My World: From Zombies to Demon King HIM

Chapter 443

The reason why Mustard has so many doubts about Xu Yuan is that he has suffered too much hurt and frustration, which has led to trauma syndrome in his heart.

He became sensitive and suspicious, and was full of vigilance and distrust of people and things around him.

Even if so many people choose to follow Xu Yuan, he will still involuntarily have all kinds of doubts and guesses, trying to find the slightest flaw in the other party's words and deeds.

Because he doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes again, the days when he was imprisoned by the void are memories he never wants to remember again.

After the villager kingdom was imprisoned by the void, the situation was indeed better compared to the various death threats that the villagers had experienced before.

However, no death does not mean no loss.

In the past, although the villagers often faced casualties, at least they had freedom.

Despite the difficult living environment, they always had hope.

After being imprisoned by the void, the void did give them excellent protection.

Their lives were preserved, but at the same time they also lost the true meaning and purpose of life.

The hope that once supported them to move forward was shattered, replaced by endless confusion and emptiness. In this closed space, they gradually lost themselves and could not find the value and meaning of existence.

The village that was once full of vitality became lifeless, and the villagers no longer pursued their dreams and lost their goals.

They had only one thought in their minds, that is, to escape from this terrible place.

However, every time a villager tried to escape, the iron golems would come up with all kinds of cruel means to torture them.

These iron golems were not in a hurry to kill the villagers who escaped, and they were not even willing to inflict any harm on them.

But they would torture their relatives and friends to death in front of those escapees.

This inhumane behavior plunged the villagers into endless fear.

They witnessed their loved ones struggling in pain with their own eyes, but they were powerless.

And those escapees who were caught suffered unbearable torment in their hearts-watching their loved ones being tortured but unable to do anything.

Faced with such a situation, the villagers felt desperate and helpless.

They didn't know how to get rid of this tragic fate, nor did they know if there was any other way out.

Every day was like a nightmare, and living became a torture.

Over time, they just lived in a daze every day, like zombies.

They didn't die, but they lost the reason and meaning of living.

This loss is more painful than death.

Because death can at least bring relief to people, and this aimless and meaningless existence erodes the souls of the villagers like a chronic poison.

They degenerated from living people with individual thinking consciousness to the original game data.

Mustard witnessed all this with his own eyes.

He had witnessed the village king establish the village kingdom with his own eyes, and he had witnessed the village kingdom become prosperous and noisy.

He also saw this piece of freshness slowly wither and turn into a dead silence.

That feeling is more terrible than witnessing the death of the villagers with his own eyes.

This is also the reason why he doesn't want to believe it anymore, because Xu Yuan and the void are both powerful beings.

He was afraid to entrust everything to others again.

But at this moment, the words of Blue Demon were like a key, opening the heart of Mustard that had been closed for a long time.

Mustard was stunned for a long time, as if time had frozen at this moment.

After a long while, he slowly came back to his senses and tried to calm down his inner excitement.

Then he raised his head, stared at Xu Yuan, and finally mustered up the courage to ask.

"I want to ask you one last question..."

Hearing Mustard's words, Blue Evil, who was standing aside, sighed and was speechless.

He thought that Mustard should have completely let down his guard after talking so earnestly for so long, but he never expected that he still had doubts.

Blue Demon opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Xu Yuan raised his hand to stop him.

"Ask."

Although he didn't know what Mustard wanted to ask, Xu Yuan could see that this question would be the one to open Mustard's heart.

Only the answer to this question could convince him completely.

"You once said that everything you did was for world peace."

"So, after leaving the trial ground, will you still fulfill this promise and resolve all disputes and conflicts?"

In fact, Mustard had full trust in Xu Yuan in his heart, but he felt inexplicably afraid and uneasy.

He was worried that once Xu Yuan entered the main world and successfully resolved the void crisis, he would no longer care about those who were against him.There is no trivia without any interests.

Even though the Blue Demon has revealed to Mustard that Xu Yuan has already made a lot of efforts in the main world, he still can't completely let go.

For Mustard, what he longs for is nothing more than a promise given by Xu Yuan himself.

It has to be admitted that Mustard has a keen insight into people.

He knows that Xu Yuan is a trustworthy person. If Xu Yuan is willing to make a guarantee, then Mustard will choose to trust him without reservation.

Facing the questions raised by Mustard, Xu Yuan did not hesitate at all and nodded decisively.

"I will uphold the principle of absolute justice and do my best to resolve all disputes and contradictions."

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, a big stone in Mustard's heart finally fell to the ground.

His tense nerves also relaxed at this moment, and the whole person became much more relaxed. After all, he got the most important thing from Xu Yuan - a personal promise.

Mustard walked slowly to Xu Yuan, with irrepressible joy and expectation in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, then knelt down in front of Xu Yuan without hesitation.

"I apologize for my doubts about you before."

"I have been through too much and shouldered too much."

"Those suspicions are not directed at you, but at myself."

"What happened outside the rainforest, what BBQ sauce said, and the hatred you mentioned are enough to give me hope."

"But I don't want to believe it."

"But your promise gave me the confidence to take this step."

As he said that, Mustard looked at Xu Yuan sincerely.

"I hope you can forgive my previous rudeness..."

Seeing Mustard's behavior, Xu Yuan was not surprised, but BBQ sauce, blue devil and the king of disaster were all caught off guard.

Although they were caught off guard, the three of them saw that Mustard was ready to surrender.
