The last servant is more important. Even Zhang Yu'anbo, who has not read many books, has heard of him. He is Leonidas I, the famous king of Sparta. The legendary 300 Spartans is his most famous battle, in which 300 men fought against an army of 100,000.
At this moment, she finally felt the charm of fate.
The feeling of meeting a celebrity was just like meeting Fu Hua. If she could summon her favorite historical hero, the romantic feeling would be exciting just to think about.

Chapter 12: Ishtar in Need of Worship
Time soon came to the next day.
Since Leonidas and the other two all had their own missions and were servants summoned by Gilgamesh, they were naturally ordered to go to the front lines of various battlefields to take charge. Although the terror of monsters was difficult for ordinary people to resist, for servants it was just a matter of killing speed.
Compared to the three servants, the tasks on Chaldea's side are much more boring. They are basically some odd jobs in the city, including helping farmers shear sheep, cleaning the riverside, and expelling pest birds that steal food.
The only thing that can be said to be related to combat is helping Leonidas train troops.
Although Amber said that she would help Chaldea when necessary, she did not say that she would join Chaldea, so Gilgamesh naturally had no plans for her.
This is a good thing for Amber. After all, she also needs to make up for the knowledge of Taixu Sword Qi and the application of Honkai.
So, she left Uruk alone while everyone was busy.
This was already the third day that she had been out of the city alone. Because she started to cultivate the cause directly after getting the result, Amber's progress was very rapid. After all, the things she didn't understand when she was cultivating in Yu Duchen, she could directly ask the immortal to control her body in reality to apply them.
Then she tried to recreate it herself after feeling that sensation.
With such a convenient shortcut, there is no reason for Amber not to use it.
Fu Hua actually had no objection to this somewhat opportunistic move.
Because Amber has a magical talent for Taixu sword energy that is beyond her expectations. She was obviously a little girl who didn't even know what true energy was not long ago, but in just a few days she mastered the use of true energy. She has already entered the realm of swordsmanship and even mastered many sword forms.
Amber didn't think this was her talent, but rather that she was able to get started quickly because she had Fu Hua's body.
After finishing another morning of training, Amber skillfully planned to find some magical beasts wandering around to try her hand, so she flew directly into the sky, slowly flying while observing the surroundings.
With Amber's flying speed and the wide view of the sky, she soon saw a group of monsters running towards a carriage loaded with a lot of supplies.
Seeing this, Amber planned to go over to help, but soon she felt another breath approaching quickly.
With her excellent five senses, she saw the rapidly approaching aura, which was Ishtar riding on the Sky Boat.
We meet here again?
Amber was a little surprised, so she didn't rush to leave and planned to see what Ishtar was going to do.
Ishtar, who came quickly, was not actually on patrol or anything, but was looking for something. However, many days of fruitless returns gradually made her irritable, and the dilemma of not being able to decorate her own temple without offerings exacerbated her irritability.
As she was flying aimlessly in the sky, she saw a monster planning to attack humans. She originally didn't intend to care, but then she thought that she could take the opportunity to feel the respect of humans and collect some offerings. She decided to help this weak and pitiful human out of kindness.
Well, it wasn't her desire to help humans, but her pity for humans that made her decide to protect this human who could provide her with pleasure.
After convincing herself, Ishtar lowered her flying altitude and then killed the monsters one by one when they were about to approach the carriage.
Looking at the residents who were literally blown to pieces by the aftermath, the goddess was planning to make a grand appearance to gain the worship of mankind, but after the dust settled, she noticed that what was in the carriage was not crops, but several boxes of gems.
"Not bad, human!" Ishtar unceremoniously claimed the gem as her own. In high spirits, she descended to the ground, giving the mortal the honor of a closer look. After praising her, she extended her hand toward the gem: "I'll accept these offerings. Next time, don't run around like an ant."
"Wait... please wait a moment! Lady Ishtar!"
Still a little dizzy, the man, unable to recover immediately, quickly got up from the ground and wanted to reach out to stop him. However, he knew the gap between himself and the gods, so he could only panic and say, "These are gems collected for the king! They are not offerings for you!"
"what?"
Hearing this, the goddess, who had been in a good mood, immediately frowned. "Are you mistaken? It was me who saved you! Putting aside the fact that Uruk hasn't been giving me any offerings lately, shouldn't you at least give something back to your savior?"
"But...but the king said these treasures are very important..." The man lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Ishtar.
"Important? Oh, that treasure trove built for the future, equivalent to the total assets of humanity when completed?" Ishtar had a vague idea, but she wasn't about to budge. "Well, instead of hoping for that glittering gold, it's better to place your bets on me. After all, I'm a goddess."
"I'm sorry... I can't do that..." The man's back bent even more, and he just hoped that this willful and destructive goddess would let him go.
