Pretending To Be A Boss
Chapter 851 - 38: Baichuan City with No Way Out_3

Ju Mang now understood.

"When two clever people spar, they both make the worst-case scenario plans in advance. This way, no matter what happens, it won't exceed their expectations. Qi Xun wants to find an escape route from Baichuan City, so my brother arranged for people to scout the ruins of other cities long ago. These people didn't know my brother's true purpose; they truly believed that they were going to pioneer new cities in these ruins," Tang Jing said.

"Then how can you be sure that Qi Xun will take the bait?"

"We can't be certain, nor did we ever intend to be. We just thought that if we let out a clue, the Order would certainly be able to find it. If we deliberately leave a clue, both Qi Xun and the Order will detect intentional traces."

Ju Mang was slightly surprised, not expecting their actions to be seemingly careful yet actually very bold.

"So how did Qi Xun find out in the end? Theoretically, if you wanted to cover something up, Qi Xun shouldn't have been able to discover it."

"What if Qi Xun has been transformed into an existence not so different from us?"

Ju Mang was surprised again.

"Just like how we can't see each other's panel requirements, what if Qi Xun's panel requirements are fake? What if he is no longer an ordinary human?" Tang Jing looked extremely serious.

"I am certain that Qi Xun can sense the changes in the people around him, which means he can now exhibit his talents beyond the mining areas. It's highly likely that he possesses the same perspective as us. That's why I haven't told Li Xiaoyu and Song Que, just you, because only you and I are beyond penetration."

Recalling some of Qi Xun's actions, Tang Jing believed that Qi Xun was already able to sense the creatures around him.

But fortunately... he himself is not a creature; he is an Angel Envoy.

Ju Mang finally understood completely.

"Did we fool her then? I mean the Order."

"I don't know, Qi Xun was fooled. But the Order might not be so easily deceived."

"What do we do?"

"There's no other way, we are just delaying the Order's steps. The current situation is actually the best."

"Why?"

"Because if the Order finds out that Qi Xun was deceived and the information is false, her first instinct will be to find a real escape route. But if we have no escape route at all, how can it be found? However, by deceiving Qi Xun, the Order will be more convinced that my brother has a contingency plan. It's a sort of bluff created out of nothing."

"It's like faking it until it becomes real. You brothers should stop fighting and killing in the future, and just take orders to help people deceive others, guaranteeing a successful deception every time."

Tang Jing smiled and said:

"This information must be kept secret, we need to use Qi Xun to create as many false messages as possible."

"But we really don't have an escape route, what if Tang Xian fails?"

Ju Mang asked subconsciously.

Tang Jing's expression suddenly became solemn:

"If that really happens… People will probably return to the Pyramid, right? Hasn't history disappeared before? Perhaps the disappearing histories were just like this. People may have thought about coming out, but failed. If my brother fails...

People will return to the Pyramid, the number of judgment knights will greatly increase, history will be rewritten once more. Whether humans will continue to exist is also uncertain; everyone might become just a piece of data in the kingdom of God."

"That's terrifying..."

"It is terrifying, which is why he cannot fail."
