Pivot of the Sky

Views:

Amon also noticed the reactions of Gilgamesh and Enkidu in the distance. While he was surprised, he saw Gilgamesh suddenly waved his hand and gave an order, and the priests of the Uruk army gathered around the high platform and raised the dharma. Staff, a huge mask rose to protect the high platform, and Gilgamesh's flat-ended staff closed its eyes.

The figure of a "god" appeared in the sky above the battlefield. His naked and fit body was covered with hazy colorful lights. His figure was taller than the tower of Red Cape Town, but it was the face of Gilgamesh. This is also a manifestation of a miracle. Gilgamesh transformed into a "divine form" in the air. It is not an illusion, but a form condensed by the consciousness of abstract existence after detaching from the shackles of the body.

According to legend, only gods can perform incredible miracles, but Gilgamesh did it. In the last battle, he showed his divine form in this way, but Amon was fighting Enkidu fiercely at that time, so he didn't see it. Seeing it with his own eyes at this moment, he couldn't help being a little dazzled. He is a great magician and a great warrior, and unlike other magicians or warriors, Amon has always aimed to find the way to become a god, so he feels different .

The figure shown by Gilgamesh is the condensed true and pure self-awareness in long-term divine magic meditation. When one cultivates to this level, what is probably awakened is not only the so-called power bestowed by the gods, but also another kind of free existence after the body and mind are detached from bondage, possessing the mana cultivated in this life, which is close to abstract eternity.

Amon remembered what the old lunatic said, that level nine achievements can have the power to fight against gods, and they are even called demigods. Some so-called gods who appear in the world are probably just demigods.

Seeing Gilgamesh, Amon understood one thing. Not all ninth-level achievers can be called demigods. If they want to appear as gods, there should be two possibilities. The first is the achievement of possessing two powers in one body, and the secret of becoming a ninth-level magician and a ninth-level warrior at the same time, and finally becoming a god is in it. The second possibility is to cultivate to the peak of the realm and touch the end of human achievements, just like Gilgamesh and Enkidu in front of you.

Gilgamesh is so arrogant that he doesn't even look down on the gods. He does have the capital of arrogance. If you don't know who he is, and you see this miracle in the sky, who can say that it is not a god? This person either already knows the secrets of some gods, or is an unborn genius.

When Amon was thinking about it, Gilgamesh in mid-air stretched out his hand and pointed at the huge cloud eagle, and a golden light flew from the high platform under his feet. It was a golden shuttle, and on the shuttle stood Enkidu holding a huge shield and a broadsword. Gilgamesh himself is not on the shuttle, but he can control the shuttle from the air to send Enkidu to the clouds!

Of course, the giant eagle formed by the white clouds also "saw" Enkidu rushing towards him in a flying shuttle, slightly folded his wings, opened his huge beak, and made a strange whistling sound.

The whistling sound trembled with a strong impact, but it couldn't be heard at all! Not only that, the soldiers on both sides of the battlefield could not hear any sound at this moment. It seemed that a magical force penetrated the eardrums and entered the mind, and the whole body felt weak. They all stared at the sky dumbfounded, and they didn't even know that the weapon in someone's hand fell to the ground.

The feelings of people on the battlefield are still the same, but Enqi in the air is directly facing the attack of the condor. The golden light on the shuttle is constantly shaking, as if it is about to be scattered at any time, and the giant shield in his hand is howling. Under the impact of the incandescent light, it suddenly became translucent! And Gilgamesh's figure kept pointing at the giant eagle, and he controlled the shuttle to penetrate the block and fly straight into the sky.

The silent whistling sound was suddenly sharp, as if an irresistible force erupted, and the brilliance on Gilgamesh's body trembled. The flying shuttle under Enkidu's feet and the giant shield in his hand couldn't bear the impact, and suddenly burst at the same time. The warrior uttered a roar like thunder, leaped high with the force of the flying shuttle, and slashed at the giant eagle with broad swords in both hands.

Enkidu's burly figure seemed so insignificant in front of the huge Yunying, but the golden sword he swung was extremely dazzling, with a length of a hundred feet, like a giant blade piercing the sky, slashing towards Yunying head.

Amon on the tower had an inexplicable sense of boiling heart tightening. Although he knew that Enqi was an enemy, he couldn't help but think of another person, the old lunatic Nietzsche. Ge Lie once showed Amon the splendor of Nietzsche's last moment of life. The scene of the old madman waving his staff and rushing towards Enlil behind the clouds is so similar to the scene in front of him! The old madman is dead, is Enkidu also mad? He and Gilgamesh had obviously been waiting for this moment, like an old lunatic waiting for a god to appear.