"I say, compared to that king, isn't it true that I, the goddess, am more trustworthy? If that king were to suddenly die, I could still protect Uruk. Even monsters wouldn't be a problem then."
After saying this, Ishtar's expression suddenly turned ugly. "Come to think of it, why should I care about your opinion? Forget it, I'll take these things first. If I can give that guy a headache, my trip won't be in vain."
The man knew that he had no power to resist and didn't say anything else. It would be terrible if he lost his life along with the monster.
It’s not that he is afraid of death, but Uruk at this time can no longer accept any meaningless death. His life is not only his own, but also the king’s property.
"Please stay, Goddess Ishtar." At this time, Amber had to show up.
"Where did you come from?" Ishtar was stunned when she saw Amber suddenly appearing beside her.
He appeared beside me without any warning. If he had any ill intentions towards me, wouldn't I be attacked without any defense?
"It's just some unpresentable means." Amber said, who used Yu Duchen.
Yu Duchen's method of manipulating and playing with consciousness is indeed not worthy of being mentioned in public, but Amber did not mean that when she said this. She just wanted to say some cool lines. This kind of low-key and pretentious remarks should definitely not be missed.
"Are you going to stop me too?" Ishtar's expression became even uglier.
"Robbery of other people's property is not a good look after all. As a goddess, why do you have to use such means?" Amber asked.
She was indeed puzzled. She was already a goddess, so why did she need mortal gems? Wasn't this the same as her wife Toosaka Rin?
Although it was indeed against Rin's face.

Chapter 13 It's all the fault of the poor body
"What happens to me has nothing to do with you!"
Ishtar frowned, her tone turning cold. "Besides, your gaze always makes me feel uncomfortable, as if you're looking at someone else instead of me."
Is your intuition so sharp?
Amber felt embarrassed at being exposed, but she remained calm. "Excuse me, I've met so many people that I always find reflections of old friends in my new ones. This is probably one of the burdens of longevity for me."
"Changsheng? Come to think of it, you are also a Servant."
Faced with such a serious apology, Ishtar's expression improved a little, and then she became curious.
Although she was taken down by surprise before, and this time she was not too vigilant about her surroundings and was approached, she subconsciously knew that the woman in men's clothing in front of her was definitely not an ordinary person. If the other party was a famous legendary figure, it could also wash away her two gaffes.
Thinking of this, Ishtar continued, "Just consider this as an introduction. Where are you from?"
"Shenzhou." Amber said.
Shenzhou... In the memory of this body, it is a huge behemoth full of mysteries. As everyone knows, the more mysterious the magic, the stronger its power. Shenzhou magicians who do not connect with the outside world and will not even appear outside Shenzhou naturally have the impression of being difficult to provoke.
As a heroic spirit of China, the other party is obviously not a simple character.
But Ishtar still didn't hear the answer she wanted to hear: "Just saying a place name is too general. Are you shy?"
After saying this, she proudly puffed out her nonexistent chest, placed one hand on her chest, raised her forearm powerfully, and introduced herself with great momentum: "Goddess of Venus, also goddess of beauty, goddess of war, goddess of goddesses, Ishtar."
"Fusion Warrior, Red Kite Immortal, Fu Hua." In comparison, Amber's response was much more bland.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to learn from Fu Hua, who keeps silent but pretends to be an expert, although Fu Hua is indeed an expert.
If it was Fu Hua, she would definitely just say something like "he's just a warrior", but that was obviously not what Ishtar asked. If she answered like that, it would probably only make her more dissatisfied.
It's definitely not that she thinks it's cool to say Fu Hua's name! It's just that the other person has already said the name, so she said it too!
Although my Amber's emotional intelligence is not high, it is definitely much better than Mu Mu's!
Wooden Fu Hua who can hear Amber's inner voice:
Thinking of Amber's age and the few years of hospital life in which she had basically only grown older but not gained any experience, she finally didn't bother with the little bastard. Besides, it was just a title. Not to mention that no one here knew him, even if they did know him, it wouldn't matter if he let her use it if it made her happy.
"Fusion Warrior, Red Kite Immortal?" Ishtar searched the body's memory, but found that the body seemed to have no impression of these two terms, but still had an impression of what an immortal was.
Then, Ishtar smiled knowingly and said, "So you are also a god, Fu Hua."
"I can't be called a god. It's just a title bestowed by the emperor. People call me an immortal simply because I live a long time." Amber continued to play role-playing.
"Really? I'm not entirely sure, but you just said I'm a new friend, isn't that right?" Ishtar's interest faded quickly, and she immediately moved on to the next topic: "As the most noble and proud goddess, it's very troublesome for me when ordinary beings call me a friend. But the situation is different now. If you do me a favor, I'll acknowledge that we're friends."
"What's the deal?"
Ishtar smiled. "It's about Uruk. That Gilgamesh is getting more and more arrogant. Last time, he even insulted me, a goddess, so I plan to teach him a lesson."
