Ancient God in the Modern World - Chapter 85

Meanwhile, the members of the Divine Judo are with General Sean and General Bren. They had grouped together.

On their way, when they had departed from Allen, they found the two in their pitiful state.

On consideration that they were of the same race, they had decided to help them both.

At this time, they had somewhat discarded the division between powers.

The said united humanity is not united at all. They may be working to eliminate the human, but they have reservations against the others.

They do not want to exhaust their strength just in case the other factions tried to eliminate them.

It could be said that the demons are not the real enemy. The real enemy is the other factions of the same race as them.

The ones that are trying to monopolize the faction are the military, or the government itself. Then the other faction. However, they rather fear the prowess of the military.

“Thank you.”

Suddenly, General Bren expressed his gratitude.

This might not be the right time but he did not care. He believes that gratitude could be expressed at any time.

Meanwhile, they continued to head towards the exit that they knew. And a few more days, they arrived back at the residential area.

They saw the familiar dilapidated buildings in the vicinity. However, the puppets are no longer there.

It seemed that this place is not the real battleground.

They were simply passing by.

However, the puppets were replaced by gloomy-looking humanoid creatures.

If Allen is here, he would surely say to his Moder, “Hey, dude, your cousins.”

The creatures looked like rotten walking corpses. However, they are walking fair and square, unlike the real corpses.

Indeed, these creatures are none other than zombies. However, the word zombies are not their correct name in the Norse pantheon.

They are called Draugar. However, there is not much difference between the zombies that we know.

A/N: Behold, the zombies had finally appeared!

As old man, Darwin, and the others saw them, they felt chills on their back.

“We’re not lost, are we?” Glenna could not help but ask.

“No, this should be the right place?” old man Darwin affirmed.

“What do you mean ‘should’?” Madman Leonard asked. He felt another chill on his back as old man Darwin said the word ‘should’.

Now, he is somewhat doubting if they really are in the right place.

However, General Sean looked at General Bren and said, “I think this is the place.”

Meanwhile, as they were dazed, the zombies began coursing their way towards them.

Beyond their expectation, these zombies are not slow or stiff.

They could run fast while holding their weapons.

Judging by the way how they move, the zombies are no different from humans.

Meanwhile, Madman Leonard took his time and did not hesitate to punch the leading zombie with his hammer.

Thud!

However, in the next moment, his face paled. His attack did not do anything to the zombie.

It was like he was hitting a sold substance.

“Fuck! Are these zombies?” he cursed.

Based on their rotting bodies, they should be easy to deal with. However, unbeknownst to them. their bodies are strengthened by the accumulated hatred over the years.

One must note that this hatred could only be released if the divine energy is thin.

Otherwise, they will be bombarded by the dense divine energy.

“Fuck, they have the strength of a general!” Glenna explained.

Then as she looked at the others zombies, she was horrified again to discover that they were at least of the same strength as the one that Madman Leonard struck.

“Run!”

Meanwhile, Madman Leonard immediately fled when he discovered the strength of the creature.

Although he was called a madman, he is not stupid. He knew that if he would be tangled in a fight, he would be akin to a dead man.

The number of the zombies chasing over them and the gang is beyond the number that they could count at one glance.

There are at least a hundred of them while there are barely a dozen of them.

“If only Allen is here,” the old man lamented with a whisper.

However, most of them heard it. They too felt pity. If Allen is here, he would have discovered this and they would not be in this predicament.

“Where is he?” Madman Leonard asked. He saw Allen head to the center however, he is not sure where did Allen head exactly.

“Perhaps he is dead?” one from the Divine Judo commented.

“That is unlikely to happen,” old man Darwin defended him but he did not explain how so.

There is something in him that is telling him that Allen is still alive.

Well, indeed, Allen is alive. Furthermore, he is not the one who is being chased. It’s the other way around, instead.

Meanwhile, as they were running in the opposite direction of the exit, they were stunned as they saw a black horizontal line in from of them.

However, as they look intently, they paled as they realized that the ‘line’ are zombies, instead.

“Shit, what do we do now?” Glenna asked as he looked at old man Darwin.

Old man Darwin is the oldest among their group. Thus, they subconsciously treat him as their leader. Aside from the seniority, he also had the appropriate strength.

Although he might not overwhelm them, he is stronger than the others by a few degrees.

Meanwhile, for the second time, both General Sean and General Bren nodded at each other.

“Apollo, the patron of humanity, I, the appointed general of the military, asks for your help,” both General Sean and General Bren said simultaneously.

As they did so, the members of the Divine Judo are astounded. A power unknown to them fluctuated from both of their bodies.

After that, they felt the sun in the shrine shine more intensely than before.

However, although it was more intense, it seemed to be gentler.

It was akin to the warm kiss of a mother and a gentle hug of a father.

Then, from the sun, a voice, resonated.

“I could not do much in this realm, neither my uncle. However, you can try calling unto the god in the Base 300.”

Indeed, it was as Apollo said.

Asgard is after all a shrine.

However, Apollo did not leave without helping them.

As the sun’s light returned to normal, they all felt rejuvenated.
