Doomsday Pillars - Chapter 367

Christina was just a normal young mother who wished to have a peaceful life, taking care of her two kids, building and giving beautiful experiences for her two precious.

Alas, that could not happen anymore when the apocalypse descended onto Earth.

The disasters struck repeatedly and Christina, who was right in the middle of all the chaos, lost her sweet daughter. She was devastated thinking about having to live in a future where she could no longer see her daughter’s beautiful smile, her vibrant laugh, her lovely mischievousness. She did not dare imagine it.

Alas, that was exactly the reality she had to face the moment she found out her daughter was no more.

Fortunately, despite the tremendous loss she received during the apocalypse, Christina managed to persevere and diverted her sadness towards another good: doing what was right for her people.

The firebird was the crystallization of her hard work. The group was formed shortly after the disaster struck, with her as the strongest and bravest member.

It was not long before people began to follow her, coming under her wings, putting their hopes on her. From Singapore to Hong Kong, then China, before returning back to Singapore. A lot of people placed their expectations and lives on Christina, hoping she would be able to lead them during this troubled time.

During the journey, Christina continued to lose more and more friends, people she could call as family. With each life that was lost, it burdened her heavily. Starting from her daughter Cally, the boy Ma Sing, her best friend and mentor Jennie, as well as the old caretaker who raised her since she was small.

In the end, Christina felt all those emotions and frustration burning her from the inside, and she began to lose herself. At the moment, she laid helplessly on a bed, trying to fight this force that had been boiling inside of her.

Christina could sense all the screams and shouts when the fight began; they were calling to her. she gritted her teeth, forcing her wrecked body to get up. She wanted to help those people, she had to, it was her mission.

But Unfortunately, her determination was not enough, she was lying there, unable to do anything. Sadness and desperation consumed her. The thought of more people dying brought her to despair. The face of her uncle came to her mind and brought rage to her heart. But in the end, the rage turned back to her… she blamed herself for being unable to do more.

Rage…

Suddenly Christina felt the burning energy inside of her had begun coursing through her body, building up until, suddenly, an explosion of power took control of her body.

A series of notifications crashed onto her mind, followed by a fierce flood of energy that flowed all around her body, rejuvenating her exhaustion and healing all wounds she sustained.

With her newfound power, Christina quickly stood up and rushed to the frontline headed towards west, the direction where the main battle was.

As soon as she arrived at the battlefield, Christina saw another spectacle that gave her more pain.

Maxine, her firebird sister, getting snapped in two by the flying monstrosity. Her body was thrown to the ground and caught by Corrie before it could hit the ground.

When she arrived, she clearly saw Corrie was tearing her eyes up.

“S-Sister Christina…. P-Pleas.. H-Help..”

When she heard Corrie’s plea, Christina subconsciously activated what appeared to be her innate skill. In an instant, bones blurted out of her back and spread out into flaming wings made of bones.

[Wings of Pain]

[Increases Battle Power]

[Increases Fire Element Power]

In this state, Christina could vividly perceive and sense her power building up with every second passing. Turning her gaze to Corrie,”You need to take Maxine to the pillar! Hurry, Corrie!”

Unexpectedly, Corrie seemed hesitant, “But sister… The fight?!”

Christina looked directly at Corrie’s eyes, her eyes were lit up by fire as she shouted, “Go! Now!! Before it’s too late!!”

Corrie immediately picked Maxine’s body and scrambled to the backline. On the other hand, Christina took out two Tier 2 swords from her storage ring. She was prepared to fight. As soon as she wished, by just directing her thought towards a direction, the blazing wings on her back immediately took her into the air, taking her body to the destination.

At the moment, Christina was hovering in the air, watching the Chimera and sea of Abyss creatures below her. Surprisingly, her first target was not the massive Chimera, it was the Gargoyles, who gave the most headache to the fighters.

[Fire Blade]

As the spell took effect, the two swords in Christina’s hands got engulfed by scorching flames. She rushed into the field and began to wreak havoc.

With her swords, Christina zoomed around and cut all the gargoyles that were in her path at breakneck speed. The area that was passed by her was left with burning marks on the ground and a burnt smell in the air.

*swish*

Splat! Splat!

*swish*

Christina flew around so fast that only her shadow could be seen. A path of destruction was left behind as she continued to slaughter every gargoyle she laid her eyes on.

With the increase in her realm and the boost in the fire element, her swords, which were enchanted by spells, were able to cut the thick, durable bodies of the gargoyle like butter. The fighters who were saved by Christina’s actions could only see a shadow pass by them and the next moment, the gargoyles before them were already cut into two and burned into charcoal.

All the fighters without exception saw how a familiar flaming figure was flying and whizzing around, turning the area around the defensive line into a gargoyle massacre.

“Is that…?!”

“That’s Christina!!”

“Christina, the Firebird!!”

“She’s here! We are saved!!”

“Everyone, rise up! Get those creatures out of our city!!”

“Let’s go! Christina is here! We can win!!”

“Christina, Christina!!”

…

Numerous cheers and shouts resounded in the air, all directed towards Christina.

Unfortunately, Christina did not have the time to react to them, as she was busy pushing her new skill to its utmost limit. She continued her slaughter until she finally saw it, the Chimera, right in front of her eyeing her with clear hostility.

“Grrooowwwlll!!”

This was the third Chimera she fought, there was nothing more that would surprise her. Well, except the wings, but she had those too, now.

With confidence filling her to the brim, Christina brandished her two blazing swords and rushed to attack the abomination.
