I, Son of Tiamat

When Fujimaru Rika fell into the underworld before, she was unable to communicate with Chaldea, but this time is different, because everyone in Chaldea has been staring at the data in the singularity.

As long as adjustments and corrections are made in time, even if Fujimaru Rika enters the underworld, Chaldea will still be able to contact her.

So there was no need for Fujimaru Rika to contact Chaldea. After Chaldea heard Qiye's words, he took the initiative to speak.

"The connection is still smooth. Originally we thought we couldn't observe it, but now it seems to be unfounded!" Romani in Chaldea said with peace of mind.

"That would be the best."

Soon, the four of them passed through the formed tunnel stairs and landed smoothly on the earth of the underworld.

"If you want to find the goddess of the underworld, you have to go through the seven gates of the underworld, let's go there, you follow me, remember, don't casually talk to any existence in the underworld, for example Garula Spirit or something." Nanye said to Fujimaru Rika and Mash.

"Understood!" Fujimaru Rika and Matthew nodded solemnly.

And Ishtar's expression was a little uncomfortable, because as soon as she heard the "Seven Gates of the Underworld", she recalled the tragic experience she had once had.

Once Ishtar and Seven Nights went to the underworld, the crown of the wilderness, the reed measuring ruler, the glass jewelry, the gold bracelet, the beaded necklace, and the charm pectoral on her body were all used to bribe the first six gates of the underworld.

At the last door, Ishtar originally planned to use the lady's costume on him to bribe...

But because of some subtle factors, Qiye replaced it with his own 'Tree of Life Flute'.

"If we want to pass through the seven gates of the underworld, we have to be careful. I don't know what method that hateful woman will use to hinder us this time." Ishtar complained.

Qiye glanced sideways at Ishtar, he said with a smile, "This time, do you still want to carry it?"

Hearing Qiye's words, Ishtar was stunned for a moment, and then she showed a charming smile, "Are you willing?"

"Rika and Matthew are willing."

"Forget it." Ishtar wrinkled his delicate nose at Qiye.

Ishtar knew what Qiye said just now. When she entered the underworld with him, she wanted to carry her back because she hated touching the land of the underworld.

As for why Qiye brought up this matter at this time, it was probably because he missed the mess with her.

"Well..." Ai Lei, who was located in the palace of the underworld, stopped the act of compiling the gun cell, and then looked in the direction of Qiye and the others, she muttered to herself with a complicated expression, "He's here, it's also time Make a break."

Smooth all the way!

I don't know if it's because Nanye, an extraditer from the underworld, is leading Fujimaru Tatsuka and the others, or because Ailey didn't let the Garula spirits come to stop them.

So Qiye and the others came to the Seventh Gate of the Underworld smoothly without encountering any attack.

There are countless gun cells erected on the ground on the side of the Seventh Gate of the Underworld, and each gun cell has a strange blue light. These lights are like birds imprisoned in a cage and cannot leave. .

Nanaye and Ishtar looked at the first gate of the seven gates of the underworld in front of them, while Fujimaru Tachika and Mash looked at the nearby gun cell with curiosity.

"Mr. Qiye, what are these, I stared at them and seemed to see some strange pictures." Matthew pointed to one of the gun cells, and then asked Qiye.

Turning his head, Qiye glanced at the gun cell that Matthew pointed to, and he explained, "That's the gun cell used by the goddess of the underworld to carry her soul. As for the picture you see in that light, it's actually that one. The memory of the soul before it was alive."

"Then why does the goddess of the underworld use this kind of gun prison to load her soul?"

"Of course it's because of her wickedness!" Ishtar took over the topic, and she hummed with her arms crossed, "Hmph, Ereshkigal's gun cell was specially used to imprison her. The souls you like, let them never disappear, and stay in the gun prison all the time."

"When the souls are completely dead, their souls will gradually thin, and finally disappear like this, but that guy can't allow this, she will lock the souls she likes in the gun prison, and then play with her for tens of thousands of years. Have fun with it."

"Is that so." Fujimaru Rika touched her arm with goosebumps, because she recalled the original Babylonian people who were not human or ghosts she had encountered before.

They slowly decay in time, and when they are completely decayed, the tragic situation will end.

But this is different. Those guys have committed a crime, and committed the sin of following Aga, the betrayer of God, that's why they were punished like this.

"The souls imprisoned in that cage will not disappear. Until Ereshkigal gets tired of playing, they will be imprisoned in the gun prison like this."

Qiye glanced at Ishtar, who was talking. He was the extradition of the goddess of the underworld. He knew better than anyone the meaning of the goddess of the underworld imprisoning her soul in a gun prison.

Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld, wanted to eliminate the pain that the soul suffered in her life by constantly recalling the beautiful memories in her soul. After those souls no longer felt miserable, regretful, and regretful about their lives, she Only then will the relieved soul be released from the gun prison.

