Beneath the Sacred Cross.
One powerful existence after another arrived beneath the Sacred Cross.
"Yo, isn't this the old countryside man from the northern pantheon? What are you doing here, acting as the welcome lady?"
Zeus asked Odin, who was standing at the school gate with a cheerful smile as he watched the gods enter one by one.
He had also come to watch the fun. He had not expected himself to become part of the fun instead.
Zeus of the Greek pantheon had a much better reputation among other pantheons than Hades, who liked to laugh with a creepy "kekekeke."
He could also be considered one of Odin's acquaintances.
"Welcome, lady? Do you not think I look more like a jailer? One who specializes in catching people like you and throwing them inside."
Odin gave his response.
His relationship with the Biblical pantheon was still quite good.
Those gods had been told that once they entered, they could not come out again. Odin, at least, could still wander around casually outside.
"Haha. I did not expect things to reach this point today either."
Facing Odin's teasing, Zeus did not get angry.
Because what Odin said was actually rather close to the truth. At most, the only difference was whether they were captured and brought here, or came here by themselves.
Facing the revived Biblical God, no god was willing to make him personally invite them over.
Rather than that, it was better to obediently come on their own.
After all, everyone was doing the same thing, so there was only so much face they could lose.
"By the way, does this count as the first time the Biblical God has revealed his gender in front of us?"
Zeus whispered.
The previous Biblical God had been wrapped in holy light, just like now.
This time was the same.
However, there was a subtle difference.
This time, the Biblical God seemed to have revealed his voice in front of everyone for the first time.
Hearing the Biblical God's voice, he sounded like a young boy, which made Zeus feel slightly disappointed.
He had thought it might be a girl.
"I think it would be better not to casually discuss that question. Cough, cough."
Odin coughed once.
Zeus really dared to say anything.
Gossiping about someone on their own territory. It seemed Zeus really was the same kind of person as him.
After chatting for a while, Odin brought Zeus into the true meeting venue.
The three-faction peace meeting had been decided inside a small conference room.
This time, the scale was larger, and the guests were far stronger, so naturally a new meeting place had to be prepared.
However...
If one had to say what the largest meeting venue was, it should be this [Ten Directions Sealing Formation].
A place that could bind all the gods inside it and nullify all attacks from the gods. There was only one of its kind.
After walking into the meeting area, Zeus finally saw the Biblical God quietly standing in the air beneath the Sacred Cross.
It was still that familiar fluctuation.
Still that familiar feeling.
Zeus sighed and casually found a seat.
He was actually quite interested in what the Biblical God wanted to say.
After making such a grand arrangement, what exactly did he want to tell them?
For even the Biblical God to treat it with this much seriousness, something quite grave must have happened.
But...
If something that grave had happened, why had they not sensed anything at all?
"I am very happy that everyone could come here. However, the fact that none of you made me personally invite you is, I must say, somewhat regrettable."
Such a will came from within the light in the sky.
After hearing those words, Zeus's expression became subtle.
You released three Heavenly Dragons. If anyone refused to come, you would have a Heavenly Dragon, or even yourself, invite them personally.
Who would dare not come?
"I have invited everyone here because there is indeed an extremely important matter. However, before that, there are a few things I would like everyone to know."
A gentle voice came from within the sacred light.
After those words were spoken, a magic formation appeared in the air.
As the formation rotated, one phantom image after another was constructed from within it.
This was not an offensive magic formation.
It was merely a formation commonly used to display images.
Boom!
The moment the projection appeared, everyone heard a sound from the live broadcast.
It was the sound of a sacred light cannon striking the mountains.
In the image, a crystal dragon casually threw a beam of light toward a bald man who looked bruised and swollen all over. Then it turned into the scene everyone was now seeing.
"That dragon- is that not the Heavenly Dragon that was beside the Biblical God earlier?"
Someone recognized Savior Star Dragon's identity.
After all, Savior Star Dragon's features were simply too distinct. The sacred stardust particles wrapped around her entire body, and her crystal form would make her easy to recognize even if she were thrown among a group of dragons.
"Wait. Why does that bruised and swollen bald head look more and more familiar the longer I stare at it?"
Finally, someone noticed the bald man.
Although his face was bruised and swollen, some people still recognized him.
"Hey, Little White Dragon, look at that bald head. Is that Indra?"
A god grabbed the nearby Jade Dragon and asked.
"That is right. It is Indra. Looks like he has been beaten quite miserably."
A monkey wearing sunglasses shook the pipe in his hand and spoke unhurriedly.
"What the hell? It really is Indra? He was actually beaten up by a Heavenly Dragon?"
"That is Indra? Impossible, right? That bald monk was beaten until his face was swollen and bruised?"
"That is right... It is Indra. I will never forget those exaggerated prayer beads and that iconic bald head in my life."
Very quickly, the news that the existence in the projection was Indra spread everywhere.
All the gods had their eyes opened.
So Heavenly Dragons could also violently beat top-tier transcendents?
Their surprise was not without reason.
Generally speaking, Dragon Kings were above ordinary Satans, and Heavenly Dragons were above ordinary transcendents.
This was already common knowledge.
However, they felt that perhaps because of the existence of the Two Heavenly Dragons, their understanding of the Heavenly Dragon level had been limited to the strength of those two.
If there were only two Heavenly Dragons, and the number of transcendents was clearly far greater, then perhaps the judgment of this power level was not that trustworthy.
So did the power of Heavenly Dragons need to be reevaluated?
Or should this crystal dragon be classified as an even higher-level existence?
Crack.
Just as all the gods held different thoughts, the image suddenly cut off.
"Apologies. This was not what I intended to show everyone."
The young god spoke softly.
However, most people did not hear much apology in his tone.
In reality, it was exactly as they thought. Something like this could not possibly have been a mistake.
It was merely the young god's personal intention to temporarily release the projection of Indra being beaten up.
"What everyone needs to see is this."
As that will was conveyed, the projection formation operated once more.
This time, what appeared before all the gods was a scene completely different from before.
Desolation.
A stretch of complete desolation.
Amid that desolate land, a young boy slowly walked forward.
He was a handsome boy around fourteen or fifteen years old, with neat features and black hair that carried a faint bluish glow...
