Manga from the Age of God

"It is better to appease the emotions than to suppress or drive them out by force."

Yaxiu thought so in his heart, the energy of the small universe revolved rapidly.

But for a moment, with the Shenzhou underfoot as the center, a warm and magnificent radiance spread rapidly, illuminating the entire Mesopotamia region.

It has a certain kind of strong power to soothe the mind, and gradually restore the clarity of the beasts with red eyes.

After their spirits became normal, they stopped venting everywhere, and slowly withdrew from the place where human beings lived, returning to the peaceful nature they loved.

"But it's only a symptom, not a cure..."

He could hear countless cheers praising Ishtar, Ash smiled, and his eyes swept across the land that had begun to restore order.

"If there is no [anchor] to fix the shaking surface, the monsters will definitely fall back into anxiety for a few years at most."

"This shock on the planet's surface will probably take hundreds of years on and off to gradually calm down."

Chapter 73 The First Built Uruk

"This is Uruk? The city of all capitals that Anshen ordered Lugal to build on the earth. In the future, it will become a city in the heart of Mesopotamia?"

Standing on the deck of the Shenzhou Maanna, Ishtar looked down at a magnificent city below and pouted.

"It doesn't seem to be very good... As expected, Lugar is not very reliable."

She could feel that the power of the turrets built on the city walls was not even comparable to her release of Ma Anna with minimal power.

"Well, maybe this is the limit of Lugar. After all, not all gods can be compared with the Mistress of Heaven."

After a while, Ishtar commented in a arrogant manner:

"Now, if these scraps of copper and iron are only used to protect a human city on the earth, they are barely qualified."

A few days ago, Ishtar woke up and learned that Yaxiu had completely dispelled the monsters on the earth.

Soon she stopped paying attention to humans, and took her lover to tour the Mesopotamian sky.

And proudly told his lover that this was all under her control.

[How about it, it’s definitely wider and more beautiful than Elle’s underworld, right? 】

[This sky, including everything under the sky, is mine, and it will be yours in the future!I will share everything about myself with you! 】

That's exactly what it says.

To be honest, Ash was quite moved.

Although he doesn't care about the territory.

After that, Ishtar wanted to take him to the heavens to visit the gods of the Mesopotamian pantheon.

The two are now passing through Uruk.

Ishtar has long known about this human capital built by orders from the heavens.

With curiosity, she immediately ordered Ma Anna who was under her feet to fly closer.

Ash also looked at it with interest.

After all, the city below will be recorded in the ancient epics of mankind in the future.

And the human king who dominates the city, the king of heroes named Gilgamesh, will also completely cut the connection between man and god.

Ash can clearly feel that the residents of Uruk, whether soldiers or civilians, have a completely different mental outlook from other cities.

During this period when the earth fell into many disasters, there was no sense of chaos, and he lived in an orderly and peaceful life.

Even Shenzhou Maanna blocked the sun and cast a huge and terrifying shadow.

The people in the city did not panic too much - this not only proves that the Uruk people have the confidence to overcome any danger, but also have a tenacious belief.

The soldiers held their weapons vigilantly and stared at the sky for a moment.

It seems that as long as there is any change in Ma Anna, she will brazenly launch a counterattack.

Even if they should be very clear, on the ground, the weapons in their hands cannot reach the strong enemies in the sky.

Some people ran quickly to the center of the city, wanting to pass information to the palace.

Everything is in order.

"Let's go down and see Uruk before going to the heavens."

Ash suggested to Ishtar beside him.

The latter was immediately surprised.

"You're actually interested in Uruk?"

During the few days that the two of them surveyed the sky, Yaxiu showed a lack of interest in any prosperous city on the earth.

Even the city of Cusa, where the only believer is located, a rare human city in Mesopotamia that only worships the Lord of Hades, has no idea of ​​coming again.

As a result, now, facing a city that was just built, Ash actually wanted to go down and browse - although Uruk was built by the god Lugar at this time, it was not prosperous or gorgeous.

