounding zombies.
This wasn\'t the first time they had fought and defeated a black zombie, but each time one of this humongous abomination emerged, dozens of top fighters would fall.
Christina and the Firebirds were always cautious whenever they saw this black monster, but the triad fighters carelessly rushed the fight like there\'s no tomorrow.
Looking at the Triad members fighting, Christina sighed.
"Is it bravery, foolishness or is it just a man\'s pride."
Although the Triad acted rashly, they were peak-stage fighters and a force to be reckoned with—especially Nam and his four brothers. A dozen of them managed to contain the black monster. Each time one of the brothers would get hit, Chicken, with his incredible speed, would rush in and save them. But the strongest among them was Nam. Surprisingly, Nam was able to fight the monster with his bare hand. Nam\'s muscular body seemed to glisten, making his muscles as hard as an iron. Nam focused his martial art technique on his fist and was able to damage the black monster.
Maxine, the red-haired Firebird, appeared excited seeing him fight. "I love a man with a tattoo."
"This is no time for joking, Sister. We must always be cautious," Christina said.
GROOOAAARRR!
The black zombie fully enraged, issued an ear deafening roar. It seemed to be calling something and the people were starting to notice the shaking of the ground in a rhythmic pattern.
GGRRROOAAARRR!!!
The shock wave pushed almost everyone away, including the stage one zombies. More zombies rushed out of the tunnel as if it were answering the black zombie\'s call. But then another two more roars sounded from inside the tunnels.
GROOOAAARRR! GROOOAAARRR!
Two more black zombies were coming their way!
Christina finally realized the increasing tremors from the ground, on top of that, this was going to be the first time she would have to fight more than one black zombie let alone three. The situation was escalating rapidly and Christina had to make a quick decision.
Christina shouted to Jenny. "Destroy the tunnel!"
"On it!" Jenny opened a huge green box and lifted a rocket launcher.
Lt. Choi was next to Christina and seemed worried with her decision, but he needed to trust her judgement.
The rocket flew inside the tunnel.
SSShhhhhh... KABOOOMM!!
It only managed to collapse a part of it. The tunnel was too big. When they blew up the smaller train tunnel last night, they had used a dozen of c4s. A rocket definitely wasn\'t enough. Fortunately, the collapsed tunnel seemed to be able to stop one of the black zombies.
Christina needed to buy time for Jennie to prepare more rockets, therefore, Christina needed to finish the first black monster before the second was able to get through.
Christina used her ability and concentrated to fire up the saber in her hands. "Corrie, distract it for a second! Maxine, clear the way for me!"
"Yes, Sister!" Maxine rushed as she smashed the zombies nearby with her iron rods while Corrie with her crescent spear and speed managed to get the zombie\'s attention.
Christina sneak behind the distracted black zombie and stab her flaming saber. One stab, however, wasn\'t enough, Christina and Corrie continued working together. Finally, a few minutes later, the zombie\'s head exploded with fire.
SWWOOOOSSHH
Nam and his sworn brothers stared in amazement at Christina. Although they could finish a black zombie as well, they still had trouble fighting it.
Jennie fired another rocket, and with her psychic ability, she directed the rocket deeper into the tunnel hoping this time it would collapse it entirely.
KABOOOMM!!!
But again it was unsuccessful, instead, the huge ruble that blocked the tunnel\'s entrance was pushed by the black zombie. And behind it, thousands of zombies had gathered running amok.
Christina watched the hordes of zombies nearing them. She was beginning to despair as she could feel the tremors getting stronger. Christina issued a command. "There are too many zombies! We need to retreat!
THUD!! THUD!!
Suddenly the ground shook hard.
"!!!"
Everyone, who was fighting, were startled.
THUD!! THUD!!
"Earthquake!"
The huge tremors continued and a deafening crashing sound sounded from the tunnel\'s entrance.
"RUNN!!!"
The tunnels\' ceilings had cracked and large pieces of concrete fell on the entrance, blocking thousands of the zombies once more.
The tremors became stronger making the people on the ground lose their balance. Water rushed in, flooding the tunnels. Christina and Nam\'s group tried to run as fast as they could, and they could hear the creaking stones inside the tunnel. Finally, the tunnels collapsed, sweeping away the black zombies and the normal zombies, along with the corpses that had been on the mouth of the entrance for a couple of days into the ocean.
The ground beneath Christina and Nam\'s group started cracking and water poured out from the ground. They ran as fast as they could, jumping between the shifting rocks. Finally, they managed to step on higher ground.
Thousands of zombies and dozens of fighters had fallen into the space in between the shifted ground, as if they were pulled by the ground. Dozens of red zombies survived and tried to attack, but dispatched by the hundreds of fighters left, and just like that the fight had ended. The earthquake killed a few of the fighters but everyone left realize that without the earthquake many more would fall. Now thousands of zombies have been crushed by the tunnel and drowned.
Nevertheless, the sudden calm of the ground and the quiet surrounding didn\'t stop Christina\'s fast beating heart. She unconsciously looked at the sky, the same with everyone else.
"!!!"
The sky was changing.
The gray clouds that were covering the whole sky instantly disappeared. Flashes of white lightning swimming across the clear sky like dragons. The white lighting travelled the heavens accompanied by soft rumbling, that sounded like a melody..
It was the weirdest storm in history.
But then, above the white lighting, hundreds of slits of light appeared out of nowhere and began descending. It was as if meteors were entering the Earth\'s atmosphere.
The ground had already stopped shaking, but the wind started roaring. Christina the others covered their faces and rushed to a corner of a building to protect themselves from the wind. Christina looked up once more and noticed that one of the things descending from the skies was heading toward them—to Hong Kong Island!
As it neared Hong Kong Island, Christina could clearly see that it wasn\'t a meteor, but a vertical structure, like a pillar, descending. The Pillar\'s descent caused the wind to become even more powerful, Christina and everyone felt like they were being lifted by the wind, so they grabbed onto a railing to avoid being swept away.
The Pillar\'s structure covered the sun, it was a gigantic figure as tall as the world tallest skyscraper building. Finally, the ground quaked once more and a loud boom resounded as the Pillar planted itself in the middle of the island.
Finally, the Doomsday Pillars had arrived.
