Chapter 249

"Ah? There are still followers of 'Nihility' inside the Xianzhou?"

"What's hard to understand about this? Xianzhou people have long lives, there are few changes in positions, and except for top students and geniuses, promotions are rare in a hundred years. Ordinary people can't compete with those real monsters in terms of talent. When they first enter society, they have passion, but after working for decades or hundreds of years, they naturally understand that lying flat is the only right path."

"But this world is facing the real end of the world, which is a bit different from the lying flat of the Xianzhou...?"

"No difference. No matter how much you resist, you can't stop the arrival of the end of the world. It's better to enjoy it early. If it were me, I would organize a party."

"Hmm? You're not calling me to the party?"

"Tell me more about the party."

Since the beginning of the apocalypse, the Federation had summoned internet companies, urgently built a website, pushed it to everyone, and established a corresponding early warning mechanism.

This seemed to be a good way to struggle, but the shortcomings were also obvious. They accelerated the spread of panic, spreading like cancer.

Joel felt that the Federation was the biggest anti-human gang. Even the coldest doctor wouldn't squat in front of a terminally ill patient all day and say to him:

"You have 30 days left to live... Oh, your heart rate suddenly accelerated, now you have 20 days left... Okay, buddy, calm down, now you have 10 days left... Hey, nurse, notify the family, the patient just passed away."

"Ding!"

Mobile phone notification sound, not the arrival of a golden finger.

【Everyone:

Are we going to watch humanity continue to crush each other endlessly?

Are we going to watch humanity squander the resources they possess?

Are we going to watch humanity continue their arrogance and sin?

Pick up your weapons and smash everything about humanity to pieces.

They should fear, because we are the things that end them.

For all the beauty of this world, to end this endless cycle, we are the Chaos Insurgency, and the war has never ended.】

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"..."

August 7th, Monday.

【Final Notice:

From today, the federal government will enter silence and will no longer release any information. I wish all human compatriots can survive smoothly.】

This was the last text message.

"I wish... this was just a dream, and I would still be moved when I wake up."

Joel clenched his hair with both hands, using pain to awaken the courage to live on.

No matter how much he indulged in games, it was useless. The hammer of reality shouted "80! 80! 80!" time and again, smashing the barrier of his heart.

The gunshots outside the room were intermittent, like heavy rain, bursting densely inadvertently, and disappearing after the magazine was emptied.

The victims often didn't have time to make a sound before they lay on the ground, either dragged away or left in place.

There was a moment of peace, making people think they could breathe, and then new gunshots came, far and near, everywhere.

Outside the wall, the low thudding sound of flesh was continuous, making the anxious Joel a bit angry.

The girls started screaming and cursing, but soon, only crying was left. After a while, they didn't even have the strength to cry, and finally, there was no movement.

Only the collision remained.

The farm tools in the yard hadn't thought about breaking into the room and looting all supplies.

After failing to break down the doors, windows, and walls one after another, they learned from their ancestors on the grassland and satisfied their desires outdoors.

Such things were commonplace and not crazy.

Joel had practiced good marksmanship with scum, hitting whatever he pointed at within two hundred meters, but he had no experience in close-quarters gunfights, let alone experience in facing a violent gang of ten or more people alone.

He held his gun, pressed his ear against the wall, estimated the physical exertion of those bastards, and prepared to catch them off guard when they were exhausted.

But.

Without any warning, thick fog quickly appeared outside the window, shrouding the entire block within it. The dim fog covered the field of vision, and then tall, twisted shadows moved within it.

Joel quickly hid, his body pressed against the wall, avoiding the window.

At this moment, only the fortress-like house could give him a sense of security.

"My God..."

Joel had no expression.

Silence, only death-like silence.

The reaction of the bastards outside the wall was obviously a few seconds slow. Joel maliciously hoped that they didn't even have the chance to draw their guns.

"Damn!"

Bang, bang, bang—

After the panicked screams, there were continuous gunshots.

But obviously, it was useless.

"Ah—!"

The scream had just come out when it quickly moved away, as if someone had accidentally stepped into the air and fallen from a cliff.

But this was a vast plain, and there would be no gullies next to the house. There was only one answer.

—They had risen into the high sky!

That huge figure in the fog was preying.

Joel held his breath, motionless, for fear of making any movement and attracting the monster in the thick fog.

"Holy shit!"

"What the hell!"

In the footage, Joel hid carefully, not exposing himself to the monster's field of vision, but this did not prevent the audience from witnessing its true appearance.

Outside the window, there was a blurry figure similar to a human, gradually approaching the window. This figure had a good body, with full breasts and a fat butt, and a slim waist.

Just when the audience thought it was a surviving girl coming to seek help, the figure stuck to the window and revealed its true appearance.

It indeed had the face of a young girl, but that was only the face.

It was a cluster of tentacles holding a girl's head, the gray tentacles were covered with yellow eyes, and the bulging tumors were densely packed.

The small yellow eyes stuck to the glass, constantly flowing, observing the movement inside the room.

After confirming that there was no one, the monster's figure retreated back into the thick fog, gradually fading and disappearing.

Just at the moment when the audience let out a sigh of relief.

It suddenly fell from above, countless eyes filled with malice, greedily staring through the window at everything inside, and the mouthparts full of sharp blades were flowing with red liquid.

If Joel had been slightly relaxed just now and exposed himself to its field of vision, he would have died without a doubt!

Only then did the audience truly see the appearance of the monster.

Its main body was hanging high in the sky, a large black shadow hidden in the thick fog, countless tentacles hanging down from the sky, like branches hanging down from a banyan tree, hunting in the human living area.

And this human part was just the end of a tentacle.

Such a scene made the audience's adrenaline soar.

"Fuck, scared the hell out of me. The Foundation definitely doesn't want us to sleep today."

"Heh, just this? Suggest increasing the intensity!"

"Laughing to death, the screen has been covered, I don't know what happened at all."

"Just went out on a date with a Foxian lady, brought her to watch the Foundation's live broadcast, have already successfully hugged the lady, thanks to the Foundation, thanks to Administrator, by the way, thanks to the end of the world."
