Amon was silent for a long time, and many thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment, and finally nodded: "Of course I think, after all, it is my hometown, but now that I am the only one left in Duke Town, what is the point of doing this?"

Yin Nanna's arms tightened: "Of course it makes sense, it means to you and me, it is the land of Duke Town, and it is also my divine domain, you can establish a kingdom and become a king, our children and grandchildren will pass it on from generation to generation, and I will become the main god of the kingdom." ...... You're not alone, there are still survivors of Duk who are far away, and it's up to you to lead them back to their homeland and establish their own homeland. ”

Amon was surprised and delighted, "I'm not the only survivor of Duk, who else is alive, my father and Mayor Dusty?"

Yin Nanna: "All the people in the town at that time died, and your father and the mayor were not spared. But there is also a group of survivors who are now exiled into slavery, and if you want to lead them back to their homeland and establish their homeland, I will guide you on how to find them and how to do it. ...... I have a pact with Enriel that as long as you don't challenge him, he won't hurt you anymore and won't prevent you from returning home, which is what I can do as a protector. ”

Amun: "Challenge Enriel?" Of course, he doesn't have the ability to challenge the gods, at least not yet, but maybe in the future. The old madman gave him the mission to unlock the secrets of the gods, find a way to become a god, and even become a god himself. -- Of course, it is impossible to say these words.

Yin Nanna smiled: "So you don't have to worry about this, all you have to do is to lead the descendants of Duke Town to return home and establish your own eternal kingdom, the gods will not directly intervene in these things, everything has to be done by yourself, but I can give you guidance and help." ”

Amon: "Can you tell me where they are now? I'm going to find them." ”

Yin Nanna shook her head slightly: "No, it's useless to tell you now, unless I see that you can do it and are working hard to achieve this ideal." ...... I heard that you have a good relationship with the troglodyte horde, and I know that you have been there for a long time, so you can actually do the same as Princess Xiaoqian, guide the troglodyte horde tribe to move out of the mountains and establish a village, first gain a foothold, train and arm them to protect their homeland. ”

Amon frowned: "Will they be willing?"

Yin Nanna giggled: "You are very smart, but sometimes you are silly and cute! There is abundant fertile soil, who would want to continue to live in the treacherous mountains, they will only appreciate your help and guidance." ”

Amon asked again, "But the Plateau Giant Tribe has already gone, won't there be a conflict?"

"It's a fertile land, and a few tribes are like drops in the ocean, so you can choose where you want to stand, and you don't have to fight for one place," Yin explained. At present, it is still a Jedi surrounded by swamps, and the only way to reach the small outcropping islands can be reached from the direction of the Youngbottom Valley.

The wild people in the deep mountains came out of the wilderness and came to the plains, which will not attract anyone's attention for the time being, and it is the best time to establish a home first, otherwise Princess Xiaoqian will not let the plateau giants do that. I can also tell you that the surviving descendants of Duk Town will retain their original title deeds and will be the rightful owners of the most fertile tracts of land. ”

Amon groaned and continued to ask, "You said that the current terrain is still slowly changing, and it will take a thousand miles of fertile land to become a thousand miles of fertile land?"

Yin Nanna: "At least three years later. ”

Amon: "How long will it take for the original site of Duk Town to emerge from the water and become habitable?"

Yin Nanna: "One year. ”

Amon finally nodded: "Then the troglodyte savage tribe will have at least two years to build a new home, their life in the mountains is indeed quite difficult, I should help them, thank you for your advice, in a year I will guide the troglodyte horde tribe out of the deep mountains, first to settle in the area of Duke Town." ”

Yin Nanna smiled happily: "Okay, I'm waiting for your news, you have to guide them to build the temple of the guardian god." ”

Amun: "I will tell them what happened and I believe they will make the right choice, but I think the devotion to the gods must come from the heart, and no one can force it." ”

Yin Nanna tilted her head and looked at Amon with a very special look: "Why are you saying this to me?"

Amon replied honestly, "That's what I thought in my heart, you just told me that as a god, I could see if I was lying, and I should have told you the truth. ...... This is something I figured out after I met Gilgamesh, because of the Humbaba thing. ”

Yin Nanna looked at him, her eyes seemed to want to penetrate his heart, and after a while, she smiled coquettishly: "My little Amon, this time you mistakenly thought that I was Princess Xiaoqian, and came to the Giant Tribe to save me, I should thank you." I'll tell you the whereabouts of the surviving people of Duk Town later, but there's another request you can make to me now, and I won't refuse if I can do it. ”

Amon turned his head to look at her and asked seriously, "Really?"

Yin Nanna: "Of course it's true, I'm your patron saint. ”

Amon: "I want to ask you about the secrets of the gods, whether mortals can become gods, and if so, how?"

Yin Nanna let go of her hand, took a step back and said, "Oh my God, Amon, you are so bold! Gilgamesh asked the same question, but he didn't get an answer, this is not okay!"

