At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
This is true for both Mashu and everyone in Chaldea.
Even Ishtar, who had collapsed on the ground and looked weak, was shocked and suddenly raised his head.
"What did you say?" Ishtar said in great astonishment: "You said Ereshkigal is the last pillar of the Three Goddess Alliance? That Ereshkigal? She also appeared? is that a lie!?"
Ishtar couldn't help but scream.
This is understandable.
After all, Ishtar was a character who once went to the underworld, was deprived of all his power in the underworld, and was torn into pieces by Ereshkigal. Now he suddenly heard that Ereshkigal Le's name, and also learned the news of her appearance, he would be shocked on the spot, which is natural.
only...
"Wait... wait! Senior!"
Matthew quickly spoke up.
"Is there something wrong? The last pillar of the "Three Goddess Alliance" should be Miss Ishtar!"
No wonder Matthew said that.
You know, before, Ishtar had appeared in front of Luo Zhen and others as a pillar in the "Three Goddess Alliance".
During the battle against Gorgon in the northern cedar forest, in addition to Quetzal, Ishtar also appeared. Not only did he claim to be a pillar of the "Three Goddesses Alliance", but the other two goddesses also regarded him as one of them. Looking at it for the sake of the alliance, this is definitely something that cannot be wrong.
Also, last time at the Chaldean Embassy, Luo Zhen had a dream about the white giant and got up early. Not only did he meet Ishtar in the lobby on the first floor, and they talked about the "Three Goddesses Alliance" Something
At that time, Ishtar was also talking to Luo Zhen as a pillar of the "Three Goddess Alliance", and even claimed that if she wanted to defeat her, she could do it at any time.
Now, Luo Zhen suddenly said that Ishtar is not a member of the "Three Goddess Alliance", which is too incredible.
How could Matthew, who was thinking like this, know
"Actually, as early as the first day we met, I began to suspect that Ishtar is not one of the Three Goddess Alliance, right?"
Luo Zhen said this.
"Don't forget, when we first came to this era, the reason why we met Ishtar was because Jin Gu, who was pretending to be Enkidu, deceived us into her presence."
That time, Jin Gu undoubtedly planned to use Ishtar's hand to eradicate Luo Zhen, the last master of mankind.
But if you think about it carefully, isn't this strange
"If Ishtar is really one of the Three Goddess Alliance, then Jin Gu has no reason to use her to eradicate us, right?"
After all, even if they are not companions, the "Three Goddess Alliance" has also concluded a non-aggression covenant. As long as Jin Gu does not want to take the initiative to break this covenant, he should not blatantly use the alliance's goddesses to attack. Being so unscrupulous indirectly led to Ishtar falling into the hands of Luo Zhen and being captured by Luo Zhen.
This attitude itself is very problematic.
Furthermore...
"Do you still remember what the goddess said when we first met face-to-face with Ishtar in the tower of Uruk and when she first saw me?"
Luo Zhen looked at Ma Xiu and spoke like this as if he wanted to wake up her memories.
"At that time, she said something like, 'Who are you? You have a face that I have never seen before, and it seems to be something special that is different from ordinary people. You must not be from Uruk, right?" "
Not only that, Ishtar learned that Luo Zhen came from Chaldea and the future, and his attitude was quite indifferent.
what does that mean
This means that she does not know the existence of Chaldea at all, nor does she know the last master of mankind.
This is a very strange thing.
"Jin Gu knows our existence, so does Gorgon, and even Quetzal is like this, which proves that the , a force that stands on the opposite side of mankind, should be very aware of the existence and nature of Chaldea. , knowing that we passed through six singularities.”
Luo Zhen said so bluntly.
"If Ishtar is really a member of the Three Goddess Alliance, isn't the indifference and confusion she showed at that time abnormal?"
That's it.
In addition, the monsters attacking Uruk from the northeast were necromantic monsters, which were not beings that could be manipulated by Ishtar's nature. Each question turned into an answer.
The answer is that Ishtar is not a member of the "Three Goddess Alliance".
"Whether it was last time or this time, when she fought with us, Ishtar did not use her power, and she did not even use half of her strength. She was merciful everywhere. This is enough to prove that she did not actually have any thoughts in her heart. We see them as enemies.”
All the signs finally showed this.
The only problem is...
"Then Miss Ishtar who appeared in front of us that night as a pillar of the "Three Goddesses Alliance" was...?"
Mashu asked in surprise.
Not only the last time the three goddesses gathered in the fir forest, but also the inexplicably gentle Ishtar who talked with Luo Zhen in the Chaldean embassy that day. Both times, it was clear that the other party was based on The identity of one of the "Three Goddess Alliance" is in action.
If Ishtar is not a pillar in the "Three Goddess Alliance", then what is going on
The answer is simple.
"That's not Ishtar." Luo Zhen said with great certainty: "That's Ereshkigal who has taken over Ishtar's body and moves."
Because Ereshkigal cannot get out of the underworld. In this case, if you want to move around on the earth, you naturally need a body.
And this body has no other choice but Ishtar.
the reason is simple.
"Ishtar and Ereshkigal should be sisters, or the same divine being, right?"
Luo Zhen explained this.
"Whether it is Ishtar or Ereshkigal, they are actually the Mother Earth Goddess."
"Ishtar is the earth mother goddess in charge of the harvest of food and life."
"Ereshkigal is the earth goddess who controls the corruption of plants and death."
"Ishtar is the being of "life" and "heaven", so she is the mistress of heaven. "
"Ereshkigal is the existence of "death" and "earth", so it is the mistress of the underground Hades. "
"These two divinities are mutually exclusive, just like light and darkness, sky and earth, up and down, left and right. It is very likely that they are two gods born after a pillar of nerve in ancient times split into two. sex."
As I said before, about 10,000 years ago from this era, which is about 14,000 years ago from modern times, the gods of prehistoric civilization were closer to the original concept, and even existed like the original elves, until After the destruction of prehistoric civilization, the gods encountered a catastrophe and were all slaughtered. The age of the gods began to decline, and the gods became weaker and weaker, eventually becoming what is recorded in various myths today.
Perhaps, in that era, Ishtar and Ereshkigal were the same existence, and they were not divided into two until they were slaughtered.
Therefore, these two people are sisters and each other's other half.
Under such circumstances, Ereshkigal can possess Ishtar's body to a limited extent and appear on the ground.
"I think Ishtar is who she is during the day, but once it's dark, Ereshkigal will appear in Ishtar's body, right?"
Luo Zhen's explanation made everyone stunned.
Even Ishtar is like this.
