Gods, I am the ancient Greek god of joy

Chapter 126 World Consciousness Awakens

Just as Zagros and Dahei were eating the strange hot pot, the world suddenly trembled. Zagros was so frightened that the strange thing in his hand fell directly into the soup. Then he let out a scream and was burned to ashes by Dahei's underworld fire.

Zagreus waved his hand to collect the things on the table, then came to the balcony. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds and pink lightning appeared in the sky. At the same time, a large amount of spiritual energy and black fog appeared out of thin air, and the concentration was instantly several times stronger than before.

"Oh my god! Where does so much spiritual energy come from in this ghost world? Could it be that the consciousness of that world has awakened?"

Zagreus's mental power penetrated directly through the dark clouds in the sky, and he discovered that the dark clouds exuded a strong sense of death. This dark cloud was not just in Jianghuai City, but the entire world was shrouded in this dark cloud.

“Buzz~Boom!!”

There was a loud bang, which was the wail of the world. Then Zagros discovered that the spiritual energy and black fog around him had become thicker. Then Zagros suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if the whole world was undergoing subtle changes!

"Huh? Greek mythology has disappeared. No, the entire Greece has disappeared!"

Zagreus suddenly found that the whole world had become unusually quiet, as if time had been frozen. He began to feel something was wrong, because he noticed that everything around him, including space and time, was constantly appearing phantoms, and the phantoms were constantly overlapping. Then, he was surprised to find that all records about him, or the records about Dionysus, the god of wine, were disappearing at an alarming speed!

This disappearance is not forgetting or covering up in the ordinary sense, but an erasure from the source, just like the white edges of a landscape painting are cut off. Although it does not affect the painting itself, it is indeed missing something.

Zagros thought of the Greece he had been to. He was sure that this city existed in this world. However, the Greece in this world was just a backdrop of the world. Although there were legends of Greek mythology in books, they were just written records. Except for the twelve main gods, the rest of the gods were only mentioned in passing.

Fortunately, as one of the important gods in ancient Greek mythology, the various versions of his stories are relatively complete. However, at this moment, records of Dionysus, the god of wine, are constantly disappearing from history.

As the god of wine himself, he could naturally sense that the records belonging to himself, including the records of the entire Greek mythology, were constantly disappearing. He casually picked up a collection of world mythology and first discovered that the pages related to his records seemed to have never existed at all. A few minutes later, he discovered that all the records about Greek mythology were constantly disappearing.

Zagreus saw with his own eyes that the book in his hand was becoming fewer pages at a time, and when a dozen pages of Greek mythology disappeared, the rest of the text in the book instantly became blurred. When the text became clear again, the layout had changed, and other irrelevant content followed seamlessly to fill in the missing parts.

Suddenly, an invisible pressure emerged from the void. This force quickly spread throughout the room, sweeping every corner.

Then, this mysterious pressure directly locked onto Zagreus himself. The next second, the house was filled with wind and clouds, and a black storm suddenly arose. Countless tiny black lightning bolts spread out like snakes, interweaving into a black electric net.

But when the lightning tried to hit Zagreus, it suddenly changed its course the moment it landed in front of him, as if it was pulled by another force and hit somewhere else directly. Once the furniture in the house came into contact with the lightning, there was no explosion, and it just disappeared without any warning.

A few seconds later, the neatly arranged tables, chairs, decorations and other objects in the house disappeared one after another, leaving only an empty room, as if nothing had ever existed here. But Zagreus stood in the middle of the room, casually grabbed, twisted his wrist, and directly wrapped the raging lightning around his arm. With a light flick of his fingers, the lightning disappeared instantly.

"It's you who did it. I didn't expect you to be so petty and want to take action so hastily. If it weren't for you, I would have forgotten that I still have the authority to control thunder and lightning."

The one that appeared this time was naturally the world consciousness. It seemed that what he had done during this period had caused it considerable damage, so as soon as he woke up, it sent a clone to vent his anger on him.

As expected, a consciousness appeared in the void, but this consciousness was filled with emotions such as rage and confusion. It seems that the impact of the black fog on the world's consciousness is greater than imagined.