If you don't believe it, just stare at the souls in the gun prison. The memories of the souls you see are the warm memories that those souls have passed.

Humans who entered the underworld alive saw the scene where their souls were imprisoned in the gun prison, and mistakenly thought it was the bad preference of the goddess of the underworld.

The goddess of the underworld likes to imprison dead souls in gun prisons, and then play with them.

Afterwards, such rumors returned to the human world along with the living human beings, and spread among the human world.

The wind comment of the goddess of the underworld was murdered!

And because there is little communication between the underworld and the human world, such rumors are deeply rooted among all those who do not know the goddess of the underworld.

Although she was misunderstood, the goddess of the underworld who was used to being misunderstood for a long time did not explain too much. She knew what she was doing and knew that she was not persecuting her soul, and that was enough.

Ishtar looked around, she was surprised and said, "Qiye, why do I feel that the number of gun cells is much larger than before."

"Well, I also think there are a lot of gun cells." Qiye nodded.

The number of gun prisons today is much more than when Ishtar broke into the underworld before, and this is actually quite small. There are countless gun prisons on the other side of the palace in the underworld.

"So many gun cells imprisoning souls..." Ishtar frowned, and she whispered, "That guy imprisoned so many souls, is he planning to build a kingdom of the dead?"

"You really think about building a kingdom of the dead." Qiye rolled his eyes at Ishtar, "I think the number of gun cells will be so many, it's all because of the excessive number of human deaths."

Well, in Mesopotamia at this time, apart from the densely forested cities in the south, there is only the Uruk Palace, which was merged with the Kingdom of Babylon.

Other cities and other kingdoms have been destroyed by the monsters of the goddess of monsters, Gorgon.

If the goddess of beasts didn't turn all human beings into nutrients for the birth of beasts, then there are probably more souls in the underworld.

"Forget about the gun cell now, let's go through the seven gates." Qiye stretched out his palm towards the first gate of the seven gates of the underworld.

As if reaching into the river, Qiye's palm directly passed through the gate of the underworld made of obsidian.

Seeing that he was still able to pass through the gate of the underworld like this, Qiye said to the three of Ishtar behind, "I'll be waiting for you behind the gate."

Fujimaru Rika and Matthew watched Qiye pass through this gate so easily, and they spread their legs, wanting to follow Qiye through this gate.

But Ishtar quickly pulled the two stupid girls, and she said in surprise, "What are you two trying to do?"

"Of course I will." Fujimaru Rika looked at Ishtar suspiciously and said.

"You don't think you can pass like Seven Nights, right?"

Ishtar looked at Fujimaru Rika and Mash who nodded their heads, and she said helplessly, "Seven nights is an extradition from the underworld, so he can pass through the gate of the underworld like this, but neither of you, nor me, will only be The gate of the underworld is blocked."

"Well, then how should we get there?"

"Of course it's a bribe, or to answer the question about the gate of the underworld." Ishtar said, and then she began to grit her teeth, presumably recalling that she once entered the underworld and was taken away by the gate of the underworld. Several treasures tragic experience.

"answer the questions?"

Looking at the confused Fujimaru Tachika and Mash, Ishtar explained, "There are only two ways to pass through the gate of the underworld."

"One is to use treasures to bribe."

"The second is to answer the question posed by the gate of the underworld."

"The gate of the underworld is a gate that questions the soul's good and evil. The questions it asks are fair and rational. For the question of the gate of the underworld, you just need to answer your inner thoughts."

"I see." Fujimaru Rika and Matthew nodded, indicating that they understood.

Qiye is not worried about Fujimaru Rika and Mash, because they are good children, and good children will not be stumped by the gate of the underworld.

But Ishtar's words... well, ask yourself for more blessings.

Fujimaru Rika and Mash walked towards the gate of the underworld together. As they approached, the gate of the underworld began to glow slightly, and the low and majestic voice of the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal, began to come out.

"Answer, answer, you who have fallen into the underworld, answer the meaning of your soul."

"Yeah!" Fujimaru Rika and Mash nodded solemnly, and the two girls replied earnestly, "Please ask."

Ai Lei, who is located in the palace of the underworld, slowed her breath and said, "Although the benchmarks of beauty seem to be varied, they still exist absolutely. Black can beat white, and earth can beat the sky. Since that's the case..."

"Who is the most beautiful, the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal, and the goddess of trouble, Ishtar?"

Romani of Chaldea and the others tilted their bodies, their expressions were stunned and sluggish, because they were all mentally prepared to face serious problems.

But why is the question of the gate to the underworld... so strange!

"Wait for me, this is different from me before!?" Ishtar's eyes widened immediately, and she shouted, "Could it be that the problem of the gate to the underworld is entirely up to you, this guy. Yes!!!"

Ailei, who was in the palace of the underworld, curled the corners of her lips, that's right!

