He knew he had come to the right place.

I don't know why I have this feeling, even though I don't feel anything.

But he knew he had come to the right place.

Lu Jing walked into the attic and hesitated for a moment whether to knock on the door.

After thinking about it, I realized that I didn't need to be so polite.

So he simply climbed over the wall and went inside.

Upon landing, I unexpectedly bumped right into the people inside.

The woman was tending to the flowers and plants in the yard when she saw Lu Jing jump in. She showed a slight look of surprise, then smiled.

"Captain, this is the second time we've met."

Her composure left Lu Jing somewhat bewildered.

Lu Jing: What am I here for again?

He looked at the snake.

Hua She wore a pure white dress, the hem of which fluttered gently in the wind. Her long black hair was carefully tied into a high ponytail, swaying slightly with her movements, making her look playful and lively.

At this moment, her slender hands were carefully holding a delicate flowerpot.

She seems like an ordinary, pure girl next door, making people feel close to her.

Lu Jingdu began to wonder if he had gone to the wrong place.

Hua She invited Lu Jing into the house.

Lu Jing hesitated for a moment, unsure of what the other party wanted to do.

He went inside.

Hua She poured him a cup of tea. "I've been a member of the Night Watch for so many years, and I never expected to meet the captain in person like this."

Lu Jing picked up his teacup, took a sip, and hesitated for a moment.

"Captain, I have so many questions I want to ask you."

“It’s alright, we have plenty of time,” Lu Jing said in a deep voice.

"What was your original intention in creating the Night's Watch? Where do you come from? Where did you obtain such great power? Are you an immortal deity who has lived since ancient times? And what about the mythical beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas? I'm very curious..."

The snake's eyes widened, filled with curiosity.

At this moment, Lu Jing had a strange feeling.

It was as if she were just an ordinary little girl asking herself a question.

Instead of facing the most powerful creature that may exist in the world today.

Lu Jing took a deep breath and quickly thought through his story.

He pondered how to perfect the story, and then, as the captain of the Night Watch, deceive the young girl before him, making her abandon her crazy idea with Bai Ze.

I am the captain of the Night's Watch, and I possess unparalleled strength.

So don't go against me, or you'll end up in trouble.

Little sister, abandon your crazy idea. Bai Ze is dead; you still have a way out...

After thinking for a while, Lu Jing couldn't utter a single word.

"It's a secret, isn't it?"

The snake seemed to have guessed that it wouldn't get an answer, so it spoke to itself.

"Captain, to be honest, I am truly grateful to you!"

I don't remember the exact day my dad died. I only remember him leaving the house as usual and never coming back.

Later, I learned that he had been killed when he was hit by a car that the awakened ones had carelessly abandoned during a brawl.

My brother originally had excellent grades and a bright future, but in order to support the family and take care of me when I was young and my mother who was frail and sickly,

They had no choice but to painfully give up their studies and enter society early to shoulder the burden of their families.

My family and I are just ordinary, unawakened beings. When we first arrived in this underground city...

I was a stranger in a strange land, with no relatives or friends around me.

Back then, we couldn't even afford a decent house to rent, so we had no choice but to temporarily live in makeshift tents. All around us were piles of foul-smelling garbage and homeless, wandering people.

Those days were truly unbearable to recall!

Hua She held the tea, lost in memories.

"Every day when I look up at that gray sky, I always pray silently: When will this dark and hopeless life finally end?"

Monsters are indeed terrifying; they are ferocious and brutal, mercilessly devouring people's lives.

What's even more chilling is that some so-called awakened ones, relying on their special abilities, wantonly bully the weak, even worse than monsters.

In such a difficult environment, they lived in constant fear, as if walking on thin ice.

I only hope that these evil beings can all disappear, restoring peace and tranquility to the world.

Captain...you gave us hope!

She stared at Lu Jing with her eyes slightly narrowed.

“I used to be very curious, my brother had already climbed to the throne of the Night's Watch, and even become the head of the entire European Union.

He became a member of the European Parliament and is about to become the youngest speaker of the lower house.

The British emperor also bestowed upon him the title of duke. He gained wealth and status, and shone brightly wherever he went.

At night, they also control the Night Watch, an organization that strikes fear into the hearts of all.

But why did he do all this? Why did he risk his life to do things that were detrimental to himself?

Later I gradually realized that my brother was different.

Even decades or centuries later, after experiencing countless life-or-death scenarios and bloodshed...

He was not tired, and remained full of fighting spirit, for the great ideal in his heart.

Captain, you gave my brother all of this.

You tell him that the world is filled with sorrow and bloodshed, but all that is needed is a single thought to save the people.

Although tens of thousands of people are coming.

My brother gave his life for this, and soon it will be my turn.

Chapter 214 Will it make the world a better place?

Lu Jing remained silent.

Looking at the snake, he felt as heavy as if he were carrying Sun Wukong's golden cudgel.

After a long pause, he slowly exhaled and said:

"Actually...actually, what I said was all copied from the internet...I'm not that great."

I'm not kidding you. The Night Watch and all that stuff is just something I made up when I was a kid.

I was very lonely back then. There was only my mother at home, and no one to play with me.

When I was in kindergarten, other families ostracized me.

My family is poor, and my mother is not an awakened one.

So back then, I always fantasized that I was a special being, because only in the world of fantasy could I be the most powerful.

Later, my father took me away, and I lived with my stepmother and my new younger sister.

My sister is amazing! Her grades are ridiculously good, and she even awakened an S-level talent. She's also very beautiful.

I could only deceive myself. No one was with me at school, and nobody wanted to talk to me.

I spend all my time socializing online, creating things like night watch groups.

At this point, Lu Jing paused.

"So, I'm not that great, otherwise why would I come looking for you?"

Actually, I just wanted to look cool, really, that was my initial wish.

I never even considered anything like saving humanity or creating a world-destroying scenario.

Later, I accidentally discovered that the Night's Watch I created had actually come true; I had no idea how it happened.

Lu Jing pursed his lips, feeling the scorching gaze of the snake-like figure.

"Actually, I just turned nineteen this year. I really don't know... I really don't know what to do. I never thought that Bai Ze or you would do such a thing, have such crazy ideas."

"Snake, stop!"

Those are all fake, all made up by me. Even if there are no Awakened in the world, the portal will still exist.
