Mystery: Chaos Path

#193 - Give you a chance to arrange me

If Klein were here at this moment, he would definitely resonate with Amon, because he was also frequently chilled by the pun-filled jokes told by "Jack Jones," and even repeatedly wanted to say "Shut up," but refrained because he didn't want to hurt Jack's feelings.

Unfortunately, Klein wasn't here, so Amon ultimately bore it all alone.

However, Amon was clearly not one to be trifled with. After a brief silence, He seemed to have caught onto some keywords and said with interest, "'Ba-ge?' It does sound very similar to a bug my father mentioned, but I think they probably don't mean the same thing."

"Indeed, they don't mean the same thing. The former is a newly coined word combining 'dad' and 'older brother,' while the meaning of the latter should be self-explanatory," Lawlin said with a smile.

"These seem to be two different languages?" Amon asked immediately after, with a hint of probing.

"Of course, they are not the same language, but don't expect to get more knowledge about the former from me. There's some knowledge I can't just casually share with you." Lawlin looked at Amon with a smile, then suddenly changed the subject, saying, "But I can teach you your father's language."

As a trickster with many personas, Lawlin naturally knew multiple languages, and Russian was one of them.

Amon was taken aback for a moment. He didn't understand the language of the Ancient Sun God's homeland; at most, he could only say a few words. Therefore, Lawlin's offer was indeed somewhat tempting to Amon.

However, Amon didn't rush to agree. He simply raised his hand and pinched the monocle on his face, saying, "Then what should I pay?"

He didn't think he could get any advantage from Lawlin.

"Did the Sun God have the habit of writing a diary?" Lawlin didn't answer Amon's question, but asked with interest.

Amon was stunned upon hearing this, then shook his head after briefly recalling for about a second, saying, "Father didn't have the habit of writing a diary."

"Tsk, I didn't expect the Sun God, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, to actually be such an upright person." Lawlin clicked his tongue in disappointment, then suddenly raised his hand and snapped his fingers, shielding everyone else in the room, before looking at Amon with a smile and saying, "What I want is very simple. Amon, you should have avatars all over the world, right?"

Amon nodded upon hearing this. Although the actions of Rodtkey and others a few days ago had caused Him to lose many characteristics, most of Amon's avatars had not been retrieved and were still scattered across the northern and southern continents, only the powerful avatars were fewer.

"What I want is very simple, just help me spread these stories within the range of your avatars' influence." Lawlin smiled and took out a small booklet from his pocket, handing it to Amon.

Amon took the booklet, opened it, and found that it contained several very classic short stories, somewhat like folk legends. The stories mainly revolved around protagonists encountering danger and injustice, then meeting a mysterious man named "Lucifer," from whom they received a "prophecy," and after experiencing various twists and turns, they fought against the source of the danger and achieved victory.

What was intriguing was that the image of Lucifer in these stories was not entirely positive, and it could even be said that in most stories, the existence of "Lucifer" was like an amused bystander. He was not merciful, and He only helped the protagonists in order to better observe the development of the situation.

It had to be said that this was very much in line with Amon's impression of Lucifer.

"These are templates, you can fill them with different content according to the different customs of different regions." Lawlin said with a smile. He unhurriedly picked up his black tea and took a sip before looking at Amon and saying:

"How about it, very cost-effective, right? You can learn your father's language from me and have a chance to orchestrate me."

This wasn't a sudden idea of Lawlin's. In fact, after advancing to Sequence 6, Avatar, in order to make the Lucifer persona land as soon as possible, Lawlin had a series of plans in his mind after his advancement. Saving Silver City to obtain Silver City's faith was one, providing a force to the Revolution to continue their speeches was one, and taking a broad-net-and-many-fish route, widely promoting the stories of Lucifer, was also one.

The former could cultivate high-quality "zealots," while the latter focused on quantity, aiming to catch someone who believed as long as enough people knew.

It was just that Lawlin hadn't figured out which sucker to fool into doing this before, but now he suddenly realized that Amon was the most suitable workhorse.

As for whether Amon would cause trouble in the process, Lawlin wasn't worried. Although the transformation of a persona from illusory to real required enough people to believe in his existence, and it seemed that the persona itself was constructed by the cognition of the crowd, the cognition of the crowd would not conversely affect the persona. Misaligned cognition would at most lead to invalid cognition or a reduced effect of belief.

With Silver City and the Revolution both being okay, even if the broad-net-and-many-fish route was really ineffective, Lawlin would at most spend more time promoting the persona, but Amon would have to pay the price for His actions.

"As expected of you, you're clearly asking me for help, but it sounds like I'm the one taking advantage." Amon raised his hand and pinched the monocle on his face, saying with a sigh. He looked at Lawlin and said, "I roughly understand why Medici and the others are willing to do things for you."

"I'm just used to win-win situations. After all, there's a big difference between having people willingly do things for you and forcing others to do things for you." Lawlin showed a gentle and bright smile, "If it can be a win-win, why not?"

"…I can't refute that." Amon laughed, then nodded and said, "I can help you spread these stories, but I'm very curious, what are you planning to do? If it's for believers, this is probably not a good way to gain faith."

Although faith is not the only way to generate anchors, enough fear is also feasible, but simply knowing and understanding usually cannot generate anchors, otherwise there would be no battles for faith.

"Guess?" Lawlin didn't answer, just looked at Him with a smile.

"Alright, it seems to be something I can't know." Amon shrugged his shoulders very sensibly and didn't ask any further.

Lawlin also ignored Him, he picked up his black tea and took a sip, his movements suddenly paused.

"What's wrong?" Amon looked over with curiosity and inquiry.

"It's nothing, I just think that since the conversation is over, it's time to remove the shielding…" Lawlin shook his head, snapped his fingers with a "snap," removed the shielding from the others, and saw that everyone in Silver City was burying their heads in their food, and Danitz, although absent-minded, was also trying to eat, and he nodded in satisfaction.

Then Lawlin also lowered his head and started eating, while simultaneously transferring most of his energy to the persona "Jack Jones."
