Hey guys, I like Two-dimensional

In other words, the 'Tohsaka Rin' in front of her expressed her inner thoughts that only she could express. How could Chen Ling not trust her as a real person?

At least, that's what Ereshkigal thought.

However, she didn't know that Chen Ling was also lamenting Ereshkigal's performance at this time.

If he hadn't known long ago that Ereshkigal would probably do something like this, plus what he knew about Rin, he would basically not express what she thought was a weakness in her heart. If so, Chen Ling might really be fooled by her.

Of course, even without the above factors, looking at the other party's gorgeous black evening dress, the cool red cloak, and the other party's shiny blond hair that I had seen before, I guess normal people would not think that the other party was It’s Tohsaka Rin.

Well, Ereshkigal has actually done a very good job. If it were anyone else, she would have been fooled by her at this moment.However, even if it were someone else, if she didn't notice that she could change her clothes with just a click of a sneeze, then she wouldn't be able to fool anyone.

How should I put it? This is actually an expression of losing control at a critical moment, right?As expected of Tohsaka-san, the curse of her family (laughs) that got lost at the critical moment can even affect the goddess.

However, this goddess is more reliable than Ishtar in some aspects. She knows that too much is too little.This meeting had initially gained Chen Ling's trust. If she continued to question him while the iron was hot, it would probably arouse the vigilance of the man in front of her, so she decided to call it a day.

"Ah, that goddess seems to be waking up. I have to go back."

Chen Ling was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized that this goddess was being cautious, and this approach was indeed reasonable.

But, again, if she can't change her habit of changing clothes with just a click of a sneeze, then she won't be able to fool anyone.

"Then when can you come out?"

"I don't know. It depends on Ishtar's performance. After all, she is a goddess. If it weren't for today's special situation, I wouldn't be able to come out when she was asleep. By the way, you can try to let her go like you did today. She is shy, let her show her posture again today, then I should be able to come out."

It's okay to make her shy. You must have learned this from the memory of chatting with Kotori, and then used it directly, right?

Chen Ling nodded slightly on the surface, but couldn't help but complain silently in his heart.

Next, the goddess returned to the room belonging to Ishtar in the temple. After lying down to rest, she changed again into black hair and red eyes, and her clothes also changed back to the spiritual costume that looked like a swimsuit.

Today's events have passed like this for the time being, at least for Li Xiang and others. The next step is just to go shopping and get familiar with Uruk, and exchange feelings with new friends by the way. After sorting out, it is over.

However, for Chen Ling, he had other things to do today.

To find out Kiara from Sesshōin, apart from BB, Lilith and Lip, there is actually a particularly good candidate for him.

However, the strength of this candidate can be called a fifth scumbag, and it is estimated that the two twin goddesses are much stronger than him.Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of this person, and to hide him in the dark and use him as a weapon, Chen Ling never mentioned this person at the Chaldean meeting. In order to deceive the enemy, he must first The purpose of deceiving one's own people.

Well, this may sound a bit overly cautious, but whoever makes Sesshōin Kiara like the dark under the lamp is probably hiding beside them. This will expose the person who was directly killed by her on the day he arrived in Uruk. Do it secretly.

Although as long as Sesshōin Kiara takes action, it will definitely leave traces, and Chen Ling can also make arrangements in advance and wait for the opponent to take the initiative to catch him.But with Sesshōin Kiara's cunning and ability, it is very possible that Chen Ling may not be able to keep the other party even if he has laid a trap and prepared himself. Even if he succeeds in saving that person, he will probably face constant assassinations in the future. .

Therefore, this hammer transaction seems to be a big loss. Instead, hiding it in the dark is the best choice.

Thinking of this, Chen Ling took out a modern world-famous painting album from his storage space.

Due to the limitations of Chaldea's spirit transfer device, the number of people and magnitude transmitted from Chaldea each time are limited.However, it would be another matter if Chen Ling directly summoned the heroic spirit.

Don't underestimate the spiritual veins of the Age of Gods. If the heroic spirits were not summoned directly from this spiritual vein, it would probably affect the Great Barrier of Uruk. The wise kings probably used this spiritual vein to summon heroic spirits.

Ritsuka and the others are only using the power of spiritual veins to transport spirit children, so they will not be affected.At this moment, the heroic spirit that Chen Ling was about to summon was as strong as any of the five scum. Summoning a few more beings like him would probably not affect the spiritual veins.

