In Mesopotamian mythology, there is a goddess who has been in charge of the underworld since her birth.
She is a goddess who controls the growth and decay of plants, uses snakes and dragons, can freely control the Garula spirit as the messenger of the underworld, and exists as the controller of "death".
In terms of divinity and power, this goddess can only be regarded as average among the many gods in Mesopotamian mythology.
However, because someone must be in charge of the underworld, and someone must be responsible for managing death, this goddess is assigned a thankless job. Although her divinity and power are not strong, they are limited to when she is in the underworld. I will become unquestionably invincible, and no god or heroic spirit can resist her judgment.
The name of this goddess is Ereshkigal. She is the mistress of the underworld, the ruler of death and the undead. She is also an earth mother goddess. She is well-known as the patron saint of the city of Kusa and is loved by mankind. of awe.
Today, the name of this goddess is mentioned.
Because the current situation is indeed inseparable from this goddess.
"The Garula spirit is originally the messenger of the underworld under that guy's management. Only that guy can emit the aroma of death that can envelope the entire fortress city, constantly bringing death to humans, and coupled with the attack of the army that can control the necromantic system, There is no other goddess besides Ereshkigal who can do such a thing."
Gilgamesh said so.
However, these words caused confusion.
"Please...please wait a moment!" Mashu couldn't help but said: "You said that the manipulator behind the necromancy monsters is the goddess Ereshkigal? Why...why does it become like this?"
"Yes." Anna frowned and said, "Isn't it the three pillar goddesses of the Three Goddess Alliance who attacked Uruk?"
"The goddess Ereshkigal..." Siduli also said in surprise: "Could it be that the goddess has also appeared?"
Matthew, Anna and Siduli, who didn't know the reason, were all surprised.
Everyone has always believed that the manipulator behind the necromantic monsters is the Venus goddess Ishtar in the "Three Goddess Alliance".
After all, the one in the north is the Goddess of Warcraft, and the one in the south is the Goddess of the Jungle. The third party should be the last pillar of the "Three Goddesses Alliance", that is, Ishtar.
Now, everyone was naturally surprised when they suddenly heard the name of the fourth goddess.
Not to mention everyone present, even everyone in Chaldea was shocked.
"Isn't Ishtar the manipulator behind the undead monster?"
Olga Marie was surprised.
"this... "
Roman's expression also changed.
Only Da Vinci was not surprised, but instead spoke with relief.
"I find it strange that the goddess Ishtar cannot be behind the necromancy monster."
This is a given.
"Ishtar is the mistress of heaven, the mother goddess of life who represents harvest and growth. How can she have the power to control death?"
Da Vinci's words awakened all those who didn't know what was going on.
As she said, although Ishtar is a great goddess who has received various powers from the gods, she does not have the power to control death.
In mythology, there is a legend that Ishtar once went to the underworld, but the result of that time was quite bleak.
It is said that Ishtar, who was invincible in mythology, only suffered an unparalleled collapse when she went to the underworld. This goddess, who believed that there was no place she could not go, relied on her many powers to break into the underworld. As a result, her power was brutally deprived of her, turning her from the aloof mistress of heaven into a drowned dog that could be beaten at any time.
Because, in the underworld, no matter how powerful a god is when he comes here, he must obey Ereshkigal's will, otherwise he will be rendered powerless, stripped naked, and brought to Ereshkigal.
This is exactly what Ishtar is.
Therefore, in Mesopotamian mythology, the legend of Ishtar going to the underworld ended in failure, and Ishtar was torn into pieces. If it were not for the resurrection of the shepherd god Dumuzi, he might have died. Her free and willful career as a goddess will directly end in the underworld.
Such Ishtar only lacks the power of the goddess of the underworld. She is a being in charge of "life" and has no power to control "death" at all.
In other words, the manipulator behind the army of undead monsters from the northeast cannot be Ishtar.
"Unless Ishtar, like Gorgon, possesses the power of the Holy Grail and can fuse the divinity of the goddess of the underworld and become a composite divinity, then it will never be possible."
Da Vinci's words made everyone speechless.
There were only three people who did not show any surprise from the beginning to the end.
One is Gilgamesh.
One is Merlin.
There is another one, it is Luo Zhen.
That's what Luo Zhen said.
"No matter what, judging from the current situation, we have to solve the problem of Galura Spirit first."
Luo Zhen spoke as if changing the topic.
"The war situation in the north and south has been stabilized. The necromantic army in the northeast has also been blocked from the city and cannot enter at all. Only the Galula spirits can freely enter and exit any place with humans, making them what they are today. Uruk’s only threat.”
If you don't want to find a way to solve this problem, then there is no need for Luo Zhen to remind you. Everyone knows what will happen if this continues.
"We finally rescued 100,000 people. If more people die for no reason, the loss of manpower and combat power will be secondary. By then, even Uruk will be directly destroyed."
Gilgamesh said this.
"Now, in Urukri, you are the only ones who have the ability to deal with the Galura Spirit and have no mission."
Gilgamesh's eyes fell on Luo Zhen, Mash and Anna.
"The king hereby formally gives you a commission to find a way to expel the Garula spirits in Uruk City to prevent anyone from dying due to weakness and exhaustion and having their souls taken away."
This is also the reason why Luo Zhen and others appear here.
Early in the morning, Gilgamesh asked Siduli to bring Luo Zhen and others here.
The purpose is to issue this commission.
"Once Uruk is destroyed, Sumerian culture, which is the foundation of human civilization, will also disappear. The foundation of human ethics and the salvation of human history will become empty talk. Isn't this what you want to see?"
Gilgamesh held out a hand.
"The interests are aligned! Please contribute your strength to this Uruk!"
Hearing this, both Matthew and Anna focused their attention on Luo Zhen.
Obviously, this is to let Luo Zhen make the decision.
Naturally, Luo Zhen would not refuse.
Whether it was because of his stance or his own personal selfishness, he wanted to find out more about Galura Spirit.
so...
"I accept this commission."
Luo Zhen responded like this.
Luo Zhen, Matthew and Anna returned to the embassy together.
Tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep all night.
