Chapter 41

Holding the talisman that controlled transcendent power, and facing the assault of the Black Hand organization and the Shadow Legion sent by the sealed Demon Lord, the psychological pressure was immense.

He couldn't tell his family or friends about this psychological pressure, but he could vent it in the guild chat room.

FallenAngelTwelveWingsBlackCatClan: "Leader, you said the Twelve Talismans contain immense power—so now that you've obtained the Rooster Talisman, you must have gained some transcendent power too, right? With such transcendent power, you can't possibly be considered an ordinary person anymore."

ChengLongDoesntWantToDoArchaeology: "…"

ChengLongDoesntWantToDoArchaeology: "What you said makes sense. Holding the Rooster Talisman—or finding the next talismans—should grant me transcendent power! But ultimately, the Twelve Talismans aren't mine, and if they're kept with me and someone steals them, it could cause catastrophic consequences! So I turned them over to the state."

FallenAngelTwelveWingsBlackCatClan: "???"

What the hell, you turned them over to the state? You're really something.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Didn't I say so? Just give me the Twelve Talismans. I'm not from your world—after obtaining them, I'd never use them for evil, since my own power is already equal to, even superior to, the talismans. I'm just intrigued by the nature of their power."

ChengLongDoesntWantToDoArchaeology: "Let me think about it some more!"

Su Xiao Xiao: "…"

Su Xiao Xiao: "Fine! Think it over yourself. I know you want to turn the talismans over to the state and seal them in Area 52, thinking it's safe. But you must know one thing—even Area 52 isn't perfect."

Su Xiao Xiao: "In the future I know of, your Area 52 has been stolen from more than once—even the Demon Lord once regained true resurrection by seizing the talisman power from your Area 52."

ChengLongDoesntWantToDoArchaeology: "????"

What the hell? Sealed in Area 52, and still stolen more than once?

I turned the talismans over to the U. S. government—how incompetent is the U. S. government? Losing things once is bad enough, but multiple times?

Su Xiao Xiao: "Cheng Long, the U. S. can't be trusted. Think carefully."

Cheng Long began to waver—he suddenly thought that if Area 52 truly couldn't properly protect the Twelve Talismans, handing them to Su Han might not be a bad decision.
