Divine Punishment, The Final Judgment Day

Gurgle gurgle!!

The giant greedily devoured large quantities of canned food and mineral water from the supply shelves behind him. The ground was soon littered with empty cans, like a glutton.

The food entered the Tower of Babel through its mouth, allowing the army within the tower to eat. Simultaneously, a special, rudimentary digestive process centered on the spine was absorbing energy from the food.

Flesh was growing.

Meridians spread throughout the bones.

Is this the growth rate of a normal human? The skeleton before him had transformed into a muscular, well-proportioned, vibrant red lifeform with flesh and blood, continuing to lengthen its leg bones and stretch its body, reaching a towering and robust height of 1.8 meters!

This speed of eating and multiplying flesh was far beyond that of a normal human. It was truly a super-human zombie based on the Zombie Lord template!

This gargantuan lifeform, engaged in frantic consumption, had no eyes, ears, or nose.

Its appearance was simply a white wax-like being constructed from muscle and bone. Otherwise, it would have seen the expression on someone's face outside the Crystal Wall.

It was pity.

Li Qing's gaze was like that of a prison guard watching a prisoner have his last supper.

Once Li Qing understood the true goal behind the construction of the Tower of Babel, he merely observed a grand, tragic film of civilization: war, schemes, overt and covert strategies, and tricks. The Great Emperor of Atabia was an outrageous scientific madman. If he hadn't been mad, he wouldn't have excitedly sought Li Qing out during the Ultraviolet Radiation apocalypse, nor would he have built the Tower of Babel, a mad creation, in a bid to become a God.

But Li Qing suddenly felt a sense of sorrow.

Because the Great Emperor of Atabia, by building the Tower of Babel, was handing Li Qing the very blade to kill him.

Hiding everywhere as a small lifeform, the single-celled organisms constantly evolved and adapted to extinction, unable to do anything to him. But by becoming so large, merging with the giant, and attempting to perfect its genes and continuously evolve?

From the other's perspective, it wasn't wrong: Look! How powerful is God? How immense is God's size? So, evolve directly into God in one go, using God's massive flesh as a template to grow in this world, and ultimately be able to resist the Outer Gods!

But he had no idea:

God was far from as powerful as he imagined.

It was all a lie, God was a weakling.

In the real world, humans had never conquered the ubiquitous bacteria.

Instead, human lives were more fragile; a single bullet could end a life, just as fragile as Ning Guochang, otherwise, he wouldn't have committed suicide.

The larger the body, the bigger the target.

Previously, there weren't many ways for him to eliminate it, as this king was elusive, and its true form was unknown. But now, there were hundreds of ways to eliminate it!

After all, this was a free country; it wouldn't even be difficult to get a gun and shoot him.

As for it not being a true lifeform, having no vital points, and being able to repair wounds repeatedly?

He probably didn't know.

Caliber is justice, ammunition is truth.

Many wealthy individuals in this country enjoyed building private armories, storing tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of rounds of ammunition. What use was repair? Bullets were incredibly cheap. You've grown so large, you'll be blown to pieces.

Li Qing suddenly recalled a quote from The Unbearable Lightness of Being:

When humans think, God laughs.

Of course, he wasn't trying to mock, nor did he have the right to.

The other's wisdom and talent placed him among the Atabians in a position comparable to Earth's scientists like Newton and Einstein, a great figure who led the era of civilization.

This great founder of civilization was not someone an ordinary worker like himself could mock.

Was it just that living in a narrow bottle, the more one thought, the closer one would necessarily get to the truth? Were there no Einsteins in ancient times? No other wise men?

No.

No matter how intelligent they were, they would be limited by the backward understanding of their era, living in information cocoons, even resorting to superstition and believing the Earth was flat.

Thinking of this, Li Qing was filled with emotion. He spoke from outside the Crystal Wall:

"Great Emperor of Atabia, as the first sage living on the ancient, primitive land, you have strived enough, amazed enough, and defied enough to reach this point."

The Great Emperor of Atabia, who was devouring food with large gulps, froze slightly.

Hearing this sentence, which sounded like an epitaph for his entire life, a strange fear began to spread within him.

What did this mean?

Was entering God's forbidden zone, becoming God, my death sentence?

He suddenly put down his food and, turning around, immediately punched the Crystal Wall.

Bang!

Bones instantly shattered.

Flesh exploded into a mist of blood.

The toughness of the Crystal Wall had reached an incredible level.

"Mortal on the ground, you have strived enough," Li Qing suddenly said, leaving only a few words: "I hope you can survive Judgment Day."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Atabia's heart underwent a violent change.

Boom!

BOOM!

He continued to throw punches.

He struggled frantically, adjusting his muscle and bone structure once more like before, uniting his essence, spirit, and mind, attempting to shatter the Crystal Wall of this world, constantly evolving, adjusting his structure like opening a can of beef.

Unfortunately, it was all meaningless.

"What?"

"This is impossible, it's completely unresponsive."

"It's so transparent, yet so hard!"

"Your Majesty, according to simple measurements, the material of our bones currently cannot shatter this structure at all!"

"Impossible, this is the power of a God! This is a God! An omnipotent God! How can a God not shatter the Crystal Wall??"

"Even the power of a God can't shatter the Crystal Wall? I see, this might be a restriction of the world's rules, which explains why powerful Outer Gods cannot easily descend into our world."

Within the Tower of Babel, countless scholars' voices rose and fell in continuous discussion.

Unlike a can tab.

The material of this resilient Crystal Wall was unimaginable, on a completely different level.

It was as if no matter how much one evolved, as long as they were still a carbon-based life form made of bone and flesh, they would be utterly defenseless against this material.

And at this very moment.

The Outer God's cold voice echoed in the emperor's mind, who was controlling the giant, and resonated throughout all living beings in the world, its majestic voice reverberating through all the ocean cities.

"The people on the ground are extremely wicked, arrogant, and unrepentant blasphemers of the Creator God."

The voice pierced the sky and rained down upon the earth.

"This civilization is about to end, and this is the day when humanity's fate shall be judged."

Beyond the Crystal Wall, the colossal deity that towered into the clouds, like a giant from outside the world, appeared to grasp the entire world, its figure containing all the laws and principles of heaven and earth.

It was looking down upon the entire humble earth, overlooking the entire kingdom of cities built like toy blocks.

"I shall bring forth Judgment Day!"

"I will judge the sinners on the earth, hell will cover the entire world, and the wicked will be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone to perish forever."

The incomparably majestic consciousness wave transmitted to every corner of the world, like the origin of all life, with the radiance of primordial divinity.

In the imperial city, a melee battle was still underway.

Suddenly, the warriors on both sides paused, everyone listening to the voice, their minds going blank.

The final judgment was about to begin.

The Outer God was about to immediately trigger the next mass extinction!
