8. Negotiate with the Grim Reaper
The suite we were assigned to was very large, with an indoor hallway behind a hall and five standard rooms on the side of the hallway. Not to mention the size of this room, if you use the hall, there is absolutely no problem for fifteen people.
After the door was closed, several of us were able to relax, not only mentally, but most importantly physically. In addition to the rest room, there is a small indoor shower room at the end of the corridor, in the summer after a long day of walking, several of us are almost covered in sweat, at this time to take a shower and then lie leisurely on the bed for a while, this is definitely a pleasant thing.
I was in the best physical condition of the few, so I was also the last one to take a shower, and I went into the shower and just turned on the water, when suddenly there was a "pop" at my feet, and I looked down.
Damn it! It's a bar of soap!
"Who the fuck plays with my ?!!" I scolded and turned my head, and there was a real person standing behind me, and it was a familiar face.
"How did you get in?" I stared at the old man dressed as a priest in front of me in amazement and asked, "By the way, where the did you learn this vulgar joke?" I even threw soap! ”
"I know no less than you do." The old priest replied with a blank face.
Of course, he wasn't much of a pastor. I knew him, his mythological name was Danatus, he was a god of death, but he appeared in a place where he wasn't supposed to be, and he ran behind me and threw soap, which was weird anyway, very, very weird.
"What do you want to do? Zeus asked you to come? Or are you acting behind your boss's back again? I asked.
"Zeus......" Death whispered, the expression on his face looking a little complicated.
The Grim Reaper had also said before that he had a relationship with the god of fire. The god of fire is a god who tends to be mortal, so the gods define him as an evil god. As for Danatus, the god of death, in mythology he is Zeus's subordinate and the follower of the three goddesses of fate, because the god is immortal, so the power of the god of death is only effective for mortals, and because of this, the god of death does not seem to be welcomed in the world of gods, and can basically be regarded as a bag of anger. If there must be some kind of connection between the god of death and the god of fire, I don't think they have a good relationship with the gods, which is probably the only thing in common between the two gods.
I watched as Death waited for his answer, but this guy stood in front of me without saying a word, and I was a little embarrassed by this scene, after all, I was still in the shower, with no clothes on me, and a bar of soap on the floor.
"I said, what the hell do you want to do? If there's nothing to do, you can go out first, I'm tired and ready to go sleep. "I urged the Grim Reaper.
"Do you want to know what I said to Hades that night?" The Grim Reaper finally spoke, and although he didn't answer my question directly, the topic he brought up really made me curious.
"I promised him that he would help get rid of the three goddesses, so he was willing to leave, and I cut him down just so that he could go back and have an explanation." Danats Road.
"The three goddesses are the three goddesses of fate?" I asked.
"Yes. But I can't do it with my strength, and neither can Hades. "Death said.
"Because the power of death can't work against the gods?"
"No!" Danatus shook his head, "You have a problem with your understanding of the gods, and myths and stories have been misleading you. ”
The words of death made me frown, indeed, the first thing that comes to my mind when I think of God is the various descriptions of gods in mythological stories. I now know that God is a set of special electrical signals that affect the ** brain, and these guys who appear in front of me as mortals are either dummies that appear after my brain receives these signal stimuli, or they are ordinary people who are possessed by these gods, saying that the power of God is only effective for mortals, in fact, as long as it is effective for mortals, it is enough, or that the power of God should be directed at mortals.
"Then I'll correct it, you can deal with any god, right?"
"I can't." The Grim Reaper said with a poker face.
"Big brother, are you playing with me? What exactly are you trying to say? Don't tell me you need to take my soul again, I'm sorry, I still have to keep my soul, I can't give it to you! I said.
"I don't want your soul, I just want to tell you that you may have chosen the wrong side."
"Choosing the wrong camp? What do you mean? ”
"I also just found out, why would the goddess of fate follow you?"
"Goddess of Fate? You mean...... Lucky God? "I could hear it myself, my voice was a little shaky.
"Well, there's that too, but it doesn't matter, the point is her essence. I don't judge which of the two life forms, man and God, is superior, but if one of the two can easily dominate the survival of the other, then there is only one outcome. ”
"Is it aggression?" I said.
The Grim Reaper nodded.
"Wait, my mind is a bit messed up right now, I need to clean it up! First of all, the god of fortune is actually one of the three goddesses of fate, or there are no three goddesses at all, it is a lot of fate gods who can affect people's fortunes, and now she is the most powerful, right? ”
"Yes, that's okay for you to understand that." Death Godway.
