"What?" Antigonus was clearly baffled. He looked at Lynn, then at Bethel. His mind was still replaying the conversation between Lynn and Bethel, but at this moment, this demonic wolf was not just bewildered—he also felt like cursing.
However, Antigonus quickly snapped out of his confusion. After a few seconds of hesitation, he said, "If there's really something I can help with, I don't mind lending a hand."
Though his spiritual intuition told Antigonus that this might be a huge pitfall, he had no choice but to jump in with his eyes closed.
Jumping into the pit at most made him an accomplice. Even if a Sequence 0 became angry, at least as a Semi-Fool, Antigonus could run if he couldn't fight a Sequence 0. Even if there were five Sequence 0s, they couldn't possibly all chase after one weak accomplice like him.
But if he didn't jump, Antigonus was sure he wouldn't even be able to escape. He could only flee into the historical void, and his opponent could directly alter history.
Thus, Antigonus made a very cautious decision. Even if it meant going against the world, he couldn't afford to offend Lynn in front of him.
This person was far more terrifying than those Sequence 0s.
Moreover… Antigonus glanced at Lynn cautiously. Though he had always feared Lynn, Antigonus had a gut feeling that Lynn wasn't that insane, so his mention of a friend might be genuine.
If that was the case, things shouldn't escalate to the point where Sequence 0s would chase after him, right? Uh, better not be too confident. Maybe it's best to prepare for an escape in advance?
Antigonus wasn't too sure, but he didn't forget another matter and quickly added, "However, I think Amon could be a great help in this matter. The abilities of the Worm of Time are very suitable for assisting with this task."
Yes, without hesitation, Antigonus decided to drag Amon into this. The superficial camaraderie of the three cowards was fully displayed at this moment.
"Hmm, Bethel's space-isolation and sealing, Little Antigonus's grafting and alteration, Amon's bug exploiting, plus my time authority… It does sound very reasonable."
Lynn, rubbing his chin thoughtfully, nodded. He clearly saw that the three cowards were ready to go all out, but this didn't stop him from seriously analyzing their roles in this matter.
And surprisingly, it made a lot of sense. Lynn even felt that without his help, these three might still be able to create the space he wanted.
As for whether Amon would refuse to help, Lynn doubted it. Amon was a genuine trickster who wouldn't miss such an opportunity to both strengthen their relationship and cause chaos.
But Bethel and Antigonus… Lynn looked at the two scoundrel Kings of Angels before him. He hadn't expected them to agree so readily.
After all, Lynn knew how ridiculous this plan sounded. If anyone else proposed such an idea, they'd be deemed insane. Even though Lynn knew the risks were within a controllable range, he also had the power to suppress any unexpected incidents. But others didn't know that!
In this situation, for Bethel and Antigonus to choose to trust him and help him with such an absurd plan, whether out of fear or friendship, Lynn was satisfied with their response.
'Indeed, my charisma is still that strong…' Lynn shamelessly thought to himself. Then, placing a hand on Bethel and Antigonus's shoulders, he smiled and said, "You're making a lot of sense. So let's team up and find Amon! Do any of you know where Amon is?"
"There's a fixed location near the Abraham family where one of Amon's avatars resides. We can start by finding that avatar and then ask for Amon's true location." Bethel replied solemnly, looking completely calm as he actively dragged his superficial colleagues into the pit.
"Even if that Amon avatar refuses to tell us the true location, I can try to locate the true form through the avatar. If Bethel assists me, I can attempt to directly alter the positions of Amon's avatar and true form, with a high probability of success."
Antigonus responded eagerly. It was evident that his initial reluctance had turned into a subtle anticipation of the upcoming events.
"Then let's set off immediately!" Lynn decided firmly. However, just before Mr. Door opened the space door, Lynn added, as if remembering something, "Oh, by the way, if you manage to create the space I need, as a reward, I can grant you one request, as long as it doesn't violate my principles."
Antigonus's ears perked up at this, and he almost blurted out, 'Does asking you to never come looking for me violate your principles?' But he held back and cautiously asked, "What are your principles?"
Bethel also quietly awaited Lynn's answer.
"My principles are simple: First, do not harm those I care about. Second, do not slaughter innocents…"
Lynn stated calmly, raising a finger for each principle. After listing his principles, he continued, "Though there are many restrictions, you can still ask for my help in battles not involving those I care about. You can also seek my assistance if you're about to die, or ask me to save someone. But remember, you can only choose one person. After all, my abilities are limited."
Lynn's gaze fell on Bethel, then swept over Antigonus, and finally rested on the Mother of the Sky, who had been a silent background presence. He paused briefly before quickly looking away.
This small detail didn't go unnoticed by Antigonus and Bethel. The former was momentarily stunned, clearly realizing something, and his expression changed. The latter also showed a thoughtful look.
Unlike Bethel, who wasn't as familiar with Lynn's "future prediction" abilities, Antigonus, who knew Lynn could alter history, was closer to understanding the truth of Lynn's power. Thus, seeing Lynn's meaningful glance at the Mother of the Sky, Antigonus naturally thought of some possibilities.
For instance… The era they were in might also be the past for Lynn. Perhaps in the future, his sister had already fallen.
Although it sounded incredible, for Antigonus, who had experienced Lynn's interventions in history, it was understandable.
Since time held no meaning for Lynn, any space-time he occupied was normal, right?
But how could his sister be in danger? She wouldn't leave the Nation of Evernight easily… Antigonus first showed a puzzled expression, then turned serious.
Unless… the Nation of Evernight was also destroyed.
Honestly, this future terrified Antigonus. He wasn't so afraid of his own demise, but if he survived while his sister and the Nation of Evernight didn't…
What would he have left?
Antigonus suddenly felt a bit lost.
