Chapter 174
On the other side.
Cheon Song-yi and Do Min-jun also saw the SC Group’s reward.
They knew Li Li Zaijing had gone missing.
"Strange, how did Li Zaijing-oppa go missing?"
"I clearly saw him just a few days ago."
Cheon Song-yi was very surprised to see this news.
Cheon Song-yi and Li Li Zaijing’s younger brother had a good relationship.
They could be considered childhood friends.
Of course, Cheon Song-yi had never liked him.
But their relationship was still good.
Therefore, she was also acquainted with Li Li Zaijing.
Well, she didn't know about the things Li Li Zaijing did behind the scenes.
So Cheon Song-yi was just surprised that someone she had seen not long ago
had now gone missing.
Do Min-jun’s reaction, however, was different from Cheon Song-yi’s.
Yesterday, he had guessed whether the trouble Karl spoke of had anything to do with Li Li Zaijing.
So today, after seeing the news of Li Li Zaijing’s disappearance,
he immediately confirmed that it was Karl’s doing.
After all, yesterday,
Karl had saved him.
And he had said those words.
Trouble.
Besides Li Li Zaijing, who else could his trouble be?
Do Min-jun was very worried that Li Li Zaijing would be detrimental to Cheon Song-yi.
Now that Li Li Zaijing seemed to have been dealt with by Karl,
he naturally felt relieved.
"Mr. Superman is truly amazing, he even knew about the Li Li Zaijing matter."
Do Min-jun thought silently.

*Record of Ragnarok* World
Valhalla Council, Chamber of Assembly
Although it was called a chamber, the space here was extremely vast.
It was much larger than a football field.
The seats in the chamber were filled with figures.
A rough look showed there were tens of thousands, or even a hundred thousand.
Most of the figures in these seats had appearances different from ordinary people.
Some had four arms and five eyes, others had pig heads and human bodies.
Because the beings here were not human.
They were gods.
Sitting in the center of the chamber was a frail, elderly man.
This old man was the supreme god of Greek mythology.
At the same time, he was also the chairman of the Valhalla Council, Zeus.
"Everyone, since the last meeting, another thousand years have passed."
The aged Zeus spoke slowly, "Then, let us begin that meeting now. The conference on human survival held by all the gods of the world."
The purpose of this meeting was to decide...
whether to allow humans to continue to survive for another thousand years, or to destroy humanity.
In this meeting, every god could put forward their opinion.
"Hmm... let's end it."
A figure lying in a seat said lazily.
This figure was named Shiva.
He had four arms and five eyes and was the god of creation and destruction in Hindu mythology.
He could be said to be the top-tier god in Hindu mythology.
Shiva said casually: "For these thousand years, they have had no intention of reflecting on themselves. Let's just destroy them all."
"Indeed, as Lord Shiva said."
A figure with blonde hair and blue eyes spoke up.
"For these thousand years, the world has become uglier and uglier."
This beautiful figure was the Goddess of Beauty,
Aphrodite.
She continued: "The oceans are full of trash, and species are going extinct one after another."
"If we really want to talk about it, humans are the disaster destroying Blue Star’s creatures."
"They are simply a poison."
As her voice fell,
the voices of other gods rang out one after another in the chamber.
"Aphrodite is right."
"Let humanity go extinct."
"That's right."
"I am tired of guiding them."
……
For a time, all the gods in the chamber were listing the sins of humanity.
Valhalla Council, Chamber of Deliberation
After the Chairman, Zeus, spoke, the gods began to decide the fate of humanity.
Whether to let humanity survive for another thousand years, or to let them perish.
As a result, every god in the entire chamber—
without exception, all decided to destroy humanity and bring them to an end.
Not a single god suggested letting humanity continue to survive.
The result was self-evident.
Seeing this, Zeus made his decision in his heart.
He spoke slowly, "It seems a conclusion has been reached."
"Then, regarding this Conference on the Survival of Humanity."
"It is unanimously agreed to bring humanity to an end..."
"Wait!"
At this moment, a loud voice rang out.
The gods in the chamber were drawn by this sound and looked toward the entrance.
"Who is that?"
"I don't know..."
Gradually, some recognized the newcomer.
"Isn't that the Valkyrie?"
"The Valkyrie..."
Brunhilde stood at the entrance, her expression calm as she said, "Forgive my intrusion, but I have a proposal for all you gods." "Step back! Brunhilde!"
At this moment, a rebuke came from the floor.
It was the two birds on Odin's shoulders that had spoken.
"You are merely a demigod."
"Who gave you permission to interrupt the gods' discussion?"
"Want to fight? Come on then!"
The two divine birds kept provoking Brunhilde.
However, Brunhilde paid them no mind.
"It is true that one cannot ignore the arrogance and tyranny of humanity."
"However, simply wiping them out is far too dull."
"Oh?"
Zeus glanced at her, "Is that so?"
"How about this?"
Brunhilde began to speak:
"Over the next thousand years, whether humanity has the value to survive—"
"Why don't we test them while simultaneously displaying the grace and might of the gods?"
"There is an effective method."
"The final battle between the gods and humanity: Record of Ragnarok."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Zeus, Odin, and the other major gods darkened.
A codex appeared in Brunhilde's hand.
"Valhalla Constitution, Article 62, Clause 15, the super-special provision..."
"A one-on-one competition between gods and humans, that is to say, a duel."
Record of Ragnarok: the gods and humanity each send out 13 representatives.
The side that achieves seven victories wins.
If humanity fails, they will perish.
Conversely, if humanity wins—
they will be permitted by the gods to survive for another thousand years.
Of course, this law had never been invoked.
After all, the idea of humans defeating gods was something one wouldn't even dare to imagine.
When the gods originally established this clause, it was done in a joking manner.
Sure enough.
Just as Brunhilde finished speaking,
a chorus of mocking laughter erupted in the chamber.
"Compete with humans? What a joke!"
"It's a waste of time even to compete."
"As a noble god, how could I possibly compete with humans!"
"This doesn't even qualify as a game."
"That's right, it's a complete waste of time."
Facing the mockery of the entire hall, Brunhilde remained expressionless.
"So, the gods' intention is for humanity to perish."
"And you wish to avoid a confrontation with humanity, is that it?"
Odin, Zeus, and the others felt there was a hidden meaning in her words.
"You don't want to stand on the same arena as humans."
"Could it be..."