On the contrary, it is like a fortress that is preparing for war, full of savagery and thorn-like viciousness and simplicity.

The sturdy and spacious city is spotless, but there are no commercial streets, no fairs, no hawkers shouting on the roadside, and no groups of people laughing and chatting in teahouses and restaurants.

Only the countless humans in the square held weapons and trained against the scorching sun.

Those sweaty sword swinging movements, those sturdy but ugly armors that were tightly wrapped, couldn't touch the aesthetics of Ishtar as a beauty god.

"This is a very special city."

Ash smiled and said:

"Don't you think so? It looks fundamentally different from other human cities... Well, the humans living in it have a different mental outlook."

"You said so..."

Ishtar suddenly came back to his senses and nodded in approval:

"It's really different. In this land, when all human beings encounter disasters, they can only ask God, but Uruk expects to solve the problem by himself."

"They train themselves to be able to fight monsters in person...or hope to cover the retreat of civilians in various disasters."

"Oh, if other cities were like this, how easy the gods would be."

She said with emotion, and slowly lowered the Shenzhou Ma Anna.

The city of Uruk on the ground should have known the identity of the goddess. Many humans stopped training and knelt down under the leadership of priests.

Their hymns to God were not flamboyant, but they seemed sincere.

"The whole city seems to be deeply branded with Lugar." Ishtar smiled: "I remember when he was in the heaven, that guy had such a straight-forward personality, serious and boring."

Should be pragmatic, right?

Ash thought to himself.

The two flew down from Maanna.

Ash looked forward.

When I saw the gate of the city, there was already a figure with a faint sacred atmosphere waiting there.

There is no doubt that he was the builder of Uruk, Lugar, the god of the Mesopotamian pantheon.

"''Goddess Ishtar, you are welcome."

It was a tall and burly man who looked mighty and ferocious as a whole, but his face was unexpectedly calm and peaceful.

Lugar didn't show off his identity as a god too much. He wore armor that was no different from humans. In such a dress, mixed with a bunch of humans, he really looked like an ordinary human city lord.

He saluted Ishtar and turned his eyes to Ash again.

After a little surprise flashed in his eyes, he saluted seriously again, smiled at Yaxiu:

"You are also welcome, the companion of Goddess Ishtar, His Excellency Ashe, the mysterious god of stars."

The attitude was very gentle, and he did not publicly identify Yaxiu's identity as a foreign deity.

Seems to be a very talkative deity.

This was Ash's first impression of Lugal.

(Nuo Zhaohao) After several gods greeted at the city gate, they went directly to Uruk's palace under the service of a group of priests and believers.

...... It is said that it is a palace, but it is actually similar to a relatively simple temple.

There was also no statue of Lugal himself erected inside.

Perhaps because Uruk was just built, the earth suffered disasters one after another, and the order was chaotic, so many flashy things have not yet been planned, and only the normal life needs of the residents can be guaranteed first.

In the city of Uruk, apart from a symbolic temple of Anu, there are no statues and temples of other gods.

Lugal invited Ash and Ishtar to take a seat, and ordered his attendants to bring some delicious food and wine.

Then he stared at the two of them with gleaming eyes.

"Goddess Ishtar, your presence makes me extremely happy... Because of the construction of Uruk, I happened to encounter some difficulties."

"And most of the gods can't get away at present, Lugar can only turn to you, the powerful god of war!".

Chapter 74 The Seal of Theocracy

Most of the gods are currently unable to open their bodies?

Just as Ash was secretly guessing the reason, Ishtar was already showing an excited expression:

"Are you asking for me? Well... I'm actually very curious, what is it that can stymie you, the king of the earth who was personally appointed by Anshen."

"In front of the goddess of the sky, Lugar dare not be called the king of the earth."

Lugal quickly shook his head humbly, and then said:

"It's like this. For some reasons, in recent years, the monsters on the earth have been continuously frightened, and swarms rushed out from the mountains, canyons, and the depths of the ocean."

"This poses a great threat to human beings on the earth."
