Chapter 16: Gilgamesh
"But that's not right! The fifth generation of natural kings is still alive, his life is like the sun at noon, there is still a long time before dusk, why is there another king born at this time? The girl muttered, muttering to herself in some confusion.
"Could it be that his royal way is immoral, so another natural king is born? But this has never happened before, has it ever been? What should I do? Ahhh What to do? Mother Earth! Can you drop a hint to the goddess? โ
"This girl, I have a feeling that you must have misunderstood something, and things are certainly not what you imagined." Regarding the girl's question, although Song Yu didn't know the specific meaning, she must have misunderstood something.
He had come to complete the trial of purifying the demonic energy of this realm, but he didn't want to become mortal enemies with the biggest ruler of the land out of thin air at the beginning of the trial.
was so anxious that Song Yu shook his head again and again, and shook off the hairbands that were already some loose in the process of escaping, so that a green silk was scattered.
ฮฃ(?ะด?|||)?? Hair?
"How did my hair turn green? Am I a youkai? Song Yu said in horror like a meow that had been stepped on by the tail.
"Huh? What's so strange about this, don't you know? Yes, if you knew, you probably wouldn't have picked a golden apple. Hearing Song Yu's screams, the girl finally came back to her senses and gave him an answer.
"The golden apple is a gift given to us by the Mother Earth God, and it is also equivalent to the flesh and blood of the Mother Earth God, if the golden apple is not petrified into a statue by the power in it, it will be sublimated from a mortal to the heir of the Earth Mother, that is, it will become a half-human and half-god-like existence, and of course its appearance will change to a certain extent."
"This should be something that everyone in our Sumerian realm knows! Why don't you know? The girl tilted her head, and then said something that made Song Yu's heart tremble, "Could it be that you are not from our Sumerian realm, and you are a demon who invaded from outside the sky?" โ
The scene became solemn for a while, and after a while, Song Yu calmly replied: "I'm not a demon, I'm a trialist sent by the Fusang Dao people to purify the demon." โ
The girl patted her head and seemed to remember something: "By the way, the Father of the Sky - Fusang, sent down a myth to say that a brave man from another world is coming?" Could it be that you are the brave? โ
"What do you mean by brave?" Song Yu asked again.
"A brave man is a brave man! If you have to say it, it is the one who bears the grace of God, repells evil, and brings hope, right? The girl thought for a moment and replied.
"It's not as great as you say, but if I'm not mistaken, I'm what you call a brave man." Song Yu wiped his nose and nodded in acknowledgment.
"Indeed, I sense that you are not lying, and the aura of the Father of the Firmament in you proves it. So dear brave man, I'm sorry to misunderstand your identity. After listening to Song Yu's answer, the girl closed her eyes very seriously, as if she sensed something, and then apologized to Song Yu embarrassedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to be cautious." Although Song Yu is not a good person, in front of beauties, no matter how bad his temper is, his temper will always get better.
The girl was forgiven and happily gave Song Yu a big smile, which made Song Yu feel as if he had been hit by an arrow in his heart, and he felt that he might .....
"Ah, yes, almost rude." The girl seemed to think of something again, hurriedly restrained her expression, and saluted Song Yu with a solemn and cumbersome etiquette.
"Greetings to you in the name of Fuso, the god of the Father of the Firmament, and the goddess of Ningsun, the goddess of the earth, as the first priest of the Great Temple, and welcome to the Sumerian realm, the brave from the other world.
I will be your guide, you can call me Divine Queen, and I will meet all your needs without violating my duty. โ
Song Yu accepted this salute, waved his hand with a wry smile and said: "Excuse me, excuse me, just call me Song Yu, I also drove ducks to the shelves for the first time, can Miss Shenji tell me about the general situation here?" โ
"Understood, Your Highness Song Yu." Kamihime nodded.
"It's just that His Royal Highness Song Yu wants to know what kind of information?"
"Let's talk about your ruler first, and how is the battle situation on your side against those extraterrestrial demons?"
Song Yu is not a modern person after all, as a genuine, native of the noble son of the Dayuan Dynasty, a brave man, a demon, and even the trials and tribulations that the Fusang Daoist said to him, there is still no sense of reality for Song Yu.
According to the known information, Song Yu reluctantly understood the matter: Many years ago, a court of immortals and gods named Heavenly Court fought a prodigious war with another force known as the Outer Heaven Demon, as for how the war was fought, who lost and who won, it had nothing to do with him for the time being, and there was no need to think about it for the time being.
One of them, the Heavenly Court Prince, named Emperor Donghua, unfortunately fell in the war, and his fiefdom was also infected by the demonic forces outside the sky.
And his own positioning is a bit similar to a little blood relationship, in the case of the former owner's family is all dead, there are one or two lucky people who may inherit the title.
He must continue to make contributions, regain lost territory, and repel the remaining demonic forces outside the sky in order to gain the inheritance of the former lord and the recognition of his subordinates, and even inherit the title of the former lord.
Judging from this as a war to clean up the mess, Song Yu is much clearer and more experienced.
His hometown of Nanling was originally the land of Baiyue, and it was only a few hundred years of civilization, bordering many small southern barbarian countries.
There are often coups or wars within these small southern barbarian countries, and the Song lords, as the emperor of Nanlingtu, naturally inevitably intervened in it, supported some defeated small royal family members, and defeated the "rebels" to regain the throne.
Although Song Yu had never done this kind of thing personally, he at least knew that he should start from that side.
The "demons" are the rebels, and here they are the "own people" who have not surrendered and are still defending against the rebels. So if you want to regain the lost territory, you must at least understand the land snake and the general battle situation, right?
"I know, Your Highness Song Yu, our Sumerian realm has a history of about 4,300 years, and has been ruled by five natural kings, and now the fifth generation of kings is named - Gilgamesh, and he is our supreme ruler."
"For three hundred years since King Gilgamesh successfully challenged the Golden Apple, he has protected the people of the Sumerian realm from the demons that descend from the heavens.
In the early years, it was necessary for the sacrifices of our Great Temple and the soldiers to resist the tide of demons, but now even if there are more demons, King Gilgamesh alone can resist them.
Under the protection of his endless soldiers, even those demon lords who were as powerful as gods did not dare to attack our Sumerian realm lightly. Just ......"
When Shen Ji said this, she felt a little embarrassed.
Song Yu saw the embarrassment of Shen Ji, although he didn't want to embarrass the beauty, but thinking about the task he was carrying, he still asked, "Isn't this a good thing?" If there is such a powerful king, wouldn't my trials be easier? But if there's anything you want to hide, please try to tell it, and I hope that Miss Shinki doesn't hide anything from me. โ
โ..... Obey, His Highness Song Yu. Yes, it should have been a good thing, King Gilgamesh has surpassed all the kings of the previous generations, he has reached two-thirds of the gods, one-third of the high godhead of men, and is even expected to ascend to the supreme throne. But over the years, he ....."
