I'm tied to Athena.

"I have the same aura as the Gorgon, probably because I was mistaken for the Gorgon by the times."

Li Yun explained the reason for his existence and his identity in a far-fetched way, "In Roman mythology, the Gorgon was born because of Athena. Athena was summoned by this era, and part of her power was pulled away from her body by the Gorgon, and this part of her power became me in this chaotic era."

"Is this explanation acceptable to you?"

Originally, Kingu, who obtained the power of the Holy Grail, planned to summon only the Gorgon goddess, but because of the chaos of the singularity and the magic of the Age of Gods, he accidentally summoned three goddesses, so Kingu came up with the idea of ​​forming an alliance of three goddesses.

However, judging from the current situation, Jingu should not be clear about how many goddesses he has summoned, otherwise he would not have mistaken Ishtar as one he summoned.

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that Kingu knew that he had summoned the Three Pillars, but because of Elle's special characteristics, he did not notice it, so he summoned Ishtar himself.

But even so, Li Yun has enough excuses to explain.

"Really?" Ishtar approached Li Yun with a skeptical look, "Indeed, although you have the aura of a Gorgon, if you feel it carefully, you are completely different from the monster born out of revenge."

The Gorgons of this era were born out of revenge. The original myth of the Gorgons and Tima's resentment for being betrayed made the Warcraft Goddess look more like a monster than a goddess.

The aura that Li Yun possesses is extremely pure. Even though their origins are almost the same, careful observation will reveal that Li Yun and the Warcraft Goddess are not the same being at all.

"So, I came to invite you because of the plan of my main god, Goddess Ishtar."

"Well... I understand the situation. There is really nothing to doubt." His bare feet stepped on the ground again and again. "Although I know it, you also know how powerful the goddess in the jungle is. It's just this little gem..."

The scarlet eyes began to glance at the gems that were slowly piling up.

"I still have three warehouses of gems here." Li Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Ishtar no longer cared about his identity, so the negotiations could start again. "These gems are deposits, and the crystal lamp can also be given to you as a gift."

"Including the welcome gift for you, there are ten warehouses of gems in total. And the gems in each warehouse are the likes of which you have never seen before."

As if he felt that the words were a little pale, Li Yun touched his chin and finally added: "If you really want to say it, burying your temple should be no problem."

“Can you bury my temple?!” Ishtar was completely unable to stand. She swallowed hard, “Use gems to bury my temple... How many gems would it take? But, but... The price of the goddess is not that low!”

"Add two more warehouses!"

"Can you raise the price even more?!" She swallowed her saliva again. She looked at the increasing number of gems tremblingly, and seemed to want to insist, "But... this, this superficial condition..."

That being said, it was obvious that Ishtar was already tempted. Anna watched Li Yun deal with the goddess from beginning to end, and finally lowered her head, "This goddess is really easy to deal with."

"Then there's nothing we can do, Anna, let's retreat." Li Yun put the gem back into his shadow with a look of regret, "Actually, I really want to know what the temple looks like after it is filled with gems."

"Yeah." Anna nodded quietly, and turned and left without even saying anything extra.

"Wait, wait! Please don't do something that will destroy the world! I will die from excessive sadness!" The goddess flew in front of Li Yun without a second of hesitation. She put her hands on Li Yun's chest, "Wait! Give me a little more time!"

"Please make a decision as soon as possible. We are a bit pressed for time here."

"I know!" Ishtar blushed and scratched her head in distress, looking very conflicted.

"......." One second passed, two seconds passed, three seconds passed, and soon, seven seconds passed. Ishtar suddenly changed her previous entanglement and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. "Okay, since you all sincerely offer me the financial report, I will accompany you on the trip."

"But let me make it clear first. I will only help you this time. I don't intend to completely get rid of that guy in the jungle. And I am just a bodyguard, bah, I am just an escort to ensure your safety. After this incident, you will have nothing to do with me!"

Ishtar was well aware of Quetzal's strength. He was the supreme god who could crush the Goddess of Warcraft to the ground if he got serious. If it weren't for the Gorgon's immortality and Kingo's help, Quetzal might have been able to make Tima come earlier by himself.

Without the Bull of Heaven, Ishtar, who even descended in the body of a human girl, was no match for Quetzal, so it was understandable that she didn't want to be targeted.

"Of course, please rest assured about this." Li Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting Ishtar's nod. He stretched out his hand to Ishtar and said, "Well, let's get to know each other again, Goddess Ishtar. My name is Li Yun, the half of Goddess Athena. I hope you can give me your guidance in the next few days."

"I don't hate such polite people. Since you are so polite, I will reluctantly let you touch the goddess' body."

The goddess's hand and the boy's hand clasped together - Ishtar, the mistress of heaven, joined the team

Chapter 171 Goddess Watching the Night

"Oh, we can finally go down the mountain." Outside the temple, the Mistress of Heaven, who had agreed to be Li Yun's bodyguard, sat on the Sky Boat and swung her long legs. The majesty and momentum of the god disappeared, and now there was only a girl who liked to play pranks.

