Up to now, Amon didn't need to hide anything anymore, and replied frankly: "Cain and his younger brother Abel once helped me, and as a reward, I gave them another kind of guidance, but my achievements at that time were not Gao, I didn’t expect to have today. They are not my students, and I have not continued to instruct them on the cultivation of higher achievements. Now that Abel is dead, as for Cain, I will go to him when I have a chance. Ask him something!"
Gilgamesh suddenly asked, "Did you teach them the secret of becoming a god?"
Amon shook his head lightly: "No, I call it the power of one body with two sides, and I was still exploring at that time."
While speaking, he imprinted a complex piece of information into the souls of Gilgamesh and Goret, which is the guidance on the original power, contains the secret of becoming a god, and is a summary of his experience in all these years of exploration. Ge Lie had understood the power of two sides of one body at the beginning, but it was the first time he had heard of the cultivation of the original power. As for Gilgamesh, he had asked Goddess Mu Yun back then, but Goddess Mu Yun did not give him an answer.
Only the envoys who accept the guidance of the various gods can know all this after taking an oath. But Amon has not accepted the guidance of any god system, and today is the first time he revealed this secret to someone other than his disciples.
He has no reservations about these two "old friends". The information not only contains the secret of the original power, but also explains the particularities of each god system, and the final test that will not be mentioned when guiding the god system to the angel is also explained out. Gilgamesh and Gelie looked at each other, both of them fell into deep contemplation, especially there were inexplicably tears in Gilgamesh's eyes, but the tears did not stay in the end.
They are also explorers, but in such a way, they have obtained answers that have been eluded for many years.
Gilgamesh finally understood why Enkidu fell, and also understood the meaning of Enkidu's last words before his fall. Enkidu shouted to him when he rushed to the gray vortex: " Jill, I finally understand! This is not the curse of the gods, but the judgment of fate!"
What Enkidu practiced was not the source of power, but a pure warrior. He reached the end of the human world with physical training. When the final test came, he realized the source of power, but it was too late for Gilga Mesh made it clear. If Enqidu succeeds, he will also become a god, the first god to break through the original power by only practicing physical skills, but unfortunately he failed.
After a long time, it was Gilgamesh who spoke first: "If I can get there, no matter how I get there, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the final test."
Ge Lie looked at Gilgamesh and sighed silently. As soon as he uttered this sentence, it meant that Gilgamesh would really not pass the "examination of fate, the judgment of the doomsday". Ge Lie understood in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
Gilgamesh picked up the wine glass and drank it, then looked around and asked, "Amon, is this the place where you lived since childhood?"
Amon nodded: "Yes, I grew up here, but the house is new now, and it used to be old here."
Gilgamesh put down his wine glass and slapped the table heavily, and sighed, "It's not fair!"
The meaning of this sentence is complex. In terms of ingenuity, Gilgamesh is no less than Amon. He was born as the son of the city lord, enjoying all the glory and incomparable dignity, he has the best teacher for whatever he wants to learn, and someone always tries his best to deliver what he wants. Gilgamesh's habits are proud and luxurious, but he is not an indulgent dandy. He has his own pursuits and ambitions, and has achievements that the entire continent envies.
And what does Amon have? Amon has nothing, he is just the son of a drunkard, a lowly miner, lost his hometown and relatives at a young age, compared with Gilgamesh, this is of course unfair. But Gilgamesh's words didn't mean that. He was not Amon, and he hadn't experienced all this. The nobility he possessed was also possessed by General Amon later, but he had never experienced the life that Amon witnessed.
If it is said from someone else's mouth, this sentence may seem hypocritical, but at this time, Gilgamesh really came from the heart. Ge Lie pondered and said: "Perhaps it is because life is so different that you need the endless tests. Gilgamesh, if you cultivate your original power, I believe you will be able to achieve something. But it was difficult for you back then to pass that test." It is an endless test, not to mention the last step of detachment and eternal life."
Gilgamesh was slightly taken aback, looked down at the empty cup in his hand, and said, "You are right, you are a wise man on the mainland, and you can understand the truth in just one thought. Back then, it was really difficult for me to pass through life and death. Now I am using another way to prove that it is not pure power, but an imprint in the soul... Ge Lie, every ninth-level magician has a different way to advance, have you experienced A life-and-death test?"
Ge Lie recalled: "I was promoted to a ninth-level magician shortly after the great flood. During meditation, I saw the ups and downs of the crowd. Their thoughts seemed to be the reflection of my soul. It is a very similar experience, but it is not entirely the endless test of the original power. It is a breakthrough in mastering divine arts, and the soul's comprehension only lies in its own feelings, and has not received clear guidance."
Gilgamesh grabbed the wine jug and poured wine for everyone, raised his glass to toast Amon and said, "Thank you!"
Ge Lie also made a toast and said: "Thank you for letting me understand all this and answering too many questions in this life. It may be too difficult for me to prove all the tests of the original power from the beginning, but at least it will not leave any unfinished things in this life. I'm sorry."
