Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

Today, the plains of Mesopotamia still look like clear skies.

The sky he saw was a clear blue, with white clouds floating quietly on the curtain of the blue sky.

The brilliance of the sun is very dazzling, and the golden sunlight falls on this land in the two river basins.

A new day has come, and the people who are trying to survive on this land have begun a new round of struggle against fate.

In the distance, in the palace of Uruk.

The bustling crowd kept shuttling back and forth, starting a new day of reporting tasks.

On the throne of the divine tower, a mysterious man slowly opened his eyes, and scarlet eyes symbolizing the blood of God filled his pupils.

"King, are you awake?"

Seeing Gilgamesh wake up, the chief priest standing under the throne showed a surprised look. He was about to report today's work, but saw Gilgamesh, who had just woken up, slowly raise his palm.

He looked He asked the chief priest below:"How long have I slept? Siduli"

"Report back to the king, you have slept for three hours since yesterday."

Three hours...it's really a rare rest.……

"I see."

Gilgamesh nodded towards Siduri with a slightly tired look on his face.

"So King, Uruk’s job today is……"

Siduri was about to report today's arrangements to the king, but Gilgamesh shook his head and ordered:"Put aside the work first, Siduli. Let those useless guys wait outside for a while. , I have other things to do now."

"yes……"

Siduri lowered her head.

After saying that, Gilgamesh looked down at the unreliable white-haired magician below.

Then he asked in a deep voice:"Merlin, where did the powerful foreign aid you mentioned go? Why hasn't he arrived in Uruk for so long?"

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Ah... after so long, logically he should have come out by now. What's going on?"

Merlin was also confused about Gilgamesh's question.

Although this time it was because of his negligence that he forgot to tell Xia Yuan not to teleport directly to the coordinates inside Uruk. As a result, the moment he landed, he He was ejected from the defensive barrier Gilgamesh had set up in Uruk and was even ejected into a certain leader's monster lair.

When he discovered it with his clairvoyance, it was too late to stop it..

No matter how fast he ran, he couldn't run from Uruk to the rain forest of Ur City in one breath.

But when he saw that Xia Yuan easily cleared away the monsters, he didn't stay where he was with Jin Gu. As he ran into the rainforest, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Not to mention that the fake Enkidu had all the properties of the genuine Heavenly Lock, and he also carried the excellent Magical Furnace Heart and the Holy Grail.

If Xia Yuan was really harassed by those monsters. If a battle breaks out with Jin Gu, it will be difficult for them to provide timely support.

However, the rain forest is not a simple place. There is also a powerful god there, and because of the existence of that god. , even he and Gilgamesh's clairvoyance couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.

However, according to the information brought back by Assassion and Saber from their last investigation, they knew that although the gods occupying there were powerful, they were not the same as the leaders of the monsters. Same.

They just imprisoned humans in Ur City and did not carry out large-scale massacres or sacrifices.

With Xia Yuan's current strength, it should not be a problem to escape. There was no movement after the rain forest? He never came out again.

Could it be that he was caught by the goddess? It's impossible...

I don't want to believe it, but this is the most likely thing at the moment..

After analyzing the situation, Merlin couldn't help but think about the worst possibility, and then offered to solve it.

"King Gilgamesh, my friend has entered the territory of the city of Ur and may be in danger now, so please allow me to go there to support him."

"oh? Did you also offer to work overtime? Merlin."

Seeing Merlin volunteering, Gilgamesh couldn't help but feel a flash of surprise in his eyes. He knew Merlin's character very well.

Although he has excellent abilities, he is essentially a loser who only wants to fish for fish. Although the clairvoyance is both Ex-level, it can only see the present, and its limitations are too great. Since he summoned Merlin to this era, the mission given to this idiot has not been completed yet.

I've been looking for him for several months but I haven't found him yet. What does this king want from you?

If it weren't for the fact that he is pretty good and it's time for him to hire someone, he must use the name of the King of Uruk. Punishing Merlin for dereliction of duty.

But now this guy actually asked to go out, which really surprised him.

It seemed that this guy really valued that so-called friend. In this case...

Gilgamesh's mind. He came up with an interesting idea.

He looked at Merlin below and scolded him.

"Idiot, you haven't completed your mission yet. How can you have time to hang out in fringe areas like Ur City?"

"Complete the task assigned to you by this king honestly and go get the tablet of destiny back, do you understand?"

"Ala……? Although I know that I am a bit derelict in not finding the Destiny Clay Tablet, but my friend, if you don’t care about it,……"

After being scolded by Gilgamesh, Merlin wanted to defend himself, but Gilgamesh mercilessly grabbed a clay tablet next to him and threw it to him.

"You don’t need to think too much about that matter. Since it is the helper you recommended, there must be corresponding excellence, and I will naturally be attracted to it."

