Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 22: 22. The supermarket (4): Queen bee level 15

"Yo, it's this way!" Laurence shouted before making a turn and Dexter stopped.

'Damn. You hear screaming and gun shots, you run towards it. These people are nuts.' He shook his head. 'In Serene, there were many gangs and a lot of people died due to gun fights. Even if I have the power, to start running towards the danger is not one of my reflexes.'

Dexter couldn't get himself to go towards where the danger was and his heart began pounding. More, louder shots and smaller explosions boomed around the place but he couldn't go there.

'Should I ditch them? I wouldn't want to be ditched, and I chose to come so I might as well follow through with it. Now to move is the proble–'

"Dexter! Come on! You heard the shouts!" Rina and Zain zoomed past him, grabbing his arm and he used that as a jump start and began running behind them.

*CREAAAA...!!!*

In front of them, rows of two metre tall shelves were destroyed while being pushed back by an invisible sound force which caused the bulbs in that area to burst open.

Dexter and the others stopped to look at the pile of broken shelves and saw a person laying there lifelessly.

*RAAARR!!*

"Cole!" Laurence shouted as he saw one of his teammates blasted away by a roar from the creature in front of them.

"Oh my..." Dexter saw a large bee the size of a truck with hundreds of black ropes connected to its back where it's stinger was supposed to be.

Four eyes sat above it's head, moving individually which was extremely creepy as it focused on multiple targets. It had a mouth with sharp, black teeth sticking out of it.

Laurence gritted his teeth as he jumped and began running in circles around the monster while shooting it with his desert eagles.

It was beginning to be infuriated by the human's bullets and turned to Laurence with an angry gaze. But before it could scream, a gun fire resounded, along with the sound of blood spurting.

The bee shrieked in pain as blood spurted from the side of its body but the blood gradually stopped and it looked at Beatrice who still had her gun pointed towards it.

It suddenly shot its tentacles towards a direction where there were scattered pieces of food and broken shelves.

Dexter, Zain, and Rina were all stunned and they all stared at the dead comrade of theirs that laid on the pile of broken materials and food.

Hearing a loud whooshing sound heading towards them Dexter immediately grabbed Rina and Zain by their clothes and pulled them backwards.

More than ten tentacles passed by them and it didn't stop there.

"What the...? It wants his body!" Zain figured it out and held his axe to cut down the tentacles and the bee noticed this.

As Zain raised his axe upwards, ready to strike down with utmost force, one of the tentacles broke from the formation and whipped him hard on his stomach, causing him to be thrown backwards and he crashed into a shelf, making it lose balance and fall down towards him.

'No.' Dexter stood up rapidly and headed towards the shelf and stopped it from falling on top Zain.

The tentacles grabbed the body of Cole and the creature dragged it with speed towards its mouth but Lairence could stay and do nothing.

He began to shoot at the eyes while dodging the multiple tentacles attacking him. He failed to dodge one and he was whipped and sent flying towards another direction. He crashed into a wall and he coughed up blood as he landed on the floor.

His eyes were open wide as he saw the bee's razor sharp teeth chew on his comrade, a person he trained with in the military, his team member, his brother in arms, his family, he couldn't... he couldn't bear this.

"Johnny!" He called out as he looked towards the black skinned guy with a machine rifle and Laurence nodded with furrowed brows.

Johnny, understanding what he was supposed to do began running away from the bee to get some space.

The bee immediately sent multiple tentacles to Beatrice, distracting her and making her unable to focus on casting her wind skill on her bullets as she dodged while using a single dagger in her left hand to parry the whipping attacks.

The bee then noticed someone running away and one of its eyes followed and saw Johnny. It had a lot of spate tentacles and shot one at Johnny to grab him.

"Cover Johnny!" Laurence shouted but most of them were busy already.

Rina sprained her ankle when Dexter dragged them back and Dexter was helping Zain hold the shelf which was heavily filled with goods so he couldn't help too.

Before the black tentacle of the bee could reach Johnny, a bright white light suddenly came from beside it and hit it, pushing it towards a shelf, freezing it, a large chunk of ice held it with the shelf and the monster bee shrieked loudly as it sent more tentacles towards Johnny who suddenly stopped but a person suddenly leapt from the side, slicing the tentacles.

His shoulder length black hair waved in the air as he performed mind blowing acrobatics while still in action with his silver sword. His blue eyes radiated calmness and coldness, just like the silver blade of his sword.

The bee let out a crackling sound as it sent out more tentacles, the ones on the walls and even the shelves began to move and it sent towards all its attackers ftom all sides.

Chapman bit his lips as he bearded the pain of losing a brother and a purple light wrapped his body as he brought out two short blades from his back which were curved at the top. The blades too wrapped in this purple light and he immediately zoomed towards the tentacles as he was five times faster and stronger.

Leo couldn't hold off so many tentacles coming at him at once and one of them dragged his feet and whipped him on a shelf.

Johnny finally reached a far enough distance and he closed his eyes as he concentrated on using his skill.
