My Destiny Illustrated Book of Shape Moon

Chapter 753: Uruk's Laziness and Arrogance

The little donkey cart squeaked across the mountains and the sea.

"I am not joking. What I saw before was just a moment of embarrassment! My true epic has already been recorded on the clay tablets and will be passed down to future generations along with civilization!"

"Damn it, where did I put that clay tablet... Hey, don't stop me. I insist on letting you see how powerful the country I command is and how peaceful and contented the people are. Full of life!”

"No need to look for it, Gil." The green-haired beauty leaned against the car wall lazily, tapping her brain with her hand, "Everything will be recorded on the earth - what does the real Uruk look like? , and how you spent the rest of your life in such a ridiculous manner... I remember all of this."

"Hey, Honoré's Holy Grail (whispering)."

"Huh? Did you say something Jill?"

"It's nothing, we're here." The returning king pulled up the curtain, "Although I have been swallowing my anger, modern technology also has its merits, and today's Uruk also has a unique flavor... huh?"

After a slight pause in his tone, Gilgamesh's snake eyes flashed, and he was keenly aware of the disharmony in the city.

The priests who were supposed to stay in the divine tower are now taking steps and hurriedly heading in the same direction.

Even if it was for aid, it would be too grand.

"What's wrong?"

The curtain was lowered again, and Gilgamesh turned around with a calm expression: "It's nothing. I thought I still had time to relax before sitting on the throne, but now it seems that it is too whimsical."

He raised his eyes and looked at his best friend with green hair reaching his waist: "Call the cook back. I'm afraid he will be very busy next time."

"Don't forget to take care of yourself, Gil." Enkidu, who also heard the commotion outside the car, smiled slightly, and his whole body was suddenly shrouded in hazy illusionary light. When it became clear again, the young man in white maintained his posture by the window, smiling playfully.

"The world is over for the two of us?"

"I'll punish you when I'm free, bastard." Gilgamesh glared at Shuo Yue, completely rude, "Now, take me to the palace immediately."

"Okay, okay." Shuo Yue shrugged nonchalantly and snapped his fingers.

The light of magic shone, and along with the transfer across thousands of miles, they appeared in the spacious palace together with people and cars.

"ah!"

A small exclamation rang out, which was quickly covered by laughter.

"What's wrong, Siduli? It's not your style to be so surprised." The car curtain was suddenly lifted, and the king of Uruk took a bold step and passed the astonished female priestess. He sat back on the throne and raised his chin, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you have anything to report to me?"

"..." After recovering from Gilgamesh's sudden appearance, Siduli bit her lips and knelt on the ground as if she had already realized what she was doing.

"Please ask the king to punish me for my sins."

"Oh?" Wang's eyes flashed, "Siduli, my dearest chief priest, the smartest woman in Uruk, what mistake have you made?"

"I……"

Containing the guilt of dereliction of duty and irreparable regret, the female priest told a long story about what happened not long ago.

————

"Everyone, cheer up and be vigilant. Although the herd of beasts has retreated, if we don't keep it all together, one or two lone ones will pop up!"

On the devastated battlefield, a small team of scouts crouched down and searched carefully.

"There is a magic reaction in Area B in the southeast."

"Area G, the vicious bones remain."

"Oh, what a great harvest. This is point E. There is a large piece of snake jade!"

Wandering in the jungle of corpses, the patrol continued to reap rewards from the war. Unknowingly, they were getting further and further away from the human city and closer to the dark forest.

"Okay, that's it." The centurion said, announcing the suspension of this exploration, "We have stepped on the safety line - what are you doing, don't move!"

He tried hard to lower his anger and ordered the soldier who was gradually leaving the team: "What are you doing? Don't leave the range of magic blessing!"

"But, there -" the soldier turned back unwillingly, "I saw several complete dragon reverse scales!"

After a brief silence, the scouts subconsciously widened their eyes. When they looked at each other, they could see the joy flowing in each other's eyes.

If they weren't on a dangerous battlefield, cheers would have resounded through the sky.

resource!

Today, Uruk needs resources the most!

Whether it is the forging of weapons, the construction of facilities, or even the energy supply of magic arrays and divine spells, massive resources are required!

The dragon's reverse scale is undoubtedly the most precious resource!

