An existence like the Son of the Plane cannot be replaced by just another person.
Seeing that Wayne remained silent, Xiaobai didn't seem to mind what he was thinking. "What? Is it possible that you are planning to mass-produce a large number of civilian magicians?"
"Can't you?" Wayne asked.
"In short, I don't recommend you do this." Gujing Mubo's tone made it difficult to tell his true attitude. "What truly maintains the existence of this world is not simply power or technological progress, but order and stability."
"Order and stability..."
Realizing the hidden meaning behind these two words, Wayne seemed to suddenly understand something.
Xiaobai casually made a very vivid analogy: "The upper limit of the energy that can be accommodated in a secondary plane based on a certain main world is constant. Just like blowing up a balloon, once too much air is poured into it, it will ——”
"Bang, the ground exploded."
Secondary plane?
Sure enough, it's not just as simple as knowing the original plot.
"You mean that a magician who is powerful enough will shake the foundation of this world?" Wayne frowned, "What about my existence and yours?"
Assuming that this world needs to maintain a certain balance, wouldn't it be myself and the person in front of me who are most likely to destroy it...
"Me? I'm an 'exception', don't count me in." Xiaobai and Lao Shen seemed not to think that they would be restricted by the so-called "rules" at all.
"And you, so far, have not been too thorough in seeking death, at least you have not exceeded the bottom line that this world can tolerate. If nothing else happens, things can still develop smoothly...well, probably."
Don't say this in such an ambiguous way!
Wayne really couldn't guess how many of the words in the white dog's mouth were true.
But his intuition told him that Xiaobai's advice was indeed in line with its usual behavioral logic - providing convenience for himself while carefully restricting his actions.
This shows that even in its eyes, "deviating from the main line" is by no means an easy thing to handle.
Maybe one day in the future, when he finally has an inevitable conflict with Xiaobai, this might be one of the trump cards that he can use to blackmail him.
"Thank you very much."
Wayne approached it and sat down cross-legged on the lawn. "Although I don't understand your origin..."
"But, I believe you."
The stagnant garden seems to have lost its vitality, without the usual fresh smell, nor the heavy feeling of humidity in the late night.
"After so many years of getting along, Chris and I have already treated you like family."
There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.
Time is a terrible thing.
It seems that as long as it takes long enough, regardless of whether the obsession is wary or not, sooner or later it will be diluted to the point where it can no longer stir up any ripples in the heart.
Ever since he met this guy, he had been wary of him, but so far he was just wary.
Unexpectedly, when Xiaobai heard this, he rolled on the spot and laughed, "Hey, are you suddenly starting to drink ecstasy soup? Young man~ This trick doesn't work for me. I'm not such a superficial person. "
shallow……
Wayne suddenly lost his temper.
"Okay, I'm superficial." He thought to himself that good men don't fight with dogs, "but I didn't lie to you."
Not intending to dwell on this topic any further, Wayne raised another question.
"So, you can actually be considered a time traveler, right?"
Looking at a corner of the garden that was extremely dark due to lack of light, Wayne let out a deep breath.
When he thought about the many precedents in which he, as a time traveler, had achieved success by relying on conveniences that could almost be regarded as cheating, he now felt very ashamed of having his privacy peeked into. It's like being immersed in a beautiful girl love VR game, taking off the device and suddenly realizing that there is someone sitting next to you, watching.
It sees all this in its eyes, would it usually pretend not to care and watch the meal, while at the same time laughing in its heart at the self-righteousness of a time traveler?
"Why don't you arrange a more advantageous identity for yourself?" he asked in a low voice.
With power beyond the level of this world, even if the real body is just a dog, it is not difficult to become the leader of a powerful force, which will make the plan it plans to carry out much smoother.
"Hey, don't compare me with you selfish time-travelers." Xiaobai was extremely disdainful of this title, "I said it, I'm just an observer."
Wayne's expression was a little dazed, as if he couldn't quite understand where his accusations came from.
"Isn't it?" Xiaobai walked up to him, staring at Wayne with his dark eyes.
"Human, you only came here to realize your wish."
Wayne opened his mouth to speak, but couldn't come up with a retort.
"Whether it's you or Chris... you are unwilling people, you are just here to find something that you have never been able to get in your life."
It exposes the obvious.
It’s hard to find any loopholes in its conclusion. It’s not like I never thought about it that way——
Now that we have traveled through time, there must be some meaning in extending our originally boring life for a while longer, right?
Things that you have wanted to do but didn’t dare to do, you must try this time; things that you have tried hard but failed to get, you must get them this time.
Yes, this is... naked selfish desire.
Wayne fell silent.
In the past, he simply thought that it would be great if the expectations of the people around him could be met. But once he acquires extraordinary abilities, his desires seem to continue to expand as his strength grows.
"I have no wishes that I want to realize, so it makes no difference to me what my real identity is." Although Xiaobai raised his head and looked up at the young man in front of him, he didn't seem to notice him at all, his eyes were full of pride. . "Observers should not interfere with the fate of anyone in the story."
It's lying.
Wayne understood this clearly.
If it really had no wishes, it wouldn't have bothered to help it eliminate the witch transformation, nor would it have worried about the plot deviating due to its own influence.
The only explanation is that the real "wish" still doesn't want to be known to itself.
Venn did not expose the inconsistency between its words and deeds.
"It doesn't matter if you do. Since you have helped me so much, I will help you as long as your request is reasonable."
After a moment of pause, Wayne emphasized again: "This time I am not giving in because of threats, but as your companions and friends."
He did not avoid Xiaobai's strangely oppressive gaze. "In exchange, if one day you can't be on the same side as me, please don't hide our differences from me."
