Gabriel passed the "examination of fate, the judgment of the end", disappeared into the gray vortex, reached the immortal eternity, the pain suffered under the attack of black lightning disappeared in an instant, and there was no pain in a world where there was nothing, even she was equivalent to not existing.

I don't know how long time has passed, because there is no concept of time, it may be only a moment in the world, or it may be a long time, Gabriel finally came to his senses. At this moment, she is a kind of idealistic existence, and when the soul regains clarity, this god finally comes to her senses, and inexplicably feels a kind of guidance, as if she can step into another world. She had seen a glimmer of light far away and seemingly near.

She was about to fly towards this light, or rather, it was the light that approached her, as if to lead her into another world, and then the light disappeared. Gabriel was stunned when Amon's figure suddenly appeared in front of him, waving his hand to open up a lonely space-time, a complex and profound message imprinted into Gabriel's soul, and she also felt the pain caused by the wound of the form.

Amon gave up the world he had created, temporarily opened up a space for Gabriel to heal, and immediately told her many mysteries after transcending immortality. Gabriel saluted Amun, and when she stood up again, she had returned to her normal appearance, holding a golden stone in her hand and handing it to Amun, "My god, relying on the protection of this sacred stone, I have finally passed the test and come to you. This divine stone was not damaged, but there was an extra tear stain. ”

Amon took the tear of the gods left by Mary, and saw the tear in the faint golden light. This tear stain is not a crack nor the texture of the stone itself, all ordinary stone and all kinds of special stone do not contain any impurities, no matter what color, the texture is pure and transparent without a single flaw, if there is a crack on it, it will be damaged and turned into powder.

This tear stain appeared in the light, and no matter what angle you turned the stone to look at, the tear stain appeared where the gaze was.

There is no need for the gods to communicate with each other, and the message imprinted in the soul can explain everything clearly. Amon nodded and held up the tears of the gods, and the golden light sprinkled on Gabriel's body, which guarded the healing of this transcendent god, and I don't know how long time passed.

Gabriel's injuries gradually recovered, and there was no need to stay in this lonely time and space, she could return to the world to recuperate in the Garden of Eden. Amun planned to wait for her to fully recover before teaching some of the mysteries of the cultivation of the gods, so he had been standing quietly in the lonely time and space with the tears of the gods.

But Amon didn't wait for Gabriel to fully recover, and for some reason or reason, the golden light from the Tears of the Gods suddenly trembled. Gabriel in front of him also sensed it, raised his head from his meditative state and asked, "My God, what happened to shock you so much?"

At the same time, two things happened, one was that in the human world, the great magician Ge Lie, who was the commander of Amon's respectful master, was killed in battle, and the other was that Amun heard a distant call, and it was from the distant Anuna Kingdom of God.

Goret's prestige in the kingdom of Hatie surpassed that of the gods, and his status and glory were unmatched, what kind of war required his old man to rush to the front line? How could this almost the best military commander on the continent be killed? It has to start from the beginning, at this time, twelve years after Amun's departure from the earth.

...... Amon refined and fused the primordial lotus flower and the Heavenly Mandate Book in his soul, and it took three years to create a world of God until it was destroyed, and it took seven and a half years to protect Gabriel to heal his wounds. Before Gabriel's arrival, Amon had been distracted, oblivious to anything that was happening on earth.

In the past twelve years, earth-shaking changes have taken place on the Tianshu Continent, and the fate of the people Amun has met in his travels around the world has almost changed. All of this happened in a sense because of the appearance of a god, and he was Marduk, who broke away from the Anunnaqi god line. In the human world, it was also accompanied by the rise of a kingdom, that is, the Kingdom of Potts.

The Kingdom of Potz is far east of the Tianshu Continent, and it is an unremarkable desolate and remote place in history, with many primitive tribes and weak kingdoms, and Potz is just one of them. The process of the rise of Potz is the process of the annexation and integration of these tribes and kingdoms, but Potz has very little dealings with the countries of the Tianshu Continent, and people do not know much about it.

