Adopted Soldier-Chapter 401

Chapter 401

As Alex and the others were speculating as to what happened to Dan's body, Oliver and Sayaka were in a room that was stained with blood . The whole place looked like it came out from a horror movie . In the middle of the room were two bodies, and these two were people Oliver knew . When Oliver saw their bodies he gritted his teeth .

"Joseph . . . I'm sorry . " Oliver then looked at the body next to Joseph . Unlike Joseph's body who still somehow retained its form, the body next to it wasn't so lucky .

"Specter . . . No . . . Raphael, you must have gone through hell, but as expected of you, it seems like you endured it until the end . " Raphael's body that was full of holes, cuts, burns, missing a few limbs and had his hair plucked out, even with all that done to him for some reason Raphael looked content .

"Those torturers of yours must've had a worse time than you . . . Thanks, my friend . . . May you find glory on the fields of Valhalla . " Both Oliver and Sayaka offered a silent prayer . Sayaka then held onto Oliver's hand . Oliver looked at his supportive girlfriend and smiled .

"Let's bring them down and give them a proper send-off . " Sayaka nodded agreeing to Oliver's suggestion .

. . .

Oliver and Sayaka carrying the bodies of Raphael and Joseph caught up with Alex's group . Oliver then asked Rachel for a favor .

"Rachel, can you burn their bodies? I want to send them off as proud warriors . " Rachel didn't question who these people were and simply nodded her head as the group headed outside the base . Once they were outside, Rachel set the two bodies ablaze .

Even though Alex and the others knew that doing this was dangerous, but for Oliver, they accepted the risk . The smoke from the burning bodies rose up towards the sky, making Alex's and the others position known to every living being that could see the smoke .

Still, with Rachel's powerful flames it only took a few seconds before their bodies turned to ash . Once they were gone, Alex quickly told the group to move . Yet as if on cue the moment he spoke of leaving other creatures came out from within the forest .

Five giant bears with claws sticking out the side of their mouth and backs appeared . The bears look to be at least ten meters tall .

Alex and the others knew that they wouldn't be able to run so as per usual, they decided to fight . It was then another group of people appeared . A bullet pierced through the skin of one of the bears, and then another bullet precisely hit the same spot, and another and another all on the same spot . There was only one person that Alex knew who could pull off such perfect marksmanship, but even with his skill, that move would've proven a difficult task, as he was shooting at a moving target in that distance .

The five bears then roared furiously, it was then another creature came out and attacked one of the bears . The creature that appeared looked like a tiger that had wings, if that wasn't surprising enough someone was actually riding that tiger .

"Alex long time no see . " Matthew happily greeted as he jumped off the winged tiger's back .

. . .

While Alex and the others were having a reunion with Matthew and the squad, back in Anita's place Michel was able to capture the pigman alive . Anita was examining the body of the pigman . She was expecting to find an organ similar to the new organ that sprouted within their bodies, but after careful examination, there was no such thing inside the pigman .

In fact, except for the thicker skin and denser muscle mass, the pigman has the same structure as a human before the change . From this Anita had formulated numerous new theories as to what was happening to them and the world . So, for now, she needed to narrow those theories down . While Anita was doing her thing, Michel and the kids were looking at Anita's newborn .

"So what are you going to name him?" Michel asked . Anita stopped what she was doing and looked at Michel with a smile on her face .

"The name of this child was already picked long ago by his father . His name is Sigmund, Sigmund Resteti . A name that signifies everlasting victory in the old Berdonian scripts . Lyner wanted our child to be ever victorious in all his endeavors . "

"That's a nice name . "

"Baby Sigmund, look here it's your big sister Lilitth . "

"And I'm your big sister Niki . " The two little girls who finally heard the name of the new baby kept on calling him .

. . .

While Michel and the others were talking about Sigmund, Rika who was out with Hina had just slain another monster . They have been running around for a while now, but they still haven't met any other survivors . Based on her initial impression of what's going on, most of the people on the streets died while the change was happening . The others that survived the change, weren't able to withstand the sudden attacks of the monsters .

While carrying Hina, Rika told the little girl to close her eyes and only open them when she says it was safe . Since, throughout the streets, countless dead bodies could be seen, some deaths more gruesome than the last .

Rika didn't want to expose her young daughter to such carnage . Even though this was already the current world that they are living in, Rika decided to somehow protect some of Hina's innocence for as long as possible .

As she was thinking of what to do next Rika finally heard the voice of another human being screaming for help . Rika quickly dashed towards the position of the other person . She then saw a man shooting out fireballs from his hands being surrounded by what looks to be humanoid cockroaches, they might even look like aliens, but the way they moved really reminded Rika of those creepy crawlers .

The man that was shooting fireballs was surrounded and the creepy crawlers were able to easily evade his fireballs . It was then Rika swooped in with one swing of her sword she cleaved through several of those creepy crawlers . She then sliced the remaining creepy crawlers once all the creepy crawlers were dead she looked at the man and said, "come with me if you want to live . "
