After the lightning, a deep rumble of thunder soon followed, like war drums exploding in the sky.
The demon, who called himself a hero, smiled faintly, but in the darkness, the smile seemed to carry a faint mockery.
He was just one person. Even with Chu Yu and the tool, the combined strength of the three of them was far too weak for a city.
They have no power.
We're too busy.
It's beyond saving.
"Besides... even if we help them, they might not appreciate it."
That's just how reality is. Even if Ning Feng were to help those impoverished people now, there's a high probability they wouldn't understand.
More often than not, they will be seen as bad people who disrupt a peaceful life.
Ignorant and backward.
This is a true reflection of them.
It was tragic and miserable.
This is their pitiful fate.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and raindrops gradually fell from the sky, quickly gathering into lines and pouring down.
Dark clouds loomed over the entire capital, obscuring the sky and blocking out the crimson full moon.
The room, where the candles hadn't been lit yet, was unusually dark, but a pair of eyes gradually lit up.
It was no longer aided by lightning, but stained crimson.
Walking out the window where the rain was falling, Ning Feng's eyes were bright and bloodshot, but his smile was exceptionally warm.
He was very kind to Jiang Wan's teammates and explained in a timely manner:
"To be honest, what these people's lives are like has nothing to do with us, right?"
……wrong.
This shouldn't be the case.
Chu Yu wanted to refute, but was overwhelmed by an inexplicable pressure and unable to resist.
Listening to Ning Feng gradually twist his logic, listening to him softly say that everything was worthless.
As Ning Feng passed by Chu Yu, who stood frozen in shock, he spoke softly:
"What's it to you? What's it to me? If you just don't meddle in other people's business, you'll have far fewer troubles in life."
That's not right!
The person Wan-jie likes, the kind person she speaks of, shouldn't be such a selfish person.
Something must be wrong.
"No, that's not right."
With difficulty, like a drowning person desperately grabbing the only rope, Chu Yu said with difficulty:
"We shouldn't be..."
The Watchers do not exist to receive praise and flowers.
That's not how it works.
In my memory, those figures who reached out to me didn't do it out of gratitude.
They only offered help because they saw the suffering of the weak.
Because someone was crying, because they saw it, they did it.
"To stand by and watch someone die is not in line with...our beliefs!"
This is not the belief of the Watchers.
Suddenly turning around, Chu Yu tried to grab Ning Feng's shoulder, but missed.
Well! ?
"you!"
Ning Feng took a half step back to dodge, and laughed as he looked at the anger on Chu Yu's face.
Very good, you've passed.
"Please calm down, Miss Judge. I think there might be some misunderstanding between us."
Ning Feng would never admit that there were other ways to test Chu Yu's personality; he was using this method to see other expressions from Chu Yu.
She's always been so obedient and gentle; I've had enough of that.
Of course, he would never admit to any of this, even if you beat him to death.
Ning Feng simply shrugged and said:
"I don't recall ever saying I wouldn't help them, did I?"
Chu Yu: "…………Hmm?"
Um! ?
"It's simply too late to help them one by one; that's a fact."
"So...why not choose to solve the problem at its source?"
"You see, I just didn't finish speaking, it's not that I don't intend to take action."
You! Him! Me!
Chu Yu quickly realized that Ning Feng's previous test was nothing more than a cruel joke. He wanted to curse, but in the end, he chose to remain patient thanks to his good manners.
Taking a deep breath, she clenched her little fists with genuine anger this time.
The fist has hardened!
We should not change our own bottom line just because other people's moral bottom line is too flexible.
Following Ning Feng's line of thought, it is easy to draw the following conclusion:
It seems that the problems can be solved by dealing with the person in charge of the country and returning all power to the people.
"...You mean you want to overthrow the king?"
Ning Feng blinked in surprise, thought for a moment, and nodded:
"King? Well, that's not wrong."
However, my real goal sounds much grander.
Gods.
But such thoughts are not suitable to be shared with others.
"Also, that strange guy you mentioned before? He's not strange at all. If he really discovered the truth of the world, he might be... the only one who is clear-headed."
The most absurd people are those who are sober.
He was the same kind of person as Reverend Charlie, except that the eccentric was much more fragile than Charlie.
"Is there really no one willing to believe him?"
Ning Feng sighed with emotion, his gaze passing through the wooden plank towards the dark alley where the strange man had been dragged away and disappeared.
"Some people might have doubts, but most people are unwilling to believe it."
"When a beam of light shines into the dark iron tower, exposing the filth and sin within, it is a pity... that beam of light becomes sinful."
Even if they discover something strange, they won't choose to find out the truth; instead, they'll silence anyone who tells the truth.
As long as I cover my ears, I won't hear the truth, and nothing will change.
