Shepherding Humanity - Chapter 16

[Chapter 15 Obstacles to Civilization]

The last time he was going to kill his son, is he going to kill me this time?

Xu Zhi’s face was a little complicated and surprised, but calmed down. It seemed bold, but it was a matter of course.

He looked at this Gilgamesh, known as the King of Heroes, who was on the verge of death last time. After his rebirth, he brutally killed his dear son with his own hands. At this moment, he was on the verge of death. Like a treasure, he swings his sword.

Perhaps from the beginning, Xu Zhi should have thought about what it would mean for him to choose a brave young worm who dared to roar and ask questions at the vast giant among the shivering worms.

He was fearless, and of course he swung his sword at himself.

It’s his character.

Xu Zhi said calmly: “Gilgamesh, I warn you one last time, please stop your brutality. This is barbarism, not civilization. Your next move will pay a heavy price in the world for your choice!”

“There’s no cost, more than death.”

Gilgamesh slowly opened his bright red eyes, as if he had returned to a young age, revealing the passion and madness he had not seen in his youth, “Today, I will kill the behemoth of wisdom, steal his civilization, and seize his power. , to achieve immortality in the true sense.”

His muscles were knotted all over his body, his snow-white skin was like a god in Norse mythology, and he let out a strong roar,

“I want to lead my people and challenge you!”

He raised his long sword high, and the wind blew his silver-white messy hair, arrogant and wanton, “This is the first collision of civilization and civilization, a civilization of wisdom, challenging another unique beast of wisdom… .The beast of wisdom, even if you once guided our civilization, but now you are blocking our footsteps.”

clang!

clang!

clang!

!

The dull and distant stone bell rang slowly, and the entire Uruk King City was boiling.

Hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in the entire city, rushing out in a dense manner, forming a dense and neat array.

Xu Zhi looked at this scene and sighed, “As early as when I didn’t know, more than ten years ago, Gilgamesh was ready to attack the behemoth of wisdom, and all the people were soldiers… Today , but to lead me here, if I don’t agree to his conditions, he will bring someone to kill me.”

Brave and resourceful, from this perspective, he is indeed a great tyrant.

…..

Mesopotamia plain, Ur plain giant city.

Ishtar stood calmly in front of the palace, even if they were far apart, she could still see the towering giant, whose face pierced through the clouds with a white and holy brilliance.

“What a gigantic perfect life this is.”

Ishtar was shocked, but her pupils shrank slightly, “It’s time to do it, if it wasn’t to find a helper, with the dictatorship and arrogance of His Majesty Gilgamesh, how could it be possible to give the precious blood of power to others? He From the beginning it was for this moment, to find other helpers.”

Tread!

She jumped lightly, turned over and mounted the behemoth of Allah, put on a black felt hat, and wielded a black stone hammer made of the bones of the behemoth.

“Mother!”

There are countless men and women on the plains who hesitate to speak.

“Zarn, are you still alive?” Ishtar suddenly turned her head.

A young man showed a bitter look, “Father, already lying on the hospital bed, about to die of old age…”

“Son, wait for Ishdar, the king of the grasslands, to come back to extend your life!”

Ishtar flashed a sadness, looked at the giant towering in the distance, and desperately said, “I’m not Gilgamesh, I can kill my own son with my own hands, I can’t stand my son, grandson, death of old age one by one. In front of my eyes, I want to get more blood of power, even the blood of wise beasts, that may be the blood of immortality…”

“Go out.

”

She slapped the behemoth Ara under her suddenly, revealing the bravery and courage of a steppe barbarian, and set off with the most elite barbarian cavalry army.

…..

The sacred tree near the royal capital.

This vast ancient tree that once pierced the sky and used to test three treasures of civilization has been abandoned for a long time. At this moment, a giant forest city of Enkidu was built on the tree, prosperous and prosperous.

Tall Tree House, on a tree trunk on the outside balcony.

Leaning on a wooden cane, En Qidu quietly watched the shocking picture of the terrifying giant thrusting into the sky in the distance, with several disciples standing quietly behind him.

“Teacher, it’s time to go, I promised the king…”

Someone whispered a reminder behind him.

“No, we resist the decree, we choose to do nothing in the giant forest city of Enkidu.” Enkidu sighed, even if he looked at the king city from a long distance, the terrifying power of the giant was overwhelming his heart. Come.

“Is the teacher afraid?” An upright disciple couldn’t help but ask: “Three king cities, the three most powerful kings of Sumer join forces, even the legendary beasts of wisdom may not be able to… ”

“No, it’s not the fear, I’m not afraid of death, but the fear of throwing away something more important than life.” Enkidu said softly: “My civilization and wisdom make me unable to slaughter and give gifts like a brutal beast. Our civilization, the intelligent beast that saves our race, without grace and morality, will be no different from beasts… My disciples, tell me! Are we going to be reduced to savages?”

The disciples were silent.

Their teacher, one of the three strongest leaders of the royal city, accepted the blood of power and survived the great forest hero king, but…

“I am beyond forgiveness, I cut off my head.”

Enkidu looked at Utanapizm, the most capable disciple next to him, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com

“If His Majesty the King wins and carries my head to the palace, I am guilty of resisting the decree. With His Majesty’s dictatorship and tyranny, I will surely die. This is all my own idea. .”

“If the behemoth of wisdom wins, then take my head to the behemoth of wisdom, ask the great giant to forgive, and let the beast of wisdom know that we still have the true inheritors of civilization, not pure barbarism, please don’t Completely exterminate our species, leaving a silver lining.”

“teacher…”

The most trusted disciple next to him, Utana Pizm, silently watched this great Sumerian wise man.

His heart sank, and blood bloomed.

puff!

He cut off the head of his mentor.

One of the strongest heroes of Sumerian civilization, Enkidu, the king of the forest, died without resistance.

Looking at the calm and familiar face on his teacher’s head, he silently wrapped it in animal skins, Uta’s Pizim suddenly felt a sour heart, vaguely, he knew that there was something incomparably important in life, and it slowly shattered.

……

The sky is shaking.

“volley!”

Countless black and red bows and spears, like sharp thorns, pierced into the dense sky and mist, and shot at the terrifying beast of wisdom.

The earth was howling, the earth shook, and countless elite soldiers like ants rushed to the soles of the shoes. The countless stone houses in the city collapsed, one after another, like a toy fortress built with building blocks, constantly collapsing.

Civilians and women were fleeing, screaming, weeping, frantic roars, dying roars, explosions, beast roars, wild laughter, and countless sounds intertwined.

The most powerful city of Uruk was completely reduced to a bloody battlefield.
