[Comprehensive British and American] Venus Goddess

The foot that has almost lost consciousness is moving forward mechanically. Looking around, as far as the eye can see is a barren land where not a single blade of grass grows, and there are no tens of thousands of stars connected to this barren land, and there will never be daylight. endless night.

Compared with this piece of land covered by lifeless rocky ground, even the desert will look soft, and there will not even be sporadic plants that occasionally grow in the desert on the hard rocky ground, only almost overwhelming A lifeless land bordered by night.

He didn't know how long he had walked, but he could only hear his own footsteps, and felt that the people around him were stepping on the ground step by step with their soft feet that had lost the protection of their shoes, walking quietly beside him, but he didn't Look to the side, because when you come here, in this realm that has passed through the seven gates of the underworld, there is no clothing left on the people around you.

He came to the underworld with Inanna, and the moment he saw this scene belonging to the underworld, he had a feeling that sounded both inexplicable and reasonable—this is indeed the underworld.Because there is really no life on this barren land.

Because the land can't be seen at a glance, and it seems to be integrated with the night, it looks extraordinarily vast, and also extraordinarily... desolate.

There are no ghosts, corpses, skeletons, or even dead branches and weeds as you imagined in the underworld here. Obviously, everything that symbolizes death does not appear here, but no matter who it is, when you see this place for the first time , will not think that this place is still "alive", this place is undoubtedly the place of death closest to "nothingness".

After feeling his stupefaction, Inanna looked towards an unknown direction and said softly to him, "It's very lonely here, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Tim looked at the vast and barren land except for the occasional protruding rocks, and said softly: "I feel like I've lived here for a long time Even the heart will become barren."

Inanna took a step forward: "The 'Irigal' of the Age of Gods has lived in this place since the moment he was born, and because of the special power, he cannot leave here."

When Inanna said this, her sapphire-like eyes suddenly became a little hollow: "So, Irigal has always been the existence closest to the law, because living in a dead silence for a long time, the heart will gradually lose the ability to think. The emotions that intelligent life should have.”

"...The one who holds the power of law should never be a god with self-emotion."

The words that blurted out in a daze overlapped with a vague voice that didn't belong to her in the distant memory, and Inanna stopped slowly.

"Inanna?" Tim felt that Inanna stopped, turned her head to look at her, and then saw a look in her eyes that she had never seen before. Those sapphire-like eyes were barren and empty, which made people feel unreasonable It was extremely cold, with some kind of indescribable deterrence.

Although he didn't know what happened, his intuition told Tim not to let Inanna's state continue. He didn't bother to think about the secret behind Inanna's seemingly meaningful words just now, so he slapped on Touching Inanna's shoulder: "Are you okay?"

With a sudden slap, a picture in Inanna's mind that seemed to be blurred because of being too far away was instantly shattered. When Inanna came back to her senses, she saw the anxious expression on the handsome face of the black-haired and blue-eyed young man in front of her. Blinking slowly: "I'm fine."

Looking at the black-haired and blue-eyed young man, although his eyes were full of disbelief, but because he realized that he didn't intend to say more, he still put down the hand on her shoulder without asking anything, Inanna's eyes couldn't help but Showed a faint smile.

When she took a step, her eyes flashed solemnly. She couldn't remember what she said just now, but there is no doubt that what she said just now was said to her by someone in the past Yes, but if that's the case, it's impossible for her to have such a vague impression of a person whose words can remain in her memory for so long. This is more like... the influence of some kind of magic.

Inanna's eyes darkened, it seemed that something happened here and she wanted to have a good talk with Gugalana.

Under the guidance of Inanna, the two of them walked for a while and saw strange rocks with a very special shape—without any traces of artificial creation, these unidentified materials rising from the ground, lifeless stones distorted into a Weird, it seems to be some kind of "door" that has no access control and is only used for symbolic purposes.

But when he walked beside Inanna and walked in front of this "door", he knew that his behavior of guessing the unknown domain based on appearance and existing cognition was inherently fallacious, and "door control" existed. Suddenly, a certain feeling that came from nowhere made him stop, as if some kind of deep-rooted psychological suggestion-"Don't stop here, something bad will happen", this thought arose At the same time, the footsteps stopped naturally.

