Chapter 1404: Chapter 1404 – Hope Is Our Greatest Weapon
“Your so-called survival is to coop up in that bullshit garden of Eden and live on?”Ares sneered.
“That’s right. In the Garden of Eden, we will become unprecedentedly weak and lose most of our strength, but at least we can survive. Given the current situation, this is the most rational choice.”
Isis’words were also agreed by many of the gods present. Some of them had even begun to study the location of the Garden of Eden. This was because the master of laraya could invade a person’s spirit through dreams, therefore, it was not easy to find a place that could completely isolate the outside world.
Some of the gods who supported ISIS even mocked Ares, who was the leader of the war faction, “Isn’t the reason why all of you are unwilling to support the Garden of Eden Project because you are unwilling to give up on your own power? In the end, the reason why all of you are stronger than us is because of your popularity. However, once we reach the Garden of Eden, everything will start all over again. Everyone will be standing on the same starting line. Everything that happens after that will depend on your own abilities.”
Ares was so angry that he laughed. “Ares, don’t forget who saved you from the hands of the New Gods. Without Us, all of you would have been eaten alive by the hungry New Gods.”
Freya was also a member of the pro-war faction. However, she did not speak much during the meeting. When Ares, who was in a rage, uttered these words, Freya’s heart sank, she knew that Ares had made a fatal mistake.
As expected, after Ares said those words, many of the neutral factions, who were still wavering, began to lean towards the Garden of Eden Plan. After all, no one wanted to be a good-for-nothing all the time.
In the Garden of Eden, they might have had a hard time at first. However, just as ISIS had said, everyone would once again stand on the same starting line. This was a rare opportunity, especially for those gods who were getting weaker and weaker, it was difficult for them not to be tempted.

Freya saw that things were not going well and decisively requested for a half-hour break. Although this proposal was accepted by the host of the meeting, justya, the battle-oriented faction led by Ares understood that.., a split was inevitable.
“This kind of meeting is a complete waste of time. Those cowards have long been scared out of their wits. Even if we break the ice, they will not continue fighting.”
On the lawn outside the house, Ares could not help but complain when he saw that there were basically his own people around him.
“Then, do you have any good ideas?”Freya’s expression was relatively calm, as though she was not surprised by the outcome. She only asked, “Currently, most of the gods are leaning towards supporting the Garden of Eden Project. It is true that we are the only ones left who are unable to contend against that fellow.”
“It would be great if GAIME was still around.”Bader suddenly sighed.
Although GAIME was a new god, he was one of the few people who were both welcomed by the new gods and respected by the Old Gods. He set the rules of the game and ended the war that had lasted for thousands of years, he established a new order for the divine realm.
Although there were many people who complained that he was too broad-minded and missed the barbaric and free times of the past, at this critical moment of life and death, the first person that everyone thought of was still gaime.
However, Gaime had disappeared at this crucial moment. If he had been present at this meeting, the gods would have reached a consensus whether to fight or flee. No, if he had been present.., perhaps there would not have been this meeting at all. This was because GAIME had already taken care of Laryev’s master when he had just descended into Zhang Heng’s body.
Seeing that time was running out, the pro-war faction could only continue to complain, but they could not come up with any good reason to convince the others.

Ares also noticed that Freya seemed to be a little distracted. While the other gods were trying to find a solution, she just silently looked at the other end of the lawn.
On the bench there sat a short, Fat Man in a suit and tie. His hair was neatly combed, and he had an exaggerated moustache, he looked as if he had walked down from an old 19th-century photograph.
At the moment, he did not participate in the discussions of the warring factions, nor did he mingle with those who wanted to carry out the Garden of Eden Project. He just held a piece of toast that he had just taken from the kitchen and enjoyed the sunlight, he would occasionally pinch off some crumbs and feed them to a group of sparrows in front of him.
However, just as he was about to throw away the last bit of bread in his hands, the sparrows on the ground suddenly spread their wings and flew away.
The Man with the mustache raised his head and saw a group of gods headed by Ares walking towards him.
“Are you guys here to bask in the Sun Too?”
“No, we want to know where Gaime is right now,”Ares replied. Even though the other party was a new god, Ares’s attitude was very polite.
“It’s not just you guys, I also want to know.”The man with the mustache spread his hands, looking like he could not help.
In the next moment, Freya stood up. “Some people said that Gaime fled early because he was afraid of the Lord of lalenia.”
“That’s an interesting theory.”The Man with the mustache raised his eyebrows and said with interest, “What do you think?”
“I think it’s nonsense. Other than Gaime, no other god is willing to spend so much effort to mediate the conflict between the new and Old Gods. I don’t think such a leader would really abandon us when we need him the most.”
“Yeah, when he first suggested to me that he was going to use games to replace war and resolve the disputes between the gods, I was also quite surprised. I thought that a nerd like him would find such things too troublesome. I even mocked him at that time. I told him that war and peace are like two sides of a coin. You Can’t eliminate one side and keep the other side.
“The game might be able to bring about peace for the time being, but the conflicts are still accumulating. The new God and the old God will fight again sooner or later. Of course, I did not expect that this battle would end in such a manner. I have to say that this ending has quite a dark sense of humor.”The man with the mustache smiled.
“Did he leave because he was disappointed with us?”Ares said, “So he wanted to give up on us, just like those guys over there wanted to give up on the humans?”
“Based on my understanding of him, he shouldn’t be such a person.”
“Stop keeping us in suspense. You have the best relationship with him. What exactly is Gaime trying to do? Can’t he tell us at this point in time?”Apollo appeared to be the most anxious, “Every second we delay, the guy in the sea will become stronger. When that time comes, even if Gaime is willing to take action, I’m afraid it will be too late.”
However, the mustached man on the chair only smiled when he heard that. “No matter what happens, we should have hope, because hope will always be our strongest weapon.”
However, this cliché of his was clearly not enough to satisfy the gods in front of him. In the end, seeing that they could not ask any more questions, Ares and the rest could only leave in disappointment.
