I'm tied to Athena.

"Aaaaaa~~~~" Tima's pink face turned red. After affirming Li Yun's words, she said, "Aaaaaa~~~~"

The conversation between Li Yun and Tima is omitted below, and we will go directly to the result.

After communicating with Ti Ma, Li Yun finally understood the current situation.

This is Tima's dream... well, to be exact, it is the illusion world created by Merlin. Tima stayed here on her own initiative out of love for her children, allowing Merlin to block her. The reason why she brought Liyun here was mainly because she wanted to see Liyun.

As for why he wanted to see Li Yun, it had to do with the world's malice towards Tima.

Many people, including Li Yun who played the seventh chapter of the game, believed that Tima had her own emotional "return", but in fact it was not the case.

Whether it is the love for children or the desire to "return" to the world, they are all programs, programs set from the beginning.

Yes, Tima had no personality of her own from the very beginning. Whether she gave birth to, raised, and loved her children, or launched a war against humans who decided that "I don't need you", what drove her was nothing more than the primitive system of "If I don't destroy the current humans, I will be killed."

"She had no personality from the beginning... It's really a prank of the world." The emotions surrounding Tima were so real and warm that even Li Yun couldn't help but be moved by her sadness.

But the result....in the end it says that this is just what the system has arranged long ago, and Tima is not a god or a creature in the true sense, but just a system in flesh and blood?

What a joke!

Li Yun roared. With just one sentence, the system negated the efforts of Tima, who sealed herself for the children, endured endless loneliness for the children, and would rather hurt herself than appear in front of the children?

"What a terrible world!"

"Aaaaa~~~" Ti Ma's gentle voice soothed Li Yun's irritable mood. She shook her head gently, telling Li Yun not to be angry with her.

Because now she is no longer the robot who is dominated by the system and has no personality.

Speaking of this, Li Yun noticed that something was wrong with Tima.

That’s right, if she was still the Ti Ma who was driven by the system, she would never be able to bring Li Yun into her dream, nor would she be able to communicate with Li Yun normally.

"Could it be..." The black-haired boy widened his eyes, and suddenly he heard the sound of a thumping heartbeat in his ears... Although the heartbeat sounded the same, he still recognized it as his own heartbeat!

From Tima's body, I heard his heartbeat.

Chapter 216 Personality and System

The young man looked at the beautiful God of Creation in front of him in astonishment. Although he had thought about what Tiamat would do with his heart, he had never thought that his heart would become a part of Tiamat! ?

"Aaaaa~~~"

The long and brisk tone was still so pleasant to the ears, and Li Yun also understood what was going on from Tima's singing-like voice.

It all started with the moment Li Yun lost her first kiss two months ago.

Because Tima and Gorgon share senses, she developed a strange feeling towards Li Yun based on Gorgon. This was not a big deal, after all, even with shared senses, Li Yun and Tima were still different in essence.

But the bad thing was that Gorgon and Li Yun had an intimate act.

That intimate action greatly stimulated Tim's mother, who shared the senses, and made her feel for the first time a feeling that was different from loving her own child.

The feeling as if he was another self made her even more curious, as she already had a strange feeling about Li Yun.

Of course, I have to correct one thing here. At that time, Tima was still a system, so she would not have her own feelings and personality, and would not have the emotion of liking someone.

However, that kiss did cause a slight error in Tima's system, and this slight error caused Tima to use her power in an unintended way.

Originally, Tima was planning to pull Liyun into the imaginary space, but unexpectedly, Metis's awakening blocked Tima's action. Tima, who used her power only by chance, could not defeat Metis, which made it impossible for her to pull the entire soul over.

But what a coincidence was that Metis's sickle cut Li Yun's soul, causing a little accident to happen to Li Yun's soul. It was this accident that caused his heart to be taken away by Tima.

This should be the oldest heart thief...

"If it hadn't really happened to me, I would definitely think someone was playing a joke on me." It was such a coincidence, so coincidental that it made people wonder if someone had arranged it in advance.

Rubbing his brows, Li Yun reluctantly accepted this statement and continued, "So, after getting my heart, you also have your own personality?"

"Aaaaa~~~~"

That's right, although it's not clear what the principle is, but in short, because of Li Yun's heart, Tima was reborn, and a new consciousness was born outside the procedures prescribed by the system.

Tima's personality began to evolve two months ago, was born a month ago, and is now completely completed.

But Tima's current personality is outside the system and has not been detected by her own program. After all, if the "Principle of Return" gave birth to a personality, would it still be the "Principle of Return"? Once this personality is discovered, the inherent system will definitely destroy it.

Tima tries to get Liyun to come over, on the one hand because she wants to see him, and on the other hand to ask him to help protect this personality.

"I understand what happened in general. In any case, could you please restrain the divinity you gave to the Gorgon for a while?" Li Yun was determined to help, but before that, he had to solve the problem of the Warcraft first.

Hearing this, Tim's mother shook her head gently: "Aaaaa~~"

"The power is controlled by the system, can't you control it...?" This answer was both reasonable and unexpected. After all, it was a personality that was born without telling the system, and it was already very difficult to bring Li Yun in.

