In the feverish temple filled with the sound of birds and the fragrance of flowers, Ereshkigal sat on a throne made of obsidian, gently weaving a cage to imprison the souls of the dead.
Suddenly, she raised her beautiful face and looked up at the temple.
"No way, mother actually woke up at this time!"
"Is the underworld going to be in action crisis again? I finally have a moment of leisure without you."
Ereshkigal was so shocked that he didn't even notice that the cage he was almost finished weaving had fallen to the ground.
In the end, it was Enmeibaragesi, one of the underworld clerks summoned by her using the power of the Queen of the Underworld, who picked up the soul cage from the ground and completed the last step of weaving.
But soon, the expression on Ereshkigal's face changed from shock to extreme displeasure.
"Damn it! That guy Ishtar was so selfish that he didn't even tell me that Luo Yun was back!"
"Next time she comes to the underworld, I will imprison her in a cage for a thousand years!!!"
However, before long, under Enmeibara Geshi's gaze, Ereshkigal's expression became like that of a child who had not received a reward.
The mistress of the underworld, who was originally so majestic that mortals feared her and gods revered her, pursed her small cherry lips slightly, and now she began to sob softly.
"Wow~ Since you're back, why don't you come to see me? Why do you have to go to that bad woman? I miss you too."
"You haven't forgotten me, have you?"
"No, wait... Could it be that Ishtar woman was pestering Luo Yun and that's why he didn't come to see me?"
The next moment, the mistress of the underworld raised her legs slightly and stomped hard on the floor under the throne, as if she was treating it as Ishtar, venting her dissatisfaction in her heart.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn Ishtar!!!"
Inside the temple, after taking a look at the actions of the mistress of the underworld that were totally inconsistent with the majesty of a god, Enmeibara Geshi, who came to the underworld to become one of the underworld's secretaries after his life came to an end, quickly withdrew his gaze...
Although when he was getting along with Ereshkigal, the other party did not treat him as a subordinate because he had been favored by Luo Yun.
But Enmeibalagesi still knew the difference in identity and status between the two, and she also knew the reason why this mistress of the underworld, who even the gods had to fear, was so kind to her, so she did not take advantage of her favor, but continued to uphold her identity as a priestess of the gods and scribe of the underworld.
Just as he had assisted Gilgamesh in the world of the living, he assisted Ereshkigal with all his heart!
————Click, click, click…
But soon, Enmeibalagesi heard the sound of the ground cracking, and his beautiful eyes, as clear and bright as rubies, immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
At the feet of Ereshkigal, the solid ground of the underworld beneath the throne was cracked into dense cracks like a dry riverbed, and the cold wind of death was blowing up from these cracks!
But what particularly concerned Enmeibalagosi was what Ereshkigal had just said.
"I see. Is the reason why the goddess lost her composure because that master has returned?"
"If that's the case, with that master's power, he should be able to resolve the current crisis in Mesopotamia!"
After all, she had seen the judge of heaven and earth, the great sun god Shamash lower his proud head before Luo Yun, and how the high and mighty gods humbled themselves to let their priests extend an invitation to Luo Yun.
All these are enough to prove that Luo Yun has the power that makes the gods fear him, otherwise those high and mighty gods would not behave so humbly!
While Enmeibara Geshi was thinking about this, Ereshkigal had also finished venting his anger and left his throne. He then gave orders to his secretary, "Enmeibara Geshi, tell all the Galula spirits in the underworld to guard the cage. I will go to the surface. You will be fully responsible for all matters in the underworld before I come back!"
Since he gained the authority of the Imagination Tree and was able to exercise the power to change the rules of the planet and reshape the myth, Ereshkigal is no longer bound by the rules of the underworld and can even set foot on the earth himself! .
Chapter 290: The goddesses quarreling with each other! (Subscribe please!)
On the beach of the Persian Gulf, after slaughtering all the sea monsters that showed up, Ishtar returned to Luo Yun from the sky.
Although these huge and bloodthirsty sea monsters are nightmares for ordinary people, they are not as powerful as Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, who is at the level of a main god.
Even though he was not in his real body now, but was acting with the help of the body of a girl summoned by the priest of Uruk, dealing with these sea monsters was still as easy as chopping melons and vegetables!
The only thing that made the Venus goddess unhappy was that these sea monsters disturbed her date with Luo Yun.
This is a very precious opportunity. Once Ereshkigal and Gilgamesh know that Luo Yun has returned to Mesopotamia, they will definitely take action to snatch her husband away from her!
“Hehe, what do you think? Even though I’m using a human body now, my power remains undiminished, right?”
