"Sorry, this area is not open for the time being."
As more and more gods began to explore around, more and more people received similar prompts in their ears.
This time, not only the God of Tarot Cards, but the other gods also had a change of expression.
"Why is this happening?"
"Is Gaim playing tricks on us? Even at this time, he still wants to plot against us?"
"What is Gaim trying to do? Does he want to imprison us in this godforsaken place forever?"
"What about Isis? Who was close to her before she came in? You know where she went."
"…"
The gods were in an uproar, trying their best to figure out what was going on. Unfortunately, there were all sorts of guesses and only a few useful suggestions.
That was when someone finally noticed Kronos, who had been looking on coldly and silently, and asked him, "God of Time, do you have any good suggestions for our current predicament?"
"Wait."
Kronos opened his mouth and spat out a word.
"Wait? Wait for what? " Hercules frowned. "The guy in the city under the ice is still behind us. I don't know if the God of War can destroy the door. We'd better find Gaim or Iciz as soon as possible. At least we can cut off the passage before we talk about other things."
Kronos snorted coldly. He did not want to explain anymore, but when he saw other gods looking at him, he knew that if they wanted to leave this place in the future, they would need help from others. Now, he must unite all the forces that could be united, so he continued patiently.
"Since Gaim has gone this far and taken all of us into his calculations, it's impossible for him to be unprepared for the situation outside. He has a special relationship with the God of Chaos, so he must have made arrangements both here and outside. Besides, we're in his territory now, so there's no other way but to wait.
Hercules' brows loosened slightly. He had to admit that what Kronos said sounded reasonable, but he could not help but ask, "How long do we have to wait in this godforsaken place? A day, a week, or a month? If Gaim doesn't come looking for us, won't we have to wait until the seas run dry and the rocks decay? "
"Although the situation you mentioned is also possible, the probability is very small," Cronos said. "Geim is not a lunatic like Seth. Everything he does has a strong logic behind it. Just by looking at the decoration and layout of this place, you can see that this is just an area similar to a transit station. Normally, we won't stay here for too long."
And as if to confirm Kronos's words, not long after he finished speaking, the large screen in the center of the lounge and all the hanging televisions lit up.
After five months, the Gods were finally able to see that young and tender face again!
Gaim, the God of Games, appeared on the screen with a pair of sleepy eyes. He looked like a primary school student who had just played games all night but still had to wake up early for school.
While many were displeased with Gaim's act of trapping them in the lounge, he was still the leader of the gods and his accumulated authority remained. Especially now that Cthulhu had broken free from his underwater cage and was on a killing spree in the mortal realm, forcing the gods to hide in the new world like stray dogs.
In such a moment, both old and new gods reminisced about the days when Gaim was still around.
Some of them were so moved that their eyes were brimming with tears when they saw Gaim. Even so, the God of Games himself appeared rather awkward, and scratched his head as he adjusted the camera in front of him. As if using the time to organize his words, he finally said, "Welcome, welcome to the Station."
"Station?" Kronos raised his brow. "So, this place is really just a transit station. Still, I wonder where the train in this station leads to?"
"To the various dungeons in the game world," the boy quickly answered as if he could hear Kronos's question.
The gods were left in an uproar at that. They had accepted Gaim's invitation to build the game world, but they never knew that there was a place called the station hidden in that world.
Of course, Gaim had gone missing for four months, and while he could build a new location with his power, connecting the new area called the station to the various dungeons was a very difficult task, and it was basically equivalent to redoing half the game from scratch.
Therefore, there was only one explanation for the current situation, and that was that this area called the station had been part of Gaim's plan ever since he started building the grand game world he had imagined. It was just that he had hidden it, and no one else knew about it except for him.
It was only today that it was put to use and welcomed its first guests.
That was when even Pan who didn't like to use his brain reacted, lowering his goat-horned head. "Gaim, esteemed God of Games. Why would you leave such a zone behind our backs?"
"So that the game can enter the third phase." Gaim answered every question.
"The third phase? What third stage? We thought we had already agreed that this game was only for the human players, "the God of Motor said." The first stage is convenient for us to choose our favorite agents, and the second stage is for those agents to kill each other to resolve the conflict between us, abandon those ancient and bloody traditions, and step into the era of civilization. As for the third stage, what is it? "
Gaim was silent for a moment, before speaking again. "I'm sorry. I've hidden certain things from everyone before, and I'm sure some of you have guessed by now what my real purpose in building this game is."
"Are you mad?!" Kronos retorted, scowling. "You may be the strongest among us, but what right do you have to decide our fate? Where we live? "
His words received the approval of a number of gods.
Be that as it may, Gaim had recovered from his initial shyness, and scratched his head in response to the God of Time's question. "Didn't all of you enter my game world to seek refuge because you had nowhere else to go?"
Kronos was speechless.
"And if you really think about it, isn't this trouble caused by you, Kronos? You were the one who brought that human out of the city under the ice, made him your agent, and at the same time covered up his true identity."