The giant blade slashed at Yun Ying, the cloud had no physical form, and the sword glow passed by, as if it did not cause any harm. But the entire sky was shaking, and the Yunying that had been slashed was dissipating, and then a huge storm rolled up in the sky, and it was impossible to see anything clearly for a moment. Affected by the storm, many people on the ground were staggering and unsteady.

Amon stood still and could see clearly. Gilgamesh's figure in the air disappeared in the storm, and he opened his eyes on the high platform and raised his staff to the sky. A gust of wind rose up, just caught Enkidu who fell from the sky, and fell steadily again. On the high platform. Looking at the number one warrior in the mainland, only a small half of the incomplete broadsword was held in his gloved right hand, and terrible cracks appeared in the snake scale armor on his body.

An angry and majestic voice came from high above: "You are crazy, how dare you offend the gods!" Immediately after the storm dissipated, the huge cloud eagle had disappeared, and the sun shone again. It was silent.

Only Enkidu was laughing, his laughter was hoarse and tired, but he couldn't hide his excitement and enthusiasm, and he shouted to the sky: "Horus, why don't you come down from the clouds and come to the battlefield? The great gods praised by all peoples are also afraid, you have been defeated by us, haven't you?"

The voice of Horus echoed over the battlefield again: "Those who are about to perish, what qualifications do you have to fight me? You just killed an incarnation of a god, but you will face the most tragic fate, no matter how powerful you think you are , cannot escape the curse of fate!" Then there was no more sound, and the god had already left.

No one spoke, and they didn't know what to say. It seems that Enkidu defeated the miracle performed by Horus, and Horus left without actually showing himself. Before leaving, he said a few words to restore the scene. It is not known whether the threat was true or not. .

Amon on the tower raised his iron staff and blew the horn. This was an order to retreat. The Aiju soldiers were in a daze on the battlefield! The two legion commanders, Long Teng and Blaze, suddenly came to their senses when they heard the order. They shouted the order to gather the army formation, and before the enemy could fully react, they quickly left the battlefield. Their mission had been completed.

The Uruk army did not launch a pursuit, nor continued to attack the city, but gathered the army and retreated slowly. Today's battle was extremely tragic, with many casualties on both sides, and the appearance of the gods at the end was a thrilling climax. At this moment, none of the soldiers had any intention of fighting again. The shock they felt was too strong, and they hadn't fully recovered yet.

Amon walked down the tower and returned to the commander-in-chief's conference hall. The generals around him were silent. Everyone was full of questions, but no one wanted to say anything more. There was an invisible dignified atmosphere hanging over everyone's hearts. Amon ordered Hongjiao Town and the camps on both sides to be vigilant, and then asked people to write a battle report and submit it to Pharaoh, and then went back to rest.

Amon didn't explain how to write the battle report, so let the clerks in the army do their best work. It should reflect everything that happened on the battlefield truthfully, without dampening the prestige and morale, let alone damaging the majesty of the gods. The knife and pen officer is very good at words. This battle report describes in detail how Amon commanded the army to repel the onslaught of the Uruk army, and how the two army leaders launched a heroic counterattack and severely damaged the enemy.

It was mentioned in the battle report that the army of Eju was protected by Horus, and the great god appeared in the sky above the battlefield, encouraging the soldiers of Eju to repel the powerful enemy. When the god disappeared, he also cursed the leader of the enemy. They will suffer the most terrible punishment in the world, and the Ecu army will usher in the final victory.

Read this battle report carefully, it really is the case! The pharaoh paid special attention to it, because Horus appeared, and everyone on the battlefield was a witness. Lacis II immediately summoned the ministers and the people to hold a grand sacrificial ceremony in the cape temple, and sent envoys to the front line to grandly reward the soldiers in the name of the gods.

As the commander-in-chief, Amon certainly received the heaviest reward. Before the war was over, he was named "the great god Horus favored, guarded the upper and lower echelons, guarded the dignity of the empire, inherited the glory of An-Ra, and spread the fame to the nations." General". The title is very long, and it is a high-status title. He also obtained a large area of territory on the outskirts of the Herac city-state south of Memphis, and the residents in the territory became his servants.

This was not just because of his military exploits, but because he had undoubtedly received the favor of the gods, not through some kind of symbol, but because Horus directly appeared on the battlefield. Pharaoh had to reward Amon heavily, and his title has surpassed that of ordinary city-state city lords. But in this way, Amon has also fallen into the predicament of being bound by the glory of the gods. In the war, he can only win. Unless he dies on the battlefield, he will never retreat, let alone fail.

But Amon didn't care about these things. On the night after returning from the battlefield, he ordered everyone not to disturb him, and meditated quietly under the starry sky in the backyard of his residence. Witnessing the miracles performed by Horus and the divine form shown by Gilgamesh, especially the sword that Enkidu slashed at Yunying, he seemed to be touched in the depths of his soul. It seems hazy and clear, and it seems to be captured.