"Okay, let's think about what to do now." Li Yun skipped this question. Anyway, he asked this question just with the idea that he would make money if he succeeded... and this answer also made him more accurately understand the current situation of the Tima personality in front of him.

The two began to discuss their current situation in this dream.

Leaving aside other external factors and looking only at the relationship between Tima and the system, the two men agreed on one thing after a discussion - to find a way to control the system and allow the personality created by Tima to take the dominant position.

The reason why Tima wants to destroy the world is because of this system. As long as this system is solved, the crisis of the seventh singularity will be automatically resolved.

However, during the conversation with Tima, Li Yun discovered that this system was the core of the second beast. It was because of the existence of this system that Tima became the second beast.

"In other words, if you want to take a dominant position, you still have to find a way to deal with the second beast..." After going around in circles, they realized that what they had to do remained unchanged.

"Wait!" Suddenly, Li Yun felt a little confused.

"If my heart concept entered your body, the system should have detected it long ago. Why..."

"Aaaaa~~"

"Is that so... Merlin's illusion is so powerful that it can actually trap the second beast." Li Yun changed his opinion of Merlin. This guy who is a crown-qualified magician is really not to be underestimated.

"In that case..." Li Yun smiled silently, "Tiamat, help me."

While Li Yun and Tiamat were thinking about how to make this accidentally born personality replace the second beast and become the true dominant personality of the god Tiamat, a huge quarrel broke out on the Uruk side.

“Huh!!!? He went to find the Gorgon!?” In the communicator, the projected body of Ishtar widened its eyes and roared in disbelief: “Are you idiots? You are idiots! Ereshkigal! What are you doing! Why don’t you stop him!?”

Three days have passed since Li Yun went to the Blood Temple. In order to ensure that Li Yun's whereabouts would not be discovered, Ai Lei and Athena deliberately hid in the underworld.

However, because Li Yun had not appeared for three days and the monsters did not attack, the servants became a little confused. They immediately reported the matter to Gilgamesh, who knew about it, but Gilgamesh ordered them not to discuss Li Yun anymore and asked them to continue to complete their mission.

However, even if Gilgamesh ordered it, the gossip would still be spread. This matter soon reached the ears of the leopard man, and the leopard man hurriedly passed it on to Quetzal.

Upon hearing the news, Quetzal seemed to realize something, so he joined forces with Ishtar to force Merlin to tell him what happened.

Knowing that Li Yun might be in trouble, Anna silently put the sickle on Merlin's neck, as if she was going to kill him if they disagreed.

The trickster was forced to tell everyone about this incident, and then Ishtar roared loudly in the Temple of Uruk.

In fact, if Quetzal had not been stronger than Ishtar and had not held Ishtar tightly, she would have probably reached the Temple of Blood by now, ready to fight to the death with the Gorgon.

Chapter 217: Ishtar Evolution—Inanna!

"Why are you angry with me? Do you think I don't want to stop him? I, I..." Ailei was so angry at Ishtar's roar that she put her hands on her hips. She still regrets why she didn't go out to stop him.

It has been three days, and the Warcraft has not attacked again, which means that he has successfully negotiated and entered the Primordial Sea. Will he lose himself and become Tiamat's child now?... She is really worried.

"So the current situation is that Lord Li Yun chose to go to the temple of the Goddess of Warcraft to negotiate because he knew that the north wall would be breached in the future, just to buy us some time."

"I am deeply moved by Lord Li Yun's actions."

The followers paid tribute to Li Yun's actions. They were all famous heroes in human history, and they were all walking on the path they believed to be right. If Uruk encountered a crisis of life and death, they would definitely make the same choice as Li Yun.

But this still does not prevent them from paying respect to Li Yun.

"Ishtar, don't tell me about your foolish act of giving up summoning the Bull of Heaven and going to the Blood Temple to save people." Gilgamesh's red eyes were full of majesty. "Although I have never liked your behavior, at least you are qualified to be a goddess."

"If you dare to say such a thing, I will have to consider changing to a different city god."

“Ugh…!” Ishtar turned her head away fiercely. “I know it without you telling me! Damn it!”

"Then King, is your clairvoyance still usable? What will happen in the future?" Merlin's clairvoyance can only see what is happening now, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future. The only one who can see the future now is Gilgamesh.

"I no longer have enough magic power to use my clairvoyance. If you want to know what will happen in the future, use your own hands to explore!"

Gilgamesh waved his hand, as if he thought there was no need to discuss this topic any further. "Well, I have other things to deal with. Go and finish your own things first!"

"It's just right. We can put the matter of the north wall on hold for now. Go and deal with my secret weapon."

"Is this the end?" Everyone was surprised. Even Siduri showed an expression of disbelief. She just said "I can't see the future" and then just brushed the matter aside?

Li Yun used himself to buy two months of peace for mankind!

"Do you still want me to make a big fuss about it? He's not dead yet, why are you making such a face?!"

At Gilgamesh's emphasis, everyone left and began to carry out their tasks.

Ishtar, who was worried about Li Yun's comfort, went all out and called all the available servants over. Athena, Ere and Tomoe Gozen also joined in the ceremony of summoning the Bull of Heaven.

