Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 29: Luo Lin's Vest No.

Rollin's number one alias is naturally "Rollin Zoroast", an avenger who was persecuted by Amon, saved by the Lord of Chaos, and who sold his soul for revenge and to revitalize his family. He is currently responsible for making his presence felt in front of Leonard and Zoroast.

Rowling's second alias is "Jack Jones", a time traveler, a pure and foolish college student from the Zoroast family. He has a simple personality but knows a lot of things. He is currently Klein's teacher and is good friends with Azik.

Rowling's third alias was a character he had conceived as early as when he was writing "The Time Travel Diary" - "Lucifer Zoroast". The name was taken from a well-known fallen angel in Rowling's previous life. He was set to be the main character of the "Time Travel Diary", the first time traveler of the Zoroast family, and also the teacher of "Jack Jones", a very high-sequence extraordinary person.

"The Lord of Chaos will take the blame for Rowling's mistakes, and Lucifer will take the blame for Jack's. This way, everyone will have a bright future." Rowling thought of this and suddenly thought of something else. He couldn't help laughing. "Thinking about it this way, the Zoroast family is indeed full of talented people. How can this not be considered a revitalization?"

"There is only Amon in the Amon family!" Rowling made a joke in his heart, and continued to sort out the personalities and differences of the three aliases in his mind.

After all, he doesn't want to be exposed because of a negligence, that would be too disastrous.

……

Friday, September 7st.

After arriving at the Blackthorn Security Company, Klein met Captain Dunn and learned from him that the Antigonus family notes had been escorted to Backlund by the Nighthawks. Klein could be promoted to an official Nighthawk because of his contribution in this operation.

——Just yesterday, Klein participated in the operation to hunt down the descendants of the Antigonus family and retrieve the Antigonus family notes. He shone brilliantly in this battle, killing the Beyonder of the Secret Order and thus making a great contribution.

Klein was naturally satisfied with this result. Although his first murder had left him with some psychological trauma, he had killed a bad guy after all. Klein had a strong ability to self-regulate, so he quickly adjusted himself.

But... Klein thought of something. Before Dunn turned and left, he said, "Captain, I have something important to discuss with you."

Dunn glanced at Klein doubtfully. Although he didn't know what the other party wanted, he nodded.

The two then went to Dunn's office together, and Klein also mentioned the important matter he mentioned - developing Jack into an informant.

Klein had been thinking about this matter for a long time, but he had not brought it up before because he was still young among the Nighthawks.

Now that Klein was finally about to become a formal Beyonder, he naturally decided to take advantage of this opportunity to get Jack a legitimate informant identity. Of course, there was a reason why Klein dared to bring this up. He had already inquired about informants during this period, so he was 90% sure about the matter.

This was indeed the case. After Klein proposed that he had discovered a wild Beyonder, who was also a wild fortune teller. He confirmed that the Beyonder was very law-abiding and willing to cooperate with the Nighthawks, so he wanted to develop him into an informant. Dunn agreed to Klein's application, but only asked Klein to provide more detailed information and asked Klein to keep it secret from others, saying that Klein would be responsible for contacting the informant in the future.

Having successfully cleared Jack's identity, Klein naturally breathed a sigh of relief. He then resumed his work and studies for the day and was given a half-day off in the afternoon. The Nighthawks were very humane. Klein had just participated in a major mission yesterday, so he naturally had the opportunity to rest today.

Klein naturally wouldn't refuse his vacation. Having long planned to find time to meet up with Rowling and the others, Klein left Blackthorn Security Company and took a trackless carriage to Hoy University. "Hey, Klein, good afternoon! Is your day off so soon?" Rowling, who was organizing lesson plans in the history teacher's office, spotted Klein coming in and immediately greeted him.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Jack." Klein replied to Luo Lin with a smile. His eyes fell on Azik, who was also sitting in the office. He smiled and said, "Good afternoon, Mr. Azik."

"Good afternoon, Klein." Azik responded gently. His eyes suddenly paused, and he frowned as he looked Klein up and down.

"What's wrong, Mr. Azik?" Klein looked at Azik with some confusion and nervousness.

Before knowing that Mr. Azik was a Beyonder, Klein would have only suspected that there was something wrong with his attire. But now that he knew Mr. Azik's identity as a Beyonder, Klein couldn't help but have more wild thoughts.

Azik didn't answer immediately. He glanced at the other people in the office first, then said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Do you mind walking with me along the Hoy River?" After a pause, Azik glanced at Luo Lin beside him and added, "Of course, Jack will come too."

"Okay!" As a "naive" person, Luo Lin nodded without any hesitation.

Although Klein was somewhat doubtful, he came to see Azik this time with the intention of chatting with him, so he nodded.

The three of them then left the office and came to the banks of the Hoy River, but no one spoke until they reached a deserted corner. Azik then stopped and looked at Klein. He said, "I notice something inconsistent with your fate. Have you experienced many coincidences recently?"

Compared to the conversation in the original novel that had a lot of foreshadowing, this time because of Rowling's interference, both sides played their cards to each other, and as a result, Azik's opening remarks were obviously much more direct.

Coincidence? There are too many, like The Fool, The Fool, and The Fool... Klein complained in his heart, but he had a hunch that what Azik was talking about might not be this. This made Klein reflect on his recent experiences and then fell silent.

There was no way around it. Klein had experienced so much during this period that just recalling it was a huge undertaking.

However, Klein quickly found the key point and said, "There are indeed two coincidences..."

The two things Klein mentioned here naturally refer to the two things related to the Antigonus family notes. It can be said that the Nighthawks' successful discovery of the Antigonus family notes is inseparable from coincidence.

But I thought it was because the gray fog instinctively attracted the Antigonus family notes, which were a means of fortune-telling, wasn't it?
Or was it that what Mr. Azik noticed was actually gray fog?

Klein was puzzled, but remained calm as he spoke, "Mr. Azik, did you see anything?"
