Behind the hillside full of valerian was a forest.
There was a wooden hut in the forest. The natural scenery around the hut was very good. There was even a small stream flowing outside the door. The branches of the unknown ancient trees seemed to be intertwined with each other by some mysterious force, weaving into a huge canopy that blocked all the sunlight.
But other than the lighting, this was probably the kind of forest vacation cabin that everyone wanted to "build for themselves".
The owner of the cabin had a rather strange hobby. His pets were not cats or dogs, but a group of crows. However, they seemed to be a little different from ordinary crows. They quietly perched on the roof and branches, not making any noise, as if they were asleep.
In the pitch-black room, a pale man suddenly woke up from his feather bed with a black curtain.
His forehead was covered in sweat, and his eyes were flickering. But what caught people's attention was the pair of wings behind him. When spread out, they were four meters long and two meters tall, as if they were going to fill the entire room.
However, if someone paid attention, they would see that the pair of wings were also trembling slightly.
But the next moment, someone plucked the harp, and the melodious and soothing sound of the harp drifted into the man's ears through the door, calming his mind again. He sat on the bed for a while, then stood up, put on his slippers, and walked to the table to pick up the half-empty bottle of Coke on it.
The added sugar also helped him to calm down further, but when he looked at his slightly bulging belly, he couldn't help but sigh.
He threw the empty bottle of Coke into the trash can at the side, then pushed the door open, but when he saw the figure on the sofa in the living room, he could not help but frown.
"Thank you, Pasitia, for your amazing performance. I feel like I'm sitting in the Golden Hall in Vienna, and I have to take off my hat to pay my respects to you," the old man in funny clothes on the sofa applauded after the music ended.
A white-haired old woman nodded and thanked him, then put away the harp, and walked out of the cabin shakily.
After she closed the door, the man looked at the old man warily and asked, "Why are you here?"
The old man did not answer. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Grace, one of the three goddesses of beauty. I still remember how beautiful she was back then. She reminded me of Daphne. No wonder you couldn't help but offend Zeus for her. By the way, how's your waist? It must have been hard to fall from such a high place, right?"
"So, did you come here just to mock us?"
"No, I'm just lamenting the passing of time. The Goddess from back then has also grown old."
"Pasitia's condition isn't very good. After all, there are too few people who know her name now," the man said. "If this continues, it won't be long before she disappears from this world."
"This is truly regrettable." The old man said, "But this is the fate of the old guys, isn't it? After all, nothing can fight against time. One day, the world will forget all of us."
The man snorted. "Is that so? But I see that you've been jumping around quite happily recently. I heard that you even went to Silicon Valley to find that guy."
"Hatred and disgust can't help us survive. The development of things is the law of nature," the old man said.
"So, are you planning to follow the law of nature and completely betray us and join the opposite camp?" The man took a knife from the wall and walked toward the old man. "Listen to the way you talk now. You're as disgusting as those guys. I should also tell the others to be wary of you. Oh, I almost forgot. Time is such a ruthless thing. You only look forward and never look back, don't you?"
The latter shrugged. "Listen to what you're saying, Hypnos. You should know that no one is more nostalgic than me. I'm the only one who remembers those names that have disappeared in history. I told you that no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can come to me. My door will always be open for you."
Hypnos snorted coldly, sat down next to the old man, took an apple from the fruit plate, and peeled it with a knife. "This is a mistake. We shouldn't have agreed to their request to play games in the first place. We should have followed those ancient traditions, gathered everyone together, and fought them. Yes, we may be at a disadvantage, but we have defeated the giants, and we can also win this war. I don't know what you did to make Zeus agree to such an obviously crazy request."
"Unfortunately, we can't," the old man explained patiently. The old man explained patiently, "This is completely different from the war with the Titan Tribe. Based on the situation back then, we would have died if we had continued fighting. This is the best outcome for us."
"Not for me," Hypnos said. "Pasitia is so weak that she can't wait for the next game. I must help her get a good result in this game."
"Do you have anyone to choose from?"
"Yes, I did meet someone this time. The girl named Shen Xixi. I've been paying attention to her for a while … but this time, I encountered something else in the dream." Shupnus recalled the scenes he had seen in his dream, and he could not help but shiver. He then saw the corners of the old man's mouth curling up, and he immediately realized something. He asked warily, "Did you come to me because of this?"
"Yes," the old man admitted. "I hope you can forget what you saw."
"Does he have something to do with you?" Hypnos took a bite of the apple.
"I'm doing this for your own good. Sometimes it's not a good thing to know too much," the old man said.
"Are you crazy? Why do you want to provoke that thing?!" Hypnos said angrily. "Do you think we don't have enough enemies now? The people over there don't want to touch it. Are you stupid? If it wakes up, it will be a disaster for all of us! Thanks to the stupid humanistic works of mortals, its name is now known to everyone. All of us combined can't even compare to its little finger. Can't you see it? It's everywhere in newspapers, movies, and games! "" Calm down, calm down, Hypnos.
"Calm down, calm down, Hypnos. Of course, I have my own plans for doing this," the old man said leisurely. "So far, the situation is still under my control. How about this? In exchange, I can help Pasitia find an excellent agent. Well, that girl named Shen Xixi might not be able to do it because someone else is already eyeing her. She has entered the probation period, but I can help you find someone else. And Seth, I can also help you solve this problem and stop him from replicating your Dreamland of Death. That way, you won't have to run around like crazy anymore."
