Just do whatever you want to do. This confirms that the team will continue to advance the development of the plot according to the previous path.
Now that the four monster leaders who assisted Ares in invading Athens, including the Harpy, the Sofa Banshee, the Immortal Warrior and the Minotaur, have all been eliminated by the team, and Lin Biao has also obtained Pandora's Box, then according to the original design, At this time, Qi Zhen had to face Ares, the God of War, while Liang Sicheng had to defeat Athena.
But there is a problem here, the order problem.
Is it better to kill Athena first, or Ares first?
In the game, Athena died because she helped Zeus block Kuiye's fatal blow, while Ares died under the sword blessed by the gods.
According to the most likely development of the story, it should be that everyone in the team "overestimates their own capabilities" and fights with Ares until they are defeated and almost defeated, so as to elicit the blessings of the gods again.
This was originally the plot in God of War 1.
The guide also says so.
It's just that the issue of killing Athena was never mentioned at all. Of course, the system didn't expect that the players would bet on both ends, and it had already begun to think about scheming the other gods.
This part of the content was added by the team, so it was confusing.
"Where's the guy in your human race bag? Call him out and ask him." Lin Biao said.
yes!
Qi Zhen was almost forgotten by him.
Everyone's eyes flashed, and Phineus appeared in front of everyone.
Also released with Phineus was Nuolan, but Qi Zhen decided to take her with her, so that it would always be beneficial to her when calculating rewards and points.
Phineus was stunned for a moment, confirming the environment he was in, and then looked at everyone in the team one by one, his expression gradually changed from confusion to shock.
"What? Are you surprised?" Qi Zhen asked doubtfully.
"You...you..." Phineus began to stutter, and for a long time he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
"What happened to us?" Qi Zhen asked.
"You want to kill the gods?" Phineus looked horrified.
"It's not like we killed all the gods, I guess we only killed some of them." Qi Zhen thought for a while, then corrected, and then he added: "A large part of them."
Phineus was born with the ability to predict, but he did not have a good impression of the gods. His state was more about expressing his shock and disbelief at seeing the future.
"It looks like we can succeed." Sun Jie said.
The more shocked Phineus looks at this moment, the more likely it is that the team will succeed.
Qi Zhen did not force him to return to normal, but quietly waited for his emotions to calm down.
After a long time, Phineus put on a smile that he thought was friendly, bowed and saluted everyone in the team, and said, "Hello, everyone."
"I have a question for you." Qi Zhen ignored his advances and said straight to the point.
"Please tell me, I will tell you everything."
I don't know what Phineus saw, but his expression at this time was actually a kind of sincere respect, instead of the kind of false and cowardly show of kindness.
"You must have seen something. Now we must face a choice. Should we kill Athena first or kill Athena first?"
Ares, which one do you think will lead us to a smoother future? Qi Zhen asked.
Phineus shook his head honestly.
"If you all face these two gods now, I'm afraid you won't have any chance." Phineus said: "They are too powerful and protected by divine power, so you won't have any chance."
Qi Zhen frowned.
On the side, a heavy metal treasure box suddenly appeared in front of Lin Biao.
The treasure chest is covered with complicated lines and exudes a strange aura.
The body of the box is extremely huge. It is about a person long and half a person tall. It looks very heavy.
Qi Zhen knew this thing, it was Pandora's Box.
A gloomy aura emanates from it, like a substantial dark purple light wrapping around the surface of the magic box, making people feel chilled when they see it.
In English, Pandora's box often refers to the "source of disaster", which contains all the evil forces in the world, including but not limited to greed, hypocrisy, slander, jealousy, resentment, pain...
Lin Biao casually took out the magic box from his spatial artifact, and then opened it as if nothing had happened.
Countless howls seemed to come from Jiuyou, filling everyone's eardrums.
A black-purple light soaring into the sky filled everyone's sight. This frightening energy even made Nuolan, who was still in a coma, frown slightly.
Black and purple energy shot straight into the sky, dyeing the sky the same color.
"You, you, you, you..." Phineus pointed at Lin Biao tremblingly. He shivered for a long time, but he didn't come up with a reason.
This energy was released for nearly a quarter of an hour before Pandora's box finally returned to calm.
"What now?" Lin Biao raised his eyelids and looked at Phineus and said.
