Chen Ye stared unblinkingly at the two anomalies in the middle of the playground.

One was a massive eye, the other a woman over three meters tall.

His phone remained completely still in his hand—Chen Ye’s hand served as the perfect phone stand as he planned to record every moment of their battle.

A confrontation between anomalies of this level might not occur even once in a decade.

“Captain Chu, who do you think will win this time?”

Chen Ye asked Chu Che in a low voice.

Chu Che shook his head: “I don’t know, but this attack should just be probing. Both Wu Jianshan and the anomaly will likely control the scope of this battle.”

“However, after this, I expect the real war is coming. We need to prepare!”

Chu Che’s expression was extremely serious.

Chen Ye continued filming with his phone, inwardly agreeing with Chu Che’s assessment.

No matter how this fight turned out, the real confrontation was undoubtedly approaching.

It seemed… it was truly time to leave.

The anomalies wouldn’t abandon these hundred-plus people.

As for Wu Jianshan, though Chen Ye didn’t know his exact goals…

From their earlier conversation, this former “good brother” had clearly taken a dark path.

If they didn’t leave, they might really end up being “eaten” by Wu Jianshan, just as the Eight-Limbed Human Face had warned.

Thinking this, Chen Ye felt some of his guilt about what he might have to do in the future dissipate.

The ensuing battle truly opened Chen Ye’s eyes.

The Abyssal Blood Pupil seemed to possess some kind of mental control ability, commanding the school’s numerous Crawlers to charge into battle.

Even survivors from the convoy and some Death God followers were affected.

Their minds remained clear, but their bodies moved against their will.

Fortunately, the Superhumans were less affected and quickly restrained these ordinary survivors.

Countless Crawlers might pose a threat to Chen Ye and the others.

But they couldn’t harm the Death God in the slightest.

Wu Jianshan didn’t lift a finger throughout the fight, merely standing behind the Death God reciting the “Death God Scripture.”

The Death God single-handedly uprooted a basketball hoop from the playground to use as a weapon, sweeping aside countless Crawlers with a casual swing.

Without even moving from her spot, she shattered the incoming tide of Crawlers into disarray.

A sudden thought struck Chen Ye:

The Death God didn’t seem like Wu Jianshan’s deity—she seemed more like his enforcer.

Wu Jianshan established the Death God Church to worship the Death God, and the Death God protected the followers of the Witch God Church.

This Worship God Sequence had some interesting aspects.

Then Chen Ye saw the massive eyeball grow even redder, a wave of scorching heat rushing forth that seemed to ignite the falling snowflakes.

The Death God appeared to sense something, her figure flickering as she dodged away.

But in that instant, the spot where she had been standing suddenly erupted with flames, clusters of intensely hot orange-red fire bursting into existence.

The basketball hoop merely brushed against the flames and instantly melted, red molten iron dripping to the ground and creating massive clouds of steam with the snow.

The ground quickly melted into lava under the orange-red flames.

Even Chen Ye and the others, dozens of meters from the battlefield, felt a wave of intense heat.

Chen Ye recoiled in terror, stumbling backward repeatedly.

Another change occurred on the battlefield.

The Death God discarded the basketball hoop, her hands now holding the blood-red scythe that had appeared from nowhere.

The Blood Pupil looked toward her again.

Another cluster of orange-red flames ignited out of thin air, and a Death God follower who stood too close didn’t even have time to scream before being burned to a handful of black ash in mere seconds.

So powerful!

Chen Ye quickly drove the Apocalyptic Pickup Truck far away, only stopping when they reached the school’s perimeter wall.

Iron Lion and the others did the same.

Even Boss Gao wisely drove the bus away from the center of the battle.

Zhou Xiaoxiao originally intended to do the same.

But as she approached her vehicle, it suddenly burst into flames.

The vehicle that had accompanied the Zhou Sisters for months turned to ash right before Zhou Xiaoxiao’s eyes.

Zhou Xiaoxiao stood frozen in shock.

The battle between the two anomalies continued.

The Abyssal Blood Pupil activated its ability again, and several survivors who couldn’t dodge in time had their eyeballs tear free from their sockets, leaving only screaming survivors behind.

Under the Abyssal Blood Pupil’s control, these eyeballs completely monitored the entire battlefield.

The battlefield became incredibly bloody in an instant.

Just when Chen Ye thought these eyeballs only served as surveillance cameras…

Another change occurred on the battlefield. As the Death God approached these eyeballs, the still-blood-vessel-connected eyeballs began self-destructing one after another.

