"Peter???"

Gwen's eyes widened suddenly, her tired, blood-stained face beneath the mask filled with confusion and shock.

Although the person's appearance, build, and voice were completely different from the scrawny, timid Peter Parker she remembered,

considering that he could directly say her real name and his familiar way of speaking, Gwen could still roughly deduce his true identity.

After all, before this, she had only revealed her Spider-Woman identity to Peter Parker.

But what she couldn't understand was how Peter Parker suddenly turned into this monstrous… ah, no, into a big lizard?

Most, most, most importantly, she actually saw the incredibly familiar khorne rune on his forehead?

However, that symbol was currently in an "unactivated" state.

It seemed it hadn't officially received the Blood God's blessing yet.

No way?

No way?

Could Peter be the helper the Blood God My Lord specially arranged for me?

(^^●)

So… so thoughtful!

"That's right, it's me… this time, it's finally my turn to save you."

Lizard Peter, who was unaware that he had become a mere background character, clearly had a hint of nervousness and an uncontrollable smugness in his voice.

As if guessing the questions in Gwen's mind, he spoke proactively before she could ask, "I know you must be wondering why I suddenly turned into this monstrous… uh, I mean, a lizard."

"But this matter is probably hard to explain in a few words. After I deal with… uh, I mean, after I successfully stop these guys' evil deeds, I will tell you the full story."

"Thank you, Peter."

Gwen naturally knew that now was not the time to discuss these matters. She then raised her Hand and pointed to Sheriff Frank and the soldiers fighting hard behind her, saying,

"If possible, I hope you can work with Sheriff Frank and those soldiers to hold back these Hand guys as much as possible."

"What about you?"

Lizard Peter seemed to guess something and asked back with concern, "You're not thinking of taking on those powerful guys by yourself, are you?"

"That's right." Gwen immediately looked in the direction of the Shou and said with unwavering determination, "The source of this riot all comes from that demon. Only by dealing with him can this riot end…"

"I understand."

Lizard Peter followed Gwen's gaze and glanced over there. He immediately grinned, revealing fangs full of sharp, massive teeth, and said confidently,

"Gwen, I've thought of a good way to send you directly over."

Then he took a sudden step forward, leaning his upper body slightly back, while his right Hand stretched straight back like a drawn bow. "Gwen, now's the time, jump onto my Hand."

Gwen, also a top student, immediately understood that he wanted to use his strength to throw her directly over. So, she lightly leaped onto Lizard Peter's large Hand.

The next second.

Lizard Peter used all his strength, his arm like a bowstring, fiercely throwing Gwen in the direction of the Shou.

"Eh? You can even play like this?"

Madame Gao and the other two The Five Fingers were instantly dumbfounded at the sight.

You bookworms sure know how to have fun!

"Little Spider, you're not going anywhere."

Madame Gao was the first to react. She then manipulated her black mist ghost claws, intending to intercept Gwen in mid-air.

But at this moment, Lizard Peter on the opposite side had already charged towards her like a heavily armored tank. "As long as I'm here, no one can hinder Gwen… uh, I mean Spider-Woman!"

Along the way, The Hand ninjas who surrounded him were all sent flying backward from the impact.

And the weapons in their Hands, striking Lizard Peter's thick, steel-like scales, only sparked, causing no effective damage whatsoever.

"Damn it."

Seeing this, Madame Gao quickly changed direction, manipulating her black mist ghost claws, and clawed towards Lizard Peter.

"Pete… Mr. Lizard, be careful, that mist can drain people's life force!"

In mid-air, Gwen, while flying forward, didn't forget to warn him.

But it was too late.

The black mist ghost claws had already grasped Lizard Peter's arm that was swinging down towards Madame Gao.

In the blink of an eye, the originally bucket-thick "Kirin arm" was directly drained into an arm circumference of normal human size.

"Don't worry, her ability is useless against me."

Lizard Peter showed a confident expression on his face. Then, he actually used his other arm to forcibly tear off the arm that was being drained from his shoulder.

Dark green blood gushed from the wound.

However, a brand new arm quickly regrew from the wound at a visible speed.

Bang—

Lizard Peter used his thick tail to send the dumbfounded Madame Gao flying far away.

"WTF? What the Hell is this thing?"

Botou was instantly shocked and quickly manipulated the black blade in his Hand, piercing through Lizard Peter's chest.

