Chapter 1008: Can the extinction crisis be resolved after waiting?
If it wasn’t for Wu Ming, everyone wouldn’t be able to react.
Because of Goddess Tiamat, after the Gorgons left the stage, everyone ignored Ereshkigal, the last figure of the Three Goddess Alliance.
“When did you go see Ereshkigal?” Ishtar calmed down, as if she was slightly dissatisfied with Ereshkigal.
“The exit of the Gorgons is my and Ereshkigal’s handwriting.”
With Wu Ming, everyone understood why the Gorgons left the stage in confusion on the north wall. It turned out to be because the two Sumerian gods teamed up to target the Gorgons.
“But Ereshkigal must be restricted by the Three Goddess Alliance.” said Quetzalcoatl suddenly.
Then Wu Ming nodded.
“That’s right, because of this, almost all of Ereshkigal’s divinity has disappeared, and the entire spiritual base can only be forcibly defended by the underworld now, and has no fighting power.”
The meaning of Wu Ming’s words was to tell everyone that Ereshkigal had lost his threat, and there was no need to treat the other party as an enemy.
“Those who died ruthlessly have also been resurrected. It must be Ereshkigal who released their souls.” Gilgamesh also interrupted, and did something to get Ereshkigal to stand by the humans.
“Really, how can that person go to such great lengths.” Ishtar complained proudly, but she was clearly worried about Ereshkigal.
Seeing the insincere Ishtar, Wu Ming couldn’t help but smile.
“But don’t worry, I’ve passed all my divinity to Ereshkigal, now she’s fine, and I’m on good terms with her too, I could ask her for help, and she agreed.”
Ishtar was taken aback, and her arms couldn’t help but loosen up.
However before she could make a sound of surprise, someone came out first.
“You gave all your divinity to Ereshkigal?!” exclaimed Roman through the projection.
“But how is this possible? I have never heard of divinity being conferred!”
“It’s just a mere divinity, this king also wants to give divinity to others. Unfortunately, as the king that separates humans and gods, this king must have some divinity.” Gilgamesh opened his mouth and closed Roman’s mouth.
The implication is that it is not impossible to bring out divinity.
Indeed, no god has ever been able to exorcise divinity, and no Magus has ever proven whether a god can exorcise divinity.
“Nothing doesn’t mean “can’t”
“Why do I feel you are weird now.” Said Quetzalcoatl too.
Perhaps because of the loss of all divinity and Tiamat’s crisis, Quetzalcoatl didn’t notice the divinity of Wu Ming.
Merlin and Anna also looked at Wu Ming more, only Gudako and Mashu did not understand the flow of the conversation.
“That… is it difficult to send a divinity?”
To Gudako, things like divinity were inexplicable, like consumables.
In fact, Gudako is also right, isn’t Ereshkigal just using divinity to suppress the Gorgons?
“It’s very difficult to explain. Well, you can understand that ‘divinity’ is the same as ‘human’.” Ishtar’s metaphor made Gudako and Mashu nod.
“But Ishtar isn’t accurate. After all, our divinity belongs to the ‘mystery’ side. Our divinity can still be expelled. Maybe in your eyes, ‘humans’ can’t be sent, but our divinity can actually be taken out, but it’s quite troublesome, and doesn’t need too much detail, you just need to remember that it’s hard to send a divinity, and if it’s wrong, you may not be able to get it back.”
“Ahem, Goddess Tiamat is awake, but there is no movement for now. That Laḫmu and Kulullû can’t enter Uruk anymore, we’re safe now.” Wu Ming said after the topic brought everyone back to the theme.
“The fact that Goddess Tiamat hasn’t made a move is also in line with our current situation, my trump card is far from ready. In short, these two people can adapt to their needs.” Putting Humbaba in his arms down, Wu Ming continued to speak.
Wu Ming is like this, and everyone who has no other means is fine, but the Roman who is in Chaldea, is a strange appearance.
There is no way to do this, the extinction crisis can only be solved by “waiting”? This is very strange.
However this meeting ended. In the end, Gilgamesh forced everyone out of the throne room. Then, as usual, he began to handle government affairs on the clay board again. Siduri couldn’t handle the problem.
Gudako and Mahsu were tired, and after leaving the tower, they returned to the Chaldea embassy to sleep.
Anna left alone, not knowing where to go, Ishtar became the center of attention to receive a kneeling from a human.
Quetzalcoatl isn’t as vulgar as Ishtar, and she brings in Jaguar Man to help build temporary housing for the new residents.
Enkidu originally wanted to talk to Gilgamesh, but knew that Gilgamesh needed to handle government affairs. She took Humbaba with him and did not know where to go.
However, Enkidu and Humbaba are also good friends, and they can miss each other.
In the end, the remaining Merlin took the initiative to look for Wu Ming.
…
In a room in the center of the tower, Merlin and Wu Ming came straight here after being expelled from the throne with everyone.
In front of the large windowless window of Uruk, Wu Ming and Merlin looked side by side at the outside door, witnessing the busy scene in the city of Uruk.
“Everyone from the north wall is here?” Wu Ming suddenly said.
“Leonidas, Ushiwakamaru and Musashibo Benkei in charge have arrived. There should be no humans outside of Uruk.”
If Uruk’s previous evaluation was “almost all humans in this era”, then the current Uruk could completely erase “almost” and turn it into “gathering all humans in this era”.
“It’s all thanks to you, Vero.” Merlin sighed at Wu Ming in a tone that was rarely like hanging out with a friend.
Wu Ming smiled, and it was indeed his honor to protect Uruk, but there was also a human spirit in this era. Gilgamesh told everyone that the world would end at least half a year ago.
“What did you see when you went to Eri Town?” Wu Ming didn’t remember Merlin, and got straight to the topic.
“The battle between the three-headed demon dragon and the Dragon God of Creation.” Merlin answered Wu Ming’s question bluntly.
“Of course.”
What is Wu Ming really? Of course, Merlin saw the future of Eri City’s cylinder seal.
Or, the future was changed by Wu Ming.
