Wendy blinked her long eyelashes, straightened up and said, "Excuse me, I will answer truthfully." ”

The aura around Amun's body was invisibly filled with the solemnity of the gods, but he still said with a smile on his face: "When you climb this tower, you will find that the gate of the gods is not what you imagined, but just a cage of life. But before you came, there must have been some longing besides awe, and if this is really the gate to the kingdom of God, what is your desire?"

Wendy's bright eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of sparkling mist, and she narrowed her eyes and recalled, "Of course I hope that the gods can take me to the kingdom of God to enjoy the happiness of the legendary separation from the world." Tell me, O gods, that mortals can enter the kingdom of that god in heaven, even after death. ”

A simple sentence stunned Amun, who was a god. Ever since he left Durk as a teenager, he has been solving the puzzle left to him by the old madman—can and how can man become a god?, and now he has the answer, because he himself has become a god and has proven the way.

But this answer can't solve Wendy's problem, and it can be seen that this pure and beautiful girl is not suitable for physical cultivation at all, and she is not a magician. It is already extremely difficult for people in the world to break through to high-level achievements, let alone become gods. As a god, Amun had never been to any kingdom of God, and it was impossible for mortals to leave this world and enter the immortal eternity.

But Wendy's words make Amon think about another question, which has to do with his vows and his experience in Hades. Is it possible to create a world to become the destination of the soul, a short moment seems to be eternal, there is the heaven of dreams or the hell of the heart? The people there are not gods, but souls after death, who cannot freely enter and exit the immortal eternity, and who arrive there in the instant eternity after death, and may be able to leave again.

Amon thought of so much in a flash, and said to Wendy with a pleasant face: "I am also thinking about the question you asked, and I hope to be able to answer it in the future." As for now, I'm here to meet another deity, so please go out first and close the door, and when I leave, I'll help you leave the gate of the gods and go where you want to go on earth. ”

...... Wendy walked out of Malduk's dormitory and closed the door, and the palace maids on duty in the outer hall were startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord Saint, what happened, how can you come out!"

Although Wendy had been serving Maldok every day for three years and had never seen the deity appear, she had to lie in bed for enough time according to the prescribed ritual. She came out before the time was up, this was an event that had never happened in the Gate of the Gods, and the palace maids were shocked.

Wendy suppressed her excitement and said as calmly as possible, "The gods want to meet another god here, and they don't want to be disturbed. ”

I saw that the palace maids covered their chests in unison, all of them became petrified, and after a while, they knelt down together towards the gate of the inner hall, and someone shouted: "Holy Maiden, according to the ancient ritual, when the gods come, they must ring the bell on the top of the tower!"

Wendy was stunned and hesitated, but then showed a very majestic expression, this was the first time in three years that she spoke in the voice of the Barron Holy Maiden: "The gods have said that you are not allowed to disturb, even if it is a ceremony prescribed by the kingdom!"

After all, the bell on the Tower of Balun did not ring, but the maidens rushed to the outside of the palace and descended the tower to report to the priests the news of the arrival of the gods.

...... Amon watched Wendy walk out of the dormitory around the screen and close the door, when he suddenly sensed it, and turned his head to see Malduk sitting in another chair looking at him with a smile. Seeing Amon turn his head, Marduk said in a playful tone: "I don't know how hello you are, the kidnappers came to me?"

Amon sighed, "Why do you bother to do this, so why do you bother to do this, so why do you bother to do this, but she is not really regarded as a human being, but only a gift that will never be accepted?"

Marduk shook his head and said, "I didn't do it, it was the kings and priests of Baron. ”

Amon also shook his head and said, "But all this happened right under your nose, why did you let so many beautiful youths be imprisoned here for hundreds of years?"

The corners of Malduk's mouth curled slightly: "This is the sacrifice of the world, to express their faith, as the main god of the kingdom, I should allow them to choose their own way." If you like that girl, just take it away, except for Goddess Mu Yun, who may be a little unhappy, no other god will care about this matter. ”

Amun then said, "Since you have not stopped this form of sacrifice in the kingdom of Baron, they are the ones who have come to serve you, at least ......"

Maldok suddenly burst out laughing, and interrupted Amun's words with a smile and asked, "God Amon, are you a man?"

Amon was stunned: "Of course I am." ”

Marduk: "What you just said, your thoughts are still limited by the age of the world, and I am a person who has long been detached, or I have transcended the age of the tower, I think men and women are equal, what about you?"

Amon frowned: "I think so too, but what do you mean by that?"

Malduk put his hands on the back of the chair and lifted Erlang's legs, shook his toes and said unhurriedly: "If there is a beautiful woman, all the men in the world hope to be happy with such a woman." So they elected a man and let him sleep with this woman, do you think this woman needs to agree?"

Amon replied, "Of course it doesn't make sense, it's ridiculous!"

