Chapter 438 Clear

Instantly, some people's clenched fists suddenly relaxed, while others paused and leaned back on their chairs, looking ashen.

Without hesitation, the man at the end of the long table announced the result of the resolution, "According to the resolution of the Elders' Council, starting at 24:00 today, all people in the shelter who have been eroded will be cleared indiscriminately."

"The order of clearing is based on the current degree of erosion, from high to low."

"No matter which family they came from before being eroded, or what identity they had, from the moment the resolution is issued, they are our enemies."

"After the clearing is over, the shelter will be permanently closed, and the identity and history of any cleared person will be erased."

"They will not appear in the family tree and various records."

"But we will always remember their contributions to us."

The man slowly stood up, raised his left hand, and pressed his left chest, his attitude solemn and sacred, "I will watch in the dark night, hoping that more people will sing praises to the dawn."

After a while, more and more people stood up, raised their left hands, and pressed their left chests like the man.

Some people were trembling, and some were sobbing softly.

They fully understood that after this resolution was issued, how many lives would wither, and these people were once the pride of each family and well-deserved elites.

"I watch in the dark night, hoping that more people will sing praises to the dawn.

"Bang!"

Just as everyone was remembering the hero who was about to die, the dark door was knocked open, and a figure stumbled back, from the outside of the door, all the way back to the meeting room.

Finally, he stumbled and fell to the ground.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a lead-gray suit walked in from outside the door. There was a scar on the corner of his mouth. Although he didn't look fierce, he looked quite difficult to deal with.

"Gong Zhe!" When seeing this face, an old man attending the meeting immediately recognized him and his face changed suddenly.

Compared to this name, everyone present was more familiar with his nickname in the night watch.

Boneslayer.

A guy who kills people like chopping straw dogs.

"What are you doing here? "Another old man seemed very dissatisfied with Gong Zhe's domineering appearance. This is the Supreme Council of the Night Watch Executive Department, not a place for lunatics to run wild.

The middle-aged man called Gong Zhe was not annoyed. He stretched out his left hand hidden under his sleeve, turned his hand over, with the palm facing up, and then slowly unfolded it.

Everyone's eyes paused.

In the palm of his hand, a ring lay quietly.

"I am here to attend the council. Gong Zhe slowly straightened up. His voice was not loud, but it was just loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly, "Representing the Xia family."

"Twenty years ago, Xia Yuan gave up his seat in the Elders' Council and withdrew from the Night Watch. He is no longer qualified to participate in the council of the Night Watch Executive Department." An old man slammed the table and shouted loudly.

"I am not representing Mr. Xia Yuan, but his heir." Gong Zhe said, "Miss Xia."

"Xia Yuan is not qualified, so what qualifications does a young girl who has not grown up have?" Some people laughed angrily, thinking that Gong Zhe was crazy.

"There were 13 families who founded the Night Watch, and the Xia family was one of the 13 families. Why don't you have the qualifications?" Gong Zhe asked back: "And the oath we made at the time was that once you step in, you can never leave, and it will be passed down from generation to generation unless the family disappears completely. Have you forgotten all this?"

Some people looked at each other in surprise. What Gong Zhe said was true, but if he was allowed to participate in the vote, there would be a high probability of variables.

And this was something they absolutely could not allow.

After a few obscure glances crossed, someone nodded secretly.

Some hands began to touch the weapon at the waist.

Gong Zhe retracted his hand holding the ring, then lowered his right arm, shook it slightly, and a huge folding knife slipped from his sleeve and was firmly grasped in his hand.

A strange aura began to spread in the conference room, and almost at the same time, changes began to appear on several elderly people attending the meeting at the same time.

Veins appeared on the forehead, some arms showed strange anti-joint twists, and there was a thin old man, his upper body bulged like blowing air, his neck muscles were bearded, and he was as strong as a bull.

Without exception, the eyes turned scarlet.

The ancient and solemn atmosphere descended, and there was a faint sound of a grand bell in the ears.

They are all the owners of the door.

The door is poison, but at the same time, it is also a good medicine to resist threats, diseases, and even time.

They rely on the power in the door to survive until now, and their physical fitness is much stronger than that of young people.

That is the power of the taboo sealed by the curse.

But at the same time.

It can resist time.

Unexpectedly, Gong Zhe was not afraid at all, but strode forward and took a step hard. The breath that came to his face made many people present breathless.

"Enough." The man at the end of the long table suddenly spoke.

"You're right." The man let out a long breath. Someone immediately wanted to interrupt him, but he ignored them. "It's Xia Yuan's business that he is not eligible to vote, but the Xia family can."

"Our topic today is how to deal with those corrupted night watchmen. Their corruption is irreversible. Perhaps killing them is the greatest mercy for them."

"Everyone here knows the consequences of being corrupted. We are all the same. From the moment we accepted the gate, God has abandoned us."

"We will also be corrupted one day, so the decision we made for them today will be repeated on ourselves in the future."

"But there is no other way. If you want to deal with the devil, you must first become a devil. If you want to resist the curse, you can only swallow a more terrible curse."

"I have finished speaking." The man looked at Gong Zhe and said calmly: "Now it's your turn to make a decision, Mr. Boneslayer."

"Gong Zhe!" Someone said loudly: "You must know that your decision may destroy all our previous efforts!"

"Those corrupted guys are no longer our familiar partners. We have no way to deal with them, and we can only try our best to contain them."

"Once a large-scale riot occurs and they escape into our world, do you know what will happen?"

"You will be a sinner in history!"

"History books will compare you to the most brutal and stupid demon! It was your one thought that led to all these disasters!"

Gong Zhe showed the ring belonging to the Xia family to the Night Watchman logo on the high wall behind the long table, "The Xia family opposes this proposal."

"Gong Zhe!!" Someone's eyes were red.

The man at the end of the long table, who was also the host of this parliament, seemed to be relieved and fell into a high-backed chair.

"The resolution was not passed, and Council Order No. 143 is revoked," the man finally announced. "The shelter will remain as it is."
