A four-wheeled chariot galloped across the night sky and finally landed on the tarmac in front of a villa.
The villa alone covered an area of more than a thousand square meters. In addition, it had a yard filled with all kinds of expensive flowers, a tarmac, a swimming pool, an underground garage, and a private dock not far away.
A woman in pajamas was drinking red wine in a private bar upstairs. The next moment, she saw the door of her house being pushed open. The moment she saw who it was, her face was filled with shock and confusion.
"Sorry to disturb your rest, Plutto. It's just that the situation is urgent, and we would like to borrow your place for a while. The main reason is that it's difficult for us to find a place that's bigger and less disturbed than yours," the Night Goddess said.
The woman named Plutto tightened the collar of her pajamas. Of course, she was not happy that someone had barged in. But since things had come to this, she could only force a smile on her face, especially when she saw the few people behind the Night Goddess. She nodded and said, "Of course, but why do you want to borrow this small place of mine?"
"Gather everyone."
"Gather everyone? Why, are you having a party here? "
"No, we are here to discuss how to survive and save the world," Anubis said.
"Save the world? Uh, are you filming Avengers 5? I must say, your lineup is pretty good. "
"No, we are serious," the God of Electricity, who came in next, said.
"Oh." Plutto's face showed obvious disgust. "A New God? Why, is he your prisoner?"
"No, he is our companion," Ares, the God of War, said. "We need to unite all the forces that can be united now."
"Do what?" Pluto was shocked. Ares had always been a warmonger among the Old Gods. Long before the war began, he had always advocated that this war was inevitable. In that case, it was better to fight earlier than later. Moreover, his attitude towards the New Gods had always been extremely tough. He believed that the word "companion" would be associated with those fellows of the New Gods.
In the end, before the others could answer, they heard a long, low horn sound. There were a total of four sounds, two long and two short. The sound was filled with tension and depression before the war.
"Heimdall? He's here too? "Pluto was completely dumbfounded." He even blew his horn on the roof of my building? Is he going to summon all the Norse gods? "
"Not just the Norse gods. Anubis and I will also inform the Greek and Egyptian gods," Ares said solemnly.
"I've already notified the New God while I was in the carriage," the God of Electricity added.
"Are you planning to call everyone here? But where are the enemies? Wait a minute, "Pluto seemed to have thought of something." Aren't you going to deal with that human named Heng tonight? What's the result? "
"He's already dead," Anubis said.
"So, this means that our troubles are gone, right?" Puluto scanned the faces of everyone present, but he did not see any relaxed expression on anyone's face. On the contrary, everyone's expression was solemn, which made Puluto nervous.
"We didn't kill him."
"Who is that? Other humans? "
"No, the master of R 'yleh has already completed his divine descent and completely seized that body. His soul has also been crushed."
Pluto was stunned, and the wine glass in his hand slipped from his fingers and fell on the carpet.
"We need to gather the others immediately!" Ares repeated again. "While that guy has just escaped, everyone should join forces. We still have a chance of winning. He will feed on fear, and the longer we drag this on, the stronger he will become!"
"Everyone," the Night Goddess said in a sorrowful tone, "the survival of the world rests on our shoulders."
…
Just as Heimdall and the others began to gather the gods, a battle conference was already underway in a plastic mold factory a thousand kilometers away from the villa.
There were not many people in the conference, probably less than twenty. The person presiding over the conference was a woman who looked like a secretary. She pushed up her glasses and said confidently, "Let me first introduce the current situation to everyone.
"Let me first introduce the current situation to everyone. The people we sent to join the pursuit team yesterday have now been wiped out. I've also asked the other guilds that went with us. They've also lost contact with their people. The only news from the players' side was sent by the commander of Silver Wing at 00: 49 in the evening. Everyone can listen for yourself."
After the secretary finished speaking, she pressed the play button on a recorder beside her.
The recording recorded a phone call. For some reason, the person on the other end paused for two seconds before saying in a hoarse voice, "Don't send any more reinforcements. I repeat, don't send any more reinforcements! He's here! "
"Who's here?" the woman on the other end of the phone asked.
However, the person on the other end no longer spoke. Then, there was the sound of a satellite phone falling to the ground, followed by intense gunshots and roars, as if the person who made the call was caught in a battle. But not long after, there was another scream.
After that, the tent finally quieted down. However, some gunshots and screams could still be heard outside the tent.
Everyone in the conference room listened attentively. When the recording ended, someone asked, "What about our people? Did our people send back any news?"
Although the secretary had said that this was the only news from the players, the people in the conference room seemed to have enough confidence in their people.
After that, the secretary also nodded and said, "Of course. Our people replied with a sentence. No, to be exact, it was half a sentence. We have reason to believe that when he sent this message, his mental state was terrible, just like the people in those stories. However, our scientific training had paid off. He suppressed his mental discomfort and sent this message to us.
"I've helped you rearrange it — the operation has failed. (Missing subject) Leave the cage of R 'yleh.
"This message, combined with the satellite phone call, the fact that the search team was wiped out, and the fact that they suffered a severe mental attack, I'm afraid the worst has happened. The monster has broken free from the shackles of the stars and left the undersea prison."
Even though the secretary-like woman's expression didn't change much, her slightly trembling right index finger betrayed her true feelings. The conference room was in dead silence.
The person who asked the question earlier opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, no words came out. Just when the uneasiness began to spread in the conference room, footsteps came from outside the door.
