Chapter 655: Trembling with Fear
For a goal, he persisted for 7,000 years without changing his mind. After learning the real purpose, he reluctantly left his lover and suffered alone for hundreds of years, but his belief remained unchanged.
In the original plot, at the last moment, facing Circe, he was not cruel enough; he watched Circe turn the unborn god Tiamut into stone, and finally couldn't get over it, so he flew towards the sun alone and chose to commit suicide.
Therefore, in Jiang Shan's eyes, Ikaris's character is worthy of recognition.
Jiang Shan looked at him: "You are too nervous. Why do you run away when you see me?"
Ikaris took a breath and said, "Because I know I am no match for you. I am afraid."
What is he afraid of? He is definitely not afraid of death.
Jiang Shan waved his hand and said, "Sit down first. I didn't come here today to do anything to you. I stopped you from leaving because I hope that the next communication will be between all the Eternals on Earth, not just one or two less."
Then he looked at Ajak and said, "The appearance of the God of the Celestials is no secret to me. Of course, I didn't expect it to happen so soon."
Said: "Did you ask for help from Alisem?"
Ajak was silent for a moment, then said, "After the Sithorn incident, I communicated with Alisem and told him about the situation on Earth."
She looked conflicted and said, "It is our mission to welcome the God, but I cannot ignore the lives of billions of people on Earth."
Jiang Shan nodded: "So you throw this question back to Alisom."
Ajax pursed his lips.
Jiang Shan said: "Arisom did send you reinforcements. The Transformers of Cybertron are also creations of the gods, just like you."
"But I am good friends with Optimus Prime, the leader of Cybertron."
“Not long ago, I had a remote communication with him.
"He hoped that I could have the best of both worlds, to save the Earth and its human beings, and to allow Tiamut to be born smoothly. He said that if I couldn't do it, then when he arrived on Earth, I would have to kill him with my own hands."
The Eternals fell silent.
Diana couldn't help but ask, "You were communicating remotely with that Optimus Prime in my office?"
Jiang Shan nodded: "I know the Celestials, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. Twenty days ago, Bumblebee, Cybertron's diplomat stationed on Koros Island, came over and said that Optimus Prime wanted to communicate with me. You were there at the time."
Diana rolled her eyes after hearing this: "So, it took you more than 20 days to remember to communicate with him?"
This angle is extraordinary.
Jiang Shan was speechless.
He waved his hand and said, "That's probably what happened."
Diana said, "I have a few questions now. First, what are the Celestials and what are the Gods? Second, what are the Eternals and the Mutants?"
She said, "Circe never told me."
Circe next to him said, "We haven't decided what to do yet, so..."
Jiang Shan said, "Logically, the Olympian gods have dealt with the Celestials before, but you don't know. It seems that this information has not been passed down on Paradise Island."
Diana was surprised: "Have the Olympian gods ever dealt with the Celestials?"
Jiang Shan hesitated a little and said, "We should have dealt with each other before."
How to say it, the world background of the plot related to Diana is not the same as the world background of the plot related to the Celestials.
In the world background of the plot related to the Celestials, the gods born on Earth fought against the Celestials. Odin and Zeus were among them.
But in the world background of Diana's related plots, the Olympian gods are mostly powerful.
The simultaneous integration of two different world backgrounds into the real world will inevitably produce huge changes.
So Jiang Shan was a little hesitant.
He said: "It is hard to say where the gods came from; but the significance of their existence is to create planets with life and even light up stars. They are the embodiment of the creativity of the universe."
"The Supreme Celestial God Alisem releases the Celestial God seeds. These races seek out planets with life and take root in the cores of the planets, thereby giving birth to Celestial Gods. When Celestial Gods mature, they break open the planets and are born. This process is called the manifestation of Gods."
"Now you should know why they are struggling. Because the Eternals are the creations of the Celestials, their mission is to protect the development of intelligent life on the target planet. When intelligent life develops to a certain limit and meets the conditions for the birth of the Celestials, the appearance of the gods is inevitable."
"Once the gods appear, the planet will be destroyed, and all the intelligent creatures on the planet will be drained of all their vitality in an instant."
"They have survived on Earth for 'seven thousand years'." I put single quotation marks here because it is integrated into the plot. It is not really seven thousand years in reality. Seven thousand years is just in the plot.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"As intelligent creatures, they have integrated into the Earth and developed feelings for it."
“So it’s a torment, a dilemma.”
"As for the mutants, they were once creations of the gods, but they just lost control. I even suspect that the mutants were originally the Eternals. Just like them now, because of their mental torment, their character changed drastically, and they turned to the other extreme and became mutants."
After these words were spoken, the Eternals present couldn't help but have their own thoughts.
What Jiang Shan said makes sense.
The mutants were originally creations of the gods, but they chose to oppose the gods and feed on intelligent creatures. Their purpose is obvious - to prevent the growth of intelligent life groups on life planets and destroy the basic conditions for the birth of gods, thereby achieving the goal of curbing the birth of gods.
The Eternals present thought to themselves that if they could not get over this psychological barrier, their minds would eventually lose control and become another extreme, and they would really be no different from the mutants.
Zhu Ke understands this point best.
He is the Eternal member who is most determined to oppose the birth of the Celestials.
The Eternals were all thinking about their own things, while Diana frowned and said, "I know about the gods, but you haven't explained clearly what kind of relationship the Olympian gods have with the gods of heaven?"
Jiang Shan pondered for a moment: "Perhaps the Olympian gods left because of the persecution of the Celestials."
"Huh?!" Diana's eyes widened.
Jiang Shan said: "The Aesir had left Earth in the time of Bauer and established their own Asgard; but the Olympians seemed unwilling to leave Earth. The gods intended to let the planets with life develop freely, rather than under the control of the gods - Ajak has actually always adhered to the ideas of the gods."
He looked at Ajak: "You have been restricting your team members and prohibiting them from interfering in the internal struggles of humans."
Ajax nodded silently.
Jiang Shan glanced at Zhu Ke, and then continued to say to Diana: "The Olympian gods often interfere with human development. In many legends, they go too far, so they are most likely forced to leave by the gods."
