I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 457 Venus Goddess Inanna's Family

"Gilgamesh, what do you mean?"

As soon as Gilgamesh finished speaking, an angry female voice asked.

"I didn't call you out to make you do this kind of thing."

The next moment!

A beautiful black-haired goddess descended behind Gilgamesh with a gigantic figure of a thousand meters tall.

This is a goddess with a golden collar around her neck and a golden spear in her right hand. She is wearing a cloud-like white dress and a pair of small and delicate ankles are wearing golden strappy sandals.

The goddess has a pair of beautiful golden eyes, and she looked down at Gilgamesh with angry eyes and said.

"I let you come down as a hero god so that you can lead the city of Uruk to rise again, not to let you duel with others. Could it be that you were influenced by [Epic of Gilgamesh] and longed for an Enkidu?" Opponent?"

The Epic of Gilgamesh - This is the mythical story made up for Gilgamesh by the people of Uruk after Gilgamesh's death.

In this story, people's desire for kingship to be curbed is entrusted.

So Gilgamesh, who was as powerful as a god, met his opponent named Enkidu.

In fact, Gilgamesh and Enkidu are the two sides of Gilgamesh.

Before Gilgamesh defeated King Aga of Kish, he was the endless tyrant who forced the people of Uruk to build the city walls.

When Gilgamesh defeated King Aga of Kish and gained victory and hegemony [encountered Enkidu], he no longer forced the Uruk people to build a city wall and became the wise king of Uruk.

In epic mythology, Enkidu is the friend Gilgamesh gained.

In real history, Enki is the victory of Gilgamesh.

Enkidu is a part of Gilgamesh, and Gilgamesh is Enkidu.

"O Inanna! Goddess of Uruk, are you still unwilling to give up your past pride?"

Gilgamesh looked up at the goddess and said.

"Although in the past history, the city of Uruk has gained hegemony five times, and you also became the queen of the gods when Uruk city rose, but the era that belongs to you and Uruk city is over."

"No—my time with Uruk is not over yet."

Goddess Inanna said in a decisive tone.

"You are the first king of Uruk to lead the city of Uruk to establish hegemony. I believe you can lead the city of Uruk to conquer the Mesopotamian Plain again and make me the god of Mesopotamia once again. Queen."

Gilgamesh said with some helplessness.

"My goddess, it is to achieve your unrealistic goal that I propose to fight this human being one-on-one. Can't you see that this human army is stronger than our army, so I can only Beat him one-on-one."

Inanna carefully observed the army behind Roy.

Although the numbers of the two armies are different, it cannot be denied that Loy's [-] Athenian soldiers have more advanced and powerful weapons and equipment.

Therefore, when two armies fight, the loser will definitely be the coalition forces of Uruk, Larsa, and Ur.

"The enemy's army is indeed stronger, then you will defeat the King of Athens in a one-on-one duel."

Seeing that Inanna was convinced by himself, Gilgamesh immediately said to Roy.

"King of Athens, will you refuse to fight me?"

"I have no reason to refuse."

Roy jumped off his horse, walked towards Gilgamesh with his iron spear and said.

"I cherish the life of every Athenian soldier. It is exactly what I expect to be able to avoid a war with a duel."

"Arrogant human, it seems that my strength as a hero god has been underestimated by you!"

"I didn't underestimate your strength, so you don't mind if I pray to the gods of the Athens Empire for help! Even if you don't accept it, I won't change my mind."

After Roy finished speaking, the goddess Aphrodite descended behind Roy with a height of a thousand meters.

Seeing the arrival of the goddess Aphrodite, she poured a wave of divine power into Roy, and Gilgamesh said with a big smile while summoning a golden spear and walking towards Roy.

"You actually want to use the help of the goddess to defeat me. This is very fair to me. Don't let me down!"

When the distance between Roy and Gilgamesh was only 100 meters, the two stopped at the same time.

After looking at each other for a while, Roy took the initiative to explode at the limit speed, and rushed towards Gilgamesh with an amazing sound of breaking through the air.

Gilgamesh also rushed towards Roy with the speed of a hero god.

Clang!
At the moment when the figures of Roy and Gilgamesh passed by each other, Roy's black iron spear and Gilgamesh's golden spear clashed for the first time.

Seeing that the first confrontation between Roy and Gilgamesh turned out to be a draw, Inanna glared at Aphrodite angrily and scolded.

"Don't you stop? This is the battle between the king of Athens and the king of Uruk. Don't do unnecessary things to interfere with them."

"Your words are really strange!"

Facing Inanna's accusation, Aphrodite joked with a smile.

"Gilgamesh received your divine power from the beginning to come as a hero god. I lent my divine power to Roy, and even Gilgamesh, who is the protagonist of the duel, thought it was fair."

"Aphrodite, do you want to be beaten?"

"Can you still beat me?"

Aphrodite said without showing any weakness.

"140 years ago, the walls of Uruk were demolished by the Babylonian Kingdom. As the guardian goddess of Uruk, you were also severely injured and weakened by Marduk. Now you are no longer the ruler of the Mesopotamia. Queen of the gods, and I am not only the master of the Phoenician region and the Sinai Peninsula, but I will soon become the master of the Mesopotamia, and get the throne of the queen of the gods of the Mesopotamia that you have dreamed of."

"You—you little man, you really think I don't have the strength to teach you a lesson?"

Inanna, who was completely enraged, summoned immediately.

"Moon god Nanna! Sun god Utu! Lend me your divine power!"

Following Inanna's call, Utu, the sun god who guards the city of Larsa, and Nanna, the moon god who guards the city of Ur, descend behind Inanna at the same time with a height of one thousand meters.

In Sumerian mythology, the moon god Nanna was the father of the Venus goddess Inanna, and the sun god Utu was the elder brother of the Venus goddess Inanna.

The sun god, the moon god, and the goddess of Venus were combined to form the star triptych in Sumerian mythology.

Although Inanna didn't want to admit this relationship, but now she has something to ask for, Inanna could only let go of her pride and said.

"Father God! Brother! Lend me your strength!"

Utu, the sun god, and Nanna, the moon god, nodded, and poured their divine power into Inanna together.

"Dear sister, I will also lend you my divine power!"

A white-haired goddess with a face very similar to Inanna appeared beside Inanna with a height of [-] meters and said.

"As your older sister, I also want to help you."

"Ereshkigal—"

Hearing what the white-haired goddess said, Inanna rolled her eyes and said.

"You, a wandering deity who was belittled and humiliated by the Amorites, and even the patron saint of Kuta City was taken away by Nergal, is worthy of being my sister?"

Inanna is willing to accept the relationship with the moon god Nanna and the sun god Utu because one of them is the patron saint of the city of Ur and the other is the patron saint of the city of Larsa, and they can provide great help to Inanna.

Ereshkigal is a down and out wandering goddess, and of course Inanna would not accept her as her sister.
