Fortunately, Gilgamesh became impatient in the end. Since they had to prepare to deal with Tiamat earlier, they shouldn't be dawdling here.

So Gilgamesh said to Ereshkigal, "Stupid, collecting human souls so they won't be attacked is so stupid."

Ereshkigal frowned: "What did you say?!"

Seeing that Ereshkigal was attracting attention, but the other party looked even more unhappy, Tony looked helpless.

Although, Gilgamesh is not very reliable.

Gilgamesh crossed his arms and said, "Do you know how many people there are on the ground? How many souls do you have to capture to protect everyone?"

The man with the big white bones was stunned, and asked stupidly, "How many people are there?"

It's a bit ashamed to say that, although the underworld is underground, she dug this cave by herself.In the area of ​​Mesopotamia a long time ago, the population was small. Even so, if there was a big battle, the underworld would not be able to accommodate so many souls. If there were more people on the ground, I am afraid she would dig Hole will be exhausted, right? !

Looking at Ereshkigal's actions now, Tony suddenly understood Gilgamesh's meaning, and quickly added: "Now the entire earth has a population of 60 billion. If it is true that the world is going to be destroyed as you said, I'm afraid these 60 billion human souls will be stuffed in this place?"

Although the underworld is indeed huge, what is the concept of 60 billion?I can't even think about it.

Ereshkigal's eyes began to turn dizzy: "Six or six billion?" How long would it take for her to dig the ground for the underworld to hold all these souls?

This kind of work that exhausts her is definitely not to be done!

But in this way, wouldn't her path be unworkable?

Seeing that Ereshkigal had already been affected by their rhetoric, Tony quickly hit the iron: "Why don't we discuss how to defeat Tiamat who wants to destroy the world, so you don't have to work hard. "

The huge human-shaped bone squatted down on a stone pillar, propped its chin and thought for a while: "It's useless, you don't even think about defeating the mother goddess. As the god who created the creatures of the world, as long as there are human beings she created Now, she is immortal. That is to say, human beings are not extinct, and the mother goddess will not die either."

This news can be regarded as a shocking thunder, which shocked Tony and the group.

Having been a superhero for so long, there are also super villains who want to destroy the world, but the Avengers have always adhered to the principle of using soldiers to cover up water and cover up, and find a way to solve any problems that arise.

But the immortal villain who wants to destroy the world?They really haven't seen it yet.

Especially the precondition that if the human beings did not disappear, the other party would not die, Tony and the others were stunned.

How should Tony and the others think of a solution in this situation?Is it necessary to destroy all human beings before Tiamat?

When everyone doubted themselves, Reid, who had no fighting ability in this battle, touched his chin and said, "It's still the same problem, Tiamat is actually just the creation god of Mesopotamia, that is, The region where we are and the humans that grow on it are not considered her creations, right?"

"If you have such a premise, can you deny the concept of Tiamat's immortality?"

Being able to keep up with this theory and start discussing the concept of gods is probably something that only a genius like Rhett can do. After Morgan was inspired by Rhett, he also began to think about the possibility of this theory.

Following this line of thought, Ereshkigal suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment, and said dryly, "It seems that this possibility is not impossible..."

But she still hesitated.

Tony heard the word possibility, and said without thinking: "In that case, why don't we cooperate?"

Ereshkigal glanced at them, then whispered, "Co-op? Let me work with a bunch of useless humans?"

Even though the sound was so low, there were only Tony and the others in this place, so of course they could hear it clearly.

Although a little upset, they saw Ereshkigal's strength, so they could only grit their teeth and say, what a pity, they are a group of useless humans.

In fact, this is because Ereshkigal is used to staying alone in the underworld, and she was suddenly asked to cooperate with others. Ereshkigal was a little at a loss, so he answered like this.

Tony wanted to say something else, but Ereshkigal turned his head and said thinking: "But why should I cooperate with you? Since I can't collect so many souls, I just cancel the summoning and go back to the Hall of Valor." , In this case, I have nothing to lose, and the safety of human beings has nothing to do with me."

Tony suddenly understood at this time that Ereshkigal and Ishtar are indeed sisters, and they also had such a proud personality when they came into contact with Ishtar.

