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

The most devastating change occurred directly above the base.

The thick red mist condensed into a vortex with a diameter of one kilometer. At the center of the vortex, a "tether" made up of countless human remains slowly descended, with the end connected to a translucent scarlet embryo.

Through the membrane, one could see a humanoid creature curled up inside. With each heartbeat, the ground of the Dragon Royal Base trembled, as if the entire land was becoming the placenta of a monster.

A certain psychic ability user glanced at the embryo and suddenly knelt down and vomited a large clump of tangled mycelium. Tiny tentacles emerged from his ear canals, and a pulse that was synchronized with the embryo's heartbeat appeared under his skin.

Mengde finally drew his Thunder Blade.

The moment the blade was drawn, flames and lightning intertwined to form a spiraling torrent of energy, temporarily repelling the approaching mist.

But everyone knew that this was just a brief stalemate before the apocalypse. The red mist was thickening in the sky, eventually swallowing up even the glow of the flames, leaving only a suffocating dark red, like congealed blood covering the entire base.

In a sudden moment, countless eyes opened in the mist, blinking at the same frequency, reflecting the tiny, ant-like humans on the ground.

When the first drop of scarlet "rain" landed on the back of Mengde's hand, he realized that it was not a water droplet, but a mist of mycelium with vitality.

The stinging sensation of them penetrating the skin heralds the true beginning of this battle for survival—the blood-red curtain of the apocalypse has been drawn!

And everyone in the Imperial Dragon Base will become an actor forced to improvise on this crazy stage.

This is precisely why Mengde's worries deepened.

He immediately frowned.

Through his telekinesis, he could sense a crimson monster approaching the Dragon Royal Base from within the red mist.

His intervention did not prevent the arrival of this scarlet monster!
As the crimson sunset was swallowed up by the rolling red mist, the alarm system of the Dragon Royal Base suddenly emitted a piercing shriek.

The sound was like the sound of fingernails scraping glass amplified ten thousand times, instantly shattering the tranquility of the entire base.

Mengde stood on the central watchtower, watching the distant horizon begin to undulate—it was no illusion, the entire land was bulging and festering like rotting skin.

The guards on the east wall were the first to notice the anomaly.

He later said he smelled a mixture of rust and rotting flesh, and then discovered that the surface of the alloy wall was oozing a scarlet slime.

The slime seemed to have a life of its own, climbing along the metal's texture and leaving behind honeycomb-like corrosion marks wherever it went.

When he reached out to touch it, the skin on his entire arm immediately peeled off like melted wax, revealing fleshy red fungal hyphae that were proliferating wildly beneath the skin.

The real terror comes from underground.

With a sickening cracking sound, the outer defenses of the base suddenly collapsed.

Twelve scarlet tentacles, each over three meters in diameter, burst forth from the ground. Each tentacle was covered with opening and closing human mouths—the faces of the patrolmen who had gone missing last week!

A barbed tongue extends from its open mouth, the tip of which has a miniature human head, emitting a scream like a baby crying.

"Fire! All fire!"

Lei Qiang's roar exploded in the communicator.

But when a heavy machine gun bullet enters the tentacle, it's like hitting a pool of viscous asphalt, only creating a few ripples on the surface.

Even more terrifying was that the hit area would suddenly split open, spewing out a torrential downpour of acid. Mengde witnessed the riot shields of the third squad smoking and melting under the acid, and the soldiers behind them were like ants doused with strong sulfuric acid, their flesh and bones dissolving into pink foam within ten seconds.

When the Lord's tentacles were fully revealed, even Montesquieu felt a chill run down his spine.

It was a tower of flesh and blood formed from the twisted bodies of countless humans, with hundreds of semi-fused bodies writhing at its base, their exposed spines swaying like the legs of centipedes.

The top of the tower is a huge lumps of flesh with a diameter of twenty meters, the surface of which is covered with pulsating blood vessels. Every three seconds, it contracts violently and spews out a cloud of scarlet spores with the stench of corpses from the top.

The base's energy shield groaned under the corrosive effects of the spore cloud.

Those spores will take root immediately upon landing on the metal surface, and within five minutes they will grow into a two-meter-tall fleshy shrub.

The most terrifying thing was when a "shrub" suddenly burst open, and seven complete human figures rolled out of it—all of them were soldiers who went out on patrol yesterday!

They retained the terrified expressions they had before death, but the abdominal cavity of each corpse had turned into a transparent membrane, and it was clear that what was pulsating inside was not organs, but densely packed red insect eggs.

"Watch out for the ground!"

Niu Baoguo's Taoist robe suddenly burst into flames, but he didn't bother to put it out; he just stared intently at the suddenly liquefied ground.

The asphalt road surface turned into some kind of gelatinous substance, and countless pale arms were reaching out from underground.

These arms are covered with transparent vesicles resembling fish eggs, each containing a human face.

When the arm grabs a soldier's ankle, the vesicles rupture immediately, and the ejected mucus can instantly stiffen the victim, causing him to tear open his chest like a marionette.

The western wall suddenly collapsed entirely, revealing something that blocked out the sky behind it.

It was a living wall pieced together from zombies and building debris, over fifty meters high, with limbs constantly falling off and regenerating on its surface.

A crack appeared in the center of the city wall, and slowly opened a compound eye with a diameter of over eight meters—made up of thousands of human eyeballs!

Each eyeball rotates independently, its pupils reflecting the horrific scene of the base from different angles.

The moment the anti-aircraft missile struck the compound eye, the entire wall of flesh and blood suddenly swelled up like a pufferfish.

When it exploded, tens of thousands of bone fragments swept through like shotgun shells, turning three machine gun bunkers in the eastern district into sieves.

Even more deadly was the splattering slime. One soldier was only splashed on the cheek, and his entire face melted into a skull within thirty seconds, while his body continued to run until he crashed into a burning armored vehicle.

The real nightmare only begins when the first line of defense completely collapses.

A thunderous tremor came from underground, and twelve humanoid monsters, each thirty meters tall, burst forth from the ground.

They had torsos similar to humans, but each limb was pieced together from different creatures—Mengde clearly saw that one of the right arms was made entirely of tangled police dogs, whose heads were still frantically tearing at each other.

These monsters have huge, transparent cavities embedded in their chests, filled with undigested humans. The handprints they leave when pounding the cavity walls sprout teeth the moment they come into contact with air.

What's most disgusting is the way they move.

With each step, its soles split into six petals, like a flower blooming, each petal transforming into a sucker with sharp teeth, swallowing up rubble, corpses, and even armored vehicle wreckage along its path. (End of Chapter)
