Evolution Paradise, are you the disaster?

Chapter 530 In the Name of God: Adam, Abandoning Imagination

Amon made a startling statement, as if hunting the "Goddess of the Night" was as difficult as slaughtering a pig for the Lunar New Year in the countryside, and that he invited several strong adult men from the same village to help hold down the pig because he found it too troublesome.

It's fine if they don't help; Amon can use advanced technology and equipment in pig farms to stun the pigs. It'll just waste a little more time.

"My God!"

The blonde girl, Audrey, reacted with a sharp, explosive sound.

Her whole family were frivolous followers of the "Goddess of Night," so it would be strange if Audrey didn't react when she heard Amon openly declare that he wanted to hunt down the "Goddess of Night."

"Sir, please don't joke about matters of the gods!"

Audrey clutched her pounding heart; in just a few seconds, her heart rate and blood pressure nearly doubled.

"Miss Justice, why would I joke?"

Amon looked completely innocent, shrugging as he explained, "Just a 'Sequence 0 True God' still cultivating the 'Source Sequence System.' The deeper it cultivates, the more corrupted it becomes."

"The 'Sequence 0 - True God' account still has a chance to be reset, but the 'Goddess of the Night' account, having stepped into the 'Half-Old Ones,' is beyond saving."

First came the hunt for the "Goddess of the Night," then came the sharp commentary on "Sequence 0: True God."

Huang Tao guessed that the "magician's" true identity was Amon.

Klein, Audrey, and Alger all believe that the "Magician" is either a mad clown or a super ruthless figure who surpasses "Sequence 0: True God".

"I am only at Sequence 8, which disqualifies me from participating. I'm afraid I am powerless to accept His Majesty the Magician's invitation."

Alger Wilson, disregarding the unfolding situation, quickly declined Amon's invitation, extricating himself from the turmoil.

When you're poor, you should stay true to yourself. He decided that he absolutely could not report Amon's god-killing plan to the seven major righteous churches, otherwise he would never be able to explain himself no matter how many mouths he had.

Run! We have to run! Run as far as possible!
Regardless of whether Amon's plan to kill the god succeeds or not, the northern continent of the "material world" will become the center of the vortex.

Do what you can with your abilities. Alger plans to cross the Misty Sea and escape to a new world with sparse traces of civilization to avoid disaster.

Staying in the center of the storm is too dangerous; a slight misstep could result in death from the unknown AOE aftershocks of the divine battle.

There is still a glimmer of hope in escaping, and even if one faces the great pirates who roam the seas, it is still a future that one can control.

……

"Sequence 8... This aura... it belongs to the follower of 'Wind Angel,' that traitor who murdered his master."

Amon looked puzzled, then chuckled and said, "Mr. Hanged Man, running won't help."

"The 'Goddess of the Night' is just the first, but she certainly won't be the last."

"I have conflicts with quite a few of the seven scoundrels in the Church of the True God, and coincidentally, the so-called 'Lord of the Storms, Leodorus' is one of them."

"Lord of the Storms Leodorus," a "Wind Angel" from the eight archangel kings of the ancient sun god era, is considered an old colleague of Amon and Adam.

The Dark Angels, Wind Angels, Pure White Angels, and Cherubim betrayed the Ancient Sun God and conspired with the Redemption Rose organization, leading to the fall of the Ancient Sun God and the devouring of his former master's divine body.

During the Solomon dynasty, "Lord of the Storm Leodorus" and the traitors formed the Six Gods Alliance, which defeated the alliance of Amon, Adam, and "The First Black Emperor Solomon" who were in a state of account reset and rebuilding.

During the Four Emperors War, this guy joined forces with the "Goddess of Night" to remove the seal from Amon, who had been rebuilt to the fifth rank.

Amon, who used a clever trick, trained into the Sword God of Shili Slope and recently advanced to the sixth rank with exceptional skill.

Having mastered his divine skills, Amon emerged from seclusion and determined that there was no one left in the "material world" who could rival him. Only then did he establish the "Kill Me Company" to settle scores with his old enemies.

"Once I've killed the 'Goddess of Night,' it'll be time for that traitor, the 'Lord of Storms.'"

“Mr. Hanged Man, if you want to betray me, tell Leodorus to wash his neck and wait for me to kill him.”

Amon's calm tone carried an undeniable will.

"No! I will not betray you, Your Majesty the Magician."

Alger Wilson, weak, pitiful, and helpless, shook his head repeatedly.

"Boring."

Amon smiled casually, glancing sideways at the "Fool" whose aura was obscure and vaguely connected to this "Celestial Venerable's Dojo".

"And you, Mr. Fool?"

"You are very powerful. You must be a practitioner of the new path of 'Diviner's Path - Sequence 0 - Fool,' who abandoned the 'Source Sequence System,' ascended to the 'Void Realm,' and re-established contact with the 'Material Realm' through this means, right?"

Urgent! Urgent!
Klein, in his haste to win the lottery, picked a 'three-color ball' ball, but little did he know it was a super bomb!