They have long understood that Ereshkigal collects human souls. In fact, they don’t want them to suffer on the ground. Although this behavior is wrong, Ereshkigal is only acting as the hostess of the underworld. Can do all the things.

Now Ereshkigal said that he was not for human beings, but he had a different heart.

If it was someone else, Tony would simply speak venomously, but this is a powerful goddess in front of him. At least the Avengers still need help from the other party. Will you cooperate with us?"

Ereshkigal was questioned again. She has stayed in the underworld for a long time. Although she is invincible in this place, there is no living creature here, no bright colors, and no one can follow her. she talks.

What does she want?

Ereshkigal said: "I want someone to talk to me in the underworld."

Tony Dang still refused and said, "Why don't I stay here with you."

Ereshkigal rejected his proposal without hesitation: "I don't want you to accompany me!"

The disgusting words in her mouth were self-evident, and Tony looked a little sad, but he was afraid that Ereshkigal had chosen someone else.

You must know that this is the underworld. If you stay with Ereshkigal here all the time, wouldn't it be the same as dying?That is to say, if they asked them to send a person to die, Tony would be the first to refuse.

Tony gritted his teeth, but this situation is not without loopholes to exploit.

"I wonder if this condition can be changed?"

Ereshkigal snorted: "In this situation, do you still want to negotiate terms?"

Tony was silent: "..."

The atmosphere was silent for a while, and Gilgamesh watched with great interest how they wanted to deal with this matter, and had no intention of speaking for them.

After a moment of silence, Rhett and Morgan looked at each other. During the battle, they did not get useful information, but the few words they heard just now had enough information for them to profile Ereshki. Galle this person.

Ereshkigal is a lonely person. Although she has an older sister, she has a bad relationship with her older sister.Although she is the hostess of the underworld, on the other hand, the underworld is her shackles, because she cannot leave the underworld.And along the way, there is no normal light and creatures in the underworld. Ereshkigal wanted someone to accompany her, but it was because of loneliness.

After exchanging their profiles, Morgan nodded to Rhett, encouraging him to speak up.

Rhett took a deep breath and broke the deadlock of silence with his own voice.

"Ereshkigal, if we fulfill one of your wishes, would you like to cooperate with humans?"

When he said this, both Tony and Ereshkigal were surprised for a moment.

Especially Ereshkigal chuckled and said, "Fulfill my wish? Do you know what my wish is?"

Rhett said seriously and sincerely, "I know."

Ereshkigal put away her playful tone, and said equally seriously: "Okay, if you satisfy me, I can agree to cooperate with you. But if you don't satisfy me, then you all stay with me." Underworld!"

After she finished speaking, she signaled Rhett to start their performance.

Although it was good to get Ereshkigal to agree, Tony didn't know what Reid wanted to do. He flew down from the sky and asked Rhett with a frown, "What method did you think of?"

Tony still believed in Rhett, they had met before, and Rhett was a genius that Tony admitted, and he believed that he must have observed what he hadn't seen.

Time was running out, Reid just nodded to Tony, then turned to Wanda and said, "Miss Maximov, can you still use your ability now?"

Tony was surprised: "Wanda? What do you want her to do?"

Wanda didn't expect Rhett to call her name, but she felt the power in her body, and then said, "No problem, what should I do?"

Rhett said directly: "I want to have flowers here."

Tony and Wanda were dumbfounded together and said, "Blossom?"

Ereshkigal, who was listening, also sneered: "This is the underworld, and plants cannot grow here."

However, in the next second, Wanda floated in the air with her own ability, and as her red chaos magic was released, the petals flew in front of Ereshkigal.

She opened her eyes wide and saw a sea of ​​bright red flowers swaying like a wave. Wherever she looked, red flowers bloomed in every corner, followed by a strong fragrance of flowers, even on the stone pillars. Two small flowers were drilled for decoration.

This is a scene that the underworld has never seen before, just like in a dream, the scene of flowers blooming in spring.

I don't know where the wind blew up, the flowers swayed, and a petal of the huge flower was blown away, and that petal flew towards Ereshkigal.

