"Ah, unexpected, this ti at the Main God Conference, there are actually two people missing." A young man said by the Main God altar. Don’t be fooled by his youth; he’s an "old hand" at being a Main God—Hers, the "Divine Envoy" among the twelve Main Gods. He’s skilled in many areas, like business and intelligence gathering, practically omnipotent. He doesn’t get involved in "disputes" between Main Gods, always making a profit from all sides, living a life of luxury.
What he’s most proficient in is "gathering intelligence." Those pieces of information that are almost unknown to anyone, he can acquire them, and they’re exceedingly accurate. The most crucial part is, as long as you pay, anyone can be his client. As long as you pay enough money, you can get the intelligence you want, no matter who the other party is—this is, of course, a signal of neutrality. If "selling only to you and not to " exists, there would be bias towards one side. Everybody can acquire intelligence as long as they pay, and it’s absolutely confidential. This kind of business is a win-win, so naturally, no one would harm Hers. He relies on this to constantly "accumulate gold," then invests in various fields or manages finances. Money breeds money, so he also claims to be a "business genius."
Laughing rrily, Hers looked at the group as if celebrating New Year was his business. Compared to everyone else’s solemn expressions, his deanor stood in stark contrast, even... sowhat awkward.
"Hers, can’t you just sit quietly?" Doris said blandly, her tone icy. Hers awkwardly laughed twice and sat down on a stone chair by the altar.
Ye Shikai also took his seat while Nightmare and Soul Destroyer stood nearby, watching the surroundings cautiously.
"Everyone, since this is the Main God Conference, why don’t we all say a few words?" Doris glanced at the empty seats of Athena and Zeus from a short distance and said calmly.
"The Underworld has been quite restless lately," Aphrodite said coldly. The venue was already filled with tension—the Main God Conference, in fact, was just a casual gathering of a few Main Gods. After all, the Main God Temples are scattered around the world, with limited opportunities to interact, and among them, so Main Gods are adversaries.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the fact that Zeus got eliminated is indeed headline news in the Underworld." Hers was soone who "thrives on chaos." Having the news, he can acquire new intelligence and sell it for big bucks. From a certain perspective, his nature is sowhat akin to "paparazzi," though the intelligence he sells is by no ans trivial.
"Didn’t expect the actions of the Three Temples to be so swift. I’ve heard it was Hades appearing in the God King Hall that prompted the Three Temples to rescue soone." Hers did not reveal the real reason Ye Shikai appeared in the God King Hall—whether it was truly unknown to him or on purpose.
"The Three Temples suddenly rushed to North Arica to kill Zeus. Haven’t any of you comnted on that?" Aphrodite said coldly, clearly trying to pull together the other Main Gods to deal with the Three Main Gods.
"Zeus’s death was completely his own doing," Ji Qian suddenly said, countering directly.
Everyone’s expressions froze, then looked at Ji Qian. The matter of Zeus’s death was indeed too significant, naturally causing widespread discussion. The Main Gods of the Three Temples are all Huaxia individuals, which, in the eyes of other Main Gods in the Underworld, isn’t considered a "good thing." So, hardly any other Main Gods would choose to stand with the Three Temples. Plus, with Zeus being killed this ti, if other Main Gods don’t unite in resistance, they fear they will be "nad one by one" by the Three Temples, not to ntion Aphrodite’s eloquent words would likely spawn endless opponents for the Three Temples.
When the balance of power shatters, a dramatic change inevitably occurs. On the previous scale was the Three Temples on one side and the God King Hall on the other. Now with one side tipping over, the remaining Main Gods will form into an alliance, becoming the new "weight" on the scale.
"We ca to rescue, not to take his life. It was his refusal to hand over the person, so he should be prepared for death rather." Ji Qian’s tone was cold; a woman who becos a Main God is often more formidable than male Main Gods. After all, on the path to godhood, won need to exert more effort, like the ones present demonstrating perfectly what "Three won together is a play" ans.
Ye Shikai kept silent while several won engaged in a "calm" argunt, unable to lend a hand at all. The Main God Conference doesn’t last long; by nightfall, it’s about ti to descend the mountain.
Normally, at the Main God Conference, people wouldn’t resort to violence. This is the focal point of attention for all in the Underworld, like plaintiffs and defendants in a courtroom—although clearly eager to fight, they still choose "rational" ways to resolve the issue. The Main God Conference is similar—if they truly start a fight, they’ll beco laughingstocks.
However, with such deep-seated conflict among several Main Gods, relying solely on verbal argunts is unlikely to solve anything; after so debate, no progress was made.
"Why so much nonsense? Aphrodite, if you’re not convinced, why don’t we have a fight? Don’t say I didn’t warn you; I’m not one to show rcy." Wang Kai, his temperant irritable, couldn’t take it any longer. He stood up from his chair, yelling and pointing at Aphrodite.
Wang Kai’s action truly sent a tremor through everyone’s heart just then. Instinctively, they gripped their weapons tightly—a squabble like this might erupt into a "Battle of the Gods."
"Ares, since you believe you have reason on your side, why resort to violence? Isn’t that the point of the Main God Conference? Could it be... you admit you’re wrong, and didn’t win the argunt, so you beco angry out of sha?" Aphrodite remained calm and unhurried, eloquent as usual, akin to a hedgehog revealing no gap for an attack, leaving Wang Kai wanting to fight but lacking reason, hence suppressing his temper.
"Qian, sothing’s not right around here." Ye Shikai’s tone changed slightly, with a furrowed brow, carefully observing the surroundings of the Main God altar as a gust of cold wind blew through.
"What’s wrong?" Ji Qian questioned in return.
"Wang Kai’s irritable nature makes him act without consideration, regardless of the occasion, while Aphrodite is certainly not his opponent. Don’t you notice her expression hasn’t changed a bit, seemingly unconcerned about her safety?" Ye Shikai whispered.
She’s not confident Wang Kai won’t strike, but certain... soone will aid her—in other words, she likely has hidden support nearby.
"Could it be Doris? If Wang Kai truly makes a move, Doris would certainly step in to aid her." Ji Qian looked at Doris not far away, her hand tightly gripping the trident, her expression cold, seemingly prepared to act.