At this point, Ishtar's smile turned into distress again: "But I'm busy with something important lately, so I don't have time to go to Uruk."
"What King Uruk did was for the continuation of humanity." Amber refused. "It is my mission to protect the people of Shenzhou. If human history disappears, Shenzhou will cease to exist."
"Protect the people of China? Protect humanity?"
Ishtar had a strange expression on her face, as if she was wondering why the gods wanted to protect humanity. If it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, it would be fine, but looking at Amber, it was clearly not the case. However, because the fusion with the body was so harmonious, she did not comment too much on it. Instead, she continued to persuade him, "You don't even have a single gem on you. It's been a long time since you've been worshipped, right? The King of Uruk has plenty of treasures. Taking a little money from him won't hinder him from saving humanity."
After fusing with the body, she could of course feel the changes in her personality, but as a willful goddess, she naturally believed that no matter how she changed, she was still herself.
And the most crucial point has not changed.
That is to hate Gilgamesh.
Although she had to admit that her temper was unexpectedly good due to her body, only when facing Gilgamesh could she feel that her body had the same malice as her own.
This also led her to put teaching Gilgamesh a lesson in second place in this manifestation.
Seeing that she was becoming more and more like Rin Tohsaka, Amber was silent for a while before speaking: "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."
"What? You clearly said we were friends or something." Ishtar said unhappily, and then walked towards the sky boat that was floating close to the ground and waiting for her.
She was too lazy to take the gems on the ground. After all, this "friend" was obviously on the side of Uruk. Besides... although she didn't want to admit it, she would probably be embarrassed if a fight broke out.
Seeing her like this, Amber felt a little embarrassed, but she really had nothing to compensate her... Wait?
"Wait a moment."
Suddenly remembering the two times she drew cards, and the miscellaneous items that she was too lazy to even look at, Amber flipped her hand, and a black stone with a cherry-colored glow inside appeared out of thin air in her palm.
The cherry-colored light in this stone even formed the shape of a five-pointed star, emitting light from the inside out. Under the illumination of the light, the minerals overflowing from the stone sparkled like white stars.
“What a beautiful gem!”
Ishtar liked gemstone minerals, so she naturally realized that this stone was no ordinary gemstone. It contained considerable magical power and could be said to be an extremely excellent gemstone magic material.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips again. Damn it, has the poverty of that human body been ingrained into his bones?
"There is a custom in Shenzhou called a meeting gift, but I don't have any presentable gift with me right now, so I'll use this as a temporary substitute." Amber breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Toosaka... no, Ishtar was very interested in the star stone in her hand.
It seems that he was coaxed.
Please collect and vote for me. Your support is also my motivation to update!
By the way, let me ask you guys if there is any problem with the current rhythm.
Chapter 14: Stupid Goddess?
"Is this for me?" Ishtar reluctantly withdrew her gaze from the Star Stone and looked at Amber again.
"Yes." Amber nodded and handed over the star stone. "This kind of stone is a necessary catalyst for the creation of many objects in our area. Although it has a certain value, it is not precious."
"Not precious...how precious is it?" The goddess of Venus swallowed.
"Probably everyone can easily come up with a few thousand."
"What!? Thousands of them!?"
Ishtar felt like her breath was about to stop, even though she didn't need to breathe.
But Amber's appearance of being rich and powerful did give her a heavy blow. Gems of this quality are not just for viewing. Gems basically only have ornamental value, so the more beautiful they are, the more valuable they are. This is just the logic of ordinary people.
The more transparent a gem is, the more beautiful it is, and therefore the more valuable it is. In the field of magic, this common sense is changed to "the more transparent a gem is, the more it can store and transmit magical power, and therefore the more valuable it is."
For the mystical side, gems are not just for viewing, but more importantly, they serve as catalysts for magic. However, only magicians who truly master gem magic can maximize the value of gems. If they are just for storing magic power, using gems as a carrier is too extravagant.
Therefore, although there is a concept that the more transparent the gem, the more valuable it is, basically no magician is obsessed with gems.
However...Ishtar and her body have no resistance to gems at all.
"As... as a greeting gift, the sincerity of only one is too disrespectful to the goddess...! And as a god, don't you have less background than 'everyone'?" After knowing that the quantity of this thing was not scarce, the greedy goddess' eyes lit up, and then revealed a proud attitude.
Amber naturally didn't plan to send only one. After all, her current name was the Red Kite Immortal. If she really only sent one, not to mention Ishtar, she would feel embarrassed.
But some things should be kept separate.
"After receiving these star stones, I hope that the goddess Ishtar will stop taking human treasures." Amber put forward the conditions.
"...Well...let me ask you, has the star stone in your hand been processed? Otherwise, it wouldn't have such a regular shape, right?"
Ishtar hesitated.
Amber really didn't know this.
