Magical Girl's Knight Brother

Chapter 507 Sense of Security

"You heard it too, that artificial intelligence called itself the 'God of Time and Space,' so the being that could kill it must naturally be a god. In addition, the power shown by the Wolf Riders is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people."

At this point, Shangguan Su's shoulders relaxed slightly. She put down her cup and continued speaking.

"If that's the case, why don't we just treat the wolf riders as 'gods' from another world who have come to help us? A powerful god ally, a high and mighty 'outsider' who won't affect anyone's interests."

"Only this explanation can appease those people and get everyone to accept it."

Upon hearing Shangguan Su's words, Tang Zijun instantly understood the other party's purpose.

If the world were to learn that the Wolf Rider is actually a Chinese, and a "human" who wields the power of greed, then such an existence would inevitably drive those with ulterior motives even more insane.

If those heretics who worshipped demons were already a bunch of inhuman lunatics, then when they learned about the existence of wolf riders, it would definitely lead even more people to join the ranks of supernatural worship.

There are too many people in this world who want to gain superpowers. As long as they can become extraordinary and become superior, they won't care where these powers come from.

If the Wolf Rider is portrayed as a god from another world, then this would suppress some wicked but cowardly individuals. Didn't you see how those heretical demons didn't even dare to show their faces after the negative energy gap opened? They didn't dare to appear in front of the Wolf Rider, let alone anyone else.

Moreover, this approach has an advantage: it does not affect the current global order or the interests of others.

If they knew the Wolf Riders were in the real world, they might have some inappropriate thoughts, but if they were told that the Wolf Riders came from another world, their thoughts would be greatly diminished. At least until they were truly capable of venturing into the "other world," no one would actually do anything.

But is it really that easy to venture into another world?

Whether it's the dream world, the wasteland world, or the reverse world controlled by Tang Zijun, these are not places that ordinary people have the ability to enter. Even if they do enter, without Fang Xin's good luck, they probably won't be able to survive.

Having figured this out, Tang Zijun nodded slightly. "That really is a good idea. At least this way, even if I take action again later, they won't be able to find any fault with it."

"Please, just let me live two more years in peace, okay?" Shangguan Su helplessly raised her hand and bowed to Tang Zijun. "Next time before an operation, even if it's just a minute in advance, give me a heads-up, at least let me... let me take a quick-acting heart pill beforehand, let me think about how to clean up your mess!" "..." Tang Zijun's lips twitched. "Wouldn't 'cleaning up the mess' be a better word?"

"Get lost!" Shangguan Su rolled her eyes dramatically.

She leaned back in her chair and spoke again. "Tell me, what are you planning to do next? The enemy's knife is already at your eyebrows. I absolutely don't believe you don't have any ideas."

Upon hearing Shangguan Su's words, Tang Zijun's expression also became slightly serious. After pondering for a moment, he spoke softly.

"I want to prepare to return to the Wasteland. Judging from the current situation, the Wasteland is far more troublesome than the Otherworld and the Dream World. If we don't take advantage of this time to deal with the Gods of the Epoch as soon as possible, their subsequent retaliation will be even more intense."

"How's it going in the dream world?" Shangguan Su suddenly asked.

"Black City is currently trying to build a new food cultivation institution. With the help of the Flower Fairy Clan and some cultivation methods provided by the Bureau, it's generally doing quite well. I've asked Glolando to take in as many refugees as possible. It doesn't have to be as good as the front lines of the river region, but at least it should resemble a real town."

"Hmm..." Shangguan Su nodded slowly, then asked softly, "So, do you have any clues about the gods over there?" Tang Zijun stroked her chin and replied, "Still investigating. I tried to contact the god of commerce before, but I didn't get any response, and... the rules of that world seem to be different from ours."

"For example?"

"It's hard to describe. The information we have so far isn't enough to prove anything. I plan to have Hyacinth stay in Black City for now, and then I'll consider the Dream World after I've completely resolved the troubles in the Wasteland World."

At this point, Tang Zijun casually shrugged.

"Besides, there's nothing we can do about it. Black City needs time to develop. The people there are barely surviving, so how could they possibly have the capacity to help me with my investigation?"

"That's true." Shangguan Su picked up the cup and toyed with it for a moment. "Have you chosen anyone for your trip to the wasteland?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun did not hesitate and said directly, "I plan to go alone this time. The wasteland world is a bit chaotic, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of others if I bring them along. It will also be more convenient for me to go alone."

Shangguan Su opened the drawer, took out a small, exquisite black box, and placed it in front of Tang Zijun.

"What is this?" Tang Zijun asked curiously, picking up the box and opening it. Inside, she found a card the same size as an ID card.

"This is Fang Xin's identification. It's been prepared for several days. Please give this to him while you're there," Shangguan Su explained, then continued, "Also, tell him that we will take good care of his family, and that he shouldn't worry."

To be honest, if Tang Zijun didn't know Shangguan Su, she would have thought that sentence sounded like a threat.

Nodding, Tang Zijun asked, "I understand. Is there any other task I need to assign to him?"

"He's one of your men, so you can handle him as you see fit," Shangguan Su said casually. "Just one thing: be sure to prioritize safety." "I'll pass on the message."

I'm talking about you.

After a pause, Shangguan Su's gaze settled on Tang Zijun, her tone tinged with concern. "Although the Gods of the Epochs aren't true gods, since they can influence time, they're probably not that simple. Don't be reckless when you're alone." Tang Zijun met Shangguan Su's gaze, and seeing her earnest expression, he paused for a moment, then suddenly couldn't help but laugh. He didn't know why, but ever since he revealed his true identity to Shangguan Su, he felt that the woman's attitude towards him seemed to be changing.

When are you planning to leave?

"It's not certain yet. Let's rest for a couple of days first. Before I leave, I need to see Trova, oh, that is, the Divine Tree of the Flower Fairy Clan." Hearing Tang Zijun's answer, Shangguan Su tilted her head slightly, then waved her hand, indicating that he could leave. But when Tang Zijun's hand grasped the doorknob, her voice followed.

"Tang Zijun."

Tang Zijun paused, then turned her head slightly.

Shangguan Su didn't look up at him, but instead focused her gaze on a corner of the documents on the table, and spoke in a low voice.

"I won't pry into your background, including your dealings with those who are greedy. I think it's best if as few people as possible know that history, but I hope you can trust me a little more."

The door closed gently.

The office returned to silence.

Shangguan Su remained stiff in her posture for a few seconds before slowly leaning back in her chair. She closed her eyes slightly and raised her hand to rub her temples, seemingly trying to calm herself down.

Her body was still heavy with exhaustion, but the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Do you have a headache?

Yes, it's really a headache.

However, the powerful and irreplaceable sense of security that Tang Zijun brought was like a shot of adrenaline, allowing her to remain firmly seated in the most crucial position in the world.

As long as he's still around, perhaps this increasingly chaotic world isn't so bad after all.
