Type-Moon, joins the Lion King at the beginning

Chapter 153 [Survive]

In the dim room, there was only an oil lamp as a light source, emitting a faint orange glow.

There was a lot of lively conversation coming from the market outside the window, but this room was in complete silence as if isolated from the rest of the world.

A deep voice sounded slowly: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Before he finished speaking, a large hand placed on the oil lamp and turned the lamp hole to direct the flickering flame towards the young man opposite.

"Yeah, hahahaha, I must have confessed everything!"

Merlin, illuminated by the only light, had a wry smile on his face, his eyes constantly drifting towards the holy spear next to his cheek, as if if he moved again, the holy spear would touch his precious face.

Opposite Merlin, Li Ye held the holy spear in one hand and the oil lamp in the other, staring at Merlin with his gem-like eyes.

It seemed like this guy would slip away if we weren't paying attention.

An hour had passed since meeting Gilgamesh at the tower. After confirming that Liye would be active in Uruk as an attendant of the flower magician Merlin, and what Merlin might or might not do,

Gilgamesh drove them out.

When Siduri returned, Gilgamesh ruthlessly drove Merlin and Liye out of the tower and continued to work.

From building battle lines to citizens' daily lives, everything was handled by Gilgamesh.

Li Ye even suspected that he might die suddenly from such a workaholic look.

Gilgamesh was irrelevant. Li Ye seemed to know more about——

"You have at least three things to say to me, Merlin."

Li Ye held up three fingers and waved them gently in front of Merlin.

It was not convenient to ask in front of Gilgamesh, but now that it was time for him to be alone with Merlin, Li Ye had to ask clearly.

Seeing that Li Ye still refused to give up, Merlin tentatively said: "I, I shouldn't go to you?"

"continue."

"If only I had met with King Gilgamesh sooner."

Merlin rubbed his hands continuously: "Oh my, how can this kind of thing be okay——"

Seeing that Merlin refused to say anything even with the Holy Spear at his neck, Li Ye had no choice but to give up.

"What do you think of me, Merlin? Do you think of me as a Knight of the Round Table?"

Putting away the Holy Spear, Li Ye placed his hands on the table, crossing his fingers: "Or, what am I——"

Even if Gilgamesh didn't say it, Li Ye felt that he might not be a good person.

Who would be kicked out by others?

Could it be that someone got it wrong?

Hearing this, Merlin looked at Li Ye in surprise.

The next day,

Master Li got up early, walked out of the hotel, and stood on the street of Uruk at four in the morning.

He blended into the crowd like a local and was not found until eight o'clock when Siduri arrived and took him to the city gate.

A plain-looking carriage stopped at the city gate, and the oldest hero king Gilgamesh sat in the carriage very obediently.

When he noticed Siduri and Li Ye, he immediately said, "Too slow! You need to have a sense of time, Li Ye!"

"King Gilgamesh, you didn't tell me the time, or did I not hear you?"

Li Ye looked at the carriage in surprise and asked, "And we are taking this to Kusa?"

It’s not that Li Ye dislikes the slowness of the carriage, but does Gilgamesh have no other faster means of transportation?

Since Kusa has lost contact and even Gilgamesh is preparing to go there in person, they should be faster. Why are they taking such a slow ride in the carriage?

Li Ye expressed his incomprehension.

"Hmm? The means of transportation in this era is naturally a horse-drawn carriage. Do you have a better way?"

Gilgamesh folded his arms and said matter-of-factly, “Now that we are here, let’s get going. Time is precious.

Can you drive a carriage?"

"I can ride a horse, I'll try."

Li Ye did not refuse, and quickly drove the carriage in the direction indicated by Gilgamesh.

After Siduri watched Gilgamesh and Liye leave, she turned around and returned to Uruk.

The horse pulled the carriage at a rapid speed on the relatively flat road.

Since time was precious, Li Ye showed no mercy to the horse and made it run at full speed.

Gilgamesh sat in the carriage as steady as a rock, quietly looking at Li Ye's back.

"King Gilgamesh, what do you think of me?"

Even though he didn't turn around, Li Ye still felt the gaze and asked the question in his heart: "Or, why do you think I'm not a human?"

When he first met Gilgamesh yesterday, Gilgamesh described himself as a monster. Although Li Ye couldn't give an answer, he still cared about this.

If he was called a non-human because of the changes caused by the blood of the red dragon, Li Ye could accept it.

But Li Ye had a hunch that Gilgamesh was definitely not referring to the non-humans by referring to their blood. After all, if non-humans were judged by their bloodline, Gilgamesh's own divine blood accounted for two-thirds.

Not to mention other heroes in history who possess various inhuman bloodlines. It is too one-sided to call them inhuman monsters simply based on their bloodlines.

Hearing this, Gilgamesh raised his eyelids slightly and said calmly: "I was wrong. You are a being that can continue to move forward by calling yourself a human being.

But you also need to know yourself clearly. If you can’t even see yourself clearly, you can’t move towards the future.”