The most experienced mortal Amun had ever seen was Aesop, a slave lord who had traveled to many places and recorded countless legends. On their way back home, Moses and the others were tempted by a strange deity who called himself Buckley. Amon had heard the name in the story told by Aesop, a god worshipped in the kingdom of Potts. Amon also suspects that this Buckley may be another identity of Marduk.

Amun's guess was right, Barkley was another name for Marduk, just as Amon had another name called Aroha or Satan. The name of the deity is not a title of praise offered by the temple on earth, each name corresponds to a unique identity and a unique guide, and the believers in the world do not even know their true meaning.

Before Amun's departure, the kingdom of Poz ushered in the most rapid era of prosperity and expansion in history, which was directly related to the conquest of Sinnah the Great. When the Assyrian Empire rose, Sinach the Great not only attacked the plains of Barun and Duk, but also launched campaigns in the eastern borders of the empire, slaughtering many weak tribes and kingdoms.

Many loose tribes and kingdoms were unable to protect themselves and feared the brutal conquest of the Assyrian Empire, so in order to survive and protect themselves, they took refuge in the growing power of the Potz Kingdom in the east. As a result, the territory of Potz and Assyria extended from east to west respectively, and eventually evolved into a state of bordering, and the situation was temporarily stabilized.

After Sinach's assassination, the kingdom of Poz had an eloquent monarch named Cyrus. Empress Sémir's decision to recall Faust and the Legion of Giants and abandon the Duc Plain was also due to the pressure of the rise of the Kingdom of Potts in the east. Faust returned home and stayed in the imperial capital of Neveh, while the Legion of the Giants was sent to the eastern frontier to defend against an attack by the Kingdom of Pozz.

According to Semir, if the kingdom of Porz continued to expand westward, it would be the Assyrian Empire that would bear the brunt of the war. However, Samir was wrong, and the kingdom of Poz first attacked the kingdom of Elamite north of Assyria, shortly after Amun's departure.

...... To the north of the Assyrian Empire, in ancient times, it was a wild land, inhabited by a number of nomadic tribes, who were influenced by the civilization of the Celestial Continent, learned to build city-states, and gradually settled and merged in the migration, forming a country called Elam.

Cyrus' army first conquered Elam, destroyed the kingdom and established a province, appointed governors in charge of lawsuits, taxes, and internal security, transforming the primitive and backward kingdom into a modern city-state, and establishing a complete administrative and military system.

Shortly after the annexation of Elam, the large army of Potz continued to advance westward, bypassing the Assyrian Empire from the north and directly to the northeastern border of the Hati kingdom, capturing the city-state of Lydi in Hati.

Rudi was on the verge of wilderness in the northeastern corner of Hati, and had historically been plagued only by scattered nomadic tribes, and the city-state was loosely guarded and crushed at the touch of a blow by the invasion of the Poz army. King Asher sent a large army to the border to meet the battle, but was also defeated by Cyrus. The king, who had been so proud of himself as such, finally realized that the situation was not good, and he personally went to the door and asked Goreh to take command of the army.

In recent years, Goret had stopped paying attention to the mundane affairs of the kingdom of Hatt, knowing that his prestige in the kingdom was too high and had affected the authority of King Asher, so he simply hid himself from suspicion, and King Asher was happy to see this. This time, however, the situation was different, as the king of Asher could have sent an envoy to summon Goreh, but instead he went to visit the city-state of Syria himself.

When Goreh returned, he did two things, one was to collect troops in the cities of Meso and Budamia and drive to the northeastern border, these two city-states were established in the war, the city-state garrison and even the ordinary residents were capable of conscripting and fighting, and its generals were also the descendants of Goret who had been trained by him. The second thing was to send emissaries to negotiate an alliance with the Assyrian Empire, and the two countries would unite against the Poz army.

