"Do these believers know what they are eating?" Zhou Ning asked Yang Songbai weakly while sitting on the ground leaning against the bed.

"They serve their gods wholeheartedly. They even take good care of the sons of gods who may become substitute gods. They are even willing to sacrifice their lives. Such devout believers are all voluntary. So what do they want? How do they want their gods to help them?"

Lian Ma Tian looked at Yang Songbai in surprise, "Don't look at me with that stupid look, this world has an extremely dark side. The high gods can drive their believers at will and become the masters of everything. But the premise of all this is that the gods can satisfy the prayers of these believers, health, fame, wealth and everything else. The gods and believers here are actually in a relationship of sucking blood from each other. And you sons of gods who are not even substitute gods, you can't give anything to others but you can enjoy the top offerings from the believers. Don't you ask why? When you fail in the competition for substitute gods, it will be time to pay the price. The flesh with stars is closest to the gods in their hearts, which is the best reward."

Even Zhou Xin, who had never understood what was going on, understood it. She covered her mouth, unable to believe that what they said was actually true. Looking at Zhou Ning, who had been vomiting and nausea, she instantly understood why she suddenly became like this.

"It's so fucking disgusting. Life outside is so miserable, but I've never seen anything like this." Ma Tian suddenly missed Lin Ziqiang. If he were here, he could ask him for a cigarette and then tell him about this disgusting thing. Ma Tian grew up in Water Street and thought he had seen enough dirty things, but the current situation was still hard for him to digest.

"How do you know there isn't one... Never mind. Now let's think about how to become a substitute god. At least I can't become a dish in the end!" Yang Songbai continued to eat with a grunt, not caring about Zhou Ning's discomfort.

"The ceremony is over, and Benjamin didn't say how to compete. Did he forget?" Zhou Ning saw that Yang Songbai was eating so deliciously. Although she still felt nauseous, she was really hungry after vomiting all night. She picked up an apple and forced herself to eat it. Yang Songbai was no longer a thing, but the last sentence was right. She came here with so much hardship, not to become a god's meal. She had to be strong and adapt to the current situation.

When Zhou Ning thought about this, he picked up other food besides meat, and forced himself to eat it while feeling nauseous and vomiting.

"I used to feel quite pitiful about myself, being picked and chosen by others and having no say in anything. So I envied the servants of God here, and even more so those who could become sons of God. Now it seems that everyone is the same in this ghost place, and there is nothing to envy." Even Zhou Xin couldn't help but sigh, but Zhou Ning laughed. That's right, in this ghost place everyone is actually the same.

Benjamin sat quietly in front of the lamp, holding a rosary in one hand, with a delicate cross hanging on the top. His fingers gently twisted the beads, motionless and immersed in his own world.

"The Blue Son of God went back and went to sleep. He didn't leave anyone to serve him except No. 17." Ada brought a bowl of ginseng soup and placed it on the table. "As for the other Sons of God, they are still the same, except that the Red and White Sons are staying together again tonight."

"He's probably vomiting!" Benjamin put the beads into his arms and drank the ginseng soup slowly. "It's the first time, it's like this, you'll get used to it."

"I didn't expect that Lan Shenzi would find out so quickly. After all, the other three had never suspected it for so many years."

"The others have been here since they were young. Unlike Zhou Ning, who has been living outside all his life, he has not lost his vigilance. Besides, judging from what Zhou Ning has done outside, he is not someone who can be easily tamed."

"Then why did you let her come back? She is not suitable for the academy. She has long been contaminated by the outside world."

"Because she was sent directly by Del and met all the requirements, and she was even better than all of our expectations, I had no reason not to accept her."

"This guy Del has begun to doubt me a long time ago. He is not someone who can be fooled easily." Benjamin put down the ginseng soup in his hand and sighed slightly.

"Mr. Del is so stubborn!" Ada put away her dishes and expressed her dissatisfaction.

Zhou Ning did vomit for a long time just as Benjamin expected. But he turned around and spent the rest of the night lying in the hole with Martin like a mole. "You're amazing. You've dug such a long tunnel in just a short time."

"How could I have the ability to escape from prison? I discovered it by accident while I was working. It might have been left behind by someone who wanted to escape before."

Zhou Ning followed Ma Tian and walked out carefully along the secret passage. After about half an hour, they found the light in front of them. Zhou Ning kicked the baffle open. This place was some distance away from the academy wall, just beyond the man-eating ant colony surrounding the academy on the ground.

"Sister!" When Zhou Ting's voice came, Zhou Ning's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally found an anchor.

"elder brother!"

Zhou Ting dragged Zhou Ning out of the cave, with Zeng Ajiu and Ye Rong behind him. "Why didn't Lin Ziqiang come?"

"Someone has to look after the house..." Zhou Ting and Zeng Ajiu were both very hostile to Ma Tian and were unwilling to pay attention to him. Ye Rong could only speak to explain, not wanting to make the situation too awkward.

"Brother, to make a long story short, have you checked everything I asked you to check?"

"The sample that the little girl gave me was sent to a biologist that Lin Ziqiang knows. He confirmed your guess. If this thing is not artificially raised, it cannot survive here. The man-eating ants surrounding the school is not a natural phenomenon at all. Someone deliberately used this thing to trap the people inside to prevent anyone from escaping from the school at night."

"I also found out that Benjamin took over the academy when he was a teenager. At first, he was just doing some communication work with the British military, and later he gradually took charge of the entire school. Over the years, he has never left here except for necessary work. And he originally had a twin sister who was also chosen as a son of God and studied in the academy for a long time."

Zhou Ning was very surprised that Zhou Ting could find Benjamin's information in such a short time. After all, Benjamin was under the management of the military, and his personal information must be kept strictly confidential.

"I asked Del directly, so there should be no doubt about the accuracy of the information."

"You are really awesome!" Martin exclaimed in amazement, wondering why he had never thought of doing this.

"I'm not asking for any confidential information. I'm just worried about my sister so I want to know about the situation in school." Zhou Ting said this as a matter of course. After all, the news of his quarrel with Zhou Ning in the afternoon had already reached Del. He came to him with an expression of wanting to accuse someone, and for Zhou Ning's sake, Del would tell him some unimportant things in the college to appease him.

"Del wouldn't be so careless. It seems that his relationship with Benjamin is not as harmonious as I thought."
