Chapter 281 Goddess of Venus, Ishtar!

Under the light of the candlelight, Gilgamesh saw a middle-aged woman with long brown hair and shawl, wearing the costume of a temple priest, exuding holiness and benevolence. He looked at himself with warm, concerned eyes.

The sincere eyes of the middle-aged woman made Gilgamesh feel the long-lost warmth.

At the same time, Gilgamesh, who originally thought that the world was boundless and lonely alone, suddenly found that he was not really alone, at least someone cared about him.

Even, under this warm and concerned gaze, Gilgamesh felt his nose sore, his eye sockets turned rosy unconsciously, and he suddenly had the urge to cry loudly.

If it was Gilgamesh in the past, he might not be able to bear it for a long time. Even if he didn't cry aloud, he couldn't hold back the tears that fell.

But today's Gilgamesh, after having that strange dream, his mind has been changed invisibly.

When Gilgamesh wanted to cry, there seemed to be a voice in his heart telling Gilgamesh, with your arrogance and dignity, you can't cry, you can't cry...

He took a deep breath and tried his best to restrain the impulse in his heart.

Then Gilgamesh wanted to say something.

At this moment, Gilgamesh seemed to realize something, looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him in disbelief, and asked, "What did you just speak in Xiong Guoyu!?"

"Could it be that you are also a traverser from the Bear Kingdom!?"

The middle-aged woman smiled slightly, but the expression on her face did not change at all.

Obviously, the middle-aged woman knew the true origin of Gilgamesh a long time ago, so she chose to speak to Gilgamesh in the language of the bear country.

Without beating around the bush, the middle-aged woman directly admitted, "I am indeed from the Xiong Kingdom in the future. To be more precise, I crossed over after you crossed over."

After hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Gilgamesh became very excited, and seemed to have a thousand words to say, but because of his ups and downs, he didn't know how to speak for a while.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman calmed down softly, "Son, calm down first, I will tell you everything."

As she spoke, the middle-aged woman paused for a while, as if organizing her words.

Then, under the gaze of Gilgamesh, the middle-aged woman said, "My name is Simona, and I am an ordinary middle school history teacher in Xiong Country."

"After you disappeared, your father found the senior officials of the Xiong Country and asked for help from the senior officials of the Xiong Country."

"After learning about you, the senior executives of the Xiong Kingdom immediately decided to use the power of the whole country to find you."

"That's why I later participated in the secret operation about deciphering the code of Hammurabi and finding the truth of the myth."

"I remember very clearly. On that day, I was teaching students as usual. It didn't take long for people from the military to find me and recruit me directly from the school."

"On the way, the military told me about your disappearance, and also about the Code of Hammurabi."

"Because I am very interested in the code of Hammurabi and in revealing the truth of the myth, I participated in this secret operation..."

Gilgamesh has been silently listening to Simona's narration, the expression on his face fluctuating from time to time.

Especially when he heard the information about his father, Gilgamesh's expression fluctuated most obviously.

Even through Simona's narration, Gilgamesh can feel his father's love for him, as well as the anxiety and anxiety in his father's heart.

When Simona was speaking, she didn't immediately say what she said in Hammurabi's code.

Instead, he chose to skip first and began to tell the story of his journey back to Babylon.

"Although I traveled after you, the time I traveled was one year earlier than yours..."

When Gilgamesh heard this sentence, he was stunned, with an incredulous expression on his face, obviously unable to understand why this happened.

Simona also knew what Gilgamesh was thinking, and said, "I don't understand why this happened."

"However, things like traveling through time and space cannot be explained by existing science. Since it has already happened, there is no need to pay too much attention."

Without stopping, Simone continued her story.

"The place where I came across is on the high platform of the Ishtar Temple in Babylon."

"At that time, the Ishtar Temple was holding an annual sacrificial event, so I appeared on the sacrificial platform out of thin air under the eyes of everyone."

"Because of this, the sacrificial activity that was going on was suddenly stopped, and the audience was silent. I could feel that everyone's eyes were on me."

"At that time, I hadn't figured out the current situation. I was suddenly watched by so many people, and my heart was full of tension, fear and anxiety."

"Fortunately, before I could speak, the previous priest of the temple suddenly knelt down in front of me and respectfully called me the envoy sent down to earth by the Venus goddess Ishtar."

