"South American winds, Mayan conquerors, Toltec priests! Will you still persist in your ways? Will you use your burning passion to incinerate the heart of Tescatlipoca, and that be all?"
The suppressed but not diminished aura of Jiu Quezal Koyater began to ease, and the momentum of the raging flames gradually subsided.
Quetzal Koyatl's obsidian sword and shield vanished, replaced by an overflowing aura of divine power.
5. "Oh dear, I was planning to sweep this annoying smell off the ground as well. Heh, I didn't expect you to give off such a good impression."
Quetzal Koyatl resumed his usual expression, lowering his eyes to the sides and speaking in the manner of a benevolent goddess.
"It's truly unexpected that someone could do something like this; it's so amazing it's almost frightening."
Sigh... I was definitely being unreasonable. Next time, let me have Mexican wrestling and express my apology with my body. Sorry, we couldn't get to know each other better..."
Quetzal Koyatl's mood suddenly turned somber, as if his thoughts were somewhat chaotic, and he ultimately covered his face and vanished into the wind.
"They are a tough opponent to deal with. Fortunately, the initial preparations were all for defense and combat."
After all, this is an important foundation, and before perfecting everything else in the city, the city walls and weapons should be improved.
Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the scenery in the city is, it will eventually turn into ruins when destruction and disaster strike.
Manju waved his hand, causing the resurrected sun to set, sink into the obsidian mirror, pass through the seven gates of the underworld, and be hidden within the underworld.
Manshu plans to dig a hole beneath the city that won't reach the depths of the underworld, creating an artificial underworld to hide the black sun.
While one may possess more than just Tescatlipoca, without prior preparation, only one sun can ultimately rise. Opportunities like the uniquely advantageous environment of the Age of Gods are rare, so it is essential to take advantage of them.
However, before Manshu could even rest, Quetzal Koyatl's departure foreshadowed something else.
Having confirmed Quetzal Koyatl's departure from the sidelines, Jingu rushed over as the black sun set.
The wisdom of the people has gathered hundreds and thousands of treasures. King Gu had already completed the tests he needed to do. He was well aware of the strength of the enemy he was facing, and all he had to do was to go all out from the beginning and not give the enemy any chance.
So Manshu, who was just about to return to the temple to rest and continue to improve the city, turned around in the air to meet the arriving Jingu.
Chapter 150 Impedance
Quetzalcoatl's Flaming Kick was a world-destroying meteor, and what Kingu brought now was a massive meteor shower, with countless clay artifacts crashing mercilessly onto the walls of Nippur.
Even taller than before, the towering walls, which had almost recreated the appearance of the Age of Gods, could not be completely defended against King Gu's attack.
The city's defensive barriers had been completely burned away, reduced to ashes in the flames of Quetzalcoatl's burning of the city, giving birth to death. 9
In this way, the city's only defense against Jin's attacks was the city walls themselves, without any additional fortifications.
This is why Manju turned around and rushed over without hesitation. Unlike Quetzal Koyatl, the King Gu wouldn't cause any casualties, only damage to buildings.
Kingu was utterly indifferent to killing; perhaps the only time he might hesitate was when he saw Gilgamesh. (8)
On the bombed city walls, the priests did not choose to retreat, but remained there.
When Quetzal Koyatl arrived above the city, they were rendered useless. They could only tremble as they watched the battle of the gods above, grateful for their divine protection; otherwise, they would never have survived such a spectacle.
Thus, they understood even more clearly that they must not be abandoned. If the goddess of the southern forest possessed such immense power, how much weaker could the goddess of beasts, who stood alongside her, be? 9
Although the people here have never seen the goddess of monsters, they have already guessed from the surging horde of monsters that she is Tiamat, and now they are even more certain.
Such an existence terrifies even the gods. Faced with Tiamat and her army of magical beasts, the gods could only gather in panic and indecision before the King of Gods' palace.
Without hesitation, the priest continued to attack using the weapons on the city wall, gathering magic to form meteors or gales to block some of the incoming magical artifacts.
It was only when the treasure that Kingu extracted from the earth's memories slammed into the city wall that the priests truly realized the power of the enemy who had attacked again.
Looking around, he couldn't count the number of flying magical artifacts, and any one of them, if it hit him, would be enough to kill him.
"That's...that person impersonating Enkidu!? So the evil gods who destroyed Sumer sensed the danger after all. The Forest Goddess was repelled, and the Beast Goddess immediately launched an attack."
