Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 275: Rowling and Adam: What is Humanity?

Luo Lin, wearing the Lucifer vest, spoke at this time: "Since you will be playing Medici later, in order to make the performance more realistic, you should learn from Medici for the rest of the day."

After saying that, Rowling glanced at Medici, and his meaning was very clear.

"I see. You only knew to ask me to take care of the child. Am I really some kind of nanny?" Medici rolled his eyes in annoyance. He then looked at Klein and said, "I'll tell you the key points of my role later. Do your best and don't embarrass me."

Upon hearing this, Klein nodded quickly and said, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Medici."

Luo Lin, wearing the Lucifer vest, looked at little Amon again with a more serious look, and said, "Since you have chosen to go there with Klein, then stay with him and learn what human nature is. I don't want to see you again in a while and find that you are still a little Amon without empathy."

Then Rowling looked at Klein and said, "Little Amon will be in your care from now on, Klein."

"I will take good care of little Amon, Mr. Lucifer." Klein nodded quickly.

Luo Lin didn't say anything else.

The people who had gathered dispersed at this point. Klein and Little Amon followed Medici to learn about the precautions after arriving at the border city. Azik continued compiling the Holy Codex, while "Jack" and Will handled the personnel transformation of the Spiritual Cult...

The room that was bustling just a moment ago was suddenly filled with only Rowling and Adam, who were wearing Lucifer vests.

"It's rare to see you show up so openly. What's the matter?" Rowling looked at Adam and asked with interest.

Although Adam was always by his side, he usually did not show up in the past, just like air. But today, he made his presence felt.

"I just want to talk to you about the Eternal Blazing Sun." Adam looked at Luo Lin with his golden eyes, and said with a gentle smile, "Is it convenient?"

"What's inconvenient for me? Let's talk!" Luo Lin smiled. He then slowly brewed a pot of black tea, poured a cup for himself and Adam, and said, "What do you want to know?"

Asking him if it was inconvenient but not speaking proactively, it was obvious that Adam wanted to find out something.

"Will Osekus survive in the future?" Adam asked directly without any hesitation.

Luo Lin took a sip of his tea after hearing this. He looked up at the sun outside the window and said with a smile, "I thought you would hate Him. After all, He betrayed you."

"Why should I hate Him? He is just a poor man like me." Adam said calmly. He lowered his eyes and there seemed to be a sigh in his eyes.

"It seems that you know His situation very well." Luo Lin smiled. He knew why Adam said that. Just as the Primordial awakened in the body of the ancient sun god, the same was true for the Eternal Sun in the Third Age. In fact, many times He could not control His own behavior and lived completely under the control of God.

"He is one of the people I trust most. Otherwise, why would I entrust the sun to him?" Adam finally sighed and said, "Unfortunately, this seems to have brought him unbearable suffering." "So God is indeed the culprit of all tragedies!" Luo Lin said with emotion. He looked at Adam and said, "If you want to ask about the original fate, then I can tell you clearly that the sun fell. Osekus refused to bow to God and chose to fall."

Adam lowered his eyes again. It was hard to tell what he was thinking at this moment.

Finally, He said, "I told Him long ago that pride can lead to failure, but He always refused to listen to me."

Luo Lin looked at Him and suddenly said, "But you are still proud of Him."

"I should be proud of Him." Adam raised his eyes, a complex emotion in his golden pupils. Then, these complex emotions faded away. He looked at Luo Lin and asked, "God chose the Outer Gods, right?"

"You are very smart." Luo Lin smiled and did not deny it.

"I've only anticipated this. Tianzun and God, neither of them has any feelings for this world. They are both our enemies. The only difference is that Tianzun has such a bad character that no Outer God is willing to believe him. Even if he awakens, he will become hostile to the Outer Gods. From this point of view, Tianzun's awakening is not something to be feared. But God..." Adam frowned at this point and said:
"He's too mysterious and too smart. He knows so much. I even suspect he's already seen all of this... He's a terrifying enemy. The most terrifying thing is his reputation. As the most powerful notary public, no Outer God would refuse to cooperate with him if he wanted to."

"That's why you have to suppress Him!" Luo Lin smiled at this moment. He looked at Adam as if he were looking at a deceased soul. "Imaginary humanity cannot suppress God. You must use real humanity to gain a glimmer of hope in that war."

Adam didn't seem surprised by this. His golden eyes met Luo Lin's and he said, "That's why I need your help, Mr. Lucifer. Please help me."

"I've always been helping you, haven't I?" Luo Lin smiled at him, then shook his head. "But on the path of humanity, I'm only a beginner. If you truly want to better understand humanity, then go and look. Look at each of those thousand faces, look at those beings you almost sacrificed. They will question your heart and help you better understand what humanity is."

“This may be a bitter journey, but it is exactly the kind of journey you need to cleanse the divinity and madness from your soul.”

Everyone's humanity is different. Some people's humanity shines because of their family, such as Azik, while others care more about all living beings, such as the ancient sun god.

Adam once lost his humanity. Although He has regained that little bit of humanity now, He still has a long way to go before it is fully recovered.

"...I understand. I will do that." Adam nodded, seemingly realizing something. Then, as if realizing something, he looked at Luo Lin and asked, "What about you? Mr. Lucifer, how are you searching for humanity?"

"Me?" Luo Lin was stunned for a moment. He then smiled and thought for a few seconds before looking at Adam and saying, "Of course it's you!"

"I observe you and learn from you what humanity is. I consider you my friends and enrich humanity through the emotions we share with you. I help you rediscover your humanity, and in the process, I further understand what humanity is."

Luo Lin paused here, then looked at Adam and said, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Lucifer." Adam lowered his eyes and said.
