Chapter 183 An Su: I have taken over the entire Sect! (Two in One)
After preliminary discussions, the geniuses of the Esoteric Religion established the guidelines for their operation.
They planned to approach the Borderland Triumvirs simultaneously from three aspects: knowledge, wealth, and beauty. After gaining their trust, they would strike at their most relaxed moment and possess their souls!
A perfect plan.
"I think we could also try to possess Merlin."
His Excellency the Archmage conveyed a mental message to An Su,
"Merlin likes knowledge and is in need of money; currently, he also lacks a beautiful girlfriend."
"He has so many character flaws, the ideal target for possession. If we could possess the Holder of Heaven, our grand mission of the Great Cult will soon be within reach. Dominating the Entire Nether World will be as easy as taking something by hand. An Su, go and put in a good word for me."
"I will coordinate well with the possession."
Seeing that the Borderland Triumvirs had all made their New Year's wishes, Merlin, far away in Heaven, also began making wishes to An Su.
An Su's eyes twitched slightly.
He knew Merlin was unreliable.
Everyone else's grandfathers were giving the protagonist skills, gold, and girlfriends, but his own grandfather was doing the opposite, asking the protagonist for skills, gold, and girlfriends.
In truth, it didn't matter whether he received a New Year's gift or not; Merlin mainly wanted someone to possess him for a change.
To have his body possessed while at work,
and then reclaim it during his time off.

"Go and speak to me, go and speak to me, go and speak to me..."
An Su really couldn't cope with this old man's nagging in his ear and reluctantly said, "Okay, I'll go and sweet-talk them. Watch me."
He then cut off his soul communication with Merlin and found Bishop Rada, first making a respectful gesture,
"Your Excellency the Bishop, I also have a plan."
The meeting was almost over by then, and each of the three Sects had discussed how to deal with those three individuals. Bishop Rada also found himself with some free time.
Bishop Rada had a good impression of this young man before him; he seemed quick-witted. If it weren't for his pesky hair, he might even be brighter than Rada himself.
If circumstances allowed, he would shave off his hair and then recruit him into the Gorilla Sect, starting as a staff member to enhance their Sect's cultural literacy.
"Speak," urged Bishop Rada, touching his own bright head with a solemn expression.
"I suggest we pull off a big one!"
An Su displayed a look of utter loyalty to the Esoteric Religion, "We strike directly at the heart of the matter. The three geniuses of the Great Cult take action one after the other, capturing An Su, Arthur, and Lister, then infiltrating Heaven under the guise of a royal barber. At that time, with our combined efforts from within and without, utilizing all the treasures and women of our three Sects to close in on Mage God Merlin, you will finally take action personally, and possess Merlin. Then, the Entire Heaven will be in our hands!"
Bishop Rada was shocked, barely able to maintain his solemn composure.
This fellow from the Chaotic Staircase was truly an exceptional person, daring to think about possessing an Archmage, something even Rada himself wouldn't dare to imagine.
This kid was a bit too extreme.
Bishop Rada shook his head and said to An Su, "You're thinking too idealistically. I understand Merlin, this man, and even if we had him physically, we wouldn't have his heart."
An Su wondered what they needed his heart for.
"What I mean is, we won't get him so easily. I understand Merlin; he will certainly resist to the death to protect Heaven. Whether it's money, beauty, or even forbidden magic, none can sway him."
Bishop Rada acted as if he had a deep understanding of Merlin.
However, An Su's bold idea impressed Rada, and he reassessed the young man, rating him higher and considering how to possess the Radiant Bishop. Truly the most loyal Believer to the Mother Goddess.
A wise general.
The outside world was unaware, but Rada knew very well,
that the Sect he led seemed flourishing yet was fraught with serious internal strife.
At this critical tipping point, the Sect desperately needed a wise general to provide strategic insight and save the Sect from peril.
If possible, Rada planned to shave his head and recruit him into the Gorilla Cult.
"Let's put this plan aside for now," Bishop Rada declined An Su's proposal, disappointing His Excellency the Archmage, who secretly thought these members of the Esoteric Religion lacked vision.
Such a stingy wish-granting turtle.
"But your line of thinking isn't bad," stated Bishop Rada, affirming An Su's thought process, then suggested, "How about shaving off your head and joining the Gorilla Sect I lead, serving as my aide? With your assistance, the rise of the Esoteric Religion is just a matter of time."
As the patriarch of the Gorilla Sect, Bishop Rada was even considering offering this young man a position.
The personal invitation from the Demigod left the surrounding Priests astounded.
The Gorilla Sect, originally named the Crimson Sect, had the most horrifying Crimson Legion, invading and colonizing the Nether World, one of the mightiest armies of the Painful Esoteric Sect. Countless Believers considered it an honor to join the Crimson Sect.
However, that glory was in the past.
For some reason, since changing its name to the Gorilla Sect, the number of young people joining the army had decreased, and many Believers resigned.
The deputy bishop who had suggested the name change was already fired by Rada.
Rada was now widely recruiting wise generals, to grant a new name to his Sect.
Upon hearing about the situation from others, An Su instantly understood and quickly said, "Your Excellency the Bishop, you jest. I have been the most loyal Believer to the Mother Goddess of Chaos since ancient times, how could I possibly abandon my faith?"
Just a staff position wasn't enough to make An Su switch faiths; the offer was too low.