However.

Such an attack might be fatal to an agile "assassin" like Gwen.

But for a "tank" with high defense and health, it was just a tickle.

Lizard Peter casually grabbed two Hand ninjas and used them as "human sandbags" to smash Botou head over heels.

If Sowande, who was also strong, hadn't returned to the battlefield in time to successfully block his advance, Botou's head would probably have been crushed on the spot.

"Damn ugly lizard, you came to the wrong place today!"

Lizard Peter, who was not very good at fighting, was quickly held tightly by Sowande's large Hand, and the two immediately entered a tug-of-war.

But the reason Old Mo did this was not to show off his strength, but to create an opportunity for his companions to ambush.

Madame Gao and Botou, two old schemers, understood tacitly and seized the opportunity to strike without any martial ethics.

Puff puff—

The black mist ghost claws, carrying gusts of sinister wind, directly enveloped Lizard Peter's head, while a black blade pierced straight through his back.

Clearly, even with strength far beyond ordinary people, such a high-level battle was still a bit too early for Peter Parker, who had no real combat experience…

Feeling the rapid loss of life force within him, Lizard Peter remained extraordinarily calm. He began to call out to the deity who had previously saved him.

"Oh God, please help me, lend me more power!!"

Khorne's deep and powerful voice immediately rang out.

"Peter, if you want power, then shout out My name loudly!"

Peter Parker felt an exceptionally powerful force, poised within his body, ready to erupt.

But at this moment, he seemed to need a key to open the "door of power."

Without any prompts, in the spiritual realm, eight large characters appeared in Peter Parker's mind.

So, he shouted them out without thinking.

"Blood for the Blood God, Skulls for the Brass Throne!!!"

"The contract is officially concluded!"

"Very good, Peter, go and enjoy the pleasure brought by battle and slaughter… Kill all those who dare to underestimate you!!!"

Boom—

A terrifying power, so strong it made Peter Parker's soul tremble, instantly filled his entire body.

From a perspective imperceptible to the naked eye, he was now completely enveloped in a crimson glow.

And the "sacred" khorne rune on his forehead was completely activated!

The black mist ghost claws, which had been continuously draining his life force, were directly dispelled by the light bursting from the khorne rune.

Even the black blade piercing his chest vanished.

What kind of audacity, daring to drain My Khorne's chosen?

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what the Hell, this guy's power actually… increased?!"

Sowande felt the tons of power increasing in his arm, and the relaxed expression on his face instantly froze.

But before he could react, his wrist was directly broken with two crisp snaps.

Lizard Peter then grabbed Sowande's legs, lifted him upside down into the air amidst a heart-wrenching scream, and then, under the horrified gaze of Madame Gao and Botou, violently pulled outwards.

Puff—

Blood splattered.

Organs gushed out.

Sowande was instantly like a shredded chicken, torn from a whole "Mo" into "black" and "dog."

Botou, terrified by the sight, turned and ran.

But the next second, he was wrapped around by Lizard Peter's thick tail, and then his head was smashed to pieces with a single claw.

"Huh? Where's that old geezer?"

However, when Lizard Peter turned to look for Madame Gao, he found that she had long disappeared, which made him annoyed.

First time in a battle, and he missed a kill?

A major blunder!

So he had no choice but to vent his anger on the other Hand ninjas.

For a time, Lizard Peter rampaged through the battlefield like a prehistoric beast.

And the situation on the battlefield was reversed by his intrusion.

No matter how ferocious the rioters, contaminated by "Chaotic Malice," they were scared and scurried away, clutching their heads.

Sheriff Frank and the National Guard members, who had almost been annihilated, breathed a long sigh of relief.

It seemed this big lizard was on their side!

Meanwhile.

Gwen's figure had already flown over the heavy blockade of the encirclement, and just before landing, she shot a crimson web from her wrist, then used the swinging momentum to deliver a flying kick towards the Shou's head.

"You bastard demon, it's time to settle the old scores for those children who became sacrifices… Earth doesn't welcome guys like you, go back to where you belong!!"

"Hehehehe…"

The Shou dodged the attack, but didn't rush to strike. Instead, he taunted with a playful expression, "It seems I'm really lucky today, encountering two anomalies at once!"

"But as a demon agent, aren't your Hands also stained with human blood? How dare you speak ill of me?"

