Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 164: The Sun God and the God-Forsaken Land
The ancient sun god looked at the continent shrouded in darkness before him, and suddenly felt a sense of time dislocation. This feeling had actually occurred when he was first summoned to the future, but it had never been as clear as it was today.

In his time, the Eastern Continent was still the center of the world. The ancient Sun God established his kingdom on this continent. He had even inspected the land before him not long ago.

The ancient sun god remembered the city-states on this land at that time, and also remembered the enthusiastic and hardworking people. He remembered that at the end of his sight was a flower garden. Every spring when flowers bloomed, all kinds of flowers competed for beauty in the flower garden. His believers would select the best flowers and offer them as a sacrifice to him. He also remembered the blue and white butterfly that happened to land on his shoulder when he walked through this flower garden.

These memories are still clear and have not faded, but now all the ancient sun god sees are the ruins of buildings, monsters ready to move, and lightning that appears from time to time in the sky.

The ancient sun god suddenly remembered a long time ago when he had just awakened from the chaotic sea. It was the same at that time. It seemed like just a blink of an eye, and the world had changed drastically. He lost everything familiar, awakened in an unfamiliar era, and then began to work non-stop to save mankind.

And now, because of Rowling's magical ability, he opened his eyes in the future. The once familiar East Continent has now become a ruin, and the people he liberated from the extraordinary race have fallen into a new round of oppression.

"It feels like you've wasted a whole version of your game in the blink of an eye, right? I get you, it's the same for me. The world I just saved has to be saved again in the blink of an eye."

Luo Lin's voice echoed nearby, a rare hint of melancholy in his voice. He sighed and said, "The worst part is that you defeat the final boss of the previous version, only to find out that the final boss of this version is actually a different you. It's so unbelievable."

The Ancient Sun God's original feeling of emotion and melancholy was suddenly interrupted. He paused for a moment before looking at Luo Lin beside him and said, "I didn't think you wanted to save the world."

Although people always say nonsense like "Rowling is very gentle by nature" and "Rowling is a good boy", the ancient sun god is half a god after all, and has the authority of the audience channel, so how can he not see Rowling's attitude on certain things.

"I certainly don't want to save the world, but sometimes it's just forcing things!" Rowling spread his hands, not caring whether the ancient sun god would hear anything from him, and said.

"I can't just watch my world destroyed. After all, I still have some feelings. Fortunately, I have you now, so I don't have to be the savior!" At the end, Luo Lin looked at the ancient sun god with a smile.

The Ancient Sun God glanced at Luo Lin and then revealed a gentle smile. He did not deny Luo Lin's words. He just looked at Luo Lin seriously and said, "I will save my world, no matter what the cost."

Luo Lin naturally heard the implication of the ancient sun god's words - He would stop anyone who wanted to destroy the world, including Luo Lin.

Luo Lin was neither surprised nor concerned. He smiled and said, "I believe you can do it. So let's go, Mr. Apollo. Before saving the world, let's go save Silver City first."

The Ancient Sun God glanced at Luo Lin, nodded gently, and the two began to hurry on their way - to be more precise, the Ancient Sun God took Luo Lin with him on his way, and by the way, he was also carrying a medium with a built-in alien space.

Because the God-Forsaken Land was isolated from the spirit world, traveling or other methods of interacting with it were impossible. However, just as Amon could shorten travel time by stealing distance, for a semi-Ancient like the Ancient Sun God, reaching Silver City in a short period of time was naturally not difficult. While the Ancient Sun God was making his way, in the alien space, Klein was observing a familiar Nighthawk.

That's right. This Night Watchman who looked familiar to Klein was naturally Leonard, who had originally received special training with the Red Gloves at the Tranquility Church. Because he arrived in such a hurry, Leonard didn't even take off his clothes or even his iconic red gloves, making it clear at a glance that he was an official Beyonder of the Church of Evernight.

While Klein was looking at Leonard, Leonard was frowning and looking in the direction of another person, which was exactly where Mr. A was.

As the first official member of the Fun Club, Mr. A naturally participated in this Fun Club event. At this moment, he was squatting in the corner as quietly as a mushroom, praying to the real creator in his mouth, and looking cautiously to the side from time to time.

Standing next to Mr. A was the angel of destiny Ouroboros, who was the main force of the anti-Meng operation. At this moment, Ouroboros was standing in front of an easel, holding a paintbrush in his right hand, apparently painting something.

Standing next to the Angel of Fate Ouroboros is Medici. The Red Angel is chewing an apple in one hand, presumably to implement the principle of "an apple a day keeps the doctor away." The other hand is coiled with the Conqueror attribute, as if playing with a toy.

A little further away from the two, Renette Tinicole stood quietly, like a real coconut tree. Behind the coconut tree stood Maric, a little embarrassed, and Sharon, who was as quiet as a doll.

However, the seemingly quiet coconut tree and the puppet master and apprentice were obviously cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and loved to watch the fun. At this moment, they couldn't help but prick up their ears to listen to the conversation between Azik and Rowling wearing Jack's vest next to them.

"So, Mr. Azik, during your time as the Archon of Death, you read Mr. Men's works?" Luo Lin looked at Azik with shining eyes, almost impatiently asking, "Do you still remember the contents of those works?"

"I still remember some of it, but some of it is less clear. I may need to wait until my memory recovers further before I can recall it." Azik replied gently. He even smiled and added, "If you really want, Jack, I can try to write down what I remember."

"Mr. Azik, you are such a good man!" Rowling gave Azik the good guy card without hesitation.

"It's just a small thing within my ability. Jack, you have helped me a lot, and I also want to do my best to help you get what you want." Azik obviously didn't think there was anything wrong with it and smiled gently.

"Azik, that's great!" Rowling gave Azik a thumbs-up and looked at Klein beside him. Seeing that Klein was still looking at Leonard, he immediately reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Why are you so engrossed? Are you a jerk?"
