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
Chapter 179: The Ancient Truth
The eerie silence in the chamber was deafening. Ayla and Zara were pressed against the cold stone, their ragged breathing the only sound in the otherwise still air. The creature was still below them, snarling and clawing at the walls, but it could do nothing now but wait. They were safe, at least for the moment.But neither of them felt safe.Ayla gritted her teeth against the pain in her side, her hand pressed firmly against the wound. The blood was slow to stop, but she couldn’t afford to let it slow her down. There was still too much to do, too many questions to answer. How had the creature found them? Why had it attacked? And most importantly, what the hell was it?Zara, still gripping the ledge above her, glanced at Ayla, her expression tight with anxiety. “Are you okay?”“I’m fine,” Ayla snapped, although she could feel the weakness creeping in. She forced herself to sit up straighter, ignoring the pulse of pain. “We can’t stay here. We need to move.”Zara nodded, but she didn’t
Chapter 178: The Beast Below
The growl echoed in the tunnel like a distant storm rolling in. Ayla’s pulse quickened as her eyes locked onto the creature that loomed in front of them. It wasn’t human, and it wasn’t anything Ayla had ever encountered in her years of combat. This was something primal, something born from the shadows beneath the earth itself.Zara, her hand trembling as she held her gun, whispered, “What is that thing?”Ayla’s mind raced, but there was no time to analyze the situation. The creature was getting closer, its massive form blocking the path forward. Its glowing green eyes pierced through the darkness, as though it could see into their very souls. Its breath was ragged, almost mechanical, as though it were something more than just a beast.Ayla motioned for Zara to stay quiet and slow her breathing. They needed a plan, but there was no time to formulate one. The creature lunged forward, its claws scraping against the stone walls as it reached for them with unnatural speed.Without thinking
Chapter 177: the Abyss
The trapdoor slammed shut, sealing Ayla inside the hidden basement. The sudden silence that followed was suffocating. Her breath came in ragged gasps, her heart pounding in her chest. The echoes of the falling men still lingered in the air, a grim reminder of the price of betrayal. But it wasn’t over, not yet.Ayla’s hand instinctively reached for her gun, but the familiar weight of the weapon was no comfort now. Her mind was racing, trying to piece together the chaos. Marcus was no longer just a traitor, he was a monster, using everyone around him as pawns in a game he had already won. The realization made Ayla sick to her stomach.She didn’t have much time. The men she had just trapped would not stay down for long. They were too well-trained, too determined. Ayla could hear their muffled shouts as they recovered below, calling for backup, their voices tinged with anger.Her only option now was to escape. The safe house was compromised, there was no way she could stay there. But Zara
Chapter 176: The Price of Betrayal
The air outside the warehouse was cold and unforgiving, a biting chill sweeping across the streets as Ayla and Zara stumbled into the darkness, bloodied but alive.The explosion had torn apart the narrow hallway they’d fled through, sending debris scattering in all directions. They had barely made it out of the inferno unscathed. But the worst part was the realization that their enemies were not just rogue players, they were organized, dangerous, and they knew exactly who Ayla and Zara were.“We need to get to the safe house,” Ayla said, her voice low and strained. She glanced around, her eyes darting back and forth as she kept watch for any movement. She knew they weren’t safe yet. The whole situation felt like a trap, and they were the bait.Zara nodded, her face pale and streaked with grime. She wasn’t as quick to trust their plan as Ayla was, but the urgency in her eyes matched her leader’s. They had no choice.They moved quickly through the back alleys, the sound of their footste
