There was a rustling sound in the bushes.Urningal grasped the hilt of the dagger, ready for another battle.

The "enemy" seemed to be very good at hiding himself. The leaf began to shake greatly due to the movement of the person hiding in the bushes. After a while, a small figure finally emerged from the bushes.

It shook its head and shook off a few leaves stuck to its head, then raised its head and looked up at Ur: "Meow~"

Urningal: "..."

Urningal: "...?"

Wait, did he read it right?What the hell is this? !

The little guy who emerged from the bushes was unmistakably still a cub.However, Urningal recognized its appearance.

The head, neck, and body are covered with snake scales, and the limbs are lion feet in the front and eagle feet in the back; the head has horns and a crown, the tongue is forked like a snake, and the neck is slender; the tail is slender and the end is scorpion The scorpion needle of the tail. 【*】

There is no doubt that this is an angry snake or snake dragon.The Sumerians are more accustomed to calling it "Mushu Huxiu", one of the eleven sons of Tiamat, the goddess of creation.

Marduk, the god king, and his son Naboo's holy favor and beast follower are also Mushu Huxiu.They are the dragons of Babylon and are also painted on the gate of Ishtar.

But of course, they were also among the monsters that attacked Nippur before.

However, how do you look at this? Why is it wrong? !

In Urningal's guess, such a large number of demonic beasts with obvious intentions encountered before seemed to be mass-produced by someone or some existence, and the purpose was temporarily suspected to attack humans or human towns.But this cub doesn't seem to be the case.

Not to mention that the previous monsters were all strong and completed bodies (adults?), this one is not quite the same as the other Mu Xiu Huxiu just by looking at it.No, it's not that it's a cub, but that the snake scales covering the child's body are different from those of the Muxiu and Huxiu he saw before. They are silver, and compared to ordinary monsters, It adds a bit of sanctity to it.

This makes it more like the appearance of the favor of the legendary god-king Marduk and his son.

I don't know if it's because most creatures, no matter what they look like when they grow up, but cubs are always cute. This little guy looks a lot better than those monsters before. It's hard not to say "cute".

Unexpectedly, in his lifetime, he would still look at a monster and feel that his features are beautiful.

People can't, at least they shouldn't.jpg

Urningal complained to himself inwardly, trying to ease his previous nervousness, then squatted down and carefully looked at the little guy in front of him who didn't seem to have any attacking intentions.

Could it be said that this child is a descendant born of the natural reproduction of ancient monsters?Instead of the mass-produced body before...?But the difference is not that big, is it?After all, isn't it still the same species?It's not like he really met the offspring of the one raised by Marduk before... right?No, no, how could there be such a coincidence... lah.

Urningal was silent, but in the end he tried his best to deny his conjecture. After all, where is there such a good thing? Was he so lucky?Walking casually in the bushes can meet the son of the beast, the servant of the king of the gods?

Hmm... Let's call this little guy in front of him "Angry Snake" first.Although it is just a different name for the same species as "Muxiu Huxiu", the former name comes from later generations, and it is just right to distinguish it from those suspected mass-produced monsters.

The silver angry snake cub and the golden human cub stared wide-eyed, and finally the little guy couldn't hold back, tilted his head and let out a gasp that represented doubt, then his body softened and he fell back, Directly facing the human cub, it exposed a white and soft belly that was not covered by scales.

"Meow meow~"

Urningal: ?

He has long wanted to ask, is there something wrong with this angry snake?Brain crashed in the bushes?All other monsters would roar intimidatingly, so why is it meowing with such a strange painting style? ?crooked?Whose cat is this, did it forget to drink Meng Po soup when it was reincarnated? !

Urningal hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out his hand tentatively and put it on the belly of the seemingly defenseless angry snake cub. While recalling the way others licked cats in his previous life, he learned to remember The kind of scene in the movie hits the little guy up and down.

From the throat of the silver-white Angry Snake Cub, a satisfied "snurling" sound came out.

Urningal: "..."

This really is a cat in angry snake skin, right? !Wait, don't come here?Ah... is this being coquettish?

Ah, wait, wait!wrong!He is still on his way!If you are not careful, you will be delayed!

...Wait, could it be?

The blond boy narrowed his scarlet eyes and stared at the harmless cub for a few seconds.Then he stood up, pretending that he had no interest in this little guy, and walked straight forward without looking sideways.

"Meow? Meow meow~meow meow~"

The warm hand that had been stroking her belly suddenly moved away from her body, and the little angry snake, who had squinted her eyes to enjoy the service of stupid humans, opened her eyes in confusion. After seeing that Ur had gone away Quickly got up again and ran to catch up with him, circling around his feet, either rubbing his head or grabbing his trousers with his paws. ——In short, it caused great inconvenience to Ur's actions.

Because I will subconsciously worry about whether I will accidentally step on this little guy, so I will involuntarily be timid when I move, but this will slow down a lot.

Urningal stopped.

The meowing little guy also stopped, let go of his paws, and squatted in front of Ur, wagging his slender tail.