Ereshkigal could only open his hands in a daze, and the bony palm received the petal, but because of the lack of flesh and blood, the petal quickly fell through the gap and landed at his feet.

At this time, she lowered her head and found that the snake tail bones supporting her body were also surrounded by flowers. This situation was no worse than being surrounded by countless fluffy cats and cats.

"How, how is it possible, it really bloomed..."

His own underworld is clear to him, but Ereshkigal still looked at the scene in front of him in surprise.

At the same time, Tony didn't expect that Wanda could really do all this. At first, he thought that Wanda was just a supernatural ability controlled by the psychic department like Professor X, but now it seems that her ability is to rewrite reality.

Ereshkigal has been the hostess of the underworld for so many years, but she couldn't make the underworld bloom. That is to say, it is an established fact that the underworld cannot bloom. This kind of reality, so that flowers really bloomed in this piece of lifeless land.

Wanda's ability is probably more than that.

Thinking so in Tony's mind, he still put this matter behind his mind.

After all, the most important thing now is how to save the world in the hands of the Creator God.

The flowers really bloomed all over the underworld. After realizing that he was not hallucinating, Ereshkigal placed the hand bone among the flowers on the ground, and clearly felt the tickling of the flowers touching the hand bone. , suddenly a soft heart.

"You really did it." After Ereshkigal calmed down, she recognized what Wanda had done, "I am very satisfied."

As soon as Ereshkigal's words fell, it meant that she agreed to cooperate with humans, which solved at least two problems.

Tony also patted Wanda on the shoulder with joy, and praised the intern: "Good job!"

Wanda pursed her lips, and saw Kuaiyin also running to her side quickly, put his arm around her shoulder and said, "I didn't expect you to have this trick."

Rhett also breathed a sigh of relief. He just made a bet. Among them, it seems that only Wanda possesses supernatural powers related to manipulating objects. He didn't expect the task to be completed so smoothly.

Morgan also patted Rhett's arm fiercely, and the look in his eyes told Rhett——I'm proud of you.

Rhett couldn't help touching the back of his head, and when he looked up, Gilgamesh also had an admiring expression on his face.

It seems that they also gained the approval of Gilgamesh, laying a solid foundation for saving the world.

A gust of wind blew by, and in front of everyone's eyes was no longer the huge human skeleton wearing a wedding dress, but a little girl wearing a cape and a skull ornament appeared in front of everyone.

She has long golden curly hair, which has been replaced with a black hair crown, and the little black skirt under her body is decorated with skulls, which completely lacks the scary appearance of the tall human bones just now.

This reversal immediately surprised Tony and the others.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ereshkigal brushed her hair a little shyly, not quite getting used to the gazes of the crowd.

Only then did Tony say, "So you really look like this?"

Ereshkigal said, "Yes, is there something wrong?"

There are so many things that are wrong!This beautiful and a little shy girl is not the same person as the fierce human-shaped bones just now!

But of course they didn't dare to say this, so they could only change the subject and say, "Ereshkigal, can you release those sleepy souls now?"

Ereshkigal stuck her waist, snapped her fingers and said, "Since I have promised you, of course there is no problem."

After snapping their fingers, they saw a group of skeleton-like Galura spirits approaching from all directions. They lifted the lanterns containing the blue human souls and lined up towards the ground.

Tony and the others looked at each other, and finally let go of the big stone in their hearts.

Then several people said: "Now that this task has been completed, are we going to go back?"

Tony wiped his face and said: "It's time to go back. The world is about to be destroyed by the founding god. You should tell other people and discuss how to deal with it."

He turned to look at Gilgamesh: "Where is the King of Heroes?"

Gilgamesh spread his hands and said, "Tiamat also has a piece of the Holy Grail, so my goal is the same as yours."

"Besides, with your strength, you are still far from being able to deal with Tiamat."

By saying this, Gilgamesh can be considered to appease Tony and his party. In this way, they have the power of the two followers of Ereshkigal and Gilgamesh, and their chances of winning are one point higher.

At the end of the matter, Tony said with a final word: "Then go back now."

When they came down, everyone felt uneasy. Although they also carried heavy news when they went back, they felt that the time to go back was much faster.

