Two Thousand Three Hundred and Ninety-One "Uruk"
the next day.
When the sun rose from the east again, Luo Zhen and his party finally arrived in Uruk.
As the center of this era, this city is the largest fortified city in the world, its grandeur and luxury can be imagined.
Because the Sumerians have appeared on the stage of history since around 4,000 BC. After more than a thousand years of development, their civilization has already become very mature.
The oldest urban civilization of human beings, the Sumerian civilization, is that the Sumerians started from the village society where thousands of people lived together, and began to increase grain production through irrigation and farming, thus gradually forming a city-state group with a scale of 10,000 people It was formally established later.
Although the scale is not as large as a modern country, after becoming a country of this size, writing was invented as a matter of course, and higher education was taught at the same time. Although the wood was not benefited by nature, the fertile land surrounded by two big rivers The earth can produce high-quality soil, allowing the Sumerians to use the clay extracted from the soil to build various tools, buildings and even fortresses.
So, this is a land of mud and clay and wheat and sheep.
Then, as the oldest city of human beings, the prosperity of Uruk is also second to none in the world.
At this moment, even during the war, Uruk's market is still lively.
Shouts echoed everywhere.
The sound of knocking on the iron block is also constantly ringing.
The curling smoke that seemed to be produced by forging weapons rose from all directions.
People who only wear rough clothes are moving around in such a city, either setting up various stalls and storefronts, shouting constantly, or hurriedly doing iron forging and transportation, etc., resulting in A market scene that can't even match the modern downtown.
"""Okay... so lively!"""
Standing in front of the gate of Uruk, looking at this bustling city, including Luo Zhen and everyone in Chaldea, everyone seemed to be stunned, and couldn't help sending out such sound.
Even Anna, who had been keeping quiet all the way and not interacting with anyone, was stunned by the scene in front of her, with a dazed expression on her face.
"This... is this Uruk in ancient Mesopotamia!?"
"Why is it so lively!?"
"Obviously during the war,
And it’s still against God, it’s simply unbelievable that the human beings here can still maintain such vitality! "
The voices of Olga Marie, Da Vinci, and Roman rang from the communicator one after another. It is conceivable that they were also frightened by the scene in front of them.
"Is this really the kind of environment a civilization of 2600 BC could have created?"
Luo Zhen couldn't hide his surprise on his face.
Originally, Luo Zhen thought that since it was an ancient time almost five thousand years ago, even if urban civilization had already been formed, it should be very crude and sloppy.
In fact, the city presented to everyone is indeed not up to modern times, that is, there are no paved roads, and there are no high-rise buildings. It's like earth and stone houses, even the stalls and storefronts are very simple, telling others that this place is undoubtedly ancient.
But no matter whether it is the market or the field, there are people working energetically and in an extremely orderly manner.
The degree of excitement and the layout of the rules are not inferior even in modern times.
"How? Do you think it's an eye-opener?"
Merlin seemed to be expecting everyone's surprised expressions, and when he saw everyone's stunned expression, he immediately let out a voice of great satisfaction.
"This is Uruk. There is no doubt about it. Since it is dubbed the title of the oldest civilization of mankind, as the earliest civilized society in human history, and also as the origin of future human civilization, there will be such excitement and vitality. Is it a matter of course?"
After all, the civilizations of later generations are all based on this civilization, so the shadow of the civilization of later generations can be seen from the current civilization.
"In the future, such a civilized society will continue to develop, and sooner or later it will become a society and environment that you are familiar with. You should cherish it if you can witness the origin of everything."
With that said, Merlin raised the staff in his hand and pointed it forward.
"Look, the tower located in the center of Uruk is the city's shrine, as well as the king's palace, and also serves as a place of sacrifice, but now the city god is gone, so it has almost become Gilgamesh Shi Wang's bedroom."
Hearing this, everyone looked over one after another.
What catches the eye is a temple with a pyramid structure, just as Merlin said, it is located in the very center of Uruk, it looks majestic and sacred.
All the streets in Uruk lead to it in all directions, converging on the square where the temple is located, and the closer the temple is, the more magnificent the buildings and layout are, and finally there are stone bricks on the square. On the road, the city center where the temple is located looks extremely prosperous.
"Let's go to see the king." Merlin smiled at everyone, and advised: "However, you have to be mentally prepared first, okay?"
What psychological preparation?
Of course, it is a psychological preparation for the difficult communication with the oldest heroes and kings of mankind.
"Although it is a virtuous king who has already searched for immortality from the underworld and awakened after being thoroughly enlightened, but no matter what, he is the hero king, the most terrifying tyrant, the most arrogant and ruthless adjudicator, and he wants to fight on an equal footing with that king. Dialogue, that is definitely not an easy task, and maybe it may be regarded as an enemy and killed on the spot, if you don’t want to turn into the worst situation, then you have to think about what to do.”
Merlin said so seriously, so that Matthew couldn't help swallowing, and his expression became tense.
Luo Zhen's eyes flickered slightly.
As for Anna, she had already recovered from her astonishment, looked at the lively and bustling city scene in front of her, and suddenly lowered her head.
"I won't go." Anna said in a low voice: "I don't want to go to a place where humans gather and meet the king of humans. I don't want to do such a thing."
After speaking, Anna wanted to turn around and leave.
Merlin didn't stop it.
No, it should be said that he had already expected Anna's reaction.
therefore...
"Oh? Is this okay?" Merlin shook his head and said, "If you leave here now, with your own strength, let alone defeating the goddess of monsters, you just want to break through the army of monsters. See It is impossible to reach that goddess, even so, do you still want to leave?"
Hearing this, Anna stopped in her tracks.
"Your purpose is to defeat that goddess, right? That's why you reached an agreement with me, isn't it?" Merlin said in a tempting tone, "In this case, you should stay here and use Uruk's power to Fight the Goddess of Warcraft with us, so that we can see the Goddess of Warcraft and defeat her okay?"
"...You didn't say that before." Anna turned her head, glared at Merlin, and said, "Before, you clearly said that you would take me to see the Goddess of Warcraft."
"Yes." Merlin nodded frankly, but said with a smile: "But I never said that I wanted to break in with you alone?"
Anna was speechless for a moment.
"How is it? Are you coming?"
Merlin smiled treacherously.
"......well."
Anna was silent for a while, then sighed and walked over.
"One day, I will definitely kill you."
Leaving such words behind, Anna walked into Uruk.
"Yes, yes." Merlin didn't care, then smiled at Luo Zhen and Matthew: "Then, let's go too."
"Okay... okay." Matthew looked indescribable.
Luo Zhen rolled his eyes directly.
A group of people walked into Uruk and headed towards the tower.