The goddess Venus floated to Luo Yun's side, half-sitting in the air and spoke to her husband with pride.
While Ishtar was speaking, her black hair fluttered in the wind, and her beautiful scarlet eyes looked directly at her husband, with a hint of expectation in her pride.
This goddess of beauty, harvest and war, who is favored by the gods in Mesopotamian mythology, is now looking forward to her husband's praise!
Looking at Ishtar, who looked like the heroine between heaven and earth just by standing there, with even the breeze setting off her beauty, Luo Yun, who doted on his wife, chuckled and said, knowing the meaning of her words:
"As expected of the goddess who rules Venus, you are so beautiful in your original form or in your current spiritual base attached to a human being. I can't help but linger on."
"Hum~"
Hearing the praise from her beloved husband, Ishtar nodded happily.
However, at this moment, the goddess' beautiful black hair turned into bright gold at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her temperament changed from passionate and arrogant to covered by the cold breath of death.
The only thing that remained unchanged was the pair of beautiful scarlet eyes that looked at Luo Yun with love!
"Long time no see, Ellie."
The moment Ishtar changed, Luo Yun recognized the true form of the goddess who was temporarily occupying Ishtar's body.
Luo Yun's gentle greeting made the mistress of the underworld, who was originally preparing to blame Luo Yun after occupying Ishtar's body, forget her temper for a moment and just stood there in a daze.
It took her three full seconds to come back to her senses. A faint blush appeared on her pretty face. She tilted her head to the side and said proudly:
"What? So you still remember me. I saw you playing so hard with Ishtar that I thought you had forgotten me!"
Ereshkigal's words were like he had eaten a pound of lemons. Luo Yun didn't need to guess to know that Mingjie's mistress was jealous because he was with her sisters the first thing he did when he came back and didn't go to the underworld to see her.
The goddess's cuteness made Luo Yun laugh out loud.
But this laughter made the mistress of the underworld feel that she was being mocked. She immediately pouted her rosy lips and said to Luo Yun with dissatisfaction: "What's so funny!!!"
"No, I just suddenly realized that you are so cute, Ailei."
"Hmm~"
Rowan's words caused Ereshkigal to wail with laughter, making the underworld mistress's cheeks even redder.
"W-what? How can a word like cute be used to describe the majestic mistress of the underworld!"
"Of course, if the person who said this is you, my husband, I will be generous and forgive you."
"You must, you must thank me very much!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, something seemed to be wrong with Ereshkigal's expression.
"Stingy guy, can I borrow your body for a while?"
After leaving these words, Ereshkigal closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the beautiful scarlet eyes remained unchanged, but the color of his hair turned back to black, and his temperament also returned to the unique pride and enthusiasm of Ishtar when facing Luo Yun!
"Damn Ereshkigal, you actually dared to use my body to seduce my husband, you shameless woman!"
As Ishtar cursed, the breath of death permeated from the beach. The mistress of the underworld used the power of the Imagination Tree to break the rules of the underworld and left the world of the dead that had bound her. She stepped onto the land of Mesopotamia in person, holding a gun-shaped cage.
"Hmph~ You are the one who is shameless, Ishtar. Even though you are Luo Yun's wife, you are just one of his many wives. Just occupying his place for a short while is enough."
"You actually want to monopolize the next period of time! How bold! Have you forgotten the lesson you learned when I trapped you in the underworld?"
As a goddess in two persons, Ereshkigal immediately knew what her half sister was thinking.
Enjoy Luo Yun’s exclusive favor!!!
Although this was also what she thought in her heart, Ereshkigal would always keep a very low profile when facing Luo Yun due to past reasons, so she did not express this mentality.
Therefore, for Ereshkigal, Ishtar, who expressed this mentality, was wrong!
This is the pride that the mistress of the underworld holds when facing people who are not Luo Yun!!!
"Ha! I think you have forgotten who was the first person that Luo Yun favored, but I was the first to propose to him, and you are just a latecomer, 943 Ereshkigal!"
Seeing Ereshkigal leaving the underworld and stepping onto the land of Mesopotamia, Ishtar did not show any shock. Instead, she fiercely refuted what she had just said.
"If we talk about who came first, then Enmeibala Geshi, one of my secretaries, would be the first person that Luo Yun favored in Mesopotamia!"
Seeing the excitement on Ishtar's face, Ereshkigal said with a smile.
This sentence made Ishtar not know how to refute for a moment.
At this time, Luo Yun, who caused the two goddesses to confront each other at this moment, spoke.
"Let's do it later. I noticed that a large number of monsters suddenly gathered not far from Uruk City."
