Chapter 1362: Win-win

“So You’ve come here to ask me to congratulate you?”

Zhang Heng finally straightened up. He took out the blood-stained suit from the car and tossed it on the ground. Then, he took out a small bottle of gasoline from the trunk and poured it on top.

“I’m glad that even though you’ve lost your feelings, you haven’t lost your precious sense of humor.”Chronos smiled and paused before continuing, “I know that you’re a person who does things… You’re a very strategic person. You Plan Before You Act. You can remain calm no matter what happens. You’re also used to taking the initiative when making deals. You deliberately put on a nonchalant look and force the other party to speak first. That way, you can better bargain. But we’re considered old partners. There’s no need to do this kind of foreplay anymore.”

“Yes, I’m just worried that you might not be able to take it.”

“You’re too gentle,”Chronos said with a serious expression, “You’ve been having Nightmares Lately, haven’t you? Even in the next 24 hours, you won’t be able to get rid of them.”

“Do you have any good suggestions for sleeping?”Zhang Heng pulled out his lighter and squatted down to light the gasoline-soaked suit. He watched the flames burn.

“You went to look for ISIS, and then you went to look for Saiji. The two of them should have answered your questions already. This makes things much easier,”Chronos said straightforwardly. “I can swap blood with you.”

Seeing that Zhang Heng did not respond, Chronos continued, “Exchanging blood is not a child’s play. If a God swapped his own blood with yours, then your blood would flow into his body. The influence of an ordinary person’s blood might not be big, but the blood that flows in your body is that Guy’s blood. If it’s polluted by his blood, at worst, you’ll lose your strength, at worst… You’ll go insane, just like the fanatics you met in Greenland. Therefore, the god who did this will have to pay a high price.”

Zhang Heng waited patiently for Kronos to finish.

“Of course, I didn’t help you change your blood because of my love for you. In fact, I’ve been eyeing you for a long time, or to be more precise, I’ve been eyeing that guy in the city under the ice. When I heard that there were fanatics looking for a container for that guy, I knew my chance had come. This is also why I decided to set up that expedition team to go deep into Greenland’s no man’s land 17 years ago.”

Kronos said slowly, like the most patient docent in the museum.

“As I said before, the biggest difference between gods and mortals is that our fate has been written from the beginning. It’s like a satellite moving around a predetermined orbit. Even if we know what will happen in the future, we can’t change it. For example, the gods of Asgard understand that the twilight of the gods will come, but they can’t kill Loki and his three children before that day arrives.

“In the same way, you’ve experienced so many dungeons, so you must have seen some declining gods. Those ancient gods, as time passed, fewer and fewer people remembered them, and their strength became weaker and weaker, even worse than a dog.”

“Molesby?”

“That’s right. The monster that we fought together used to be one of us in the distant past. Although the way it collects and worships is crude and bloody, it’s completely predictable that it will turn into what it is today. Therefore, you might have some questions when you hear this. If that’s the case, why doesn’t it change the way it collects and worships? Look at the new gods today. They collect and worship in all kinds of strange ways, and they have all kinds of clergy. Since he can’t beat me in terms of time, it’s fine to play Douyin.”

“It’s not that the ancient gods are unwilling, but that they can’t do it?”Zhang Heng asked.

“It seems like you’ve noticed the main point of the story. We can’t change the course of the story,”Chronos said, enunciating each word, “Just like Odin will eventually die in Fenrir’s mouth, this is the gift of fate to us. Therefore, for the Old Gods, unless we kill the new gods, it will be difficult for us to escape the fate of decline. Other than a lucky person like Thor, we can’t become strong again through our own efforts.

“This is also the most fundamental contradiction between the new gods and the Old Gods, the origin of this war,”Chronos said, “However, there are some of us who are not willing to be manipulated by fate. I am one, but I am not the only one. As far as I know, the god of games, Gaime, has also been searching for a way to free the gods from their shackles. I don’t know if Gaime has found it or not, but I have indeed found a way to become stronger through ways other than collecting and worshipping.”

“How do I do that?”

“Since I can’t change my own orbit, I’ll introduce another one,”Chronos said slowly, “There’s a very simple reason. Once the two satellites collide, their orbits will naturally change.”

“But if the two satellites collide, there’s a very high chance that one or both of them will be destroyed.”

“There is such a possibility, but this is a risk I am willing to take. It is not a coincidence that I targeted the owner of the city under the ice. Even among the new gods, he is the most special one

“Because he is the so-called new doomsday of the 21st century?”

“Because he is the freest existence among us. The description of him has always been vague. His creator has given him a mysterious characteristic that can not be recognized and understood. It has also given him a considerable degree of freedom of movement. If I obtain Thor’s power, then one day, when Thor is also forgotten by others, my power will weaken again. However, it is different. I see endless possibilities in it. If I can obtain his power, not only will it change my fate, I might even be able to completely break free from the shackles of fate and do something that even Gaime could not do.”

“What do you need to do to gain his power?”Zhang Heng asked with a frown.

“That’s where your help comes in. I’ve already made all the necessary preparations, and there’s only one thing left. The most crucial piece of the puzzle, and that is the blood in your body. Originally, this was something that I couldn’t obtain no matter what, because the blood exchange can only be carried out when both parties are willing. And that guy in underice city is obviously not willing to exchange blood with me, but thankfully, there’s still you. You’re his vessel, and his blood flows through your body, but you’re not under his control.”

Kronos appeared to be extremely patient, “The blood mixed with your parents’blood gave birth to you, but for the current you, they have become a burden. The source of your nightmares. give them to me, and you will be free, and I will be able to regain the power I have dreamed of. This is the best choice for both of us.”
