Doomsday Pillars

Chapter 31 - 1 Vs 30

Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer

One People, One Nation, One Leader

It is the Nazi slogan.

The National Socialist German Workers' Party, or commonly referred to in English as the Nazi Party was the political party in Germany that was active between 1920 and 1945. They created and supported the ideology of a master race, in which the Nordic, a predominant race among Germans and other northern European peoples, were deemed the highest in the racial hierarchy. They believed that the Nordic people ultimately originated from the lost continent of Atlantis, and as they are the superior race, they are entitled to expand territorially. Hence when the party-controlled German state, they organized the systematic genocidal killing of an estimated 5.5 to 6 million Jews and millions of other targeted victims, in what has become known as the Holocaust.

There are some who believe that part of the Nazi party is still influencing the world today in the shadows.

Robert the small and funny guy, suddenly pulls out a gun and aims it at Aria. He has become a completely different person. This is the guy who has been helping the professor for a few years.. He helped the doctor in establishing the science of human civilization foundation. And has been actively taking part in securing all 6 relics.

"What do you think you're doing?!"

Cindy is the first to actually shout, they have worked together for the past few years, but Robert this time looked like a completely different person. His smile and friendly face were now all gone... This guy Robert could really succeed in Hollywood.

"Nothing personal, I have been assigned to watch the professor, the Führer is highly interested in the professor's work for some time."

Robert switches back to his smiling face. He moves closer to where Aria is standing and puts his gun on her head.

Robert continues,

"Carefully hand over the item that you found inside the ruins. Also don't you dare bring out that rock monster from before or I will shoot your pretty little girlfriend in the head."

Alex slowly said...

"First she's not my girlfriend, secondly, I think you are standing too close, that woman can easily grab your…"

Aria got Alex's hint and suddenly turned around real fast, held the gun with one arm, and punched Robert's stomach with another. Suddenly their situation is now the opposite, Robert becomes Aria's hostage in less than 1 second.

Cindy felt excitement while watching the scene, she thought that Aria looked so cool.

Aria shouts,

"NOBODY MOVE OR I WILL SPLASH THIS GUY BRAIN OUT!!!"

There are 30 gunmen watching the scene. The guy in the front who looks like the leader, the only one wearing a white shirt, moves forward and speaks.

"Every each one of us here is ready to die for the Führer."

"Just give us the artifact and also the professor, we don't want to kill you, not just yet anyway..."

The 30 gunmen slowly move in, it does appear that they really are not worried that Aria is gonna kill Robert. Aria is not sure what to do, the situation they are in now is very dangerous. They are about 20 meters away from the temple's entrance, she might be able to safely run to it, but what about Cindy and the professor. She wasn't worried about Alex's abilities, she had already seen Alex's skill in the academy. Now that she thought about it, Alex must have some special move to tackle all of these 30 men... If it is Alex, he probably has a way to get out of this predicament...

Cindy getting more worried and said,

"What should we do? Can Alex fight as you do?"

"Don't worry about Alex. He is much stronger than me. Just wait and you will see his skill."

"Really? Right, he also has that rock monster..."

The 30 men have advanced closer, they are now only 50 meters away. Alex finally makes a move, he slowly moves his hands raising it up high.

And then he said...

"I SURRENDER! DON'T SHOOT! PLEASE DON'T SHOOT!"

"..."

"..."

"Please, I will give you the artifact just don't come any closer."

Cindy gave a weird look to Aria...

"..."

Aria was also disappointed...

"Can't we at least negotiate? Do you want money? I have money! Or maybe we can share the item what do you think?"

"Stop playing around, just throw me the artifact!"

"Ok, ok."

Alex complies, he takes out an item from the storage ring and throws it to the guy.

SHHHHHhh....

The guy wearing the white shirt catches the item. Upon looking at the item, he was visibly shocked...

"Grenade!!!"

KABBOOMMMMM!!!!

Alex shouts,

"RUN TO THE TEMPLE!!"

Alex summoned the golem and ordered it to carry and protect the professor and Cindy. Aria gives Robert a hard punch, she places him on her front to become a human shield and also runs to the temple entrance. After making sure that everyone has retreated, Alex followed them behind. A sound like rain, but instead of water falling down from the sky, raining bullets can be heard behind them. They should be safe for now.

There are about 30 men equipped with automatic rifles. Although Alex could run fast and could probably dodge the bullets, there were 3 other people next to him. So he can't be hasty about this. With Alex's current strength he can't fight 30 fully armed men from a long distance. Luckily, he remembered the grenade he got from the black snake island. Alex plan was to make sure that they were all closer to each other so the grenade explosion would injure more of them.

Inside the cave, Alex plans to block the enemy on the maze and in the first chamber. Aria wanted to help, but Alex disagreed and told Aria to bring Cindy and the professor to the secret chamber which was the furthest area. She will be the last defense in case the enemy manages to get past Alex. They have to stay there until Alex comes and picks them up. Cindy tried to call the police but there was no signal inside the temple ruins. Alex then gave Aria a rifle, Cindy also asked for a pistol, apparently, she had shooting experience before. Alex wonders if this is considered normal for an American girl. The professor was hoping that the leader with the white shirt was blasted by the grenade, hopefully, the rest of the crew will leave the site.

Outside the cave, the group of people were also discussing their plan. Robert was still alive and participating. He knows the temple's ruins really well. Robert also told them about Alex's golem which had amazing strength. Other than that, he thinks the girl named Aria should be Alex's bodyguard. There should be nothing special with Alex other than his storage ring that should have many weapons inside.

"We lost 3 of our men due to that grenade, but I don't think they will be using any explosives while inside, it's an underground ruin it will be suicidal."

"As for the rock golem, I have a conjecture that if we kill the owner, the golem will stop working."

If Alex saw the man who just spoke, he would be surprised. The person speaking was the guy wearing the white shirt who was supposed to be killed by the grenade. This guy doesn't appear to have been injured at all, not only that, this guy seems to know much about the golem as this guy is also wearing the same ring.

"Let's go, the Führer will not forgive us if we fail."
