Chapter 37: Old debt



Chapter 37: Old debt

After Gilgamesh and Enkidu both returned to Uruk with wood, news that "the king defeated the divine beast Humbaba and obtained countless treasures and returned with a large amount of wood" began to go viral in Mesopotamia.

Of course, this was what Wu Ming was pushing for, and his aim was of course to create prestige for Gilgamesh.

As for Wu Ming, ever since returning to his own stone palace on the mountain, he was at home and didn't go out anymore, but Wu Ming would watch Uruk through the stone statue of the Sage Dragon from time to time.

To be honest, despite Gilgamesh's reign being brutal, the living conditions of Uruk were superior.

And on a very peaceful day, suddenly there was a light earthquake in Uruk. After half a day, a god descended to Uruk.

Since the current is 2600 BC, although it is the end of the Age of Gods, it is not without the coming of the gods.

In the Age of Gods, the arrival of gods was extremely rare. However, the ceremony that was supposed to be held still had to be held.

Just as the people were preparing to prepare the ceremony for this god, this god rushed straight to the sacrificial hall of the Sage Dragon.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, the god destroyed the roof of the palace.

"Wise Dragon! Come out for me!" A voice full of charm came.

"Goddess Ishtar, please don't make a fuss in the Sage Dragon Hall. Also, please pay for the roof that was damaged after you left." Enkidu as a shrine offering walked slowly from inside the temple.

"This is you?! Huh! Where is the Sage Dragon, let him go out to pay off the debt!" Ishtar floated in the air with the legendary Heavenly Boat Maanna, and said angrily to Enkidu.

It was just that Ishtar seemed to recognize Enkidu.

"Lord Sage Dragon is here and will see if you are sincere, and will not look at you if you are not." Enkidu seemed to hate Ishtar, speaking in a bad tone.

"I don't care about sincerity, if he doesn't come out, I will destroy his broken palace!" Ishtar was in a battle-ready state, as if she was going to completely destroy this place.

"Who is that! Why so angry! Oh~ This is Ishtar, what brings you here." A shadow appeared on the stone statue in the center, and Wu Ming temporarily attached himself to it.

"Wise Dragon! The hero king you said was a man, why has he become a woman now!" Ishtar roared as she was deceived.

"Cough~ I thought you'd come to me sooner, but I don't know anything about this. I didn't know Gilgamesh was a woman before. After all, I was with you then. Gilgamesh who met you back then was only 3 years old."

The shadow flickered. Wu Ming guessed that with Ishtar's character he must not have paid any attention to Uruk in recent years. Seriously, a few years is just a nap to a god.

"Hmph! I told you, I have destroyed Mount Ebi. It's just a flower. I don't want anything else. I heard that the hero king is a peerless beauty. If you let him follow me as my servant, maybe I'll consider forgiving you."

"What are you, you want Gil to serve you too!" Enkidu put on a small angry face.

"Yes, Ishtar, don't even think about Gilgamesh. I will never allow it." The stone statue sent out a powerful wave. In an instant, Ishtar was suppressed by this wave.

"You guys wait for me, hum!" After speaking, Ishtar took Maanna's Heavenly Boat and left from the gap.

With a burst of light, the shadow on the stone statue turned into a human form and stood beside Enkidu.

"It seems that the previous earthquake was caused by the destruction of Mount Ebih," Wu Ming said slowly.

"Lord Wu Ming, I heard that you saved Mount Ebih earlier. What is the reason?" Enkidu asked curiously from the side.

"I saved Mount Ebih because of Gil. Back then, I took my young Gil to Mount Ebih for an adventure."

"Since Mount Ebih is a spiritual mountain, I asked him to take care of it when Gil goes up the mountain. After sensing the goddess Ishtar's intentions, Gil said, "Didn't you save her?" So I came to an agreement with Ishtar."

"Mount Ebih survived to this day, but still hasn't escaped fate. Annihilated by Ishtar." Wu Ming said helplessly.

"In fact, Mount Ebih would have disappeared more than ten years ago. From the current results, it is actually the same. Lord Wu Ming need not be sad about this." Enkidu cheers.

Wu Ming was surprised, smiled and shook his head, the mouth that wanted to say something suddenly stopped, and he suddenly thought of an idea.

"I'm so sad, I need a caring kiss to recover."

This time, Enkidu was helpless.

"Really, Lord Wu Ming, are you a child."

He said this, but Enkidu still kissed Wu Ming's mouth on tiptoes.

Wu Ming now looked nervous again.

After all, he just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect Enkidu to actually kiss him.

However, Wu Ming was not the type to not eat the food in his mouth.

Wu Ming embraced the kissing Enkidu with his eyes closed, and Enkidu was so scared that he wanted to back away, but Wu Ming's big hand immediately embraced Enkidu.

Enkidu was nervous at first, then he held her hand, then the two started a French wet kiss in the hall.

"Wu Ming, I heard Ishtar is here, what is she doing here!"

Suddenly a crisp female voice came from outside the hall, and Wu Ming and Enkidu quickly separated their embracing bodies.

Gilgamesh walked into the temple, and the blushing Enkidu and the indifferent Wu Ming were the ones that caught his attention.

Gilgamesh frowned and said.

"I always thought you guys were so weird, did anything happen while I was away."

Enkidu waved his hand quickly, but his face still had a lingering feeling that couldn't be lost for a while.

"By the way, Gil, is there something wrong with you coming to the temple."

"Yeah Gil, did you miss me?" Wu Ming also asked from the side, no, he was mocking to be more precise.

"Who will miss you! What a narcissist!" This made Gilgamesh blush, but Gilgamesh didn't care what Gilgamesh had noticed.

"I know that when I saw the streamer crashing into the temple, I guessed it was Goddess Ishtar at a glance, but what is she here for? Even though he is the god of the city of Uruk, he hasn't appeared in a long time. I thought that person was dead." Gilgamesh said with a very arrogant expression.

Wu Ming bet, if Ishtar heard this, he would go crazy.

"Ah~ He's here to settle the old account. He used Ebih Mountain's stuff all those years ago as a handle and said that he wanted you to be his servant," Wu Ming said lightly.

"What! He is something, and wants this king to be his servant! I am the king of heroes, he dares to humiliate me like this! Sure enough, there's nothing good about gods!" Gilgamesh became angry when he heard this. By the way, he was also glaring at Wu Ming.

What does that have to do with me! Wu Ming thought.

"Even though Ishtar was feared by me, she must have gone to find her god father. With the gods' love for Ishtar, plus the relationship between the two of you, the gods will definitely take the opportunity to act, this time Uruk may face disaster." Wu Ming frowned.

"Lord Wu Ming is right. I even suspected that Ishtar had come to ask for Gil. This may be the concern of god father Anu, to bring back Gil who is the 'Heaven's Wedge."

Enkidu said sensibly, after all, Enkidu's previous mission to Uruk was to bring Gilgamesh back to the sky and back to the gods.

"Well, I know, after this period of time, I will pay attention to Uruk."

"There is no other way, let's adapt to the circumstances."

Wu Ming noticed the turbulent weather outside and spoke slowly.

"Uruk will change."
