Chapter 333: Go Make Some Friends, Lynn

The Ancient Sun God did not deny Lynn's words. Although the Giant King Aurmir didn't seem very intelligent, who could really say if he was actually simple-minded? These ancient gods often appeared mad, but most had their own calculations. The Ancient Sun God himself was no exception, so he didn't mind these things. He simply said, "This is unlikely to be a trap. Aurmir is very wary of Gregrace. He wouldn't easily abandon cooperation with us unless the Phoenix Ancestor has fallen. Even if it were a trap, it would target me; there's no benefit in setting a trap for you."

Although the apparent alliance between the Giant King Aurmir and the Elven King Soniathrym hadn't completely fallen apart after the fall of Lilith, the progenitor of the Sanguine, it was practically meaningless, on the verge of collapse.

In fact, if one were to say that before the betrayal of the Annihilation Demonic Wolf by the Evernight Goddess and the betrayal of Lilith by the Giant King Aurmir, the various ancient gods still had alliances, maintaining a balance of power and relative peace. But after Aurmir's betrayal, mutual trust among the ancient gods had eroded, and even former alliances were now superficial, with each god wary of their allies, fearing a betrayal like Aurmir's.

The Elven King Soniathrym, known for his volatility, was especially disdainful and resentful of Aurmir, the traitor, making it highly unlikely they would join forces against the Phoenix Ancestor Gregrace.

However, this situation wasn't necessarily bad for the giants. The Giant King Aurmir gained satisfying rewards from his last betrayal—historically, the upcoming period would be a strong one for both giants and dragons, known as The Dual Era.

Similarly, this situation wasn't bad for the Ancient Sun God either. A close alliance among the ancient gods would be troublesome for the Ancient Sun God. Even as a true god with two sequences, it would be challenging to oppose all the ancient gods, as their madness didn't diminish their combat power. However, in this scenario, where the ancient gods couldn't trust each other, it became easier for the Ancient Sun God to win them over one by one and defeat them individually.

This was why the Ancient Sun God had orchestrated this situation.

"Alright, you smart ones always have a bunch of schemes. Even if Aurmir is scheming against you, you might be scheming against him as well..." Lynn lazily remarked. He didn't believe that the reasons given by the Ancient Sun God were all there was. Just like Lilith's feigned death, the surface reasons might be covering up deeper schemes.

Lynn didn't bother to think about what these beings were plotting. He simply rested his chin on his hand and continued, "The first objective is to help Little Red ascend. What's the second one?"

"The second objective is to discuss cooperation. In the upcoming period, wars among the various races will be frequent. Aurmir won't give up the chance to expand the giants' territory during this time, and we also need to find opportunities in these wars..." The Ancient Sun God spoke calmly, his gaze sweeping over each angel present. "So, in the coming time, not only will Sasrir, Medici, and Lynn need to go to the land of the giants, but everyone else will also have their respective tasks..."

Humans were currently at a disadvantage, so it wasn't wise to act openly. However, with Lilith's fall and the dissolution of the ancient gods' alliances, wars among the various supernatural races were inevitable. Whether for seizing the lands and resources that once belonged to the Sanguine, mutants, or demonic wolves, or for other reasons, the main theme of the coming times would be war. This was the best opportunity for them to fish in troubled waters.

Having orchestrated this situation, the Ancient Sun God was well-prepared, quickly assigning tasks to each angel. The main theme was, on one hand, to save people during this chaotic period, rescuing ordinary humans enslaved by the supernatural races and bringing them back to the divine kingdom.

Under normal circumstances, it wasn't feasible to do this, but during such chaos, the supernatural races wouldn't care much about humans, whom they considered vassals, slaves, or even food.

People themselves are also resources. Bringing more people back to the divine kingdom is not just a burden; it means more anchor points for the kingdom's angels and gods. It also means more usable individuals among the new generation, providing fresh blood to alleviate the current shortage of people in the divine kingdom.

Of course, how to settle these newcomers before they become usable was not something the Ancient Sun God needed to consider. It just meant Sasrir might have to work overtime for another hundred years after his short vacation.

On the other hand, the tasks involved alliances and provocations. The Ancient Sun God, an experienced schemer, assigned each angel to contact the followers of the ancient gods, providing them with parchment detailing the followers' backgrounds, including their strengths and preferences, along with strategies to ensure that even if recruitment failed, it wouldn't lead to hostility.

Lynn glanced at the parchment and couldn't help but marvel, "Where did you get all this information? So, when you disappear, you're out collecting all this?" The Ancient Sun God's social networking skills were impressive, able to gather such detailed intelligence, which clearly required significant effort.

It was no wonder that after the establishment of the Rose Redemption, besides the obvious few, there were many hidden supporters. The Ancient Sun God's networking skills were truly remarkable!

Lynn was quite surprised, and after a moment, he remembered something and looked at the Ancient Sun God, asking, "Wait, what about me? Don't I have any tasks involving recruiting followers?"

Not only those who weren't going to the land of the giants received parchment; Sasrir and Medici, who were going, also received instructions to secretly contact certain followers in the Land of Giants. But Lynn received nothing.

"You can make friends according to your own thoughts," the Ancient Sun God replied with a gentle smile. "I believe you don't need my guidance or orders in this regard."

Lynn raised an eyebrow, didn't argue, and said with a smile, " Of course, then I should think carefully about who to befriend."
