The audience was speechless.
Each time humanity unexpectedly gains hope, a series of unforeseen acts of despair follow.
Originally, everyone was extremely familiar with the million immortal warriors led by Zeus.
In the God King Ranking Tournament, players determine their rank by defeating these silent and immortal soldiers.
Next came the World Martial Arts Tournament, where the contestants competed against each other, and the rankings fluctuated.
Until eight of the most powerful master-level players emerge.
To date, three master-level players have fallen from grace: one was just coasting, and another has quit.
Through this battle of the gods, countless viewers came to realize...
Humans, at least most ordinary people, are absolutely incapable of contending with gods.
Even ordinary people who are hailed as the "strongest" cannot do it.
And now, something even more despairing has happened once again.
The million warriors who were originally under the command of Zeus, the king of the gods, betrayed them at this crucial moment.
They knelt on one knee before the god-king opposite them, pledging their allegiance!
What the hell? Is this even reasonable?
If the previous events were somewhat logical, such as the betrayal of the gods or the duel between Hades and the King of Gods,
But how could Zeus's own private army betray him on the spot?
A deathly silence fell over the audience; an atmosphere of despair almost enveloped the entire seating area.
Even under this clear blue sky, a thick layer of gloom seemed to hang over everyone's eyes.
Even the dazzling sunlight seemed to mock the insignificant hope in the hearts of countless viewers.
They were exhausted, completely exhausted.
They could no longer bear this cycle of giving hope only to plunge them into despair.
But in reality, the one who finds the current situation the most difficult to accept is Zeus.
Those million immortal warriors who could resurrect indefinitely had always been Zeus's trump card.
They were not only the most loyal soldiers trained by Zeus, but also the most fundamental source of his divine power.
This is because these immortal warriors, like humans, can provide Zeus with a continuous stream of faith.
Moreover, this faith is extremely devout.
Compared to the faiths of humankind, which are filled with expectation and longing for salvation, they seem like the difference between heaven and earth.
It was because of the existence of these immortal warriors that Zeus was able to gain the faith of most other humans.
He remained confident, firmly believing that he could surpass the other gods.
Even Hades, Zeus was confident he could fight him.
As long as these immortal warriors were there, Zeus was confident without any worries that he could turn the tide.
However, reality dealt him a cruel blow, striking him squarely in the heart.
When Zeus witnessed the million soldiers defecting to Hades...
He felt a tremendous blow; his heart seemed to skip a beat.
A chilling coldness surged from the depths of my heart and quickly spread throughout my body.
Why is this happening?
He himself could not understand how his million warriors could suddenly become Hades's warriors.
"This is impossible..."
Zeus's eyes widened.
Looking at the million undead warriors kneeling on the ground, swearing allegiance to Hades, he was filled with confusion and shock.
In those bright yellow eyes filled with thunder, a clear sense of confusion was evident.
It seemed as if the surface of the pupil was covered by a layer of dark haze.
now,
Hades coldly surveyed the million warriors and let out a snort.
He stretched out one hand in front of Zeus.
In the center of his palm floated a crimson ghost.
This crimson color was exceptionally striking; even the dazed Zeus's pupils trembled violently when he saw it.
Then, he heard Hades' deep, cold voice ring out:
"This is the seed of the gods you mentioned?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crimson ghoul in Hades' hand seemed to be awakened and fiercely resisted, trying to break free from Hades' grasp.
But no matter how much it struggles, it is ultimately a futile effort.
Hades sneered, his hand clenching slightly.
The crimson soul shattered and blossomed, transforming into several wisps of mist that drifted out through his fingers.
Immediately afterwards, the crimson mist rapidly reformed at a speed visible to the naked eye, gathering again in Hades' outstretched palm.
At this moment, the voice emanating from Zeus's throat seemed to have lost its majesty as the king of the gods, instead trembling violently:
Why do you possess 'their' souls?
"Then you'll have to ask one of your good 'sons'."
Hades waved his hand dismissively, and the newly resurrected crimson ghost merged into his crimson flames and vanished without a trace.
Upon hearing this, Zeus's eyes widened again, and he asked incredulously:
"Hermes failed?"
how so?
When all the gods were banished from the world, Hermes was the only one who remained among the earth.
Humanity needed commercial development, and Hermes seized this opportunity to establish the Cassidra Merchant Guild, a vast economic collective.
This spurred the rapid development of the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce, ensuring the continued existence of commerce throughout history.
Although his combat strength is relatively weak among the gods, he still plays an irreplaceable and important role—
That was Zeus's messenger, the guide of the gods.
Zeus placed his hopes for the return of the gods on Hermes, and later learned of this from the messages Hermes sent back.
He has successfully opened the Heavenly Gate, scattering the million seeds of gods throughout the Karencia Empire.
Although Hermes was later imprisoned by the Council of Mages, the organization founded by the archmage.
