Chapter 1347: Chapter 68: God Does Not Exist!
Early morning, Garden of Eden.
The majestic temple was in disarray, scattered with the figures of the defeated:
On the floor, several serpents made of strands of hair lay coiled lazily like they were soaking in warm water. At the end of the snake hair, three Gorgon Demons, one large and two small, slept in each other’s embrace;
On the carpet, the limp tail of a feline overlapped with the swan wings of a Valkyrie and the colorful plumes of the Witch of the Eagle, while the pointed ears of elves and elves were bright red like blood;
In the office area, the Muses huddled behind the bookshelves, goddesses of wisdom lay sprawled on the tables, and the priestesses serving deities were lying under the desks;
In the dining area, the Hunting Gods of Nordic and Greece lay on the ground in humiliation, the Shadow Country Queen of Celtic was unable to get up, while the Babylonian War Goddess and the Queen of the Netherworld had tears in their eyes;
And in the final resting area, it was even more crowded, with Dragon Mother Tiamat, Mechanical God Venus, Knight King Altria, Three-Phase Goddess Hecate, and the Norn Sisters lying on the bed peacefully sleeping.
Encircling them were goddesses, demigods, and heroes from Babylon, Rome, Celtic, Greece, and the Nordic realms resting in succession.
Looking around, there wasn’t an inch of space left in the entire temple.
The originally spacious room now appeared somewhat crowded.
As streaks of golden sunlight poured through the window lattices, landing on the bedhead, the final victor lazily sat up, looking with great satisfaction at the whole room of defeated ones.
This long journey, despite its twists and turns, finally ended safely on the European mainland thanks to his wit and the guidances of allies.
By the way, he also brought along the Origin God of Babylon and all the surviving life from the Babylonian Divine Era.
To make the newly joined Babylon Pantheon feel at home, Luo En first teamed up with Tiamat to unleash divine authority, embedding the Garden of Eden into the roots of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, creating a paradise for the Babylon Pantheon to dwell in, and then summoned the deities from Greece, Nordic, Rome, and Celtic to collectively hold a grand welcoming ceremony for the Babylon Pantheon.
The banquet was a success.
With the concerted efforts of goddesses skilled in socializing like Hecate, Athena, Thetis, Morgos, Urd, and Siduri, the atmosphere of the venue gradually heated up.
Over a meal, the Babylonian goddesses and those from Greece, Nordic, Rome, and Celtic became an affectionate family akin to sisters.
But, the friendship among women is always so delicate.
Born naturally as close-knit allies, yet with covert competition etched into their bones.
Thus, after growing familiar with each other, someone in the crowd posed a question that directly ignited the entire venue:
“Which deities’ era’s goddess is the most charismatic and potent?”
When the heated debate yielded no resolution, Luo En, the creator, was called upon to act as the judge.
Luo En, unwilling to offend anyone, spoke ambiguously, employing eighteen segments of his tea-making artistry, hoping to balance the scales.
However, the complexity between serving tea to one and serving tea to a group is vastly different.
Especially considering the presence of intellects like Athena, Hecate, Siduri, Urd, Morgan, and Vivian, whose minds are as intricate as a hornet’s nest.
As such, Luo En’s otherwise unfailing tea art led to an epic stumble, and his mediocre attempts were exposed, incurring public anger among the goddesses.
In the end, yet another mischievous goddess from the crowd suggested:
“The touchstone is readily available; every divine era has been conquered by him. Since there is a desire to contest strength, why not use him as the standard to see which side can reverse-conquer this final boss?”
Consequently, the goddesses, with tacit understanding, gazed at a certain referee, immediately locking the temple doors and organizing troops by divine era, taking turns to strategize against this final boss.
An originally proper welcoming banquet thus transformed into an improper silver party.
Regarding this, Luo En severely suspected his joyful master Hecate, or the other Greek goddesses, of fanning the flames in the background.
After all, only this bunch of Greek women possesses the racial talent to turn any occasion indecent.
Nevertheless, they ultimately underestimated the worthiness of the master of the five divine eras.
After countless intense battles over tens of days and nights, the final boss successfully toppled the alliance of the five divine eras, securing the ultimate victory.
And based on the duration of endurance, the strengths and weaknesses of the five divine eras in a certain domain also became apparent.
First, naturally, was Greece, not only due to the highest number of teammates but also with the bonus of techniques;
The second was Nordic, with the second-highest number of teammates, individuals had no techniques but the highest endurance and physical strength;
Celtic and the newly joined Babylon were tied for third.
In numbers, Celtic had Altria, the three Lake Fairies, and the Shadow Country Queen Skaha participating, which was one more teammate than Babylon’s combination of Tiamat, Ishtar, Aile, and Siduri.
But in terms of quality, the leading Knight King was still too tender, utterly defeated by Dragon Mother Tiamat. In the end, it was Skaha stepping in to level the field, making them barely tie in time.
As for the prestigious Rome, unfortunately, landed in last place, needing to start a separate table with kids.
No help for it, that’s the literal truth.
The only ones Rome could field were Venus and Priest Cassandra. The remaining, Nero and the Three Sons of Destiny, were all little ones benched out.
—Isn’t this Rome just too weak; they really need some intensive training later.
Luo En stretched lazily with a chuckle, looking up at the bronze wind chimes jingling outside the temple door.