Malduk patted the back of his chair and said, "Isn't that what this is! A handsome, strong, and charming man like me, can people take advantage of me if they choose an irrelevant woman to come out? Of course I can not even see him! If you think that men and women are equal, you should naturally think so." ”

Rao is Amon has always been unsmiling, and he couldn't help but be amused by Malduk at the moment, and only after laughing did he ask, "What will you do after I take Wendy away?"

Marduk put away his smile and said lightly: "I won't do anything, the Kingdom of Baron will choose another holy woman to send here to complete their ritual." ”

Amon was about to continue, but Maldok suddenly beckoned, he heard the prayers of countless people, saw their images, those who were struggling on the brink of suffering, slavery, and life and death prayed to Malduk, and many people were looking forward to Wendy's life in the Gate of the Gods—luxurious palaces, hordes of servants, the best food and clothing in the world automatically delivered to him, never to worry or toil.

Maldok pursed his lips again and said, "You said that the Gate of the Gods is Wendy's cage of fate, but the human world under this tower is a cage for countless people. Wendy wanted to leave, but too many people thought about her cage, and then there was another thought. As a god, you can't save everyone, so if possible, consider the bigger cage. ...... You didn't come to the Gate of the Gods for Wendy, let's get down to business. How to kill Enriel, do you already have a plan?"

Amun replied, "If I had no plan, I would not have come to you at the gate of the gods. Enriel will be waiting for me to show up, where do you think he will send someone to check on my movements at any time?"

Marduk looked at Amun and asked, "You were injured by the combined force of the Flame God and the Ash God, and your strength has been figured out by Enriel, looking at your appearance, it seems that your mana has not recovered yet?"

Amon nodded: "Yes, I need to find the most suitable place for cultivation in the human world, and it must be absolutely safe." ”

Mardok asked again: "You haven't received any guidance from the divine system, so naturally you won't go to the kingdom of God, but you should have a divine palace in the world, right?"

Amon nodded again and said, "Yes, I have a shrine called the Garden of Eden, but it has not been completely built yet. ”

Malduk's smile was a little mysterious: "Then your best place to recuperate is Mu Yun Shrine." ”

Amon also smiled: "So I know where Enriel will be waiting for me, as soon as I appear, he will naturally find out my whereabouts." ”

Marduk added: "Once he makes a move, he won't give anyone else a chance to save you, and the way you are now is a bit worrying, and I am afraid that you will not be able to fully recover your strength." ”

Amon pointed around and said, "That's why I came to the Gate of the Gods, not just to see you. I have to say that this tower is very well repaired, this is the most suitable place in the world for gods to recuperate, and it is also the most suitable for me to cultivate and restore my strength, and it is very safe. ”

Marduk laughed again: "Amon, you really will take advantage of me, the Holy Maiden of Baron has been abducted, and even the palace has to be borrowed." ”

Amon said with a straight face: "You can refuse." ”

Marduk's figure slowly vanished, and laughter still echoed in the dormitory: "How could I refuse, it seems that my contribution is too little compared to the risk you took to lure Enriel into making a move." You can regain your strength here, and to thank you for your success in assassinating Sinaher, I can give you a choice, either take Wendy away or make another request to me. ”

Amon replied lightly, "There is no need to make another request, I have already promised Wendy that I will take her away." ”

...... Something great had happened, something great! The gods had come down to the palace of the gods' gates, and they lived there! For the first time, the palace built by the kings of the Barrons to serve the god Marduk had its original purpose. No one had ever seen the gods except Wendy, the Holy Maiden of Barron, but some had heard the voices of the gods in their souls, and the gods were to dwell in the Gates of the Gods for a while, not wanting to be disturbed or the news leaking out.

Due to the oracle sent down by the gods, ordinary people naturally did not know the news, but they were very curious about why the Marduk temple under the Tower of Babel continued to carry various sacrificial ceremonies, and the high-ranking officials and priests of the kingdom climbed the Tower of Babel one after another. The powerful men climbed the tower, but they could not enter the palace, but could only worship and pray outside the palace.

All the life of the gods in the inner sanctum was taken care of by Wendy, the holy daughter of Baron, and the palace maidens could only serve in the outer sanctuary, and every word conveyed by Wendy was treated as if it were an oracle. Everyone thought that the god Malduk had descended, and only a few people in the kingdom knew that it was the god Amun.

Amon was sent by Prince Vonniu, but His Royal Highness did not expect that this god would occupy the palace and the Barron Holy Maiden, so he swaggered to live on the Tower of Babel, and the god Marduk did not seem to send an oracle to object, and Prince Vonniu had to keep silent.

Amon has lived in the Gate of the Gods for many months, and no one has bothered him with his peace of mind, and Wendy is taking care of his daily life, in fact, Amon doesn't need her to take care of anything, but it is at least a lot more convenient to have such a person by his side. Amon also tells Wendy the truth - he is not Marduk, but the god Amon.

When Wendy learned the truth, she was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly fell down at Amun's feet, hugged his legs, and cried loudly. The High Priest of the Kingdom had recently performed a prayer ceremony in the hall of the front hall of the Gate of the Gods, which was traditionally presided over by Wendy, the Holy Daughter of Baron, who had also heard the latest news that the god Amun had punished and that the Assyrian Emperor Sinach would soon die.