With the servants' tireless efforts, Ishtar completely carved the magic circle in just one month.

"She's really trying her best." Merlin couldn't help but sigh as he watched Ishtar exhaust the last drop of magic power in her body.

"The goddess who only bursts out with strong willpower when encountering difficulties actually showed such an indestructible will at this time."

To complete the magic circle in one month is not too demanding for others. After all, with so many servants and gods taking turns, it is enough for each of them to share a little magic power. But for Ishtar, who is carving the magic circle and infusing her own magic power, this month is definitely her most hard-working month.

"It should be said that it is precisely because of this moment that she is like this." Quetzal looked up at the thunderclouds that had gathered at some unknown time, "And after saying so much, I think you should protect yourself. The thunderclouds are coming."

When Ishtar finished carving the last stroke of the magic circle, terrifying magical power suddenly spread out - she couldn't wait to summon the Bull of Heaven.

The magic circle engraved on the entire Mesopotamian plain radiated a light that reached the sky. The huge magic power formed thick thunderclouds in the sky, blocking all light.

The only bright spots in the thick, dark clouds were streaks of white lightning.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The thunderclouds covering the entire plain made deafening roars. The people living in the south all looked up, their hearts cast with a shadow because of these terrifying thunderclouds.

"Can't that stupid goddess be gentler?" Gilgamesh, standing on the temple, looked at where Ishtar was, then looked in the direction of the Temple of Blood, and murmured in a low voice: "I hope your choice is right, otherwise, I'm afraid I will have to send you off myself."

"This thunder has the ability to shatter spiritual foundations. Everyone be careful and don't get hit by the thunder!" The thunder coming down from the sky made people's bones numb... This is the result without direct contact. If there is direct contact, I'm afraid that if you don't die, you will become disabled for life.

"Yes, this is the power of Gugalana, the Bull of Heaven!" Ishtar flew into the air against the strong wind. She opened her arms, and the thunder and storm around her immediately became docile in front of her, as if welcoming their master.

"This is the Bull of Heaven, the mythical beast that destroyed the entire Mesopotamian plain. Even Gimpica and Enkidu had to join forces to defeat it! And now, the last power I lost has finally returned!"

As mentioned before, the current Ishtar is incomplete, because she has lost one of her powers due to the loss of the Bull of Heaven, so she is Ishtar and not Inanna.

But now, the Bull of Heaven has reappeared and completed Ishtar's last power, causing her to evolve as well.

The pupils of the Lady of Heaven turned golden, but this time it was no longer pure gold—her pupils and the whites of her eyes were surrounded by an even brighter and more dazzling golden color, and the divine power she released continued to grow stronger.

She is transforming.

When she transformed, the earth also let out its own cry after the sky roared. The magic circle carved on the earth was slowly disintegrating the earth, making it a part of the Bull of Heaven.

A terrifying beast that was hundreds of meters tall was born in the storm. Then, its excited roar turned into a strong wind and spread throughout the world!

As the Bull of Heaven was perfected, Ishtar's transformation was gradually completed.

A golden crown appeared on her head, the jewelry on her ears turned into arrow shapes, a dazzling necklace appeared on her neck, and the decoration on her chest also changed shape.... The seven powers that were taken away from her returned to Ishtar one after another!

Finally, the ancient god Ishtar, who was driving the sky boat Maana, completed her rebirth.

Chapter 218 Liyun Rescue Plan

"Is this what Ishtar originally looked like?" Quetzal exclaimed. The divine power emanating from Ishtar was now comparable to hers.

"Yes, this is what the goddess Ishtar really looks like in Mesopotamian mythology." Merlin looked up at the goddess' figure and began to explain the relationship between Ishtar and Inanna.

According to legend, Inanna, also known as Ishtar and Ishtar, is the oldest goddess in charge of the sky. If Inanna's name is broken down according to the meaning of this era, it can be concluded that it means "female goddess Anu".

In other words, Inanna is the original goddess, and the name Ishtar was born after the myth was passed down.

The appearance of the Bull of Heaven made Ishtar completely return to her ancient form. This also meant that Ishtar regained her original power - the power of the God King that originally belonged to her!

"Although it seems a little hard to believe, it is true. Ishtar's power is now about the same as mine, at the level of a god king." Quetzal confirmed Merlin's words and said, "It looks like we can fight back."

"Yes, we can fight back now!" Ishtar fell from the sky, her divinity rising as she smiled wildly: "I have returned to my original form - the sky is completely under my control, all power is in my hands! Even if I am alone, I can kill the Gorgon!"

"Although this goddess is the kind of woman who will put all her gambling money in one basket and then destroy herself, but only at this moment, I think it is great to have the help of this goddess." Merlin finally breathed a sigh of relief. They got a God King and a super beast at once, and their fighting power skyrocketed.

“Hey, you just said something very rude!” Ishtar’s majestic aura disappeared in an instant, “I will never do something that will destroy myself!”

"When you fight, fight brilliantly to win. If you can't win, drag the enemy down with you and die together. It's that simple."

"....." Everyone was silent for a moment, silently complaining in their hearts, 'Isn't this the same as self-destruction?'
