Chapter 2010 The Unreliable Truth (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!!! Please Subscribe!!! Please Recommend!!)
In fact, the Pantheon's impression of Gel is very, very complicated.
On the one hand, it is contempt.
There is nothing to say about this. For the gods, mortals are just leeks, which is not important at all. Every day, at least hundreds of billions of mortals die under their control! You must know that the Pantheon can rule thousands of worlds. They control the growth of mortals, imprison their thoughts, threaten them with suffering and death, and make them serve the gods wholeheartedly. In this case, how much do you think the gods will value mortals?
On the one hand, it is fear.
Gods rarely fall, and even fewer are killed. But after Gel appeared, the gods of the Pantheon died in large numbers. As long as he found the traces of the gods, he would kill them. There was no possibility of peace talks at all.
Death is definitely a strange word for the gods. Many gods have never even thought about what it would be like to die. Perhaps they lied too much and believed it themselves. They really began to think that they were immortal gods.
They have lived in such a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere for the past ten thousand years, as if they can continue to enjoy it until the end of the universe.
As a result, someone stood up and told them with the coldest facts... You think too much!
They will die, and when they die, they will be no different from ordinary mortals!
Just as humble, just as trembling!
This broke the defense of many gods.
On the one hand, they look down on him, and on the other hand, they are afraid... Under this contradictory psychology, many gods in the Pantheon immediately showed a polar reversal of their views on Gel, either afraid to death, or trying harder to despise him. In a sense, it is to escape from reality.
High-level gods like Zeus are like this. It seems that only in this way can the nobility of the gods be preserved. They are even too lazy to hear Gel's name, let alone mention him.
It's as if... they can only forget everything that happened before by doing this!
"Why did he go to the Eternal Altar?" Kai asked curiously.
"Who knows? It should be to kill all the gods." Thoth said casually.
In fact, Thoth also felt that this guess was unreliable. It was not that the Eternal God could not do this, but that Thoth could not pay the price. The Eternal God was very fair. He had to pay for what he wanted and would never bargain.
It was just that such a wish was a bit of a pitfall.
The price to pay for the extinction of all gods was definitely unimaginably huge, but if he really had this thing, it seemed that he did not need to seek the Eternal Altar.
"But isn't he preparing that god-killing bomb? Why is it unnecessary?" Kai was a little confused.
Thoth shrugged: "God knows what he thinks, he is a lunatic! Can you understand the thoughts of a lunatic?"
Neither of them thought that Gel went to the Eternal Altar just to resurrect his child... The motive was very clear.
But no one thought of this.
It should be said that Kai always felt that the Pantheon was annoying, and he himself was not an arrogant guy. He only paid attention to Gel's madness, but did not explore the reason for Gel's madness. Kai thought that it was that the gods were not human.
But the general direction was correct, but in fact he did not care how Gel was crazy.
In a sense, Kai also looked at this matter from a condescending perspective.
He knew that the reason why Geer was crazy was that the gods were not human and were doing disgusting things.
But that was all.
It's like, when we watch documentaries about some backward countries, we feel that those people are so pitiful, but are there any extra ones?
No, it's over after watching.
We won't investigate why those people live so miserably, let alone care about any individual among them.
Kai is the same with Geer.
There is a saying that a grain of sand in the era is a mountain on a person!
All mortals ruled by the Pantheon are equally miserable.
It's like happy people are similar, and unfortunate people have their own misfortunes.
Kai will not dig deep to find out the truth about Geer's madness.
Naturally, he will not understand why Geer wants to go to the Eternal Altar.
This is also Kai's arrogance.
Of course, you can't say that Kai really has any problems, he is just... like an ordinary person. Sympathetic, but not much!
"You say... does he want to revive his family?"
However, not everyone was like Thoth and Kai. Melinoe suddenly raised his hand and said, "I remember someone said that when Gel's last child died, he met the god Lapu. He hoped that Lapu could save his child, but Lapu refused, so he went crazy."
Things were much worse than this. After the tribe that Geer belonged to was extinct, he took his daughter to seek shelter from the god Lap that he believed in. On the way, Geer kept praying to the god Lap. However, the god Lap did not respond to him, and Geer's daughter died before him. The next day, Geer found the god Lap, but was humiliated by the god Lap and was almost strangled to death by the god Lap. When his life was in danger, the "Black Death Sword" came into Geer's hands, and then he raised his hand and the knife fell, and the god Lap died. Seeing the gods die in his hands, Geer was terrified at first... For a mortal, killing a god is something he has never thought of. He has never had such an idea in his mind in his life, but Geer recovered immediately. He found that the gods seemed... nothing great!
He always thought that the gods were great and could not be hurt by mortals. Even secretly looking up to peek at the faces of the gods was a serious transgression! But now... he has killed people. As the disaster spread on the planet, resources gradually decreased, and it was normal for tribes to fight each other.
He had also killed livestock.
In order to sacrifice to the gods, the tribe would push the prey or slaves they caught onto the altar and then kill them.
He had done such work, but he was not a particularly strong warrior, and it was not his turn to kill slaves. He was responsible for slaughtering livestock... According to the tribal priests, the gods preferred people as sacrifices. So only the bravest and tallest warriors were qualified to kill living people to sacrifice to the gods. Gel was too thin, he was just a farmer. Not a warrior.
But he had seen such sacrifices many times, and had seen the way life disappeared many times.
But now, the gods died in front of him, just like those livestock and slaves.
