Just as Fang Xin was feeling a mix of emotions, Tang Zijun slowly reached out and patted his shoulder.
"You don't need to be so stressed. Things aren't that serious yet. I came here by accident, but now that I'm here, I naturally want to find a way to completely resolve this problem. You don't want to see that battle happen on Earth, do you?"
Where did the battle just take place on Earth?
Upon hearing Tang Zijun's words, Fang Xin broke out in a cold sweat.
Just kidding. That level of battle, although it may seem to be taking place in a city floating in space, has already reached inhuman levels of destructive power.
In other words, Tang Zijun injured and suppressed the God of Life from the very beginning; otherwise, if the God of Life had been allowed to fully mobilize the power of the entire royal city, the destruction it would have caused would have been equivalent to the power to destroy a star.
The destruction of countless civilizations by the gods of the era was not just a figure of speech; it was a genuine destruction of the entire planet's material resources.
The destructive power of the Gods of the Ages, capable of completely annihilating a civilization whose technological level had reached the point of researching space, is beyond the comprehension of Earth's third-rate technological civilization.
Fang Xin didn't believe that magical girls could withstand enemies of this level. Although he had never witnessed a magical girl's fighting power firsthand, in his understanding, magical girls were at most street heroes.
Even if someone like Tang Zijun exists, if the two sides were to clash on Earth, not only would Earth be destroyed, but the entire solar system would probably be destroyed as well.
Thinking of this, Fang Xin forced a wry smile. "...Brother, isn't this enough pressure?"
"If the sky falls, someone taller will hold it up. That's not something you need to worry about right now. First, tell me, where exactly are the true forms of the gods of the era?"
Fang Xin pondered for a moment, paused, and then spoke. "To be honest, I don't know the location of the original bodies of the Epoch Gods either. You know, I've only been here for three months. Dilia and the others are aliens, so their understanding of the situation here is limited. The wastelanders avoid the machines like the plague, let alone actively investigate them."
""
"Is that so?" Tang Zijun frowned. This matter was indeed not as easy as she had imagined. The universe was so vast; who knew where that mechanical intelligence was hiding?
Moreover, it is said that the gods of the era have gone to other star systems to destroy civilizations, which means that those gods are not in the wasteland at the moment, and even if they are, they would not normally stay in the wasteland.
The Earth is now riddled with holes, bearing the marks of destruction and experiments left by the gods of the ages. This environment could not possibly provide them with enough resources. Those guys must be hiding somewhere rich in resources, secretly conducting some experiments, just like that God of Life.
I just don't know how I can find the other person's location.
"Speaking of which..." Just as Tang Zijun was pondering, Fang Xin suddenly hesitated and spoke up. "Big brother, I still don't know your name."
"Just call me Wolf Rider." Tang Zijun didn't hide anything and slowly uttered her title.
"Wolf Rider, I know, that's the code name for the Magical Surveillance Bureau, right? I didn't expect there to be someone in the bureau who can control the power of shadows, and such a powerful one at that. I always thought the Magical Surveillance Bureau was just relying on magical girls to keep it afloat." Fang Xin smiled.
"My identity is rather special, and unless there are special circumstances, people generally cannot get in touch with me."
"I understand, I understand," Fang Xin nodded repeatedly. "It's a state secret, you know. Someone like you, naturally the fewer people who know about you, the better."
Tang Zijun shook his head slightly, neither admitting nor denying, then said softly, "Alright, stop talking about me, let's talk about you."
Fang Xin paused for a moment, then said cautiously, "What do you want to know? I'll tell you everything I know."
Tang Zijun raised an eyebrow, her gaze, hidden behind her mask, glancing at Dilia, who was nibbling on bread a short distance away. "How far have things progressed between you and her?"
"Huh?" Fang Xin hadn't expected Tang Zijun to want to know this, and for a moment he was at a loss for words, his face turning bright red. "I...I...I..."
"You don't have reproductive isolation, do you?" Tang Zijun suddenly asked.
"Of course not!"
Fang Xin suddenly spoke, but then his voice trailed off.
"Well... it's not uncommon for people from different planets to live together in the wasteland. They're all trying to pass on their species. As for reproductive isolation, they're all genetically similar species. Although Leah is a bit different in some ways, it's... but it's okay."
"So, you're really planning to settle down here?" Tang Zijun looked at Fang Xin with interest.
Fang Xin scratched his head and said frankly, "That's exactly what I was prepared for. I was inexplicably sent to this place, and I thought I had transmigrated. I shouted until my voice was hoarse but still couldn't see the system. Who would have thought that one day I would see my own people again?"
At this point, Fang Xin suddenly raised his head.
