Doomsday Pillars

Chapter 348 - God Essence



The battle at the Heavenly Gate's main headquarters was mostly wrapped up after the red monstrosity turned into a human and collapsed in the middle of the fight. The only thing left was receiving those who were surrendering and 'clearing' those who were too headstrong.

Soon, the remaining Heavenly Gate members, seeing the situation was hopeless for them, swiftly surrendered themselves. Naturally, there were some extremists in these groups of devotees, those that could not and did not want to be helped. Hence, there were some struggles until the end. Those people were bestowed with swords' slashes and raging bullets on their heads and bodies.

As for the chemist, the right-hand man of Hafiz, he surprisingly accepted his fate with a wide smile, confusing the other fighters with his bizarre reaction. It looked like the chemist was truly happy knowing his best creation was a success and survived the fight.

With the nature and condition of Adam still unknown, Alex decided to lock up the chemist and his other associates for the time being. The same thing also applied to Adam, especially him. Although he was unconscious, he would still be strictly watched and guarded. Who knew if he suddenly awoke and started a rampage once again..

When the other fighters were done clearing the battlefield from the corpses and debris, the battle report came in. Reading through it carefully, the expression on Alex's face couldn't help but turn grim. There were a dozen fighters dead and almost sixty severely and lightly wounded. Sighing deeply, Alex could only shake his head in sadness. 

The group decided to use the Heavenly Gate's main headquarters as their temporary command center. Meanwhile, Jurgen, the leader of the Israeli entourage, along with the leader of the Saudi Arabia entourage worked together to deal with all the aftermath and unrest after the battle. After all, there was no way those outside troops would directly listen to Alex.

When all the chaos and matter settled down, Alex himself silently chose a room and healed himself with the [Light Wound] spell. He could feel several of his bones were creaking as he walked. It was probably because of the transformed Adam's overwhelming strength, injuring his internal body.

However, Alex could feel the main reason was because the previous battle was the hardest fight he ever went through. That was the first time he ever used all the buff he had in store. The hexagram battle art, three magic scrolls, [Bless] spell, and [Haste] artifact ability. All of this had taken a toll on his body. He also pushed all of them for the whole 10 minutes. Alex felt his spirit core was chaotic and all his muscles were strained. After healed himself, his body suddenly collapsed with fatigue, a side effect he had to deal with whenever he pushed his body to the limit.

D-day #495

Fortunately for Alex, the next morning his body returned to its usual self. The first thing Alex did after waking up was checking on Adam, which was currently still being confined and treated.

Theo, who used to be a doctor before the apocalypse, was collaborating with a dozen medical experts coming from the Iran and Saudi Arabia government. However, none of them had any clue on what could be happening with Adam other than checking his lifesign. Seeing the helpless situation, Alex decided to also bring the chemist and his associates into the room, as there were no more medical experts in the area.

Of course, Alex would not let the chemist and his associates alone with Adam, otherwise who knew what would happen, if they were left with the unconscious Adam. Therefore, Alex could only trust Theo's judgement for this. Not only did he have a medical background, his mind reading skill would also come in handy, in case the chemist wanted to do something funny.

Watching the chemist's expression that turned from astonishment to extreme happiness as he examined Adam's condition, Alex did not know whether to be worried or happy. Several minutes later, the chemist excitedly lifted his head, in his face Alex could see exhilaration, absolute ecstasy.

"Hahaha! A new mutation!!!" the chemist exclaimed, as he turned to his associates, who also turned excited.

Seeing the chemist and the others were in their own world, bulging veins appeared on Alex's forehead as he shouted, "What do you mean with a new mutation?! Explain!!"

Even though he was startled by the sudden shout, the chemist was more than happy to explain what happened to Adam to this new superior of his. Actually, the man sounded so proud when he explained it, as if he had conquered a continent.

This was the summary.