"Oh~ There are also servants' spirit bases. I think they should be summoned by Gilgamesh using the Holy Grail to act as defenders."
"I want to go over and see who of you wants to go with me."
As soon as Luo Yun finished speaking, the two goddesses stopped arguing and said in unison: "I want to go!"
Hearing the same answer from their own sister, Ishtar and Ereshkigal looked at each other instantly.
"Damn it, don't imitate me, Ishtar/Ereshkigal!"
"Hmph!" ×2.
Chapter 291: Absolute Warcraft Front! (Subscribe!)
On the land of Mesopotamia, several kilometers away from Uruk, a wall stretching for several kilometers stands on the ground.
This is a wall built by the humans of Mesopotamia to defend against monsters and protect the last city.
Its name————Absolute Demonic Front!!!
It is the last defense of the Mesopotamian humans, which cannot be crossed by the monsters that devour humans.
Because once these monsters cross this wall, they will be able to march straight into Uruk and completely destroy the last human civilization in Mesopotamia!
Although this line of defense seems weak, it is actually extremely stubborn. Led by the servants summoned by Gilgamesh using the Holy Grail, the ordinary people stationed here put up a tenacious resistance, preventing the Warcraft from breaking through this last line of defense until now.
"Quick, quick, quick, the attack from the west is intensifying. Leave 100 people here, and the others will come with me to support the west!"
"No, I will go to the west to provide support, and you guys continue to stay here."
When some soldiers were about to leave, a strong man wearing a Spartan helmet stood up.
"Oh, it turns out that Mr. Leonidas is going there in person. I think the west will be freed from the threat of the monsters soon."
The soldiers were quite excited to see Leonidas standing out from the crowd.
As the king of Sparta in later generations, he led only 300 people and temporarily blocked the Persians at Thermopylae with the steep terrain. He still enjoyed prestige among the people living in Mesopotamia where the Age of Gods had not completely subsided!
The soldiers who are here are trusting me deeply!!!
"Everyone, don't be careless. Be alert. The monster's attack this time is extremely fierce. After I leave this direction, you must be careful!"
After leaving these words, Leonidas rushed towards the western defense line at full speed in the admiring eyes of the soldiers.
However, just over three minutes after he left, the number of monsters outside this line of defense suddenly increased.
The soldiers who were conducting reconnaissance on the wall felt a chill in their hearts as they watched more and more monsters being killed outside the wall.
As more and more monsters were killed, it confirmed what Leonidas said before he left, that this monster offensive was more unusual than ever before.
The monster that originally only knew how to attack with strong force now seemed to have gained wisdom and learned the strategy of distracting others!
The soldier who suddenly discovered this was immediately terrified and felt a chill down his spine!!!
Then, the monster broke through the wall. Several cold lights flashed in the chaos. A black-haired girl in armor hurriedly arrived here and killed the monster that broke into the wall in a moment.
Like Leonidas who was here three minutes ago, she is also one of the Servants summoned by Gilgamesh using the Holy Grail.
One of the few generals in the Far East who can rival Oda Nobunaga—Ushiwakamaru!
Just as Ushiwakamaru was about to step out of the defense line breached by the monsters and go outside to fight, Musashibo Mouqing, who followed Ushiwakamaru to the battlefield, persuaded him:
"Mr. Ushiwakamaru, please don't be impulsive. This attack by the monsters is unusual. I'm afraid someone is behind it. Please don't go too deep into the enemy camp to avoid falling into their trap."
However, just as Musashibo Mouqing was speaking, another monster rushed in from the hole in the wall that had been breached and attacked Ushiwakamaru.
But at this moment, Ushiwakamaru was distracted for a moment because of what Musashibo Mouqing had just said. Even if the soldiers next to him wanted to rush forward to support him, it was too late!
Just when the girl was about to die, a sharp arrow carrying flames flew from a distance and pierced through the head of the monster. This gave Ushiwakamaru time to react, and in about three seconds he killed all the seven monsters that rushed in from the broken wall!
"Please don't be distracted on the battlefield."
As a gentle female voice sounded, a beautiful girl wrapped in armor, with beautiful silver hair, ruby eyes, and devil horns on her head, holding a longbow, ran to the battlefield from hundreds of meters away.
Ah, it's Tomoe Gozen, thank you for what you did just now.
After Ushiwakamaru thanked the silver-haired girl with demon horns, Musashibo Moukei also thanked the girl.
"Thank you for your help, Lord Tomoe!"
Then he looked at Ushiwakamaru with a guilty look on his face: "I'm sorry, Lord Ushiwakamaru, I almost caused you to lose your life just now because of me!"