Thinking of this, Chen Ling stopped wasting time. He had other things to do, so he quickly summoned the other person to come out and quickly did what he wanted to do.

- A few days later.

Chen Ling made a series of plans to go south to explore and even fight with them when necessary.

However, since exploration is the main purpose, they are not yet able to fight the main god-level Quetzalcoatl at this stage, both because of insufficient intelligence and because they are not ready yet.

What?Haven't Chen Ling and Swimsuit Ruler already informed everyone about the information about the three goddesses?

Regarding this question, Chen Ling said that we should not think inertly, especially when there are many hidden enemies in this singularity.What's more, because of Chen Ling's intervention, many things have changed. It is undoubtedly extremely stupid to use past intelligence to deal with a powerful enemy like Quetzalcoatl.

Past information has certain reference value. For example, Chen Ling and others now know the identity of the enemy's three goddesses, but similarly, that is only to know the identity of the enemy's three goddesses. Is the opponent's current strength equal to that of Chen Ling? As stated in the Swimsuit Ruler's information, is the opponent just himself and without subordinates like in other world lines (Quetzalcoatl has subordinates, but it's hard to say whether the opponent exists now).

All in all, it is necessary to detect intelligence and so on. It is one thing to be cautious, and it is also necessary to treat this unprecedented war seriously.

However, as the saying goes, plans can never keep up with changes, and unexpected things always happen suddenly. Even Chen Ling cannot avoid this.

"What did you say? Gil passed away???"

Even Chen Ling couldn't help but look extremely shocked when he heard the news.

No, I was about to fight to the death, so why did Your Majesty die first? ? ?

What is this? Although when I met Jill a few days ago, I felt that he was too tired and even his vigilance had dropped to a certain level. But even so, Chen Ling never expected that the wise king would come to Chaldea. It disappeared within a few days after arriving in Chaldea.

If we think about conspiracy, most Uruk people would probably suspect that Chaldean people did it.

There is no way, who made the wise king die sooner or later, but you Chaldea died in the past few days after coming to Uruk.

Fortunately, the ministers all knew Chen Ling, the national advisor, and having his endorsement would not cause the Uruk people to regard Chaldea as their enemy.

Of course, the existence of another hero king can also stabilize the situation. After all, the wise king is gone, so they still have another hero king, right?

Although I don't know why there are two King Gilgamesh, it's enough that this one is indeed King Gilgamesh. The other ministers don't want to care too much, and they can't care too much.

However, there is still some suspicion. In their opinion, it is possible that their national advisor was deceived by this group of Chaldeans.

"Jill, you stay and deal with political affairs for now."

The King of Heroes snorted and tentatively agreed.

He hasn't gone to the front line these days because he thinks Chen Ling's plan also has arrangements for him.

In fact, this is indeed the case, but now no matter what the arrangement is, it can't be implemented. Whoever let the wise king die of overwork directly can only let this one take over.

"Warn the ministers who know about this not to spread the news about the passing of the wise king. Everything will continue as usual."

Siduli nodded and said she would deal with the matter immediately.

Siduli was obviously shocked to a certain extent by the death of the wise king.

"Although Wang is extremely energetic and has been handling domestic affairs perfectly so far, he is not a superman. I have always said that Wang should be guaranteed three hours of sleep every day. Why don't you listen to me?"

No, no, three hours is too little... Everyone present couldn't help but complain in their hearts. They only knew that Xian Wang was very tired and overworked, but they never expected that he only slept for three hours a day. Is that guy from Nisei coming over again?

At this moment, everyone was deeply aware of what kind of life Gilgamesh had lived.

Even the King of Heroes himself couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and looked at his chief priest in surprise.

He never expected that the Siduli in his memory would be so cruel.

And the most important thing is that he will then personally 'enjoy' this overtime working mode, which is a bit scary just thinking about it.

"Chen Ling, I want to rush to the front line as soon as possible. You'd better find that guy back as soon as possible."

The King of Heroes looked serious on the surface, but in his heart he was praying that Chen Ling, Li Xiang and others could quickly handle this matter.Although he was a Heroic Spirit, he didn't want to enter the overtime mode that would have killed him in his lifetime.

"King, can I still get it back?"

Listening to what the King of Heroes said, Siduli suddenly became excited.

