With power and ability comes responsibility.
So I have to do something.
Wu Jiong looked at Su Yao in front of her who seemed to be exultant, but there was an indescribable emotion in her heart.
She was now a member of the Pan-Humanist Guardians. Protecting the world and saving humanity had become her job.
However, in terms of power and responsibility to save the world, could she really compare to the girl in front of her?
The answer was obvious.
She couldn't.
Wu Jiong was undoubtedly confident. This confidence came from the immortal lord, from her identity, from her self-awareness. But now, this confidence seemed to have suffered its first setback.
However, no matter how turbulent her heart was, Wu Jiong's expression still didn't change much. She still played her role.
She also got a lot of information from Su Yao in front of her.
Although the Doomsday Survival Association was established 20 years ago, in fact, there weren't many members. After all, as a school club, members would directly withdraw after graduation. Now, there were a total of eight students, including Wu Jiong, who were still in the club.
Seven of them were ability users.
Only one was an ordinary person.
Wu Jiong was a little curious about the only powerless person, but now was not the time to find out.
At the end.
She asked Su Yao a question.
"Such a powerful club, there must be a lot of people who want to join. Why did you choose me?"
"Because …" Su Yao blinked, "You're pretty."
“.....”
You hesitated just now, you definitely hesitated!
Wu Jiong knew that it was definitely not the reason.
But what really made her feel frustrated was that she couldn't even find an ability to use as an excuse.
This unprecedented feeling of defeat … was truly unbearable.
In the end, even if it was a reason that made Wu Jiong somewhat unacceptable, she still joined the club. If you want to ask why — —
This was the task of the immortal lord.
For the whole day, Wu Jiong followed Su Yao. In a short period of time, the two were like best friends who talked about everything.
But after returning to her personal dormitory.
Tired.
Stripped of all pretense, Wu Qiong had never felt so tired before.
"Do you feel unsatisfied?" A voice suddenly appeared in front of her.
She raised her head abruptly and shouted respectfully:
"Immortal Monarch."
Sitting in front of her was Shen Yi, who was dressed casually and looked like a handsome young man.
"Wu Zhao." Shen Yi called out her name and looked at her expressionlessly. "You do have great potential, but that's all there is to it. Right now, you don't meet the standards of an official member of the association, whether it's your ability or your temperament. So, your joining is actually due to Clove and my willfulness."
This was undoubtedly a harsh evaluation.
Wu Jiong's heart tightened, but in the end, he could only lower his head and experience this unprecedented shame.
"Do you know the difference between you and Gu Yan, and even Su Yao and the others you met today?" Shen Yi asked.
"It's … an ability?" Wu Jiong answered cautiously.
Beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead. It was obvious that she was very nervous.
"It's your understanding of the end of the world." Shen Yi said. "The end of the world that Gu Yan and the others experienced was a war that engulfed the entire human race. It was an incomparably cruel slaughter, and billions of people died. Even Su Yao hid the extinction of the entire human race under her smiling face. It was a despair that could not be overcome no matter how hard one struggled. But you … we have protected the Tang world too well."
Wu Jiong's head buzzed.
Only then did she realize.
She was just unwilling to accept that her ability and performance were weaker than her peers, but she had never really thought about what the end of the world was, or what it was like to save the world. She had also never thought about what kind of pressure Su Yao, who was always smiling and even a little too active, was under.
In the face of the extinction of the entire human race and the death of tens of billions of people, all she thought about was the unwillingness brought about by her competitiveness.
She was too insignificant, too immature.
Wu Jiong bit her lips, her face red, and a great sense of shame filled her heart.
Shen Yi sensed Wu Jiong's emotions and nodded inwardly.
While having Wu Jiong carry out this mission was to introduce a white glove in the early stages, it was also to train Wu Jiong.
It was just as he had said.
They had protected the people of the Tang world too well, so much so that Wu Jiong had never truly understood what the end of the world was and what despair was.
Saving the world was not just a simple job.
One also had to understand the meaning of the end of the world and the savior.
Even Shen Yi himself had personally experienced that despair.
"It seems that you understand." Shen Yi's voice softened. "Then, the teaching time is over. You can experience the rest yourself. Now, tell me what you have discovered."
"Yes!" Wu Jiong took a deep breath and fiercely suppressed her emotions. After thinking for a while, she said, "Student Su Yao should be the Prophet."
"That's right. She is the second Prophet who has hidden herself, as well as the savior of the apocalypse twenty-some days from now." Shen Yi nodded.
He had known this from the moment he came to this world.
The humans of this world would eventually go extinct.
But Su Yao had pushed this time back a little.
She could be regarded as the savior of the original ecology of this world. Unfortunately, this savior failed in the end, so Shen Yi came.
"The crisis twenty-some days from now might be poison," Wu Jiong said. "And it might come from extraterrestrial life."
"That's right." Shen Yi nodded again and calmly said, "The end of this world is a war, a war between human civilization and other civilizations."
This point could also be confirmed.
Shen Yi had traced the answer from fate.
Unfortunately.
Due to the failure of the human race, Shen Yi could not trace back any more information. After the destruction of the human race, the unknown extraterrestrial civilization did not do much. It was as if they appeared only to destroy the human race and did not even hurt any animals or plants other than the human race.
This was also why Shen Yi did not directly reveal his true body.
In the case of a clear and intelligent enemy, it was not a wise decision to appear in the open.
Of course, this did not mean that he would not do something in the dark. Otherwise, he would not have quit Wu Jiong.
"Since student Su Yao has successfully survived the crisis twenty days from now, it means that the universal detoxification device I saw today has successfully played its role." Wu Jiong pursed his lips and continued, "But I don't understand. If it can be solved so easily, why did the Supreme Federation not do anything? Don't they also have a Prophet?"
