Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 540 - 10: Records Left by Ancient People

In the game, it often happens that you come to a spot that seems to be a quest point, yet you cannot trigger the quest.

Tang Xian felt that today was just such a case.

Although this place, interwoven with plants, looks utterly peaceful, and the Guardian Bai Shuang is not as aggressive as the Sea Dragon that guards the ocean, Tang Xian simply could not cross this door.

He did not dwell on it much, having done all that he could; perhaps the time truly wasn't right.

Tang Xian bid farewell to Bai Shuang. Maybe it was because the white deer was so amiable, he too seemed amiable.

Bai Shuang remained the same, come if you will, go if you must. It roamed slowly around, as if it could never get enough of the scenery.

Tang Xian wondered, perhaps Bai Shuang saw sights from other places in its eyes?

He thought it pointless to ask, so he did not.

The three of them headed back.

The return journey was much faster, and the strange transformations in Baichuan City and its surroundings had not stopped, but the visual effects were no longer as breathtaking as before.

Halfway through the journey, a somewhat disgruntled Tang Feiji finally couldn't help it and said,

"If they don't let us in, shouldn't we just force our way in? Isn't that common sense?"

"Is your common sense taught by the Heifeng Stockade kindergarten?" Tang Xian said irritably.

Not long after seeing the deer, he had dismissed the idea of forcing a breakthrough.

First, because using force might cause him to miss some crucial message yet unknown, and second, because the white deer showed no hostility whatsoever.

Even though Bai Shuang could not transform into a human, Tang Xian had no thoughts of harming it.

Part of the reason was caution, but the larger reason was a matter of stance.

Even if the Sea God had protected all creatures, it couldn't be confirmed that the Sea God was helping humans.

And even if his parents had somehow endowed him with the bloodline of Eden, the lack of details about the event also didn't prove that the people of Eden were helping humanity.

Justice in this world varies with perspective, and Tang Xian's stance was with humanity.

Thinking objectively, one should maintain vigilance towards all non-human forces.

But this divine beast was different.

This divine creature was indeed guarding Baichuan City, and thanks to it, Baichuan City was able to preserve itself with such high integrity.

It was just a pity that he hadn't gained the white deer's recognition.

...

...

After Tang Xian and the others had left, Bai Shuang, though still leisurely as ever, held a hint of unusual doubt in its deer eyes.

[In the next five hundred years, there will not be another human who comes to seek you.]

The voice of the deer was more ethereal than that of other wild deer; however, Tang Xian, had he been there, would have been able to understand its meaning.

To the creatures of this world, this white deer is a sacred being, and so there are hardly any other creatures in the eastern outskirts.

[He is not yet ready, and we all should know, when something has not completely revealed itself, most conclusions about it can be overturned.]

Another unknown beast language, this voice was more profound and bore greater vicissitudes than Bai Shuang's, coming from within the cave. However, Bai Shuang could understand it just as Tang Xian could; the owner of this voice was able to express its thoughts to all creatures and listened to the thoughts of all things.

Bai Shuang did not argue but slowly said:

[You're already dead, and a dead creature should be more indifferent than me.]

[It is precisely because of obsession that I have not completely died.]

The voice in the cave, weary, continued:

[Merely protecting like this is not enough for this city.]

[This city has already found its Guardian. You should try to accept your own death.]

The strange conversation came to an abrupt end.

Bai Shuang knew it was not that the owner of that voice, or rather its master, had accepted its words.

The one in the cave simply remained silent in opposition.

With a light stepping of hooves, Bai Shuang's antlers once again reflected a clear light.

It seemed to arrive at some unknown destination, the surrounding scenery completely changed.

What was most incredible was that even the entire massive rocky mountain behind it was teleported thousands of miles away.

...

...

When Tang Xian returned to Baichuan City, Li Xiaoyu had already begun arranging people to explain the situation.

In this place, equal in wonder to the deities with its myriad sacred creatures and severe civilization disruptions, explaining an unscientific phenomenon was simple.

Everything could be attributed to the word "miracle".

After briefing Qing JiuYu and Tang Fei, Tang Xian went to Li Xiaoyu's office.

He told Li Xiaoyu everything he saw, heard, and guessed.

Li Xiaoyu was surprised that there was such a miraculous creature outside Baichuan City.

She said,

"If we just want to find out the historical truth, maybe we can do it now."

"Are you saying that the electronic devices have also been restored?"

"Yes, the data on many devices were unusable before, but now they've returned to how they were fifty years ago..."

Li Xiaoyu, seeing the excitement in Tang Xian's eyes, also became happy and continued,

"I have already arranged for people to organize it."

Tang Xian nodded, then said,

"We could define today in Baichuan City as a festival."

"That's an interesting idea, I'll plan it out myself later."

"Huh?" Tang Xian expressed his confusion.

Li Xiaoyu explained,

"Everyone longs for a festival with a regular name. Your naming level... no, your naming style is hard for everyone to follow."

Tang Xian found himself speechless for a moment.

Soon after, Tang Xian and Li Xiaoyu went to the room where the devices were stored and began to go through the information on each device one by one.