"Hey, big brother, you must have a way to leave here since you got here, right? I remember you said you came here with a magical girl, and then you sent her back."
"No, not directly... um... I guess you could say I sent her back. But I'll have to figure out how to pick her up later. So, are you already planning to leave?"
"I...that's what I wanted to say..."
Fang Xin gritted his teeth, seemingly considering his words. Tang Zijun didn't urge him, but just quietly watched him. After a moment, Fang Xin spoke softly.
"Big brother, can I not go back?"
"Um?"
Tang Zijun frowned.
"What do you mean?"
"Yes, yes, I want to stay here." Fang Xin took a deep breath. "Actually, I was just thinking about this. I hadn't thought about it before, but I have enough focus to think in the shadows."
"It's not that I don't want to go back. In fact, I miss my parents, my classmates, and my friends. I even wish I could appear in front of them right now and tell them what I've been through, but..."
Fang Xin raised his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Brother, three months is not a long time, but it is not short either. Here are my brothers who have shared life and death, and the woman I would give my life for. I cannot abandon them."
"You can't have your cake and eat it too. If I could, I would really like to take Elylia and my companions to Earth, because they can have a better life there instead of struggling to survive in a wasteland. But I also know that's impossible."
"Leaving aside the others, just look at Leah. What she possesses is beyond what our world can accept. Those advanced technologies and powerful weapons were obtained by various planets through irreversible destruction of nature. I don't want my homeland to become like that."
"Besides, the Outer Path Demons, the Shadow Clan, and the Magical Girls are already chaotic enough. If a bunch of aliens from the wasteland world were to appear, it would probably cause trouble for the Magic Bureau. As for me and Leah, I'm confident I can convince my parents, but if I go back, I'm afraid I'll be facing more than just my parents."
"Haha... When the time comes, I guess someone will say that classic line—'You can't be together because you're not from the same world.'"
"Sorry, I think I've been a bit long-winded." Fang Xin scratched his head. "Anyway, I still hope I can stay here."
Tang Zijun remained silent, her gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.
He paused for a moment before slowly speaking. "You need to understand that you are just an ordinary person. This place is dangerous, and you could lose your life at any moment."
"I know, I've already experienced it, hehe..." Fang Xin chuckled, then sighed. "But where isn't there danger? Even if I go back, I might still die at the hands of heretical demons or strange beasts, wouldn't I?"
"
"Are you really sure about your decision?" Tang Zijun looked directly at Fang Xin. "If you encounter danger here, I might not be able to get back in time."
'
'
Fang Xinyan did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Lia and his companions.
Fang Xin slowly exhaled and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"...I can't abandon them. They might be able to live a better life on Earth, but in the wasteland, they're not considered outsiders."
Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun's eyes flickered slightly.
Following Fang Xin's gaze to the group of aliens with different skin colors, who were somewhat different from humans, Tang Zijun smiled.
"Is that so? So that's what you think..."
"Big brother, I..."
Fang Xin withdrew his gaze, preparing to say something, but before he could speak, Tang Zijun continued.
"You made a very mature decision, more mature than most people. It seems you have really grown a lot in these three months."
As he spoke, Tang Zijun casually waved his hand, and the next moment, a card appeared in his hand.
Fang Xin took the card that Tang Zijun handed him, and saw the iconic logo of the Demon Surveillance Bureau on it.
"This is?"
"This is my identification from the Demon Suppression Bureau," Tang Zijun said. "Your situation is special, and it won't be easy to get you a new one. Just use mine for now, and I'll get you a replacement later."
Fang Xin didn't react at first, but he quickly realized something and looked at Tang Zijun in disbelief. "You, you mean..."
"Welcome to the Demon Surveillance Bureau, Agent Fang Xin." Tang Zijun gently patted his shoulder.
"I am qualified to recommend an agent, and I do need someone who can gather intelligence in the wasteland. I don't think the department will have any objections. I will take care of the subsequent procedures for you. When the time comes, I will find a way to come back with my identification. With that, I will be able to find you."
"Yes." Fang Xin nodded emphatically, speaking from the bottom of his heart. "Thank you, Mr. Wolf Rider."
"We're all on the same side, no need to be polite..."
Tang Zijun waved her hand casually.
But then he suddenly sensed something and his body stiffened.
The light suddenly shifted behind him, and then, in the otherwise indifferent air, a strange, eerie blue spark burst forth.
The tiny lightning bolts became increasingly visible, and there were even subtle signs that the space itself had been slightly disturbed.
This process did not last long; soon the lightning coalesced into a tangible form in mid-air.
Then, a head slowly appeared in Tang Zijun and Fang Xin's field of vision.