"Okay, now let's talk about the second one! The goddess of fate told me that she would help me fight the gods and become the lord of the gods, and I knew that her purpose would be more than pure. Judging from the actions of the goddess of fate all along, it seems that she has always wanted to sabotage the plan of the gods to return to the divine realm, if she really becomes the lord of the gods, then she will definitely not return to the divine realm, but will always stay in the human world! Right? ”
"Yes, there are some gods who prefer to stay on earth, such as me, Hades, and the goddess of fate." The Grim Reaper replied in the affirmative.
"You should be here to facilitate access to food, I mean to eat human souls. The god of good fortune...... No, it's the goddess of fate, she stayed in the world to be king? ”
"Not to be king, but to become a god, and she wants to be a god that people fear again." Death Godway.
"Become a god? How to become a god? Isn't she a god now? "I didn't really understand what Death was saying.
"No!" The Grim Reaper shook his head very hard, "The situation has changed a lot, and now people no longer have faith in gods, and the goddess of fate is not even as good as me." After saying that, the corners of Death's mouth were curled up, and it seemed that these gods had also contracted the vanity of mortals after possessing people.
"If the goddess of fate succeeds, what will happen to us?" I asked.
"I don't know, maybe your lives haven't changed the same. There has been a long time in history when people have been dominated by God, and I don't know how much of this influence is, but from what I know of you, you probably won't allow this to happen, right? ”
"I can understand you as a kind of alien, if aliens are going to dominate humanity, the world's armies will fight back." I didn't even need to think about it, and I replied directly.
"That's why I said you chose the wrong camp."
I didn't respond immediately, but pondered what the Grim Reaper had said. The Lucky God does give me a strange feeling, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she has ill intentions, and she has always used Zhu Yue to blackmail me, which shows that she is wrong.
But the Grim Reaper is not a good kind, and I should choose to believe in a Grim Reaper who almost deceived my soul? Or do you choose to believe in a blessed god who has really helped me?
Or maybe I have a third option, kill them all!
"Are you trying to kill us all?"
The dead man's sudden words made me stunned, but I quickly calmed my expression, and I knew that God's mind-reading skills were not working for me.
"I'm just wondering if I should trust you or not. Also, if I choose to trust you, what can you do to kill the goddess of fate? If the goddess of fate died, who would limit the actions of the other gods? I don't want to see a bunch of uncontrolled gods coming to the world, running around and killing people everywhere. I took a stand.
"I can't guarantee anything, but I know that the vast majority of gods want to leave the mortal world and return to their own territory, but the method may be a little unacceptable to you. I also want to emphasize that I think God is more afraid of people than they are afraid of God. Think about it, how many gods have you killed so far? Is God really powerful? ”
Death's words hit the nail on the head again.
It's true that I'm just an ordinary person, and I don't even use any yin and yang techniques, but I've already killed a bunch of gods in a daze, and people like Changle and them seem to have subdued the White Tiger God for their own use. It's like people talking about sharks, but thousands of times more sharks are killed or killed by sharks every year.
"Then I'll ask you one last question, and I hope you can answer me truthfully." I'm in the right way.
Death made a "please" gesture at me.
"Aside from a few people on my side, are there other god-killers in the world? And there are quite a few of them? I asked.
"I haven't counted it specifically, but in terms of the number, there may be more people who can kill gods than the gods who strayed into the world this time, you just happened to be closer to the whole event, and the other god killers are more in seclusion and will not show up in a high-profile manner."
The Grim Reaper's answer was also expected by me, which was also very logical, and the most important thing was that the pressure on me was suddenly gone.
I'm not the only one who kills gods, the human world doesn't need me to save it, I'm just forced to fight with these gods for self-preservation. As long as I can save my life, I don't need to worry too much about whether these gods can't go back, after all, there are other god killers, if the world is really in chaos, let them clean up the mess when the time comes!
Thinking of this, the conclusion has also come out.
I took a deep breath, then nodded at the Grim Reaper and said, "Okay, you go kill the goddess of fate, I'll help you!" But there is one thing, you must guarantee Zhu Yue's life, she is my very important friend, if she dies, then don't care if you have a good relationship with Loki, I still ended up with you, don't think that I don't have this ability now! ”
Death smiled slightly, then held out his hand that was as dry as wood to me.
"Hopefully we can have a good time together." Death smiled at me.
