The Secret Place of the Holy Word.
What's the reaction from the humans?
"I don't know. There was some reaction at first, but it was suppressed later."
"Is it the Watchers again? Those cunning guys!"
"However, they are just putting up a last-ditch resistance."
"How pitiful and pathetic, hahaha."
Hahahaha!!!
The representatives of the saints once again gathered in this ancient and mysterious place, exchanging information with each other.
This time, unlike the tense and oppressive atmosphere before, they seemed unusually relaxed.
The space was filled with cheerful laughter.
This is easy to understand, because their last operation was successful.
A resounding success! This is an unprecedented success!
Although several saints paid with their precious lives, that is not a problem!
They established one thing—the gods would eventually return.
The return of the gods is no longer a legend, but a real possibility in the future.
Moreover, this future is very, very close.
Compared to this matter, the death of a saint is but a small sacrifice.
Most importantly, those who died were not saints from their own family.
"Ahem, but we can't let our guard down."
"Please be very careful and do not do anything that will disappoint the gods at the last moment."
"Of course, do you even need to tell me?"
"Speaking of which, where did that guy go? Didn't the angels send anyone?"
"Who knows, maybe he was scared?"
Hahahaha...
"You're going a bit too far. Why would they be afraid? Those guys are just a bunch of heartless weapons."
Hahahaha!!!
For these extraordinary beings, the angel race has always been a very special existence.
They are creations directly created by the gods, belonging exclusively to the gods. They are not related to other extraordinary beings, and are even superior to them.
Moreover, these guys' thought processes are simply incomprehensible!
Even now, the angels are still struggling with the decision to launch a counterattack against the abyss to cleanse the demons.
"Forget about those guys with stones in their heads, we have more important things to do now."
"No matter what, the Lord's return is near, and we must be prepared!"
"Let's proceed with the [container] project first; there's no time to wait for more details."
The Container Project.
No one can be sure what state the gods will be in after their return, or whether they will experience a period of weakness. This is something that their servants need to consider most.
Since the gods are still unable to answer their prayers, they have no choice but to prepare for the worst.
In one scenario, the deity is unharmed, in which case they need not prepare anything, but simply welcome the deity back to their throne.
Another possibility is that they need to provide a suitable vehicle for the gods to travel in the mortal world.
Saints can serve as such vessels, and only those with special talents such as [Divine Descent] and [Spiritual Absorption] can temporarily accommodate them.
There are differences in the capacity to contain things, and those who can fully contain divine thoughts are extremely rare; perhaps only one such person will be born every few hundred years.
Such talent is rare and hard to come by, yet it appeared right before their eyes in a seemingly ordinary way.
"That young watcher did indeed become the vessel for the stargazer, and judging from subsequent observations, he was not greatly affected."
"His aptitude is exceptional! Enough to bear the full divine thought of a god!"
"He is indispensable, and we must get him into our hands."
The oldest-looking man looked around and said in a deep voice:
"Remember! Never act secretly!"
"This concerns every one of us!"
Everyone present agreed, and then slowly disappeared.
They verbally agreed, but no one can be sure how much they truly internalized the agreement.
After all, once the gods return, what kind of relationship will these alliances that have banded together for mutual support have?
The relationships among the gods are not harmonious, so there's no point in expecting anything from them.
No one knows what the future holds.
Or rather, they all knew all too well what the future held.
Is everything going well for the future?
Heh...who can guarantee that?
...
...
Bincheng.
"Everything feels back to normal...?"
Sitting in a corner of the laboratory, Jiang Wan watched with boredom as Xilin used magic to control various instruments.
"Not long ago, we were fighting and killing in a dark place, and we were worried about the return of the gods every day."
"But after returning from there, I realized that the world still seems to be so peaceful."
They were all prepared for a great battle with the gods, but to their surprise, nothing happened during the time they were away from the front lines.
The war in the land of fallen gods was like a dream.
Hearing this, Shirin, who was holding a ballpoint pen to her cheek, blinked and then nodded in agreement.
"Yes, it's truly peaceful."
It was peaceful, even giving them a slightly chilling feeling.
"I just don't know how long this peace can last."
It's so jarring.
It was like the calm before a storm, seemingly windless but incredibly oppressive.
