Pengpeng was stunned: "Lao Yue, you seem to have become more powerful!"

Zhang Chengyue said: "I have been practicing secretly to prepare for the battle with Gilgamesh."

Pengpeng asked again: "After we came out of the forest, I remember you said that you felt that most of your wild power was lost..."

"It's true, it's also written in the epic: Enkidu awakened and became a human. After leaving the forest and his animal friends, his limbs became stiff and his movements became slow." Zhang Chengyue said, "But losing does not mean forgetting.

When I came to Uruk, no, to be precise, since I met Gilgamesh, the sleeping power in my body began to awaken again, and became stronger than before, as if I felt my mission!"

He thought for a while and then said: "I don't know when I will challenge Gilgamesh, but it is definitely not to follow the wishes of those nobles, but to grow and discover my inner strength! It's like exploring

A whole new world of excitement until you can keep up with him."

Pengpeng calmed down and looked at Zhang Chengyue seriously. Since time traveling, it seemed that he had never had a good look at this companion and friend. His impression of him only remained as that college classmate.

The wild boy sitting opposite was as strong as Gilgamesh.

He has black hair and a strong, wheat-colored body that exudes luster and contains strength.

His eyes were like pure black glass, showing strength, calmness and wisdom.

If Gilgamesh is as blazing and flamboyant as the sun, Enkidu is like the calm sea water, which can also set off huge waves when it erupts!

By the way, he is Enkidu!

The only man in the epic who can rival Gilgamesh.

After being stunned for a long time, Pengpeng patted Zhang Chengyue on the shoulder and sighed: "You are indeed very courageous. It sounds exciting! But Lao Yue, don't think of this matter too simply. As far as I can tell, Shining

His power is more than just fighting a lion with his bare hands! Although he can't use aircraft cannons or ancient nuclear warheads to hit you, he is known as the son of God after all. He probably has the same ability as you, and maybe he can play better than you! And this

There may really be some ancient magic weapon in this era, but he just hasn't taken it out yet. How can you beat him with your bare hands?"

Zhang Chengyue was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that he was right, so he said: "You are right. I just want to tell you that I am actually not that afraid of Gilgamesh."

He looked into the distance and said leisurely: "How should I put it,... I am just an ordinary person in modern times, but since traveling to the ancient times, I have become 'Enkidu'. This is a very strange feeling. Since

Once you’ve got a good hand, how can you not try to play a few more hands?”

Sometimes fate comes faster than expected.

Kish issued an ultimatum, but Gilgamesh ignored it and actively prepared for war internally. The whole city was enveloped in a tense mood.

The work of building the city wall is being pushed more and more intensively. The north wall facing Kish has been repaired, but the other parts are only more than half completed, and the south wall is only built to half the height of the north. After all, Uruk is an area

It's so big that it's not easy to build a ten-kilometer-long city wall.

Zhang Chengyue and others were woken up before dawn to "build the Great Wall."

Pengpeng had just arrived at the construction site when a group of donkeys pulling bricks saw this lion who could pull bricks better than them. They were obviously unhappy and whispered in donkey language, whispering to each other, as if they were boycotting.

Pengpeng was so angry that the lion roared, and the donkeys were so frightened that their eyes widened, and then they scattered to work without saying a word.

Pengpeng was so angry that he was already sweating profusely from working till morning, not to mention that he hadn’t even had breakfast yet!

"I quit! I quit! Let's go have breakfast!" Pengpeng took Zhang Chengyue back to Jipal Palace.

The weather is bad today, the sky is gray, it should be about 7 o'clock in the morning. Pengpeng and Zhang Chengyue are hanging out at the top of the city, eating and waiting to watch Gilgamesh's "morning court".

"Know your enemy through constant observation!" Pengpeng whispered.

But it was still early, so Pengpeng couldn't help but chat: "By the way, you have the magic to manipulate objects, why don't you use it to build walls?"

"I don't want to be seen as a monster!" Zhang Chengyue replied, "And do you think it's easy to manipulate objects with your mind? The weight of an object that can be lifted with your mind is about the same as the weight that you can lift with your arms.

, and it is more laborious to place the bricks one by one in the right position than to position them with your hands! What's more, when people are doing things, their brains can be free to think about other things, so of course it is more convenient to build walls with their hands.

easy."

