Chapter 22: Choice
Gu Zheng has a sense of belonging to the Terran race, but the sense of belonging to the Terran is not higher than his own life. When his parents died outside the ark, Gu Zheng was still young, and he had no ability to live on his own. In the first few years, Gu Zheng did whatever it took to survive, robbed wild dogs for food, took advantage of the dark night to attack unguarded places, robbed children younger than himself, and even killed people in order to survive...... Those pure black years have been deeply imprinted in Gu Zheng's soul, and Gu Zheng asked himself more than once in those days, when he has no food, where is the righteousness of the human race, and when he gives up his dignity in order to live, where is the righteousness of the human race?
Fortunately, Gu Zheng's life was very hard, and after surviving those years, Gu Zheng finally had a way to live, and finally found a better way. Later, in the adventure, Gu Zheng realized that it was not the world that was cruel to him, the so-called fate was unfair to everyone, everyone had their own story, and everyone had their own difficulties. A child who has lost his parents, a woman who has lost her body, a man who has a crippled body to support his family, a baby who has died before seeing the world, and a sacrifice that has been tortured since birth...... At that time, Gu Zheng knew that fate may be cruel, but it is not aimed at a certain person, the so-called fate is aimed at an ethnic group and an era. If the human race is strong, everyone can live a little better. If the human race is weak, everyone will live in tribulation.
Gu Zheng has seen too many heroes, those dazzling, tough, and seemingly omnipotent heroes, some of whom died in an important battle and became statues, inspiring future generations with legends and stories. There are also people who are still alive, continuing to burn themselves like candles for the sake of the Terrans. Some people lost their combat effectiveness and moved to the rear, constantly delivering fresh blood to the human race. Some people betrayed the Terrans for profit or ambition, causing great trauma to the Terrans...... Over the years, there have been many legendary names that have passed into Gu Zheng's ears, some of them are still shining brightly to light the way ahead for the human race, and some can only remain in history. Some of them really saved the Terrans, but many more only regretted them.
For a race, a person's strength is extremely humble, and if you want a race to continue to continue, it takes the efforts of generations, and a person's strength is limited after all. Gu Zheng has long had no resentment towards the Ark, after all, for a race, a person is really humble to the dust. If the ark rescues the homeless children, the consumption is too large, and the child's success rate is very low, and the investment is not proportional to the income. But if the ark can become strong and have enough strength and heritage, then these children will be able to live a little better in the future. For those in power, every decision is an infinite number of lives, and at that point, human life may only be a number.
But Gu Zheng is not a superior person, and he never feels that he is a hero, let alone that he has the potential to become a hero, the most important thing is that Gu Zheng has never felt that he can stand at the fork in the road of history.
It's just an egg, it's just a few hundred human adventurers...... A small zombie plain, even if it is a king, what power can it have? Among the hundreds of human adventurers, there is not a single human powerhouse, and there is no lord...... No matter who stands here, they will feel that all the creatures standing in this square at this time are ants compared to the whole world, and no matter who lives or dies, the impact on this world should be minimal.
As a result, in the time when countless historians have set aside their endless time and gone back to this time, they will sigh at the choice of the young man called Gu Zheng. For humanity, there is nothing wrong, but for the Terrans, everything took a turn at this moment.
The young man named Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and stood on the side of the alien race.
If Gu Zheng heard the words of historians countless years later, he would definitely get up from the coffin. If there is a choice, then of course Gu Zheng will stand on the side of the human race and kill all the zombies. But the problem is, the puff is not guilty of his guilt! Whether it is the many adventurers gathered here or this huge throne, it means that this egg has an absolutely amazing origin! As long as Gu Zheng's identity is exposed, then these people will definitely imprison the zombies and get this egg by any means! As for Gu Zheng's life and death, everything about Gu Zheng ...... For ants, who cares? Standing on the side of the zombies, Gu Zheng still has a glimmer of life, but as long as Gu Zheng's identity is exposed, it will definitely be nine out of ten! Even if he returns to the Ark, no one will stand up for such a small person as Gu Zheng!
Gu Zheng wants to live, but Gu Zheng doesn't know what impact his current choices will have on the future.
Gu Zheng poked one of the guards standing beside him and said, "Brother, can you understand what I say?"
The guard turned his head wordlessly, looked at Gu Zheng for a few seconds, and then nodded.
Gu Zheng said happily: "You go and help your boss now, if it dies, if one of us counts one, we all have to die here!"
These dozen or so guards surrounded Gu Zheng, stared at Gu Zheng directly, and didn't speak, just watched silently through the armor, and Gu Zheng got goosebumps when he saw it. After thinking carefully for a moment, Gu Zheng said: "You can also see my strength, you leave a few to watch me, as long as I make a move, you can kill on the spot! You can also see that there is really no time! And take a step back and say, you go, you still can't beat them, if I am their people, I can go." You go and kill them, and I'm still here! Such a simple multiple-choice question, you want me to teach you how to choose?"
At this moment, well, it's still the old saying, the broken wheels of history are crunching and turning.
More than a dozen guards glanced at each other, three of them did not move, but the others held their war knives in both hands, and then stood straight in front of them! Gu Zheng was slightly stunned, and then said tentatively: "You guys, are you waiting for my order?"
"We ...... I don't know how to stratagem...... You...... Command!"
Completely covering his body with a broken step piece, Gu Zheng stretched out his fist and smashed it on his Adam's apple! With a crisp sound, blood suddenly spurted out of Gu Zheng's mouth. This level of pain was not comparable to the poison that had burned to the extreme, and Gu Zheng opened his mouth and tentatively uttered two syllables, hoarse, low, as if metal was rubbing...... Nodding with satisfaction, Gu Zheng stretched out his finger and pointed at the dozen or so people who were fighting below: "There is a special method of messaging between you, leave one to pass the message to me, and the rest of the people will be divided into two teams, one team will hide in the team and wait for my order, and the other team will go and kill that person!"
Gu Zheng's eyes flashed with a murderous light and said, "Although she hides it well, she is a magician, healing, stamina, spiritual, and poison resistance...... Hey...... There are quite a few of them. I'll tell you again, boss, reinforcements are coming!"
Whoa!
Several loud noises echoed in the center of the square, and the besieged captain of the guard subconsciously turned his head, and immediately saw a ...... sitting on the throne The people who were attracted to the attention were all slightly stunned...... And what about the egg? Hatched? And what did it do?
