Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 128 Let Xiao Ke be the Red Angel Assistant

Luo Lin: ...

That’s right, Ouroboros’s character is definitely impossible to write, and everyone in the Aurora Club is a silly beauty, so this job falls on Medici.

After all, "unhappy" is more reliable than "stupid" and "naive".

However, Rowling guessed that this was also the first time for Medici to do this kind of clerical work. He looked as impatient as a college student when he was rushing to finish a paper. He probably had to think out the words one by one.

I can’t say I can’t write, but I definitely don’t want to write.

"Poor kid!" Rowling looked at Medici with pity. In the past, this kind of clerical work must have been done by more professional people. During the Apollo period, it was probably Sasriel and the wise old dragon. During the Solomon period, the real creator cooperated with Solomon, and he had many talented people under his command, so Medici only needed to concentrate on fighting.

It’s different now. No one with brains is left, so the Red Angel has to carry the banner.

When Rowling thought that Medici might be responsible for most of the practical and clerical work of the change, he felt a little pity for him for a moment.

You have to know that change is never an easy thing. It is not like a foreign invasion, and it is not a problem that can be solved by the ancient sun god killing all enemies.

The ancient sun god might be able to beat up the seven gods and force angel families like Augustus to issue new policies, but what would be the use?
It is not uncommon to hear people pretending to obey something but actually disobeying it. People who are used to being exploited will not change easily because of a new policy. They may not even take the law seriously, and the exploited people are unlikely to really believe in these policies.

In the final analysis, this society is sick, and the cause may be traced back to the biggest exploiters like Augustus, but this does not mean that there are no other exploiters besides them. In fact, for the people at the bottom, even a small manager in a factory may be the one who exploits them.

Could it be that the ancient sun god could kill all these people?
Even if He wanted to force these policies, He couldn't monitor the entire world 24 hours a day, couldn't care about every single person in the world, or even if He could directly change a Backlund, there were many places in this world that He couldn't directly reach.

No matter how powerful the ancient sun god is, there is only one of him. Even if you add the other people in the Creator's camp, it is still a drop in the bucket in the eyes of the whole world. Even if you pull in the major churches, the church does not have enough manpower. There is a shortage of people in various extraordinary events on a daily basis, so how can they spare more people to deal with other things?

We can't just ignore extraordinary events just because we want to change, right?
Therefore, it is impossible for them alone to achieve the transformation of the entire world. The military strength of the ancient sun god and others is indeed a strong guarantee for achieving change, but the power of the people themselves is more important.

If we want to truly make effective changes, we must let the exploited people stand up on their own, learn to resist, let them learn to control their own destiny, learn to say no to oppression, and let the exploited people know that they are not exploiting obedient lambs. Only then will they be afraid and stop.

The ancient sun god can help them stand up, help them withstand the pressure from above, teach them how to use strength and weapons, and give them courage and encouragement, but he can never stand up for them.

One must first become his own savior before he can have a truly bright life.

To achieve this, it will undoubtedly require tremendous effort, and first of all, ideological guidance must keep up.

Furthermore, reform doesn't end with just getting people back on their feet. Even more challenging than destruction is the reconstruction process afterward. How to ensure the livelihoods of the majority of people, how to achieve a positive social cycle, and so on—all these issues must be considered. This is also why Luo Lin refuses to directly participate in reform—it's too much trouble, so he's better off leaving it to the professionals!
Luo Lin doesn't mind pushing from the side and can provide military support when necessary, but don't expect him to do more.

"What are you looking at?" Medici felt even more annoyed when he saw the undisguised "pity" expression on Rowling's face.

"I just want to provide you with a little help." Luo Lin blinked and said calmly.

"Huh?" Medici raised an eyebrow, twirled the pen in his hand, and fixed his red eyes on Luo Lin. "What's up? You, the lamplighter, finally have a change of heart?"

"You actually know this too? Did the Sun God teach you that?" Luo Lin looked at Medici with a hint of surprise, then said dissatisfiedly, "And what do you mean by a change of heart? I've always been a very conscientious businessman."

"Tsk!" Medici made a "tsk" sound, but he couldn't refute it. No matter how sarcastic he was, even the Red Angel had to admit that Rowling was indeed a guy with a conscience.

He glanced at Luo Lin and said, "Tell me, what are you planning?"

"I'm just going to recommend an assistant for you," Rowling said, nudging Klein, who was curiously eating melons beside him. "If you want to write your speech, you can ask Sherlock for some advice."

After Rowling finished speaking, he looked at Klein and said, "Sherlock, you wouldn't mind giving Xiaohong some small suggestions on the transformation, right?"

Klein was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I don't mind helping. Although I have some experience, it can probably only serve as a reference..."

Klein naturally didn't mind offering some help with the reforms. This was something no one raised under the red flag would refuse. However, Klein himself couldn't be considered an expert in the field. He could only say that he knew a little bit—after all, his political education classes weren't in vain, and his time as a keyboard warrior wasn't in vain.

However, this does not mean that Klein's experience can be forcibly applied to today's Loen society. After all, the situation is different, so it can only be used as a rough reference.

"Him?" Medici's gaze fell on Klein, his expression filled with suspicion.

It's not that he looked down on this little guy, it's just that this thing can never be done without a certain level of skill. If Medici had not followed the sun god before, he would not understand what kind of world the Lord wants, and he would not know how to do it.

"Give it a try. It won't take you much time." Rowling said this, then changed the subject and said, "But since I'm helping you, I must be paid. After all, Sherlock has his own things to do and can't work for you for nothing."

There was no other way. Master Luo, who was originally scheduled to challenge Klein, would most likely not come again because his wonderful idea died midway. Rowling had to make it up to Klein. It was a good opportunity for him to write speeches for Medici, so he could make a living by his own ability.
