Two Thousand Three Hundred and Seventy-Two "Gilgamesh"
In 2600 BC, the early Sumerian dynasty was established, making the city-state kingdom the main body of this era.
In this era, the system of "one city equals one country" can be seen everywhere. Some slave city-states fought with each other for a long time and successively claimed hegemony. It was not until the middle of the 24th century BC that King Uma conquered the southern city-states and the Sumerian state was established. , and set the capital in the fortress city --- Uruk.
And this so-called King Uma is the protagonist in the oldest heroic epic "The Epic of Gilgamesh"——Gilgamesh.
He is the oldest king in the history of mankind, and even the oldest hero in the history of mankind. People in later generations call him the King of Heroes, and he is the most distinctive and legendary among the three Sumerian heroes. He was deeply worshiped and praised by the Sumerians.
If it is said that heroic spirits are existences sublimated from heroes in history and mythology, then this King of Heroes is undoubtedly the original heroic spirit, the oldest hero.
His spirituality is enough to rival Osmandis, the greatest god-king in Egyptian history, and even higher than Osmandis in terms of qualifications. Even if you look at the entire history of mankind, there are only one or two existences who can match him. Said to be one of the strongest Heroic Spirits, one who stands at the pinnacle of heroes and kings, is almost unmatched by anyone.
Now, the era that Luo Zhen and others have arrived at is the era that this king lived in before his death.
There are many legends about him, and Luo Zhen remembers them all clearly.
The King of Heroes was originally created by the gods as a wedge to restrain human beings by combining the royal family with the goddesses in order to restrain the power of human beings from over-reproduction. The
Therefore, Gilgamesh is actually a half-human and half-god existence, with a very high godhead of two-thirds god and one-third human, and the perspectives of both gods and humans.
The young Gilgamesh was once an ideal ruler who was highly respected and admired by all. He possessed qualities superior to anyone on the earth. He was tolerant, fair, and respected virtue, so he was deeply loved by the people.
Until he entered his youth, Gilgamesh suddenly decided to create a storm to discipline mankind, not just as a king who governed mankind.
In order to judge the benchmark of human beings, he scrambled and accumulated wealth wantonly, and collected all the treasures in the world in his own treasury, which he owned only for himself.
Facing Gilgamesh like this, the gods created Enkidu, a warrior who would fight against Gilgamesh as a
Thus, Gilgamesh and Enkidu met on the ground, and started a mythical and epic battle, but in the end they could not tell the winner.
After this battle, Gilgamesh, who met his peer for the first time, became friends with Enki instead.
Accompanied by his friends, Gilgamesh guided Uruk on the right track and gave it prosperity, creating a prosperous civilization, but he was still a willful and unreasonable tyrant.
Later, the goddess Ishtar made a marriage proposal to Gilgamesh, but was rejected. In a rage, Ishtar wept in front of his father, Anu, and sent the most powerful beast, the god of heaven, to the sky. The bull was put into the human world, ravaged the earth, harmed human beings, and brought terrible disasters to the human world.
Gilgamesh and Enkidu worked together to fight against the bull of the sky, so that the earth was spared from the persecution of the flood, and Ishtar's ambition failed.
However, after the failure, Ishtar petitioned the gods to weaken Enkidu, who was a weapon made by the gods and could not resist the gods, and died.
Gilgamesh was both sad and remorseful, thinking that the matter was caused by himself, and fell into the great grief and shadow that could not be restrained.
Witnessing Enkidu's death with his own eyes, Gilgamesh also realized that he would die like this one day, so he embarked on a journey to the underworld in order to seek eternal life, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, experiencing various tribulations, and finally in In the underworld, he met an old man named Napistine and got the spiritual grass of immortality.
However, Gilgamesh did not eat the spirit grass directly.
As the son of flesh and blood, he finally decided to bring immortality back to the city-state.
Unfortunately, on the way back to Uruk, when Gilgamesh bathed his body in a pool of clear springs to free his spirit and body from all shackles, a snake ate the spirit herb , Shed her skin, got a new body and slipped away.
Gilgamesh witnessed this scene, suddenly realized, and came to a conclusion.
"At the end of the day, nothing will remain in my hands."
In this way, Gilgamesh, who believed that he had seen through the distant future from the beginning, did not need to live forever, and should be praised by later generations as a hero. Gilgamesh, who had fulfilled his responsibility, returned to Uruk, shed the style of a tyrant, and governed the country steadily , and finally ushered in the end of life in the name of the world-famous virtuous king.
It is precisely because this king rose up against the gods, thinking that the world no longer needs gods. From this era, humans and gods have come to a farewell, the mystery has gradually declined, the gods have gradually left the ground, and the age of gods has come to an end. , until the arrival of the first year of AD, the Age of Gods came to an end.
In other words, at the end of the Age of Gods, Gilgamesh was the center of everything, and the city of Uruk he governed was also the center of this singularity, similar to the status of the holy capital of the sixth singularity.
"Now, we have just arrived at this singularity, and we don't know the situation of this singularity yet, so we can go to Uruk first, there will be things we want to know."
It was with this in mind that Luo Zhen wanted to go to Uruk.
Because the relationship between the Age of Gods is too far away after all, the concentration of mystery alone is far from what the modern age can compare. Under the condition of hastily preparing for the transfer of spirits, it will take a while for Chaldea to communicate with this side.
Chaldea had already anticipated this point, so he basically input the map information of this era into the communicator long before that, so that Rozen would not even know the location of Uruk.
Luo Zhen took Matthew and Attila all the way to Uruk.
However, on the way, Luo Zhen discovered that something extraordinary might have happened in this era.
"Pfft!"
As the three-color lightsaber flashed past, a roaring monster was cut in half by Attila's sword of the war god, and died tragically on the spot, with corpses and blood spilling on the ground.
Luo Zhen looked around, his face somewhat heavy.
Looking carefully, around the group of people, there were corpses of monsters lying on the ground along the way.
This made Altila frowned, and Mash looked even more suspicious.
Luo Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and asked a question.
"Which batch of monsters is this?"
Luo Zhen asked.
"The thirty-fourth batch." Matthew replied in a low voice: "It's already the thirty-fourth batch of monsters. If the total number is added up, there may be hundreds of monsters."
Yes.
Along the way, Luo Zhen and his party were constantly attacked by monsters.
This phenomenon is absolutely abnormal.
"Although it is the Age of Gods, it is not surprising that there are gods and beasts. It should not be surprising that there are so many monsters, but the number is too much."
If the ground is full of monsters like this, how can humans survive?
Therefore, Luo Zhen can be sure.
"In this singularity, absolutely extraordinary things have happened."
Luo Zhen was thinking like this.
At this time, Matthew on the side made a sound.
"There is a city ahead!"
Hearing this, Luo Zhen came back to his senses and looked over.
Seeing this, Luo Zhen's complexion changed again.
