Chapter 197: chapter 197- The Danger ll

The silence did not last long, as screams of pain could be heard.

*ARGHHHH!!*

At the place where the statue's sword landed, fresh blood was splattered everywhere.

Marzuki, who had previously run to save the three head researchers, however, he only managed to save Agus. However, it seemed like Agus would not last long because almost half of his body was cut off.

"... SIR! SIR!! STAY WITH ME!!"

*Grab*

Agus, who seemed unable to bear the pain he felt, held Taufik's hand.

"... Y-you Know It's Impossible for me"

Agus said, then moved his other hand, which was holding his notes, to Marzuki.

"Here... Take... This, I have interpreted what is on the stone inscription, take this and bring it back to Mahesa... if you manage to get out of here"

Agus said once again; Marzuki then took the notebook, which was already full of blood splatters.

*Crack!*

Marzuki did not have time to peek at the contents of the notebook, because the statue moved again.

Seeing this, Marzuki began to feel tense, he then looked up and saw that the spear the statue was holding was pointing at him.

"... Shit"

Marzuki then hurriedly moved, leaving Agus' body.

*Thrust!*

*BOOMM!*

The spear landed right where Marzuki was, Agus' body was nowhere to be seen, and there was only blood everywhere.

Silence filled the Great Hall again; however, suddenly, panicked screams began to be heard everywhere, mostly from the researchers.

Panicked screams and calls for help began to be heard, and some researchers even tried to push the stone gate, which was an impossible task.

Not having time to recover from the previous Spear attack, now, Marzuki saw the Statue raise its hand holding the Sword again and immediately point it at Alan who was frozen in place while staring at the blood splattered from the head of the researcher from the United States and Chile, as if he couldn't believe what he had just seen.

Seeing this, Marzuki immediately shouted as loud as he could.

"ALAN!! MOVE!!!"

Hearing Marzuki's scream, Alan looked at Marzuki, then looked at the large sword that was heading towards him, but Alan didn't move at all, as if he had accepted the fate that was about to befall him.

*Swoosh!*

The sword slashed sideways straight at Alan, but even with this Alan still didn't move, which he had to be able to avoid.

*Splurt~*

"..."

With Alan's quick death, Marzuki could only stare silently at the remains of Alan's body lying on the ground.

The soldiers who saw Alan's death immediately pointed their weapons at the statue and then shot at the statue.

With the screams from the researchers coupled with the sound of gunshots, the atmosphere became even more tense, but none of the shots managed to do anything to the statue, not even a scratch.

Seeing this, everyone in the hall only thought about one thing, that all that awaited them was death.

Even Marzuki is no exception.

-------------

What happened next was nothing but carnage; the Statue went crazy; it used the sword and spear it held to charge blindly toward them, and with every slash of its sword and thrust of its spear, several lives were lost.

Blood was everywhere, and body parts were scattered everywhere.

Now only a few of them remain, and the Head of the Special Unique Unit from Chile is also among those few.

But during the attack, Marzuki realized something, that is, during the Statue's attack, he never moved from his position at all; seeing this, Marzuki shouted again.

"EVERYONE!! GET CLOSER TO THE WALL!!!"

Hearing Marzuki's scream, all the soldiers and several remaining researchers immediately ran towards the wall.

And sure enough, after they all reached the walls, the statue's attacks stopped, and it returned to its original gesture.

Seeing this, they all immediately took a breath of relief, which was also accompanied by cries from several people.

"... We shouldn't have done this research in the first place. That century was removed from history for a reason, and look now, we're stuck here waiting for our deaths and with no way out... This research is not even approved by the state... however, Sir Ivan is determined to do this, look at his fate now, he has become a blood clot"

Said one of the researchers who is close to the head researcher from the United States, amidst his tears.

"... This is just a nightmare... This is just a nightmare"

A soldier muttered while holding his head with both of his hands. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It wasn't just the soldier who acted like that, Marzuki who looked left and right, encountered the same sight.

This was completely unlike the Special Unit Soldiers that Marzuki knew; the Special Unit Soldiers that he knew were those who had strong mentalities and always remained calm no matter what the situation was because of the training they had gone through, but not like these. They look more like ordinary people who have received only minimal training.

There are even some people who seem to want to give up.

Actually, Marzuki also felt the same way, however, remembering that there were people waiting for him to come home, he remained firm in his belief that he would survive and would succeed in getting out of this place.

Marzuki looked at the statue and saw the inscription that the statue was holding, this made Marzuki remember the notebook that Agus gave him.

Marzuki then reached into his shirt pocket to take out the notebook, but before he could take it out, Marzuki heard someone's footsteps walking towards him, which made him immediately turn his head towards the source of the sound.

And the person walking towards him was the Chief of the special unit from Chile.

"... Thank you for earlier, being able to find a mechanism like that amid such a chaotic situation is truly an extraordinary thing... I remember we haven't introduced ourselves, my name is Lukas, can I sit next to you?"

Lukas asked, which was then only answered with a nod from Marzuki.

Seeing the cold treatment given by Marzuki, Lukas only smiled faintly and then immediately sat next to Marzuki.

After Lukas sat next to him, Marzuki didn't say anything and just took out the notes that Agus had given him.

"... You know, This research actually shouldn't have happened, Alan and I are actually former Special Forces, we are all just people who have no goals, we came here only because we were promised that if this research produces satisfactory results, we will be given a satisfying reward...

it was just an empty promise without any definite guarantee, but we did it anyway because we had nothing else to do... Are you in the same situation too?"

"No"

Marzuki answered briefly while reading Agus' notes.

"ahaha~ I see, so the head researcher from your country must have high-ranking acquaintances in the military, considering he can move someone like you"

Hearing this, Marzuki stopped reading for a moment and then looked at Lukas to say something, but before they could open their mouths, they both heard gunshots.

*Bang!*

They both then looked towards the sound of the gunshot; there, Marzuki saw the soldier who had been muttering that all of this was just a nightmare lying on the ground with blood flowing out of his head, lifeless.

However, seeing this, none of them overreacted; they all just looked at the person with a normal gaze; perhaps their mentality was so damaged that they thought that this was a normal thing.

Marzuki did not look at the person who took his own life for a long time, then went back to reading Agus' notebook, he also did not say what he wanted to say to Lukas earlier, and Lukas also didn't have a problem with it, then they both sat there silently, with Lukas leaning against the wall of the hall while closing his eyes and Marzuki who was still busy reading the notebook.

When Marzuki arrived at the page where Agus wrote the translation of the inscription, Marzuki then read it seriously.

What is written in the book is "He who reads this inscription is he who wants to know... curiosity is a curse and ignorance is a blessing, this note was left by him who wanted freedom, but he who "restrains" is too arbitrary... I wait for the chosen one, I give my all to the chosen one, including myself... for him who wants to know, when the conditions are met, he will know everything"

"..."

After reading the fragments of words, Marzuki showed confusion about the meaning behind the words.

'... the chosen one? Condition? what conditions?'

Marzuki asked in his mind, but instead of receiving an answer, he received a scream from someone.

"... IT'S MOVE! THAT THING IS MOVING AGAIN"

Hearing this, Marzuki and Lukas immediately looked at the statue, and sure enough, the statue moved again.

*CRASHH!*

The statue dropped the shield it was holding onto the ground, making a thunderous sound.

He then moved one hand that was holding the bow and pointed it toward them, and the other hand that had dropped the shield moved to pull the bowstring that had no arrows.

But what happened next made them even more surprised.
