I studied beheading in a mental institution

Fang Mo stared blankly at the falling figure, and fell into silence. In his mind, only the determination and pride of the moment Lu Baoyou broke free from his arm remained.

He remained silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued to climb slowly towards the top of the mountain.

Lu Baoyou's figure quickly fell down the cliff.

Just when he was about to fall to the bottom of the valley and his body was smashed to pieces, Lin Qiye on the cliff opened his mouth and murmured something softly, a whirlwind rolled out of nothingness, supported Lu Baoyou's figure, and slowly let him go on the ground.

Lu Baoyou's physical strength was exhausted. He lay powerlessly on the snowy ground, looked up at the cliff with no top, and closed his eyes.

"...the same mistake, I won't make it again." He muttered to himself.

The wind and snow were howling, and the recruits around stepped forward one after another, wanting to give Lu Baoyou a hand, but he just lay quietly in the snow, motionless, as if dead.

On the cliff, Lin Qiye was resting with his eyes closed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

At the bottom of the cliff, Su Yuan and Ding Chongfeng, who were about to climb the cliff, passed by Lu Baoyou. The latter looked at the figure gradually buried in the snow, and was about to step forward to pull him up, but Su Yuan stopped him.

"Don't worry about him, he is focusing on recovering his strength."

Ding Chongfeng was silent for a moment, then sighed, walked past Lu Baoyou, and began to climb the cliff.

Time passed, so far, nearly half of the recruits have come to the bottom of the cliff, climbing up one after another.

Su Zhe bent over, supported his knees with both hands, panting and looking at the towering cliff above his head, bitterness appeared on his pale face.

"It's really terrible..."

He simply rested on the spot for a while, and then started to climb the mountain with the large group.

During the training camp, the instructors have long taught survival skills in extreme environments, including freehand climbing, but due to terrain constraints, they have never really practiced it.

After climbing nearly one-fifth of the distance in one breath, Su Zhe really realized how difficult this matter is.

He was stiffly stuck between two raised rocks, the muscles in his arms began to tremble due to soreness, and the gradually thinning air made him have to speed up his breathing rate, but even so, his consciousness was still gradually blurred.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to cheer up, and continued to climb towards the top of the cliff step by step.

At this time, there were already recruits who couldn't persist and fell from Su Zhe's side. However, only a few of them, like Lu Baoyou, exhausted all their physical strength before falling from the cliff. Most of them felt When I reached the limit, I took the initiative to jump down.

Whenever they land, there will be a whirlwind to catch their bodies firmly and avoid injury.

They were lying powerlessly on the ground, gasping for breath, with despair in their eyes.

impossible……

For them, this is simply an impossible task.

Su Zhe tried his best to distract himself from his own fatigue, gritted his teeth, and moved his stiff body bit by bit.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from above the cliff clearly, echoing in the ears of every recruit who was climbing:

"If you can't hold on, it's better to give up."

Instructor Lin?

Su Zhe was taken aback for a moment, he raised his head in astonishment, and looked at the looming top of the cliff.

The other recruits, whether they were climbing, preparing to climb, or failed to climb, also looked up suspiciously. They all knew the voice of Instructor Lin.

"If you can't climb this mountain, it means that your strength and perseverance are not top-notch. If so, why are you still obsessed with joining the Night Watchman?" Lin Qiye's voice came out again, echoing leisurely in the dead valley:

"Have you ever known the annual death rate of the Great Xia Night Watchmen?"

"Within one year, on average, one out of every seven night watchmen will die in battle. This sacrifice rate even exceeds the number of new recruits in previous years. 90.00% of these sacrificed night watchmen are in the process of clearing the 'mystery' Die in battle."

"When the war starts, you recruits will take up the responsibility of guarding the city. Are you really ready to risk your life to protect the people in distress?"

"If you're not ready, it's too late to regret it now."

"You don't need to persist anymore, as long as you are eliminated in this training, you can quit halfway and return to the ordinary world, away from fighting, sacrifice and endless pain, you don't need to be the vigil in front of tens of thousands of people anymore People, but feel at ease to become the protected tens of thousands of people."

"This is the last chance to choose before you embark on the irreversible and thorny road of the Night Watchman."

Lin Qiye's voice fell, and the recruits below fell into silence.

On the cliff, among the recruits who had climbed to exhaustion, some began to show signs of struggle, while others continued to climb up unswervingly, and some roared in pain, closed their eyes, and succumbed to their inner desires. Weak, jumping off the cliff.

Su Zhe's fingers tightly clasped the protrusion of the cliff, his face was extremely pale, Lin Qiye's words echoed in his mind, and his expression struggled.

Is he... really ready to be a night watchman?

The training of these few months has indeed changed him a lot. Compared with the otaku Su Zhe before, he is completely different.

But as Lin Qiye said just now, is he really ready to sacrifice himself to protect the people in distress?Is he really ready to embark on this thorny road of no return?

……not necessarily.

After all, he came to participate in the recruit training camp only because of his sister Su Yuan.

He clearly remembered that in the car accident, he and his younger sister Su Yuan awakened the Forbidden Ruins at the same time. After that, the night watchman took the initiative to find them. The first moment he received the offer, his instinctive reaction was to refuse. After all, he was Su Yuan. Zhe is just an invisible girl-controlled otaku who doesn't have such a great ambition to protect the world.

If he hadn't happened to see Su Yuan secretly packing his luggage when he got up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, and was about to go to Shangjing to join the night watchman by himself, he might never have left that small county town in his life.

He had to admit that he was not at ease when Su Yuan went to the night watchman alone.

At this moment, on the snowy cliff, Su Zhe re-examined his original intention, asking his heart over and over again, whether he is ready to become a night watchman.

The answer is...he didn't.

The moment this answer popped up in Su Zhe's mind, whether it was intentional or his body was on the verge of limit, his hands loosened the bulge of the cliff, and his whole figure was like a bird with broken wings, falling powerlessly from the clouds .
