Chapter 185: The Final Stand
Ayla’s heart pounded in her chest as she surged forward, the dagger in her hand gleaming in the low light. Every instinct screamed at her to fight, to survive, but deep down, she knew the odds were stacked against her. The man with the rifle was too skilled, too calm. She could see the slight smirk on his face, as if he were enjoying the spectacle.Her pulse quickened, the pain in her shoulder flaring with every movement, but she pushed it aside. The stranger was down—possibly dead—and now, she was alone.“Come on, then,” the man taunted, his voice cold and unwavering. “Let’s see if you have what it takes.”Ayla gritted her teeth, the fire in her veins burning hotter as she closed the gap between them. Her feet hit the stone floor with a determination she hadn’t felt in a long time. She wasn’t going to die today, not like this.With a swift movement, she lunged at him, aiming for his throat. But the man was faster. In a blur of motion, he sidestepped her attack, the rifle snapping up
Chapter 184: The Secrets Unraveled
Ayla walked in silence, the weight of the stranger’s injuries and the gravity of their situation pressing down on her. Her body was still trembling from the battle, but the adrenaline was slowly fading, leaving her exhausted. The sharp sting of her own wounds was a reminder that she wasn’t untouched by the chaos.The stranger, leaning heavily on her for support, wasn’t much better. His breaths were shallow, his face pale as blood continued to seep from his side. Despite this, there was a determined glint in his eyes, one that spoke volumes about his resolve. He wasn’t going to die here, not today.“I’ve got you,” Ayla said, her voice firmer than she felt. She glanced over at him, trying to maintain composure. “We’ll get you out of here, and then we’ll figure out what to do next.”He didn’t respond at first, his gaze distant as if contemplating something far beyond the physical pain. Finally, his voice broke the silence. “It’s not the wounds that worry me.”Ayla’s brow furrowed as she
Chapter 183: The Last Stand
Ayla’s heart hammered in her chest as the creature lunged toward them with unimaginable speed. She had no time to think, only react. The world around her moved in slow motion as she watched the monstrous figure barreling toward them, its jagged claws ready to tear through them both.The stranger, blood still oozing from his wound, stepped in front of Ayla, holding his ground with the last of his strength. His breathing was shallow, but his grip on his daggers was steady, his body poised for the fight of his life.“No,” Ayla cried out, grabbing his arm. “You’re hurt! You can’t”But the stranger’s face was set in grim determination. “You’ll need to fight, too. I’m not your savior. You are.”Before she could protest further, the creature was upon them. Its speed and strength were unmatched, and the shockwave of its movement knocked Ayla off her feet. She crashed to the floor, her vision spinning for a moment. But before she could collect herself, the stranger was already in the fray.His
Chapter 182: The Cost of Survival
Ayla’s heart pounded in her chest, her breath ragged as the smoke from the explosions swirled around them. The creature's monstrous form was staggering, but not yet defeated. Its howls reverberated through the air, a chilling reminder of the nightmare they were trapped in. Zara's lifeless body was a stark image in her mind, a face she’d never see again.The shadowed figure, the one who had saved her life, was now at her side. His presence was like an anchor in the chaos, but the question on her lips remained unanswered. Who was he? And why was he here?“Get up!” The stranger’s voice cut through her grief-stricken haze. He grabbed her arm, hauling her to her feet with surprising strength. “We can’t waste time. We have to finish this before it’s too late.”Ayla’s mind was spinning, the weight of Zara’s death still suffocating her. But there was no room for weakness now. No time for mourning. They were in the middle of a battle for survival, and if she didn’t fight, she would end up like
Chapter 181: Death Day
The world around Ayla dissolved into darkness, and for a moment, she thought she had lost consciousness. The sound of the creature’s growls, its blood-curdling roars, filled her ears. The air was thick with the scent of decay, of ancient darkness that clung to the very walls of the temple. Her body was frozen, too stunned by the force of the creature's presence to move.Zara’s frantic breathing was the only thing that reminded Ayla she wasn’t alone. She forced her eyes open, squinting into the suffocating shadows. She could barely make out the creature, its hulking form emerging from the green mist that poured from the cracks in the floor. Its eyes were like burning coals, glinting with a feral hunger."We need to run!" Ayla shouted over the noise, though she knew it was futile. The creature was too fast, too powerful. They wouldn’t escape this.Zara nodded, her eyes wide with terror. "Where? There’s no way out!"Ayla scanned the chamber. The walls were closing in, the floor trembling
Chapter 180: The Keeper's Trap
The words hung in the air like a heavy fog, thick with menace. "The keeper of what's below." Ayla's pulse quickened, and her grip tightened on her gun. She wanted to draw it, but there was something in the man’s calm demeanor that told her this wasn’t a fight she could win with violence alone.Zara stood frozen next to her, her breath shallow, eyes wide with disbelief. The man before them wasn’t just some stranger; he was a part of this temple, part of whatever force had been stirring beneath their feet. And they had just unwittingly walked right into his domain."You’ve been searching for answers," the man continued, his voice carrying a sinister smoothness, as though each word was calculated for maximum impact. "But the truth, my dear, is far darker than you ever imagined."Ayla narrowed her eyes, stepping forward. "Who are you? And what the hell is this place?" She could feel her heart pounding in her chest, her body on high alert. The tension in the air was suffocating, each breat