"But for the task of finding the Destiny Clay Tablet, there is no suitable person to send out in Uruk except you, who also has Ex-level clairvoyance. It just so happens that the offensive of Warcraft has weakened recently. With the excellent command of Archer and Lancer on the other side of the battle line, there will be no problem in resisting the tide of beasts."

"Therefore, I plan to send Assassion and Rider to Ur to check the situation on your behalf."

After thinking for a while, Gilgamesh came up with a relatively satisfactory decision.

"Compared to you who cannot see the situation in the rainforest, Assassion, who has infiltrated Ur City once, is obviously more suitable for this operation. With the support of highly mobile Rider, there should be no problems."

"Eh?"

Hearing this, Merlin blinked and was a little surprised by Gilgamesh's arrangement.

After all, sending two main servants to meet Xia Yuan at the same time is a bit too extravagant no matter how you think about it.……？

"Humph, don't wonder, Merlin. Don't forget that I also have a pair of good eyes."

Seeing Merlin's confusion, Gilgamesh pointed to his scarlet eyes and simply explained:"Although he is not the king in the same time and space. But I can still get a glimpse of that interesting war."

"It just so happened that Assassion felt deeply guilty because of the last time he and Saber acted together, sneaking into Ur City to gather information, but Saber died on the way back. so,���The king decided to let him go to that place again to perform the task. I believe he will never refuse."

Hearing the mention of Assassion and Saber from Gilgamesh's mouth, Merlin couldn't help but ask:"Oh? Is the Eastern warrior still feeling guilty for not being able to protect the young Christian saint?"

"That's right."

Gilgamesh nodded and said helplessly:"Although the task has been successfully completed. But since he came back from that mission, he has been clamoring to go back and fight the leopard man to the death. If Archer and Rider hadn't suppressed him, he would have committed suicide long ago."

"Really, these Eastern warriors are all troublemakers."

"After all, there are real gods in that area, and they have turned the city of Ur into a kingdom of gods on earth. Just the fact that he can escape from the gods and bring out important information is surprising enough."

"Yes, it is because of my trust in his abilities that I let him take over this mission."

"But...if he is allowed to go there again, will he cause any trouble because he can't control his impulse?"

Merlin was legitimately suspicious of the Eastern warrior of the Assassion class.

If the entire plan was delayed due to impulsiveness, Xia Yuan would not be the only one in danger.

They might even be annihilated. In the city of Ur

"Humph, you don't have to worry about this. Assassion has promised me that he will never act out of anger. I am still willing to believe in the warrior's integrity and the promises he made. And the weird Rider also comes from the same place as Assassion. If there are restrictions, I believe Assassion will not be unable to distinguish priorities."

"That's it, then I understand……"

After listening to Gilgamesh's explanation, Merlin nodded slightly in approval.

Compared with knowing people and utilizing them well, he is far inferior to Gilgamesh. And the other party is the king, he is just a helper, so in this kind of matter, he can only obey the arrangements of the most ancient king

"Okay, now that I've said so much, you shouldn't have any worries anymore, right, Merlin?"

"If not, then get out of Uruk immediately and continue looking for the tablets of destiny. Leave other matters to me."

"Is there anything else you would like to add to this arrangement?"

"Ahaha, no, no."

Seeing that his idea of going out to find Xia Yuan to take advantage of the opportunity was discovered by the other party, Merlin's expression was a little embarrassed, but he did not defend himself.

If he didn't want to bear Gilgamesh's anger, he could only smile bitterly. He bit the bullet and took on this mission.

But before taking action, he couldn't help but complain a lot about this troublesome king.

Destiny Clay Tablet, Destiny Clay Tablet... such things. He just lost it, and even lost it somewhere he couldn't see.

The whole of Mesopotamia was so vast that even clairvoyance couldn't find it. Where could he look for it? He was really a troublemaker. King...

But now that the matter has come to this, he can only continue to look for it.

……

……

I walked to the palace of Uruk in despair, and passed by the bustling crowd at the entrance of the palace.

Arriving at the outskirts of the temple, Merlin raised his head and looked at the scorching sun in the sky, his expression a little depressed.

Gilgamesh has given the order.

Let him first arrange for Assassion and Rider to go to Ur, and then immediately leave Uruk and go outside to find the tablet of destiny.

And this time the other party also issued a fatal order: not to come back until the Destiny Clay Tablet is found.

Each one of them really knows how to torment people.

Compared with this king, he suddenly missed the days when he was a court magician in Britain.

Although little Al is in some trouble, at least he doesn't have to be as tired as he is now.

And Yuan...

He stared in the direction of the rain forest and sighed deeply.

Where are you? If you come to help, I shouldn't have to work overtime like this...

He couldn't help but think.
