The end of the world: The Goddess Catalogue, starting with sisters!

Right there, Master Niu had already set up heavy machine guns with his men, and the dense barrage of fire temporarily suppressed the pursuing zombies.

"Close the door! Close the door now!"

Gao Qiang, panting heavily, directed the guards to close the gates of the Economic Development Zone.

The heavy metal door slowly closed, and the last few zombies that rushed in were crushed into a bloody pulp.

Inside the door, everyone sat slumped on the ground, still shaken.

Gao Qiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Lei Qiang.

"How did these zombies turn out like this?"

They've fought countless battles with zombies during these days of the apocalypse!
But I've never seen such terrifying zombies before!

Their speed and strength were unlike anything they had ever seen before.

Upon hearing this, Lei Qiang shook his head, his expression grave.

"I don't know, but it's definitely related to that red mist."

"I sense a strange energy in the red mist; these zombies may have been enhanced."

Just then, a guard rushed over in a panic.

"Report! A zombie has been discovered behind the wall of the Economic Development Zone."

"They...they're climbing the wall!"

Gao Qiang's heart tightened, and he immediately led his men to the top of the wall.

Looking up, sure enough, swarms of red-eyed zombies were climbing up the wall like geckos, their sharp claws digging into the concrete at incredible speed.

"Everyone, prepare to fight!"

Gao Qiang knew that this time things would probably not end well.

He quickly gave orders for the survivors to take shelter in underground bunkers, while the guards took up high ground and prepared to fight.

Suddenly, the red mist in the sky churned violently, and a piercing shriek came from within it.

Everyone looked up and saw a gigantic monster slowly appear.

It resembles a human, but has bony wings on its back.

Its entire body was covered in scarlet scales, and a pair of blood-red eyes looked down at the ground.

"Then...what is that?"

"A guard asked, trembling."

Gao Qiang gripped the gun tightly, his voice low and menacing.

"Whatever it is, we have to take it down."

The monster opened its massive jaws and let out a deafening roar before swooping down.

The guards' bullets hit its body, but were deflected by its scales, sparks flying everywhere.

"Ability users, concentrate your firepower!"

Lei Qiang unleashed flames again, while Niu Baoguo manipulated earth and rocks in an attempt to trap the monster.

However, the monster's power far exceeded expectations. With a single swing of its claws, it shattered the earthen and stone barrier, and the flames were swallowed up by the red mist surrounding it.

Gao Qiang knew that they alone could not withstand it.

Beneath the churning red mist of the sky, a piercing shriek tore through the silence of despair.

The humanoid scarlet monster spread its bone wings, its scales reflecting an eerie luster in the blood mist. It looked down at the dilapidated walls of the Economic Development Zone, as if admiring the dying struggle of ants.

The guards' bullets struck its scales, scattering feeble sparks.

The lightning from Lei Qiang and Niu Baoguo only stirred up a ripple of red mist around it.

Just as the monster was about to tear through the defenses—

The roar of engines was like the beating of war drums! A convoy broke through the blood mist, and on the roof of the lead vehicle, Meng De's black trench coat fluttered. The long sword "Thunder Radiance" wrapped in lightning in his hand emitted a dazzling blue-white arc of light, echoing the thunderstorm that had not yet dissipated in the sky.

Two golden flames ignited deep within his pupils, a sign of the awakening of an SSS-level superpower, the Flame Overlord—legendary flames powerful enough to incinerate hell!
"It's Boss Mengde!"

Lei Qiang exclaimed in surprise.

Mengde leaped off the roof of the car, his long sword pointed directly at the monster, and said coldly.

"You beast, prepare to die!"

It's too late, it's faster than that!

Mengde slashed out with his longsword!

A fiery power roared, hurtling towards the humanoid scarlet monster like a fire dragon.

Mengde leaped into the air, his trench coat unfurling like the wings of a fallen angel in the gale.

The moment he swung his sword, the SSS-level "Flame Overlord" ability core erupted with scorching heat like a star within his chest cavity. The lightning on the longsword was devoured by the flames, transforming into a crimson-gold fire dragon with distinct scales and claws!

The fire dragon roared and tore through the air, evaporating red mist wherever it passed and melting the asphalt on the ground into boiling tar.

The monster roared and swung its bone wings to block, but the fire dragon bit its right arm. The scarlet scales instantly carbonized under the high temperature of three thousand degrees, revealing the writhing flesh and blood tissue underneath.

"Roar--!"

The monster roared and flung away the afterimage of the fire dragon, its bone wings flapping violently and creating a hurricane.

Its missing right arm regenerated at a speed visible to the naked eye, with viscous scarlet mycelium oozing from the surface of the new scales.

Meng De sneered, and with a clench of his left hand, the scattered fire dragon suddenly condensed into eighteen flaming spears, the tips of which locked onto the monster's joints.

"break."

He clenched his five fingers, and the spear fell like a meteor!
The explosion's fiery wave turned an area of ​​a hundred meters into a furnace. The monster struggled madly in the sea of ​​fire, its left leg pinned to the ground by a spear, its body vaporizing from the knee down.

The flamethrower inserted between the three ribs detonated the core of the red mist inside the chest cavity, blasting open a charred hole.

However, the scarlet mycelium wriggled wildly and began to devour the flame energy to repair its body!
Mengde narrowed his eyes—this monster shared the same origin as the red mist, and ordinary attacks would only become its nourishment.

"Boss Meng! Its weakness is the seventh vertebra!"

Lei Qiang screamed from afar, but his voice was drowned out by the roar of the fire.

Mengde had already noticed something amiss: whenever the flames burned the monster's back, the mycelium would cover one spot with extra density.

He suddenly accelerated, unleashing his full SSS-level "Flame Overlord"!

He transformed into a streak of fiery afterimage, unleashing the second release of his longsword "Thunderous Radiance"—the blade intertwined with lightning and flames, forming a torrent of plasma energy!

Sensing a deadly threat, the monster folded its bone wings into a shield and simultaneously spewed out concentrated red mist bullets from its mouth.

Meng De neither dodged nor evaded; his blade traced a perfect arc, splitting the red mist bullet in two, which exploded into two ineffective clouds of smoke in mid-air.

His figure pierced through the aftershocks of the explosion, the tip of his blade precisely piercing the gap in the bone wing, flames spiraling into it along the blade!
"Flame Domain!!!"

With that low shout, the flames erupting from the blade tip were no longer crimson gold, but a pale white compressed to the extreme.

This is the ultimate form of the SSS-class "Flame Overlord"—the plasma flame at the solar core level!
The monster let out an unprecedented scream as its bone wings were burned from the inside, and pale flames spread along its spine, causing the crimson core of the seventh segment to shatter like glass.

The regenerated mycelium was reduced to ashes under the absolute high temperature, and even the red mist was scorched into a vacuum zone!
The dying monster struggled desperately, its claws tearing towards Mengde's throat.

Mengde discarded his sword and leaned back, grabbing the air with his right hand. The scattered flames instantly solidified into a solidified flame blade, cleaving the monster in two from bottom to top!

Before the charred remains even hit the ground, they were consumed by the remaining flames and turned into scattered ashes.

silence! ! !

Only the crackling sound of flames burning the air echoed across the battlefield.

Mengde raised his hand to recall the long sword, the blade turning a dark red from overloading.

He gazed into the depths of the still churning red mist, the golden flames in his eyes still burning.
