Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 249 Talking about Cooperation with Heiye

If that's really the case... can such an operation be replicated on the ancient sun god?
Luo Lin felt that this might be a good idea. After all, the problem of the ancient sun god was quite similar to that of Azik. Both had their souls split into two, and both had the worry that XX had awakened in their bodies.

The difference is that as a part that also carries human nature, Azik has washed away all his madness and restored his nature at the cost of his soul time and time again, while the real creator does not have this condition and can only resist.

As for the part that carries divinity... Luo Lin thought of the artificial god of death, then thought of Adam, and suddenly smiled. He sighed in his heart: "Apart from whether they have self-awareness, what is the difference between them! Even..."

Can what Adam possessed really still be called self-awareness?
An existence without emotions, who cares neither about himself nor the people around him, and whose purpose of doing everything is to ensure the survival of the Earth... Rowling's gaze suddenly fell on the Archon of Death, and he couldn't help but smile.

"Isn't this exactly the same?"

If the Archon of Death is a hollow puppet made by the god of death, then isn't Adam also a hollow puppet made by the ancient sun god?

The former was made into a resurrection vessel and a tool to govern the country diligently, while the latter was a pure salvation machine.

The ancient sun god is such a noble and cruel being, even towards himself... Luo Lin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"What do you mean exactly the same?" The Archon of Death looked at him puzzledly and asked.

"Don't worry about it. I just suddenly thought of a friend. He is very similar to you. Both are hollow dolls without self." Luo Lin explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the Archon of Death showed a hint of curiosity, so he asked, "Does He have a self now?"

"I hope He can have it, but actually, it's hard to say." Rowling shook his head. Although he put a mask on Adam early on and once guided the other's emotions through various behaviors, it is still difficult to say how much self Adam has now.

In terms of progress, he might not be as good as the Archon of Death.

"That sounds like a pity." The Archon of Death seemed a little regretful.

Although He Himself does not have much of a self, the Archon of Death still hopes that beings similar to Him can have a self, which would make Him feel a little comforted.

"I feel it's a pity too." Luo Lin smiled, then looked at Azik and said, "During the time you were integrating your memories, I asked the Archon of Death to do something..."

Luo Lin then briefly explained the matter of the Death Archon's recent divine punishment on the Spiritual Cult's non-recyclable waste. Finally, he looked at Azik and said:
"The Spiritual Cult is currently in a state of great turmoil. If you can officially step forward before the turmoil ends, the difficulty of regaining control of the Spiritual Cult will probably be minimized."

"Azik, do you wish to attack the Spirit Cult now?"

Azik wore a thoughtful expression. He didn't immediately agree or refuse. He simply said, "Although my strength has recovered 2%, I'm only a Sequence after all... Even with the oracle and divine punishment backing me up, others might not dare to test me. But Pale Queen Shia will never give in easily. Even if I truly merged with the Oneness of the God of Death, she wouldn't bow down directly."

"It's okay, Azik. I will assist you in reclaiming the Spirit Cult. I'll take care of Xiya. You just need to make good use of your role as the Archon of Death and deal with the rest of the Spirit Cult."

Luo Lin smiled and said, of course he knew that the Pale Queen would not bow down to Azkhna, but it didn't matter, even the most stubborn person would be obedient after a few beatings, this had been verified in the original fate.

"Then I'm fine." Azik nodded. The only person he was worried about was the Pale Queen. Anyone else, even Haitel, a Sequence 2, would be easy for Azik to deal with. After all, he was once the Archon of Death, the most cherished offspring of the Hades. Even though this identity brought Azik many hardships, it was not without its benefits.

"When do we start?" Azik simply asked.

"Don't be in a hurry. Let the chaos within the Spiritual Cult ferment for another two days. We also need to make some preparations to completely take over the Spiritual Cult." Luo Lin said.

Taking over an ancient organization with a history of more than a thousand years is not an easy task. Even with the orthodoxy of Azik, as long as all the opponents are beaten, the remaining members of the Spirit Cult will basically be wiped out. But this does not mean that the rest of the tasks will be easy.

On the contrary, if one is strong enough and has Azik, retaking the Spirit Cult is the easiest thing to do. The real trouble lies in how to transform this group of recyclable garbage and arrange them in the right position to play their role.

After all, what Rowling wants is not to kill them all, but a group of useful tools.

"We also have to be wary of non-recyclable garbage causing trouble. Although we've already cleaned up a batch this time, which has served as a warning to others and should keep most people in line, once Azik takes over the Spiritual Cult, some of these people might actually want to leave. It's fine if they leave, but if they mess around after leaving, that would be a bad thing..."

Luo Lin thought about this and looked at the Archon of Death, saying, "Xiao Zhi, I may need to ask you for something else later."

Rowling himself is unable to take care of all the members of the Spirit Cult, but the Archon of Death is different. He can call upon the unique power of the God of Death and can, to a certain extent, rely on bugs to replace the God of Death. Then, he can monitor anyone who has established contact with the God of Death.

For this reason, having the Archon of Death to suppress the initial chaos is the best option.

"Okay." The Archon of Death didn't ask what it was, but just nodded.

Luo Lin then considered some possibilities and made some arrangements. Suddenly, he muttered to himself with some emotion:

"Alas, in a sense, the Spiritual Cult is truly inferior to the Aurora Society. At least the silly beauties are all fanatical believers. If the True Creator says east, they won't go west. If the True Creator says to do good, they will immediately become saints. The Spiritual Cult is much more complicated."

Although the Spirit Cult still openly believes in the God of Death, and even most of its members probably do believe in the God of Death, seeing that Xia, the Pale Queen, can openly become the leader of the Royal Faction, it is clear that everyone's belief in the God of Death is actually just that.

This is both a good thing and a bad thing. Fortunately, someone like Azik has the buff and the strength to back him up, so he can easily take the position without being strongly resisted by the old guard.

The bad thing is that within a religious group with impure beliefs, there will inevitably be a certain number of people who try to take advantage of the situation. These people put their own interests first, and when their own interests are harmed, it will become a problem.

"Fortunately, the problem is not big, and having many people with ideas is not entirely a bad thing. At least there will be more people who can be used. Silly beauty... is silly after all." Luo Lin shook his head, suddenly thought of something, and smiled.

"Compared to the Spiritual Cult, I'm actually more curious about how the Night will react after this is over..."

In fact, Luo Lin really wanted to meet the Goddess of Night. Firstly, he wanted to check in and take a picture, and secondly, he wanted to talk about cooperation with this old coin with complicated plans.

When it comes to friends, Luo Lin never complains about having too many.
