Chapter 188: That one slash was absolutely amazing! I'm bowing down and giving it my full suppo
The sound waves spread out, and repulsive ripples appeared at the edges of the cracks in the sky.
"Go back!"
Leng Meng raised the long sword in her hand, pointing it at the enormous eyeball, and made her final declaration:
"Those who violate this rule—"
"cut!"
The last word is both a judgment and an execution order.
The moment the word "slash" was uttered, Leng Meng flicked her wrist, and the long sword swung forward in the same direction.
There were no dazzling flashes of swords, no deafening roars; the movements were as casual as if he were merely brushing dust off his clothes.
But just as the blade sliced through the air, the giant, bloodshot eye's pupil suddenly contracted, and a fine wound appeared out of thin air in the center of the eyeball. Thick, black liquid gushed out like ink, dripping down the curve of the eyeball.
The giant eye let out a silent roar, its pupils trembling violently, now churning not with malice, but with pure fear.
The cracks around it began to contract rapidly from the edges toward the center, and the crackling purple arcs seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, rushing back into the cracks.
The bulging, enormous eyeballs were pushed backward by an irresistible force.
finally--
"Buzz..."
After a deep, muffled thud that seemed to seal the space, the crack disappeared completely.
The sky cleared up and the sunlight shone down again, as if the giant eye that had blotted out the sky and the crack that had torn apart space were just a collective nightmare.
The frozen air instantly "thawed" and resumed its flow.

Studio:
"My dear wife Leng Meng!! This is amazing! I'm totally kneeling down and giving her my full support!"
"So cool!! This is like a knife piercing my heart! Brother Feng, hurry up and marry her!!"
"That 'slash' made me feel like I died and came back to life on the spot! Brother Feng, I support you in following this story, but remember to wear something warm."
"Giant Eye: I was terrified. Brother Feng: I might also... [lights candle]"
"Link sent! Titanium alloy breastplate, vibranium washboard, anti-slash field generator! Brother Feng, don't move an inch if you're not fully equipped!"
........................
Leng Meng landed lightly, and with a flick of her wrist, the long sword slid precisely into its dark scabbard.
Her icy gaze swept across the entire room.
Every prisoner who met her gaze felt as if their soul had been pierced by an ice pick; they lowered their heads in terror, shrank their bodies, and dared not harbor the slightest thought of disobedience.
Meanwhile, on the ground—
Those prison guards who had been held captive by the "void gaze" for so long, standing like stone statues, suddenly trembled, as if drowning people had finally surfaced and were breathing heavily.
Leng Meng turned around and her gaze fell on Lin Feng.
My gaze shifted from the walkie-talkie he was gripping tightly to the dried bloodstains on his baton, finally settling on his pale face—
But those eyes were incredibly bright, staring straight at her.
Inside, a cluster of scorching, undisguised light burned, mixed with lingering shock, pure worship, and a touch of almost instinctive fascination.
It was as if what he had just witnessed was not a battle, but a thunderbolt that cleaved his entire world, and she, wielding the sword, stood in that light.
Leng Meng's heart fluttered slightly, and almost imperceptibly, the corners of her lips twitched upwards.
[Ding! Leng Meng's favorability +5]
Current favorability rating: 95/100
"Well handled. At least you remember how to call for help."
After saying that, she walked towards the two official prison guards in black.
Although the two regained their mobility, they were pale and clearly had suffered a significant mental shock.
"You two!" Leng Meng's voice turned stern. "Dereliction of duty, your bonus for this month is deducted, and you must write a 5-word self-criticism. Now, take the prisoners back to their cells immediately; today's exercise time is over early."
"Yes...yes!" The two hurriedly got up and began to drive the prisoners away.
The prisoners were unusually cooperative, and some even scrambled to leave this horrible place.
At the same time, three figures dressed in all-black protective suits stepped into the exercise area, the leader being the female cleaner wearing a pure white mask and red goggles.
The two teammates behind her stood like silent iron towers.
The female cleaner bowed slightly to Leng Meng, her gaze sweeping across the scene through her red goggles, finally settling on the twelve bodies of trainee prison guards lying in pools of blood.
"Clean up."
A cold voice came from beneath the mask.
Two black-clad cleaners immediately stepped forward and took the sharp cone that gleamed with a dark blue metallic luster from their waists.
"Pfft."
The vertebral body precisely pierced the lower side of the neck of the first corpse.
A deep humming sound arose, and a ghostly blue light flowed rapidly along the flexible tube.
The body began to shrivel and collapse at a visible rate.
In the end, only a complete human skin remained, loosely wrapped inside the police uniform.
The whole process took less than fifteen seconds.
The cleaner lifted the human skin as if shaking off clothes, deftly rolling it up from the feet inwards into a tight roll, and then securing it with a leather belt.
Then they moved on to the next corpse...
After the scavenger team silently left with the twelve rolls of human skin, Leng Meng's gaze swept over the group of trainee prison guards who were slumped on the ground, still in shock.
Finally, her gaze settled steadily on Lin Feng's face, and her voice softened almost imperceptibly:
"Those with serious injuries should go to the medical room first; the rest of you should return to your dormitories to rest. Those who are on duty will resume their duties in half an hour!"
As the order was given, the trainee prison guards helped each other to their feet, their steps unsteady but not daring to linger. When they passed Leng Meng, they all subconsciously lowered their heads, their eyes filled with awe.
Lin Feng and Vassim walked silently down the long corridor until the door to dormitory 107 clicked shut. Only then did a wave of intense fatigue wash over them.
Lin Feng took off his dusty, faintly blood-smelling coat, placed the dried, blackened bloodstains on the table, and then threw himself onto the bed.
The hard bed frame pressed against my back through the thin mattress, but unexpectedly brought a luxurious sense of security.
Just as his consciousness began to fade and he was about to drift into a light sleep—
"Knock knock knock~"
A knock came at the door.
Lin Feng immediately opened his eyes, sat up abruptly, and looked warily towards the door: "Who's there?"
"It's me, Vivian."
Lin Feng got out of bed and opened the door.
Vivian was still wearing her pristine white uniform, but her blonde hair seemed slightly disheveled, and fine beads of sweat glistened on her forehead, indicating that she had rushed over.
She was carrying a silver medical kit.
"Are you alright?" As soon as Vivian saw him, her lake-blue eyes immediately looked him up and down, her concern evident in her words.
"I heard there was an accident in the exercise yard, and many trainee guards died... Are you injured? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
"I'm fine." Lin Feng stepped back to give her space. "I'm just a little tired."
Vivian walked into the dormitory, but her eyes immediately met those of Vassim sitting on the bed.
A hint of unease flashed across her face, and she paused in her steps.
Wasim almost simultaneously jumped to his feet, a knowing smile spreading across his face, and began to speak rapidly:
"Um, well... I need to use the restroom!"