The original strategy of the Assyrian Empire was to sit back and watch the battle, believing that the Hatian kingdom was not as weak as Elam, and that the Potz army would pay a heavy price if they won or lost. If the Poz army was defeated, the Assyrian Empire could take advantage of the opportunity, and if the Poz army was victorious, the Assyrian Empire could attack from the flank and rear while it was tired.

However, Goret told the Assyrian empress that the strength of the kingdom of Poz exceeded the original estimate, and that the army of Hatti could hardly be an opponent. If the Hatti is defeated, according to Cyrus's strategy of gradually encroaching and feeding the war with war, it will be difficult for the Assyrian Empire to pick up the advantage of the weakness, but will become the next target to be encroached upon, and the best strategic choice is to join forces to attack.

After deliberation among the Assyrian courtiers, they finally decided that Gore's judgment was correct. The kingdom of Poz annexed Elam, but instead of losing anything, it grew in strength, and if it waited until it defeated Hati, the Assyrian Empire would be surrounded on three sides, so it sent a large army to attack the enemy's flank.

The main battle took place in the city-state of Ludi in the Kingdom of Hati and the province of Elam in the Kingdom of Poz, where the Kingdom of Hati fought together with the Assyrian Empire and repelled the attack of the Kingdom of Poz, but the Kingdom of Potz still held the province of Elam.

The kingdom of Poz temporarily withdrew its troops and held on, the northern front did not succeed, and the losses of Hati and Assyria were not small, and they were unable to launch expeditionary operations in a short time, so they faced each other for several years. After that, Geret suggested that King Asher send another envoy to negotiate with the Assyrian Empire, so as to join forces again and take the initiative.

King Asher did not take this advice, and it was justified that he did not want to launch an expedition, and the kingdom of Hatti was able to repel the attack of the kingdom of Poz only after a great defeat and the Assyrian Empire had concentrated its forces and united the Assyrian Empire. The Poz kingdom was far east of Assyria, and even if the Hatti kingdom launched an expedition to win, it would be a cheap choice for the Assyrian Empire, and they would not be able to obtain actual benefits, but would only greatly deplete the already damaged national strength.

At this time, King Cyrus sent another large army under the command of Darius, the commander-in-chief of the battlefield and the general of the kingdom, to launch another campaign, this time targeting the Assyrian Empire.

The Assyrian Empire had captured six city-states of the former Barron Kingdom, and Potz and the Barron Kingdom launched an army at the same time, and the target of the attack was these six city-states. The kingdom of Baron was a mortal enemy of Assyria, and Marduk also sent an oracle ordering the kingdom of Barron to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a counterattack against Assyria. King Vonniu of Barron gathered his army to attack from the south to the north, while Darius led his army from east to west.

The Assyrian Empire was difficult to resist, and the front was too far from the kingdom of Hati to be able to join forces with Hati again. The Poz army was overwhelmed, and five of the six city-states were captured by Darius, and Barron took the opportunity to regain the city-state of Rees.

As can be seen from the results of this war, the combat effectiveness of the legions of the Assyrian Empire was far inferior to that of the Sinnakh period. When they expanded their territory, they slaughtered too much, the occupied territories suffered heavy losses, the people were forced to move into slavery, and the soldiers became new aristocrats, and their arrogance and innocence were lost, and they were unpopular.

Theoretically, the six city-states had already been formally ceded to the Assyrian Empire, and were no longer the territory of Baron, and whoever captured them was theirs, and King Vonniu sent troops just to take back as much as he could. However, Barron's army captured only one city-state, while the Poz army captured all five of the other city-states, which can also be seen in the difference in combat effectiveness between the two countries.

After conquering five city-states from the Assyrian Empire, the Kingdom of Potz established a new province. Cyrus pursued a militaristic policy similar to that of Sinach, maintaining the privileged position of all Pozes and making all adult Poz men warlike soldiers who obeyed the king's orders.

