Scientific Travel

Deng Yin: "Why is that?"

“Because you are the chosen one.” Gou Dan sat down next to Deng Yin, took a deep breath, and said, “The number of chosen ones in this world is conserved. We call them the female lead and the male lead. If these two people die, then this world will begin to collapse.”

"And you, you are a time traveler, in other words, you are also the chosen one. After Mei Shengke dies, you will take her place and become the new female lead of this world."

"You will be the female lead until the next female lead is born. In order to maintain the stability of this world, according to the rules, I have no choice but to leave you here."

Deng Yin “.......”

The female lead... can there be a substitute?

If we can just change things whenever we want, so casually, then this world might as well be destroyed sooner rather than later.

“That’s not right,” Deng Yin suddenly realized, “If I’m the chosen one, why did I live such a poor life before? Was I on the path of poverty?”

"Oh, that..." Gou Dan waved his hand dismissively, "There are destined people in your world, you don't even make the list."

"........"

Ignoring Deng Yin's increasingly grim expression, Gou Dan continued, "You are now half a Chosen One only because of me. If you weren't from another world, you wouldn't even have a chance to be considered a Chosen One. But you can only be close to it in this world. Once you return to your world, you'll become an ordinary person again."

The more he talked, the calmer Deng Yin's expression became.

"That makes sense, so you're also half a Destiny System? Systems like yours that can't revert back to human form after turning into a human must be quite rare, right?"

"......"

That's certainly rare...

Seeing that the system remained silent, Deng Yin continued, "Do your systems also behave like humans? Do you eagerly share the deeds of all the outstanding systems, and even create sculptures to commemorate them? If so, then a system like yours would surely be depicted in a sculpture, wouldn't it?"

"By the way, can't you change your appearance at will? Then you must remember to use this face. Maybe I'll have a chance to see you again in the future, and if you use this face, I'll definitely be able to recognize you immediately."

Dog Egg: "......"

Deng Yin: Why aren't you saying anything?

Deng Yin looked completely sincere, not at all like he was being sarcastic.

But Gou Dan could tell that she was definitely angry.

She used to do this when she was angry; she would appear to be praising the other person, but in reality, she was just scolding them.

Dog Egg: "I'm hungry."

Deng Yin laughed, "What? Is being hungry affecting your speech?"

"Hmm." To prove that what he said was true, Gou Dan nodded quickly, then pretended to be a little dizzy from exerting too much force.

Dog Egg plopped down on the ground, his voice weak: "I'm too weak. Can you make me some food?"

Gou Dan, seizing the opportunity, immediately made the other party cook for him after provoking them.

Why does Deng Yin spoil him so much?

"No time, go cook two potatoes for yourself."

Deng Yin's expression was serious as he instructed, "Remember, I'm only giving you two potatoes. You're not allowed to use anything from my space again unless I give you permission."

Oh no, she's really angry; she won't even let me eat.
