All the women in the apocalypse are mine

Hearing Li Duo's heartfelt words, Mu Rou, who had been expressionless, narrowed her eyes slightly.

"So for me... Sister Mu Rou living is more important than anything else."

Li Duo seemed to want to explain something in order to salvage her image in Mu Rou's eyes.

"It's all... just because of your possessiveness."

Mu Rou suddenly spoke up.

Her gaze toward Li Duo was utterly indifferent, mercilessly revealing the scars she was trying to conceal.

"No...that's not how it is..."

Li Duo's voice also instantly became shrill.

But faced with her feeble explanation, Mu Rou had already closed her eyes.

"Hey! You woman, keep your voice down!"

On the quiet street, Li Duo's voice came out abruptly, and Tie Xi stared at her with wide eyes.

It was quite obvious that the three members of the Evil God Cult did not look as relaxed and carefree as they had when they arrived. They surrounded all the children, remaining vigilant for any possible void creatures.

It seems... while they themselves can avoid attacks from void creatures, they cannot give their children the same ability.

At the same time, they also have to maintain 100% concentration while looking after nearly thirty children.

Hearing Tie Xi's reprimand, Li Duo immediately fell silent. She lowered her head slightly, the shadow of her hair obscuring her face.

Li Duo glanced at the little girls around her out of the corner of her eye, and a hint of resentment rose in her heart.

It's all because of these guys... they took away all of Mu Rou's tenderness towards her...

What a bunch of... damn bastards!

...

"Starfall...their behavior seems a bit strange..."

Saber suddenly whispered.

It's quite surprising that these evil guys would be so dedicated to protecting children.

"Oh? I think that's quite normal." Ye Xinglu sighed softly. "After all... that's a rare commodity."

"Rare item?"

Sasha poked her little head out from behind Ye Xingluo and asked in confusion.

"Does Sasha prefer spoiled milk or freshly produced milk?" Ye Xinglu asked, stroking Sasha's head. "It's definitely fresh milk, right? It's the same with void creatures; compared to adults, children are obviously more tender and delicious."

“Starfall, so according to you…” A chill ran down Saber’s spine. “These people wouldn’t be… going to… take those children…”

“Yes, it sounds extremely ironic, doesn’t it?” Night Starfall said softly. “Humans are offering fresh, live sacrifices to the Void creatures according to their tastes...isn’t that much more convenient than the Void creatures themselves slaughtering and searching for them?”

"Big sister...are those monsters going to eat us all?" Sasha's little face showed obvious fear and worry. "Big sister, you must save us!"

Ye Xinglu nodded gently, but thought to herself in a low voice.

What were those vile void creatures that devoured those children...?

Or perhaps it's humanity itself?

...

After an unknown amount of time, the three Iron Rhino members, laden with rich spoils, arrived at a solemn and majestic church.

The gatekeeper, dressed in a black robe, stood like a statue in front of the church's iron gate. Only when Tie Xi came in front of them did he mechanically raise his head. After scrutinizing Tie Xi for a while with his dark eyes, he slowly opened the church door.

"Hey, why are you only just getting back!" Just as Iron Rhino went inside, a short, ugly mole with brown skin crawled out from a dark corner. "His Holiness the Bishop is about to get angry!"

"You've run into some trouble, but you, Mole... weren't you paralyzed before? Now you're jumping around like a madman?"

"Of course I have to thank the great evil god, otherwise I would probably be bedridden for half a month." The mole said with lingering fear, "Who knew that the guy we met by chance on the way would be so troublesome. I'm lucky, Scorpion is still not awake."

"What are you all dawdling about? Bring the child here right now!"

Suddenly, an extremely eerie voice echoed from inside the church.

The incredibly powerful Iron Rhino was instantly jolted awake and hurriedly led a group of bewildered children into the church.

The cultists faced the red-clad figure with his back to them, and humbly lowered their heads.

The eerie silence that followed left the kindergarten children and teachers somewhat bewildered, staring blankly at the red-clad figure slowly turning around in front of them.

They couldn't fathom why these strange people had brought them here from kindergarten...

"What...what exactly do you want us to do?"