At this time, many people had gathered in the square. Unlike usual, the women were controlled by their fathers and husbands and were not allowed to go out. There were many more officials and groups of soldiers in the square.

"The atmosphere is a little different today, so depressing." Pengpeng looked around, "And Gilgamesh hasn't come out yet."

"Hmm, it should be soon, right?" Zhang Chengyue said while chewing the food.

Suddenly, they heard some kind of sound coming from the horizon.

Woo…………………………

It was like the strings of some huge machine emitting from a distance, streaking across the sky.

People in the square also heard it, and they all looked up to the sky and immediately started shouting!

I saw a black cross-shaped winged aircraft flying from high altitude in the north, like a huge fighter plane! But even though Zhang Chengyue and Pengpeng love the knowledge of modern weapons, they can't find such a big thing in their minds.

Similar models! This is an ancient aircraft!

"It's the sacred blackbird!"

"It's the sacred black bird of Ninurta!"

People in the square screamed in panic and fell to their knees one after another. Some stared at the sky with wide eyes and despair, and some lay down and trembled, no matter whether they were nobles or soldiers.

Pushing aside the panicked crowd on the platform, Gilgamesh rushed out and looked up at the sky. The "Holy Black Bird" was flying over his head. Although it was flying high in the sky, it looked like a giant black dragon.

, a dark cloud hangs over the city of Uruk.

Gilgamesh looked up at the sky motionless, his sharp eyes dimming, thoughtfully.

"Oh my God! There really is a UFO!!... And I didn't have a mobile phone to take a video just now!!" Pengpeng was about to cry.

Zhang Chengyue also looked up at the sky and could not move for a long time. The process of the "sacred black bird" crossing the sky just now was so clear and shocking that people will never forget it.

Zhang Chengyue sighed: "I told you there was a UFO! The last time I came out of Palenchiu, I had a glimpse of it, but the last time it flew higher and farther, it disappeared in an instant."

"But last time you said you saw a flying pig!" Pengpeng shouted.

Zhang Chengyue smiled bitterly: "I just said it looks like a pig! Anyway, it is completely different from the shape of the one today!"

Pengpeng spread his hands: "It means that there are all kinds of UFOs in this era, and you have witnessed them twice? Is this frequency too high?!"

Zhang Chengyue asked: "Thousands of years of history on earth are just a short moment in the universe. Why is it normal to witness UFOs in modern times, but impossible to witness them in ancient times?"

Pengpeng was speechless.

With a ding sound, another larger light spot lit up on the trunk of the World Tree, and the system prompted: "Information on ancient UFOs has been collected. The 'sacred black bird' is recorded on the cuneiform clay tablet text of the Mesopotamia Civilization as: Imdu

Gud (im.du.gud).”

Zhang Chengyue and Pengpeng jumped up in surprise and said in unison: "This is also recorded in history?!"

At this time, there was a burst of noise in the square. They had only been arguing in Chinese just now, and then they noticed that the square had already exploded.

I saw officials and soldiers in the square, some kneeling and some standing, all looking at Gilgamesh in panic.

For them, the "sacred black bird" only appeared in the legends of their ancestors, but this time everyone really saw it with their own eyes!

"Lugar, Lugar...that's the sacred black bird of Ninurta! Uruk is going to be in trouble!" An official shouted to Gilgamesh with a tragic look.

"Nonsense! What does this have to do with Uruk?!" Gilgamesh stood on the high platform of the palace and looked down, saying loudly with a majestic look.

"Lugar, the patron saint of Kish is angry! We cannot go to war with Kish!" the official continued.

"Yes, Ninurta is angry!"

"We will be punished by God!"

"We cannot go to war with Kish!"

"No war with Kish!"

Officials and soldiers in the square shouted one after another.

"Shut up!" Gilgamesh shouted like a lion, his voice shocking the entire audience and reverberating like a valley.

The people stopped talking, but looked at their king with disappointment and resentment in their eyes.

Note:

1: In the early days, the patron saint of Kish was the war god Zababa, who was two different gods from Ninurta (nin.ur.ta), and they were merged together later. However, Zababa was rarely mentioned separately.

And, there are no specific stories and legends left, but they have a lot in common with Ninurta, and they are both described as the "god of war" and "the eldest son of Enlil". In this article, Zababa and Ninurta are regarded as