Kingu is quite well-known here. To be more accurate, he should be called Enkidu. Even if you haven't seen him, you've probably heard that some people call themselves Enkidu and claim to look like him while destroying the city with the goddess of monsters.
"Are these failures desperately fighting back because they have nowhere else to turn?"
The artillery fire from the city walls had no effect on Jin Gu. Thanks to his excellent mobility and the relentless barrage of attacks, almost no attack could reach him.
Conversely, he was gradually approaching the walls of Nippur, where the relentless attacks had already left the entire city wall in ruins. (9) ◆;驷;●岜2ˇ≡缌∶∝㈢三錂伍蒐_索△〓:
“Jingu, your actions are now as despicable as your impromptu lies. It’s hard to say who is the loser.”
A lapis lazuli pickaxe was hurled from afar, and Manjus's indifferent voice, along with the magic, splashed across the walls of Nippur, which were almost half-collapsed.
"Matok of Enlil, ah, you are not to be underestimated. It seems I misjudged you at first. Perhaps you are the hope for this land."
But it doesn't matter; as long as you are offered as a sacrifice to Mother now, nothing will change.
Jingu recognized the weapon as being from his homeland and immediately used his speed to dodge it.
But to Jingu's surprise, after dodging to the left, he returned to his original position in the blink of an eye, and the flying Matok hit him directly, sending him flying.
“You have let your only chance slip through your fingers, King Gu. I have come to my city, and in this city have I restored the glory of my palace. How can you possibly defeat me on this land now?”
Jingu, who had just been sent flying, reappeared in the direction he had originally dodged, but the Martok embedded in his body proved that he had not dodged, but had indeed been smashed away.
"Did they distort my actions? Did they rearrange the timeline, or did they modify it outright?"
Jin Gu was filled with apprehension about this abnormal phenomenon. It was indeed quite bizarre. He had clearly gone to the left, but returned to the starting point. He had clearly been knocked away, but reappeared to the left where he had been hiding.
This must be the power of the god known as Tescatlipoca, just like when Manju escaped from the Blood Temple, making it difficult to discern any clues at first glance.
"Ha, are you asking me for advice, Jingu? Right here on the battlefield, facing your enemy?"
Manshu chuckled and reached forward to grab the Matok that was stuck in Jingu's body.
Kingu immediately bound Matok with golden chains, but Matok vanished without a trace before his eyes, reappearing in Manshu's hands in an instant.
"It is indeed a strange power, but it only shows that there is not much difference in our abilities. After the battle with Quetzal Koyatl, even with the support of this land, how much strength do you have left?"
The chance to think of you didn't slip through my fingers; the possibility of extinguishing hope reached its peak here. I wasn't the only one who came here; the gods of Nippur, possessed by them, will become history along with this city.
Kingu was not alarmed, for on the horizon behind him, dark spots formed a line.
Those dark dots immediately surged above the horizon, densely packed like a flood rushing in, covering the entire land.
That was the legion of the Goddess of Warcraft. Although most of the seven Warcraft were still in the process of gestation, the Goddess of Warcraft herself still possessed a considerable number of Warcraft.
However, for today's battle, Gorgon made some cautious choices, spawning a portion of the magical beasts ahead of time. These beasts then joined the already spawned ones, abandoning attacks on other cities and staying to launch an assault on Nippur together today.
Destroying Nippur in one fell swoop would allow all life in the city to fill the void left today, and also remove the last city blocking the absolute monster front.
"Even if you can stop me and stop Mother, can you also stop the magical beasts that Mother brought? Nippur City has only returned to the Age of Gods in the last two days, and the people in the city are just a bunch of failures. They have no chance of winning."
Humans are so pathetic; they should have accepted death long ago, yet they still struggle here pointlessly.
As Jingu spoke, he retreated, not intending to continue facing Manshu alone, but waiting for the arrival of the monster legion and the monster goddess Gorgon behind him.
In this way, the chances of winning are almost certain. Even the goddesses could not have done it if they had faced three opponents with god-level power in succession.
The towering figure of the Beast Goddess Gorgon appeared among the horde of monsters, her terrifying appearance instilling even more fear and making people believe that she was indeed the goddess Tiamat.
However, when the priests' gazes fell upon Manju, who stood above them, their fear and awe dissipated.
"The god called the man bearing the name and appearance of Enchidu 'Kingu,' who was the son of Tiamat, holding the tablet of destiny given to him by Tiamat, and was killed by Marduk."
The enemy is indeed Tiamat, who, after being killed by Marduk, has been resurrected and is about to destroy the world again.
