The Warrior of Love

But it's only on the ground.

In fact, because of Ishtar's divine power, at a certain height in the sky, the atmosphere seems to be solid!

Completely different from the "breeze" on the ground, the airflow in that alienated sky really has the killing power of a knife!

It's just that due to the limitation of divine power, this destructive force did not pour down.

There is a very tall building in the city, which is closest to the horizontal plane where the two are, and it is also the center of the city. In a sense, it is also the place where the air currents strangle each other most violently.

Thus, when they each completed a circle of flight and left Uruk, the sharp wind turned into invisible ripples, and the atmosphere on this horizontal plane began to rotate like a knife wheel.

"Buzz!"

Like a bottle cap being blown away, the top of the building shattered, and the ground earth and rocks spread out in all directions.

"King Gilgamesh! Are you alright?"

Holding the slab on her head to block the falling dust, Siduri asked Gilgamesh on the throne with concern.

"Don't panic, it's just a small problem."

Even so, Gilgamesh's expression was quite ugly, almost ashen.

He looked up at the ceiling which had disappeared without a trace, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he finally calmed down.

"It's nothing to worry about... The open-air design is also interesting. This way, you can look up at the sky and the stars. It's exactly what I want."

"Really?"

"Damn, that useless goddess!!"

Chapter 606: Special Attack on Tousaka

hum!hum!

Two consecutive flashes of light rushed across the sky, leaving ripples of light and shadow that spread out and turned the sky into a distorted watercolor painting.

Jiang Liu and Ishtar were fighting for the leading position. In order to maintain her almost invisible advantage, the goddess Venus had already raised her "magic power release" and "shining great crown" to the extreme. In other words, she was maximizing the manifestation of her divinity.

Although it was a bit shameless to do so, she used her "power" without hesitation.

Different from the meaning of power in "God Slayer", the "power" used by the gods in the Type-Moon world is strictly speaking a conceptual ability rather than a specific skill.

For example, the Warcraft Goddess obtained the privilege of giving birth to Warcraft and transforming life from the Mother Goddess of Creation, which was something she did not originally possess.

If she is the goddess of the underworld, then she will naturally have the privilege of ruling over the "dead" and the underworld.

If she is a goddess of the sun, she would naturally be associated with various concepts related to the sun.

Within the conceptual scope, their priority is almost absolute. They can change the laws of physics at will and even affect the basic elements that make up the world. This is different from the skill-type powers of the God-killing Demon Kings.

And what kind of goddess is Ishtar?

Her divinity is quite complex. Although she is the goddess of the earth, she possesses the attribute of "sky" and is called the "Mistress of the Sky" (the same as Athena).

In addition, there is the goddess Venus, the goddess of beauty and harvest, the goddess of war and victory...

In a way, she could be said to be the Athena of Mesopotamia.

She is in charge of the "sky" and can even surpass her father god "An (Anu)" in speed. Even now that she is possessed, she can still exert a speed that exceeds the limit of the rules.

And on this basis, she changed the rules!

It was as if the speed limit sign on the road had been removed. As she moved forward, the constraints of the rules of physics disappeared, and the goddess' speed began to increase counterintuitively, even surpassing Jiang Liu again!

"Then show your true abilities, Ma Anna!"

At the goddess's command, the magnificent bow, which was originally a "sky ship" rather than a weapon, began to transform in a rainbow-like light, and finally turned into a surfboard-like existence, which was stepped on by Ishtar.

"Sky, raise a huge wave! Dedicate this storm to the god Anu!"

call--

The divine aura spread in all directions, stirring up a wave of magical power. It did not directly attack Jiang Liu, but it completely disrupted the flow of the atmosphere and even distorted the space. For Jiang Liu, it was as if the journey was "lengthened".

"that's all?!"

There was a gleam of light in Jiang Liu's eyes. The thick and pure magic power had been ready to be released. At this moment, it suddenly spread out and then turned into a blue flame in an instant.

"Shenlan o Duankong!"

Using his hand instead of a sword, the flaming divine mist was gathered into a sharp blade that could cut through everything, cutting through the huge waves blocking the way ahead and extending infinitely towards the distant sky!

The boundless waves of magic power were like the Red Sea in mythology, split into two by the prophet's words.

Like a seagull flying through a storm, the river flow slipped into the gaping waves without any loss of speed.

"hateful!"

Ishtar no longer needed to look back, because she could already feel Jiang Liu was beside her!

The positions of the two people are already parallel, and the finish line is about to be reached. No matter what tricks the Mistress of Heaven wants to use, it will be difficult to increase the distance in a short time.

What should I do?

Again with strong light?

This thought flashed through Ishtar's mind, but she quickly denied it. She didn't think Jiang Liu was someone who would make the same mistake twice in a row.

In comparison, Jiang Liu was much calmer, although the situation was just as bad for him: it was also difficult for him to distance himself from Ishtar.

But for some reason, compared to the anxious look on the goddess' face, Jiang Liu always gives people a sense of calmness... or confidence, as if he has already foreseen his victory.

“I can see it now!”

The moment the temple came into view, the goddess Venus was invigorated and threw a gem with a wave of her right hand.

Zheng!

It was much stronger than the previous time. The light that burst out from the gem bleached the entire world in an instant, and even Jiang Liu's vision was taken away.

However, Jiang Liu had anticipated this and directly used his Observation Haki to open a perspective similar to that of the mind's eye, and his speed was not affected at all.

