CHAPTER 202: SACRIFICIAL STRATEGY
SACRIFICIAL STRATEGY
Your heart pounds like a war drum as you rise from the ground, the shockwave's aftermath still buzzing in your ears. The survivors you led into the alley are groaning, slowly picking themselves up, unaware of the grim decision you've made. You cast a quick glance back, eyes locking onto the massive silhouette of the Abomination. Its rage is palpable, a monstrous hunger for destruction driving it forward.
In the chaos, you seize the moment. "Go, draw it away!" you bellow at the group, pointing frantically towards the opposite end of the alley. Panic flickers in their eyes, but desperation drives them to nod in reluctant understanding. They scatter, dashing toward the street, raising their voices in a futile attempt to distract the beast.
You watch as the Abomination's attention diverts to the fleeing humans. It bellows, a horrifying sound that sends shivers down your spine, and begins its pursuit, each step a thunderous quake. With the monster occupied, you slip away, guilt gnawing at your conscience but survival instincts overriding all remorse. The path is clear, and you sprint into the shadows, heart heavy yet resolute.
But fate, as always, has a wicked sense of timing. A sudden rumble from above catches your attentionβan abandoned building, weakened by the explosion, begins to collapse. Debris rains down, blocking your escape route. You're trapped, with the Abomination's howls growing louder, the threat of its return looming like a storm cloud.