The first experiment he did was combining the bone marrow of a high level zombie with the blood of a man called Axel, a spirit enhancer with high regeneration ability. At that time Adam was miraculously able to survive the process. Although still dependent on constant bone marrow liquid of the high tier zombie, the experiment was deemed success.

And then, months after months of high level zombie's bone marrow injection made Adam's body mutate into the second stage. But, the mutation was too volatile at that time, and the spirit enhancer's blood was not strong enough to sustain it. Adam's body was about to break apart, unable to resist the mutation.

That was when the liquid nicknamed "God Essence" was found. Looking through the list of test subjects before him, the chemist decided to inject this miraculous liquid into Adam. When the essence came into Adam's body, it unexpectedly became the third force that surpassed both the zombie mutation and the spirit enhancer's blood. The imbalance between these three 'objects' created a tension, which resulted in the uncontrollable strength they witnessed. Then, yesterday another miracle happened, as the mutation stabilized.

That was all the chemist knew about this situation. Unfortunately, the chemist said he didn't have the necessary equipment to further study, thus he didn't dare to say anything lest what he said was wrong. For this matter, Alex decided to go to the closest Doomsday Pillar and communicated with the other countries.

As there were only 5 days left until the start of tribulation, it was decided to directly bring Adam to the US, which currently had the best facilities and resources to do these kinds of experiments. President Elizabeth and James were happy to accommodate and help with this issue. Hence, a group was quickly organized to accompany Adam to the US. Daisy and both of her friends Melissa and Rick were included in this group.

They also brought along the chemist to make sure nothing happened to Adam. Even though President Rico wished Adam to return to Indonesia, he agreed on this matter, as he knew this was for the good of his son. He could only hope Adam could quickly recover and return home as soon as possible.

Finally, now that the Heavenly Gate was pretty much annihilated, Alex's promise to Rico had been fulfilled, it was time for him to handle his other matters.

First, there were only 5 days remaining until the tribulation started and hell was brought upon Earth. Alex once again reminded everyone, especially the leaders and representatives of countries, to quickly relocate their citizens to the closest Doomsday Pillar.

Second, Alex took all the information given by the chemist about this liquid he claimed to be "God Essence". He then left with some old scriptures left behind by the Ancient Babylonian, a civilization that could be traced back to more than 5,000 years ago.

The information stated in these scriptures led into certain important ruin, which the Babylonian claimed to be "The Gateway to Immortality". The hidden ruin was opened at the same time when the Doomsday Pillars descended to the world. It was the place where the Heavenly Gate found the so-called "God Essence'.

No matter how interesting it may sound, currently Alex had another promise he needed to fulfill. He had promised Christina to come to Singapore and help her out. Moreover, he heard things had turned for the worse with Christina's situation. Therefore, Alex decided everything else must wait after he finished this matter.

He quickly prepared himself for another journey to Singapore. Alex ordered Theo, Rama and the 30 fighters to go ahead to Singapore using the boat, while Alex himself would use his own transportation. He went back to Dubai to pick up his little princess and her Garuda - Snowy.

But to his surprise, Tiffany and the Garuda were nowhere to be found.

'What happened? Where did she go?'

Alex suddenly had a very bad feeling about this unexpected situation.

Author Note: 

Dear Doomsday Pillars Reader

I apologize for the slow update with the story and thank you for your patience

The truth is that the story of Doomsday Pillars is currently around 70% done and My concern is the chapters towards the ending will become too much a spoiler for my other Novel "Earth Greatest Magus". Therefore I am kinda reluctant to write chapters daily. 

For that reason currently, I can only promise 5-10 chapters per month and will gain daily again as soon as I am ready to finish the novel.  But please do not worry, I will never stop writing this novel until the ending. 

Meanwhile, I hope you would keep supporting me by following my other Novel. Earth Greatest Magus that's happening 2000 years before Doomsday Pillars started or the latest one Blood Elf Monarch that started just right before the Doomsday pillar started

Your sincerely, Avans
