The birds outside the window were chirping and disturbing my peaceful sleep.
Yin Zhu opened her eyes, waved her hand, and the group of fake birds that Eve had arranged to be mechanical alarm clocks flew away in a hurry.
Today is the [Divine Assembly] of the "gods" of the city of Vina.
They are very ritualistic. They give everything a name that, while not entirely clear, sounds impressive, as if it befits their status. Their every move exudes understated luxury.
However, the rule of the gods ends today.
Yin Zhu did not leave her home, but went straight to the restaurant for breakfast.
There was only a prince here, eating a sandwich and crying with snot and tears streaming down his face.
Upon seeing Yin Zhu, the prince hurriedly wiped his face, and to cover up his earlier behavior, his words were full of sarcastic and aggressive tone: "You really can sleep. Nazar and the others have already gone to the Altar of the Gods."
"They told me not to go, that we could just watch Eve's live stream."
Yin Zhu stood next to the dining table, and some metal objects automatically extended from the ground, quickly assembling into a chair for Yin Zhu to sit on.
What would you like to eat for breakfast?
"Just like you, right?"
The prince waved his hand, instructing the house's artificial intelligence to start cooking.
Many houses in the inner city, like the luxury apartments in the outer city, have artificial intelligence systems that automatically clean the rooms and serve the owners, saving them a lot of trouble.
Elite citizens occasionally choose to have professional chefs cook for them, usually when entertaining distinguished guests, as it's not appropriate to use assembly-line menus from machines.
"Speaking of which, why were you so upset just now?" Yin Zhu took a bite of her tuna sandwich.
I thought the incident was over, but I didn't expect Yin Zhu to be so tactless as to bring it up again.
The prince couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about how well the two of them understood each other.
He was the one who arrived first!
Whether it's getting to know Nazar or wanting to save him, he was the one who started it all!
Why are you guys so skilled?
The prince's sullen and jealous expression was written all over his face. Even though he didn't say anything, it still made Yin Zhu try to suppress her laughter, but her body couldn't hide the obvious rise and fall of her body. She almost choked and coughed violently a few times.
You deserve it!
The prince glared fiercely at the gloating Yin Zhu.
Despite feeling sorry for the boy's feelings, Yin Zhu thought they were innocent and cute, but she wondered how long they would last. These feelings, fueled purely by hormones and dopamine, would cool down considerably once the hormones stopped flowing.
Yin Zhu gestured for Eve to turn on the monitor, and then experienced what it was like to watch a live stream.
On the screen, Nazar is almost at the altar of the gods.
This place is located at the back of the temple and is never open to the public.
At this moment, there was no one outside; it seemed that all the remaining gods had gone inside.
"There's no one in the temple, but there might be traps. Be careful."
The sound of worms came through the headphones. He confirmed, using the scan provided by Eve, that the temple showed no signs of life. As for the robots, it was already a miracle those things hadn't been turned.
For Nazar, the current situation is like catching a turtle in a jar; none of those "gods" can escape.
The worm has no fighting ability; its job is to be in charge of electronic monitoring on the perimeter, constantly helping Nazar to confirm the movements of those "gods" and avoid stepping into a trap.
“The more gods die, the greater my power becomes. Now there are less than half of the gods left, and even if they were all combined, they couldn’t defeat me.” Nazar was very confident about this.
As Naza ascended the stone staircase step by step, his footsteps echoed through the empty temple.
It seemed as if someone was secretly observing him from all around.
A chilling feeling that sends shivers down your spine.
Naza suppressed her fear and repeatedly told herself that there was nothing to be afraid of; she had become a god, and a popular one at that.
She will lead humanity to defeat the gods.
Humanity will eventually wrest power from the gods and regain freedom and equality.
After passing through the temple, Nazar finally arrived at the altar of the gods.
This is a skyscraper where you can almost touch the stars. Its silver metallic luster shows the building's hardness and technological feel. It also features Ionic Roman columns, Chinese-style brackets and flying eaves, and a torii gate from Japan at the main entrance.
It may also contain elements from the Lavender Country and the Gem Country, but viewers who are not architecture professionals probably wouldn't be able to tell.
A "Rules of the Altar of the Gods" was posted at the entrance.
The ink on it was still wet, as if it had just been written, and it seemed to have gathered the power of the other gods in an attempt to suppress Nazar's rampage.
"Hiding inside and not coming out?" Nazar chuckled.
1. No deity may perform any ritual at the altar of the gods; those who violate this rule will be punished by all the gods.
Upon seeing the first rule, Naza understood the intentions of these gods. Since they couldn't defeat Naza with their divine forms, they resorted to hand-to-hand combat, intending to bully Naza, who had just been promoted to the ranks of gods and was essentially just a child who hadn't even reached adulthood yet.
They've really lost all sense of shame.
A divine voice, echoing from within the building, also resonated:
"You want to destroy all the gods? That's wishful thinking!"
“Okay.” Nazar immediately sent a message to Yin Zhu, “Sister Zhu, are you awake? Do me a favor, there’s a rule here.”
Yin Zhu was watching the live stream and naturally understood her question: "Let me watch the rest first."
Rules established by the gods carry the power of those rules.
Yin Zhu had noticed this when they were in the library, but she had forgotten about it while she was busy running around. Only now did she remember it.
This is her area of expertise.
Nazar looked back again:
2. Robots and other man-made objects are forbidden from entering the altars of the gods; violators will be punished by the gods.
3. Artificial humans are forbidden...
4. Lower-class citizens...
There are a total of twelve articles.
Yin Zhu's lips twitched. Undoubtedly, these rules were designed specifically for Nazar, but: "Isn't this specification a little too detailed? Have they considered whether they themselves meet these rules?"
The moment Yin Zhu saw the subsequent rules, she had already thought of a way to deal with them.
Just one more rule and it will be a game-winner.
This is roughly equivalent to using the hands of the gods to personally kill them.
"Nazar, listen to me." Yin Zhu took a deep breath, his expression turning serious, his pupils instantly turning gold, and he looked coldly at the rules, saying:
"Those infected with Cybervirus, whether human or divine, are forbidden from entering the altar of the gods; those who violate this rule will be punished by the gods."
"Aa ...
The words had barely left his lips when countless piercing wails echoed from the altar of the gods. Strange creatures began crawling out of the windows of this colossal building: some were engulfed in bizarre green flames; some had their bodies crack open, sprouting countless eyeballs; some began to petrify; and some, before even escaping the building, aged and died at the speed of light right outside their windows…
The rules they originally set are now backfiring on them.