Phineus made a grimace and looked desperate: "Don't ask me, I don't know."
Zhaka walked over cautiously, picked up the magic box and looked inside.
"Empty!?" Zaka said.
Lin Zhu nodded, as if he was not surprised by this matter.
boom.
In the blink of an eye, Pandora's Box was closed again by Lin Biao and disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"Now you can tell whether we should kill Athena first or Ares first." Qi Zhen struck while the iron was hot and asked.
Phineus squatted on the ground in pain, holding his hair with both hands, silent.
The reason why the gods can be killed by Kui Ye, who is a demigod, is in the final analysis inseparable from Pandora's Box.
It is the negative energy in Pandora's Box that makes it possible for the gods to be killed.
However, Phineus could never imagine that the team had obtained Pandora's Box and could open it so casually.
"Ares." After a long time, Phineus suppressed the name of the God of War.
Qi Zhen nodded: "Thank you."
"Can you let me go?" Phineus said suddenly.
"We may still need your help in the future." Qi Zhen said bluntly.
"What I see is that whether you win the final victory or the gods win the war, the world will fall into chaos again, and I don't want to be in the center of the vortex with you. Please ." Phineus looked as if he was dead.
Qi Zhen looked at Lin Biao and wanted to ask his opinion.
Lin Biao nodded casually, agreeing.
"I have predicted too many things in my life. I'm afraid this is the reason why I ended up like this." Phineus sighed: "Hey! He is obviously a mortal, but he wants to reveal the secrets. He really overestimates his ability."
"I think you have this ability to predict, and we don't need to worry about your life safety. Then let's say goodbye and wish you a safe journey." Qi Zhen said.
"If you want to win this war, you must go to the underworld. Only by getting the Sword of Olympus can you kill the one at the top." Phineus said: "This is My last help to you."
Looking at the other person's back, Qi Zhen didn't feel sorry for him. It was just fate, no one could explain it.
"Why don't you keep him?" Qi Zhen asked Lin Biao.
"It's best to get together and part ways easily. If he becomes dissatisfied in the future and gives us a reverse prophecy, it will be difficult to handle," Lin Biao said.
"Now that the goal has been determined, let's analyze the current situation." Qi Zhen let out a sigh of relief and said.
Including Liang Sicheng and Wang Jianguo on the other side of the headphones, everyone was attentive.
"On Ares' side, the monster army is leaderless and has completely lost the ability to affect the situation of the battle. As the God of War, he cannot directly fight Athena, so after attacking the Acropolis, the task of fighting Athena still has to be handed over to Lao Wang On the head and on the child.”
"Athena's side is doomed to be destroyed without our help. Judging from the storyline of the plot, at least Athena is still a kind god now, and all she does is to resist the invasion."
"But upon careful analysis, this is not the case. What must be said is the attitude of the gods. These crooked guys probably have the same mentality as us. They bet on both ends and do not offend on both ends. On the one hand, they gave Sun Jie blessings. The power of God, on the one hand, is hiding behind the scenes to support Ares’s attack. It’s hard to say which side it will take at the critical moment, but it has no impact on us. Those gods always need us to face them directly.”
"The most important thing is the attitude of Zeus. I guess since Ares wants to seize power, Zeus will definitely not allow it, so our move to kill Ares should get his support. However, given the current situation From the looks of it, it’s hard to tell whether Zeus is completely on his daughter’s side, or whether he originally wanted to take this opportunity to weaken his daughter’s influence.”
"But judging from the content of this series of games, Athena is the one who least worries about it. I am afraid that the wisdom of all the gods combined is not as much as Athena thinks. After all, in the game of God of War 3 In the end, Athena came up with a plan and really almost became the new Lord of the Gods. If Kui Ye's choice hadn't been too harmful to others and not self-interested, she might have become it."
"Based on our current situation, the first task is to kill Ares. The next step is to go to the underworld to obtain the Sword of Olympus. After that, all the gods standing in front of us are enemy."
After Qi Zhen analyzed it one by one, the team's next direction became very clear.
"To put it simply, to prevent the other gods from retaliating, before obtaining the divine sword, you and Athena are temporarily in the same camp, and you can reap as many benefits as you can. After obtaining the divine sword, people will kill people, and gods will kill gods. "