However, this level of lightning could not cause any harm to him. It seemed that this consciousness was unwilling to give up, and began to gather more powerful strength. The space around him began to tear apart, and the black cracks carried a destructive force and attacked Zagros. But just as the cracks were about to spread to his side, Zagros took off the doomsday horn that had turned into a pendant from his hand and subconsciously smashed it out with force.

The horn of doom grew longer as it saw the wind, and its body directly rolled up the destructive force, like a torrent that smashed into the void along the hideous cracks.

Immediately afterwards, Zagreus heard a thunderous noise that shook the earth from the air outside. At the same time, the raging void cracks healed rapidly at an astonishing speed and returned to normal in a flash. It was obvious that the Doomsday Horn had the upper hand.

As for Zagreus, he just stood there quietly, staring at the disappearing gap, thinking about something in his heart. After a moment, the Horn of Doom reappeared in his hand. He watched a drop of golden blood emitting the breath of the world being absorbed by the Horn of Doom. After a cold snort at the disappearing void, the wandering consciousness disappeared instantly.

Then Zagreus reached into the void and took out the book he had put away before, and found that the records that had disappeared before had reappeared. Although other stories of Greek mythology still disappeared, only one sentence was left to summarize: the former Greek mythology had disappeared in history, and the god of wine Dionysus was the only record obtained from the ruins. Then the story about the god of wine Dionysus reappeared.

He had no way to deal with this, after all, the world was not his, the entire Greek mythology including the country of Greece had been erased, and he was the only one who survived due to his own strength, so only events related to him could be recorded. But just as Zagros was about to close the book, the previous feeling of time and space confusion reappeared.

"Again?!"

The clay man was still a little angry, and Zagros was about to lose his temper, but this time the power was not directed at him. Zagros immediately opened the book in his hand, and then he was stunned.

Previously, the mythological stories in his hand were as thick as a brick, but now there are only a few dozen pages left in the book. The stories of the Eagle Kingdom, the Kangaroo Kingdom and other countries have all disappeared. Zagreus casually found a world map from the warehouse of Elysee and found that now except for the Asian plate, the rest of the continents have all disappeared, leaving only the bare ocean. It can be seen from the map that the ocean has shrunk countless times.

Then Zagros felt that the world's restrictions on his power suddenly loosened a lot, which meant that the world itself was getting stronger, so the upper limit became higher.

But Zagros did not feel relaxed. Although the upper limit of the world was raised, he felt it was more crowded, as if the living space was shrinking.

"Something happened! I felt the main consciousness attack you!"

Just as Zagreus was shocked, a figure walked out from the surrounding space. It was obviously Gaia, but at this time Gaia had a worried look on her face. When she appeared, she saw that the surroundings were empty, and then she sniffed, "Has it been here?"

Zagreus nodded and handed over the map, but Gaia seemed to have known it for a long time. "The main consciousness has gone completely crazy. It directly extracted all the continents and oceans except Asia, and wiped out other countries and creatures from the source. Now the whole world has shrunk by two-thirds. Alaya has been seriously injured by the sharp decline in humans, and now has to hide in the human consciousness to recuperate."

Zagreus closed his eyes and sensed his own clan, and found that most of his clan members had also been destroyed. All the monsters he had thrown abroad disappeared, and he had not taken back those powers. The world consciousness was like cutting off one's own arm. In order to prevent the monsters and humans from continuing to absorb its origin, he hurt the enemy by a thousand and suffered eighteen of his own. So it was obvious that Alaya and he suffered the greatest losses this time.

Because Gaia has the same origin as the world consciousness, she did not suffer too much damage. Although half of the world was gone, the ratio of her control over the world consciousness remained unchanged. But this time, Alaya was indeed seriously injured. The original population of more than 6 billion was directly reduced to 3 billion. Her strength was directly cut in half. If she dared to show up and fight against the world consciousness before, now she probably won't dare to come out in the short term.

Zagros also suffered a lot of losses this time, but it can only be said that the benefits were reduced. It did not cause any harm to him himself, but his influence on the world was also weakened.
