I'll kill you after I finish this game!

Eugen had her own perspective on what she had seen and heard here. A hint of sarcasm crossed her beautiful, fair face as she glanced at the distant monolith and chuckled softly.

"They were like livestock kept in a fenced enclosure."

Yes, that's right. In Eugen's eyes, everyone around him, and even in this city, lived like livestock.

The pedestrians all around looked like zombies, giving off a lifeless, puppet-like feeling.

"He only got what he deserved."

The company showed no pity or compassion for anyone around them. How did they even come up with that virus?

Did we come into being without any reason? Weren't we created by some reckless fools? Now, all of humanity must be punished for the mistakes we have made.

Unfortunately, most of the humans in this world are just a bunch of cowardly scum, and the rulers are either ambitious or incompetent.

"Hey, hurry up and get over there, the event has started again."

"Let's go, let's go, I want to participate too."

Lei Zhe and his group originally planned to take down the city's supreme ruler after observing the city's situation, but just as they made the plan, he and Xiao You frowned at the same time.

Seeing the few people in front of them who had been lifeless suddenly squeezing excitedly into the alley ahead, Lei Zhe and his group's expressions turned cold at the same time.

Their keen ears picked up an unusually pitiful wail, as if they could also hear the crying of an infant.

Lei Zhe gave the ship girls around him a look, then pulled Xiao You along and followed.

Soon, Rei Zhe and his group followed a group of excited-looking guys to a small alley.

In the dark and secluded alleyway in front of them, a large group of men and women of varying ages were crowded together.

Loud laughter, angry shouts, and jeering from a large crowd could be heard from ahead.

"Didn't you eat? How could you miss such a big target?!"

"That's shameful. If you can't do it, let me do it. Watch me smash her eyes in!"

"Tsk, give me another throwing knife containing holmium. This time I'm sure I can hit the jackpot on the first try!"

The strange noises coming from the front of the crowd, along with the sounds of flesh tearing, the ripping of heavy objects or blunt instruments, and most noticeably to Razer, the crying of a baby.

"Hey, you guys look pretty clean. Want to spend some money and have a game? Hit the target and you'll win a prize, kill the target and you'll win the grand prize!"

The man who said this was a white-collar worker in his thirties, wearing a suit and tie, who had just walked out of the crowd with a cheerful smile.

Upon seeing Lei Zhe and his group of handsome men and beautiful women, he focused on the women and greeted them warmly.

As he spoke, he ignored the coldness in the eyes of the company and Eugen, his face showing a hideous venting, revenge and sadistic pleasure.

Lei Zhe ignored the guy expressionlessly, silently pulled Xiao You, whose eyes were gradually getting angry, behind him, and began to interfere with the material world with his mental power as if it were materialized.

"......"

The noisy crowd in front of them suddenly froze, their faces blank and their eyes vacant.

"Woooo..."

"Wow..."

"Uh..."

Without the noise and commotion of the surrounding crowd, Lei Zhe could hear the sounds he wanted to hear very clearly.

The faint cries of infants, the agonizing sobs, and the most frequent wails of grief.

As soon as Lei Zhe had this thought, everyone around him, like puppets on strings, took a step back and made way for him.

This also meant that the scene inside was fully revealed to Lei Zhe and the others.

Before my eyes, ten little girls who looked to be six or seven years old were barely breathing. Their small, thin bodies were tightly chained around their limbs and necks.

The hands and feet, bound by chains, showed signs of breakage, twisting, and shattering.

Their once tender and lovely faces were covered with countless hideous wounds, their pink cheeks were cut open, and blood gushed out as if it were free.

Three little girls had their bright and beautiful eyes pierced crookedly by two small throwing knives or sharp darts.

The ground around them was littered with blood-stained projectiles: knives, darts, small shot puts, stones, and all sorts of other random objects.

Moreover, at the very bottom of the innermost part, close to the wall, there were five baby girls who couldn't even walk and could only crawl on all fours. They had also been hit by heavy objects, and three of them lay on the ground with bloodied heads, whimpering softly and barely breathing.

The remaining two baby girls, one with a fractured forearm and the other covered in bruises from being hit by a blunt object, were sobbing in the corner.

The baby girl was not chained up. To find out why, look at the two men, one fat and one thin, standing on the edge of the wall.

The fat man was carrying a toolbox, which was neatly filled with various tools, all of which had been lying on the ground in the alley.

The contents of the box were clearly priced; the price varied depending on the type of projectile used, and the purpose of these miscellaneous projectiles was self-evident given the situation.

A small sign on the ground read, "First Prize for a Killing Shot: Two Million Yen; Second Prize for Crippling..."

All the little girls who could move were chained up, but the baby girl who won the grand prize was not chained up; it all depended on her accuracy and luck.

"...The feeling is definitely different when the commander tells you and when you see it with your own eyes..."

