The culture of the Fair Convoy, aside from fairness, also includes running away.

Those convoys that were very skilled at fighting all died in battles against Anomalies.

Battles against Anomalies are never one-on-one duels.

Even in the wilderness, if you encounter an Anomaly and can't deal with it quickly,

then the disturbances caused by the fight will soon be detected by other Anomalies, who will rush over.

If the fight lasts long enough, theoretically, you could attract all the Anomalies in the world.

Not to mention right now, who knows how many Anomalies are inside and outside the entire Oasis City.

Although the Fair Convoy never explicitly stated it, everyone clearly understood that the first priority when encountering an Anomaly was, "Run if you can, only fight if you absolutely can't run away."

Even if the Anomaly doesn't seem very strong.

Like those Pseudo-humans they saw earlier.

The anomalous aura on these Pseudo-humans couldn't even compare to the "Tangled Crowd."

Their only advantages were that their terror factor was on par with the "Tangled" crowd, and that they were numerous.

What was even more daunting was that these guys were "rule-based Anomalies."

Even though they had over nine Superhumans on their side,

Chen Ye and Chu Che's first reaction was still to run.

Lin Qingge's face showed no particular emotion; this woman seemed to approve of Chen Ye and the others' choice.

Auntie Zhao also nervously followed close to Chu Che.

In contrast, the rebellious teenager with the Mohawk was very disdainful.

His expression seemed to say, "You guys are such cowards!"

Perhaps the young man had only recently become a Superhuman, or maybe he was just too young.

When he was an ordinary person before, running from Anomalies was fine, not shameful.

After all, the gap between Anomalies and ordinary people was just too vast.

But now, as a Superhuman, he was still running.

It was practically a disgrace to Superhumans.

That's what the young man thought in his heart.

As for Little Bug, the Insect Breeder, he didn't say a word the entire time, just as his auntie said, the kid was a bit socially awkward.

Unfortunately...

Things took another unexpected turn.

The Superhumans' footsteps gradually came to a halt.

A strange atmosphere began to permeate the air.

At this moment, the "Fair Convoy" and the "Happy Family Convoy" were in an alley.

Somehow, the front and back of the alley had become packed with people.

Dense, countless numbers of them.

Not only that, but the rooftops on both sides of the alley were also crowded with silhouettes.

Even the windows of the houses lining the alley were crammed full of heads.

Chen Ye's pupils instantly contracted.

Among the crowd ahead, he saw a familiar figure.

It was a pretty, round-faced girl.

The girl's face was somewhat pale, but her expression was strange.

That stiff face seemed to be smiling, smiling at Chen Ye.

Like an old friend you haven't seen in a long time.

Not only that, Chen Ye even saw some other familiar figures beside the girl.

Those people were ordinary survivors from their convoy.

Not only did Chen Ye see them, but Chu Che and Sun Qianqian also saw them.

Even the few Superhumans from the "Happy Family" convoy saw familiar figures among them.

Everyone's expressions turned rather grim.

"1, 2, 3..."

A low counting voice sounded in the narrow, silent street.

"9, hehe... wonderful, nine Superhumans!"

"Superhumans are much better than this trash. That big guy is mine, don't anyone dare fight me for him!"

The one in front, a guy with a creepy smile, pointed at Iron Lion.

The girl with the cute round face looked at Chen Ye, her lips moving: "I want this one..."

Chen Ye sighed.

He really didn't want to fight these Anomalies in Oasis City.

If possible, he didn't even want to fight at all.

After all, fighting meant the possibility of death.

But if it couldn't be avoided, that was another story.

Chen Ye reached into his chest and pulled out a Huazi cigarette.

"Fsss..."

The orange-red flame of the lighter illuminated half of Chen Ye's face and that blood-red eye.

"Hss... Puff..."

Smoke Breath exhaled.

"Captain Chu, since there's no other way, let's fight. It was going to happen sooner or later anyway!"

A helpless expression also appeared on Chu Che's face.

"Now this makes our actions just now seem a bit stupid!"

"Hahaha... Not really. Look, that Beastman Sequence guy who flew up earlier is probably torn to pieces, bones and all, by now."

"Even if we die now, at least we can say we lived a few minutes longer!"

"Makes sense!"

Chen Ye and Chu Che went back and forth in question and answer.

An impatient voice beside them cursed: "You two, stop posturing and get moving! I've been itching to take these things down!"

"Dark God, grant me power!"

The Mohawk-wearing chuunibyou teenager roared, brandishing his baseball bat and charging forward.

Black flames burned on the baseball bat.

The Insect Breeder emitted strange insect chirps from his mouth, and swarms of insect clouds instantly flew out from under his black robe.

Even the face hidden beneath the black robe, its features unclear, extended countless thin, long threadworms. One end of the worms connected to the darkness under the robe, the other end opening their mouths to hiss at the Anomalies.

Sun Xixi held the Fire Dragon Sword, her gaze as sharp as ever.

Mad Lion had already awakened, grinning ferociously at the "Pseudo-human" that had pointed at him earlier.

Chen Ye gripped the hilt of Hatred, a faint trace of bloody aura rising from his body. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

The crimson moonlight quietly gathered around him.

Was the Blood Moon Lord really about to be exposed?