He is already a top magician on the mainland, witnessing the endless life is not a very difficult test for Ge Lie, but what makes people speechless is that the initial test of low-level achievements is difficult for Ge Lie to pass . And Gilgamesh looked back on his life and knew that it would be difficult to pass the "test of fate, the judgment of the end".
They are the top powerhouses in the world, and even have the power to fight against the gods, but in this life, it is difficult to hope to become the gods who transcended immortality. But listening to their tone, it is more gratifying than regretful, at least a lifetime of exploration has finally been verified.
After putting down his wine glass, Gilgamesh said to Gelie: "Actually, you can also reach the end of your achievements in the world, just like Enkidu, he only practiced physical skills, and you only practiced divine skills, and you can also reach the end of the world." Comprehending the source of power at the last moment is just... "
Ge Lie continued with a wry smile: "It's just that I don't have such a strong bloodline, and I can't practice anymore. I can only glimpse the light and shadow of the detachment when the test of fate comes."
Then the few people seemed to have a tacit understanding, and did not talk about this topic again. The secret of the original power has been understood. No matter whether there is any hope of transcending eternal life, people like Gelie or Gilgamesh will not change their minds because of this. Turning the subject, they talked about the situation after the battle between Salem and Enlil.
The city of Enlil was defeated, and nearly half of the main force of the giant army was injured. It is impossible to go out of the city to fight in a short period of time. But this city is very difficult to take down. The battle of defending the city is different from that of attacking the city. It does not necessarily require elite troops. It only needs to mobilize organized strong labor to go up the city wall. The city built by the giants of the plateau is tall and strong, and they have built various defensive equipment, and a lot of supplies have been hoarded in the city, which is enough to hold on for a long time.
The losses of the Salem Legion were also heavy, with more than half of the casualties in two consecutive wars, and the total population loss of Salem City exceeded one-tenth, and they were all elite laborers. A long-term war of attrition requires production and farming guarantees in the rear. Under the current situation, it is impossible to launch continuous attacks.
The best strategy is to defend and prevent the giant army from leaving Enlil City, and at the same time focus on recuperation and production construction in the rear. If the situation continues like this, the city of Enlil will surrender sooner or later, but there is one person who will never sit idly by, and that is the Assyrian Emperor Sinakh.
The Assyrian Empire is currently the most powerful period in history. The original eighteen city-states of the Baron Kingdom lost half of the city-states of Kish on the west bank of the Eudi River, and had to abandon the newly opened city of Marduk. The biggest loss was the ceding of six city-states in the northeast. This is equivalent to half of the original land of the Assyrian Kingdom, and most of it is fertile arable land.
The Kingdom of Assyria is now known as the Assyrian Empire. Not only has it acquired a large tract of fertile land and a large population, its social structure has also changed. The Assyrian warriors became the new nobles and the upper class in the new territory, while the residents of the former Baron Kingdom's fallen area were scattered and relocated and became the low-level laborers. The food and materials they provided supported the Assyrian army to launch a new round of conquests, and more Assyrian strong laborers were separated from production and became fully professional soldiers.
After the Kingdom of Barron expressed its surrender, Sinach was very ambitious, and he would never give up the Duke Plain willingly. What's more, he has already sent the giant legion to the Duke Plain, and spent several years building a city-state, which is equivalent to inserting a sharp knife into it. When the war against Barron is over and the national power reaches its peak, it will not accept the result of being defeated by the small city-state of Salem anyway.
No matter how much it costs, Sinach will continue to reinforce the city of Enlil. The expedition across the Assyrian Plateau will cost a lot, but how can the brutal Sinach care? All he cares about is his own achievements, enjoying the achievements of conquest.
Ge Lie analyzed Sinach's character, and he didn't need any great prophecy skills to know the strategy that the emperor would inevitably adopt. The foot of the Assyrian plateau might be full of corpses, and the continuous attacks would eventually break Salem city. For an empire like this, the power accumulated for many years suddenly rises, and it grows very fast. It seems invincible for a while, but its decline will also be very fast.
But before the disintegration and decline of the Assyrian Empire, the city of Salem was unlucky first, and it encountered its strongest rising period. Several people present here are the most prestigious commanders on the mainland. They saw the victory in front of Salem City, but they could not prevent the fate of failure in the future, because the opponent was a brutal and powerful lunatic.
Gilgamesh looked at the wine in his glass and said with a blank expression: "You two, if the city of Salem wants to gain a long-term foothold in the Duk Plain, it must first defeat the city-state of Enlil and expand its control to the mountains of the Assyrian Plateau. Under the current situation, there is no possibility of military victory, there is only one way, and that is to get rid of Sinach himself!"
Amon already had this idea in his mind, and when Gilgamesh brought it up, he also said, "Assassinate Sinach? He is not the Hattite king Lucier back then. I have already seen one in the battle." A ninth-level great warrior, and the commander of the army of Enlil City is also a great magician.