She originally thought that she could only rely on the King of Heroes to handle political affairs in the future, but the other party's attitude was obviously that of the King of Heroes.You know, Gilgamesh during the Hero King period was a tyrant. Even with the assistance of 2 Enkidu and Chen Ling, the name of tyrant still exists.

What's more, most of the political affairs of the King of Heroes were handled by Chen Ling and Enkidu.

Therefore, Siduri expressed doubts about the Hero King's ability to handle political affairs, even though they were both King Gilgamesh.

But now it's better, the wise king can actually be found again, which is undoubtedly an exciting thing.

"What is the specific situation? Although he was so tired that his vigilance dropped a lot a few days ago, he wouldn't suddenly regard the events of the past few days as a sudden death, right?"

Chen Ling had to first confirm the cause of Xian Wang's death. Although he could probably guess that it was a good deed done by a goddess from the underworld, what if it happened?

"The king passed away early yesterday morning. Originally, I was supposed to stay and work with the king, but I left for two hours to handle the work at the shrine maiden's office... When I came back, what I saw was that the throne was already there. The dying king.”

"So, was the cause of death really a sudden death from excessive fatigue? What a pity. If I were still here, I could at least use hypnosis to keep him hanging."

Mei Lin said this very heartlessly.

After all, what I mentioned is that this guy was actually in Uruk yesterday, but he went to drink somewhere (no longer at his residence). When everyone found her, they found her slumped in the bar and drunk.By that time, the wise king had passed away for some time.

Therefore, when this guy said this at this time, he seemed very heartless and quite disdainful.

However, Siduli was not angry at Mei Lin's remarks, because the situation was somewhat different from what Mei Lin thought.

"No. It seems that Wang dozed off while looking at the clay slate, and was hit directly on the head by the sharp edge of the heavy slate. The cause of death was a brain impact."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, and then Meilin couldn't help laughing.

"Hahahahahahaha~~~! Then there is nothing we can do~! Even if I am still here, there is nothing you can do to save him. He actually killed himself by dozing off. Hahahahahahaha~~~!"

Everyone looked at the dream demon who laughed heartlessly with extremely contemptuous and cold eyes. Some people even held the sword at their waists and prepared to chop this guy who was so dismissive at this time.

Especially the King of Heroes, who was glaring at Mei Lin with a look full of murderous intent, as if he was thinking about where to start the operation later.

"I don't think Gil will die because of such a thing. If he just accidentally knocks over a sharp corner and dies, then Gilgamesh will be somewhat well-deserved."

Chen Ling didn't quite think that Gil would die suddenly on the spot because of such a thing. Although the current wise king was not a heroic spirit, if he accidentally hit his head on a sharp corner and died, then the [Epic of Gilgamesh] would probably be lost. It exists - no one would record a king who accidentally hit his head and died on the spot. That would be too embarrassing, right?

"I think it was probably when he accidentally hit his head that he temporarily fainted due to the fatigue he had experienced in the recent period. But at this time, he should have suffered something that led to his own death. .”

Chen Ling made this conclusion and then continued to ask.

"Siduli, apart from Jill's death, has anything unusual happened during this time?"

Siduli pondered for a while after hearing this, and then said with a sigh.

"It's true. This happened yesterday, before King Gilgamesh passed away. I have received many memorials saying that more and more people have been unable to wake up from their sleep in recent days. From the physical strength From frail old people to injured soldiers bedridden, and recently even to young adults who are free from illness and disaster. The death of the king is also judged to be of the same type, and it is an evil event that cannot be underestimated."

"Died in one's sleep...that is directly attacking the soul and luring the living to the underworld when the spirit is unprepared. And this method...is the same as what happened in Kuta City, right?"

Meilin's expression became a little more serious and she told a piece of crucial information.

"Yes. In fact, there have been cases of weak people dying before that, but it has worsened a lot in recent days, and Uruk has reached an existential crisis. If this continues, it will not wait until the Warcraft in the North Break through the front and Uruk will become a dead city in another month.”

Siduli was very worried. In fact, even if the King of Heroes were to act in political affairs, it would be difficult to change this bad situation.

"That being the case, then the goddess of the underworld should be the culprit for this series of events."

Finally, Chen Ling came to such a conclusion.

Chapter 79: What does the debt owed by the wise king have to do with my heroic king?