Listening to her tone, I don't know if it was a mortal who "cannot" become a god or if she "cannot" tell Amun. Amon didn't expect to get an answer from Yin Nanna, so he added: "Then I only ask you for another thing, I have heard that people go to Hades after death, and I also want to see my father and the townspeople who died in Duketown, even if it is only the souls after death. ”

Amun's primary concern was these two things, his duty and commitment to unlock the secrets of the gods, and his deepest desire to see his father again. A teenager who left his hometown suddenly heard that his hometown was destroyed by a disaster, and he did not see his relatives for the last time, which was the biggest regret and pain in his heart. If he could make a request to the gods, how could he not open his mouth?

Yin Nanna's face changed, and she finally lost her smile and looked at Amon without speaking for a long time.

Amon took a few steps back, knelt down again, and said, "My patron saint, the former and current patron deities of Duke Town, can you do what I request?"

Yin Nanna stood up straight, her skirt drooped, and her tone changed, she was a majestic deity: "Not everyone will enter the underworld after death, and the so-called underworld is not what mortals imagine. I do know where the souls of many of the residents of Duc Town belong. But I advise you to change your mind, it's not a place you can go, and you probably won't be able to come back. ”

Amon asked, "Can you do it?"

Yin Nanna nodded expressionlessly: "Yes, I can do it." ”

Amon continued: "There are many things that I don't know if I can accomplish, such as when you ask me to lead the descendants of Duke Town back to my hometown to rebuild my homeland, I can only do my best. But this is my most urgent wish now, may I ask the guardian spirit, it is very likely that he will not be able to come back, but it is also possible that he will be able to come back?"

Yin Nanna: "Yes, it is possible that you will not be able to come back, and it is possible that you can come back." If you want me to help you come back, that's another request. ”

Amon: "I don't dare to make additional requests to the gods, but if you are really the patron saint of the people of Duk, let me enter the underworld to meet my father, Mayor Dusty, and others." If you can protect my return to the earth, I will do everything in my power to rebuild Duk Town as a new home and even a kingdom, and guide my people to rebuild your temple and offer sacrifices to you as your eternal patron saint. ”

Yin Nanna was silent for a long time, as if she was thinking about something, she looked a little hesitant, and Amon fell to her knees speechlessly, waiting for the god's answer. After a long time, Yin Nanna finally sighed and said: "The so-called Hades is in the world, I will send you there, as for whether the person you want to see is there, I am not sure." ...... I'll try to bring you back as much as I can, and if you're unfortunate enough to fall into it, you can find a way out of it yourself. ”

Amon leaned down and kissed the dirt under Yin Nanna's feet and said, "Thank you for the grace of the gods!

Yin Nanna: "I'm going to make some preparations, I'll be waiting for you here in three days, and you can come back in three days." By the time Amon looked up again, the goddess had disappeared.

...... That night, Medanzo was excitedly packing up, in fact, there was nothing to pack, but he wiped and wiped his weapons and armor, shining in the light, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became, because tomorrow he would follow Princess Xiaoqian back to the royal capital. He still remembered how he had left his hometown in a lost way, but he never expected to return in such a glorious way!

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone behind me say: "This armor has been blessed by divine magic, and it can shake off all the dust with a flick, so you don't need to wipe it like this!"

If it were someone else's voice, Medanzo would have pulled out his weapon and jumped up, but at this time, he turned around in surprise and said, "My god Amun, why are you back again?"

Amon pointed to the stool next to him: "Sit down and talk slowly, I forgot one thing and need to come back to explain, and I heard another thing and need to make it clear to you." ”

After Amon sat down first, Medanzo sat down and asked, "What did you forget that you didn't explain?"

Amon: "The car and the two horses were not mine, they were lent to me by a merchant named Lescott Lee in the city-state of Uruk, and I will return them to him." ”

Medanzo: "You can take it away this time, I will go to the town to buy a real war horse, although the horse pulling the cart is good, it is not a knight's war horse." ”

Amon waved his hand and said, "Leave all the carriages and horses at the inn when you leave, pay enough money for them to take care of, and I'll come back to get them." ”

Medanzo: "No problem, what else do you want to clarify with me?"

Amon's expression became serious: "The matter of the carriage is only mentioned in passing, there is another important thing that you must pay attention to." I heard you tell you about the summons of the princess yesterday, and she specifically asked you if you are on good terms with the troglodyte tribe, and may send you on a mission, as you did with Yusir. ”

Then he knelt down and whispered to Medanzo for a long time. Medanzo's expression became more and more stunned, and he nodded again and again, and after Amon finished speaking, he patted him on the shoulder and said: "This is just my guess, if Her Royal Highness the princess really ordered you to do this, I don't think you can refuse, but this involves a matter of gods, you must not say big words and promise anything." ”

Medanzo let out a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "O god Amun, thanks to your reminder, if this happens, I know what to do." After thinking about it, he smiled again, lowered his voice and whispered: "If you really let Link's tribe build a village and build a temple, they will not worship any other gods, you are the only god!"

