They really traveled to the time of Gilgamesh!

But there is nothing to be happy about...

"I just want to go home!" Pengpeng shouted without tears, "And why did I travel through time and become a lion? I am always so unlucky! Even time-traveling is so unlucky!"

Zhang Chengyue comforted him and said: "Don't be sad. It seems that Gilgamesh has an iconic lion next to him, right? If this is really his era, maybe you can really become the pet of the King of Heroes, at least you will not have to worry about eating and drinking.

!”

"Become... the lion next to Gilgamesh?" Pengpeng thought blankly, "My name is 'Wang Peng', but I don't want to become the king's friend in the form of a lion!"

Zhang Chengyue looked at him and scratched his head helplessly.

"No!" Pengpeng suddenly stared at Zhang Chengyue's tall figure, the muscular body of a man in the forest, his long black hair, and his handsome face. He suddenly understood something and shouted: "What if my time-travel identity is Gilga?"

Lion of Mesh, then your identity is... the 'Son of the Forest' who was born in the jungle, Gilgamesh's good friend 'Enkidu'?"

"I am 'Enkidu'?" Zhang Cheng became more and more stunned.

In the oldest heroic epic "Gilgamesh", the demigod Gilgamesh is the monarch of Uruk, but he is tyrannical and excessive, forcing the residents of the city to build walls and temples for him, making the people miserable.

This aroused the anger of the nobles and residents. They complained to the gods, and the gods created a special demigod 'Enkidu' as a tool to discipline Gilgamesh.

When he first appeared, Enkidu was a jungle savage. He did not know human language or civilization, and lived in the forest like a wild beast, accompanying animals. Later, after arriving in the city of Uruk, Enkidu heard that Gil

Due to Gamesh's atrocities, he fought a battle with him, and the outcome was indifferent. The two cherished each other and became good friends.

Under the influence of Enkidu, Gilgamesh gradually restrained his original tyranny. Together, they performed many feats of eliminating harm for the people and became heroes deeply loved by the people.

"Look at your appearance, dress, and strength! Your setting must be 'Enkidu'!" The lion hugged his head and cried, "Oh God! Why is it so unfair to me? As Gilgamesh, who admires me the most

man, why am I not his good friend Enkidu, but a lion?!"

After a while of fussing, "Gulu...", the lion touched his belly and said, "I'm hungry..."

"Why are you looking at me eagerly? I'm hungry too!" Zhang Chengyue said angrily, "Aren't you the king of the forest? Prey is not a problem for you, right?"

"Prey? You have to bake it for me! I never eat raw food, it will cause diarrhea, and it's disgusting!" Pengpeng said.

Zhang Chengyue's veins popped out: "You have quite a lot of demands!"

However, the body after traveling through time was really useful. Zhang Chengyue caught fish easily, and the lion also caught a few pheasants, feeling a little like standing at the top of the food chain.

After filling his stomach, the lion flicked its tail and jumped onto a high rock to bask in the sun. It squatted proudly and silently looked at the sky and the earth. It remained motionless for a long time, with only the slight rise and fall of its nose as it breathed.

In Zhang Chengyue's view, it is actually an unusually tall and beautiful lion, as majestic as a king. The sunlight outlines its strong and beautiful figure, and its golden mane is sandwiched with soft snow-white thorns, floating gently in the breeze.

move.

After seeing enough of the scenery, the lion slowly turned its head, and the breeze raised its "bangs". For a moment, it was as handsome as Simba in "The Lion King", and his face even showed the unique nobility of being the king of the jungle. and melancholy.

However, the next second, it began to sing an old song affectionately: "I am a... wolf from the north~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Zhang Chengyue had a black line on his face.

The moment of fullness was enough to make him forget his worries. Zhang Chengyue also climbed up the rock and looked far into the distance. Under the slightly warm sunlight in the afternoon, he could see the stretching forest at a glance.

"This place... is so beautiful!" Zhang Chengyue said, "I have never been to such a pure place without human pollution. It seems that my body and mind have calmed down!"

Pengpeng felt the same way, but he still couldn't help but said teasingly: "Have you found the feeling of being a child of the forest? Is there primitive passion rushing through your blood?"