The woman reached out and pulled her military cap down as low as possible. Beneath the cap and her snow-white hair, her sharp eyes gleamed with a ferocious golden light, and the veins on her delicate hand gripping the cap were bulging.

An uncontrollable rage and murderous intent were brewing and swelling in his heart.

If the world were all like this, she would wholeheartedly approve of the commander's plan to destroy the world.

Eugen and Roon, the two Ironblood ship girls, remained silent, glancing coldly at the people around them.

Even though their overall style is very military-inspired, they are still girls and have a kind heart.

Ron and Eugen are both the kind of older sisters who love and pamper children, and many young ship girls in the port like them very much.

They felt no pity whatsoever for the horrific state of the world.

Without a doubt, just thinking about those expressions and the jeering and celebratory tone is truly disgusting.

Just now, they all had ugly smiles on their faces, and their eyes were filled with a completely twisted and morbid look.

Violence against children, and malice towards infant girls who are unable to speak or walk normally.

Even the kindest Xiaoyou, upon witnessing this scene, felt a silent rage in her eyes.

Her pink lips parted slightly, as if suppressing something...

This inhumane act enraged those present who still possessed conscience and kindness.

"Well, the death of a group of guys like this is a way of purifying the air, isn't it?"

Without looking at Xiaoyou's face, he knew that the girl must be very angry because of her kindness. After saying it jokingly, golden spatial ripples immediately spread across the walls and ground of the alley.

Countless golden skeletal hands gripped everyone in the alley, dragging them forcefully into hell.

Everything they have done will be repaid a hundredfold or a thousandfold in the hell that Rezer has built.

As the portal to the Golden Demon Realm slowly closed, they heard a series of agonizing screams rising and falling from within.

However, no one paid any attention to those scumbags, and Xiaoyou had no pity for them whatsoever.

He walked up to the group of children who were bound by chains and removed all the chains from their bodies.

Xiaoyou and the others from the company brought the babies over and began treating their injuries.

Fortunately, the cursed child has superhuman vitality; it's a miracle he's alive given the horrific and gruesome injuries he's suffered.

Lei Zhe temporarily numbed their pain receptors, and silently looked into their lifeless eyes, asking:

"...Do you still want to live?"

Lei Zhe wanted to save them, but these girls exuded a strong desire to die.

Their pure souls seemed to darken in Lei Zhe's eyes.

"Uh......"

"Ugh...please...please...kill...kill me..."

"...Want...to...die...please..."

"...die..."

As expected, just as Rezhe had thought, the children, who had been despised, discriminated against, and abused since birth, and were now suffering such inhuman torment, just wanted to leave this terrible world as soon as possible.

Except for those who were too weak to speak, each of them conveyed their humble and insignificant prayers to Rei Zhe.

Xiaoyou and the other women, carrying the baby, came up behind Lei Zhe, their expressions showing reluctance and grief.

Eugen and Ron looked at Rezel, who remained silent, and hesitated to speak. They could clearly sense the commander's complex and contradictory inner world on the mental network.

I wanted to save them, but these children had lost all will to live. Their minds were completely broken; even if they were saved, they would just be walking corpses.

Having lost the will to live, Xiaoyou looked at these pitiful and miserable children and felt extremely distressed. Xiaoyou, whose heart was heavy, really wanted to save them.

But looking into the eyes of these children reminded her of the Night King.

Some people are alive, but they are worse off than dead.

"...Is that so? I have indeed received your wishes, and I respect your wishes."

After a moment of silence, Reiji's eyes, filled with a complex mix of inner conflict and compassion, shone with a holy golden light of destruction, as he accepted the children's desire to die.

A sacred and radiant supreme radiance shone on Razor's wispy hair, a holy gold color that shone brighter and warmer than gold and the sun, spreading across Razor's waist-length hair.

He didn't mind the blood and stench on the child in front of him. He took the small and thin child into his arms and looked at the child with a dignified and solemn light in his deep eyes, as well as a sacred and loving emotion.

"...Have you never been loved? Then I will 'love' you. Your painful lives will end with your deaths now. I will destroy your grief."

Holding the tiny life tightly in his arms, amidst the astonished gazes of Xiaoyou and Qiye beside him, the little girl in Lei Zhe's arms, as fragile as porcelain, rapidly developed golden cracks all over her body.

Because of love, destruction is necessary; death is not the end, but merely a point in time.

Even though her entire body was on the verge of collapse, there was no pain in the girl's only remaining eye. Instead, her lifeless pupils became bright and lively because of the warmth in Lei Zhe's arms.

tick-

Tears streamed down her face, and although her body was collapsing rapidly, she felt an unparalleled sense of happiness.

Her soul could clearly hear the gentle whispers, as if a lullaby was being sung to her.

I love everything, and therefore I will love you too. Let me bestow upon you my highest blessings.

Please find happiness, please cheer up. No matter how sad you are, I will always embrace you.

No matter how unreasonable or painful your life may be, you will eventually find happiness.