For the conquered areas, the Poz Kingdom established provinces and sent governors to administer them, retaining the status of the original local aristocratic group, and allowing them to continue to serve as administrators and rulers on behalf of the Poz Kingdom. The Potz Kingdom digests the occupied areas very quickly, and if the inhabitants of the new provinces join the army to fight abroad, they can also be rewarded for their military merits and become the new nobles of the occupied areas, from which the Potz Kingdom can continue to replenish the army.

After the establishment of a new province by the Kingdom of Poz, it made a request to the Kingdom of Baron, which wanted to cross the Eudyes River by marching through the southern front to attack the Kingdom of Hati, and its route of march was to pass through the city-state of Kish in the Kingdom of Baron.

King Vonniu of Barron knew in his heart that if the army of Potz crossed the Eudy River and defeated Hati, the kingdom of Barron would also face a cold situation, so he refused Potz's request to take advantage of the road. Cyrus sent an emissary to rebuke the kingdom of Barun - who, under the guidance of the oracle and with the help of the army of Poz, defeated their sworn enemy Assyria and recovered the city-state of Reis, without even borrowing a single road!

The kingdom of Poz used this as an excuse to send troops to capture the city-state of Kish, and Cyrus ordered Darius to lead his army to attack Hati again. While the Hati kingdom was still heavily armed in the city-state of Rudi to the north, the army of the Poz kingdom launched a surprise attack from the southern front.

King Asher thought that Darius would march from the southern shore of the inland lake and break through the city-states of Syria into the Hartian proper, so he moved the garrisons of Mesol and the city-states of Budamia to the south of the inland lake. Unexpectedly, Darius marched into the plain of Duc and captured the city-state of Budamia in the first battle.

King Asher urgently ordered the main force of the defenders to be transferred back to the north shore of the inland lake, but Darius suddenly killed the horse pistol, detoured to the south bank of the inland lake, blocked the ferry, defeated the defenders, and attacked the city-state of Syria.

King Asher was right in judging the direction of the main attack of the Poz army, but he made a mistake in the details of tactical command, and by the time Goret led the main force of the kingdom to help, the defeat was irreversible. The army of Potz broke through the city-state of Syria and entered the hinterland of the Hati kingdom with great momentum, approaching the royal capital. The main force of the Hati was routed, and most of the territory was occupied.

Darius, the commander-in-chief of the Poz army, sent a messenger to the king of Asher and the generals of the city-states who were still holding out, reading out Cyrus's national policy: as long as they surrendered, the Poz kingdom would retain their possessions and nobility, and divide the Hati kingdom into several provinces of Poz.

Several city-states surrendered, and the king of Asher prepared to surrender. If he did not surrender, he would have been defeated as a king, and if he surrendered, he would still be the largest nobleman in the Hatties, enjoying a large number of lands and slaves, and one of the rulers of the kingdom of Poz.

At this time, Goreth found King Asher, and the two had a long conversation. Goret told Asher that if he surrendered, the kingdom of Hatti would cease to exist, which was not the same as defeat or submission, but was completely annexed and disappeared.

Goreg did not surrender, and he asked King Asher to grant full powers, so that he could call on all those who did not want to surrender in Hatti to make a final resistance, and gather forces for a great battle. He said to King Asher, "If I win, then Hatties, and if I am defeated, surrender if you will." ”

The conquest launched by the Kingdom of Potz also means that Malduk is attacking the Anunnaqi gods, and this god wants to annex the entire Anunnaqi gods. The army of Potz captured the city-state of Kish in the Kingdom of Baron, and instead of destroying the temple of Malduk, the local soldiers, nobles, and priests were allowed to retain their original faith.

The common people did not know what was happening among the gods, let alone that Enriel had fallen and that Maldok had left the Anunnaqi lineage. In their opinion, it was just one main god that replaced another, so the resistance between the aristocratic forces and the clerical group was not strong.

But Goret should know the inside story, this great magician's faith has long since betrayed Enriel, so why make such a life-and-death choice? And even if the Hati Kingdom surrenders, with Goret's achievements and status, he himself will not be affected too much, and King Asher asked Goret a similar question.**
