Dark Queen Of Apocalypse (by Morgan Hale) novel Chapter 299

Someone in the crowd burped loudly, instantly sending Snake Man’s rage through the roof.

His eyes flickered, and his black pupils slowly morphed into vertical green slits. His tongue grew long and thin, and his head twisted at an unnatural angle.

In the blink of an eye, under everyone’s stunned gaze, he transformed into a gigantic King Cobra.

It stretched 100 feet, its flat head cocked to one side. As its forked tongue flicked in and out, venom sprayed from its fangs, lightly misting over the crowd. Everyone shivered, cold sweat pouring down their bodies.

Even his crews swallowed hard, their throats dry with fear.

Someone thought, ‘Boss is so furious, he actually revealed his true form.

‘How can an ordinary person suddenly turn into something so terrifying?‘

The place was so quiet that anyone could hear a pin drop. Everyone clamped a hand over their mouth, barely daring to breathe, afraid the King Cobra would single them out.

The King Cobra gave the crowd a casual glance, then its long, forked tongue lashed out and wrapped around the man who’d burped, instantly swallowing him whole.

“Oh my god,” someone yelled.

Everyone screamed in terror and scrambled back, but behind them was the Mutant Boar. If they took one more step, they’d end up as Mutant Boar food.

Those with fragile nerves fainted from the shock.

The King Cobra moved through the crowd as if nothing could stop it, swallowing people whole one after another, as if it were feasting at an all–you–can–eat buffet.

In just a few seconds, less than half of the hundred–plus people remained.

Everyone stared at the King Cobra in terror, overwhelmed by helplessness and despair. All they could do was watch as their companions were devoured right before their eyes.

A few seconds later, the King Cobra finally seemed full. It leaped onto the platform and shifted back into its human form as Snake Man.

With a satisfied look, Snake Man gazed down at the terrified crowd, his tongue flicking out to lick the blood from the corner of his mouth. His voice was chilling, like a demon risen straight from hell.

“So? Are you ready to talk now?” Snake Man asked.

Everyone scrambled back in terror. Even Snake Man’s companion, the one fanning him, had gone ghostly pale. His hand shook so much he nearly dropped the fan more than once.

There was a loud thud as someone’s legs gave out, and they collapsed to the ground.

Someone fell to the ground and curled up, shaking like a leaf, unable to stop trembling. “Don’t eat me, please! I’ll talk, I’ll tell you everything!”

People were dropping like flies, curled up one after another, scared out of their wits by what they’d just seen

None of them meant to drop to the ground. It was just that their legs had turned to jelly, unable to support their weight.

Snake Man looked satisfied with their fear. He pointed at the person in front and said, his voice cold and indifferent, “Speak

The man went rigid, his face frozen in terror. “S–say what?”

When he saw Snake Man’s face darken, he suddenly remembered. “Oh, right. The secrets of the base!”

He started sobbing, “Please, sir, there aren’t any secrets in the base! Well, maybe there’s one. There’s a huge cave in the mountain behind the base, and it’s packed with dried meat and drinking water.”

Snake Man gave his companions a meaningful glance, and two powered humans led a Mutant Boar away.

Snake Man asked, “Alright, spill it. How did you manage to build such a massive base? And why isn’t your land infected? Doe your base chief have any abilities besides healing? What’s his rank?

“With a base this big, there’s no way a bunch of losers keep it safe. There’s gotta be some real heavy hitters hiding here, right?

“And what are the walls around your base made of? Why can’t anyone break through them?

“How did you get the zombies outside to obey you? And what’s up with those powerful mutant plants…”

Every time Snake Man asked a question, his eyes narrowed with a dangerous glint.

He thought he was practically invincible, with few who could stand against him.

But outside this base, he got his ass handed to him.

He almost got wiped out by zombies and mutant plants.

The kicker was, after all that effort just to reach the base walls, he still couldn’t get in.

Those towering walls weren’t just rock–solid. They were so tough that even cannons couldn’t make a dent. No matter how many times they tried to force their way in, the walls didn’t even budge.

When they tried to climb over, the mutant cacti attacked them, and they almost got killed.

Just as they were about to leave, they saw someone open the gate and walk out.

Snake Man was completely stunned.

With walls as solid as rock, and all those traps, mutant plants, and zombies guarding the outside, he figured the people inside had to be badasses.

But to his shock, most of them were just regular folks. There were only about twenty powered humans, and they were all just rank one or two. He could wipe them out with a flick of his finger.

This base was just too strange.

Snake Man narrowed his eyes, his tone growing more menacing. “Speak.

The man on the ground was shaking so hard he looked like he might fall apart. “Please, I really don’t know anything! All of this was handled by the base chief herself!”

‘Seriously, how would I know? The base’s construction is a total secret. Only the base chief knows about that stuff, not

someone like me!‘ he thought.

Snake Man laughed in fury, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “You don’t know, huh? Fine.”

Suddenly, his lower body morphed into a long snake tail, coiling around the man and dragging him over.

The man cried out in pain.

With a gut–wrenching shriek. He writhed on the ground in agony, desperate for death, but it just wouldn’t come.

He kept screaming, his cries never stopping.

Then, his arms and legs were brutally snapped.

The scent of blood quickly wafted out, and the mutant creatures outside went berserk, slamming themselves against the walls in a blood–crazed frenzy.

In the center of the Botanic Gardens, the mutant ivy that had been quiet for so long suddenly started twitching its vines, creeping in the direction of Blaze Haven.

Not far away, a few cars sped down the road. The big golden dog twitched his nose, and his eyes flew open in an instant.

“Base chief, the air reeks of blood,” the dog said.

At the same time, Emily suddenly let out a curse.

‘Shit! Someone is hijacking our base!”

Mindy exclaimed, “What?”

Emily squinted, reaching out with her spirit–powered senses for another sweep. Her expression darkened.

Emily said, “Some guy mutated into a King Cobra. His venom is crazy lethal, and he’s wiped out half our people already.

Fuck! Are they fucking suicidal or what?” Emily spat.

Then, Emily started cursing up a storm and kicked over the trash can next to her.

What now?” Mindy asked, her voice tight with worry.

Emily was breathing heavily, storming around the RV, her eyes burning with rage, and she looked like she was ready to devour someone alive.

Emily shouted, “That’s just brutal! That damn King Cobra actually tormented them, cutting off their limbs and leaving them

live!

Step on it! If you don’t hurry, everyone at our base will be slaughtered!” she shouted at Frank, who was driving,

There weren’t many people left in Blaze Haven to start with, and now more than half had been slaughtered in one brutal

¡weep.

Frank floored the gas pedal, and the whole car rocketed forward in a blur.

The truck behind couldn’t keep up, and the driver just looked completely baffled.