Amon gave him a punch lightly: "This kind of thing, you just think about it in your heart, you can't just talk nonsense." ”

Medanzo stuck out his tongue: "Of course I understand this, you can rest assured." ”

Amon: "Understand, we'll see you in Link's tribe in a year's time." Whether or not Princess Akane asks you to do this, I will guide them to the fertile soil of the swamp to establish a home. In three years' time, I will lead the descendants of Duke Town back to my hometown, and the fertile soil will be large enough for hundreds of thousands of people to live in. But for now it's all a secret, and you don't give it to anyone, and don't let anyone know that you already know. ”

Medanzo nodded very seriously and said, "God Amun, I remember it, and I will definitely do what you say." ”

...... Three days later, Amon came to that plateau again, Yin Nanna was already waiting for him here, no, it should be said that Goddess Mu Yun was waiting for him, because she was completely in the form of a god today.

It's still the long golden dress, and her figure is still so moving, but the dress shines in the sun, as if it is condensed by flowing metal. She wore a gold crown in the shape of a garland of gold thread, a staff in her hand that looked like an ivy with emerald green leaves, an lapis lazuli necklace on her chest, the finest lapis lazuli ever produced in Duketown, earrings on her earlobes that looked like shining stars, a pair of golden bracelets on her arms like lotus roots, and a golden flower pinned to her towering chest and the chest of her long skirt.

This is how Amon saw her statue in the temple since she was a child, but the cold lapis lazuli statue was not as radiant as a living goddess. He saluted her and said, "Great Goddess Mu Yun, thank you for granting my request, I am ready to follow you to the underworld. ”

Goddess Mu Yun looked at him and shook her head gently: "No need to say thank you, this is just to thank you for saving me, because no one has done that." ...... I'm not sure I'll be able to bring you back from Hades on the spot, so please be mentally prepared, if you fall into Hades, don't eat anything there, don't drink a sip of water, and protect your soul to have any hope of getting out of trouble. ...... See you again in the sun in the future, you still call me Yin Nanna, I like the name. ”

Mu Yun asked Amon to get up and follow her, not asking any questions along the way. The direction they walked was actually to the depths of the Syrian Plateau, in the direction of the source of the Eudi River, and the lofty mountains were full of rugged and dangerous obstacles. With her divine power, she could have carried Amon to float or fly quickly, but she didn't, but let Amon follow and walk by herself, as if she was deliberately testing him.

Hiking through the mountains, Amon is better than a great magician, and if he really wants to change a great magician or a great magician, I'm afraid he will fly over directly, but Amon can't fly yet, only honestly walking. He found that no matter how fast he walked, Yin Nanna was walking a few steps away unhurriedly, but she could never catch up.

There was no stop, no rest, and the goddess did not turn back to say a word, from noon to evening, from night to early morning, from early morning to dusk the next day, ....... If you change a person, you may have been tired and lying down for a long time, and even if you don't lie down, you may fall off the cliff if you are not careful. Amon didn't have time to stop to eat along the way, and the water droplets in the water elemental magic condensation environment directly quenched his thirst, and he didn't fall a single step after following the footsteps of the goddess.

When night fell again, Goddess Mu Yun finally spoke: "Amon, this road is very difficult, I am surprised that you have been able to persevere until now, but we have to walk like this for three days and three nights, you can give up at any time." Although I promised to take you to Hades, I also wanted you to be able to walk to the gate of Hades by yourself, and if you really can't hold on, I won't blame you. If you accidentally fall off a cliff, I will save your life, and I will repay you for saving you. ”

It seems that the goddess was reluctant to take Amun into Hades, but she had to agree to this request, but she tested him in this way. If Amon couldn't follow her to the gate of Hades, then it was no wonder that Goddess Mu Yun didn't keep her promise. The speed at which she was moving was exactly what Amon was able to keep up with with all his might, but it would be too exaggerated to say that she had been moving forward for three days and three nights!

Amon replied with a cane, "I understand what you mean, and I will try my best to follow you, and I will not give up." ”

Goddess Mu Yun stopped talking, and the two of them just kept walking forward, without stopping, without a moment of rest, the speed did not change, but the road became more and more dangerous, but it happened to be something that Amon could climb, and there was no need to fly. Amon gritted his teeth and followed, unable to catch up with the goddess but not a step behind.

On the third day, they came to a strange and desolate plateau, no longer surrounded by verdant colours, but full of bare rough rocks, low and sparse bushes, with occasional traces of snow, and the wind was so cold that it blew like a knife on the face.

Crossing this cold plateau, the goddess Mu Yun went down again, into a long and deep narrow valley, the deeper and deeper the air became more and more humid, on both sides of the steep cliffs, the valley became narrower and narrower, the light became darker and darker, and there was an inexplicable gloomy atmosphere around it. Although it was no longer as cold as it was on the plateau, Amon felt that he couldn't help but fight.

The terrain is getting lower and lower, the cliffs on both sides are getting higher and higher, and the glimmer of sky that can be seen when you look up is getting narrower and farther away. The cliffs on the left and right finally closed together strangely somewhere, forming a huge eerie cavern in front of them. Yin Nanna finally stood still, turned around and said, "Amon, you can actually come here, there is the entrance to the underworld in front of you, are you ready?"
