Except for the two parties involved, no one knows what happened in the high-rise building. At the end of his life, the old man picked up the stone slab and followed Ryan down the tall building.

He was not in a hurry, and even slowed down because of the old man's decaying body. But the passage of time will never stop.

In the city of Aurora, people who learned about the oracle were running around in panic. Some of them knelt down to pray, and some looked for shelter in places they thought were safe. The whole city seemed noisy and chaotic.

In contrast, on Mount Olympus, the gods looked expectantly at the scene below. Even though they were far apart, they could notice that the eastern edge of the continent, the edge of the sea and the land, was blurred.

Triton, the son of Poseidon, will bring a gift to the gods, which is also one of the programs performed before the real ‘feast’ begins. This banquet held for the Goddess of Beauty is not just a celebration of her new acquisition of two gods, it also has a deeper meaning, because after today, the Olympian gods will discuss matters in the next human century, and Divide their respective interests.

The first person to bring up this matter was Poseidon. He no longer wanted to proceed according to the previous rules, and other gods also responded. Faced with this request, Zeus agreed.

Even as a god-king, Zeus is far from being able to do as he pleases. Now his throne relies more on his brothers and sisters. The combination of six powerful gods makes his position as stable as Mount Tai. So in this case, he must also listen to and satisfy some of their demands.

Of course, these are all things for later. Now, using the artifact created by the priesthood as a medium, and with the cooperation of the power of the God King, everything around the trident is presented to the gods.

Terry, who had a body with a fish tail, agreed and was very angry. He pointed far ahead and watched the sea monster in the waves tear the beast into pieces. Occasionally, he would take matters into his own hands, wrapping a bird that had no time to fly with seawater and watching it suffocate to death.

“Behold, this is what is mortal, and this is the consequence of deceiving the gods.”

"They can do whatever they want when God doesn't notice, but when we find out everything they can only wait to die!"

After drinking a large glass of wine and watching this scene, Poseidon grinned.

He had wanted to take action a long time ago, but Zeus stopped him because he took into account the face of the divine court and the image of the gods, but it was not too late now. The noble Poseidon allowed those mortals to live for a few more years, and only today did he allow his son to use artifacts to bring disasters. Mortals should really be grateful for his kindness.

"Is this interesting?"

On the side, Hestia frowned as she watched the rolling seawater submerge the land, the beasts struggling in the water, and the birds flying away in panic.

"Perhaps your son could kill these lives in a more direct way."

She is not a person with too much sympathy, so the goddess of fire can understand Zeus's decision. The destruction of mankind is doomed, but for her, 'destroying mankind' and 'taking pleasure in it' are two different things.

"The process is more interesting than the result, my sister. Just like the guy who was imprisoned in his temple by Zeus, doesn't he also have to enjoy eternal pain?"

Poseidon didn't care about this, and most of the gods didn't care much either. If a god is treated like this, many of them will hurt others. This is why Zeus is very cautious in dealing with Prometheus. But if the object is just a mortal thing, then there is nothing to say.

".I have no interest in these. Since you want to see it, I won't disturb your interest."

Standing up, the goddess signaled to the God-King.

"Well, my sister, I always respect your decision."

With a look of regret on his face, Zeus raised his glass.

"But do you have any ideas about what we are going to talk about later?"

"I don't need anything, Zeus. I don't need a specific city, a certain human tribe to worship me as their main god, forcing them to have my name on their lips every day, as long as all humans light hearth fires at home. , this is already respect for me.”

Shaking her head slightly, the goddess looked at these very lightly.

Unlike her younger brothers, she is always ambitious and wants to go further. In fact, it is still unknown whether faith can really help gods reach greatness.

Even Zeus now is not very sure about this. But in his opinion, since faith can break the iron law that divine power is limited by priesthood, it might not be able to fill the gap leading to the great realm.

"However, if there are people in the new human race who voluntarily believe in me and agree with my way, then you can't stop it. This is the only thing I want to say."