Fortunately, the great Enlil returned to the land he favored, and we regained our Baal. Even the goddess Tiamat could not destroy this land under the protection of the majestic god Enlil!
The priests were full of confidence. They had witnessed the great power that Manju had exerted before their eyes, his immense strength, and how he had driven Quetzalcoatl and Kingu back.
Tiamat's infamy is indeed enough to inspire fear, making people unable to even muster the will to fight against her, but if she is under Enlil's protection, why should she be afraid?
The priests did not retreat from the crumbling city walls. When they saw the black dots surging in from afar, and the seemingly endless horde of monsters, they could only shout and make preparations.
"We may not be able to intervene in the struggle between gods, but at least we can defend the glory of the gods and prevent the lowly beast offspring of Tiamat from defiling this sacred city."
The omnipotent Enlil had already issued his decree, an irreplaceable and timeless command: no enemy could approach this city, no evil could exist here; let the eagles soar freely, and victory would forever hover above Nippur!
The priests below the mountain where the temple is located have already organized the people to move around. There are no permanent, off-duty soldiers in this era, and such things should not exist for a long time.
It is said that Sargon the Great, the founder of the Akkadian Empire, had a standing army of five thousand men, whom he fed daily. It was with this army that he defeated the Third Dynasty of Uruk when it was almost unifying all of Sumer, and brought the King of Uruk to the temple of Enlil, thus unifying Sumer and even the whole of Mesopotamia.
The Sumerian inscriptions record that Enlil made him invincible; his name was Sargon, and he led 5400 men who ate their daily meals before his eyes.
At this time, anyone with strength was willing to go to the city wall, and the conscription inside the city was carried out in the same way. After all, Nippur had been facing a life-or-death situation, and those who could be used as soldiers were all there.
Without hesitation, they retrieved their weapons from the storeroom and rushed to the city wall.
"This number... the Goddess of Warcraft didn't use her power to destroy us, so now she has no chance anymore."
We have obtained our daily sustenance and enjoyment, without having to exert any labor or even sing praises daily. What more can we offer as a sacrifice, as a form of dedication? Only the valor of a warrior guarding the gods.
“Jingu, since you and the Goddess of Demons are unable to get past me, do you think those demons can get past my arm? Do you think they can climb over the high wall of Nippur?”
There is no difference; you and the monsters will both face eternal judgment here and receive your deserved annihilation.
Talking for a little longer would at least allow for some rest, although in reality, the recovery would be minimal, as the monsters were surging in at an extremely fast pace.
Kingu had not yet reunited with Gorgon, but launched another attack when they were about the same distance apart. Gorgon then used her snake hair to fire long-range magic cannons to provide support.
"Further words are useless. If you expect those failures, which are nothing but pests, to succeed, then you are no different from them. Just stay here and become a sacrifice as a failure."
Kingu said disdainfully, as his treasures and chains, emerging from the soil, worked together to attack Manju once more.
Just as Gilgamesh created the golden dragon with the Chains of Heaven, Kingu assembled his Noble Phantasms with even more exquisite coordination, creating an even more powerful attack.
The dragon, bound by chains and wielding its Noble Phantasms, rampaged with terrifying power, while stray Noble Phantasms continued to fly out from the ground as options to disrupt its progress.
With the Holy Grail Nine as its core, King Bar has no need to worry about his magic power being insufficient, and Zero can act recklessly in this world without any scruples.
The Gorgon's Eye is not to be ignored either; it is clearly something far more powerful and unrelated to civilization.
"In that case, take the blow of this force, feel the power of this city and everything in it, and let you truly know the weight that my city possesses."
Manshu continued to swing the Martok, the pickaxe smashing towards Jingu with terrifying mass and Manshu's imposing manner.
This time, Kingu did not try to dodge. Having experienced the same situation as before, he chose to stand still and defend, controlling the four dragons formed by the Noble Phantasms to resist Manjusaka.
The light disintegrated once more, and the Noble Phantasms that had been interlocked in front of Manju suddenly lost their coordination, scattering and falling like rain. Only the fixed chains remained, but they could not stop Manju.
"As expected of the omnipotent Enlil, not just in terms of time, but truly almost completely. However, if you were Enlil, this would be reality, but since you are not, you cannot do things at will without any cost."
Only then did Jin Gu manage to leave, and this time he truly escaped, without being dragged back.
“How many more times can you do this? Five times? Ten times? After you’ve used them all up, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to stop my mother and me.” (9)
Jin Gu asked with a smile, feeling he had seized the opportunity.
"Come, come and struggle, O God who intends to rebel against the annihilation fate of the old humanity." lin
