Reincarnation Tower: While others are trying to survive, I will gain points.
Chapter 551 The gods are crazy!
Chapter 551 The gods are crazy!
"The magic sword draws thunder!" Sikong Yi is worthy of being a person who has practiced in Eastern mythology and under the guidance of a heavenly master. This move can clearly show his extraordinary and uniqueness.
It can even be said that before Jiang Xun could react, Sikong Yi's magic sword had already collided head-on with the lightning that was thicker than a bucket. The lightning flashed on the sword, emitting a terrifying light of destruction, and also made them aware of the attacker's malicious intentions.
They all knew without thinking that there was only one person in this world who could cause such thunder, and that was the current king of gods, the head of the twelve main gods of Olympus, the king of gods, the lord of thunder, the king of gods - Zeus!
Sure enough, the hint from the Tower of Reincarnation was not aimless, but came from an accurate information channel. At least Jiang Xun didn't know that Zeus could actually send down lightning so violently and find their current location directly, and brought down divine punishment without hesitation!
At this moment, Sikong Yi had already guided the lightning to the surrounding wasteland, causing a dull explosion to sound on the ground.
The thunder was guided away, but above their heads, the huge lightning energy was obviously still brewing.
Sikong Yi said hurriedly, "Get out of the way quickly, this is the power of heaven and earth, not the power of gods, I can't block it even a few times!"
Thor was even more straightforward, "I can guide the lightning to fall around us in advance, but I don't dare to do it. After all, it's like we are trapping ourselves in a cage!"
Everyone knew this, but before they could react, another horrifying light descended. It was the light from the sun. The horrifying sunlight carried such powerful energy that it was going to melt this place, along with the people and the land!
"Emperor Yin, let's go!" Jiang Xun said quickly. He knew that they had to leave now. Not only Zeus had discovered them, but even Apollo had discovered them, which meant that the entire Mount Olympus was watching them.
It’s not that he doesn’t have the power to overturn the table, but his purpose in this world cannot be solved by overturning the table, otherwise Jiang Xun would have done it long ago.
They need to understand the situation of the world and understand why the world hates him, and then they can think of ways to resolve this crisis.
Therefore, the easiest way is naturally to let Yin Tianzi take them away.
Possessing the authority of the God of the Underworld, the God of Death and the Emperor of Yin, he can directly lead everyone away from this real world and go to the underworld!
After all, this is the world of Greek mythology. In addition to the real world, there are also special places such as the Tartarus Abyss, Purgatory, and the Underworld that are beyond the reach of humans but do exist.
The other two places are where the gods of creation and the terrifying twelve Titans lie, but the underworld is the land of Hades, the god of the underworld.
Now, Hades and Poseidon have both died in the Samsara Tower, causing its complete collapse or extreme collapse. Naturally, there will be no one in this underworld area.
Jiang Xun and his companions were directly pulled here by Yin Tianzi, and saw this special area which could even be described as a place where "demons were dancing wildly".
"It's a mess here..." Jiang Xun said with some emotion as he looked at the chaos in this area.
In his eyes, souls, skulls and all kinds of symbols of death made everything before his eyes filled with this special emotion and an even more special madness!
Yin Tianzi closed his eyes and said, "Let me understand a little bit."
He was absorbing the information here so that he could know the specific situation here, and soon he gave his own answer.
"Because of the world, there is no God watching over this place, and many things have changed, so this place is filled with chaos!"
Yin Tianzi’s explanation was simple, but it also let them know the situation here.
Because this is the underworld, where only the dead come. Before Hades died, this was an underworld that he managed with his children and subordinates.
But now, he is dead, and the entire underworld has no ruler, so those gods started a terrible war for Hades' position as the King of the Underworld!
If Zeus were on the throne, such a war would never have happened. After all, the King of Gods still has to save face. If his subordinates are in war, where can he save his face?
But now, this situation has happened. Zeus seems to be completely indifferent to this place, but the thunder just now proved that he is not dead at all, so...
"This world is bound to be undergoing enormous, even terrifying changes... I hope this is just my wishful thinking and not the truth!" Jiang Xun said, "But gentlemen, we may really have to prepare for the worst!"
The desolation of this world when he first came and the chaos of the underworld he saw now gave him many bad premonitions.
And such premonitions often come true...which is too bad.
Therefore, at the suggestion of Yin Tianzi, they decided to investigate this underworld area first, at least to know the situation of this world. Although they have learned about the special crisis of this world, such as the human beings who need to be saved and the deserted land, they can prove that the current world is indeed unusual, and it can even be said to be... on the verge of death.
This was Jiang Xun's feeling. After all, he was an apprentice creator. As a creator, his premonition must be correct. That is to say, in the danger caused by some crisis, this world was gradually heading towards death.
This is amazing. This is a world with true God. In this case, how did this world die?
Several people chose to search for any living people or creatures in this underworld area.
However, at the first glance, their feeling was not very good. It could even be said that it felt very bad, because the soil of the underworld was much more dilapidated and desolate than they had imagined.
In fact, the underworld in Western mythology is very different from the hell in Eastern mythology. At least it is not a dead place. Instead, there are all kinds of plants, grasses and water. There is even the sun belonging to the underworld, and many more things.
But now, there is nothing here. They came to the gate of hell, but only saw the broken gate of hell and Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound that had been dead for a long time. The surrounding poplars and coconut trees had lost their vitality and died in this area.
They continued forward and should have come to a big river called the River of Pain, but now the river had dried up, and countless undead were trying to crawl from one side of the river to the other.
