Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Alex quickly set out with his team, but to fully control the mutated vampire warriors, he had to conquer them by force. Coupled with the superchips produced by the Noah supercomputer, he was able to completely control them. These vampire warriors had already lost their own thoughts and now behaved much like robots.

Alex was quite satisfied with this situation, as it ensured that these warriors would unconditionally obey him. Leveraging the latest technology, their marching speed was much faster than before. In just one day, Alex, along with Avril and the vampire warriors, reached a location a hundred kilometers away.

"My king, there seems to be something ahead."

Just as they arrived at the entrance of a valley, Avril immediately noticed something off about the area ahead. Alex merely nodded slightly upon hearing this; he too sensed a strong presence of danger. It was the first time in many years that he had felt such a strong sense of crisis.

Although Alex did not see anything on the opposite side, his intuition about danger convinced him that it was definitely not simple.

Sure enough, as they approached, they encountered an extremely peculiar plant. It was a type of black vine that grew tall and straight upwards. Moreover, parts of these vines had many tooth-like structures that could probably make someone with trypophobia feel nauseous just by looking at them.

These vines were several dozen meters thick, and each vine had spikes that were about two to three meters long.

"My king, be careful! These vines are very strange; they can release toxins." Avril furrowed her brow and warned him. She had only become aware of this plant's existence after the apocalypse.

However, she hadn't expected to encounter such plants in this place.

Alex nodded, then took out a laser gun and fired a beam at the vines in front of him. To his surprise, the laser beam hit the vines and seemed to disappear without a trace, not even causing a splash.

"It seems that non-thermal weapons won't work."

Alex murmured, then ordered the vampire warriors behind him, "Step back a bit, I want to test the mettle of these things."

Hearing this, the vampire warriors retreated, giving Alex a large space to work with. Alex then slowly walked forward, holding a laser sword. He didn't choose to dodge, as he wanted to see what was special about these vines.

Alex approached slowly, then suddenly lifted his leg and kicked at the vine.

Bang...

The vine was kicked several meters away by Alex, and some of the vines even broke into pieces and fell to the ground. However, the vines quickly returned to their original state and began crawling towards Alex again.

Even more strangely, the color of the vines changed from deep purple to green, appearing particularly eerie.

"Interesting!"

A smile appeared on Alex's lips, and he continued to charge at the vines.

Bang... Bang...

In just five seconds, Alex had swung his laser sword thousands of times, each strike accurately hitting the vines. Yet, although the vines were cut, they quickly regrew.

Gradually, the vines seemed to gain a sort of self-awareness, continuously entangling Alex and trapping him within.

"Damn, why are these things so troublesome?"

Alex cursed under his breath, not expecting the vines to possess a will of their own. His attempts to attack the vines had been frustratingly ineffective. However, fortunately, Alex's attacks finally attracted a flock of strange birds.

These birds were pitch-black like ink, their eyes glinting with a crimson glow. Their wings flapped furiously, stirring up wild winds that howled through the entire valley.

"Aooow—"

The strange birds circled in the air, emitting shrieks, then dove down towards Alex.

"I'm going all out!" Alex gritted his teeth, then clutched his laser sword and swung it vigorously.

Hiss, hiss, hiss...

Beams of laser light instantly pierced through the bodies of the birds, blasting them to pieces. However, there were too many of these birds, and even though Alex had killed a great many, the remaining ones continued to swarm like a tide.

Biting down hard, Alex then leaped up, jumping out of the encirclement of the strange birds. Just at that moment, a thunderous rumble approached, and Alex's expression changed drastically.

Turning his head, he saw a colossal creature drawing near.

"It's one of those big guys!" Alex couldn't help but swear. He hadn't expected to encounter a boss-level creature.

Moreover, this creature was more formidable than the typical bosses, and its shape looked somewhat familiar.

Avril, not far away, also furrowed her brow when she saw this scene. Once the creature fully emerged, she gasped in astonishment.

"Mothman!"

Avril was shocked; such a creature only existed in the legends of their vampire race, reportedly having appeared a long time ago.

The creature before them was a variant of Mothman, much larger than the typical ones.

Especially notable were the rows of wings on Mothman's back, each flap generating powerful gusts of wind with astonishing force. Moreover, Mothman is a highly intelligent insect, and its sudden appearance here seemed as if it had been meticulously planned.

At this moment, Alex furrowed his brows, pulling out his most reliable weapon. He roared and charged directly at the creature. In Alex's view, retreat was never an option. No matter how powerful the Mothman might be, he was determined to take it down.

However, the creature didn't pause at all; instead, it met him head-on.

Boom...

The two collided fiercely, creating a loud explosion accompanied by countless sparks and various electrical currents. Alex's body flew backward like a cannonball, while the Mothman stood its ground, unmoved.

But now, Alex's face was pale, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating he was seriously injured. He hadn't expected to encounter such a formidable opponent, but in his nearly indestructible body, all resistance seemed futile.

Yet, Mothman's attack was not so simple. After forcing Alex back, it opened its mouth and expelled a thick green fog. Alex's expression changed slightly; he quickly held his breath and retreated rapidly.

However, Mothman clearly wouldn't let Alex escape easily. It flapped its wings and pursued him again.

Pshhh...

Just as Alex dodged a feather, he felt a tearing pain in his waist. Looking down, he saw a green tendril had pierced his side.