Although she doesn't care much about faith, Hestia is still very interested in intelligent humans.

If someone really recognized her thoughts and voluntarily became her believer, the goddess would happily accept it.

"Of course, my sister, this is your right."

Regarding Hestia's request, the God King immediately agreed, and the other gods could not have any objections, so the matter was settled.

After Hestia left, the place was quiet for a while, and then quickly became lively again. Only Aphrodite was a little unhappy. She felt that Hestia was so disrespectful for some mortal things.

But she didn't show it, she just remembered it secretly.

Time passed slowly, and in the middle of the hall, the scene displayed with the power of the artifact and the God King was constantly changing. Although Triton deliberately slowed down his progress, he still gradually approached Aurora.

Looking at this scene, Poseidon seemed to be unable to hold back and wanted to say something. He looked around and suddenly took out a shining sphere from his body.

"Everyone, just watching my children perform is not too boring. I have an additional idea that can make this process more interesting. I wonder if you are willing to join in?"

"Oh, why didn't I know that even you can come up with some new ideas?"

After hearing this, the Queen of Heaven said casually from the main seat.

Demeter smiled when she heard this. Like Zeus, Poseidon also showed his attentiveness to her, but the other party's boredom made her lose interest.

Zeus may not have been a good husband, but he certainly knew how to sweet talk.

"Humph, it's just prejudice."

With a snort, Poseidon didn't think much of Hera's teasing. He placed the sphere on the table and spoke his mind.

"The destruction of mankind is inevitable, but the process is unknown. How about we take a gamble."

"Let's bet on how they will react in the face of destruction. Whether they will kneel down and beg for mercy, wait desperately for death, try to use ridiculous words to deceive the gods again, or ignorantly attack the gods, we can guess how many people will do it. React accordingly, that’s what the gamble is about.”

After the words fell, many gods present were moved. Compared with the monotonous one-sided massacre, this still seems to have a more sense of expectation.

"What about the bet? Is it this useless thing?"

A god pointed at the crystal ball in front of Poseidon.

This is a mass of ocean essence that only the true god in charge of ocean-related clergy can extract from sea water. The scepter of Ocean God was forged from this material. But for gods other than Poseidon, this is really of little use.

"Hahaha, that's all I have. If you want anything else, it depends on whether my good brother is willing to part with it -"

Laughing, Poseidon looked at Zeus.

"But His Majesty the God King probably regards humans as his own, and I am afraid he may not be willing to put them on the table. Am I right, my dear brother?"

His expression remained unchanged. Faced with Poseidon's overt sarcasm, Zeus was secretly angry and knew why he said this. After all, throughout the Bronze Age, he had gained the most faith from mankind in the name of the God King. However, because he was forbidden to set foot in the sea, mankind's belief in the Sea King was the most superficial.

But thinking about this, Zeus couldn't help but feel funny. It won't take long for this stupid brother of yours to understand that your lack of faith has nothing to do with whether you are a God King or not. It's just because you're not good enough.

So the God King directly used his divine power to outline a map in the air, which was the vast land between Olympus and the East China Sea.

However, there are very few of these places suitable for large-scale human settlement. These are all the consequences of the war between gods a hundred years ago, and they still have lingering effects to this day.

"Since you are so interested, Poseidon, let's take a gamble together."

"The bet is what is on this picture, and the winner chooses first. But no matter what choice we make today, this only represents the beginning, not a permanent rule. The winning god will gain an advantage at the beginning. , but what happens next depends on our respective abilities."

Looking at Poseidon, Zeus revealed his long-awaited plan.

"Mortal matters should be left to mortals to resolve themselves. No god is allowed to kill believers of other gods without reason. Anyone who violates this rule is the enemy of the Divine Court. What do you think?"

At this moment, the power possessed by the 'Guardian of the Oath' spreads. Although this is far less than the real Styx Oath, it still has a certain binding force on God.

In Zeus's original plan, he planned to abandon the current model of 'equal sharing' of beliefs, even if under this 'equal sharing', he would get the largest share.