Urningal suddenly chuckled.

Before the little guy could react, Ur directly manipulated the wind to float himself in the air. ——The height is not very high, but it is exactly the level that this little guy can't reach even if he jumps up.

Silver Angry Snake: Meow meow? ? ?

After trying several times and finally determined that he could no longer hinder Ur's actions, the angry snake cub let out a mournful cry.A pair of eyes fixed on Urningal floating in the air, as if complaining "I may not be a human, but you are a real dog".

"really."

Urningal has now completely confirmed the intentions of this inexplicable little guy.

"Your purpose was to hinder my actions from the very beginning, right?"

Ur stared at this little angry snake that would definitely be in a state of fried hair if it had hair instead of scales.

"I can feel that you don't mean anything malicious. Then why...why don't you want me to go to the northern city? Although it was just a guess before, something really happened there, right?"

"Ugh-"

The little guy scratched the ground with his paws uneasily, and let out a low whine.

This appearance looks very pitiful, and it seems to confirm that something terrible has indeed happened in the north. If you continue to move forward, you may encounter danger.

Urningal's heart, which had finally been firmed up with great difficulty, was shaken again.

What if the head is really given away? If it is really dangerous, I feel like I am sending myself to death... However, if I really miss the opportunity to discover some crisis because of this, maybe it will bring Uruk the same in the future. Come disaster.

The city of Nippur is not too far away from Uruk. If even there is attacked by monsters, then Uruk and those people living in Uruk...

"..."

Only Uruk, he didn't want that beautiful place to be harmed.

In case, in case something really happened to him.He has also asked Arian to rush to notify.If I hadn't gone back all this time, I'm sure there would have been able to know...

"……what."

No matter how afraid of death a person is, there is a bottom line that cannot be touched.

Saying sorry from the bottom of my heart, Urningal finally bypassed the angry snake and headed towards the northern city again.

……

…………

.....................

The further you move forward, the more depressing and uneasy you will feel.

Because the distance from the small northern city gradually shortened, Ur could already feel a bloody smell through the wind.

How could this be?

Urningal shuttled through the city at high speed, and his pace gradually changed from slow to fast unconsciously, from walking to running.

how...how...how...how...

No one, no one found out.

Whether it is the elderly, young people or children, no one, no one has escaped this indiscriminate disaster.

Only bloodstains all over the floor, fallen furniture, and collapsed houses faintly reveal what happened here.

"...This is really... scary."

Even if he was attacked by a group of monsters, it wouldn't mean that no one escaped successfully in the end, right?

... No, it is not impossible.He can't use the standards of Uruk or Nippur to measure this place. This small city can't compare with those twelve strong fortress cities in terms of population and military strength. Maybe it's really because of these monsters... …

……

Is it really?

Urningal took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down, and after calming down a bit, he began to explore the surrounding traces.

"this is……?"

Unexpectedly, he actually discovered something.

After all, this is the age of mythology more than 4000 years ago. Neither the detection methods nor the legal norms are as perfect as the later generations. Generally speaking, even if a murder is committed in violation of the code, sometimes it is difficult to find the murderer due to the lack of exploration methods.

But of course, this is only a minority. More often, those who commit evil deeds on the spur of the moment don't even think of hiding their traces.

What's more, the current situation here is undoubtedly caused by the cruelty that is not covered up at all, and the monsters, or whoever is behind them, don't bother to cover up the so-called clues and traces at all.

This size doesn't look like the claws of a demonic beast, and the traces left on the ground are very slender...is it a tail?Or long whip?

Something resembling a tail or a long whip hit the ground fiercely. It was so powerful that it stirred up a large piece of rubble and cracked several deep cracks in the ground.

The former represents the unforgivable bad behaviors committed by the monsters, while the latter represents that some human beings who use weapons have participated in all this, and they are also the ones who committed violence.

— is the enemy.

Urningal, who was squatting down to observe the battle marks left on the ground, suddenly sensed some kind of crisis—a threat that has affected the most basic survival needs of living things.The instinct to survive was warning him, and the alarm bell rang in his brain, screaming frantically for him to escape from where he was.

Urningal jumped up suddenly, jumped off the spot, and landed firmly a few meters behind where he was originally.

—is the chain.

It mercilessly hit and shattered the ground where Ur was originally on, leaving traces very similar to what he had observed before.

The boy raised his head, and the white hood slipped off due to the previous action, revealing the true appearance of blond hair and fair skin, and the pair of red eyes that were slightly widened by astonishment.

What appeared in those eyes was——

Plain and holy-looking white robes.

Long green hair that fell down to the waist gently and exuded a faint brilliance.

With an androgynous appearance, she possesses a beautiful existence that transcends common sense and gender.

"Oh?"

As if surprised that Urningal escaped his own blow, the pair of purple pupils turned slightly and landed on the boy with blond hair and red pupils.

"At first, I was surprised that there would be a fish that slipped through the net here, but now it seems that you are not an ordinary child."