This singularity Ishtar is not the pure Ishtar. Because the scale of gods and humans is so different, it is almost impossible for humans to summon gods, so the old witch of Uruk came up with a very roundabout way.

That is to find a girl who has a good compatibility with Ishtar in every era, then summon that girl from her era, and finally let that girl become the embodiment of Ishtar.

But this does not mean that the girl just disappeared. If she wants to become Ishtar's possession, she must have a personality almost identical to Ishtar's. And Ishtar's idea is very simple - I am me.

The goddess and the girl who had this idea merged and gave birth to the current Ishtar.

That’s right, to put it simply, two personalities merged into a completely new personality.

Precisely because of the fusion of personalities, Ishtar would not do what the myth says, where she would kill someone over a disagreement.

"Why do I feel like you don't have any attachment to this mountain?"

"Of course. I came here to build a temple because I had nowhere else to go, but as you can see, there is nothing here. The old witch who summoned me died not long after I came out, and the people of Uruk were ordered by that bastard Jinpika not to come to me, resulting in no believers and witches coming here."

"And you saw it when you came up here, right? There are no other cute little animals on this mountain except for poisonous snakes, scorpions and insects."

Ishtar pouted like a girl and complained, "I chose this place, but why did I choose this place?"

The moment Ishtar finished speaking, Mount Ebifu began to tremble, and an angry aura emanated from the mountain. Then—

"Ishtar!!!!"

Such an angry voice was heard.

"Something is coming." Anna stood beside Li Yun, and her purple pupils saw through the robe that the huge stone men surrounded them from all directions.

"Are these...the mountain spirits of Mount Aibi?" Li Yun blinked, then looked at the goddess Ishtar who looked excited.

"I didn't expect that the service attitude of Aibifushan is so good now. Knowing that I have complaints, they took the initiative to come to my door to let me vent my anger."

"......" After a long silence, Li Yun gave up the idea of ​​whether this goddess had the number of Hercules, "If possible, please be gentle, this mountain can't stand your wanton playfulness."

"The most important thing is to prevent us from falling directly off the mountain."

"Don't worry, I won't let you fall into pieces."

After saying this, the goddess flew directly into the sky and immediately drew the bow and arrow in her hand.

Golden arrows fell from the sky like raindrops. Except for her temple and the place where Li Yun and Anna were standing, every other place was covered by this terrifying golden torrent.

The vengeful spirits gathered from Mount Abif were immediately dispersed by the artillery fire attack. Then, Li Yun and the others witnessed the cold and ruthless side of Ishtar.

After blasting away the mountain spirit of Mount Ebif, Ishtar stabbed the long arrow in her hand into the body of Mount Ebif. Then, something like a white soul appeared from the place where the arrow pierced.

It was a white soul in the shape of a mountain.

The goddess grabbed Aifshan's neck without any hesitation and kicked it, and also used all the fighting skills she had learned on it.

Although it is not clear why Mount Ebi has a neck, the short answer is that Mount Ebi was once again severely punished by the goddess.

"Huh~~ It feels so good, so good." After teaching Abifshan a lesson, Ishtar clapped her hands in satisfaction.

As they were descending the mountain, the sacred peak that was said to be feared even by the god An was still trembling... I hope this sacred peak can get rid of its fear of Ishtar.

Because of the incident on Mount Aibi, it was already night when Li Yun and the others went down the mountain.

"There's no other way. Let's just rest here for a night." Li Yun skillfully set up the tent and lit a bonfire. "Would you like something to eat?"

From morning till now, Li Yun and Anna have not eaten anything other than something to fill their stomachs in the early morning.

"Oh... Have you prepared so many things? It seems you are used to traveling." Ishtar watched Li Yun take out things one by one. It felt more like camping than traveling.

"Well....because of some things I experienced in the past."

The three of them solved the dinner problem while chatting and laughing.

"Okay, you guys go and rest, I'll keep watch." After dinner, it was getting late. As the only male in the team, Li Yun took the initiative to take on the task of keeping watch.

Anna pulled at the corner of Li Yun's clothes and raised her head slightly, "No, you haven't slept all night."

"It doesn't matter. I'm not a human. Staying up late is nothing to me." Li Yun chuckled as he rubbed Anna's little head.

"Watching the night? Just leave it to me." Surprisingly, Ishtar took the initiative to take on the task of watching the night. "I used to sneak out without my father's knowledge, so I have some experience sleeping outdoors."

"As for beds, all we need is Ma Anna."

"???" Seeing Ishtar say this, Li Yun and Anna looked at her with some surprise. Would this goddess be so kind to help keep watch?

"What are you looking at? Even I have a gentle side." The Mistress of Heaven showed an angry expression at the strange gazes of the two men, "Why don't you thank me now!"

"Thank you so much." Li Yun and Anna did not continue to refuse. They crawled into the two tents and began to rest.

"You are a human who really won't refuse a god... You say you are not a human, but in your heart you always consider yourself a human." Ishtar looked at the tent where Li Yun was resting. "This is an occasional kindness from the god. Just accept it with gratitude."

As the night deepened, Ishtar sat quietly by the campfire. As she said, she would keep watch tonight. Since she had already said it, she would definitely not be lazy or fall asleep secretly.