The explosive shockwaves directly flipped over vehicles that hadn’t been moved away in time.

The playground’s surface instantly became pitted with craters.

Chen Ye and the others watched with pale faces.

Fortunately, it was the Death God facing the Blood Pupil. If it were their group of Superhumans, they’d probably be completely wiped out by now.

Moreover, Chen Ye noticed the Blood Pupil seemed to have activated some ability several times.

But these abilities appeared ineffective against the Death God.

Chen Ye guessed these might be other eye-related abilities of the Blood Eye, but the Death God had kept her eyes closed from beginning to end.

The Blood Pupil even attempted to use some strange ability against Wu Jianshan.

But Wu Jianshan’s eyes were also closed.

The Death God’s close combat abilities were formidable—immense strength, incredible speed, sharp perception, and even brief levitation capability.

Even when those subsidiary eyeballs exploded at close range, they couldn’t harm her.

Her defensive capabilities were clearly extraordinary.

Especially that scythe.

The Blood Eye seemed deeply fearful of that scythe.

Utterly unwilling to confront it directly.

The entire battle lasted over ten minutes.

The Blood Eye seemed to realize it might not be the Death God’s match and was about to flee when…

“Abyssal Blood Pupil, look at me! How do you like my eyes?”

At that moment, Wu Jianshan suddenly shouted loudly.

The Blood Eye instinctively looked toward Wu Jianshan.

And with that single glance…

Wu Jianshan’s eyes had opened, two streams of blood tears slowly dripping from their corners.

These were eyes filled with compassion, like those of gods or buddhas pitying all living beings.

Even from this distance, Chen Ye saw those eyes clearly.

Without any reason, those eyes seemed to open right before Chen Ye’s own.

The tiny bit of kindness remaining in his heart was instantly amplified a hundredfold, a thousandfold.

All the immoral things he’d done in the past now brought him endless guilt upon remembering.

Like not saving Zhou Lan’s sister back then.

If given another chance, Chen Ye would absolutely go back to save her.

Why? Why was he so terrible?

And back in Longevity Village, using that old woman as a human shield!

He truly wasn’t human, he was absolutely despicable!

And…

In that moment, Chen Ye felt he didn’t want to do anything except apologize and repent for all the bad things he’d ever done!

“Captain Chu!”

Without realizing it, Chen Ye was already weeping, regretting everything he’d done in the past.

“Captain Chu, I’ve wronged you! When Wu Jianshan gave me ten bottles of blood tears, I… I lied to you, I only told you about four bottles! I’m truly despicable!”

“And Iron Lion, I always call you stupid, I… you’re not quick-witted, and I still bully you!”

“Xixi, I just lust after your body, I’m a scumbag… I’m rotten, I deserve to die… wuu wuu…”

Chen Ye was already crying uncontrollably, his face full of guilt and repentance.

If this condition occurred on the battlefield, he probably wouldn’t last three seconds.

Unexpectedly, when Captain Chu turned his head, his appearance was even more pitiful—tears streaming freely down his face, snot sliding over his lips, forming long pendulous drops from his chin.

“Ah… it’s okay, Yezi, I’ve wronged you too! I use the Eavesdropping Radio every night to listen to your little secrets, I… I’m truly not human!”

“Ding Dong, I know you’re not good-looking, but I’ve never looked down on you.”

“Xixi, you… I’ve also said behind your back that you look too feminine, definitely nobody would want you. I really shouldn’t have, I’m a scumbag!”

“And that business between you and Chen Ye—I was the one who spread it through the convoy! I’m such a big mouth, I shouldn’t have!”

“And you, Iron Lion… I… I… I shouldn’t have said you have a dog’s brain! I’ve wronged you, and I’ve wronged dogs too! Wuu wuu…”

Compared to the dramatic emotional changes in Chen Ye and Chu Che, the others showed little emotional fluctuation.

Perhaps the others simply hadn’t committed as many wrongdoings.

Like Iron Lion and Ding Dong—when they saw those blood-filled eyes, they only felt terror and strangeness, without any special sensations.

But Sun Xixi’s forehead veins bulged prominently, clearly furious to the extreme.

Ding Dong’s face had turned as black as the bottom of a clay stove burned for ten years.

As for Iron Lion: “Hehe… Chen Ye, Captain, it’s okay! I’m not smart to begin with, don’t cry! I’m fine!”
