My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 739: Yunhaiyao, Shanmu Mountain, Born from Dust, Returning to the Earth

At this critical juncture, the young man who usually took the lead suddenly asked him to take over the main consciousness.

Of course, a certain clay doll would not agree with this:
"How can I do this? I am just a weapon. I cannot abandon my master. As a master, you should not be so casual."

"That being said, I only summoned you at the beginning. Shouldn't it be Fujimaru Ritsuka who actually signed the contract with you?"

"But, this power..."

"If you want your employees to work, you have to pay them. Well, you don't want to have a thousand-watt light bulb staring at you when you're alone with your Jill, do you? And..."

"and?"

"Ah, it's nothing. Anyway, I wish you a safe journey in advance. Have a pleasant trip. My phone is out of battery. I'm hanging up now!"

As the conversation ended, 'Shuoyue' opened his eyes, with green flashing in his pupils.

"It's not a cell phone and I don't need to refuel, but... my consciousness is really completely silent."

"Hey, cook, cook!"

Someone patted his shoulder unceremoniously and said, "In Uruk, the main means of transportation is the donkey. Although the best donkey cart in Uruk has been driven away by Fujimaru, the one I like is not bad either. Next..."

"Let the donkey pull the goods, and then move the water bottle up." The young man fluently took over the words of the wise king, "Since you are going south to the Persian Gulf, you are going to collect seawater samples, right?"

"You..." Gilgamesh frowned, "I don't think I've ever told you this."

But that doesn't mean I don't know, Jill.

'Shuoyue' smiled without saying a word and completed the travel preparations neatly and efficiently.

After a brief moment of confusion and discomfort, new emotions have grown in my heart and eventually spread to every corner of my body.

He couldn't help but smile, filled with joy.

Ah, the long-awaited journey has begun.

"Looks like it's starting, Elle."

"I don't quite understand... Is this what you want to do?"

In the temple filled with dim blue candlelight, there were two figures leaning on a large sofa, with the wall in front of them projecting the scene on the ground. The face of one of the young men was exactly the same as the 'Shuoyue' who was walking with the king on the ground.

Beside him, the goddess of the underworld stretched her limbs lazily, looking well-behaved and cute. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be looking at the projection screen or stealing glances at the person next to her.

A cracked bone mask hung on the other side of the wall. In the candlelight, a strange light flickered in the eye sockets.

The crowd watched the couple peeping at each other's affair.

"You seem to be in a much better condition after being hit by Marduk's axe, Shuoyue." Ailei rubbed the spirit of Garula in her arms and said casually, "You actually have the leisure to sit here and watch the show."

Hearing this, Shuoyue retracted his gaze and smiled as he showed the faded lines on his face to the goddess of the underworld: "Thanks to Fujimaru, the compulsory contract from Tima was reduced a lot by Marduk's divine power, and finally a balance was reached with the Third Law and the Rebellious Spirit Son, so I don't have to be helpless every day."

At least he won't go to Uruk and cause trouble. The damage caused will have to be cleaned up by dear Miss Elle.

"Really?" After letting go of her hand, the Garula spirit floated into the sky like a balloon. Ailei didn't care, she just raised her head and looked at Shuoyue's face carefully, "Come, let me take a closer look."

"Thank you for your concern, but I'm really fine..." Shuoyue said, but his voice suddenly stopped.

He didn't know when, the goddess had come closer, her long hair falling like a golden waterfall, making the young man hold his breath and his eyes wandering away involuntarily.

But after a moment, Ai Lei raised her soft waist and shrank back as if nothing had happened: "Well, mother's breath has become much lighter, which is great."

As she nodded seriously, a pair of snow-white, slender, perfect long legs were placed on the sofa, along with the glittering golden anklets, which made people lose their minds.

Noticing Shuoyue's gaze, Ailei raised the corners of her mouth like a little fox, her face flushed, but she pretended nothing had happened and observed the screen carefully.

"Look, they're leaving."

"Ah, oh..." Shuoyue responded subconsciously, and with difficulty retracted his gaze and looked forward.

Between the blue sky and white clouds, two donkey carts drove out of the city gate at the same time.

The journey begins.

After bypassing the dense forest inhabited by monsters, we arrived at the wilderness where few people have ever been. Even though the earth was monotonous and empty, the sky above was azure blue, like a crystal clear water mirror.