"Are you so worried about me keeping watch?" Ishtar casually added a piece of firewood and said,

PS: "My Pope is a Vampire" Yes, the author is here to recommend books again. This is a new book by Cat Girl (3000 average). The writing is good, but the author is too unfriendly to the original work.

Summary: Luo Wen, a hardcore strategy game master, traveled through time.

Coming to this place, the goddess didn't take her medicine, a vampire was the Pope, and the Holy See of Light exuded a "pill" atmosphere everywhere.

Simply put, this is a story about a time traveler who turned the tables and became the captain after obtaining a copy of difficulty comparable to joining Byzantium in 1453 to revive Rome, joining Sandezi in 1945 to unify the world, and joining the principal in 1949 to become the king of the world.

Chapter 172: Even the Goddess Cannot Resist Yasasi

"Nothing, I just couldn't sleep at night." Li Yun sat next to Ishtar, "Do you mind if I sit here?"

"Why are you asking me when you're already sitting down?" Ishtar on the Sky Boat slowly floated down. "But you're here just in time. I wanted to ask you something tomorrow, but since you can't sleep, I'll ask you now."

"what is your purpose?"

"Purpose?" Li Yun was stunned for a moment, then asked uncertainly: "To save humanity?"

"I'm asking you now, don't answer me with a question!" The goddess pretended to be angry. "Although your current actions are to fight against the Goddess of Warcraft, the fundamental purpose of fighting against the Goddess of Warcraft is not to protect humans. I am very clear about this."

"Don't underestimate the intuition of God."

"You're right, I'm not doing this to save humanity." Li Yun nodded and admitted it directly. His purpose was to save Ai Lei, and protecting humanity was just a by-product.

"You are such a strange person. You are convinced in your heart that you are a human being, but you don't put humans in the most important position."

"Even without me, this world will still be saved. So I'm not worried about this problem." Li Yun whispered softly: "But if I am not in this world, someone who is very important to me will disappear."

"Oh~~~ It's an important person." Ishtar suddenly moved closer to Li Yun, "The one you like? Who is it?"

"This is a secret." Li Yun refused with a smile. He couldn't possibly say that this person was your sister.

"Tsk, how stingy." Ishtar curled her lips, "Well, forget it. It's not the right of a goddess to ask about the private affairs of humans. In short, your purpose is just to protect someone, and then protect humans by the way."

“Well, that’s exactly what I am saying.”

"And then, do you plan to go straight to find the Goddess of the Jungle next?"

He blinked, and his figure was reflected in the goddess's red pupils. "I think you'd better pay attention to that goddess. Because of the difference in cultural circles, what she considers to be 'good' may be 'evil' here. So when you meet, I think there is a high probability that you will fight first."

"Let me make it clear first, that guy is too strong, and I'm not in full condition. If a fight breaks out, I'll probably just be able to take you and fly away."

"That's enough....Thank you, Ishtar."

"Well... I'm only saying this for your gem. If you die, I won't be able to get the gem."

"You don't need to remind me so much, right?"

"I don't know why... I suddenly have the urge to hit you. Is it because you look down on the goddess?" Ishtar stood up and ran into Li Yun's tent angrily, "It's your turn to keep watch next."

Looking at the goddess's departing back, Li Yun looked away after a while, "Good night, Ishtar."

Then, Li Yun rubbed his face vigorously with both hands and began to keep watch peacefully.

The next morning, Ishtar and Anna got up early and set off on their journey. However, when Anna got up and saw Li Yun sitting in front of the fire, she glanced at the other tent without leaving a trace, and then made up her mind that she must keep watch tonight.

The speed of the three was not slow, and Li Yun learned that the Gorgon was already in contact with the jungle goddess Quetzal, so his speed increased even more, resulting in them appearing in Kuta city before dark.

"Is this... Kuta City? I have a bad feeling..." Looking at the prosperous Kuta City, Ishtar felt a bad feeling in her heart.

"The Goddess of the Jungle is in Eridu now. If you want to go to Eridu, you must pass through the city of Kuta. So we will rest here tonight." Li Yun fixed his eyes on Ishtar, and the corners of his mouth drew a smile that continued to magnify Ishtar's bad premonition.

"What's that expression on your face? It's disgusting!"

"Nothing, it's just that the place where we rest tonight may be a little different from what you imagined."

Li Yun, who had kept the secret, took the two of them into the city, and then walked into an alley without anyone noticing.

After making sure that there was no one around, a passage large enough for one person to pass through appeared on the ground in front of the three people.

This passage exudes a strong smell of death, and any normal person can tell at a glance that there is something wrong.

Not to mention Ishtar, the mistress of heaven who had once entered the underworld. She looked at the big hole in shock, "Is this the passage to the underworld!?"

"Well, we'll rest in the underworld tonight."

"Wait, wait wait wait wait!!!" Ishtar suddenly lost her composure. She grabbed Li Yun's arm and said, "You are kidding, right? You must be kidding, right? How is it possible for humans to enter the underworld? And hasn't the underworld disappeared?!"
