Godslayer: My Forbidden Ruins Master

"This is an order! Don't forget who you are now. You are no longer ordinary people, and you can't be so willful anymore!"

Instructor Hong shouted sternly!

This is for their own good; if they were to go out rashly under these circumstances, there is a high possibility of danger.

After being scolded so harshly by Instructor Hong, Shen Qingzhu and the others looked rather grim.

Not only them, but the other eager recruits present also looked somewhat dejected.

Seeing this, Instructor Hong paused, feeling a pang of sadness. He said, "The Night Watchmen are just human, not gods. We have no power, just like everyone else... I understand how you all feel. But each and every one of you here is very important to me, and I hope you can understand my feelings as well."

Everyone has worked hard today, so please get some rest. We'll descend the mountain after the rescue team arrives. Once we're down, you'll prepare for your oath-taking ceremony to officially become night watchmen, and then proceed to your respective posts.

Instructor Hong's gaze swept across the entire area, and his words immediately made all the new recruits feel somewhat gloomy.

Everyone understood that this was the last time they would all be together as a group. After this mission, they would go their separate ways.

Perhaps we will never have the chance to meet again in this lifetime.

Perhaps the next time we meet, not everyone will be standing here anymore; some comrades may have died in the line of duty or be unable to come.

The Night Watch is always the most dangerous profession, standing on the front lines.

"Heh, I still remember you bunch of greenhorns, so weak and pretentious when you first started. Especially you, Shen Qingzhu, with your bad temper, always looking like you wanted to punch everyone. And that chubby kid, he was no different from a pig every day, and..."

Instructor Hong looked at everyone and smiled.

“You have completely transformed now. You were able to run this far in one go and were willing to stand on the front line in this dangerous time to rescue people in the deep mountains. You have grown up. I have personally witnessed you transform from rookies into night watchmen.”

But you haven't matured enough; you're too naive and young. You often can't control your emotions. True maturity will come when you understand the importance of the bigger picture. Especially you, Shen Qingzhu!

If you can truly achieve that one day, your future accomplishments will definitely not be inferior to those of Lu Xuan and Lin Qiye!

Instructor Hong kept rambling on and on.

The emotions of everyone present were calmed down.

Everyone understands that this instructor means well, but searching for people in this storm could lead to unpredictable dangers.

So Instructor Hong was trying to enlighten everyone.

at last.

After his words of encouragement, everyone's emotions gradually calmed down.

The old man seemed to understand the danger of the situation and didn't say anything more.

After instructing everyone, Instructor Hong advised them to rest, and he himself quickly drifted into a nap.

The others also gradually drifted into a light sleep.

Lu Xuan's ears suddenly twitched slightly.

He didn't open his eyes, but he could clearly sense that Shen Qingzhu had indeed quietly left.

"This boy!"

Lu Xuan silently spat in his heart.

His figure remained in place; to be precise... the mirage copied itself and remained in place.

This clone possesses less than one-third of his original strength and can also serve as a warning, existing for several hours.

In the dimly lit mountain forest.

A man wearing a military green coat walked on the muddy mountainside, glancing back at the ruins that had been reduced to ruins in the valley. His eyes narrowed slightly.

He seemed to be looking for something.

The rocks, soaked by the rain, became soft and slippery.

He suddenly heard a sound and couldn't help but look behind him.

On my way here, I suddenly saw three figures struggling to climb.

"Hey bro! Wait for us!!"

"Brother!"

It was Deng Wei and his two companions who spoke.

"You!? How did you guys get here? Didn't I tell you not to come?"

Shen Qingzhu scolded.

"Hey bro, others may not know you, but don't we know you? You say you won't come, but actually you won't listen to a word Instructor Hong said, and you'll definitely sneak over to find him!"

"Yeah! We can't leave Brother Zhai alone."

"Don't worry, I made up an excuse to go to the bathroom and sneaked over. I guarantee no one saw me!"

The three guys chased after them, grinning.

"Damn it! Don't act like you know me so well. I just had a sore butt from sitting too long and came out for a walk!"

Shen Qingzhu glanced at them, who were covered in mud, and cursed.

"Hey, bro, tell me, how should we divide the work?"

Deng Wei and the others laughed.

"Visibility isn't very good right now, so we can't spread out too much. Let's keep a distance of 5 meters and search little by little."

Shen Qingzhu's lips twitched slightly, but she still made the arrangements.

"Okay! I'll listen to you, Brother Zhai!"

"That's it!"

"Don't worry, we'll definitely find it tonight."

"I was walking very carefully, someone might have spotted me!"

……

In the shacks of the ruins of Village No. 1.

"They're gone..."

Lin Qiye suddenly walked to the side of Lu Xuan's clone and whispered.

He did not intend to tell the instructor this news.

The main reason was to discuss it with Lu Xuan.

"Understood, I've already gone with them. What's left here is my clone, Qiye. If anything unusual happens, I'll need your help!"

Lu Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged, said softly.

"Um?"

Lin Qiye stared wide-eyed at Lu Xuan in disbelief.

The one sitting cross-legged in front of him was actually just a clone.

And when did Lu Xuan acquire a clone?

"It's one of the abilities of my heroic spirit..."

Lu Xuan explained casually.

Lin Qiye was greatly shocked upon hearing this.

This...this is practically a carbon copy of my mental hospital! Being able to acquire the abilities of Heroic Spirits—doesn't that mean the more Heroic Spirits Lu Xuan contracts, the more abilities he'll possess? This guy...

He's a monster!

Their future potential is definitely no less than mine, and may even exceed mine.

"it is good!"

Lin Qiye agreed with mixed feelings.

Shortly after.

"Brother Xuan! Brother Xuan!!"

Baili Pangpang, Molly, and the others also came over.

Clearly, they also realized that something was wrong.

Because so much time has passed and they still haven't found Shen Qingzhu and Deng Wei, those guys said they went to take a dump, but they've been gone for so long.

"Shen Qingzhu has disappeared, along with Deng Wei and the others! I suspect they've gone to look for someone."

"I'm worried," Fatty said.

"No doubt about it, they went. Don't worry, Lu Xuan has already made arrangements."

Lin Qiye answered instead.
