My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 779: The Final Battle of the Age of Gods

Anyone living in Mesopotamia who looked up could see the pillar of fire covering the sky.

That was the last echo of the sun goddess.

When Anna woke up from the violent shaking, she found herself in Shuoyue's arms again. Even the fluttering black robe could not hide the fiery mushroom cloud spreading behind her.

So bright, so warm, it makes people think of someone's smile.

“Where is Quetzalcoatl?”

"She sacrificed herself." Shuoyue's voice was muffled, pressing her chest against his. "After breaking through the inherent barrier, she used all her strength to leave scars on Tiamat, buying us a chance to breathe."

"Is that so..." Anna's expression darkened noticeably. She curled up and couldn't help but move closer to the young man.

It's like searching for warmth.

In fact, there is not too much sadness. Anna knows that death is not the end. The heroes engraved on the Throne of Heroes will reappear as long as the conditions are met.

I just feel a little lonely.

Recalling the past alliance of the three goddesses, even though they disliked each other and laughed at each other's way of survival in their hearts, the only thing that cannot be denied is that they are the only three goddesses left in this singularity.

They are of the same kind.

But now, Gorgon has voluntarily gone to die, leaving behind only a seemingly real self. The goddess Ereshkigal still seems to be watching over the underworld, but her heart is no longer on the top of the alliance. And the most powerful goddess of the sun, Quetzalcoatl, has died first...

"Look at it calmly. Although Quetzal died, we broke the inherent barrier of the mother, didn't we?"

Shuoyue's voice was always so relaxed. He knew better than anyone that the breaking of Tiamat's inherent barrier did not mean relief, but would make the already tense war even more intense. Without the restraint of the inherent barrier, the Sea of ​​Chaos would spread until it covered Mesopotamia!
It's just a matter of awakening a sleeping dragon. What is there for a mere ant to be happy about?

The dragon's breath that the dragon unconsciously exhales when it is sleeping will certainly destroy the ant colony, but when the dragon wakes up, a random kick will also be able to destroy the ant civilization.
"It's better than being boiled like a frog in warm water. While the sacrifices now are not tragic enough and everyone still has courage and blood, we still have a chance to win."

Shuoyue flew up to the sky with Anna. He clenched his fist and punched forward. The storm blew away the clouds with residual fire, revealing a straight and wide view.

"Look." He pointed at the beast from above, "This is the last gift left by the goddess."

Anna looked down, and then her pupils suddenly shrank!
Burn marks!

Those are the traces left by contact with the scorching sun!
Tiamat, who had transformed into an ancient dragon, roared in pain. One of her two horns that reached up to the sky broke off at some point. The outermost layer of dragon scales melted under the bombardment of the treasure and turned into a strange liquid that flowed. The blood evaporated before it seeped out, leaving only large patches of tragic marks.

Tiamat's huge dragon body trembled in the black mud, splashing large pieces of liquid, trying to cover the scar. However, with a flash of fire, even the black mud of origin was burned away. Its majesty did not allow any filth to touch it. Tiamat writhed and struggled in pain, and when she raised her body, a cold light lit up Anna's eyes, allowing her to see something hidden under Tiamat's body.

"Shuo, Shuo Yue!"

"Ah, I saw it too." A brief look of shock flashed across Shuoyue's face. He thought for a while, nodded as if he had realized something, then turned around neatly and ran away holding Anna in his arms.

"As long as the stripes remain, Tiamat will not have the energy to mass-produce Lahmu. This is one of the few good news we have." Shuoyue seemed to be explaining to Anna, but also seemed to be talking to himself. "As for those things that bind Tiamat... Hehe, anyway, the reconnaissance mission is over. Let's go back and take a look at the damage in Uruk, and report everything we have seen to the king." After a pause, the young man actually showed an expectant smile: "Next, it will be a white-hot tug-of-war."

----

Back in Uruk, after a long siege, the Lahm group suddenly retreated in panic at a certain moment. When Shuoyue brought Anna into the palace, the messenger with a broken arm happened to report the appearance of the black mud tide to Gilgamesh on the throne.

"The black mud has engulfed the cities of Girsu and Uma, and is flowing toward Uruk, like a raging black flame. Uruk's current walls alone cannot hold it together!"

"We have only ..."

"Got it!" Gilgamesh stretched out his golden-armored hand, interrupting the messenger's voice. He stood up and spoke in a steady and excited tone:
"weigh anchor!"

"--oh!!!"

After a brief moment of daze, the soldiers suddenly gave a deafening cheer. Only they knew the meaning of this word. This word was created by them using nails and hammers, shedding countless sweat, and spending countless hours!

It is a feat that even heroes cannot achieve!

And now, the king of Uruk issued a declaration on their behalf:

"The Fangs of Nabistin, unfold!"

The sound of bells resounded throughout the plain, and buildings as sharp as teeth rose from the ground, one pair after another, interlaced with each other, making a deafening sound. And when the black mud from afar invaded and came into contact with it, it was like a giant beast that was blocked, and rolled back!

Although fragments were flying around and melting into the black mud, it was undeniable that the tide of black mud that was enough to kill people had been contained!
"Well, we have finally come to this." Gilgamesh looked at the smoke-filled battle line from afar and walked forward step by step. "For the past six months, I have been enduring in silence."

Too much effort, too much sacrifice.

Ever since Clairvoyance saw the future destruction, he has been fighting all the time, chasing hard, and seeking desperately, just to grasp the dawn of light when destruction comes.

He did not hesitate to transform himself into a magician (Caster), and used the divine blood irrigated with vitality to support the huge city. He even opened up the treasure house of the king, despite his reluctance, and went to the underworld three times in a row to work like crazy...

Because at this moment, I am not the only one standing in the wilderness ruins!

And now, he can finally hold his head high and proudly say, "I did it!"
"Mother of origin, womb of all beasts Tiamat! What is coming next is a mythical battle that even I cannot watch!"

Facing the last setting sun, Gilgamesh opened his arms and said, "In the end, will you devour the world, or will you prove that humans are capable of exploring this world? It's time to give the answer."

The king's proclamation echoed loudly in the palace.

"Come on, let's start the final battle in the Age of Gods world!!!"