And when it was about to reach the ground, Tony was the first to receive the signal from above.

The first time they knew that the sleeping people had awakened before they reached the ground, which meant that Tony and his mission had been successfully completed, so people from S.H.I.E.L.D. and the FBI were already waiting for their return on the ground.

But after Jarvis linked to the signal outside, he told Tony another bad news, that is, the Avengers had monitored the changes in the east sea.

A large amount of black mud emerged under the seabed. At first, it was thought to be oil leaks. After approaching, it was discovered that this black mud could turn into deformed species and attack humans. This supernatural phenomenon directly sounded the alarm of the Avengers.

And from the investigation, it was found that this black mud will still move towards New York, and it seems that it is about to land.

Tony sighed. Although he knew there would be a change, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

The problem of Ereshkigal was solved here, and a large number of unknown creatures appeared on the other side. To say that this matter has nothing to do with Tiamat, Tony would not believe it at all.

Gilgamesh, who learned the news with him, said, "Not only that, but it has a lot to do with it."

"The creature born from the black mud is called Lahemu, a species created by Tiamat. They should be the first to help Tiamat find the way. This means that Tiamat has been summoned This world is not far away, you have to be prepared."

As the conversation fell silent, everyone finally saw the sun above their heads.

The moment they saw the sunlight in the dull underground, everyone squinted their eyes.

After getting used to it, they found that they were greeted by colleagues and the emergency department all around them, for fear that something might happen to them.

All five of them came back fully bearded, but because they had just come up from the ground at minus [-] degrees, all of them were covered with fluffy blankets and drank little by little hot water.

And Gilgamesh was not human, so he escaped by luck.

Now that the matter is over, Gilgamesh turns around and wants to leave.

It's just that he didn't expect that someone had already noticed his actions, and rushed over to Gilgamesh and asked, "What else does the King of Heroes have to do about this kind of thing?"

Gilgamesh put his hands in his trouser pockets, turned and shrugged and said, "You haven't found Ishtar yet, have you?"

Tony was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Gilgamesh to mention Ishtar. However, in the modern age of high-tech development, he hasn't found this high-profile goddess for a long time. There are indeed many questions in it: "Unfortunately, there is no Ishtar." Any news from Tal."

Gilgamesh said: "Although I don't want to admit it, I must borrow the power of Ishtar to defeat the Mother Goddess."

Tony opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Gilgamesh seemed to have discovered what he was thinking: "Don't you think that you can defeat the mother goddess with the weapons invented by you humans?"

Tony was silent, or so he thought.

On this point, Tony is still very conceited. The disasters faced by human beings should be solved by human beings.

If these servants are allowed to help this time, what will humans do next time they disappear?

They have also experienced many incidents of strange species invading the earth, and they have solved everything very well. At this point, Tony can confidently say that they will definitely think of a way.

Even if they got Ereshkigal and Gilgamesh as allies, Ishtar is too willful. At this critical moment, he doesn't think he should focus on finding Ishtar.

Gilgamesh was noncommittal to Tony's attitude, turned and left on his own.

Tony asked again at this time: "Even if you found Ishtar, how could you bring her back obediently?"

After all, when Gilgamesh first met Ishtar, he had a fierce fight with him, right?Tony already understood the enmity between these two people, and didn't think that Ishtar would obediently obey Gilgamesh's strength.

Gilgamesh left with only one sentence: "Of course I have my own way."

After all, he is the patron saint of his own city. Gilgamesh still knows Ishtar's character very well, so he has his own way to deal with her.

And where is Ishtar at this time?Why can't Tony, who has artificial intelligence and big data, can't find her.

That's because she was taken to a research base by a group of people after she fell into a coma. When a group of humans tried to disrespect the gods, Ishtar opened her golden pupils, and her divine eyes directly hit people's souls, directly killing them. Too scared to move.

Ishtar broke free from the iron chains that bound him at the research base in a simple and rough way, looked at the researchers in white coats in front of him with unfriendly eyes, and moved his wrist.

"A mere human, do you think I can't beat Gilgamesh or you?"

The next second, the base sounded a red alarm.
