greek gods in new york

21

The famous game producer turned out to be the god of video games.

There is nothing more absurd than this in the world!

To let Meryl know, she must be so excited that she fainted on the spot.

However, Kojima Hideo cannot save the high school students who are about to enter the end of term.

In the next few days, as Loki said, "that thing" did not appear again.

I always carry a cotton doll, but it's useless.

Fortunately not.

Because the final exam plus knowledge competition will really crush people!

Hermes disappeared after throwing the question bank to me. He nicknamed it "the boss is very busy", but in fact he might go to another bridge hole to gamble big.

But right now I don't have free time to think about new gods, old gods and other gods.

As soon as the end of the term, Meryl automatically turned on the ghost mode. She not only wanted to study crazily by herself, but also pushed me to study crazily.

Under such a premise, Loki, who is also sitting in the library but fiddling with his mobile phone and tablet, is particularly hateful.

"I didn't touch fish either."

Rocky is still confident: "You are busy studying, let me help you to see the course selection for next semester."

After speaking, he flipped the tablet and showed me what was on the screen.

"I have to say, Meryl's curriculum planning is much better than yours," Rocky said unceremoniously, "What did you choose, Nicole! I told you that you can't always choose easy courses, and Don’t choose randomly, you must have an advanced plan. If you don’t take a course to a certain level, you can’t take AP courses!”

The AP courses that Rocky calls are the pre-requisite courses for universities.

If you want to apply to an Ivy League school like Harvard University, the scores of AP courses are essential.

"A total of four years, it sounds like a long time, but it actually passes in the blink of an eye," Rocky said, "Let me see, in the next semester, the Spanish class can be kept, and the Spanish literature and language courses can be considered later. one time."

Of course.

Thanks to Fernando, there is a godfather who has spoken Spanish to me since I was a child, and my oral English is indeed not bad.

Spanish class is also a rare class where I can be top-notch in school.

"Others..."

Loki tapped the edge of the tablet lightly with his index finger.

"European history, world geography, and literary writing in English, of course research and seminars are also essential, oh yes—"

"and many more!"

I grabbed Loki by the sleeve.

"You," I swallowed my saliva, "you want me to fix everything you said, right?"

Are you just kidding, split me in half and turn me into two people, you can't finish learning, okay?

I'm not studying at Hogwarts, so I don't have a time-turner to use.

"I just listed AP courses that you could consider," Rocky said. "You see if you are interested, and you can choose courses in a specific direction."

"...Do you have to take humanities courses?"

I feel that the final exam of the philosophy class is going to be over, and it is not realistic to take AP courses in this direction.

Loki: "Hmmm..."

He pondered for a moment: "If you don't choose humanities, are you good at physical chemistry?"

Uh.

In fact, it didn't get any better.

I searched my brains: "At least me, I play football very well!"

Even our football teacher still likes me very much. He said that if I can keep it up, he will let me join the football team to participate in training in the second year of high school.

I have already thought about it, if I can enter the school team, I will definitely go.

If you can play smoothly and get a good place in the game, it will also add a good-looking item to your resume.

To get into a good university, grades alone are not enough.

"Haha."

Loki seemed to see through my thoughts.

He leaned back and leaned back in the chair: "There are times when you can play, but not now. Nicole, you can't get into a religious studies major by playing football."

This is true.

I can't help being frustrated: it's too difficult to let the scumbags study hard.

Probably because my expression was too exaggerated, Meryl, who was seriously endorsing me at the side, raised her head.

She adjusted the thick mirror frame, and there was a look of disapproval in her eyes under her bangs.

"If Nicole is not interested," Meryl disagreed, "why must she study religion?"

"..."

Of course, it was because the participants in the Lazarus project back then had professors of religious studies.

But these words cannot be said to Meryl.

I can only lower my voice: "To be precise, Meimei, I'm not interested in all majors."

If so, who wants to learn? !

However, my spit-like persuasion did not succeed in persuading Meryl.

She frowned slightly.

"If you don't have a major you like, you can choose a more practical direction," Meryl said. "Economics and finance, computer science, or language, at least after graduation, the employment scope is wider and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. Majors like religious studies , you can only do research after reading it, if you don’t like it, how painful is it?”

"Not always."

Rocky said nonchalantly, "We're only freshmen in high school now, and we haven't had any experience with religious studies. How do you know that Nicole won't like it?"

Meryl refused to budge: "The core of humanities majors is the same, and literature, history and philosophy are closely related to each other. Religious studies involve history, philosophy and anthropology, while Nicole finds it difficult to even get started with the most basic philosophy. How could you like it? Kainas, you can’t just help others decide their future path.”

In private, I took Loki one at a time, but Meryl suddenly called out "Kainas", which made me stunned.