Having recovered somewhat thanks to the natural spirit's healing power, Mu Rou took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Of course, it's to atone for your sins...you heinous criminals."

Beneath the red hood, the man addressed as the bishop revealed a sickly pale complexion.

"What exactly does 'atonement' mean?"

Having heard similar words from these people countless times, Mu Rou asked with great unease.

"You'll find out soon enough," the cardinal said meaningfully. "Leave the lovely children here, and the rest of the women...take them to the confessional."

Confession room...

Mu Rou glanced at the cultists of the evil god who had suddenly started to smirk.

A sudden sense of foreboding welled up inside me.

...

Chapter 203 Hell of Repentance

In cults, children are considered unlucky.

All the children had to be offered as living sacrifices to the so-called evil god.

Women who bear children are also condemned as having the same sins in cults.

However, unlike children who have committed heinous crimes, women can be purified and baptized by evil gods through sincere repentance.

Thus, they shed their superficiality and become true followers of evil gods.

The method of purification involves becoming pregnant repeatedly and then personally offering the child to the evil god.

In that case... the evil god will reward the purified woman and grant her unique abilities.

This is aimed at women and children, but for adult men... what they need to do is get more people to join the evil god cult, or find surviving children outside, in order to gain the approval of the evil god and obtain the powerful abilities granted by the evil god.

The reason why the so-called evil god needs so many children is to cultivate his own servants in the human world to offer fresh children to him.

"This... is the evil god cult I know of." Hidden in a secluded corner, Ye Xinglu looked at the church not far away and said in a deep voice, "So it's not just children... women in the evil god cult will also suffer a tragic fate, becoming breeding machines to provide food for the so-called evil god."

“How…can there be such an evil organization?” Saber said solemnly. “This inhuman place must not be allowed to poison more people!”

"So we need to hurry... before the children get eaten."

Ye Xinglu looked at the church, which exuded a strange and evil aura in the night, and said.

However, just as he was preparing to storm in, he suddenly noticed the towering shadow behind the church.

When did this little hill appear here?

Ye Xinglu, who was fairly familiar with this area, suddenly felt a sense of doubt.

...

Mu Rou bit her lower lip hard as she watched the children disappear into the darkness with the strange bishop.

She no longer had the strength to stand and could only watch helplessly as the children, their eyes filled with fear and reluctance, disappeared from her sight.

The children were very well-behaved and didn't cry or make a fuss. They seemed to realize that crying wouldn't solve anything and might only cause more injuries to their beloved older sister, Mu Rou.

Then, under the eerie gaze of the cultists, they could only let these people drive them to the so-called confessional.

It seemed that since they had entered the territory of the evil god cult, the evil god cult members were not as strict with them as before. These people huddled behind them, their eyes brazenly scanning the kindergarten teachers, and they let out bursts of strange laughter.

"Xiaomei, thank you."

Suddenly, Mu Rou cautiously spoke to Xiao Mei beside her.

As the kindergarten principal, having spent so much time with the children, she immediately noticed that one child had escaped the clutches of these guys.

"That's all I can do."

Xiaomei gave a helpless, bitter smile, her eyes filled with apology.

"No, you've done very well."

Mu Rou gently shook her head and said.

Under these circumstances, saving any one of the children would bring her immense comfort.

What exactly are these guys, who call themselves a cult of evil gods, going to do to those children?

Despite her burning desire to rescue the children from these people, Mu Rou knew that she was the children's last hope, and acting impulsively would only plunge them into the abyss of despair.

All she has to do now is endure and look for an opportunity to save the children.

Just as Mu Rou was lost in thought, the confessional that the cardinal had mentioned appeared before them, and the intermittent sounds coming from inside gave Mu Rou a sudden and extremely ominous premonition.

"Women who are the source of sin, now... is the time for them to atone to the evil god."

Suddenly, the door to the confessional was pushed open.

The women standing at the door stared wide-eyed, their eyes wide with disbelief.

"Oh? A new person has arrived today!"

"Perfect, I've been tired of these women for a long time."

"Can we finally change things up?"

...

Inside the confessional, the men, their eyes gleaming with a green light, all turned their gaze toward the doorway.