Gwen immediately retorted stubbornly, "I only kill those who are utterly evil and deserve to die!"

Then she gracefully flipped down, moving at high speed, and shot several webs from her wrists, firmly fixing the Shou's legs in place.

"Tsk tsk tsk, little bug, don't you think that statement itself is very evil?"

Flames burned fiercely on the Shou's legs, instantly incinerating the webs. He glanced around the chaotic battlefield, grinning wantonly,

"Only you humans distinguish between good and evil. For us demons… all humans deserve to die!"

"…"

Gwen was momentarily speechless.

It seemed he wasn't entirely wrong.

Isn't it the same principle as cats loving fish, dogs loving meat, and Ultraman loving to fight monsters?

But how could a rebellious teenager easily back down?

Hmph, if logic doesn't work, then just abandon logic altogether.

"Blood for the Blood God, Skulls for the Brass Throne!!!"

The khorne rune on Gwen's forehead immediately glowed brightly, and immense power filled her entire body.

The Shou on the opposite side saw this and showed a look of disdain. "Heh heh, if it's only this level of power blessing, it won't cause Me any harm at all."

As his voice rang out, his figure transformed into a shadow, silently appearing in front of Gwen, a dozen meters away, then he grabbed her by the neck.

"Today, I'll use you to test the power of the Eye of Judgment."

"If you are truly as righteous as you claim, then you will not be harmed… But if not, you will be judged to death, and your soul will be obliterated into Hell."

Whoosh—

The Shou transformed back into his "evil spirit form," his head becoming a skull burning with Hellfire, and then from his abyss-like black eye sockets, two rotating flames shot out, directly entering Gwen's eyes.

"Ah… huh???"

Gwen subconsciously let out a scream, thinking she would be burned to ashes like Murakami.

After all, in the time since her father was killed, the criminals who had died by her Hand were simply too numerous.

But very quickly, she realized, it seemed… it didn't hurt at all???

Hmm, the Eye of Judgment?

That's it?

"???"

The Shou was also completely bewildered at this moment.

No, how could this be so absurd?

This little Spider-Woman clearly killed so many people, yet she had no sin whatsoever?

Could it really be as she just said, that those she killed were all heinous criminals?

So she could be exempt from the Eye of Judgment's retribution?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Damn it, did I steal a fake Revenge Spirit?

Perhaps the Shou didn't know that while the Eye of Judgment could use Hellfire to directly strike human souls, burning away all the sins committed by the person it gazed upon until their soul completely fell into Hell,

it had a fatal bug!

That is, when the person it gazed upon subjectively believed that what they did was completely righteous and felt no guilt in their heart, the Eye of Judgment would not be effective against them.

The Punisher from the original work was the best example.

And Gwen's subjective consciousness, under the influence of Khorne, had long become incredibly firm, believing that violence for violence was the true Justice.

So… I didn't do anything wrong, what are you judging, d-e-r-p?

"Hmph, mere human, I can't deal with you now?"

The Shou immediately flew into a rage. Since the Revenge Spirit's power wasn't working, he would just use his inherent power.

Immediately, the Shou returned to human form, and strange lights flickered in his eyes.

The moment Gwen's gaze met his, a beast-like demon immediately appeared in her mind, towering a hundred meters tall, with a raven's head, a wolf's body, a snake-like tail, green skin all over, and pointed canine teeth protruding from its mouth.

This was clearly the Shou's true form.

"Ah, you bastard, get out of my head…"

This time, Gwen clutched her head, letting out a painful scream.

However, the next instant, the khorne rune on her forehead erupted with extremely terrifying fluctuations, instantly dispelling the stinging sensation.

At the same time.

In Gwen's consciousness, before the Shou could even steady himself, the scene before his eyes suddenly shifted, and he appeared in a World filled with blood and corpses.

Here were hot, boiling rivers of blood, volcanoes spewing souls, blood-stained ruins, a sky without day or night, an endless expanse of skulls and corpses, and a dragon soul hanging upside down on a flagpole, beaten half to death???

The Shou: "Well, it seems I've been sent directly back to Hell?"

And at the center of this World, an incredibly massive Brass Throne stood.

The base of the throne was piled high with countless corpses and skulls.

At this moment, on the throne, a colossal figure with a dog's head, a human body, and wearing red heavy armor, was looking down at the Shou from above.
