Liberators

Chapter 60 - Confrontation

Wall Development Sector

Northern Sections.

On top of that tall crane, Axel was still sitting in a state of full alert. He no longer wanted to be negligent because of the peace he felt.

Ever since arriving at this fortress, Axel had slightly forgotten how hard life was in this world.

Everything feels so easy.

Even hunting monsters was not an obstacle to him.

Is it because He is blessed by this power?

It was probably because of this strength, which made him become a little too relaxed.

And almost because of his attitude, Axel made all civilian workers and regular soldiers in his territory killed by the Chimera.

Still keeping a close eye on the whole surrounding situation, Axel constantly questioned the same thing on himself.

"Chimera huh? Actually was.... What's that thing?"

Axel felt that Chimera was completely different from the other monsters he had encountered all along.

And the biggest difference was his intelligence which was much higher than ordinary monsters.

Even the Chimera, previously fought by Axel, was intelligent enough to understand the physical concept of the load and durability of a building structure.

Including being able to make plans against Axel and Eva in a place that should be very detrimental to him.

"Damn it, the more thought makes me dizzy." Axel said to himself.

Now, he turned his gaze toward the wall that was almost finished. Maybe in a few weeks, the wall that covers most of Los Angeles will be finished.

The entire walls of the various sectors appear to have been connected to each other.

It just takes some final work.

At that moment, Oracle suddenly called Axel through the communication network in the earphone.

"Axel, can you hear me?" Ask the Oracle briefly.

"Yes? What's up?"

"We detected another Chimera unit moving towards you. Can you hold it in for a minute before I send you some help?" Ask Oracle.

"How strong?" Axel asked back who had now risen from his seat.

Axel who was standing right at the top of the crane looked so horrible. Because of a few steps, he could fall tens of meters to the ground.

Even so, Axel remained calm. He understood how far he could go and knew that falling from this height would not kill him.

After being silent for a while, along with the light commotion behind the call, the Oracle spoke again.

"Not as strong as before. May only be at C+ or B level. Hm.... It's a little weird. But this Flux wave really resembles the previous Chimera." Obviously the Oracle that He himself was also a little astonished.

"Only B level? I think Eva and I have had enough. Don't panic the other sectors just for this matter." Reply Axel.

"You sure?" Ask Oracle.

"of course. If the situation worsens, just like before I'll run away."

After thinking about it for a moment, the Oracle finally agreed with what Axel said.

After all, Oracle had been well aware of Axel's abilities. He was sure Axel could not lose against a B-level monster. This time, Eva was with him.

"alright. Then I'll mention the direction. Northeast, about 14 kilometers from where you are. His movements were quite slow when compared to the previous Chimera. But be careful." Obviously Oracle at length.

After determining the direction and destination, Axel immediately jumped down from the Crane and landed on the ground as if it was not a big problem for him.

Upon his arrival below, he immediately invited Eva to come with him.

"Chimera again?"

"That's how. Come on."

Both of them started running. Leave the construction of the sector to the regular soldiers and ask them to contact him in case anything happens.

To confirm it, Axel asked the Oracle once again.

"In the vicinity of this sector, there are no more powerful monsters, right?"

"Only a few Goblins and Orcs walked around. Their number can be counted with the finger." Reply Oracle.

That answer was already convincing enough for Axel to leave the construction sector of this wall into the hands of the regular soldiers.

If it was just the Goblins and Orcs or Lizardmen, they would be able to handle it quite easily.

And so, the two began to run towards the Northeast.

......***......

A few moments later....

"Cong, Oracle. You sure you're here? I didn't see anything." Axel said in confusion.

Currently, Axel and Eva had stood at the highest place in this area. It is a mall with 5 floors.

Not too high, but enough to help them look in different directions.

Even so, the two of them did not find anything at all. There was not the slightest monster figure in this area.

Especially the Chimera with such a large size.

"You sure? Have you looked in any direction?" Ask the Oracle in that communication channel.

"What if you come here and make sure of it yourself? I've looked around many times and there's not a single Chimera, not even a Goblin." Reply Axel.

The Oracle was silent in confusion.

Similarly, some of his team members who are included in the Flux wave observation division through satellite imagery.

Even if there is an error or location calculation error, it may only be limited to 20 to 50 meters.

But these?

"That's weird. The Flux wave is very clear that the Chimera is near you. Maybe you missed it?" Ask the Oracle again.

While listening to the Oracle's now meaningless chatter, Axel saw something in the distance.

Not monsters.

But the figure of a little girl who ran with breath gasping.

"Wait a minute, I'll turn this call off." Axel said as he immediately pressed the button on the earphone on his left ear.

"Axel! Don't mat...."

Without waiting for a word from the Oracle, Axel had turned off his call.

Beside her, Eva also realized the same thing as what Axel saw.

"Axel, that girl...." Eva said with a panicked face.

"Master. Maybe by the Chimera? I don't know, but the wound on the girl's body explains everything."

Immediately, Axel and Eva started running towards the girl. Without knowing what is chasing him.

In the minds of the two of them, the girl was probably one of the survivors who managed to survive to this day. But it's pretty unlucky to have met a Chimera that the Oracle might have intended.

In an instant, Axel had been right in front of the girl.

He immediately knelt down and hugged the girl with his left hand.

"Relax, I'll protect you." Axel said as he looked towards the distance. Where the girl came from.

In his view, he saw the figure of 5 men carrying different weapons were chasing this girl.

'That's right. Humans hunt humans? Moreover, this little girl?'

Instantly, Axel's two eyes gave a gaze filled with hatred. Looking towards the five people.

"Sister.... Help me...." Say the girl while crying.

Axel realized that the girl's left arm had been severed. Meanwhile, his body had several gunshot scars that were still not fully covered.

"Just calm. Come with the older sister behind me, she will definitely protect you."

Slowly, Axel began to stand up. He hints that Eva will protect and take care of the little girl.

"Come, come with brother." Said Eva who immediately hugged and held the little girl away from this fight.

After he found out that the ones chasing this girl were a group of humans, Eva was even more worried. Because the existence of the Chimera mentioned by the Oracle has not been seen. It should be around this place.

Meanwhile, Axel's entire gaze was now focused on the figure of the five people standing before him.

"The uniform.... Military soldier? Is there still a military in the world?" Say one of those men.

"If so, why? Besides, it doesn't matter anymore." Reply Axel while walking slowly towards the five of them.

He started to pull the spear on his back. Prepare to enter the fight.

No matter what the reason, hunting another human, moreover a little girl, was the most cruel deed for Axel in this world.

Even if....

In a world that has been destroyed like this.
