บท 230: The Abomination Faction

Just as she was relaying the situation to her faction leader back in Alabama, Melanie felt her whole world darken as the air was knocked out of her lungs and she was sent catapaulting off her feet.

Her back struck a ruined wall over thirty feet away with enough force to crack it, and she felt so many things go wrong in her body at once that she couldn't even maintain the presence of mind to cry out.

"Christ… I thought you were a blessed with that weird energy thing you did earlier but when I hit you it was like punching tissue paper. Are you actually human?"

Thudding footsteps drew closer to Melanie's crumpled body but she could not make her body look up at the source of the voice.

Hell, her vision was blurry and unfocused anyway.

Casually walking through a ruined highway street was a large creature that was clearly not of this world.

Standing at roughly ten feet tall, he was a beast huge in not just stature, but musculature as well.