If you had not come into contact with Li Ye, no matter how much you saw, you would think that the name of the monster was extremely accurate.

But after just a few minutes of contact, Gilgamesh changed his mind.

Although it is impossible to confirm how Li Ye maintains a stable mental state, there is no doubt that Li Ye is a [human].

"Really--"

Li Ye, who was holding the reins, chuckled and said, "Then I have to keep working hard."

"Who are you doing this time?"

Gilgamesh turned his head and looked at the forest outside the carriage that was constantly retreating: "Although I didn't see your experience clearly, I also saw a piece of scales and horns.

As a Knight of the Round Table, you act for your comrades, but what reason do you have for acting in this land? Are you joining just because Merlin pulls you to join?"

"Don't talk about your love that makes your teeth fall out. I'm afraid I'll die of laughter here."

"It doesn't matter what else it is, it's just about surviving. Everything else can be a byproduct of surviving."

This time, Li Ye was able to answer positively.

If "love" appears in extreme circumstances because of the fear of death and the fear of leaving nothing behind, Li Ye can now calmly express his desire to live.

The Lion King has solved the last problem for him, and the rest depends on Li Ye himself.

【I want to survive】

Even though he embraced death three times, was rejected by the world and despised by others, Li Ye still loved life and held on to his only wish.

live.

“Hmph, your willpower is pretty good. I reluctantly approve of it.

If you want to survive, then show your brilliance on this land, Li Ye."

Gilgamesh curled the corners of his mouth, seeming to be satisfied with Li Ye's answer.

Time passed quickly during this chat.

Liye and Gilgamesh finally arrived at Kusa, the capital of the goddess Ishtar, located next to Mount Ebifu.

When Gilgamesh stepped out of the carriage, the soldier guarding the gate was stunned for a moment, then saluted respectfully and let him pass.

"Stop, I will go ahead. Go find the head witch Inanna and see what she is doing."

Gilgamesh frowned, jumped out of the carriage, and decisively pointed out the direction to Li Ye.

Chapter 154 Ereshkigal

"Ok?"

As soon as Li Ye got off the carriage, he saw Gilgamesh pointing at a tall building, but before Li Ye could ask the reason, Gilgamesh left in a hurry.

Only Li Ye was left to face the gazes of the citizens of Kusa.

Li Ye

Following the direction pointed by Gilgamesh, Li Ye walked naturally to a tall building.

'This is--'

Feeling the magical fluctuations emanating from the building, Li Ye raised his eyebrows.

Just by standing outside, Li Ye could feel the extremely strong magical fluctuations gathering in one place, and the magical fluctuations were emitted by multiple units.

It is normal for the people of the Age of Gods to have powerful magic circuits, but the fact that they appeared in this place gave Li Ye a feeling that he was in trouble.

"This is the residence of the head witch, please leave."

When Li Ye approached, the guards stationed around him stepped forward to drive Li Ye away.

Seeing this, Li Ye decisively grabbed the guard's neck and knocked him unconscious before anyone else could react.

Although he learned hand suggestion from Leonardo da Vinci, Li Ye was not very confident in using magic and his proficiency was not high.

Moreover, compared with magic, Li Ye prefers the human assassination learned from Shan Zhiong, which after simplification becomes the simple martial arts of human special attack.

It is easy to make people unconscious, thus achieving the effect of stealth.

After spending some time, Li Ye successfully sneaked into the residence of the head witch without being discovered by anyone.

Step on,

The crisp sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, and Li Ye easily found the head witch by following the magical fluctuations.

A scene that surprised Li Ye came into view——

'What are you doing?'

Li Ye, who was in a state of breath concealment, walked silently behind the head witch and others, and looked at the room quietly.

The simple style carries a touch of grandeur, giving Li Ye a feeling of sacrifice.

Based on Li Ye's many years of experience in archaeology in various places around the country -

It was indeed a sacrifice, and a sacrifice on a grand scale.

I remember some goddess was worshipped here?

Li Ye had no answer to this, he just watched the head witch and others pray quietly.

The mission regarding King Gilgamesh can be postponed. Li Ye mainly wants to see how the chief priestess of the Age of Gods communicates with the gods.

The prayer that had been repeated countless times was repeated again: "Lord of the fruits of the labor, mistress of the sky, goddess who roars like a lion!

Please save me from suffering, please grant me glory! "

Devout prayers, along with the glow of magic, were poured into the stone platform, and complex textures gradually lit up.

The glowing liquid slowly took shape on the stone platform.

At this time, Li Ye finally saw clearly what was on the stone platform.

She was a naked black-haired girl, her slender body brimming with youthful charm.

The slight rise and fall of the chest proved that life was still functioning.

“This guy——”

When he saw the appearance of the girl in front of him clearly, Li Ye was slightly stunned.

Unlike Li Ye at this time, his race is also different from the people on this land. He has a face that is exactly like that of a yellow person.