As for the ferryman on this river, he has long disappeared, leaving only this ferryboat.
In the original myth, the boatman named "Charon" is the ferryman on this river, carrying souls to the vast pastoral of truth to be judged and thus obtain their future.
It could be going to Tartarus to be punished, or it could be going to Elysian Paradise to enjoy happiness. This is the final story of death in Greek mythology.
But now, all of this is gone. The land of death has begun to dry up and crack. Even the souls without money can climb to this special pastoral of truth as the river disappears to find their own future.
On the judgment platform in front of the Garden of Truth, the three judges of the underworld, Aiacos, Minos and Rhadamanthys, had also disappeared, leaving only the special land where the endless dead souls were still wailing. In other words, from the entrance of the underworld to here, they didn't even see a single god, only the dead souls running around everywhere, still surviving here.
The only god is the dead big dog Cerberus!
"It seems that the underworld of this world is indeed dead!" Jiang Xun said, looking at Yin Tianzi, "Then, are there any living creatures here?"
Yin Tianzi knew what he meant and no longer hesitated. Instead, he released his death divinity in this world.
The next second, the undead, which were already in disorder, suddenly turned around and looked at him. These dead creatures naturally didn't know what this feeling was like, they were just attracted to this special feeling.
Then, Yin Tianzi put away his godhood, allowing the undead to return to their dullness and confusion. He then pointed to the north and said, "Over there, there is a breath that does not belong to the undead. It is very faint, but it does exist!"
"Let's go and take a look!" Jiang Xun said. The five people stopped talking and walked forward.
Then, they saw the second great river of the underworld, Kocytus, which means "distant cry". Because this river was built by people serving sentences in hell, it has the meaning of terrible disaster, so there are almost no people here.
But in this place where there were no people and no ghosts, they found a small boat and a person shivering in the boat.
"It looks like this is the survivor!" Huangfu Yu said, and hurried forward, pulling the boat to the river bank.
At this time, the trembling man slowly raised his head and looked at Jiang Xun and others with some doubt, "You... are not the gods of Mount Olympus?"
"Of course not!" Huangfu Yu said, "We are unexpected travelers who came here to ask you something!"
"Don't ask, there is nothing to ask, I am just a boatman!" he said, and his old arms took out a long pole from the cabin, "Even if there is no river, I can ferry myself!"
"Is the son of the God of Creation Erebus and Nyx such a wimp?" Jiang Xun's words startled the old man, "Is this the traveler you are talking about? The traveler who knows my identity?"
He stared at Jiang Xun intently, "Yes, I am Charon, come on, kill me!"
Jiang Xun shook his head, "I didn't come here to kill you, but for the future and hope of this world! The gods are irrelevant, but the world cannot be destroyed!"
"Charon, we want you to tell us what happened to this world and why it became like this?"
Charon also looked at them. "I know you have great power, but I can't guarantee that you can survive in this world! Even if you survive, what can I get?"
"How about getting a completely new position?" Yin Tianzi stood up, "For example, the ferry god of the entire underworld or even the entire human world!"
"I will rebuild the entire underworld, and as the remaining god, you should also know the status you can obtain."
He had the confidence to say such words. The breath of death spreading from his body let the other party know that he had the ability and determination to do such a thing.
Charon pondered for a while, and finally sighed, "Alas... This may be the best way. Ask, and I will try my best to tell you the answer."
"Where have the gods here gone?" Sikong Yi asked. This was something he was concerned about.
"After the death of Hades, half of the gods of the underworld disappeared, and the remaining half responded to Zeus' call and launched a special cleansing war, or you could say it was a war of gods!" Charon said.
"What is the cleansing war?" Now everyone knew what to ask.
"Clear out all the gods except those on Mount Olympus, such as the Titans, various evil gods, sons of gods, and even the ancient gods of heaven and nature!"
"I was also within the cleanup area, so I hid!"
Huangfu Yu was a little confused, "This is really digging their own graves, are they crazy?"
"Yes! They are crazy!" Charon said firmly.
"The moment Hades and Poseidon disappeared, all the gods on Mount Olympus went crazy! They began to slaughter the weak gods wantonly, just to increase their own strength a little bit. In order to increase their own strength, they did not hesitate to attack everyone. Facing all this, Zeus not only did not stop them, but also used his remaining authority to release all the crazy gods, giants and even ancient gods in the abyss of Tartarus!"
"Then, the war between gods began. Endless disasters occurred on earth, and all gods went crazy! They seemed to think that they could win this war between gods, so wars broke out everywhere!"
"The Olympian gods and the Titans have launched a horrific world-destroying war. They are fighting in the human world, in the divine world, in the sky, and in any place where gods exist. And they are fighting non-stop!"
"They destroy mountains and seas, they destroy the world, they overthrow everything, and they attack all dimensions!"
"And the Underworld is just the first battle they strike!"
Charon's answer relieved some of their doubts, but at the same time, a bigger doubt also emerged, which was...
"That's not right. Since the fighting was so fierce in the underworld, why are there so many souls here?" Jiang Xun asked curiously. This is not the hell in Eastern mythology or the Bible where souls and the dead will be reborn again.
In this crude world system, death is real death, and the death of the soul is a direct and complete extinction. There has been a war between gods, so why are there still so many people here?
"What if I tell you that these souls are all new?" Charon's words made everyone's heart violent and terrified like a storm!
These souls are new, so where the old ones have gone is obvious!