The refreshing wind passed by the donkey cart and gently embraced the traveler's cheek, so both the king and the people showed a comfortable expression.

"The Zagros Mountains are covered with beautiful clouds. I should sing a line here. [White snow peaks, distant sea of ​​clouds, fir mountain...] Hmm, this line doesn't seem very good."

Like a bard, the wise king was enthusiastically pondering over the verses that had been inspired: "Well, how about changing it?" "I came as wind and left as mist; I was born from dust and will return to the earth." The young man driving the donkey cart responded in a low voice, "You have said it very well, king."

"Really?" The wise king, who was sitting on the edge of the car, turned his head and said meaningfully, "I just think that the word 'cedar' can be replaced with something more appropriate."

"Does this word have any special meaning to you?" Shuoyue asked as if he didn't understand.

The carriage fell into silence. After a long moment, Gilgamesh spoke slowly.

"There was a person who could listen to me." He looked at the clear sky. "There are things that ordinary people cannot hear, but I can tell him all at once."

"But what has this to do with the fir forest?"

"In the end, that guy died." The king said calmly, "I witnessed it with my own eyes. He died in the fir forest."

"Oh... that's true." Holding the reins tightly in his hands, 'Shuoyue' silently felt the throbbing in his heart, and his tone was still calm, "What a pity."

"Oh, right." The young man suddenly turned around and said, "That friend...what's his name?"

"Friend?" The wise king repeated the word, as if he couldn't believe it. "I thought you were going to say something. You asked me about my friend? I think you misunderstood something."

"Eh?"

"Even if it had a name, I've forgotten it long ago. I can't... say it anymore." Gilgamesh said unhappily as the white ribbon rose, but there was not a trace of anger in his voice.

"I can't say it anymore."

"...I see." Facing the king's words, 'Shuo Yue' simply nodded and accepted it as a fact.

Whether Gilgamesh still remembered his friend's name or not, it was clear just by hearing this answer.

Feeling disappointed?
That's right.

after all--

"My [last wish] has not been fulfilled at all..."

No one spoke anymore. The two young men leaned against the ox cart, feeling the Mesopotamian wind and looking at the beautiful scenery in the distance.

Just like the youth time that is gone and will never come back.

"Ohhhhhhhhh...perfect, wonderful, Sbarasi!"

Compared to the two people who spoke in silence, the spectators in the underworld seemed much more enthusiastic. Not only Shuoyue had an auntie smile, but even Ailei's eyes began to sparkle.

As a young lady who knows all the gossip about the Uruk duo but has never followed the drama herself, how could I not be attracted by the subtle emotions between these two people?

It's great, this kind of tacit understanding revealed invisibly -

Thinking of this, she looked at the young man beside her who was watching with great interest, and then she couldn't help but pursed her lips, feeling a little resentful.

In comparison, I really don’t know if this guy is slow or doing it on purpose.

"Ding ding ding!" Suddenly, a Garula spirit rushed into the temple and circled around her anxiously.

"What happened?" Ai Lei was stunned, but quickly realized, "You said Jingu has access to the communication? Oh no, Shuoyue——"

As soon as she finished speaking, the sofa disappeared, and the goddess, caught off guard, sat down on the cold obsidian floor, her face wrinkled in pain.

When I looked around with a sense of blame, I found that the young man had put on a black robe and a mask at some point. The cold aura spread like a tide, covering the projection screen.

"Move, move so fast..."

When Jin Gu's image appeared, what was seen was the "weapon" in a black robe and bone mask, and Ai Lei with an unhappy look on her face.

"Jin Gu, what's the matter that you contacted me suddenly?" The moment she saw him, the goddess of the underworld raised her chin, her arrogance and disdain clearly revealed.

And Jingu didn't care, but asked anxiously: "Is the mother - the goddess Gorgon - here with you?"

"Eh?" Ailei's deliberately disguised attitude melted away. She blinked her eyes and said dully, "She, I mean, Gorgon is dead?"

"That's not the case!" Jin Gu's face was dark, and he hurriedly explained, "My mother produced too many magical beasts yesterday, and she consumed too much energy, so I deliberately let her rest. I wanted to go find her at noon today..."

"But when I arrived at the temple, I found that she was gone!"

The Warcraft Goddess, who possesses the power of the "womb of all beasts", has disappeared. Such sudden bad news makes Jingu inevitably anxious.

"Damn it, if Mother hadn't been hiding here with you, where would she have gone?"
