179 Corpses (1/2)

Not more than 20 minutes ago they were still having fun at a wedding. But now, there they lay on the cold ground mutilated almost beyond recognition. The corpse of the woman wearing a white wedding dress was now drenched with blood while hugging the head of the man she just married. Around her were dozens more corpses that were severely disfigured.

Amongst the pile of corpses, Alex recognized Ark and Dinda, the two new spirit enhancers among these corpses.  The twins, who were quite close to them, saw their corpses and immediately threw up. They couldn't handle that horrible sight.

The scene in this place made Alex remember the massacres in his previous life. Even though he was accustomed to seeing corpses like this, his heartbeat raced as he hurriedly ran towards the sound of the fight. It sounds no more than 200 meters. But that distance somehow felt so far away

”!!!”

In the middle of the journey, a figure of a bloodied man leaned on the wall of a house. Alex easily recognized the large figure and immediately approached him.

”Raufgar! Raufgar!”

The big man was losing consciousness. Blood was flowing from the top of his head and soaked his entire face. He was dying.  Raufgar felt a presence approaching him. He tried hard to talk.

”Please... please... mama... my mom...”

Even though he was suffering, Raufgar was still worrying about his mother who would be abandoned.

Alex immediately summoned a panacea serum and injected it on Raufgar's body.

Alex didn't dare to tarry long and asked Darius, who was also heavily injured, to stay with Raufgar. Alex and the others then left in a hurry.

A few moments later, the group arrived in front of a multi-story building. Alex was about to head in but a figure ran out.

”Daisy!”

Daisy was also injured while carrying the unconscious Tommy on her back. She anxiously looked at the newly arrived group of fighters.

”We need to run! This monster... this monster. It's different!”

Alex immediately checked Tommy's condition. Fortunately, it looks like Tommy just fainted.

”Daisy! Where are Theo and Cindy? Where?”

Daisy looked at one of the third-floor windows behind her and said, ”They're—”

An explosion unexpectedly crashed behind the third floor's window as two bodies flew out.

”!!!”

Nathanael, who could run the fastest, immediately catched one of the figures. A blond woman, it was Cindy.

While Alex approached another figure at once. It was a man whose entire body was covered with blood and burns. Alex knew this person extremely well. ”Theo!”

Alex, in a flash, gave Theo a panacea serum and right away inspected Theo's pulse.

Although Cindy was covered with wounds, she didn't look as ragged as Theo. She quickly ran to Theo, who was shaking violently, as blood permeated his clothes.

Cindy was panicking. Even though this woman liked to joke around a lot, her real, deepest emotions were unraveling. For the past three months, Theo was the person she most often teased.  She screamed at the top of her lungs.

”Theo!!! Stupid man!!! Why did you act like a hero huh?!”

Her throat hurt, but she kept on calling for him.

”Stupid man! Theo! WAKE UP!”
