Kratos crawled into the Hydra's throat and found the captain who had been swallowed. However, he only snatched the key from the captain's neck and kicked the captain into the Hydra's stomach.
Kratos charged into the cabin and saw the slaughtered mortals. He recalled the past that he had always wanted to forget …
He drifted on the ocean, sailing from one harbor to another, serving the Olympian gods. All his hopes lay in the gods' forgiveness.
However, no matter how much he drank or how many women he slept with, he couldn't get rid of the horrible nightmares that had been tormenting him …
"Athena!!"
"It's been ten years, Athena! I've served the gods for ten years! When will you be willing to lift my nightmares?! "
Kratos questioned the statue of Athena angrily.
"We need you to complete the last task, Kratos. Your greatest challenge awaits you in Athens. My brother, the God of War, Ares, is attacking Athens. As we speak, Athens is on the verge of destruction … "
With the help of Athena's godly power, Kratos saw what was happening in the distant Athens. The flames of war engulfed the whole city, and the sounds of weapons clashing and screams could be heard everywhere. Buildings were burning and collapsing, and everything was destroyed in the flames of war.
"Zeus forbade the gods from fighting each other. That's why I chose you. Because only a mortal has a chance to defeat Ares."
"Complete this final task, and all the crimes you've committed in the past will be forgiven!"
"Have faith, Kratos. The gods won't forget the mortals who helped them … "
The camera zoomed out. In front of the huge ship, the city of Athens, which was burning in flames, appeared. Kratos once again embarked on his journey.
Then, the surrounding illusion gradually disappeared, and Lin Xue found herself back in the seaside mansion in The Oasis.
"That's it??"
Lin Xue was completely dumbfounded. At first, she was inexplicably panicked when she was caught by the huge ogre and thrown into a new game. However, after killing the huge Hydra, she became arrogant. This was because this Kratos was obviously a game character who would kill anyone who stood in his way. He was completely different from the previous characters who made players suffer madly.
The cool combination of free combat and QTE made the boss battles of this game even more visually impactful. The scene where the Hydra was pierced by the ship's mast was still deeply engraved in Lin Xue's mind, and Kratos's back couldn't be erased for a long time.
Besides, the short part of the game had left the players in suspense. For example, they wondered what Kratos' past was, why he had fought for the Olympian gods for ten years, what was the nightmare that haunted him, and why he was so cold and heartless that he didn't even want to save people …
With this suspense and the prospect of liberation, Kratos sailed toward the war-torn Athens, waiting for the final battle with the powerful God of War, Ares …
However … there was nothing after that?!
Although there had been countless cliffhangers, this one was especially hard to accept. In the previous cliffhangers, Chen Mo at least told everyone in advance that the game was still in beta and could be cut off at any time. However, this time, the players were thrown into the game without any mental preparation …
Lin Xue cursed. She glanced at the friends on her Thunderbolt Entertainment Pass and saw that many of them were in the game. However, they weren't in World of Warcraft but the trial version of God of War.
"So, this new game is called God of War? Yeah, it's quite appropriate, but Ares is the real God of War, right? "
Lin Xue noticed that some of her friends weren't in the beta version of God of War, but God of War, which meant that the game was available for purchase.
"Damn it, buy it, buy it! Are we still human if we don't buy it?"
Although World of Warcraft was great, you couldn't solo bosses and farm equipment in World of Warcraft. Just the two Door Gods in Molten Core could wipe out forty players for a week or two. If it was Kratos, it would just be a matter of a few QTEs.
Yeah, as long as there were QTEs, he could kill any kind of god.
Lin Xue soon found the entrance to God of War outside of the seaside mansion. It was a war altar, and the Blade of Chaos was stabbed into the altar. As long as she tied the chain of the Blade of Chaos around her hand, she would be able to turn into Kratos and enter the world of God of War.
"Huh? It's bought in sections?! And it's divided into four sections? "
Lin Xue walked up to the altar, and the details of God of War immediately appeared on it. It was divided into God of War 1 to 4, and each section was bought separately. The cost of each section was the standard price of 980 yuan for a VR game. Moreover, there was a discount of 2,980 yuan for all four sections.
Lin Xue: "Damn it, they're forcing me to buy them together …"
Lin Xue had to admit that the discount was amazing. It was like buying three and getting one free.
However, on second thought, she remembered that the collection of the Mystical Sea Realm series was at the same price and even more expensive. She didn't hesitate when she bought it …
"I'll buy it! I'll buy it!" Lin Xue made an impulsive purchase at lightning speed.
…
On the forum, Chen Mo's' surprise 'soon became a hot topic among the players.
Everyone's reaction was basically the same as Lin Xue's. In the beginning, they all entered sleep mode in a daze and prepared to explore. In the end, they were all thrown down by the ogres who suddenly popped out, then possessed Kratos' body and experienced the pleasure of cutting grass.
Then came the familiar cliffhanger.
Chen Mo didn't force them to buy it. He didn't even advertise it. He just put the war altar and the Blade of Chaos in Oasis and asked them if they would buy it or not …
The players' discussions were mostly focused on two points – 'grass cutting game' and 'new QTEs'.
"Why do I have a feeling that this game is really a grass cutting game?"
"Chen Mo didn't advertise it as a grass cutting game, so it's probably a real grass cutting game …"
"To be honest, isn't this the only lawnmowing game after Killing the Proto-2?"
"I don't think we should be too optimistic. Don't make such a conclusion before playing all four sections. Think about Heavenly State's Monster Abuse …"
"But I feel that this game is really f * cking awesome! Moreover, the new QTEs make combat more varied. The scene of the Hydra being nailed to the mast was really cool! And I have a feeling that this isn't the only one. The bosses in the future will definitely be executed in a specific way. It's cool just thinking about it! "
