48 Hours a Day

"Sorry, the area is not open at the moment."

As more and more gods began to explore the area, there were also more and more people who received a similar tone in their ears.

Now it wasn't just the Tarot Gods, the other gods also changed their faces one after another.

"Why is this happening?"

"Is Gaim messing with us, and he's trying to count us out even at a time like this?"

"What the hell does Gaim want, to imprison us in this hellhole forever?"

"Where's Isis, who was closer to her before she came in, and knows where she ran off to."

"............"

The gods were making a lot of noise, trying to figure out what the situation was now, but unfortunately there were a whole lot of multifarious speculations and not many useful suggestions.

That's when someone finally noticed Koronos, who had been looking on indifferently and silently, and rushed at him, "God of Time, do you have any good suggestions for our current predicament?"

"Wait."

Kronos opened his mouth and spat out the word.

"Wait? Waiting for what?" Hercules, the mighty god, frowned, "The city under the ice guy is still behind us though, and I don't know if the god of fiction will manage to destroy that door, let's just find Gaim or Isis and at least cut off the passage before we do anything else."

Koronos snorted at the words, he hadn't wanted to explain any further, but seeing another other god looking here, he knew in his heart that if he wanted to get out of here in the future, he couldn't do so without the help of others, and right now he had to unite all the forces he could, hence the patience to continue.

"Gaim can't be unprepared for what lies beyond the gates since he has done this and counted all of us in, his relationship with the god of fiction is extraordinary, there must still be set-ups both here and outside of us, and now that we are in his territory, there is no other way but to wait."

Hercules the Great God's brow loosened slightly and he had to admit that Kronos' words sounded reasonable, yet he couldn't help but say, "So how long exactly are we going to have to wait in this hellhole, a day, a week, or a month? If Gaim never comes to us, then won't we have to wait until the sea runs dry."

"The kind of situation you're talking about is possible, but the probability is very small," Koronos said, "Gaim isn't a madman like Seth, there's a strong logic behind everything he does, just look at the decoration and layout of this place, you can see that it's just a sort of transportation transit station for the Area, normally, we wouldn't be here long."

And as if to confirm Coronos' words, it wasn't long after he finished speaking, the large screen in the center of the waiting room, as well as all the hanging TVs, lit up.

And the gods were finally seeing that somewhat young face again after five months!

The Game God Gaim who appeared on the screen, with a pair of sleepy eyes on top, looked like an elementary school student who had just played the game all night long but had to struggle to get up early for school.

Although many people were unhappy with Gaim's actions of trapping them in this waiting room, Gaim was still the head of the gods, and the previous accumulation of power was still there, especially at this point now, when Ksuru had broken free from his undersea prison and was killing people on earth, forcing the gods to hide in the new world, terrified as if they were dogs.

At such times, both the new and old gods missed the days when Gaim was still around.

Some were even in tears of excitement at the sight of Gaim, yet the God of Games himself looked a little embarrassed as he scratched his head and adjusted the camera in front of him, all the while seemingly using the time to organize his language and finally spoke, "Welcome, welcome to the 'station'. "

"The station?" Kronos raised an eyebrow, "So, this place is really just a transit station now, I just don't know, where do the trains in your station end up leading?"

"Access to the various copies of the game world." The little boy replied quickly as if he could hear Koronos' question.

The gods were in an uproar at the news, the previous game world was originally built by them accepting Gaim's invitation to build it together, yet they never knew that there was a place called a station hidden in that game world.

Of course, Gaim had disappeared for four months, and he was able to build a new site on his own, but trying to connect this new area called the station to each of the replicas, which involved structurally adjusting the original structure, was a very difficult task, basically equivalent to redoing half of the game.

Therefore, the only explanation for the current situation was that this area called the Station had been in Gaim's plans since he first started building the magnificent game world he envisioned, but he had hidden it from everyone but him.

It wasn't until today that the place was put into use and welcomed its first guests.

And by this time even the Pantheon God, who didn't like to think much, reacted by lowering that goat-horned head, "Respected Game God Gaim, why did you leave such an area behind our backs?"

"In order for the game to go to stage three." Gaim poured out a question.

"Stage three? We thought we'd agreed that this game was only for the human players," said the Autobot, "The first stage will allow us to choose our agents, and the second stage will allow those agents to fight to end our conflicts and abandon our old and bloody traditions. What is the third stage as far as stepping into civilization?"

Gaim was silent for a moment at his words, then spoke again, "I'm sorry, I hid something from you all earlier, and I'm sure some of you have guessed by now what the real purpose of my building this game is."

"Are you insane?!" Kronos sank in, "You may be the most powerful one of us, but who are you to decide the fate of us all? Decide where we will live?"

His words were also echoed by a group of gods.

But Gaim was now gradually recovering from his initial bashfulness, and scratched his head again at the Time Lord's question, "Weren't you the ones who got desperate and entered my game world to seek refuge?"

Kronos, "............,"

"And really, if you want to count it, it was you who caused the trouble, Koronos, who brought that human out of the city under the ice and made him your agent again, all the while keeping his true identity hidden."