"exactly."

Despite his inner turmoil, Klein, disguised as the "Fool," maintained a composed demeanor.

"The Abyss is dangerous; killing the 'Goddess of Night' is only a temporary solution."

Klein's vague use of riddle-solving techniques unsurprisingly attracted the attention of Amon and Huang Tao, preventing them from being exposed and facing social embarrassment on the spot.

The abyss, the goddess of night, the anomaly in the Kingdom of Rune...

Beyond this world, in the Abyss Realm, the Void Realm, the Material Realm...

Klein, whose undergraduate degree was genuine, worked at lightning speed. With the information inadvertently revealed by Amon, he pieced together the clues into a complete narrative.

'How strange!'

Huang Tao was puzzled, having met Klein, the one chosen by "Celestial Venerable," just a few hours ago.

Back then, Klein was just a clueless nobody with no extraordinary abilities, so why does he act so convincingly now?

'What exactly did the Celestial Venerable's legacy teach him?'

……

Maintaining an air of mystery, embodying the riddle master, Klein's superb acting skills, combined with information asymmetry and the added advantage of his "Celestial Venerable Dojo," not only fooled the complete stranger Amon but also successfully deceived Huang Tao.

"Your Excellency the Fool is right; killing the 'Goddess of Night' is merely a temporary fix."

"But that's enough. Lord Fool provides the platform for communication, Lord Magician is responsible for the temporary solution of killing the 'Goddess of Night,' and I'll take care of the fundamental solution of clearing away the chaos in the 'Material World.'"

Speculation is speculation, and helping is helping.

Huang Tao is a reliable person; even at this moment, he didn't forget to help Tian Zunxuan, the chosen one, to spread the flame.

Old Huang's self-disclosure drew attention, further reducing the likelihood that Ammon would become interested in getting to the bottom of things with Klein.

Amon asked in surprise, "Huh? It's you?"

Huang Tao calmly replied, "It is me. I am Huang Tao, a changemaker who is reshaping the world order."

In the exchange of questions and answers, the gazes of the two top combatants of the "Tarot Club" intersected, and Amon received a warning from Huang Tao.

'Interesting. Even without using the name "Emperor Roselle," he seems to have the intention of abandoning the "Source Sequence System."'

Amon doesn't care about these things; Amon only cares about having fun.

The more Huang Tao does this, the more he fabricates unofficial histories about "Emperor Rosell," pushing the reputation of "Emperor Rosell" down an abstract path from which there is no turning back.

'That's so interesting!'

Amon couldn't wait; he was eager to see what kind of amusing expression Huang Tao would have when he discovered the rampant unofficial history surrounding "Emperor Rosell."

"A change-maker? Then you have an opponent."

“My foolish brother has recently been spouting nonsense about ‘giving up daydreams and fighting resolutely.’”

Intelligent people know when to stop and keep their conversations brief.

Instead of exposing Huang Tao's true identity, Amon blatantly revealed the recent changes in "Dreamer Adam."

"Dreamer Adam," the "Dreamer Angel" of the Eight Archangel Kings during the time of the ancient Sun God, is now the leader of the Twilight Hermits.

Adam inherited the divinity from the ancient sun god and has been striving to resurrect him since the sun god's fall. More than ten hours ago, at the moment Klein awoke, "Dreamer Adam" received his third "chance encounter" from the "Void Realm".

The three "possible opportunities" have been decided, namely Klein, Huang Tao, and Adam.

Klein obtained the "Celestial Venerable Series" cheat code from the "Celestial Venerable Name".

Huang Tao has acquired the "potential of a human emperor," enabling him to deeply explore "civilization."

Adam's cheat ability falls somewhere between Klein's and Huang Tao's.

He can either use the "name of God" to restore the glory that belongs to "God" or abandon the "name of God" and embrace reform.

Adam reflected on his busy yet fruitless life, his wanderings solely for the purpose of resurrecting the ancient sun god. What did this bring to the world and civilization?
The answer is: Meaningless!
A meaningless life, meaningless actions, and the label of "dreamer" hanging on one's forehead is so ironic.

Thus, Adam attained enlightenment in Longchang.

Unrealistic utopianism cannot save the world.

Abandoning unrealistic dreams, we must be down-to-earth, forging ahead with determination, pioneering and innovating, and fighting to the very end against the demons and monsters that stand in our way. Only by burning away the filth with the prairie fire of reform that dares to transform the old world into a new one can we truly save the world!

Adam abandoned the unrealistic "dreamer" and transformed into a down-to-earth "doer".

Having abandoned even the "dreamer," how could the enlightened Adam choose the path of attributing the great power of "God's name" to the individual?

Adam distorted the understanding of "God" that should have pointed to "God Yahweh," turning it into "everyone is their own God," a "Meng Yi interpretation of the name of God" where one holds their own destiny and future in their own hands.

People's situations cannot be generalized; Adam's wealth was far greater than Huang Tao's, who was so poor that he resorted to theft.