It was the same as a knife, blood splattered, and then the livestock would twitch and struggle, with complex emotions such as fear, hatred, and attachment in their eyes. The first time he killed a living thing, he was scared by that look, and it was the first time he knew that animals would have so many emotions.
Now he saw it again.
And this time the target is the gods!
What is the difference between gods and livestock?
Why can they control everything about us? Why can they decide our life and death at will? Even if we are so pious, he and his daughter prayed non-stop for the help of God Lapu, but he turned a blind eye.
Now he saw it, he not only despised our faith, but also despised the prayers of his own children.
Gods... are all liars!!!
They are just livestock, not great gods at all. Not only are they not great, but they are even more mean and evil than mortals!
The disaster of mortals is deliberately spread by these villains!
He wants to break such a scam! He vowed to slaughter all gods.
However, as the killing progressed, Gel gradually developed from the initial pleasure of revenge to numbness. His hatred has not decreased at all, but hatred has no other meaning except that Gel gradually feels empty. He began to miss his daughter. In order to revive his daughter, he decided to go to the eternal altar.
So there was such a situation.
But let's not talk about Gel's mental journey. After all, this thing is Gel's own idea, and no one can guess it. It's just that everyone can find out the reason for Gel's madness through some means, but... God Lapu's actions made the gods feel unbearable.
It's not that they think God Lapu has gone too far... After all, they often do this, and even do it now. They just think... God Lapu is really a bitch!
You kill people to vent your anger, why do you talk so much? And you also tell the truth about the gods cutting leeks... It's simply stupid!
Just like the villains in the movie!
In the movie universe, there is such a truth-die from talking too much. Many villains will talk a lot before killing people or destroying the world, telling their own mental journey and emphasizing the justice of their evil deeds.
The reasons why the villain always has to explain so much before killing the protagonist are: 1. To meet the needs of the plot, the villain will tell the details of his conspiracy to help the audience understand the development of the matter; 2. To give the protagonist a chance to breathe, the villain has procrastination. The story tells us that if you don't procrastinate, you will easily lose opportunities; 3. People will have irrational emotions towards bad guys, and the villain's conspiracy will ignite the audience's emotions again. At this time, the protagonist kills the villain with a knife, which is a kind of emotional release. To be precise, it is still to set off the atmosphere of the plot, using the protagonist being suppressed and humiliated by the BOSS to arouse the audience's anger, increase the audience's resonance, and enhance the audience's sense of substitution (everyone has been humiliated before), but generally before killing the opponent, they always want to humiliate and mentally destroy the opponent to the maximum extent. This is very common. Whether it is T-Bangging originated from Battlefield or R6 Hammer interrogation, Black Eye Conquer, Electric shock barbed wire kill, LOL dance after killing, DOTA planting trees after killing, all come from the idea of humiliating and mocking the opponent, especially when they have been humiliated by the opponent before (such as playing EZGG taunting people).
But the question is, are you Lapu God bored? There is no audience to perform for you, what the hell are you talking about!
Now it's good, people have been killed, and all their shitty things have been exposed!
But internally, of course, everyone can't make this kind of thing public... The gods are not really indiscriminate, at least most of them actually know that what they did was too much, but compared to the benefits of doing so, they would rather sell their conscience.
But this is the thing, but it can't be said that way.
Everyone still has to save face.
So it was slightly changed, but what should be known can be known. What is not known... naturally let him not know.
Melinoe is the kind of person who doesn't know.
He thought the news from the Pantheon was true.
After all, she had never left the underworld before, and she didn't really know the Pantheon's activities... This is also the best point of the underworld gods. They are the gods of death. As long as death exists, their beliefs exist. They don't need to go to great lengths to harm mortals. After all, this kind of work is done by other gods, and they only need to receive souls. A lot of ease.
And they don't even have to get their hands dirty.
"Huh! Then he is really touching!" Thoth snorted sarcastically.
In fact, he didn't believe it at all. You know, if Gel did that, it would be... really great!
According to the rules of the Eternal God, if you resurrect one person, then one person must die. Then let Thoth die. A madman in exchange for a little kid who knows nothing... It's such a good deal!
If that's the case, the gods will open the way to the Eternal Altar for him now.
Go to hell!
But no one thinks this is true!
Including Kai!
It's not just Temo who is stuck in a fixed mindset at the same time. Gel is the same.
If Gel directly talks to the person who made the request, maybe Asgard and the Pantheon would really agree. A murderer is looking for death, why not agree? Secrets are important, but using a secret to kill an enemy like the God Butcher is such a good deal.
But in Gel's opinion, the gods will not believe it first.
This is not wrong. But it doesn't matter. The gods don't care who you resurrect or who you kill. Anyway, you will die in the end, and the Pantheon will not lose anything. If you continue to kill, the loss of the Pantheon will be really big!
Secondly, in Gel's opinion, the Eternal Altar is definitely the biggest secret of the Pantheon! The Pantheon will protect this secret at all costs.
The same is true for Asgard.
So if you want to enter the Eternal Altar, you have to kill Asgard and the Pantheon...
Both parties are thinking wrong!
In fact, both parties can meet the other party's final request, but each of them follows their own thinking pattern, which leads to things running towards a dead end.
As a result, a little girl who knows nothing now tells the truth.
But unfortunately... no one believes it.
In fact, Melinoe herself is not confident, especially Thoth's ridicule, which makes her speechless. She also thinks that she is overthinking.
"What do you think Gel will do?"
Kai is very curious about Gel's next step, Asgard or Earth?
"I think it is more likely to be Earth! As long as the God Killing Bomb is made, everything will be easy, right?"
