Chapter 698
"If there is any emergency, don't worry about the interval, just contact me directly, I will rush back quickly."
Since we are going to the Age of Gods, the protection work here must be done well, and Su Mo has added a lot of defensive measures.
Seeing his actions, Qing Ji proudly raised her head and chest.
"Don't worry, Lord Su Mo, I will definitely protect Sakura and the others! Moreover, with your blessing, there are not many people who can defeat me!"
With Su Mo's blessing, she can trace back her bloodline at any time and become a beautiful Eastern Fairy Dragon.
Not to mention the magicians in modern society, even if it is against the Heroic Spirit, as long as it is not the kind of outrageous top servant, Qing Ji will not have a problem fighting seven.
You know, the dragon species in the Type-Moon world can rival the gods.
There is really no need to worry about her safety.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you."
Su Mo nodded.
If Qing Ji uses her full strength, there are indeed not many people who can deal with it.
In addition to Qing Ji, he also arranged other backup plans. He was still assured of the safety of Xiaoying and the others.
Not to mention, if it was time travel.
Maybe when Su Mo came back, Xiaoying hadn't finished school yet!
After preparations were completed.
Su Mo grabbed Okita Souji, turned her body into a spirit, and collected it through a contract.
Then he responded to Ishtar's call.
The figure disappeared directly in the vortex of time and space.
…………
…………
Before Su Mo noticed Ishtar's call, a little bit earlier.
In fact, it wasn't long.
It was probably only more than 5,000 years ago.
That is, around 3,100 BC.
At this time, human civilization was still in the wild Age of Gods.
The existence of gods was not actually the most active at this time. The Age of Gods was just the beginning.
Except for the wise and knowledgeable, I am afraid that not many people would think that humans and gods would part ways at this moment.
After all, in this era, it is the most basic common sense for humans to serve gods and gods to bestow grace on humans.
——Of course, this does not include a certain ancient Eastern civilization.
At this time, the ancient civilization located in Mesopotamia, the Sumerian civilization, which rose in the Tigris and Euphrates River basins, has entered the city-state era.
As the capital of the Sumerian dynasty, Uruk naturally has its own city patron saint.
——Ishtar.
Whether it is the people under her protection or her enemies, they will probably tremble when they hear this name.
This mistress of the sky who relies on the favor of her father god and acts recklessly everywhere is the goddess who protects Uruk.
And correspondingly, the people of Uruk must also offer their faith to this goddess.
In fact, with what Ishtar did, even if she was not the patron saint of this city, she would probably be able to (promisingly) gain enough awe.
But this kind of thing is not important.
At least now, it is just a trivial matter.
The important thing is to return.
This proud mistress of heaven is now hiding in her altar, pulling her priestess with a wronged look, and saying something angrily.
When she was excited, she waved her fist, looking like she was going to say something cruel.
It is obvious that this lawless goddess has been bullied, and there is no way to retaliate.
So she can only hide in the room and vent her emotions to her priestess.
"¨~ That guy Ai Lei is a fool! Idiot! You wait, one day I will return all the humiliation I have suffered! You will kneel in front of me and beg for mercy!"
The goddess with blond hair and red eyes said the words of a loser with an indignant look on her face.
The priestess on the side comforted her own goddess helplessly. .
Chapter 574
"Please calm down, Ishtar. Maybe it's just a misunderstanding."
Siduri, the head of the priests of Uruk and the one who served Ishtar, tried to persuade Ishtar while comforting her.
"Misunderstanding?"
However, after hearing her words, Ishtar's voice immediately rose eight degrees.
"How could it be a misunderstanding! That guy embarrassed me seven times, seven times! If I didn't have so many artifacts on me, I almost couldn't come back!"
"Ishtar Goes to the Underworld", this is a very important chapter in Sumerian mythology.
Not long ago, Ishtar fulfilled this myth and went to the underworld to find her sister Ereshkigal.
She originally planned to build a good relationship with the other party.
However, what Ishtar didn't expect was.
As soon as she arrived in the underworld, she was given a blow by Ereshkigal.
If you want to go deep into the underworld, you must pass through seven doors.
Each time she passed through a gate, she had to pay with one of her divine weapons.
