Chapter 527
The events that occurred in the Heavenly Realm, the Underworld, and the Nordic Realm soon spread throughout all pantheons. At the same time, these pantheons received invitations from Indra, with the stated reason being to reveal the mastermind behind it all.
In the vast banquet hall, countless figures gathered in small groups, whispering about the recent events.
"I really didn't expect something like this to happen. This kind of situation has never occurred before, right?"
"Indeed. The Nordic and Biblical pantheons are not weak. I never expected that not even a single whisper of news would leak out beforehand."
"Who's to say? It's fortunate that they were the unlucky ones; otherwise..."
"So, who do you think did it?"
"There are very few people in this world capable of pulling off something like this without anyone noticing."
"Could it be Shi..."
Before the person could finish their sentence, their companion had already covered their mouth.
Seeing a certain beautiful blue-haired youth not far away cast a glance in their direction, the group immediately wore embarrassed expressions.
It wasn't until the youth looked away that they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you! Is that something that can be said?!"
"But he really..."
"Forget it, forget it. Let's drop this topic. There are quite a lot of pantheons present today."
To prevent their companion from continuing to court death, the group immediately changed the subject.
Looking at the figures in the banquet hall dressed in various styles, as if they had come from all corners of the world, they felt a moment of emotion.
In the long years of the past, the major pantheons had never gathered together like this, all for the sake of obtaining an answer.
Just as the scene was buzzing with discussion, a round of applause suddenly drew everyone's attention.
Following the sound, the guests in the hall saw the host of the banquet standing on the stairs with a smile: "Thank you all for being willing to grace us with your presence..."
"Cut the nonsense, Indra. Hurry up and tell us the truth."
Just as Indra was about to deliver some opening remarks, a voice from the crowd abruptly interrupted him.
Hearing this, those present nodded one after another. They had no interest in listening to the other party's long-winded speech; they only wanted to know the truth as soon as possible.
Although his words were interrupted, Indra did not feel angry. Instead, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Fine, then I'll get straight to the point."
"The one who did all these things is that newly emerged Dragon God."
"As for the reason... I presume I don't need to say much more, do I?"
Once these words were spoken, the previously somewhat noisy banquet hall suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Although they had long harbored suspicions, the vast majority of the gods present could not help but gasp after truly learning this news.
Everyone looked at one another, not knowing what to say for a moment.
They knew the Dragon God was strong, but they hadn't expected him to be strong to this extent. One had to know that the vast majority of the pantheons present were not comparable to the Biblical and Nordic ones.
Just as the expressions of the gods were shifting uncertainly, a hoarse voice suddenly broke the eerie silence: "Let us unite. That individual is no longer someone a single pantheon can deal with alone."
"I don't think anyone wants to become the next Nordic pantheon."
The one speaking was Hades.
At this moment, after finishing the aforementioned words, this God of the Underworld was scanning back and forth across all the gods present.
Hearing his proposal, Indra, who was on the stairs, did not speak, but merely watched the reactions of the crowd below with a chuckle.
It was Zeus, standing beside Hades, who frowned slightly.
As the ruler of the Greek pantheon, he knew very well what kind of personality his older brother had.
He had clearly been the one who most rejected other pantheons in the past; he never expected him to stand up and unite everyone at a time like this.
However, this God King soon found a reasonable explanation: with a powerful enemy at the gates, it was indeed not suitable to continue internal strife.
Moreover, as a supporter of peaceful coexistence between all factions, he was happy to see this scene, so he did not speak, merely watching the direction of events silently.
Unfortunately, Hades had not turned over a new leaf as Zeus had imagined.
The war of the gods never ends; a brief peace is merely an illusion.
From beginning to end, his philosophy had never changed. If anything, what was happening now was confirming this philosophy.
And the reason he stood out to act as the leader was simply because he wanted to take this opportunity to seize the power of that Infinite Dragon God in the process.
If he could obtain the power of that third Dragon God, that would be even better.
As for failure... wanting to obtain power always requires paying some price. Moreover, if he could unite all the pantheons present, the probability of achieving this goal was still quite high.
At the very least, that was what Hades believed.
Thinking of this, the soul fire in his eye sockets flickered slightly, and he secretly glanced at Shiva, who was silent not far away.
Time passed minute by minute, yet no one in the banquet hall made a statement.
After all, having all pantheons unite to deal with a single enemy was something unthinkable in the past.
But after recalling the fate of the Nordic and Biblical pantheons, the vast majority of the pantheons ultimately did not withstand the pressure and were the first to agree to Hades's proposal.
Seeing this situation, Hades felt a slight sense of relief in his heart.
For him, the matter was already more than half successful. Next, it just depended on whether India and Mount Sumeru agreed.
Fortunately, the result did not disappoint him. Except for Mount Sumeru, whose main god was a prankster, the other major pantheons all agreed to this proposal.
The reason was also very simple.
They had no confidence in defeating Li Ang.
