Chapter 354: Chapter 353 My name is Gu Ze, I am a hero Chapter 354: Chapter 353 My name is Gu Ze, I am a hero “The only hero that can truly save you is yourself.” “There are no saviors in this world.” “Even if there were saviors, they would save a whole era.” “Not any particular person, or a particular group of people.” “Fate lies in your own hands.” The two of them had already arrived at the most spacious clearing in the village. At this moment, several hundred villagers had surrounded the area. Within the encirclement stood three figures in white robes. Two men and a woman. The pure white robes fluttered gently in the breeze, with the word ‘Law Enforcers’ written on the back. On the chest was a symbol of a sword and shield. At this moment, Xu Zimei could still hear the villagers’ buzzing discussions around him. “Do you see the Law Enforcer on the left?” a villager said to their child. “That’s Gu Ze, he also came from our Guyu Village. Source: Webnovel.com, updated on Ɲ0νǤ0.ƈο He has now become a great hero. When you grow up, you should learn from him.” The child nodded vigorously, eyes filled with hopeful light. There really wasn’t much of a criterion for selecting Law Enforcers. Those underage, or unmarried, need not apply. Xu Zimei knew why, because these people still had the capability to reproduce. Breeding livestock were always intended to maintain an equal proportion of males to females, otherwise, there could be an imbalance between the species. The selection of Law Enforcers seemed very relaxed, as long as one met these simple requirements, they could become a Law Enforcer. In just one morning, more than twenty people from the village had been selected and taken away. The selection came to an end, and under the warm invitation of the village chief, Gu Qingyun, the three Law Enforcers reluctantly agreed to have lunch in the village before departing. During the meal, the villagers were bustling about inside the house. Xu Zimei slowly sat down next to the Law Enforcers’ table. He looked at the man named Gu Ze and smiled, “I heard that you were once from this village?” “Yes,” Gu Ze nodded slightly, looking at Xu Zimei with confusion. “You personally lead them to Hell, doesn’t that make you sad?” asked King Qinyou from the side. Gu Ze’s face changed slightly and finally he said, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.” “You know what I mean,” King Qinyou said indifferently. “What awaits them is only Death, becoming just part of the fresh blood needed by the Bloodthirsty Evil Clan.” King Qinyou looked indifferently at the three Law Enforcers. These Bloodthirsty Evil Clan folks are really something! To avoid raising suspicions among the villagers, they allow them to live in a cradle made of lies. They even have people from Guyu Village handle the selection. The words of Gu Ze are certainly believed by the villagers of Guyu Village, as it’s someone from their own village. If it was a strange Law Enforcer doing the selection, the volunteering villagers would surely have their doubts. I guess this method isn’t just employed in Guyu Village but probably across the entire Ancient Realm. “How do you know these things?” Gu Ze stood up in an instant, his face greatly altered. He drew his Longsword from his waist, asking warily, “Who are you people?” “We are merely passersby in this world,” King Qinyou said calmly. “What, got angry from the embarrassment?” Hearing King Qinyou’s words, and before Gu Ze could reply, Xu Zimei patted King Qinyou’s shoulder and shook his head at him. “This matter is none of our concern; no one is truly foolish.” “Then we are just going to ignore it?” King Qinyou looked at Xu Zimei and said indifferently. “I have decided to take care of this matter with Guyu Village, it’s about time these villagers knew the truth.” Xu Zimei smiled and shook his head, then sat aside without speaking further. Perhaps the plight of Guyu Village reminded King Qinyou of much. In those times of Wild Desolation, all beings existed as if they were mere ants. The three great races ruled over everything, it was a time when drinking hair was like drinking blood. However, as part of the Ancient Nether, they always thought about resisting everything. The humans of the Ancient Realm seemed to remind him of his own weak self from the Wild Desolation era. …… “What happened?” Hearing noises from the courtyard, the villagers quickly came out of the kitchen. They saw Gu Ze with his Longsword drawn, glaring coldly at King Qinyou. “Lord Gu Ze, let’s talk this over. He’s new to our village and doesn’t understand the rules,” Gu Qingyun hastily said. “Perhaps I should tell you all something,” King Qinyou looked at the people of Guyu Village and took a deep breath before speaking. “You’re seeking death,” realizing that King Qinyou was about to reveal the truth, Gu Ze’s face drastically changed, and he struck with his sword. Yet, in the end, Gu Ze’s strength was only that of the True Vein Realm. With a cold snort from King Qinyou, he didn’t even need to lift a finger. That cold snort, like thunder exploding, instantly dealt a heavy blow to the minds of the three Law Enforcers present. They spat out blood, their faces turning pale as they fell to the ground. Everyone looked at King Qinyou with faces filled with horror. “What I’m about to say next might be a huge shock to you. ƝοѵǤᴑ.сο You might not believe it, but I still have to say it,” King Qinyou said indifferently. “This so-called Ancient Realm is nothing but a cage. And all of you are merely food raised by a clan known as the Bloodthirsty Evil Clan. Those who are sent off to be heroes are in fact stepping on a path that leads to Death without return. And this Gu Ze is nothing more than a dog bred by others to weave lies.” Hearing King Qinyou’s words, Gu Ze closed his eyes in despair. Hot tears streamed from his eyes. His chest heaved uncontrollably. He roared towards the heavens. …….. My name is Gu Ze, and I am a hero. They say Law Enforcers are heroes. I was thrilled when I was selected to be one of them in this round of Law Enforcer recruitment. After bidding farewell to the villagers seeing me off, I followed the Lord Law Enforcer to that place I had long dreamed of. I thought it was the road to the Holy Hall, but I never realized what I would be going through next. Boiling blood tumbled in a pool like molten lava. Accompanied by the disintegration of flesh, the dissolving of bones, and those inhuman screams of agony. One after another, people were pushed into the blood pool. I stood at the end of the queue, fearing for when my turn might come. The monsters with sharp fangs and deadly claws sat at the edge of the blood pool. They drank the blood and gnawed on the bones. The crisp sound of breaking bones echoed in my ears. I was terrified; this was not how heroes should be treated. Finally, it was my turn. I stood at the edge of the blood pool, and the heat wave that hit me seemed to mock my ignorance. I thought my life was coming to an end. Suddenly, a man in a blood-red robe approached me. He asked me if I was willing to become a Law Enforcer. What is a Law Enforcer? To earn the trust of people from their respective villages or cities and bring them here without any hesitation. In exchange, I would be allowed to live. Even if it was a meager existence. I no longer had to become food for the monsters like the pigs jumping into the blood pool. I agreed, perhaps life is more important than anything else. Even though I initially felt full of guilt.
