Doomsday Pillars

Bangkalan City is located on the northwestern side of Madura Island. The city center is only 500 meters away from the beach shores. Its white sandy beaches span one kilometer across from the city\'s south section to the north section.

Currently, thousands of soldiers were fighting the mutated crabs, as most of the soldier have been holed up on this island, they have received limited spirit stones. Therefore only a few of them have consumed them and became medium stage Mortal Realm fighters. Even fighting a low level mutated beast was difficult for them.

Colonel Dion\'s soldiers, along with the ex-governer Cahya and Alex\'s group arrived from the south side. With Alex\'s knowledge of the crabs\' weaknesses, the south section was gradually able to put up some resistance. At the same time, the north section suffered a lot of casualties. The arrival of the White King Crab mutated beast made the situation worse. The soldiers of the north section lost their morale, some could be seen fleeing the battlefield.

During such chaos, hundreds of men arrived from the northern section of the city, they were wearing simple dark clothes with an orange bandana on their head.. They were the Madurese fighters. Most of the Madurese citizen stay in the northern section of the city, the conditions forced them to join the fights. Hundreds of strong Madurese men, using mostly pikes and nets charged into the group of mutated crabs. These Madurese fighters, unlike the soldiers, had been running around the Madura Island these past three weeks saving their kinsman, they have more fighting experience. Most of them also already became medium stage Mortal Realm fighters, even some were at a high level. Their appearance boosted the will of the soldiers.

"Shitttt... how can we fight this big monster?"

A few of the Madurese fighters were trying to find a way to kill the White King Crab... These huge pincers and eight sharp legs... They all were lethal to any man.

"There\'s no way these nets and pikes can penetrate that hard body."

"Should we focus on the weak spot in the middle of the eyes like the one showed by the soldiers?"

"Do you have any idea how to get close to that thing?"

"..."

None of the fighters dared, even after eating the spirit stones, they have seen how fast that white abomination moved, they were not sure they can dodge the crab huge pincers.

"No idea at all?"

"... I just realized where is Ruslan?"

"Did he run away?"

"Not possible... He\'s the strongest among us."

While the group was still discussing a way to kill the white crab, a truck drove into the sandy beach and rushed straight at the White King Crab at full speed.

"BAAAMMMMM!!!"

The truck crashed at the huge crab directly from the front... It was a direct hit, but it only pushed the mutated beast backward a few meters. A figure kicked the truck\'s front window and quickly jumped out of the car holding a steel harpoon. While the mutated crab was still disoriented by the crash, the man quickly thrust the steel spear directly into the monster\'s weak spot... right between the eyes.

"CLAAANKKK!!"

"..."

Unfortunately, it\'s the sound of the steel harpoon breaking from the impact. It seemed either the weak point was different or the man\'s hit was not strong enough... The huge crab suddenly turned into its berserk state. The man suddenly regrets his recklessness... He quickly jumped out of the truck before the crab\'s pincers cut the truck in half.

"That\'s Ruslan!!"

"What a brave moron!!"

"Ruslan!! Runnn!!"

The White King Crab didn\'t want to leave the man who hurt it just like that, it decided to chase him... The Madurese fighters, although having no solution, decided to jump in and help the poor man... But the group suddenly stopped halfway... The scene in front of them made them freeze.

From inside the waves, at least a dozen more White Mutated Crabs emerge... These made all the thousands of soldiers panic. Ruslan was startled by it and suddenly stumbled on the sand. He turned around and saw a huge pincer swing right at him...

"I guess this is my end.", he thought...

BAAAMMMMM!!!!

"..."

A rock like monster crashed into the white crab in front of him... The crash seemed stronger than the truck... The mutated crab staggered backward and its whole body dropped flat on the sand.

Shockingly, there was a man on top of the rock monster. The man looked at Ruslan with a smile.

"Haloo. Luckily I arrived in time."

The man jumped in front of the crab and he seemed to wield a weird spear in his hand... A steel spear with a sharp ivory horn on its end.

"Watch out for the pincer attack!!" Ruslan warned the man.

The crab was able to quickly stand up and swung its most dangerous weapon, its pincers...

SWWISSHH!!!

Hop!!.. The man could easily jump and dodged the attack, the move looked so simple, but Ruslan realized how hard it was to perform such fast but efficient moves.

The man followed his move with a simple thrust to the spot between the crab\'s eyes using the weird spear.

PAAA!! The spear was surprisingly able to stab deep into the huge mutated beast.

PAAA!! PAAA!! The man stabbed two more times into the surrounding area... All direct hits and entered deep inside the crab head. The attacks were followed by a loud shrieking sound of the crab. And the crab fell down unmoving... dead.

The man was surely Alex, when he saw the emerging white crabs, he quickly summoned the golem to help him rush hundreds of meter in seconds. He recognized the white crab as a peak stage one mutated beast... The main trouble was its hard exoskeleton skin, probably only an explosive cannon could pierce it. Fortunately, Alex had a surprise prepared in his storage ring. It\'s the stage two snake fang that was modified into a spear. With his peak stage mortal realm strength and a stage two beast item, he could pierce the White King Crab\'s weak spot. The whole scene seemed so easy that it created an impression among all the soldiers in the vicinity. Especially to Ruslan and all the Madura fighters.

"You are not giving up now right?"

Alex gave Ruslan a hand and helped him up from the sand.

"Let\'s go."

The man fiercely rushed into the dozen white crabs. Ruslan tried to follow, but he just couldn\'t keep up with his speed, he could only see from the back when the man easily dodged and stabbed the huge abominations. His rock monster was also able to hold the pincer attacks and even pulled the pincers apart with its bare hands... Juicy white crab meat could be seen splashing in the air... The before horrific scene turned into a sort of a feast by the duet man and rock monster.

On the south section, Aria, Cindy, Theo and the 5 men wearing snakeskin uniforms also created a deep impression on the army. All these people were peak stage mortal realm fighters, the small red crabs weren\'t able to hurt them at all. Soon after the crab started to flee altogether, There were still five of the white crabs fleeing, Alex, unwilling to let them go, took out his hand radio...

"Fire at the white crabs."

Suddenly a ship quickly approaching from a hundred meters south of the coast. The boa class patrol ship took a few shot from the 20mm light cannon.

KABOOM!! KABOOM!! KABOOM!!

SPLASH!! SPLASH!! SPLAATT!!

After a few shots, three of the white crabs\' dead bodies got pushed back to the shore by the waves. Finally, the coast battle is over, although there were dozens of casualty, the soldiers and all the other men felt fortunate, especially with the involvement of these strangers led by a guy named Alex. Just a few hours after his arrival in Madura, Alex already became their hero.
