Chapter 178

Two of Lydia's soldiers lunged at Alex in a synchronized move, each trying to knock him off balance with a "forceful kick aimed at his knee.

The blows landed, but Alex didn't budge an inch.

It felt, to them, like their legs had just collided with a slab of solid iron.

One soldier let out a strangled cry as he crumpled to the ground, clutching his shattered shin.

The other toppled over next to him, howling in agony.

"Y-you monster!" another soldier snarled, leveling his weapon at Alex's head. Several more followed suit, forming a ring of gun barrels pointed straight at him. Suddenly, one of the men who'd been aiming at Alex turned his rifle away from its target.

Without warning, he pulled the trigger-twice-blowing the heads off two of his own comrades in a grisly, explosive spray.

"What the hell just happened?" someone shouted, horror-stricken.

"I-I don't know!" cried the shooter, eyes wide with panic. "My hand... it moved on its own!"

"Drop that damn gun!" barked another soldier, voice trembling.

The moment the shooter tossed his rifle aside, he yanked a hunting knife from his belt and lunged at the nearest comrade, stabbing viciously.

"Stop!" the comrades yelled.

One soldier fired his pistol in desperation, the bullet ripping through the assailant's chest.

The attacker collapsed, but in a grotesque twist, his body kept moving-like a mindless puppet-driving the blade deeper into the soldier he'd tackled.

"Shoot him again!" someone else screamed, voice shrill with terror. "He's not going down!"

Several rifles went off at once. Bullets tore into the attackers torso until he finally slumped over, lifeless.

While the soldiers reeled from this nightmarish scene, Alex stood with a faint, chilling smile curving at the corner

of his mouth.