The question raised by the gate of the underworld was decided by her goddess of the underworld!

how! Not convinced, who let you enter the underworld!

The underworld is my territory, so listen to me!

"The goddess of the underworld and... the goddess of annoyance?" Fujimaru Rika and Matthew turned their heads and looked at Ishtar.

And Ishtar, who was a little annoyed, said, "What are you looking at! You still need to observe and think! Of course, I am the most beautiful!"

"Indeed, the goddess Venus is the most beautiful goddess in Mesopotamian mythology. No one can resist her charm." Da Vinci's voice came from Fujimaru Rika's bracelet.

Ishtar smiled with satisfaction, but the next sentence that came out made her smile stiff.

"Who said that Ishtar's charm is unstoppable, the sage stopped it." Romani's serious voice came out.

"..." Fujimaru Rika and Matthew looked at Ishtar whose pretty face was darkened, and silently looked away.

Doctor, if you speak so straightforwardly, you will never find a wife!

With two clicks, Ishtar's jade hands pressed on the shoulders of Fujimaru Tachika and Mash respectively, she said with unquestionable confidence, "I am the most beautiful, even if not the most beautiful, I am more beautiful than the goddess of the underworld! You must know that she is a giant version of Garula Ling!"

"!"

"A giant version of the future?!" Fujimaru Tachika and Matthew blinked, and then they recalled the Garula spirits with skulls and vertebrae in the underground tunnels of Uruk.

"If it's Garula Ling, then Miss Ishtar is indeed beautiful."

"Right, right." Ishtar smiled again, and Elle in the underworld palace puffed up her cheeks slightly. Although she is the goddess of the underworld who is in charge of death, in terms of beauty, she doesn't think she will lose to Irene. Shtar.

"Actually, we can't judge, because we have only met Miss Ishtar, and we have never met the goddess of the underworld, so how should we choose." Fujimaru Rika said.

"Didn't I just say that the goddess of the underworld is a giant version of Garula, so I was the right choice."

Ishtar withdrew the hands that were on Fujimaru Rika and the others' shoulders, and then proudly stroked his hair, "In terms of beauty, the goddess of the underworld can never beat me."

The fiery Ellie gritted her silver teeth. She wanted to refute, but when she thought of what might happen to Ishtar next, she temporarily held back her anger.

Next, you are beautiful!

"Then choose..."

"Lixiang, you choose the goddess of the underworld." Qiye stuck his head out from behind the first gate of the underworld and said, Ishtar stared at him, "What's the matter with you, Qiye!"

"This, I think you should understand." Qiye looked at Ishtar with a "you know" expression.

"Ah?" Ishtar froze for a while, and then frowned, she said hesitantly, "You mean, as long as we tout Ereshkigal, she will happily let us pass through the gate of the underworld? "

"Yes, it is like that."

Perhaps Nanye thought so, but even so, Ellie was happy.

Even if it's false, Nanya is saying that she is more beautiful than Ishtar, so Ellie who is more satisfied than anyone else is very happy.

Since Qiye said that the goddess of the underworld is more beautiful than the goddess of Venus, the answer of Fujimaru Rika and Matthew is...

"The goddess of the underworld is even more beautiful."

"Humph." Ishtar snorted softly with his arms crossed.

If she could pass through the seven gates of the underworld more easily, Ishtar felt that she could ignore this unreliable evaluation!

Actually, Tatsuka Fujimaru, who had never seen the goddess of the underworld, planned to choose Ishtar.

But Qiye has let her choose the goddess of the underworld, so of course she will follow the words of the reliable sage and choose the goddess of the underworld that she has never met.

As Fujimaru Rika and Matthew made their own answers, the first gate to the underworld slowly vibrated, and a strange black light flowed out from the gate of the underworld made of obsidian, followed by the first gate The door thus opened.

Fujimaru Rika and Mash looked behind the opened door to the underworld. There was only the figure of Qiye, and there was no Garula spirit squatting behind them.

"Judging from the fact that no enemy appeared, is it because our answer is correct?" Matthew said with blinking eyes.

"That's not right! I'm the beauty goddess who is in charge of beauty and harvest. How can I be inferior to the goddess of the underworld." Ishtar complained dissatisfiedly, and then she stared at the seven nights behind the gate of the underworld. .

Under the eyes of Ishtar's powerful resentment, Qiye coughed, "Cough, the first gate of the underworld has been opened successfully, then come over, let's go to the second gate of the underworld. "

"Yeah." Fujimaru Tachika and Matthew stepped forward, and this time there was no gate to the underworld to resist their progress.

Ishtar also walked behind them, and she muttered dissatisfiedly, "Although the first door to the underworld has passed by like this, shouldn't the latter ones also be such a nasty problem? ."

"Although it's good to be able to pass through the gate of the underworld so easily, but I'm very unhappy... ah!"

what!