Seeing that her final struggle was also invalidated, Ishtar inevitably became disappointed, although she had guessed this possibility.

Fortunately, she was very close to the finish line. Given her current position, as long as she could maintain this hair-thin distance until the end, she would win the race.

However, things went against her will. Just after Ishtar's trick was shattered, Jiang Liu also hit her back, and even the method was extremely similar -

"oops!"

A loud shout attracted the attention of Ishtar, who was nearby, and her red eyes looked towards Jiang Liu.

Then, in those beautiful red eyes, colorful gems were reflected!

"Oops, I accidentally fell down!"

Jiang Liu said this exaggeratedly, and then stretched out his hand and took out another handful of colorful items from the dark space. He didn't know how many of them there were. Even if they were defective items, he did not hesitate to throw these priceless treasures like scrap copper and iron, and deliberately threw them to the ground in a direction different from the destination.

Come on, take on Tousaka's Noble Phantasm!

"Ah...ahhh!"

Without even thinking, as if possessed by a ghost, her body began to move. Without even a thought, Ishtar turned around and chased after the gems.

"Don't waste it!"

"Success!"

Jiang Liu felt happy.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Liu had rushed past the stone pillar in front of the temple and rushed into it in one breath.

Ishtar, on the other hand, was agile enough to catch the gems one by one before they hit the ground, and even gathered a small pile of them on the surfboard-shaped sky boat Maanna.

"Hehehe, the number of gems has increased again...ah!"

Ishtar raised her head belatedly, and the river over there had already rushed into the interior of the temple.

“Fu!!”

The pure white little beast squatted on the stone pillar, and when the river current passed by, it let out a childish but majestic little roar.

"The winner is decided!" the girl's voice rang out.

Mashu was standing at the door. When Jiang Liu rushed in, she could only feel a strong wind blowing, and could not see who it was.

But there is no need to distinguish...

Looking at the goddess Ishtar who was holding the jewel with a dazed look on her face, Mash smiled apologetically.

"Winner: Yuanshan Jiangliu!"

Chapter 607: The useless goddess

"Please, don't do such a drastic thing, don't take them away from me!"

In the majestic palace where the gods reside, the gorgeous black-haired goddess was lying on the floor in a very awkward posture, crying and hugging Jiang Liu's thighs tightly.

“I finally got all these gems, but they were taken away from me in less than ten minutes… Wow, don’t you think this is inhumane?

At least, at least let me enjoy their temperature and touch a little longer!

One day is enough! I want to try the feeling of sleeping in a pile of gems... I will treasure this feeling in my heart as a precious memory for the rest of my life!

Please, please fulfill my wish!"

"What would Siduri think if she saw her goddess like this?"

Jiang Liu looked down sadly at the miserable goddess who had no dignity at all. His opinion of her had already dropped to the lowest point.

Although he didn't default on his debt, this miserly behavior is really despicable... He even slept on the treasure. Where did you come from, Fafnir? !

Mashu, Ritsuka, and Fufu all shook their heads at the same time when looking at Ishtar like this. Even Fufu sighed in a very human way.

Although goddesses are rare, they are not uncommon for travelers in Chaldea.

No matter whether it is the idol goddess on the Invisible Island or the love-brained Moon Goddess, they may always have shortcomings of one kind or another, but at least they still have some reserve of a goddess, and will not be like Ishtar who has given up everything.

"It's hard for me to deal with you doing this, Goddess."

Jiang Liu pretended to be troubled, scratched his head and said, "We have already agreed in advance that each other's gems will be used as stakes, and this match has been notarized by the round table... I believe you have no objection to the result, right?"

"Well, it was you who was the one who did it. You actually used such a despicable method—"

"The one who is seduced has problems!"

Jiang Liu scolded him rudely: "You fell for such an obvious trap. Are you really a goddess? How about at least controlling your instincts?"

"I can't help it! When this body sees so many beautiful gems piled together, it's like someone who hasn't eaten for several days seeing a feast. I can't help it at all... wuwuwu!"

Ishtar grabbed her hair as if giving up. "I used to like gorgeous treasures, but I'm not obsessed with them to this extent, especially gems... No! The wavelength and compatibility of this body are all great, but this is the only thing you can't let me off!

Great Lord Anu, please do not let me be tempted!"

"Then you just work harder on yourself. Please let go of my legs. I'm leaving now."

Jiang Liu glanced at the small mountain of gold and gems and said, "Take 'my' things with you."

"No! You did it on purpose, didn't you? You definitely did it on purpose!"

Ishtar desperately shook Jiang Liu's thigh: "Tell me quickly that you did it on purpose! Why are you so harsh to me?"

"no way……"

Jiang Liu shook his head and said as if he was helpless.

"It's not that we can't discuss it—"

"Oh ho ho!"

The goddess's expression changed at an astonishing speed. She had looked so pitiful and servile just now, but now she stood up and laughed in an artificial manner.

"I knew it wouldn't be that simple!"

Because he was too excited, even his self-proclaimed name became weird.

"So you have an agenda, don't you? You went to great lengths to get close to me, and used so many gems to impress me... I see, you want to gain the favor of this goddess, right?"

"what?"

"That must be the case. You don't have to hide it. This kind of thought is very normal. After all, no man can remain calm after seeing this figure."

Ishtar lifted her beautiful black hair, and her red eyes were as beautiful and fiery as rubies.