"Pengpeng, don't you think all your feelings are completely different from before? I feel healthy, strong, and full of strength. My eyesight can see things very far away; I can feel the flow of the breeze. , the singing of nature, the spring water flowing through the cracks in the rocks, the chicks opening their hazy eyes, the bright green buds breaking out of the ground, no... the whole planet is playing the original pulse... "

"It's getting more and more exciting! Enkidu," the lion said sourly.

Pengpeng suddenly remembered something and said excitedly: "By the way, I forgot to call the system! How can we travel without a system? System, come out!"

With a buzzing sound, a simple search interface without any logo appeared in Pengpeng and Zhang Chengyue's minds at the same time.

"That's true!" Pengpeng asked happily: "What year is it now?"

"Didi." The system marked a red cross, and the words were displayed in their minds: "Insufficient points balance! Answering the question depends on the complexity of the information required, and the cost of points ranges from 100 to 10,000. The executor is proactive in the task Behavior can be exchanged for a certain amount of point rewards.”

Let me go, you still get points for asking questions! They noticed at the bottom of the screen in their mind, Zhang Chengyue: 0, Pengpeng: 0. Is this their points?

Zhang Chengyue said to the system: "You want us to perform a task? Then you should provide more information to help? Do you want us to score points to obtain information?"

The system does not answer.

"What about the props?" Pengpeng asked.

[System]: "Sorry, we can only provide information, no physical help."

Then the scene switched to a gray transparent tree with abstract graphics.

"This is the World Tree, which represents the understanding of the 'origin structure of human civilization'. You need to collect as much information as possible and fill in the gaps in your knowledge. You will be rewarded."

"Wait a minute," Pengpeng asked, "doesn't modern science understand enough about human civilization?"

[System]: "The modern understanding of ancient history is incomplete and biased, and the entire cognitive system must be rebuilt."

They didn't understand it at all, but there was nothing they could do.

Zhang Chengyue sighed and said: "Let me sum it up, the current situation is probably like this: we have to complete the task before we can travel back. To complete the task, we must rely on the system to provide information help, and actively looking for Gilgamesh will get points in exchange for necessary information. .”

Pengpeng said: "Also, you must be precise when asking questions and only ask core questions. This will consume less points."

Zhang Chengyue said: "Then let's go to Uruk to find Gilgamesh! Since I am 'Enkidu', he will greet us like good friends!"

"Don't! If you go like this, you will die!" Pengpeng said.

"Send yourself to death? Oh yes, they were 'enemies' in the beginning. They only became friends after a fight. I had forgotten..." Zhang Chengyue scratched his head.

Pengpeng said with a bit of schadenfreude: "Since the plot of time travel has set you as 'Enkidu', then sooner or later you and Gilgamesh will have a fight, so you'd better be mentally prepared!"

"Want to fight 'Golden Shining'?" Zhang Chengyue recalled Gilgamesh, who wore a golden armor in "Fate Zero" and killed gods when gods blocked him, Buddha when he blocked Buddhas, and defeated the world's heroes. He couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine. "

Hey, tell me, Gilgamesh in history shouldn't be as powerful as in the two-dimensional world, right?"

Pengpeng thought for a while and said, "I don't know. The information says that he is the oldest hero king, 'one-third is a human and two-thirds is a god'?"

Zhang Chengyue also remembered it and said, "Yes, he is indeed a demigod!"

Pengpeng said: "It's just myths and legends. Are there really demigods in the world?"

Zhang Chengyue nodded and said with a slightly solemn expression: "Do you know the meaning of 'hero' in English? We translate it as 'hero', but the original meaning of this word has been misinterpreted by us. We call those who sacrifice for the people 'heroes'

'; In fact, the original meaning of 'hero' is 'demigods and warriors born between gods and humans', which comes from the demigods who appeared in Homer's epic poems in ancient Greece. They were born with supernatural powers and were good at fighting. In wars and adventures

He achieved great achievements that are beyond the reach of ordinary people. The "Epic of Gilgamesh" also records similar deeds, but it is one or two thousand years earlier than the Greek heroic stories."

Pengpeng asked in surprise: "Gilgamesh is really the son of a god and a human?"

Just listen to a "ding" sound, and the system prompts: "If the discussion is positive, 100 bonus points will be awarded."
