Chapter 270
On the surface of the earth, there were massive titans moving around. Each titan had a height starting from twenty feet to a hundred feet. These titans weren't just massive. They also had enormous strength to crush and create a crater in the earth with each step.
Those titans were moving around in a group. Suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of them. Most of them were humans as they looked exactly the same. But, their dressing style was ancient. The man standing in the middle was covering his body with a single white sheet of cloth.
"God of Lightning, Zeus! You finally dare to appear. This time I am going to shred you in half." Suddenly, the hundred feet titan spoke as he straight at the man in the middle. The killing intent rose from his eyes.
"How dare you speak with such insolence to father? I shall retrieve your head as an apology." Suddenly, a man holding a sword floated in front of Zeus and shouted at the titan.
"Ares, come back! I am the only one who can fight him. Isn't that right, father?" Zeus called out the man holding a sword and looked at the titan. Although the titan in front of him was his father, he didn't have a single trace of love and affection for him.
Ares unwillingly retreated to the back. At this moment, Zeus stood in front of other gods and shouted "Humans have prayed us for a week. Some mice dared to block our way. But, now we have successfully come back to earth. Let's slaughter these evil titans and save humanity."
"Save humanity!"
"Save humanity!"
Followed by his words, every god shouted as they released their powers.
Bang!
Suddenly, the lightning gathered at the hands of Zeus. He released the lightning from his hand and struck Cronus. With his strike, the great battle started on earth.
At this moment, a man was watching their battle from the high sky. David looked at them and sighed "Hush! They really don't care about others. Johnny, you and omega were the same. Every one of you never cares about the consequences of your battle. You really think making the world combined with a virtual world is enough to fill the scar left by that battle."
"You people just want supremacy but none of you care about the ordinary people. Am I bad? My actions took the life of billions. I know stealing one dollar is still a crime. But, can my action truly be called bad in the bigger scheme of things."
"While I am doing everything for the prosperity of humanity, you people fought like there is no tomorrow, not caring about the zillions of creatures that died in each universe. Deviants, you betrayed me just because I wanted to stop the war?"
"I wasn't participating for you. I was doing it for every creature living in the multiverse that was sick of Omega's order. Omega, Deviants, I will drag both of you down. First, let's start with my first plan."
As he spoke, David looked at the golden barrier that was covering the earth. The impact of the battle can be so strong that it could easily destroy the planets nearby. This barrier was the only way to prevent such destruction. After all, there are people living on the moon and mars as well.
David didn't move. He waited above the barrier for a long time till the battle ends. The battle took three days to end. The Gods won as he expected. Titans were outnumbered. These titans were simply the earliest giants that fought against the humans in the past and were sent to Tartarus.
David didn't give a crap about the gods and titans since these were the title they inherit from the myths and legends. And, whether they die or they die, it doesn't matter him. The only thing that interests him is the success of his plan.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
"Father, it's the same barrier that blocked us previously. And, this one seems powerful than before. It was able to withstand the impact of the battle." Suddenly, a speedster moved from the thousands of miles away and appeared in front of Zeus in just a few seconds. He spoke hastily with a pale expression while hiding his right hand.
"Sigh! You are the God of Speed, not the God of Battle. You should already know the power of this barrier. Don't try to injure yourself." Zeus looked at his hand through his body and said. He could easily see through Hermes.
"What should we do now, father? We tried to break this barrier before but we couldn't succeed. Are we going to wait once again?" Ares held a sword. The blood dripped from the sword as he advances towards Zeus and asked.
"It seems this barrier was created to keep us inside. But, who is doing such stuff? And, how did he get his hands on such barrier?" Zeus tried to look outside the barrier but he couldn't do anything. He was worried that someone was planning against him.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Suddenly, everyone turned their head towards the source of the sound. It was surprising to hear the clap in such a depressing situation. Above them, David floated with a big smile on his face.
"Congratulation for exterminating evil!"
"Who are you? Is it you setting up this barrier?" Ares suddenly floated towards David and shouted with an angry expression.
Suddenly, Zeus appeared in front of Ares and looked at David. His eyes narrowed as he said, "Are you the one who transported humans away from the earth?"
"It seems God Father is not just a name. Well, none of that matters anymore. If I hadn't used this barrier, this war would've killed the people from moons and mars. It seems God Father proceeds on war without thinking about the victims." David spoke with a big smile but each of his words revealed deep killing intent.
"Humph! So what if some puny humans die? They will be just a sacrifice for good to win." Ares deeply stared at David and snorted.
Hearing his words, the smile slowly fades away. David raised his finger and said "I really want to kill you. Unfortunately, I don't have that strength. So, I have no choice but to use this barrier."
"There is no need for a god to exist who doesn't care about his followers."
As David said, the barrier suddenly moved. This gained the attention of everyone. They looked at David who had regained is smile. Seeing their faces, David spoke "You know that barrier from a previous time. It was working on five percent power. But, it was enough to hold you, people, for seven days."
"This current barrier was specially created as a Battle Royale Arena. This time, the whole earth is your arena for the battle royale. And, all of you are the contestant. Each second, the barrier will shrink and in just seventy-two hours, the entire earth will shrink to the size of an atom."
"Of course, you are free to test it if you don't believe it. But, I guess you won't have that much time. But, there is a piece of good news. I have set five escape routes in a certain position of the barrier. But, each escape route will only allow a single person to escape."
"That means there are only two outcomes. Either all of you die, or five of you live!"
Hearing his words, the gods looked at each other with disbelieve. At this moment, Zeus raised his head at him and asked "Why are you doing this? Even if what you told us is true, there is no way you could do all this without proper planning."
"Two hundred years ago, Key of the Tartarus was stolen. We never find where it was. You planned all of this. Using the blood of humans on earth to generate enough power to access Tartarus. With the key, you freed them and brought catastrophe in the earth just so that you can bring all of the human gods in the earth."
"I want to know the reason why?"
Hearing his question, David revealed a big smile. Just when he was about to speak, one of the gods holding a bow shouted "You are the David. You are that human who barged in the meeting of the Council and got support from the first ancestor Van. D"
"The first ancestor trusted you. Why are you doing this to humanity? You should know the consequences of our death. Whether it is this galaxy or other galaxies, monsters and alien races will prey on humans. Without us, there will be no one to protect them."
Clap!
Suddenly, David clapped and stopped the god from speaking. He looked at him and said "So, you attended that council. Other gods should be like you, curious about humanity rather than enjoying their life in their heaven."
"But, you are wrong. If we do not have gods, we will advance even more. You are not gods. You are simply humans who have reached Divinities. You are using the belief and trust of mortals for faith. Without you, we can surpass our limit."
"Isn't that right, Van?"