Then Tim noticed a small floating ball of light that came from nowhere. Based on its appearance, it is believed that this thing is a will-o'-the-wisp.

Then, he saw Inanna slowly stretching out her index finger towards the ball of light. When Inanna's index finger lightly touched the ball of light, something that shocked him happened. The white turban disappeared in an instant.

With the disappearance of the white turban on Inanna's head, he felt that the feeling like a psychological suggestion that made him unable to have the idea of ​​going through this door with his own will disappeared at the same time.

He remembered that in the legend of Inanna going to the underworld, "Inanna" would pass through the seven gates of the underworld, and each gate would take away a piece of clothing from "Inanna" that symbolized her power. When "Na" walks in front of her sister "Irigal", she will lose all powers and covering clothes, and suffer humiliation in front of "Irigal" naked.

Tim still clearly remembers that when he heard this legend, the professor who taught the class said that this legend may have something to do with the funeral customs of ancient Sumer, because it is said that in ancient Sumer, the burial ornaments worn by the dead were used for Those who bribed the messengers of "Irigal" who guarded the seven gates in the underworld, if the deceased was not buried richly, they would not be able to reach "Irigal".

The interest at the time turned into complex emotions such as anger, worry, and heartache. Although Inanna didn't explain it, Tim knew that it was definitely the first gate of Hades. Gao raised one eyebrow, intending to question Inanna who had avoided talking about this matter.

Inanna, who is very sensitive to people's emotional changes, seemed to be completely unaware of his complicated emotions, and explained: "The one just now is the emissary of 'Irigal', the guard of the first gate of the underworld, and is in the underworld. A spiritual body with legal authority."

"Its existence proves that this underworld does have the existence of the 'Irigal' godhead." Inanna said as she walked forward without stopping.

As a person with a brain like the most sophisticated intelligent machine, Tim can process different irrelevant information in parallel at the same time. Naturally, it is impossible for Tim to be diverted from the topic. Did not say.

From the moment he realized that it was not an easy matter for her to bring Damian back to Inanna, but he chose to believe her, he should be mentally prepared for the harm she might experience, but she unexpectedly Willing to do this for Damian...

Tim wore a soft black wig, and Inanna, who couldn't see the beautiful long hair like golden silk at all, had a very gentle look in her eyes: "You really like Damian."

Inanna blinked when she heard the words, and thought for a while. Although she didn't feel the slightest negative emotion from Tim when he said these words, these words really sounded very similar to Gu Jialan's words. The sentences related to the emotion of jealousy mentioned in the materials I read for her about how humans get along with their other half.

So she turned her head, looked at Tim, and used the sentences provided in the information that should be used when the object of the other half's jealousy is not emotionally competitive with the other half, and said slowly while recalling: "I really like him very much. , but I love you."

Tim was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and after recovering, he bent down and touched her lips quickly, and then laughed and said: "I don't mean to be jealous with the devil bastard, I'm just innocent. I really think you two have a good relationship, but..."

"Well, I'm very happy, I love you too," when the black-haired and blue-eyed young man said these words, the topaz-like blue eyes seemed to be embedded in tens of thousands of things that are not in the space of the underworld. Like the stars, they are astonishingly beautiful in her eyes.

Stretching out his hand to touch the black wig, Tim smiled slightly: "Then, let's hurry up and bring back your favorite Damian."

Inanna came back to her senses, blinked her eyes, and while walking towards the second door, she said to Tim beside her, "No, it's Damian we like." Although the two unrelated The brothers have always shown a bad relationship, but she can feel that there is an unbreakable bond between them. This kind of relationship can never be described as simple like or hate, but if you have to choose between the two, then definitely Not annoying.

When Tim heard the words, he imagined the scene of him and Damian being "brothers and friends", and the corner of his mouth twitched suddenly: "I didn't even realize that you still have the talent to tell horror stories."

Then, in the next six doors, each time a door is passed, Inanna will lose one of the ornaments, turban, wig, palla, gold ring, gold jewelry, lapis lazuli necklace, and finally lapis lazuli Walking stick, when passing through the seventh gate, Inanna's body was already like a newborn baby, and there was nothing she didn't have at birth.