Ordinary iron cannot break through the skin of a monster, but if it is added to the powder made from dragon scales, it will become as sharp as mud; a hundred-refined armor cannot withstand the tear of a monster, but if it is blended into the skin of the highest fantasy species The scales make it invulnerable and indestructible!

Not to mention the degree of increase that potions prepared from leftover materials can bring to the soldiers!

It can be said that dragon scales not only represent precious resources, but also directly represent the lives of countless warriors. As long as you get even one, dozens or even hundreds of soldiers can be helped, and it is more likely to benefit from bloody battles. Survive the battlefield.

but--

"No, let's give up." The centurion retracted his longing gaze and shook his head with difficulty, "That is no longer within our search range. The magic array spreading from the city wall has a limit. Once it is out of range, our breath will immediately Discovered by a monster!"

"My speed is very fast, and the dragon scale is very close to me. I only need to take one step to get it!" The soldier widened his eyes and said eagerly, "Sir, I promise it will only take one second, no, not even one second." It doesn’t take a minute to get it back!”

"Idiot! Don't you understand what I'm talking about! Since you still call me sir, then follow my orders and don't talk too much!" The centurion's eyes were arrogant and rough. "Are you going to sacrifice your life for a piece of dragon scale? A whole team of us will be buried with you!"

"There's no need to be so serious, Captain."

"What did you say-" The centurion turned around angrily, and the adjutant who spoke put his arm around his shoulders, showing an encouraging look.

"There's no need to be so nervous. It only takes a moment. With the speed of this great guy, we might be able to get the dragon scales back before the monsters can sense it."

The centurion frowned: "No, the risk is still too great. I can't joke with the lives of our entire team."

"It's okay, Captain."

"Yeah, we have no objection either."

"Those are dragon scales. If we can bring them back to Uruk, it won't matter even if we all die... Haha, I'm just kidding."

The scouts spoke one after another, almost unanimously supporting the soldier, and some even bluntly expressed what everyone was thinking.

"What's more, isn't there Miss Tia?"

"If we are in crisis, she will definitely come to our rescue."

The girl singing the beautiful voice on the high wall.

This is the reason why everyone agreed to take the risk and the source of their confidence.

"So, captain, there's no need to be so stubborn." The adjutant smiled, "The battle front now is not as dangerous as when you were fighting... Oh, he has already taken action."

As if he was worried that the stubborn centurion would object again, the soldier stepped forward, squatted down, and picked up several scales with a special silver cloth under the expectant eyes of everyone.

"Success!"

Feeling the rich magic flowing in his hands, the soldier smiled in surprise. He turned around and excitedly showed everyone the treasure he had obtained. But before the scouts could show the same smile, a shadow fell on everyone's eyes.

So huge, so... scary.

Click!

"Boy——!" The centurion's pupils shrank, and his eyes were instantly bloodshot. He wanted to take action, but it was too late.

Behind the soldiers, the Dragon of Babylon, Mushuhuxiu, opened his bloody mouth. With the bite of his gums, he ruthlessly bit the fragile human skull into pieces!

The brains mixed with blood exploded, and the soldier's bright smile still lingered, but his body had already fallen to his knees on the ground, and his clenched palms were loosened, and the dragon scales were scattered on the ground.

Sparkling like tears.

But no one cared that this rare treasure was covered in dust - although the magic array could shield the breath, it could not cover the figure at all.

When Mu Xiuhu Xiu swallowed the fragments of the bones and looked up to the sky and screamed, this scout team that had committed the crime of arrogance finally recalled the fear of being dominated by the monster.

"Everyone, take your resources and leave quickly!" The centurion gritted his teeth, gave the final order, held his spear, roared, and charged towards Musiu Huxiu.

Ding—Pfft! ! !

The scorpion-like tail needle penetrated his chest, lifting him up easily and holding him high in the air.

Blood dripped down the tail like a stream. Mu Xiu and Hu Xiu did not pay attention to the other people who were fleeing in embarrassment, but stared at the centurion whose eyes dimmed rapidly, without concealing the cruelty and joking in his eyes.

Do you think sacrificing yourself can save others?

