Just like what Alex 'predicted', the world abruptly came to its end. Sudden outbreak of a plague, the dead rose from their graves, and if you think that was crazy then wait when they evolved into more menacing red zombies. The situation became even crazier when the black one came into the picture.

As the saying goes, what didn't kill you will make you stronger. Slowly but surely, humans adapted and overcame every trial thrown at them. The stronger the enemy they faced against, the stronger they became.

The doomsday pillars that appeared exactly on the hundredth days after the apocalypse gave hope that once again humanity would survive. At least that was the case, until the Tribulation arrived.

The tribulation days, the days when hell literally broke loose and announced its advent on Earth. Thousands of seemingly bottomless pits opened their maws and unleashed millions of abominations, flooding the planet with terror. Once again, humanity was under siege. 

Just like all the other places on Earth, the United States too had to pull all their citizens who had been able to occupy their lost city back toward the nearest doomsday pillar all the while battling critters, hellhounds and gargoyles that swarmed them like hive bees.

Unfortunately, not all bases managed to be emptied before the tribulation day. One of such places was the Las Vegas base managed by General Daniel Campbell.

While on the north side of the city, an operation was being commenced which was then followed with a huge battle between United States marines and fighters alike. From the west, another group was seen heading toward the city.

"All right fellas. We are on a search and rescue mission team for the one General Daniel Campbell, or what is left of him and his team. The main army has A-team who lure and battle those abominations in the north side of the city as we speak, so it will be somewhat easy. But with those monsters, who knows what they have in store."

Lieutenant Erick was speaking in front of his men, a platoon of sky realm fighters. 

Among these platoons, five of them were seen a little out of place. They didn't have any military ranking, instead they were all previously professional sportsmen. Gordie, Dan, Chris Rob and Glen. They are the famous 5 The Grogs brothers.

The past one year since Doomsday had started, they have proven themselves as great fighters and been doing a lot of missions with the military. All of them have reached sky realm warrior, with Rob the most talented among them having successfully reached the mid skyrealm spirit enhancer. With that, he was the strongest fighter of the whole platoon.

"What's the situation, Lieutenant?" Gordie the eldest of the Grogs brothers asked.

"Our intel said that the General and his men as well as several civilians have been bunking up in Venetian Casino ever since the first day of the tribulation day."

"Ten days? They must be something if they can manage to hold those monsters at bay for that long." Dan said, somewhat amazed.

"Add that to the fact that they garrisoned the building with a minimum amount of weapons and were hundreds of miles away from the nearest pillar. So yeah, they are something."

Suddenly from the earpiece that was attached to the lieutenant's ear, a female voice gave them the signal they had been waiting for.

[Team B Lieutenant Erik, you are good to go!]

"That's our call sign team, pack up and roll out." Lieutenant Erick ordered.

"Sir, yes sir!"

Moments later, two large armored vehicles swiftly drove into the city from the west. The trucks were fully armed and heavily fortified with plates of tier 2 metal, making it look like a pair of ferocious metal beasts.

As they drove into the city of Las Vegas, loud booms were heard now and then signifying that the battle to lure the critters was still ongoing.

"Sounds like a fun party! Too bad we ain't invited!" muttered some of the soldiers.

"Don't worry soldier, we will have our fair share of fun on this side too." said the lieutenant as he glanced at those who spoke.

"Yes Sir! I look forward to it, Sir!"

The ride into the city was uneventful to say the least. Aside from the wrecked cars or flipped cargoes, nothing a fully plated armored vehicle could deal with.

The soldiers who rode the truck were sweating buckets. But even then, despite the scorching heat of the sun and the dry air of Mojave Desert, the spirit among the soldiers was at an all-time high. 

A moment later, the two large trucks finally came to a stop. They stopped just a block away from Las Vegas Boulevard. They came into view of a tall rectangular majestic building of one Venetian Casino.

"Here we go lads, ramp down!" Lieutenant Erick barked along the way to the back of the vehicles.

The teams were fully armed with the newest protective gear that protected their body from head to toe.  They also came bearing the new assault rifle that was recently researched successfully and one rod with a peculiar button as their standar weapons. These equipment were comparable with the top of tier 2 artifacts, all built and made from the Area 51 research facility.

However, considering their situation now, the group must keep their gun on their back and take out their rod and their own personal melee weapons. after all, they weren't dumb enough to announce their presence with the loud gunshots.

As the platoon were moving into the famous casino, another voice came into the lieutenant's ear pieces.

[B team, are you in position?]

"We're here!" the Lieutenant answered.

[Our last contact with the general stated that they locked themselves up in the vault room. Remember, the VIP is the top priority! Do you copy?]

"Loud and clear."

[Good luck lieutenant, over!]

The Lieutenant quickly said to his platoon

"Listen up boys! Armed and ready, we are going in."
