Chapter 413: Entering Familiar Territory for Lynn

Although it was unexpected, the fact that the True Creator could regain clarity, even if only temporarily, was undoubtedly a good thing. It was something that pleasantly surprised Lynn.

This development meant that Lynn's previous thoughts were correct: as long as the madness could be overcome, the True Creator could return to a clear state, becoming the person Lynn once knew.

In addition to this pleasant surprise, Lynn naturally learned from the True Creator about the events that transpired during the three months he was in slumber.

The first person to discover Lynn's condition was Bethel. Mr. Door, after realizing something was unusual about Lynn's state, immediately contacted Medici. The latter had seemingly just synchronized with memories from the Second Epoch and was not surprised by Lynn's slumber. He simply took Lynn away with force, which explained why Lynn found himself lying under the True Creator's cross when he woke up.

During Lynn's slumber, the most significant event was undoubtedly the True Creator, who, influenced by the buff surrounding Lynn during his slumber, suppressed the madness and regained clarity. As the former Vice-King of Heaven, who nearly single-handedly built the ancient Sun God Church, the True Creator almost immediately began to improve and develop the fledgling True Creator Church that Lynn had just set up.

He was not unconcerned about Lynn's safety, but the memories from the past and his own judgment made the True Creator firmly believe that Lynn's slumber was not a bad thing. Moreover, the True Creator had no means to awaken Lynn.

Given the situation, rather than sitting idly and waiting for Lynn to wake up, the True Creator felt it was better to get some work done while he was still lucid.

This way, when Lynn woke up, things would be easier for him. The True Creator knew that Lynn did not particularly enjoy working. He was well aware that this child, whom he had mentored for several years, preferred to slack off rather than engage in work.

So, the True Creator decided to complete the work in advance, as it was also his responsibility.

Once the former Dark Angel and current True Creator got serious, his efficiency was extraordinary. After all, this was the man who once single-handedly managed the entire divine kingdom's operations!

As a result, within just three months, the True Creator had transformed the church from a fledgling organization into a fully structured one, only lacking specific clergy members to fill various departments.

The only issue was that there weren't many talented followers among the True Creator's believers. In three months, it was impossible to quickly produce a batch of clergy to fill the entire church. Otherwise, Lynn would have woken up to a perfectly established church of a True God.

"It's a pity that I didn't focus on cultivating followers when I was mad. Even though I've lowered the standards now, those who can meet the requirements are only enough to roughly support the church's framework. In the future, it will be up to you to slowly train and select suitable people to fill the various departments," the True Creator said, both apologetically and helplessly.

He hadn't expected that after so many years, even after merging with the Lord and becoming a true God, his followers were still so few and far between. It made the True Creator momentarily feel like he was back in the Second Epoch.

The problem was that his current state wasn't great. He had only temporarily regained clarity and would soon fall into madness again. The remaining tasks would have to be handled by Lynn. Otherwise, the True Creator wouldn't mind running the entire church himself like he did in the past and gradually training others who could be of use.

Unfortunately, he was now powerless to do so.

"No worries, this is already better than I expected..." Lynn waved his hand with a subtle expression and said, "You've basically done the hardest part of the work. The rest is just about cultivating talent and recruiting followers. This is the work I'm familiar with."

For the mid to low-sequence Beyonder clergy who would form the backbone of the church, Lynn could certainly select suitable individuals from the current followers of the True Creator for training. However, cultivating high-sequence followers wouldn't be possible in the short term. While there were some high-sequence individuals among the True Creator's followers, they were far fewer compared to other True God churches, so more were needed.

Lynn's strategy was simple: on the one hand, he would make long-term plans, regularly selecting outstanding and suitable talents from the True Creator's followers for long-term training. Although not all of them could become high-sequence, over time, some would emerge.

On the other hand, he would directly target the well-developed followers of other churches and recruit them.

Their loyalty wasn't crucial; as long as they didn't betray during their service, that was enough. Most high-sequence Beyonders, especially those at the angel level, weren't necessarily loyal to the gods they followed.

After all, not everyone was like Medici, whose loyalty made one question whether he was a natural-born mythological creature.

Most angels followed a Sequence 0 being merely for protection and sustenance.

"By the way, where is Medici? Where did he go?" Lynn looked around curiously and asked.

"Medici is currently visiting the Zoroast family," the True Creator responded, clearly not hiding anything from Lynn.

"Although the church is already structured, it lacks many components. Solomon agreed to assist us in establishing and developing the church, but he won't directly involve himself in many specific matters. Instead, he will let the angel families following him assist us."

In other words, the Zoroast family had been ordered to help establish and develop the True Creator Church, and Medici had clearly gone to negotiate with Pallez Zoroast about the specific investment for the church's development. Or more precisely, Medici had gone to ask for money, people, and resources.

After all, establishing a large church from scratch, even with the framework already in place, wasn't a simple task. Both talent and resources were significant issues. Since Solomon had instructed the Zoroast family to assist in establishing the True Creator Church, it would be a waste not to take advantage of the opportunity.

'The Zoroast family? Isn't that the family of Old Man Pallez?' Lynn's eyes lit up instantly, and he said excitedly, "How can I not be involved in such a big matter? And are we sure it's reliable to let Medici handle this alone?" he added, unable to resist a jab.

Lynn certainly trusted Medici's intelligence; the mind of a top-level schemer was not to be underestimated. However, he really didn't trust Medici's mouth.

The sharp tongue had long been ingrained in the War Angel's nature, making Lynn worry that Medici might start a fight with the other side due to his words while negotiating for resources.