"Because of the approval of the priests of the temple, coupled with my sudden miracle, the next moment, thousands of people knelt down in front of me, praised me, sang to me, and prayed to me."

"It wasn't until then, listening to the Sumerian language in my ears, and looking at the cultural customs around me, that I confirmed that I had traveled through, and traveled through thousands of years, and returned to the time that had been annihilated in the long river of history. Ancient Babylon among them."

"After that, I became the new priest of the temple as a matter of course, in charge of all matters of the Ishtar Temple."

"Because of the miracle created by my crossing, I was summoned by King Hammurabi of Babylon."

Speaking of this, Simona paused for a moment, her face fluctuated for the first time, and she continued, "I still can't forget the first words Hammurabi, king of Babylon, said to me after he saw me... .”

Gilgamesh had long been immersed in Simona's story, and now, after hearing Simona's words, he couldn't help being curious and nervous, guessing the first sentence that Babylonian King Hammurabi said.

Soon, Gilgamesh got the answer from Simona.

"Traveler from the future, please tell me the fate of Babylon in human history..."

When Gilgamesh heard the words, his expression was shocked, and his face showed an unbelievable expression. He said in surprise, "How is this possible? How could Hammurabi, king of Babylon, know that you are from the future?"

......

Chapter 282 Clouds move in this world, I am the King of Heroes! ?

"I don't know why Hammurabi, the king of Babylon, would know." Simona shook her head lightly.

As she spoke, Simona looked at Gilgamesh, whose expression was still shaking, and continued, "However, since the king of Babylon was able to discover Marduk's secret, there must be something special about daring to lead Babylon against Marduk."

"It's possible that the King of Babylon himself is an incomparably powerful extraordinary being."

When Gilgamesh heard the words, although he hadn't recovered yet, he subconsciously asked, "By the way, what was the result of the battle between the King of Babylon and Marduk? Was it a victory?"

Gilgamesh had thought about this question. Although he had some guesses in his mind, he didn't know the specific answer.

Simone responded, "As far as I know, the war hasn't started yet."

Hearing this answer, Gilgamesh had an unexpected expression on his face.

During today's one-day trip, Gilgamesh found that Babylon was very prosperous at this time, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, without any trace of the baptism of war.

Afterwards, Gilgamesh seemed to think of something, and asked curiously, "How do you know that I came across today and where to find me? Could it be that the king of Babylon told you?"

As he said that, Gilgamesh denied himself, "But it's not right. If the king of Babylon really knew about my arrival, then when I crossed to the top of the Tower of Babel in the first place, someone should have responded..."

"Or, the King of Babylon thinks that I have no value worthy of attention?"

Seeing Gilgamesh caught in her brain, Simona couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't think about it, if my guess is right, the King of Babylon probably didn't know you were coming."

Simona's words successfully attracted Gilgamesh's attention.

Seeing Gilgamesh's bewildered expression, Simona didn't give in, and said directly, "The reason why I was able to find you is because Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, guided me."

Gilgamesh was startled when he heard the words, with an unbelievable expression on his face, and then he seemed to think of something, and then showed a dazed expression.

Gilgamesh, who was familiar with Mesopotamian civilization, would naturally know the name of Ishtar.

The history of Ishtar can be traced back to the earliest Sumerian era.

In Gilgamesh, the oldest surviving heroic epic, it is also mentioned that Ishtar once wooed the legendary Su hero king Gilgamesh, but was rejected.

It can be said that in the era when the name of the god Ishtar was widely spread, Marduk was just an ordinary god and had not yet risen to the position of the head of the gods.

At that time, Ishtar's mythical status in Sumer was extremely noble.

Moreover, the divine name of Ishtar has not been annihilated with time.

In the Mesopotamia area in the future, Ishtar is still widely believed, and even has the highest status among the gods, and is called the queen of the universe.

In the Babylonian period, although Marduk became the head of the gods, Ishtar's influence still did not fall.

Simply put, Ishtar is the Babylonian goddess of nature and harvest, the goddess of love, fertility and war, and the symbol of Venus.

Therefore, Ishtar is also known as the goddess of Venus.

Gilgamesh traveled back to ancient Babylon because of the Code of Hammurabi.

On the code of Hammurabi, the glory that belongs to Babylon and to mankind is inscribed, and this glory confirms the fact that Marduk existed.