While Huang Tao is still plotting to overthrow the Kingdom of Luen, "Adam the Pragmatist" has already spread the sparks of innovation in the "Material World - Western Continent".

Their differing ideologies led to different choices, which has nothing to do with right or wrong.

Huang Tao believed in himself, and Adam believed in like-minded people.

Who is right and who is wrong, who is right and who is wrong, can only be answered by the future.

……

"An opponent? I am not alone on this path!"

Huang Tao was not angry but delighted, and laughed heartily, "The situation is still uncertain, we are all on the road!"

“Miss Justice, you are in the capital of the Kingdom of Rune, so you should be aware of the recent changes in the Kingdom of Rune, right?”

"Mr. Hanged Man, would you like to join me in sweeping away the old decay?"

"This is a difficult and winding road, let's join hands to change this sick world!"

In high spirits, Huang Tao extended an invitation to Alger and Audrey.

Want extraordinary power? Easy! Want to change your destiny? Easy!

"The tides of the times are surging, and standing at the forefront of the times, our choices at least prove that there are still people trying to do something."

"This is the best of times, this is the worst of times, nothing could be worse than this. Anything that brings change is good."

A tarot reading session that was originally intended as a children's game of house was transformed into a job fair by Huang Tao's intervention.

"Hmm, my mind is a bit of a mess."

Audrey quickly reviewed the conversation between Amon, Huang Tao, and Klein.

"Mr. Fool, Mr. Magician, Mr. Emperor, are you saying that the 'Goddess of Night' has been corrupted by the Abyss, and that the changes in the Kingdom of Rune, and the entire world, are all due to this corruption from the Abyss?"

Huang Tao nodded: "Yes, the Abyss is the enemy of all things. Even a 'True God' is nothing in front of the Abyss."

"If you cannot stay true to yourself when you come into contact with the abyss, your self-awareness will be distorted beyond recognition by the abyss."

Distorting oneself?

Audrey pondered whether her father, and the other nobles of the Kingdom of Rune, had been corrupted by the "Goddess of the Night."
"This is what happened, my father..."

Such and such, such and such.

Audrey, who has good language skills, briefly explained her father's recent changes to Huang Tao, who seemed the most reliable person.

"Your Majesty, is there any hope for my father?"

Audrey gets straight to the point: saving her family or her faith in God—these are not equal options.

Audrey, who is not a fanatical follower of the "Goddess of Night" and whose perception has not yet been distorted by the abyss, would not hesitate to abandon her faith in the gods if her choice could save her family.

"These are typical signs of shallow abyssal corruption. There is still hope, but it's quite troublesome."

As fellow members of the Tarot Club, Huang Tao slightly halted his efficient and decisive method of killing to resolve the issue.

"Then I'll join!"

Yearning for the extraordinary and the mysterious, Audrey, in the midst of her adolescent rebellion, felt a heavy responsibility to save her family and decisively betrayed her privileged class to join Huang Tao's disruptive career.

In other words, Huang Tao didn't mention any specific actions, otherwise Audrey wouldn't have been so decisive upon hearing the action plan for "The Fall of the Goddess of the Night - Night of the Long Blade".

A naive and idealistic teenage girl, a deeply calculating and ambitious man—it's unbelievable that this young girl could outsmart Huang Tao.

"Mr. Hanged Man, and you?"

Huang Tao turned to look at the taciturn Alger Wilson.

In the early stages of a team's formation, every additional person brings more strength.

"I……"

Alger's eyes flickered as he respectfully inquired, "Your Majesty, how strong are you?"

Reality is not wishful thinking; everything requires sufficient strength to bear its weight.

"How strong?"

Huang Tao confidently stated, "I'm slightly inferior to Mr. Magician, but I'm no weaker than true gods like the 'Lord of Storms.'"

Old Huang's subtext was clear: He was a true god, a golden thigh, come and hug him!
"Your Majesty, thank you for your invitation. I accept!"

Alger Wilson, who was already an extraordinary being, had extremely mixed feelings when he was directly recruited by a true god.

"It's a wise choice. Don't call me 'Your Majesty,' call me 'Head of State.'"

Huang Tao pondered for a moment, then drew an inverted swastika symbol and handed it to the three recruits, Zhuge Liang and Feng Chu. With this symbol, the three of them could communicate offline as a rebel team.

"It's about time. From now on, we'll hold an exchange meeting every seven days at this time. I'm particularly interested in the development of the 'Material World,' and I'll be bringing new people here every week."

With his mental energy completely depleted and his mind reeling, Klein forced himself to stay alert.

"no problem."

"Hey, good."

"As it should be."

Goodnight, Mr. Fool.

……

The first Tarot Club was a complete success.

Amon finds new enjoyment, Huang Tao acquires two oxen and horses, and Audrey and Alger are able to change their fate.

What? Klein?
After a busy night, Xiao Ke was left with both mental exhaustion and a completely empty wallet, earning him the nickname "Fool," and nothing else.

Hiding in the bathroom, Klein hunched over in despair and groaned, "I shouldn't have tried to put on a brave face!"
