Two Thousand Four Hundred and Forty-Six "Kusa"
The next day, in the royal hall of the divine tower, there was a heavy atmosphere.
Rozen, Matthew, Anna, and Merlin stood in the royal hall, all frowning.
Gilgamesh was also sitting on the throne, crossing his arms, with an unhappy expression on his face.
Siduri was holding a clay tablet and was reporting.
"...The above are the findings after statistics this morning."
Siduri said those words with an expression of indescribable lamentation.
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Including Rozen.
Luo Zhen silently observed the current Uruk through the abilities of the "Eye of Wisdom" and "Eye of Mind".
According to the observations of "Eye of Wisdom" and "Eye of Mind", Uruk is far more lively than before, and it is full of vitality everywhere.
This is because the 100,000 humans who were rescued before have all settled down and integrated into Uruk's proof.
With the addition of hundreds of thousands of laborers, Uruk will become very lively, which is nothing more than a normal thing.
However, who knew that under this bustling scene, there were dangers everywhere?
At the very least, Luo Zhen could sense that the miasma that began to permeate yesterday in Urukli, which was becoming more and more lively, was actually more than ten times thicker.
Thanks to this, there seems to be more dead spirits active in the dark and underground, making Uruk like two realms of light and darkness. The upper part is a vibrant city, and the lower part is a dark and sinister hell. tremble with fear.
Gilgamesh let out an extremely unhappy voice.
"In just one night, a total of one hundred and thirteen people died of exhaustion. It really has become reckless."
Gilgamesh said so.
Yes.
A total of one hundred and thirteen people died of sudden exhaustion last night and were not discovered until this morning.
"I'm afraid it's because of the influence of the aroma of death that the physical strength is continuously drained, and then the soul is taken away by the Galura Spirit?"
Merlin touched his chin and said so.
"Obviously the battle situation at the north wall and the south gate is getting better and better, I didn't expect..."
Matthew had a sad face.
Even Anna's complexion looked a little unsightly.
Because, among those who died of exhaustion, one of them had his soul taken away in front of Anna.
According to what she said, last night, when everyone fell asleep, she was the only one who was still thinking about things on the roof of the embassy, and finally witnessed the appearance of the Galura Spirit, and saw with her own eyes those messengers from the underworld entered In a building opposite, the soul of one of them was taken away.
Anna chased after him without hesitation, but failed to catch up, watching helplessly as the other party disappeared in front of her eyes.
This put Anna in a bad mood from the morning.
"Why are there so many Galura spirits in Urukri?" Anna glared at Merlin and asked, "Didn't Merlin already set up an enchantment? Isn't that enchantment able to confuse the undead?"
It seems that Anna took her anger out on Merlin.
"This is really wronged." Merlin suddenly sighed helplessly, and said, "Even if it is my sea of flowers, it can confuse other necromantic monsters, but the Galura spirit is an accident, right?"
"Accident?" Anna was slightly taken aback.
"That's right." Merlin nodded, and said, "Different from other necromantic monsters, Galura Spirits are messengers of the underworld, and their duty is to bring the souls of the dead into the underworld, so they have nowhere to go." No, as long as there is human life, there must be their presence."
In other words, the Galura Spirit cannot be expelled, and its own duty is to wander in the human world and take away the souls of the dead.
"If it was in the post-AD world, existences like them would definitely be unable to continue wandering on the earth because of the disappearance of the true ether, but unfortunately, this is the age of the gods, and they can enter and exit human cities without any scruples.
Even the strongest barrier cannot completely isolate them, because that means excluding "death" from the world where the barrier is located, which is not allowed by the world and the gods. "
Merlin said so.
"If you want to put an end to the Galura Spirit, the only way is to keep humans from appearing in this place. If there is no soul they need to take away, and there is no birth, old age, sickness and death, then they will not be able to show up. On the contrary, as long as there is birth, old age, sickness and death, then There is no way to drive them away anyway.”
As a result, the battle situation in the north and south continued to improve, and even the necromantic monsters at night were blocked by Merlin's flower array. Now, only these Galura spirits can freely enter and exit Uruk.
They can't do anything to strangers, but at night, they will silently snatch away the souls of human beings who have been eroded by the aroma of death and died of exhaustion, causing the citizens of Uruk to be taken away overnight. One hundred and thirteen people.
actually...
"This is not the first time this has happened." Siduri said rightly, "Before this, many people in Urukri were also taken away by the Galura Spirit, as if falling into a deep sleep. Died silently, and the same is true for other cities, all of which experienced varying degrees of death tolls, especially Kusa City, after the appearance of the "Three Goddess Alliance", all the citizens there seemed to be asleep, stop took a breath."
"Kusa?"
Everyone immediately looked at each other.
Luo Zhen also raised his head.
"Kusa City?" Luo Zhen said quite calmly: "I remember that it seems to be a city located in the northeast of Uruk, which happens to be the territory of Ishtar, adjacent to the Warcraft Territory in the north?"
"Yes." Siduri nodded, and said: "Although the population of that city is not large, it also has a developed society and civilization, and it believes in the goddess of the underworld, so the patron saint of the city is also the goddess of the underworld, and Uruk, which worships the goddess of life, is a place opposite to each other."
"Goddess of the underworld..." Matthew hesitated for a moment, then said tentatively, "Well, does the underworld really exist?"
The answer to this question is none other than Gilgamesh.
"If the underworld doesn't exist, where did I go to find the immortality herb?" Gilgamesh snorted coldly, and said, "In your era, the mysteries faded and the underworld became history, but In this era, the sky and the earth, the earth and the underworld, are all one."
This is something that has also been said in the past.
In the Age of Gods, the world was one, the gods were all in the sky, and the dead were all on the ground. These are descriptions of physical properties, and there is no theory of phases.
That is to say...
"It's a matter of course that the city god of Kusa is the goddess of the underworld, because the underground of Kuza is the underworld, and this king entered the underworld from there, and returned there from the underworld."
Gilgamesh tapped on the armrest of the throne.
"Now, the spirit of Galura is raging on the ground, and Uruk is also shrouded in the fragrance of death. The dead keep appearing, and the souls are kept being taken away. This is absolutely inseparable from Ereshkigal."
——— "Ereshkigal".
The owner of this name is the goddess of the underworld.