If she didn't have a divine weapon, she would have to exchange it with half of her divinity.
You know, the Underworld is Ereshkigal's home ground.
In this case, Ishtar, who had to enter the Underworld, had no way to resist.
Fortunately, she had more divine weapons.
In the end, she barely passed through the seven gates.
Then... she saw a big skeleton.
Before she even saw Ereshkigal, the two of them started arguing, and soon they started fighting.
Without the help of the artifact, he was suppressed by the underworld home.
Ishtar was immediately hung up and beaten.
If she hadn't run so fast, she might have stayed in the underworld forever.
Therefore, after getting out of trouble, she deeply hated her sister who had no martial ethics.
Counting today, she dragged Siduri here and scolded Ereshkigal for three days and three nights.
To this day, she is still very angry when talking about her experience.
"Seven times is indeed a bit too much."
Hearing Ishtar's words, Siduri nodded.
"I just said yes? Even Siduli thinks so. It's obviously that guy who's wrong!"
After hearing Siduri's words, Ishtar immediately became excited as if she had been affirmed.
However--
"I didn't say that."
Siduli shook her head.
Ishtar's experiences have been ringing in her ears these days. As a believer of Ishtar, she will generally sympathize with and defend the injustice suffered by her main god, whether it is due to faith or to please. own people.
However, Siduri is not the type to help relatives but not others, and Ishtar and Ereshkigal are not enemies.
Not to mention, as a mortal, I am not qualified to comment on gods.
She just relied on her own understanding of Ishtar and found something wrong in Ishtar's words.
"According to what you said, Lord Ishtar, when you went to the underworld, you originally planned to visit Lord Ereshkigal, right?"
"...Well, you can also say that!"
Ishtar's tone was hesitant, but he still nodded, looking a little suspicious.
Siduri noticed this, but said nothing and continued to ask.
"In this case, Lord Ereshkigal shouldn't even meet your face and have a conflict with you, right?"
"There is no deep grudge between the two adults. If I knew you were going with good intentions, even if Ereshkigal didn't treat you politely, I would not directly embarrass you."
Siduli points out the irrationality.
Ishtar immediately nodded like a rattle.
"That's right! How can ordinary people refuse the kindness of this goddess? That guy must have been in the underworld for a long time and has a dark mind! That's why he attacked this goddess!"
When she said this, she was still angry.
Siduli had other ideas.
"Could it be that when you first went to the underworld, Lord Ishtar, you used your words carelessly and angered the other party?"
Based on her knowledge of Ishtar, the probability of such a thing happening is not small.
She knew the character of her Lord God. Even in the God Realm, Ishtar was the type of problem child who behaved wantonly.
Although this guy has a good heart, he obviously doesn't understand what normal communication means.
"How is that possible, Siduli, please don't accuse someone of their innocence out of thin air!"
Upon hearing this, Ishtar immediately widened his eyes in protest.
"This goddess is not an idiot, how could she offend others as soon as she opens her mouth?"
"..."
Siduli didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.
——Don’t you have any ideas in mind? Haven't you offended enough people?
"Ahem!"
This look made Ishtar feel guilty. After coughing, she decided to ignore the question.
"Anyway, I didn't say anything bad this time! Moreover, I made some preparations in advance before going to the underworld! There is absolutely no place to attack her!"
She said it with all her heart.
Siduri was a little confused. Could it be that this time it really wasn't Ishtar's problem?
But out of curiosity, she asked anyway.
"May I know what topic you have prepared, Lord Ishtar?"
Upon hearing this question, Ishtar immediately put his hands on his hips, looking a little proud.
It is obvious that he is very confident in the topic that he has carefully prepared.
"Since you want to know so much, I'll tell you!"
"When I first arrived in the underworld, the guy asked me why I wanted to go to the underworld with the help of my relatives. I took a cordial attitude and told her that the underworld is dark, damp, desolate, and shabby. It doesn’t mean anything.”
"Originally, when I said this, I planned to invite her to play on the ground together, but I didn't expect that before I could finish my words, the guy got angry, and then you know what happened!"
Saying this, Ishtar frowned slightly, apparently still not understanding why the other party suddenly turned against him.
"..."
Hearing Ishtar's words, Siduri held her forehead weakly.