Sinach is so cruel, there are not too many people on the mainland who want to kill him, and his defenses must be extremely strict. Even if an expert like us tries to assassinate him, the possibility of success is very small. And there is another most important problem, the Assyrian Empire has embarked on a military route, even if an emperor is assassinated, it cannot stop the advancement of this chariot. "
Ge Lie lightly tapped the table with his finger and said: "So not only must we eliminate Sinakh, but also reverse the national policy of the entire Assyrian Empire to save the current situation. This is good news for everyone. The person you mentioned The ninth-level great warrior is the queen of Assyria, Semir. You may have heard of that great magician, and it is the sage of Assyria, the national teacher Faust."
Amon was taken aback: "Queen! She is the assassin who assassinated the saint at the Isis Blessing Ceremony, and Faust is the assassin's assistant! At that time, he was already the queen and the national teacher, how could he sneak into the world from thousands of miles away?" Ecu doing that kind of thing?"
Gilgamesh slapped the table and said, "So Sinach is a lunatic! The purpose of doing that is nothing more than trying to frame me and Enkidu!"
Ge Lie interjected: "Based on what I know about Faust, it might be his trick, but I never thought that Sinach would even be willing to send his own queen. After Enkidu, Semir should be Today's number one warrior in the mainland!"
Amon suddenly remembered what Yin Nanna had said. The gods agreed not to directly intervene in the battles of the world, but there is an exception. The mortals challenged or offended the gods. For example, Faust and Semile shot into the sky together. that arrow. He turned his head and asked Ge Lie: "If you want to get rid of Sinaher, do you have to cut off these two people first? I can find a chance to make a move!"
Ge Lie shook his head and said: "No, not only are they the most trusted people of Sinach, but Faust is also the most trusted person of Sinach, but we want to eradicate Sinach and change the national policy of the Assyrian Empire. We need the help of these two people. Otherwise, just killing such an Assyrian emperor will not have a fundamental effect."
Gilgamesh stared at Ge Lie and asked suddenly: "I heard that Faust is your friend for many years, isn't it?"
Ge Lie nodded and said: "Yes, he is my good friend, and we have a very close personal relationship. The reason why I say this is not because of my friendship with him, but because I know him well. I heard that Faust When I came to the city of Enlil, I knew that the Army of Salem was no match, so I came here. I am afraid you have not heard the latest news, Faust is also quite dissatisfied with what Emperor Sinach is doing now .”
He introduced what he knew about Faust and Semir—
Although Faust looks wrinkled, he is not very old, only in his fifties. When he was young, he went to the Kingdom of Hatti to study and studied under Ge Lie. His outstanding talent and inquisitive spirit once left a deep impression on Ge Lie. Later, the personal relationship between the two was also very good, and they often discussed various issues through letters.
Faust is not only interested in magic arts, he loves to learn all the knowledge in this world. It is said that he has read all the books in the archives of the Assyrian temple, and can even accurately tell the content of each volume, each page, and each line. As far as Ge Lie knew, this rumor was true, and Faust was honored as the most knowledgeable person in Assyria, and it was definitely not a lie.
Moreover, Ge Lie also understands that Faust is versatile, and he is also a scroll-making master whose level is not inferior to that of Nero back then, but he has not produced as many scrolls as Nero. Because Faust believes that it is not worth wasting a limited life on such things. He has two wishes, one is to use knowledge to change the kingdom of Assyria and the world around him, and the other is to seek the way of liberation for mortals.
Like the old madman back then, Faust tried to unravel the secrets of the gods and look for a ferry beyond life. He used another method different from Amon's, searching in the ocean of knowledge. It is too difficult for him to succeed. As the chief high priest of the kingdom, Faust does not have the experience and luck of Amon.
Faust met Sinach, who reused him, and with the guidance of the gods, he managed for many years and finally turned the weak Assyrian kingdom into a powerful empire on the mainland. It seemed that he had succeeded. However, Ge Lie received a recent secret report that Faust was the most staunch opponent of Sinach's tyranny, and he was reprimanded by Sinach for this. Queen Semir stood by Faust, and Sinach later The reluctantly implemented New Deal also accepted Faust's suggestion.
Faust and Semir came to Enlil City for another reason. Sinach wanted to massacre more than 2,000 innocent Baron civilians. Faust and Semir wanted to stop them, but Sinach took the opportunity to kill these The people gave the national teacher and the queen as slaves, and sent them to the Duke Plain to perform tasks.
With Ge Lie's eyes, he has already seen the fate of the Assyrian Empire's final decline after its prosperity, and Faust may also have foreseen it. After so many years of hard work, he definitely did not want such a result. The rise of the Assyrian kingdom has planted the seeds of decline, and it has brought tragic disasters to countless people. People like Faust may also bear the burden in their hearts. Great pain.
As for Queen Semir of the Assyrian Empire, Ge Lie also sent people to investigate, and even got a lot of information through Faust. Semir's origin is mysterious, only known that she was born as a commoner, and was an abandoned baby picked up by a herdsman couple by the river. When she was a maiden, she was as beautiful as a dewdropped flower.
