Chapter 1431: The Troubles Of The Gods 3 (Thanks To President Raspberry Yogurt)
The gods in the station were once again in an uproar. At the same time, the crowd in a certain area quickly dispersed, revealing an empty space and Zhang Heng standing in it.
Before this, their attention was almost entirely focused on gaime on television, so no one noticed when Zhang Heng appeared.
However, when they realized that Zhang Heng had also entered the station, many of them could not help but show expressions of despair.
A moment ago, they were still unhappy that Gaime had hidden the existence of the station in order to keep them in the game world. However, in the blink of an eye, they realized that even this outcome had turned into an extravagant hope.
It was unknown whether Gaime’s arrangements had gone wrong, or whether the god of fiction was too useless to carry out his arrangements successfully, resulting in the monster named Cthulhu chasing after them all the way into the game world.
What made the gods even more terrified was that they realized they had nowhere to run.
Previously, when the real world outside was about to be destroyed, they could still escape to the new world. However, once the New World Fell, they had no idea where they could escape to.
However, when they realized this, the reactions of different gods were different. Some wanted to fight Zhang Heng to the death. Even though they knew they were no match for Zhang Heng, dying in battle was better than being killed by others, some of them placed their last hope on GAIME. Some even knelt on the ground and begged Gaime to help them.
Other than that, a small group of people had different reactions from the previous two groups. For example, Ares, who was a relatively strong God, had always been active in battle, he had fought with Cthulhu a few times, but during these few battles, Cthulhu had never spoken a single word.
In the original design, this monster was an existence that could not communicate. At most, it could only communicate through dreams and hallucinations. However, just now, they had clearly heard Zhang Heng speak, and even though his words sounded difficult to understand, the meaning of the difficult to understand was not literal. In fact, Zhang Heng’s words were very clear.
This was especially true for Chronos. Unlike the other gods, he was most familiar with Zhang Heng. The young man standing before him now gave him a strong sense of familiarity, therefore, the god of time, who had already made up his mind not to say anything, blurted out, “It’s You? !”
“It’s me,”Zhang Heng said. “Long time no see, Chronos.”
As he said this, the crowd that was about to lose control finally quieted down. The gods’gaze returned to the figure that they had not dared to look at before.
“How is that possible? Your soul should have been completely crushed the moment that guy descended!”Chronos exclaimed.
This time, even the slowest person realized that Zhang Heng was not the same person as the one who had chased after them outside the mansion in Pluto, even though there was no difference in their appearance, there were even traces of blood on Zhang Heng’s body. It was obvious that he was the one who had led the massacre.
“I did die once,”Zhang Heng said. His gaze swept across the gods present. After a pause, he continued, “But now, I’m back.”
“How did you do that?”Chronos was confused, and he asked the questions that were in the minds of the gods present.
Zhang Heng did not hide anything, “I wrote a novel, a very popular novel. After my death, it was uploaded to the Internet by a friend of mine. It was about all my experiences. So far, more than nine million people have read the novel. You should understand what this means, and my return is the ending of the novel.”
“You gave yourself a resurrection ending in a novel to influence reality?”Chronos was shocked, “Wait, but a god can not interfere with his own fate, even if it is through indirect means such as novels or movies.”
“I am not a god.”
“But, humans can not change their own fate through novels. Otherwise, all novelists can live forever,”the code God said as he adjusted his glasses.
“I’m not a human either,”Zhang Heng said calmly. “I have the blood of Cthulhu flowing in my body.”
“…”
“You can do that? !”The Egyptian god Osiris was also shocked, however, he had to admit that Zhang Heng’s situation was probably the most unique in the world. He was originally the vessel chosen by Cthulhu, and he had completed the blood exchange early on. If this was to be taken seriously.., previously, he could be considered an ordinary person with Cthulhu’s blood flowing through his body.
“So, the monster was killed by you just like that?”Nix’s words also caused the eyes of the surrounding gods to light up. However, she quickly added.., “That’s not right. Cthulhu can not be eliminated in the original setting. Furthermore, his story has been popular for decades, and it has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It’s not that easy to change. No matter how good your story is, it has only been published for a few months. If you dare to challenge the rules that have already been deeply rooted in your body and mind, the only outcome is that your novel loses its authenticity, and you lose your only chance of revival.”
“You’re right.”Zhang Heng nodded, “I didn’t kill him. He’s still in my body. “In fact, we’ve temporarily stopped fighting. We share the same body. To be more precise, it takes him 23 hours and 50 minutes. I’ll take 10 minutes.”
However, just as he finished his sentence, the gods, who had heaved a sigh of relief, felt their hearts skip a beat. One of the gods, who was standing close to Zhang Heng, immediately distanced himself from him, the gods looked at him as if they were looking at a time bomb.
“Don’t worry, the flow of time at the station is different from the real world.”
Gaime spoke on the television to calm the tense atmosphere. However, there were still many gods clamoring to leave, expressing that they didn’t want to stay in the same place with Zhang Heng for another moment.
However, before Gaime could say anything, Zhang Heng continued, “There’s no point in leaving now, because once, I, uh… the other guy in my body returns to the outside world, don’t expect me to rely on my pitiful ten minutes to stop him. When that time comes, we’ll all die together.”
“What exactly do you want us to do? Just say it,”the god of amusement park said.
“Build a special dungeon for me and help me lock up the guy in my body.”Zhang Heng did not keep him in suspense anymore.