I didn't expect that Meryl, who is usually short-tempered and talkative, would suddenly express her objection firmly.

However, Loki was not surprised at all when facing Meryl, who rarely spoke out.

He rested his cheeks and tilted his head, with a faint smile on his lips.

The dark blue eyes turned, and the emotion in them could not be said to be mocking or provocative.

"Meryl, I really want to know."

"what?"

"Everyone is a freshman in high school," Loki asked with a smile, "Why do you know everything?"

I squinted.

At this point, I would be a fool if I couldn't see that Loki was hostile to Meryl.

Thinking about it carefully, Loki seems to have always been wary of Meryl.

It's too weird.

You know, he is Loki!

The God of Deceit can be completely impeccable, even if he has a grudge, he can still show incomparable intimacy.It's too easy to please a home girl, Loki is also friends with the video game god, and Meryl is a fan of Hideo Kojima.

But he doesn't.

"Lo... Kainas."

I warned: "Did you take the wrong medicine today?"

Loki: "Wow, that's too direct."

I:"……"

Who exactly? !

Loki was not very happy to see me, so he stopped asking questions.

He put away his tablet, pushed away the chair and stood up.

"Then let's talk about course selection later, you guys prepare for the final exam first," Rocky waved his hand, "I also have exercises to do, so I won't bother you."

Weird.

Meryl and I watched Loki leave in a weird atmosphere.

After his back disappeared into the library, Meryl helped the mirror frame again, and turned to look at me: "What's wrong with your boyfriend?!"

I:"……"

"What boyfriend," I retorted, "looks like Aragorn's boyfriend? I can't stand it!"

"I think there's something wrong with Kaynas."

Meryl said solemnly: "Nicole, I don't know exactly how you met him, but...don't you think he's weird?"

That's true.

The sudden transfer student came up and talked about our old acquaintances, interfering in the friendship between me and Meryl.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that I have ungrateful for sex and have friends who are coldly ignored by handsome guys.

The point is, I haven't been able to explain it to Meryl yet.

Just keeping this from Meryl is enough to make me feel guilty.

Just...can't you tell her?

This thought circled in my mind: Meryl is home, playing games again, and addicted to science fiction, fantasy, comic novels, movies and TV series, which is a standard nerd.

I am used to seeing the strangeness of the virtual world, if you explain to her about the foreign gods, new gods and old gods, she will definitely understand quickly.

Maybe a hundred thousand fathers of the gods added up is not as shocking as "Kaynas knows her favorite game producer".

I hesitate for a moment.

Well, go back and ask Fernando.

…………

……

After school in the afternoon.

Loki grabbed me, "Aragorn" had an extremely serious expression: "I think there is something wrong with Meryl."

I:"……"

I've heard the same lines with Meryl, thank you!

"I don't listen."

Before Loki opened his mouth, I shook my head: "Didn't you say you don't want to disturb my normal life, then don't provoke me and my Qingmei relationship!"

Loki raised an eyebrow.

He seemed to want to say something more, but when the words reached his lips, he finally swallowed them.

"Forget it then," he backed off, "Teach me about the investigation, and I'll show you something good first."

"good stuff?"

"The god of video games returned to Japan. Before he left, he gave me a device, saying that he could detect the existence of the Outer God," Loki explained. "You put the device in your bedroom. "Things', not only will it shape you, but the data collected by the equipment will be transmitted to Xinshen as soon as possible."

After speaking, Loki picked up his backpack.

Only then did I realize that his backpack was bulging.

Meeting my gaze, Loki undid his backpack and unzipped it.

I watched helplessly as he pulled a...

Fetal models housed in Petri dishes.

I:"……"

Loki carelessly handed me the fetal model: "Take it home."

Me: "Are you sick?!"

The "that thing" I encountered before was already very similar to the plot of a horror movie. In the end, a fetal model was inserted into me. Could it be more terrifying!

"what happened?"

Rocky was inexplicable: "Death Stranding hasn't been released yet, you already got the limited merchandise, or is it the only version infused with divine power in the world, do you still dislike it?"

I:"…………"

I remembered.

In the game trailer that Meryl forced me to watch, the main character actually had such a fetus hanging from his chest.

This is an important character in the game "Death Stranding"...Props... Anyway, there is such a thing.

It is no exaggeration to say that the surrounding area is limited.

but--

"Why give me a fetus! Isn't it good to give me a model of the protagonist?"

I refuse with all my might.

Just imagine, put such a thing in the bedroom, the picture is too weird, okay?

Loki: "The god of video games will contact you through BB at a critical moment, take it quickly."

Help!

I won't dare to go to the bathroom when I wake up at night!
