Doomsday Roulette

The Gu Rui Star Clan vanished in a fit of anger amidst Ye Zhongming's near-declarative words, and the space once again returned to calm.

If Ye Zhongming had felt a hint of temptation from the Lutheran's invitation earlier, then he felt a deep-seated disgust towards the proud Gu Rui Star Clan. Their arrogance, which seemed to stem from an unknown source, rarely provoked a verbal clash from Ye Zhongming.

Of course, he had also gleaned some insights from the words of the Gu Rui Star Clan. Rather than being a test for evolvers to choose partners, it was more like a selection—a battlefield for these All Races of the Universe to pick warriors. This is a relatively civilized description; in reality, it is akin to people selecting pets or livestock in peaceful times. If chosen, they would be bought, and no one would care about the opinions of pets or poultry.

Compared to such actions, the only good thing now is that there are rules governing this selection, and these beings cannot engage in forced sales.

However, this does not change the fact that the evolvers on Earth are being exploited and coerced by others.

Offering you some benefits? Yes, but you might pay with your life.

Having good equipment in hand does not alter the fate of being driven by others.

This was not what Ye Zhongming hoped for or could accept.

He did not want to be cannon fodder, dying on the front lines while fighting for the benefits of those who enslaved people on Earth.

Sitting in space, he lowered his head, the light being obstructed, making his face appear somewhat unpredictable, just like his mood.

Things were far more serious than he had imagined.

Initially, when he first learned of the slave clan, Ye Zhongming thought they were the root cause of the Earth's apocalypse and the ultimate target for himself and other evolvers to resist.

But as his strength grew, as the power he wielded expanded, and as he encountered more and more things, he became aware of other life forms—those he had seen in the space battleships through Li Qiang's words.

Ye Zhongming didn't know if those beings were indeed part of the slave clan, but at least they did not seem to belong to the same group based on their appearances.

So, is there a specific life form among them called the slave clan, or is the entire group referred to as the slave clan?

Now that Ye Zhongming has learned about the Lutherans and the Gu Rui Star Clan, where do these beings come from? Are they all part of the slave clan, or subordinates of the slave clan, or beings of equal status? Or perhaps something else?

Numerous questions lingered in his mind, causing Ye Zhongming to feel extremely uneasy.

Above the heads of Earthlings, could it be... a contest of all races?

Currently, there are rules that these life forms must follow, which is why they haven't directly descended upon Earth. But what if one day these rules are broken? How would Earthlings resist?

Moreover, what is their relationship with the roulette?

In the midst of such anxious thoughts, Ye Zhongming did not notice that the color of the space had changed again until a voice emerged.

"I am the great warrior of Holy Sangru, the conqueror of Holy Mountain, the unwavering Haritofu, representing our great war god Mendis of Holy Sangru, inviting you to become one of us. If you agree to join, you will receive a drop of the blood of the war god and the blessing of a king!"

Ye Zhongming was startled awake but quickly replaced his expression with a cold smile, listening quietly.

"Holy Sangru is..."

This person kept speaking, and Ye Zhongming listened without interruption until a certain moment.

"Who are the slave clan? What exactly is the roulette?"

The great warrior of Holy Sangru, the conqueror of Holy Mountain, the unwavering Haritofu quietly retreated as the color of the space changed again, and new groups arrived.

Ye Zhongming listened in silence before asking that question.

Who are the slave clan?

What exactly is the roulette?

None of the beings from the various groups—some indifferent, some passionate, some arrogant, some enticing, some threatening, or requesting—answered him.
