After crossing, I inherited Uruk

Chapter 33 The Sixth King

There is never a shortage of disasters in Mesopotamian lore.A broken clay tablet once revealed a period of the Age of Gods——

The three gods An, Enlil, and Enki created human beings, but humans annoyed the gods.

The gods sent down a great flood, and only Giusudra, who was instructed by Anshen to build the ark, survived.

However, now that the gods have gradually disappeared, and most of them cannot be found, it can be said that none of the human beings in the world has witnessed the true face of the gods.

Even the goddess of Venus in Uruk, it was because of the body of a human girl brought by the witches of Uruk many years ago that she succeeded in descending, not the complete goddess herself.

The gods can bring gifts with one hand, and they can also wave down disasters-we can believe in the gods, but we can't pray to the gods for everything. Human beings can only rely on themselves.

The young and beautiful girl was sitting on the steps, surrounded by many children, all of them looked at her curiously.

"Hey—the great flood—"

One of the children who held his round face with his hands blinked and asked.

"Sounds really terrible. But which one is more serious than the beast attack a long time ago? I heard from my grandfather that at that time, many people were eaten. It was terrible."

"Beast attack? Actually, it wasn't too long ago...at least compared to the rumored flood. I was not very old when those things happened, but I still have a deep memory.

After all... To be honest, the disaster I experienced when I was young is actually more terrifying in my heart than the great flood that I only heard about. "

The girl sitting among the children stretched out her hand and gently touched the little head of the child who asked the question.

"In those few years, due to the weather, the number of weak animals dropped sharply because they couldn't find food, which also led to hungry beasts entering the city to attack humans because they really had no prey.

In fact, our situation in Uruk is already considered good, and those cities in the north are the ones that really suffered heavy casualties.Even some weak cities perish directly... What a disaster. "

The girl couldn't help sighing as she spoke, but considering that there were so many children around, she quickly adjusted her mood and smiled again.

"Okay—don't look at me like that. It's all in the past. Now Uruk is recovering well under the king's leadership, isn't it?"

Children's attention is always easily diverted.After hearing the girl's words, the children immediately agreed with each other.

But at this time, another voice came over.

"You're really free——"

The soldier captain who happened to be patrolling and passing by stopped here temporarily.The young man with wheat-colored skin raised his eyebrows and looked at the clay tablet that was thrown aside: "These are all reports to the hospital that Wang sent to the hospital during this period, right? So you have lost your work and are working with these children." tell stories?"

"Uh...this..."

A drop of cold sweat broke out on the girl's head, and her eyes fluttered with guilt.

"Actually, these children are pestering... Ah well, don't blame these children, it's me... I should be the first to complete the task... I'm sorry, Lord Ariane. I'll go to the tower first Hand over the clay tablet, and I am willing to accept any punishment after that!"

Saying this, the embarrassed girl quickly hugged the clay tablet that had been placed aside, said goodbye to the children, and hurriedly walked towards the divine tower.

The girl's father is the head of the Uruk Medical Center.But the girl doesn't have much talent in medicine.

And the few people in the medical hall were temporarily unable to get away because they had to urgently treat the wounds of several seriously injured citizens, or they were busy researching new medicinal herbs, or they simply went out to check on the physical condition of the former patients... …

All in all, the task of handing over the report from this period of time to Wang Guomu finally fell on the most leisurely girl.

I heard that although Wang has a milder personality... But the place where it should be strict is still very strict. Generally speaking, if she skips work without a valid reason, she will not be allowed... Probably...

The girl hadn't seen the king a few times—in fact, the current king had been busy since he took over the throne.

She talked to the children about the tragedy of beasts attacking humans many years ago.But the reality is much crueler than a few understatements.

The king succeeded to the throne when Uruk was in turmoil due to external factors, and then he had to be busy day and night for Uruk's recovery, and he had no time to leave the tower.

Now, Uruk is indeed almost recovered, but... a strange incident has occurred recently, and the medical center is also busy because of that incident.

I hope the king can lead us to solve those strange things smoothly this time as in the past...

