This time, Alex believes that he has the advantage, he studies the area better, it is going to be a short distance battle. Most importantly, he does not need to worry about protecting the other three. The entry to the secret chamber is not that easy to find, also Aria is with the other two so he doesn't need to worry too much about them.

The ruins are separated into a few areas; first, the simple maze that ends in the first chamber, the second is the opening created by the earthquake that leads to the 500 meters long narrow path going down to the huge chamber, and then lastly, the secret chamber.

Alex doesn’t plan on letting them reach the huge chamber. He planned to settle everything on the first chamber. The tricky part is to not let any of them die and get pass him as he needs to keep as many of them alive. He is currently waiting for the enemy in the first chamber, it's about the size of two basketball court. He stands near the opening that leads to the huge chamber. This time, he wasn’t worried at all, the golem itself could easily defeat them.

Not long after, Alex hears the sound of footsteps. As expected, they were not going to give up that easily. Alex truly wondered who these guys are.

One after another they walk into the first chamber, Alex and the Nazi group can see each other, but none of them have yet to take any action. Alex just waited patiently until all of them have reached the inside of the chamber.

First, Alex saw Robert, then surprisingly, the man with the white shirt was there, and he appeared to be uninjured. This raises suspicion in Alex and provides him more reason to capture them.

Robert is the first to talk,

"Mr. Alex, I have been to this ruins many times before, I assure you there is no other exit except for this one, don't make it harder for yourself, you are trapped."

The guy with the white shirt then added,

"Mr. Alex, we are very much interested in you, hand over all of your items and come with us. We are also very much interested with the rock golem that you have, and also in whatever artifact you found in this ruins."

"You mean this golem?"

Alex summons out the golem and everyone suddenly becomes tense.

The guy in the white shirt have now finally seen the golem close up, he suddenly feels intimidated by its huge frame. Setting aside the pressure, he was really excited to see this artifact and he so much desired it.

"Hand over that golem and I will let you leave this place."

"What about the others?"

"Only just you."

"No deal."

Suddenly the golem sprints forward really fast towards the group. The golem has the speed of Peak Stage Mortal Realm, it moves even faster than Alex. The group, startled, quickly fires at the golem while jumping to the sides.

CLINK. CLINK. CLINK

The bullets just ricocheted off the golem’s body. Bullets were ineffective against it.

BAAAAMMMMM!!!!

The golem hits the ground in the middle, near the first chamber’s entrance. The golem crashes into Robert and he dies instantly...

Alex hated this type of guy. So he ordered the golem to crash into him while it secured the entrance. Now none of them will be able to leave.

The rest of the group witnessed this scene felt in despair... such speed and strength.

"Spread out! Aim at that guy! Not the golem!”

Alex jumps backwards and retreats through the entrance into the path to the next chamber.

The white shirt guy sends half of his men to delay the golem and sends the other half to chase down Alex.

The situation on the first chamber had become disadvantageous to him. He's not stupid enough to stay in the first chamber and be slaughtered by the golem, he quickly follows the other group.

Before he entered the path going down, he quickly looked back and saw several of his men whom he ordered to stay back were already down. Bullets are not enough to do any damage against the golem, it has the body of a medium grade artifact after all.

But, when he is about to enter the entrance to the next chamber, he sees a body fall to the ground in front of him. One of his men has just dropped in front of him and groans in pain, he rushes inside and saw more of his men lying on the ground. Not long after, he senses something heading straight towards him.

SHHHH...

He dodges. It is a rock pebble, he looks around and sees that most of the men who entered have already dropped down on the ground. Alex picked up small rocks on the ground and threw it at them. Alex then rushes to advance for close combat, once Alex is too close, it's going to be hard for them to use their rifles. In less than 10 seconds, all of his 12 men were lying on the ground.

Now there are only 2 of them in that narrow path, more stones were being thrown at him.

SHHH...SHHH...

He dodges the stones again, but when he looks back at Alex, he sees him holding a gun and takes a shot.

BANG...

It is a direct hit, but it only pushes him down. He tries to stand and stares at the figure facing him, trying to think about what had just happened... Apparently, this Alex didn't enter the path to run away but he purposely lured them in. In just a matter of few seconds, all of his men were down, he never thought that this guy named Alex is a monster as well. He suddenly felt regret in his decision to charge in rashly...

Alex slowly walks closer to him.

"Interesting... It seems that you have an artifact on you…”

Alex checked the guy clothes and found something. Underneath his white shirt, there is a low-grade armor artifact.

“This artifact can only be used twice a day. I guess that's it."

BAMM...

Alex hits him in the head and he passes out... Now all of them should have been neutralized.

Alex gathers all of them in a line. The golem watched over them while he called for Aria and the others to join him. The group can't believe that it only took Alex a few minutes to settle the situation.

Cindy said, "Should I call the police?"

Alex replied, "This could become an international problem, just leave this to me."

Then he told Aria to bring the professor and Cindy back to the city. He also said that he will catch up with them later... Aria senses that Alex is trying to hide something from her, but she still follows his order.

A few minutes later inside the first chamber, there are 16 men lined up and tied up. Most of the men who faced the golem died during the fight. Slowly, one by one they all woke up. The guy with the white shirt woke up last and saw all his men were tied up next to him. The man in front of them stares at them quietly. This situation doesn't look too good for them.

"Good, now that everyone is awake. I need information. And I will only release the one who answers my question. Easy, right?"

The men stared at him with defiance in their eyes, but Alex went ahead and asked,

“First question, tell me about the organization you work for?”

"PHHUIII...."

One guy near Alex spits on the ground and said,

"We are not afraid to die."

"Wrong answer..."

Alex took something from his storage ring… It is the new artifact, The Amulet of the Sun

Alex puts a drop his blood into it, the amulet shines a little. After putting a drop of his blood into the amulet, he can feel the energy of the amulet in him. Just like the golem, a human can interact with an artifact telepathically, he can now understand what is the function of the amulet. The Amulet of the Sun, it is one of the unique medium grade artifacts.

Alex can feel that the amulet is currently sealed, and to activate the amulet, it requires something... Its thirst for life force..

"Just as I heard."

Alex already knows the existence of this amulet in his previous life. The amulet gave out light energy once in a while. This light could then be absorbed or condensed into a crystal which could heal any disease or cure a dying man back to life.

Alex was hoping that this amulet would be the solution to save her daughter from the disease. But there is one unique requirement, before it can be activated, the amulet requires life sacrifices. Alex could feel its hunger for sacrifice. This might have something to do as for why the Aztec does many human sacrifices to worship their Sun God, Huitzilopochtli.

Alex then brings the amulet closer. He places it in the guy’s forehead and then suddenly, a flash of light comes out from the amulet. The guy felt his life being suck into the amulet...

HHHHHNNNGGGHH...

The guy didn't even have any energy to scream. His body turned thin, his face became wrinkled, his hair turned white... All of these happened in less than three seconds.

The guy’s drops down to the ground.

THUD...

Dead...

"!!!"

The other 15 people who were seeing this turned pale...

"Now who has a better answer?"
