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

At the base's main gate, Meng De stood before the rusty iron gate, watching Iron Palm and Gale's squad disappear into the morning mist.

His fingers unconsciously rubbed against each other, his knuckles turning white from the force.

The sky in the distance had a sickly grayish-yellow hue, as if it had been contaminated by some invisible toxin.

A hint of worry flashed in Meng De's eyes.

"I hope their trip goes smoothly!"

"I hope they all come back safely!"

Mengde muttered to himself, his voice almost carried away by the wind.

His brows were furrowed, forming a deep furrow between them.

The reason why Mengde had such feelings.

It's not just because of that unknown scarlet monster in the center of Donghai City.

He had already experienced the terror of that unknown crimson monster when he faced the red mist it emitted.

That was absolutely a terrifying monster!

Just thinking about the red mist it emitted sent a chill down Mengde's spine.

You should know that even RVs produced by the system can be corroded.

You can imagine how terrifying it was!
However, it remains to be seen what kind of terrifying creatures will emerge from that unknown crimson heart.

What caused him such anxiety was the monster that attacked his Dragon Base yesterday.

It's also scarlet!

However, the crimson information on his body was not as strong as that in the city center!
Therefore, it wasn't too troublesome for Mengde to handle!

It was easily defeated!
But this served as a wake-up call for Mengde.

He had a hunch that the crimson monster that attacked his base yesterday was just a branch of the unknown monster in the city center!
Or it could be likened to an "offspring".

Therefore, its development level did not reach the terrifying level of the scarlet monster in the city center.

The threat level isn't that high!
Mengde also confirmed this through the system's prompts.

[Mutant Creature: Bloodthirsty Weaver - Maragon]

[Awakened Superpowers: Flesh and Blood Weaving, Crimson Bone Spurs]

[Special Ability Level: Star Chart Level, Three Stars]

[Favorability: -100]

[System Introduction: A humanoid creature formed from hundreds of intertwined scarlet blood vessels, its body constantly oozing corrosive blood plasma. Its head is composed of three beating hearts forming a "face," and six freely retractable bone spurs extend from its spine.]

[The Bloodthirsty Weaver - Maragon is a clone of the unknown crimson monster in the city center, possessing terrifying lethality. Host, please proceed with caution!]

(I won't post the picture of "Bloodthroat Weaver - Maragon" as it might spoil the appetites of the godfathers; it's a bit disgusting.)

The system's notification window flashed in Mengde's field of vision.

The blood-red text was already warning Mengde to be careful.

This system message popped up yesterday.

I just came back in a hurry.

In order to save Jiayi from danger in time, Mengde did not check carefully.

But now, upon closer reading, a chill runs from the soles of my feet straight up my spine.

Just as he had expected.

"A split of the unknown scarlet monster?"

Mengde pondered the meaning of this word, feeling as if a huge boulder was pressing on his chest.

If the monster in the city center can split into such beings, how terrifying must its main body be?
Thinking of this, an unknown pressure weighed heavily on him.

"It seems we still need to be careful!"

That is why Mengde was in a hurry to rebuild the protective wall that had been damaged by the zombie attack.

Without this protective wall, it would be nothing short of a death threat to the ordinary survivors in the base!

If the base were to be breached by a zombie horde one day, these ordinary survivors would face certain death. It was for this reason that he did not go to Donghai City.

"Well, for now, let's get the base's defensive wall sorted out first."

As Meng De pondered this, he walked to the other side of the bridge at the base.

This is the base sentry post that Mengde built earlier.

It was also the first line of defense that Jiayi and her friends used to resist the zombie attack.

However, it has now all been reduced to ruins.

Everywhere you look is a mess:
The gray sky hung low, like a tattered rag soaked in smoke and dust, pressing down on this desolate ruin!

The once impregnable steel wall is now twisted and broken, like a skeleton torn apart by a giant beast.

The exposed steel bars pierced through the concrete, covered in rust, like dried blood scabs.

It is no longer the mighty force it once was, having withstood countless zombie hordes!

Previously, Mengde only treated this place as a sentry post.

But Leng Feng and his men were, after all, retired soldiers, so they naturally knew how to build a more reasonable base defense line.

He's much better than that half-baked boss.

Therefore, some military facilities are also provided here.

For example, a watchtower!
However, the watchtower is no longer as useful as it used to be.

The howling wind swept through the empty watchtower.

It emitted a whistling sound, like the whispers of a dead soul.

The surrounding high-rise buildings used for defense have long since collapsed, with only a few remaining walls barely supporting the crumbling roof.

The cracks were covered with withered, black vines, which, like some kind of parasitic organism, greedily devoured the man-made ruins.

Broken glass lay scattered on the ground, occasionally reflecting faint sunlight like pairs of cold eyes gazing upon this deathly silence.

Rusty weapon remnants and various tattered protective suits were scattered on the ground.

The battle zone, meticulously designed by Leng Feng and specially equipped with heavy machine gun positions and makeshift minefields, was reduced to ruins in just one day yesterday.

Countless corpses lay half-buried in the dust.

These are all superhumans from his base!

Their empty eye sockets stared at the sky, as if questioning the arrival of yesterday's zombie horde.

An overturned armored vehicle lies across the middle of the road.

The gun barrel broke off, and the hatch was wide open.

The internal control panel had long been burned to a crisp, with only a few wires hanging down like withered nerves.

There are three huge, parallel scratches on the side of the vehicle; the metal was easily sliced ​​open like butter.

This is clearly not something an ordinary zombie could do—only that scarlet monster possesses such terrifying destructive power.

The air was thick with the stench of decay and metal oxidation. Occasionally, pebbles were swept up by the wind and struck the abandoned containers with a hollow "thump-thump" sound.

In the distance, several broken cables swayed in the wind like dying tentacles.

What's most chilling are the remaining traces.

Blood!

It's all blood!

After fermenting overnight, they have become viscous and even solidified!
The corpses on the ground stood like a group of silent witnesses.

The sound of the wind seemed to transform into their desperate sobs.

When the dust settles, only ruins remain in eternal silence, waiting to be completely erased by time.

Although Mengde had already seen it from the terrace of Villa No. 1 before.

But when I arrived at the scene, I was still struck by how horrific the scene was.