Before today, he had only mentioned this matter to Hera and a few of his men. Now that Poseidon was the first to speak out, he would just go with the flow.

If in the next human era, gods use force against mortals on a large scale, the backlash of the oath combined with the shock of the laws of this world, the two superimposed, are enough to cause any god to suffer heavy losses.

The gods present felt the power of this oath, and they were a little silent for a while, but Poseidon didn't care about that.

"So do you too my brother?"

"If your followers in the mortal world are killed by my followers in the future, and the territory belonging to your followers is occupied by my followers, will you also abide by today's oath?"

"certainly."

With a cold light flashing in his eyes, Zeus nodded and promised:

"Unless mortals offend me, I will not take the initiative to attack believers of other gods. This is my promise."

"But even the God King must keep his promise, so no one can break it."

"Okay, then it's settled!"

Picking up the wine glass, Poseidon drank it all in one gulp.

He always felt that he was no worse than Zeus, but at the beginning, the mother goddess chose to rescue him and fell behind, which was why he failed later.

"I bet none of these humans would dare to draw a sword against a god, what about you?"

He was the first to express his opinion. Faced with the power of the gods to control nature, Neptune did not think they would choose to use 'force' to resist. In this way, at least he won't lose.

······

At the same time, in Aurora city.

The water flow continued to roll, gushing out from the river not far from the city wall, as if the downstream was cut off, and the river water that had lost its home poured out to both banks.

At the end of the earth, a blue 'line' gradually appeared, followed by some deafening beast roars.

"Your Mightiness."

Next to the holy fire, High Priest Momen had taken off the sacrificial robe with thunder and lightning patterns at some point. He stood beside a blur of black mist, his face respectful and resigned.

"According to your prior instructions, everything has been arranged, but the previous oracle"

"no need to worry."

An erratic voice came from the black mist, and it sounded like its owner was in a happy mood.

"Over the years, I have roughly understood the rules of the mortal world. Since the gods cannot really use their power on the earth, then they have nothing to fear."

"Poseidon, it's probably a storm or a flood. This may be scary for a city, but it's nothing to me. Even you now can't be drowned by a flood. ."

After a brief induction, the rituals all over human cities were clearly visible, and Mephistopheles was very satisfied with this.

In order to test its effect, the devil has tried it before. In the past few months, the souls of the deceased have been bound by the abilities attached to the ritual, so that they have not returned to where they should go.

But that's about it. If the gods don't take action anymore, Mephistopheles can't bear it anymore. After all, these delayed souls may attract the attention of the spiritual gods at any time. Although there are many creatures on the earth now, they may not pay attention to these few, but human beings are intelligent life after all.

Three months is already close to the limit, and after that, there is a possibility of exposure. Mephistopheles didn't believe in 'probability' in such a big matter.

"You did well, Momong."

He casually praised him, although in the devil's perception, the human being in front of him was not as respectful as he appeared, but he didn't care much.

After all, doing one thing in front of others and another behind the scenes was a basic skill that once belonged to Silver Humans.

"When I accept the award from the Lord of Nine Hells, as the first human to surrender to me, you will also get what you want."

"As for now, just enjoy this rare scene with me."

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency. The destruction of bronze humans is indeed a rare sight."

Lowering his head slightly, as if he didn't care that the person being 'appreciated' was the death of the same kind, Momen responded respectfully.

But beyond his expectation, the devil denied his guess.

"No, that's not what I'm talking about."

"When I say 'rare to see', I mean the death of the son of the sea god who rode the waves."

With a leisurely tone, Mephistopheles seemed to smile.

"The death of the Son of God is interesting, isn't it?"

".Yes."

Turning his head to look in the direction where the waves and beast roars came from, although Momeng's gaze could not penetrate the obstacle, for some reason, he was indeed looking forward to it at the moment.

In his heart, Momen really wanted to know, what is the difference between the children of gods and mortals when they die?
