HISD Chapter 58 Reality Ends, Everything Perishes
Southern City, supernatural department branch.
Inside and outside the building, chaos reigned—agent and fog monster corpses littered the area.
"Hold on, just a little longer!"
In a police uniform, Ying Zi gritted her teeth, sweat covering her pale face as she carried a male agent with a severed arm, unconscious, down the stairs.
Every other agent in the branch had already perished.
Ying Zi, at her limit, misstepped and fell down the stairs with the agent.
The agent, already severely injured, now teetered on the edge of life and death.
Ying Zi tried to get up but lacked the strength.
"Can anyone… help me?"
She weakly opened her eyes and glanced toward the fog outside. Only silence answered her.
In a haze, she instinctively touched the white bone horn around her neck and blew softly.
Wuuu!
The piercing, commanding horn echoed through the first floor and into the fog-shrouded city, fading into the distance.
"What am I doing?" Ying Zi bitterly smiled, lowering the horn.
At that moment, engines roared. Three armored vehicles skidded to a halt in the fog, and a dozen armed personnel dismounted quickly.
The one-eyed man leading them waved and shouted, "Stay alert! Rescue and evacuate!"
Someone actually came?
Ying Zi's mind went blank, and she fainted.
When she awoke, she was lying in the back of an armored vehicle, a blanket over her, traveling through the fog at a steady pace.
"Who are you…" Ying Zi asked cautiously.
The one-eyed man in the passenger seat turned, voice firm: "We are senior agents sent from Kunlun HQ yesterday, here to transfer your branch's contained subject SAS-1666."
"Oh, it's you." Ying Zi remembered the silver-haired boy and murmured, "Unfortunately, that subject escaped."
"That's no longer important." The one-eyed man shook his head, eyes on the fog outside. "Without coming here ourselves, we couldn't have assessed the invasion inside the city in time."
"Are we going to rescue people now?" Ying Zi asked.
"No, we're evacuating, leaving the fog-covered city." The senior agent captain's answer was decisive.
Ying Zi's eyes widened. "But our branch leaders…"
"They're already dead," the one-eyed man said calmly. "Communication may be down, but we can confirm by special means that they died over an hour ago."
"Leaders…" Ying Zi's eyes darkened. "But there must still be other survivors in the city."
"Newbie!"
The man interrupted sternly. "Don't you understand? What's happening in your city is an S-class—or even higher—level invasion!"
"This city is beyond saving! Our only option is to evacuate, report to the Federation, and completely finish it off to prevent impact on nearby cities!"
Ying Zi was stunned.
She hadn't expected Tianhe City's invasion to be so severe that the entire city would have to be abandoned. A city of six million, renowned for technology!
Her face hardened. "Finish it off… meaning?"
The one-eyed man's tone was cold and absolute: "We're requesting nuclear support. Only then can we deal with this historic, large-scale invasion."
Southern City outskirts.
With help from others, Pan Hu climbed onto a moving truck holding nearly thirty survivors.
Looking back at the receding military base, he was dazed, unable to forget the spined humanoid he had seen.
So powerful, ferocious, grotesque, and perfect, like a god beyond sight!
"Fortunately, it's not interested in weak humans like me," Pan Hu muttered, realizing this same humanoid had toppled the goat-like creatures earlier.
Suddenly, the city shook violently. From the base, fog surged, accompanied by piercing wails.
Strong storms carried over to their position.
This was clearly a battle of monsters and gods.
For some reason, Pan Hu sincerely hoped the spined humanoid would win.
Boom!
Breaking the sound barrier, the humanoid leapt into the sky, catching a massive horn breaking through the clouds.
Its two-meter frame unleashed unimaginable power. Crimson lightning coursed along the exoskeleton as it pinned struggling goat-like creatures to the ground.
Faced with the wailing, stamping creatures, the humanoid opened its mouth in rage. Destructive energy surged, releasing from its eye sockets and mouth.
Next moment.
Sss!
Three crimson beams cut through the fog like divine swords, slicing toward the massive goat-like bodies!
Even from the truck several kilometers away, Pan Hu and the survivors could see the blazing streaks across the city.
A giant orb, the size of a small hill, crashed through the base and rolled toward the fog near their truck.
The survivors froze.
It was a giant goat head, eerie and black, alone comparable to a mountain!
A creature capable of withstanding modern missiles, yet fully suppressed and killed. Its neck charred, head cleanly severed—a scene the survivors would never forget, a true miracle.
Inside the fog-shrouded city, the headless body fell with a crash.
The humanoid roared, red flames burning in its eyes, destruction radiating, showing no sign of weakening.
Half-human, half-destruction Yi Meng turned, breaking the sound barrier with a hurricane, leaping at other fog monsters.
Each monster killed was replaced by more from the other dimension—why this invasion couldn't be fully contained.
Yet, to Yi Meng, the fog zone was paradise, a place to unleash destructive will without losing control.
Monsters hunted humans, but to him, humans were mere toys to vent destruction.
Monsters were endless so destruction was endless as well.
Yi Meng, enveloped in sizzling destructive energy, didn't know how many fog monsters he killed, while evacuated areas were further ravaged.
Only the black goat-like monsters could satisfy him; others disintegrated at mere contact with his lightning.
From noon to afternoon, tireless.
Until…
Yi Meng realized the invasion's fog monsters spawned too slowly to match his unleashed destruction.
"I still need to invade the dream, to control power at its root…"
Standing atop the city's tallest building, the humanoid exoskeleton whispered, voice raspy yet not human.
At that moment.
Whoosh!
A fat, round missile head streaked through the fog toward the city center hundreds of meters above.
"I knew it. Come!"
Yi Meng's bone-white face was expressionless, fearless, moving toward the missile with destructive intent. The magical doll at his side swayed violently but remained attached.
Next moment.
Boom—!
Blinding daylight erupted, visible even through thick fog, followed by an indescribable shockwave and electromagnetic pulse, leveling the city outward from the center.
Countless modern buildings were destroyed, a massive mushroom cloud tore through the fog.
Endless radiation consumed the surrounding area and life.
Federation exams over.
Tianhe City, nuked!