The girl who thought this way finally came to the tower.

After greeting the soldiers in charge of guarding, the girl carefully walked towards the direction of the Jade Throne holding the clay tablet.

I hope Wang doesn't care too much about my skipping work...

The girl just took a step, and before she had time to see the whole picture of the hall, she just took a rough look and found that there seemed to be only the figure of the head priest who had just been in office for a few years.

Eh?etc?Only the head priest?

The girl was stunned as she listened to the usually dignified and elegant chief priest who said "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! plate.

A strange idea came into her mind.

It turns out that Wang...would skip work too?

……

Young little girl is walking alone in the wild jungle.

Something big seems to be happening these days.However, the girl is still too young to understand too complicated things. She only knows that her parents do not allow her and other partners to explore and play in the dense forest as usual.

Still, for some reason, she sneaked out a few times.It was the same today. After listening to the story told by the elder sister in the medical center, the little guy returned home as usual and took a basket to pack some food.

Then he told his family that he was going to play with his friends, but ended up sneaking into the jungle with food.

Generally speaking, the only way to leave Uruk must be handled by soldiers.But kids always have their own unique way of being kids.

Sometimes the power of children must not be underestimated-they can always do things that adults did not expect and succeed.

The girl is walking in the dense forest.In the past, she was not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, and she slipped out to play with other children a few times, and she didn't think there was anything scary about it.But after hearing what the sister of the medical center said today, she began to feel scared.

Most children have rich imaginations.Although the girl who was pulled to tell the story didn't say much.But the girl was too frightened to walk by the man-eating beast that she imagined.

To, or not... let's go back...

The girl hesitated.

However, if he went back like this, that child would be hungry.

Just when the girl was in a tangle, she suddenly heard something.

At the beginning, it was just trembling, but soon the whole bush behind him trembled.

What followed was the low roar of a large ferocious beast—although the girl had never seen any wild beasts, her survival instinct made her aware of the danger.

The girl's mind went blank for a moment, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at the place where the voice came from, which was behind her.

Then the moment she turned her head, she saw a monster whose body was almost covered in snake scales.

The huge monster had a slender neck, and it was only looking down at the girl from above, as if evaluating the value of its prey.

Afterwards, it lowered its head and looked at the poor child at a distance almost face to face for a while, then stretched out its tongue like a snake letter, and licked the girl's face.

"Yahahahah!"

The girl burst into tears immediately, and the basket containing the food in her hand fell to the ground in an instant.

Just when she thought that she would become food instead of delivering food, a hand emerged from the monster's side and back.

Then he directly pressed on the silver monster's head unceremoniously, forcing it to straighten its head again.

At the same time, there was a helpless male voice.

"Okay, don't be coquettish. Back up a little more, and then get down, you scared the child. Hey, you have such a long neck, so you won't be tired if you lower your head like this. By the way, you don't have extra meals today."

The silver-white monster actually backed up a few steps obediently, and after reaching a distance where the girl would not feel oppressed, it obediently got down on the ground, and at the same time hummed like a small animal in aggrieved manner. few times.

The girl wiped her tears in shock, obviously the monster's obedient appearance couldn't offset the fear it brought before.She wiped her tears in fear, her heart beating violently.

"Sorry to scare you. It's all right, you're safe now."

Did not question why the girl appeared here alone.The man who had previously stopped and restrained the monster's behavior stepped forward, knelt down in front of the young child, and comforted her gently.

The young child raised his head sobbing.His vision was blurred by the tears.

However, after hearing the convincing and pleasant voice of the visitor, she tried hard to wipe away her tears.

The young child looked at the person in front of him with red eyes.

It was a male whose age was between a teenager and a young man, just looking at his appearance.His complexion is different from the fairness of most Sumerians.

At the same time, he also has blond hair that is slightly longer than the shoulders, which symbolizes the blood of the gods, and it seems to be shining under the mottled sunlight shining through the leaves of the dense forest.

But, that's not the point.

Because, this person is...

Seeing that the girl finally stopped crying, the man with amazing appearance winked at the child, and then smiled generously.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, my boy."