Since Marduk, the head of the gods who symbolizes Jupiter, really exists, it is not surprising that the goddess of war Ishtar, who symbolizes Venus, exists.

Thinking of this, Gilgamesh thought of another question, that is, why did Ishtar guide Simona to find herself?

Simona seemed to know what Gilgamesh was thinking, she looked at Gilgamesh with a complicated expression and said, "Actually, before I crossed over, I saw this sentence in the Code of Hammurabi..."

As she said that, amidst Gilgamesh's curious and puzzled expression, Simona said word by word, "The man who bears the glory of mankind, my hero King Gilgamesh, will be waiting for your arrival in Babylon..."

After hearing this sentence, Gilgamesh was stunned and his heart was shaken.

Afterwards, Gilgamesh realized something was wrong, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did the hero king of Uruk appear in Babylon?"

Upon hearing this, Simona looked at Gilgamesh with deep eyes, and said, "Gilgamesh, don't you realize it?"

Gilgamesh was stunned again when he heard the words, and then he seemed to think of something, his face showed disbelief, he looked at Simona questioningly, and his mouth was full of shock, "Could it be..."

Seeing this, Simona nodded affirmatively, and continued, "I didn't know the reason for my time travel."

"However, after taking over the position of priest, I was guided by Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, and I saw another self who lived in Uruk, and I also knew the real reason for my time travel."

"The other self I saw was the High Priest of Uruk, who served Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, and Gilgamesh, the hero king of Uruk."

"That's why, after I crossed over, I was guided and descended directly into the temple of Venus goddess Ishtar."

Speaking of which, Simona looked at Gilgamesh and continued, "The reason why you can travel through is because of another you, Gilgamesh, the hero king of Uruk!"

Gilgamesh looked very dazed, obviously unable to fully digest the huge information provided by Simona.

Seeing this, Simona knew that she needed to give Gilgamesh time to digest all this.

At the same time, Simona also knows that the current Gilgamesh is not the real hero-king Gilgamesh, and has not yet returned to himself.

Therefore, the way Simona treats Gilgamesh is not the way she treats Gilgamesh, the hero king she once served.

On the other side, in the real world.

Because of Lugalbanda's speculation, the high-level leaders of Xiongguo began to act one after another.

Lugalbanda speculates that the person who bears the glory of mankind is likely to be a hero recorded in human history.

However, there is no such hero in Xiong Kingdom today, at least on the bright side.

Therefore, on the one hand, the top executives of Xiongguo once again called on the hidden heroes to stand up on the TV news.

On the other hand, the senior executives of Xiongguo sent a message for help to the world, hoping to get help from the heroes, especially the eight heroes who felled the gods.

The world that had just returned to peace not long ago began to turbulent again because of Xiong Guo's request for help.

Under such a situation, Xiong Country's No. [-] executive received a message.

That is, in the territory of Xiongguo, a young man named Weiles contacted the authorities on his own initiative.

......

Chapter 283 The glory of mankind is carried on my body!

The senior executive of Xiongguo No. [-] looked at Weiles sitting in front of him with a complicated expression.

The executives of Xiongguo No. [-] never imagined that the first extraordinary person to appear in his country would have such a special identity.

That's right, the executives of Xiongguo No. [-] already know the origin and identity of Welles in this world, and know that Welles is the only son of Simona who disappeared not long ago.

And Welles also knew everything that happened to his mother.

Code of Hammurabi, Message from the King of Babylon, Reverse Anchor Theory, the disappearance of Gilgamesh...

After clarifying the ins and outs of the matter, Welles confirmed his previous conjecture.

His own mother was indeed involved in supernatural events related to cuneiform writing.

It's just that Welles didn't expect that this supernatural event would be related to mythology.

At the same time, Welles didn't expect that his mother would have an accident so quickly, without giving him time to prepare and react.

In the atmosphere of silence, Veles looked at the No. [-] executive of the Xiong Kingdom and said, "Take me to the laboratory where Hammurabi's code is located. I'm going to Babylon and bring back my mother!"

Upon hearing the words, the executives of Xiongguo No. [-] looked at Weiles' firm expression, fell silent for a moment, and then said, "It's fine to take you there, but I have to remind you of one thing."

"Although it is basically certain that the person who bears the glory of mankind can go to Babylon through the Code of Hammurabi."

"However, we don't know how to get back..."
