《Doomsday Pillars》60. Surrounded
Advertisement
Hundred thousands of zombies surrounded the warehouse. Its an ocean of zombies, as far as the eyes can see, zombies are everywhere. It was so crowded that the zombie starts pushing against each other. These are new zombies, they just died less than 24 hours ago, most of them still look like a real human. The pale faces and skin, blood spill out of their red eyes, some can be seen from the mouth and all over their bodies.
The Bali Logistic warehouses, placed on the easternmost corner of the terminal, just next to the shore. The warehouse has a size of 4 basketball court. Its ceiling is 8 meters high. It has a balcony on the inside, circling around the inner wall. All the unit sharpshooter position themselves on this balcony. As the ammunition is limited, they focus mainly on a clear headshot target or to help the unit in the ground who were in trouble.
The group currently still position themselves on the warehouse outer gate. The warehouse surrounded by orange colour Balinese style walls. It's only 2 meters high and it has Bali ornamental on the tops. It's not an ideal defensive wall, but nevertheless, it's still a wall. There was no point on closing the gate as the gate only made of simple thin metal, and it's better to let some of them in or they might be stacked and spilled all over the wall. There are 4 entry gates.
The death squad 30 soldiers and the 20 pencak silat disciples combine and divide on facing the zombies from the front gate facing the Denpasar city and the back gate facing the Nusa Dua island Major Sandi with Densus police forces was assigned to the West gate, while Captain Adnan Red Barret took the East gate. It would seem that the north front gate dealing with the most zombies.. but as time passed it really not much difference anymore. The zombies are everywhere.
There were few mutated ones approaching, but they mostly being dealt with by the sniper. Alex can't be bothered with spirit stone at the moment as life are more important. Soon enough there will be enough spirit stone to consume for everyone. But these 90 men are his elites. Their tactical knowledge and battle experience are irreplaceable. Alex has big plans for each of these men.

After 30 minutes the soldier ammunition are finally gone. The risk has just increased to another level.
"We should be able to see the ship on the horizon by now. where are they?"
"It should take them only one hour to reach here, last we heard they have left the port, they should be here any minute"
"I don't feel comfortable about this, try contacting them"
.
.
"No one answered"
"..."
The main objective of the 'Bait' operation was to give a better chance for the Denpasar city survivor to escape to the north. Therefore now that the zombies already drag to this location, the units need to hold them as long as possible. The second objective is to kill as many of the zombies as possible. Now the units have achieved both objectives, its time to leave. There is no other way out to leave other than through the shore and by the ships, Its only 500 meters to the dock and another 400 meters till the end of the dock. that's 900 meters run to the pickup point.
The group could just run and jump to the ocean and wait for the pickup, but for how long? and with the red zombies around, waiting around in the water will be risky.
Alex starts to get nervous when the ammunition was consumed, casualty starts to happen. About a dozen of the units were heavily injured and some were incapacitated. Out of all the gate, The north and the south gate were still the strongest, mainly it's because of the pencak silat disciples. When the guns were emptied, this martial artist were the strongest men on the ground. Alex also has prepared many edges weapon from his storage rings, he starts giving spear and pikes to the 60 survivors and asked them to back the groups. After 15 minutes, Major Sandi group on the western gate were the first to crumble, One of the red mutated zombies manage to get inside the parameter and hurt the major. He was badly injured and was taken inside with all the other injured soldier.
Alex keeps monitoring the situation, Alex secretly planned to train this soldier and fighter to the limits. But now with the ships is still not within sight, the situation has become crucial. its time for him to act.

"EVERYONE MOVE INSIDE THE WAREHOUSE"
It's already hard to defense the outer gate. There are too many zombie corpses on the ground. There was no other place than to move to the warehouse, the units slowly moved insides. they were now pinned down.
From the 150 men defending the place, now about 30 of them were injured, some were unable to move. If more of the men got injured or incapacitated, Alex worried it will be hard for them to rush out when the ships came.
There are two small back doors, 6 rolling gates and one huge gate inside the warehouse, it's 30 meters wide. Alex decided to just lock up all the other doors and open the big gate. Everyone makes a semi-circle formation inside the gate, some who already exhausted from all the fights will act as the reserve fighters.
"You guys hold this line, I will buy more time"
Alex open up his ring and he took out the golem, he also took out two pieces of katana, its the sword he took from the Ninja in Singapore. A golem on his side and sharp swords on both hand. he jumped forward into the ocean of zombies
BAAAAMMMM!!!!
The golem jumped into the group of zombies fully powered and crash them with its big stone bodies.... dozens of the zombies crushed or thrown back a few meters. An opening was created. Alex jumped into the middle of it and start cutting zombies head with the Katana.
SWISH!! SWISH!! SLASH!! SLASH!!
Four zombies head flies with just one body rotation. Alex took out a four grenade from his storage rings and threw it in four separate locations.
KABOOMM!!... KABOOMM!!... KABOOMM!!... KABOOMM!!...
There are four more opening created, Alex jumps to the front, he's now right in the middle of these zombies, A high stage mortal realm with a medium level movement techniques. Even a hundred Deathsquad soldier find it hard to touch him. Alex movement was really fast and his hexagram step made him able to move around without being cornered. His strength also made him able to cut zombies heads like cutting tofu. There was no movement wasted...
.
Jump to the front... SLASH... head rolls.
.
Roll back... SWISH... head rolls
.
Alex move in a circle formation, none of the zombies can stop him.
.
GROOAAAARRR!!
.
One of the red mutated one jump at him.. this could be a problem.
.
BANG!
The red zombie head explodes, it seems Aria still have a few bullets left, she glad she saved it. A big smile was seen from her face, then she aims to another red zombie behind Alex.
BANG!
another head explodes. this red zombie moves faster than a normal human and its movement is quite unpredictable, most high skill snipers need a few shots to get a hit, but not Aria.
With Aria watching his backs from the unpredictable red zombies, Alex manages to slaughter the zombies easily.
SWISH!! SLASH!! more heads rolls.
His movement makes an impression to all the spectators. Some of them got aroused and get the spirit to jump and help. five pencak silat specialist move forward and join the fight. It's Rama and the four white sash fighters. These five are the master level who got the title 'pendekar', They are the best fighter among all the pencak silat society.
There are now 3 layers of defense, Alex right in the middle of the zombie waves. The golem and the five fighters on the second layer, then all the rest straggler will be dealt with the rest of the group inside the warehouse. Another 15 minutes have passed... there are just too many zombies. Alex manages to kill a few of the red zombies who passed through Aria sight. At this time he already broke two katanas, these normal swords were just not strong enough. Fortunately, he still has a few more as spares. The zombie that fight the golem, face even more tragic ends. The golem was the perfect zombie killer, its body is hard as a rock and each punch would crush the zombie's head... Zombies bodies start to pile up in front of the warehouse gate.
.
.
Finally...
.
Aria said "The destroyer is in sight"