For Chen Ling to make such a judgment, those who understand Sumerian mythology will naturally understand what Chen Ling means, but some people present do not understand. It is better to say that most people do not understand Sumerian mythology. It is normal.

"You know that Sumer has a culture of "city gods", right? The willful Ishtar is the city god of Uruk, so although she is wild and perverse, she still has some respect for Uruk. To show mercy, he did not directly bomb his own city (but did try to blackmail the people of Uruk). In contrast, the city of Kuta also has its own urban god, who was given the responsibility of being the 'Lord of the Underworld' of gods.”

Lord of the underworld?Isn't that the goddess of the underworld?

Hearing this, I think of one of the three goddesses, and then think of what Siduli just said about more and more people passing away in their sleep, as if their souls are being directly attacked, and they will be born when the spirit is unprepared. The practice of luring a person into the underworld.

With so many clues pointing to the goddess, it's no wonder that Chen Ling would directly make such a judgment.

It must be mentioned that the laws in the Age of Gods are somewhat different from those in modern times. In the real Age of Gods world, just like in mythology, there is a world of gods where gods live and an underworld where the dead live.

Although there are some deviations in legends from all over the world, generally speaking, they are worlds with three directions: upper, middle and lower.The top is the heaven where the gods live, the middle is the earth where humans live, and the bottom is where the dead will go. This is generally how humans around the world understand the world.

So in this world, the underworld is not an abstract description, but a real place.Death is not the end, but a process in which the soul of the deceased continues to live in the underworld.So as long as the soul of the deceased can be brought back from the underworld, it can be resurrected.

In fact, as the chief priest, Siduli naturally understands this, but she also knows that this is probably the work of the goddess of the underworld, who wants to recover the soul of King Gilgamesh from the goddess of the underworld. It seemed impossible to her.

You know, the goddess of the underworld is strengthened by the blessings of the underworld when she stays in the underworld, which further enhances her already extremely powerful strength.It is said that Ishtar once brought many artifacts to provoke this person, but he was killed in an explosion. If the supreme god 'An' did not come to the scene personally to negotiate for Ishtar's soul, perhaps Ishtar would have estimated that It was hung up at that time.This shows how powerful the goddess of the underworld is in the underworld.

However, after Chen Ling and the Hero King said that they could bring it back, Siduli suddenly remembered the strength of Chen Ling and the Hero King. Coupled with the help of Chaldea and the strength of the heroic spirits summoned by the king, they might really be able to Get the soul of your own king back.

As for whether they were 100% sure, Siduli didn't know. She could only pray that Chen Ling and the others would be so sure.

At this time, Chen Ling and others began to discuss the next action arrangements. The plan to go south to explore first does not need to be scrapped, but it needs to be modified one step at a time.

Of course, recovering the soul of the wise king is also something that must be done, and this matter must be carefully arranged.

But just as Chen Ling began to discuss, the anxious voices of soldiers came from the palace gate.

"Report! A report came from the observation station! A high-speed object is approaching from the sky! - It's Lord Ishtar! The goddess Ishtar is here again!!"

This 'again' is used in a very essential way.

Chen Ling and his party instinctively raised their heads and looked at the sky. The ceiling of the palace was shattered by a golden flash with a loud bang, and the golden demon appeared again.

Compared with the quiet movement when he returned to his temple before, Ishtar's movement this time was obviously much louder.

By the way, the goddess broke through the ceiling of the palace, causing the main hall of the palace to be filled with raised dust, causing many people to cough.

To be fair, although Chen Ling just said that Ishtar is already kind to Uruk, to be honest, many people except Chen Ling feel that they have not seen how this woman is kind. .Or does flying through the sky from time to time to scare people count as an air defense drill for the people?is that so?

Siduli coughed for a while, then quickly lowered her head, dusted herself off, and then quickly lowered her head towards the willful goddess in the center of the room, but the words she spoke were as if the maid was preaching to the eldest lady.

"Ahem~~~ Lord Ishtar, if you can, please be quiet next time and come in through the main entrance. The people of Uruk will come in to welcome you. And if you keep crashing buildings, it will be a waste of time and labor. It’s not cost-effective in all aspects to repair it.”

"You are still as serious as before, Yesiduli... It's just you who are working hard, right? I don't need to fix it myself, I don't care!"

When everyone heard this, their faces dropped, and they felt that this girl was really willful.