The prayer of the High Priest of Barron was different from the proclamation issued by the Assyrian Empire, and of course it was a favorite word of the gods, and it was closer to the truth.

The Assyrian Emperor Sinach destroyed Wendy's hometown of the city-state of Rees, and the god Amun's "punishment" of Sinach was tantamount to avenging Wendy. The god in front of him is the most grateful god Amun in his heart, how can Wendy not be excited?

Amon picked Wendy up and asked, "I heard that I'm not Marduk, why are you crying so sadly?"

Wendy had forgotten her fear of the gods at this moment, and she didn't even think about whether she was rude, so she simply hugged Amon and whined on his chest and cried: "It's you, it was you who assassinated the tyrant Sinakh, I will be forever grateful to you in this life, no matter what I do, I can't repay you!"

Although she cried loudly, Wendy was more overjoyed, if she had known that a god would descend on the gate of the gods, she would have preferred Amon to Marduk. Ever since Amon lived here, Wendy had come back to life, as if her soul had awakened and she was no longer a beautiful shell. She remained at the top of the tower and couldn't go out, but she felt completely different, full of the girl's moving youthful atmosphere.

Although Amon didn't deliberately explain anything, Wendy didn't reveal to anyone that the god in the inner sanctum was not Malduk, but Amon. Anyway, everyone thinks Malduk, so think so, even Marduk himself did not show up to oppose it, what else is necessary for others to say?

Prince Von-Nut had always been aware of this, and King Hammurabi II of Barron had learned the inside story from Prince Von-New. One day, three months later, Wendy walked into the inner sanctum and told Amon that Prince Fonniu and the high priest of the kingdom were outside the palace asking the gods to see the king. His Majesty was supposed to be here in person, but he was already seriously ill and bedridden, so he specially presented the most precious gift of the kingdom and asked the gods to bless him in person.

During this time, Amon lived in the Gate of the Gods as a god, and in addition to concentrating on cultivation to restore his strength, he also had other gains, and he received various heavy gifts from the high-ranking and powerful adults of the Barun Kingdom, which added up to a staggering amount of wealth. He couldn't do without these gifts, and if Wendy went out to convey his words and said no, it would scare those people into a cold sweat and even want to jump off the tower.

In addition to a lot of luxurious utensils and treasures, these gifts are a large number of special divine stones. Don't look at the great decline in the national power after the defeat of the Kingdom of Barun, but the wealth of these nobles in the country has not been affected much, and many people are quite generous, and the gifts offered to the gods are naturally the most precious, not ordinary hearts.

Amon was short of money, and it was useless for him to ask for money, but it was very important to the present city-state of Salem. In recent years, the construction and conquest of Mu Yun's treasure have long been exhausted, although the city of Salem also has material production, but the current output is far less fast than the consumption of war and construction, and the city-state's finances have been embarrassed to the edge of exhaustion. Just take this money back to Aesop, and solve the urgent needs of Salem - Amon has really made a lot of money here in Marduk!

Since he had received such a large fortune from the Kingdom of Barun, and the gift from the king was the most valuable among them, Amon was sorry not to even give him a little face. And listening to Wendy's relay to Prince Vonniu, Hammurabi II knew that he was the god Amun and not Malduk, but he still desperately wanted to see this god!

Amon told Wendy to tell Vonniu outside the temple to park a carriage under the tower and not to alarm the others, he would appear directly in the carriage. That evening, Prince Vonniu's guards drove away from the Tower of Baroton in his chariot, followed by the chariots and guards of the High Priest of the Kingdom. The idlers and others retreated and saluted, and the carriage Amon rode directly into the palace, and did not stop and dismount even when he entered the palace gate, which is what a courtesy that only distinguished guests have!

Amon asked Vonniu in the car, "Why does your uncle ask me so urgently to see me, knowing that I am not Marduk, and not the main god of his kingdom?"

Feng Nu sighed and said, "A king wants to see the gods when he is seriously ill and dying, do you think there will be anything else?"

This sentence broke the mentality of many emperors in their later years since ancient times, they have all the glory of the world, and they can use power and wealth to realize various wishes, but there is a ** that can never be satisfied, that is, when the end of life comes, they will also die like those humble pariahs.

At this time, they prayed to the gods, often for the cure for immortality, and the seriously ill emperor hoped that the gods would use their divine powers to help them come back to life. If none of this can be done, their prayer will not change, but it will take a different form, praying that they will still enjoy everything they had in life after death and continue to be kings in another world.

Hammurabi II, who was seriously ill, prayed to Malduk, but could not hear the sound of the gods, and when he realized that the fire of his life was about to be extinguished, he heard that the god Amun had descended on the gate of the gods, like a drowning man grasping at a life-saving straw. No matter what the price is, he also asks to see this god who has appeared in the world, and it doesn't matter if this god is what he believes in at this moment!
