Ares, God of War

"Do you think Marduk is really strong? If you convert your strength during the period when you grew up to youth and confronted Enkidu into "one lucky force", then Marduk, the god of war, is only as powerful as More than a dozen dollars! Is that all your vision is?"

"A dozen or so?" Gilgamesh said in amazement, "Isn't that enough? When I grow up, even the great goddess Ishtar will not be my opponent, right?"

"You're wrong again." Ares shook his head and said, "That's why I want to exercise your insight. You only see the combat power of Ishtar itself. Indeed, if you fight her hand-to-hand when you become an adult, she will She can't beat you, but she has a lot of magical tools in her hand. Counting these things, her strength has already surpassed yours, reaching the level of two to two and a half lucky, plus a combat power of more than five lucky Gugalana, the bull of heaven, Ishtar's power should be around seven to seven and a half auspicious."

Due to historical distortions, the future self seen by Gilgamesh here is actually the one who did not defeat Humbaba with Enkidu, and obtained a series of magical costumes such as the King's Treasure, the Sword of Deviation, and the Lock of the Sky. Gilgamesh, of course, is far inferior to the prosperous Ishtar in a fight.

"I'm so weak?" Gilgamesh looked at his palm with disbelief: "Could it be that I can only become a combat unit of the Sumerian gods in my heyday?"

"That's it, so you have to have the corresponding awareness." Ares waved: "If you want to overthrow the gods, with your current strength and situation, you can't do it by yourself."

Chapter 39. Ares' Dragon Slaying Technique

Hearing Ares come back after such a circle, Gilgamesh also gradually tasted the taste in his words.

So he sat down honestly this time, looked at Ares, and asked him humbly: "Teacher, please enlighten me!"

"Well, listen carefully. If you want to deal with the gods, you must first know their purpose. If you want to command the people, you must also know their desires. Therefore, among your three basic abilities, combat effectiveness, leadership and insight, Insight is the highest priority."

Ares patiently explained to Gilgamesh:

"However, for insight, I can only introduce you to it. As for the accumulation of proficiency in this ability, it depends on you to practice it for many years."

"The so-called insight, in the final analysis, relies on three things, intelligence, experience, and reasoning logic. I believe that logical thinking is not lacking in you. In terms of intelligence, I will teach you how to collect information, and the magic and Technology, as for experience, this is what I said, what I want you to accumulate."

"Oh." Gilgamesh nodded repeatedly, and asked, "For example, what is the purpose of the gods?"

"Huh?" Ares saw his little thoughts, but he didn't say anything, but continued to Gilgamesh's question: "The purpose of the gods, if you want to talk about their own purpose, it must be all kinds of strange things. , but when it comes to the overall purpose of the group of gods 'Anuennaki', it must be to maintain the rule of the gods over this world. Speaking of this, Gilgamesh, think about it, if You are the gods, and you need to continue to maintain your rule over this world, what do you think you need to do?"

"Maintain the rule?" Gilgamesh was trained as the next-generation king of Uruk, and he often accepted Lugalbanda's precepts and deeds, so he quickly replied: "Eradicate threats and strengthen people's hearts."

"So what do you think is the threat to the gods?" Ares continued to ask.

"Other gods... No, if the gods are regarded as a whole, then all the gods will be included in this group, and the only threat to the gods is those non-god beings."

Gilgamesh pondered for a moment, then raised his head in a daze, and looked at Ares:

"A human?"

"Yes."

Ares nodded and continued to guide:

"Then we must eradicate the threat of 'humanity' and at the same time strengthen all intelligent life in the world, this human heart, what do you think the gods will do?"

Gilgamesh stared down at his palm:

"Send an object that can be controlled by them to control humans."

"Understood?" Ares smiled at Gilgamesh when he saw Gilgamesh's reaction.

Gilgamesh took a deep breath, and then spoke again, this time, his attitude became extremely sincere, and he asked, "Teacher, what should I do?"

"The enemy is strong and we are weak, this is a situation you will have to face in the next ten to twenty years, and I can tell you with certainty that there is no such thing as the weak defeating the strong."

Ares pointed to his temple, turned and said:

"So you have to use your brains and take advantage of another advantage that you can use-the enemy is bright and the enemy is dark. You have to accumulate strength in the dark, Gilgamesh. Only in this way can you reverse the situation and rewrite your own destiny .”

Gilgamesh thought for a while, wondering:

"However, I was destined to be exposed to the sun since I was born. The sun god Shamash is my guide, the goddess of creation Aluru is my spurr, and Ishtar will still be my pursuer in the future. Even my mother, Goddess Ningsun, is also a member of the gods, and it was not established from the very beginning."

"Here we need to use another skill." Ares said: "This is also a skill that the superiors basically know, acting, you have to learn to perform yourself in front of the gods, Jill, in this way, you Then you can accumulate your own strength behind your back, and I can also help you accumulate your strength behind your back to deal with the gods."

"Leadership, insight, combat effectiveness, and acting..."

Gilgamesh lowered his head and counted with his fingers, then looked at Ares and said:

"Teacher, I feel like I have a lot to learn..."

"That's a must. You are the one who wants to become the King of Heroes, so naturally you must have the size and ability to match it."

While talking, Ares stood up from the ground. He patted the blades of grass on his pants, and said:

"Okay, I just summarized it for you, and it can be regarded as letting you understand what you will face in the future. Next, it's time to get to the point... about the cultivation of combat power! This is something that must be persisted from the beginning to the end. !"

"I understand."

Gilgamesh also stood up from the ground when he heard the words. He looked at Ares seriously and asked:

"Teacher, what is the cultivation of combat power like?"

"I have a lot of systems here that can kill gods, but I'm not sure which one is suitable for you."

Ares squeezed his fist, and a devilish smile suddenly appeared on his face:

"In short, if you want to learn how to fight, you must be beaten first. Gilgamesh! Make up your mind!"

……

After that, Ares stayed in Uruk and began training for Gilgamesh. The training courses he developed for Gilgamesh were basically born out of the training courses for Spartan soldiers. But it's tougher than that.

After all, Gilgamesh is the most powerful type of demigod who inherits the blood and power of the gods. Putting aside his own disgust, his deity is so high that he can directly reach an A+ after becoming a disciple. Such a child must be the same as the city-state of Sparta. Those mortal children had a different starting point.

Moreover, the difficulties he faced and the height he had to achieve were completely different from those of the soldiers of the Spartan city-state.

In the morning, he had to wear a weight-bearing device and run [-] laps quickly around Uruk, and then he had to complete a series of basic movements under the guidance of Ares. In the next two hours, he had to work with Ares conducts one-on-one combat training.