The sounds of countless tramplings gathered together, causing the earth to rumble and tremble. Some soldiers had the courage to look back, and what they saw made their liver and gallbladder split.

That's - a tide of beasts!

The eyes of the monsters, which had not eaten blood for several days, were scarlet. Stimulated by the blood, they galloped towards the soldiers like a storm of disaster. They swooped forward and tore open people's chests with their sharp claws. Use your sharp beak to pierce blood vessels and texture, and bite their organs!

The screams were painful and desperate. They were obviously only a few hundred meters away from the city wall of Uruk, but how could human beings' weak feet be compared to the pursuit of the brutal beasts!

Are you going to die?

"La——"

The song came belatedly, and the monsters with blood-stained mouths suddenly stopped, their eyes full of ferocity and fear, and their crazy beastiality actually resisted the mother's will.

"——Aaaa!!!"

The singing became high-spirited, with undisguised anger. Finally, the beasts were afraid. They roared in a low voice, saliva mixed with scarlet drops, and stepped back into the forest step by step, leaving only a pair of cruel beasts. , eyes eager to kill.

It seems that as soon as the singing stops, they will pounce out at any time and take away the lives of the survivors.

But the singing will not stop. On the city wall, the girl holds her arms across her chest, as if she wants to put all her energy into it, singing like a nightingale.

Finally, the surviving people returned to the high wall, the city gates closed, keeping the enemy out, and the singing finally stopped.

"Thank you, thank you, I'm very grateful, Miss Tia..." With the help of the guards roughly, the surviving scout thanked the girl with tears in his eyes. The girl, whose face was as pale as paper, forced a smile and stretched out her hand. , as if wanting to wipe away the blood and tears on his face.

But the next moment, her slender hand fell, along with her body.

"Miss Tia!!!"

————

"——Idiot!!!"

A roar rang out in the palace, and the ruler of Uruk slapped the armrests hard, his hair standing up.

He was already furious.

"You were so reckless as to disturb the monsters and even make the unrelated people pay unnecessary sacrifices. You are simply guilty of a thousand deaths!"

"The number of victims reached 23, and there were only two survivors..." The head priestess knelt on the ground beside the trembling soldiers, "All this is because of my dereliction of duty. King, please allow me to personally apologize to the families of the deceased, and then come back to accept the punishment."

"No, it's not your fault, Lord Head Priest! It's us, it's our carelessness that caused all this!" Although his whole body was shaking, the surviving soldiers still mustered up the remaining courage and kowtowed deeply to the angry king, "We took it for granted that Miss Tia could help us. As long as Miss Tia was there, we could withstand any risks..."

As soon as the voice fell, Gilgamesh's eyes turned cold, and golden ripples appeared behind him. The treasure popped out and blocked the sharp blade from the right side of the throne!

"Cook, it's not your turn to deal with my people... No, what's wrong with you?!"

"You don't just have my mother, Jill." The usually warm green light in the eyes of the young man in white turned cold, "You let my mother's soul dry up to this extent. Even if this body is just a weapon, you should have the right to be angry-"

"Calm down!"

This time, it was Wang's turn to hit him on the forehead with a knife to stop his friend from committing violence: "Hey, cook, you are here, don't play dead, come out quickly!"

"..."

After the silence, the young man raised his head again, his eyes did not change, but the corners of his mouth raised an arc.

"What do you want me to do? I'll state in advance that I'm also in a very angry state."

"Stop talking nonsense, is this king that good?" Gilgamesh replied unhappily, "After all, it's your fault for leaving her there without protection-"

"As a guard, I can't disobey His will." Shuoyue asked calmly, "What's more, He has become what he is now, all because of your laziness and arrogance, isn't it?"

Only this time, the king looked away.

"Now is not the time to talk about these, let's go, this king and you will go to visit Him in person."

"Report--not good, king!"

"Damn it, what's wrong!!!"

Gilgamesh raised his eyes, but this time, the person who came was not a soldier on the front line, but a soldier wearing the uniform of the city gate guard.

"Someone is trying to break out of the city gate. We, we can't stop her!"

"She? Who is the one who violated the king's ban?"

"Her name..." The gate guard swallowed and said in a deep voice, "Her name is, Gauguin."

"She is the woman with long purple hair who entered Uruk with Lord Fujimaru."
