After deciding on the follow-up plan, Luo Zhen and others quickly withdrew from the tower and stopped staying.
Gilgamesh had to deal with a lot of matters, ranging from wars to family affairs, and he handled them all personally. He was so busy that he almost didn't have time to sleep. How could he put aside his affairs temporarily to spend time with Luo Zhen and others? Consultation, that is already a great gift.
Looking at his workload, even Luo Zhen couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
You know, Luo Zhen has not been the leader of a force in other worlds, handling various affairs, but it is precisely because of this that he understands how much Gilgamesh has to pay with this workload. Energy and labor.
To put it bluntly, this is simply not something that humans can do, and only a half-human, half-god wise king like Gilgamesh can survive it.
But even so, Gilgamesh couldn't help but say something when Luo Zhen left.
"I am very busy, very busy. You can be regarded as a talented person. Come back quickly after handling the matter. For the sake of the mind you showed yesterday, I can make an exception and let you become an auxiliary officer to help The king handles matters."
This is an extremely exaggerated promotion.
If Luo Zhen really becomes an assistant officer, he will be on an equal footing with Siduli, the chief priest of the sacrificial site. One can imagine how exaggerated this promotion is.
And Gilgamesh couldn't help but make such a promotion. Firstly, he must be really interested in Luo Zhen's performance yesterday, and secondly, he may be really bored by so many affairs.
Therefore, Luo Zhen did not hesitate and left on the spot.
Just kidding, although he has the ability to handle many things like Gilgamesh, it is definitely not polite to make him work as hard as Gilgamesh.
Luo Zhen could predict that once he really became Gilgamesh's assistant, he would be overwhelmed by various large and small affairs with almost no time to rest.
For such a thankless task, Luo Zhen felt that he should just run away as fast as he could.
Of course, Matthew, Merlin, Anna and Ishtar all came out together.
Siduli also came out to see Luo Zhen and others off.
However, Siduli was only sent outside the tower.
"Next, I have to go back to help the king handle the affairs, so I will send you here." Siduli said solemnly: "The passes have been issued to you, and you have the right to enter and exit Uruk freely. , this trip must be quite dangerous, so please be careful."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Siduli.
"Don't worry, Miss Siduli." Matthew responded gently: "We will definitely be careful."
"That's right." Merlin laughed and said, "Let's leave aside the head-on battle, but when it comes to deception, don't look at me like this. I'm actually very good at it, right?"
"That's right." Anna couldn't help but interrupt immediately and said coldly: "Merlin is the best at lying. It's best to die."
"Fu! Fufu!" Sitting on Luo Zhen's shoulder, Fufu also shouted in agreement.
"Ahem" Merlin coughed.
Ishtar, on the other hand, was boastful.
"Now that I've taken action, what else do you have to worry about, Siduli."
Ishtar said this matter-of-factly.
As everyone knows, in the hearts of everyone, this goddess is actually not very reliable.
(I hope this goddess doesn’t lose her temper halfway.)
Luo Zhen thought this silently in his heart and looked at Siduli.
At this glance, Luo Zhen saw that for some reason, Siduli seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Luo Zhen was confused at first, and then he seemed to understand something and said, "Are you thinking about Jin Gu?"
That's right.
Siduli was thinking about Jin Gu, which Luo Zhen could see in the tower.
When it comes to Jin Gu, Siduli has always looked very complicated. She would choose to come out to see her off at this busy time. It must be for Jin Gu's sake, right
as expected...
"Jin Gu...?" Siduli said with a sigh: "So that's his name. I knew that that person could never be Enkidu."
Siduli looked a bit mixed.
"Miss Siduri..." Matthew asked hesitantly: "Miss Siduri and Enkidu should have some contact, right?"
"...Yes." Siduli lowered her eyes and said: "A long time ago, I have often been in and out of the tower as the king's assistant, and that person became close friends with the king after the battle. , became a friend of mankind, and contributed a lot to Uruk. For us citizens of Uruk, that person was a rare gentle brave man. If it weren’t for him, there would be no one in Gugalan. When it causes floods to submerge the earth, mankind will have perished."
In other words, to the residents of Uruk, Enkidu is a hero, a benefactor, and a familiar companion.
Judging from Siduri's appearance, she must have a deep friendship with Enkidu, and her relationship with Gilgamesh seems to be more than just a king and an assistant.
Judging from her position, as the chief priest, Siduri must have had frequent interactions with Gilgamesh and Enkidu, who are demigods and weapons made by gods, right
Therefore, Siduri couldn't help but feel worried after hearing about things related to Enkidu.
"That one is King Gilgamesh's friend, and he is also the only brave man who can be equal to the king. In the past, when the king carried out tyranny, it was that one who always gave the king advice and made his destiny come true. The king who died alone can put his arms around and express joy, and feel joy from the bottom of his heart."
Siduli spoke slowly as if she was recalling all this.
"Although Enkidu stubbornly believes that he is a prop and a weapon, I think he is a very gentle human being. What threatens Sumer now is definitely a fake pretending to be Enkidu. The real Enkidu He has died a long time ago, and the king personally saw him off, and his body was buried in the underworld. It is impossible for him to become an enemy of mankind like this."
Siduli, who said this, still looked worried.
the reason is simple.
"Obviously everyone in Uruk thinks so, and I have always told myself so, but for some reason, I still feel a sense of closeness to the Enkidu who appears now. Perhaps this is because I am the chief priest. I have a hunch and intuition, and I always feel that even if he is not Enkidu, he must have some inseparable connection with Enkidu."
Siduli looked at Luo Zhen.
"I know this is a bit overwhelming, but if you can, Master Lorelei, I hope you can help me ask that person when you have the opportunity, and ask him why he hates humans so much. This is my personal request, please. "
With that said, Siduli lowered her head towards Luo Zhen.
Naturally, Luo Zhen would not watch helplessly, so he quickly took action and helped Siduli up.
at this time...
"Is that what people say?" Merlin suddenly turned to one side and said, "As the culprit who persecuted Enkidu to death, don't you want to say something? Lord Ishtar?"
With one sentence, everyone's attention was focused on Ishtar.
"What...what are you doing?"
Ishtar immediately took a step back, feeling guilty and embarrassed. His eyes kept wandering, as if he was a little embarrassed.
