Chapter 216: Lynn's Plan

Lynn immediately looked at Sasrir with a gaze of disappointment, as if he were a top-level corporate slave.

When Sasrir noticed Lynn's gaze, he felt somewhat guilty and quickly continued to share his views and opinions.

It had to be said that when it came to the divinity, followers, and anchor points, Sasrir's knowledge was evidently richer than Lynn's. He quickly put forward many meaningful suggestions—mostly ways to help the True Creator spread faith and stabilize Anchors. Sasrir was indeed a man who single-handedly supported the entire divine kingdom's operations; he clearly had considerable insight into missionary work.

Listening to Sasrir's various opinions, Lynn recalled the faith situation of the True Creator within the Solomon Empire, and he fell silent.

Now he was certain that although the True Creator of the Fourth Epoch appeared much more normal than in the Fifth Epoch, he was ultimately already mad.

Otherwise, Sasrir, who was so skilled at missionary work that he could practically run an entire church on his own, would not have been so ineffective in spreading faith after becoming the True Creator, relying purely on the self-motivation of followers.

Although the Solomon Empire had many followers of the True Creator, it was purely because of the True Creator's significant reputation. There wasn't a proper missionary organization; there were many small groups believing in the True Creator, but few amounted to anything significant.

The True Creator hadn't even established a formal church to become Solomon's official second-largest faith.

Even if this was out of consideration for Solomon's existence, it was still quite absurd!

'However, it doesn't seem surprising. After all, the True Creator has already gone mad. Maintaining his sanity is already the limit; clearly, he can't consider all these detailed matters. As long as he has enough followers, he probably wouldn't pay attention to this aspect. And if the number of followers is insufficient…' Lynn thought, stroking his chin:

'It would likely lead to the same vicious cycle as in the Fifth Epoch. The True Creator lacked followers to the point of madness in the Fifth Epoch, yet he didn't develop more followers, just causing trouble. Only the Aurora Order and the Iron and Blood Cross Order were left, with possibly a few other small groups. How could those few people be enough?'

'Especially from the situation after Anderson infiltrated the Iron and Blood Cross Order, it's hard to say how many traitors are mixed among the True Creator's followers. The followers of the True Creator are also insane, ignoring this matter completely.' The more Lynn thought about it, the more he felt that the True Creator's faith situation was worrying.

'No wonder the True Creator went mad enough to discard even his image in the Fifth Epoch.'

'Wait, despite being so mad, the Aurora Order members were all handsome men and beautiful women. Did they engrave their obsession with looks into their DNA?'

Lynn couldn't help but glance at the incredibly handsome Sasrir, shaking his head with a heavy expression, saying, "I didn't expect you to be like this, Sasrir."

Sasrir: ?

Sasrir felt confused again, looking at the boy in front of him. Sometimes, he really felt that he couldn't understand what Lynn was thinking.

Perhaps this was the generation gap between adults and children!

Lynn then recalled the useful talents around the True Creator, instantly feeling that the chaotic state of faith within the Solomon Empire was normal.

'The only angels around the True Creator who could speak up seem to be Ouroboros and Medici. Ouroboros has a rather grounded personality and wouldn't think of proactively doing these things without the True Creator's instructions, spending all year by the True Creator's side painting, praying, or occasionally chasing after the little snake.'

'Medici specializes in conspiracies and wars. His Red Army did provide a stable batch of believers for the True Creator, but he was cooked in a hotpot by Tudor and Adam and has just been resurrected…'

Lynn suddenly realized that Adam's intent in killing Medici might not only be to prevent the True Creator's faction from becoming too powerful in combat, but also to eliminate the brain of the operation.

After all, with Medici, the faith situation of the True Creator might still have been manageable. Even if Little Red wasn't specialized in this area, at least he had a brain and could cooperate with Ouroboros to cultivate stable believers and anchor points for the True Creator.

With Medici gone, the True Creator's followers completely lost their brain, and it would be strange if the faith situation didn't deteriorate.

Moreover, faith is limited; more believers for one god means fewer for another. Even though the Black Emperor Solomon was an ally of the True Creator and didn't mind his people believing in the True Creator, he wouldn't actively help the True Creator establish a church and divide his own faith and power.

After all, the main church in the Solomon Empire could be said to be the Solomon royal family. The situation was similar in all four empires.

Of course, except for the Night Emperor Trunsoest!

This emperor, backed by the six gods, was already working hard to avoid becoming a puppet of the six gods, but clearly, he couldn't avoid sharing faith with them.

'So, the first step to helping the True Creator escape madness is actually helping him establish a complete church within the Solomon Empire, preventing his followers from being a scattered mess…'

Lynn thought, looking at Sasrir, who started to sort his paperwork again, 'So it seems, inviting Solomon to the previous tea party was indeed the right decision.'

He could discuss faith issues with him at the tea party.

As an ally of a Sequence 0 and with his Sequence 0-level combat strength, establishing a complete church within the Solomon Empire for the True Creator was perfectly reasonable, wasn't it?

'Moreover, I need believers too. I can create a smurf account, integrate it into the True Creator's faith system, and piggyback off his faith.' Lynn stroked his chin, finding this a good idea.

Faith is limited, but angels can share the faith of Sequence 0 without much issue. For example, most followers of the Ancient Sun God also served one or more of his angels, which didn't shake the faith in Sequence 0.

Otherwise, the church's angels would have long since lost control due to a lack of followers.

'This saves me trouble. The True Creator has a big name, so before I become Sequence 0, I can temporarily affiliate myself with his system. Once I ascend, I can establish my own.'

Lynn believed in the feasibility of this plan and knew that neither the True Creator nor Medici would oppose him sharing some faith.

'Also, I can promote it a bit in the Tudor Empire. Tudor can't do anything to me. As long as I don't shake his faith foundation, he won't fight me over it.' Lynn thought about the Tudor he had beaten up and felt confident.
