"Describe the scene from that ti in a bit more detail."
Nie Jiu Tian listened to Perfect Life's description and keenly sensed there was a major problem here.
Perfect Life didn't hold back either. He was the person who had maintained the clearest consciousness in that scene. He had already prepared to preserve all of it with his mory at the ti.
Thus, he ticulously recounted the dialogue between Agony and the gods, as well as the Arbitrator, after Agony appeared.
After his words fell, silence descended within the room. Nie Jiu Tian sat there, sowhat shocked, deep in thought.
He never expected that the return of one [Agony] would yield so much information. It was a pity his body truly couldn't hold on any longer at the ti, causing him to miss such crucial information.
Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Lu Ce and spoke:
"Sin, do you have any impression left of what happened back then? Was it truly Agony who occupied your body at the ti? Or was it a special state of your own?"
A very simple question, yet it stumped Lu Ce, making him frown deeply. Only after a long while did he slowly shake his head.
"I'm not sure. I do have so fragnted mories, but many of the actions were clearly beyond my control."
The Grand Elder nodded and said gravely:
"Given the status of [Agony] as a god, the words He actively spoke were likely specifically ant to convey information. Especially since He specifically called out to Perfect Life."
"But we don't know what His purpose is, whether He is truly trustworthy or if it's a new kind of trap."
"A dead god, and one entangled with a Player... truly unheard of..."
A heavy atmosphere enveloped the basent. Based on the integration of information from the four of them, the layers of peeled-back mist now seed even more difficult to see through.
The gods created The Ga. The establishnt of the Rules was to regulate the "division of spoils" among Them.
The gods are clinging to life, the gods are actually very anxious... what exactly is the connection here...
What are They so anxious about?
......
[Heh, I don't know what you're so anxious about.]
In the place of nothingness, Pleasure's voice carried a teasing tone as His figure materialized within this space.
[There's still plenty of ti, isn't there? Why not expand this space a little more.]
The Arbitrator stood in the middle of this space and said indifferently:
"I have never been anxious. I am rely fulfilling my duties. If you truly wish to delay, we can postpone arbitrarily."
After saying this, He also had no intention of bickering with [Pleasure]. He shouted towards the space before Him:
"Everyone, there may be a voting session later regarding andnts to our Ga's rules. If you can co, you should all attend."
"Those who do not participate will automatically be considered as abstaining."
At this mont, before Him stood an enormous, thick, long table, twisted with black energy currents, resembling the palace of a towering giant.
After the last simple eting, the Arbitrator had clearly given this place a certain amount of renovation and expansion. It now looked like a proper venue for a gods' conference.
Around this massive long table, several figures sat in the void. Each was a phantom humanoid form with unknowable faces.
However, judging by the auras, it was clear that [War] and [Pleasure] were here!
And following the Arbitrator's earlier call, several more points of light ignited in the endless void above, like lamps adorning the giant's palace.
In reality, each one shining there was a god! They just hadn't gathered most of their power and physical forms here.
"Alright, I will assu everyone is now present. Let us now comnce the second eting."
"The content is what we agreed upon last ti: adding so conditions to the next Ga, so rather direct conditions."
[Compared to the next Ga, I'd rather chat with you about the last one.] The voice of Despair sounded.
[Grown so backbone, haven't you? Actually daring to start kicking us out of the Ga now.]
[Also, why did Agony keep saying you were on His side? And calling you 'brother' or sothing?]
The Arbitrator frowned, His tone sowhat icy as He said:
"What my situation is like, everyone should be very clear."
"If you would doubt because of such a thing, you are welco to eliminate . You just need to reach a consensus among yourselves."
The Arbitrator's tone was completely matter-of-fact, not indulging Them in the slightest. Perhaps the events of last ti had left Him not very pleased either.
[These damned Ga rules are just troubleso. They shouldn't have existed in the first place!]
War snorted coldly, also not concealing His dissatisfaction with the Arbitrator.
[I propose abolishing the existence of the Arbitrator and The Ga.]
Silence...
Clearly, His words received no agreent whatsoever.
[I could vote in favor. However, I suppose They wouldn't agree, would they? Heh.]
Death spoke up. As one of the two great gods of life and death, He always seed quite active.
[Arbitrator, the plan for the last Ga was yours, wasn't it?]
[You said sothing like, that Ga wasn't important, it was just to wipe out the other side's active forces. So why does it seem like not a single one died?!]
As He spoke, the vast, empty giant's palace was enveloped by a dense aura of deathly stillness. Clearly, He was sowhat angry.
"...Last ti, I didn't expect it either. That 'Sin' always manages to do the unexpected."
"Moreover, I tried my best to provide convenience, allowing you to take action to eliminate Him. Who knew Agony would truly stand by His side."
ntioning [Agony], the gods fell sowhat silent, as if they had no mood whatsoever to discuss that fellow.
Compared to any world or any Player, what [Agony] brought Them was a completely different kind of trouble.
After all, [Agony] was an existence of the sa rank as Them. Not understanding His intentions and state was what was truly fatal.
[Fine, let's not talk about these things for now.] Another god spoke again, breaking the increasingly heavy atmosphere that had begun to settle here.
[This world has indeed dragged on for too long. If we follow what the Arbitrator said last ti, then we just bypass Him!]
[But, what if we can't bypass Him? What if there really are many people blocking the way? What then? Those insects from that world all seem quite overconfident to .]
The Arbitrator let out a scoffing laugh.
"Hah? What do you an, can't bypass?"
"If that situation truly occurs, just have them face you directly, isn't that right? Isn't that what you've always hoped for?"
