Mourrin also told Amon that … the test of fate, the judgment of the end of days … it was not just once. For the gods, they would experience it every time they entered and exited the immortal eternity. The intensity of the test was only related to what the gods did when they entered the divine kingdom or the human world this time. Sometimes the fall of gods was not because they were killed by someone, but because of their own actions, which was different from mortals with limited lives.
This was what Artemis did not have time to tell Amon. Mourrin imprinted the information into Amon's soul, then pulled his sleeve and looked up at him and said, "You have become a god who transcends eternal life, but you have not joined any divine clan. The agreement between the gods may have nothing to do with you, but if you don't pay attention, you may become the enemy of all the divine clans."
For various reasons, the gods did not directly intervene in the struggles of the human world after transcending eternal life, and they could direct the oracles to assist their believers in everything. And the oracles more or less understood the path to transcendence and eternal life, so they were not willing to directly appear and participate in the struggles of the human world except for the mission that they had to complete. Needless to say, the oracles were also different from ordinary mortals, although they were still mortals.
Especially after passing the test of endlessness and mastering the ninth level of the power of origin, those oracles could be called gods in the human world. Many ordinary believers could not even tell the difference between such gods and the real gods who transcended eternal life. Such ninth level oracles usually avoided conflicts that might lead to their death, and solved problems through various agreements like the gods.
And as a real god, it was already a kind of agreement not to directly intervene in the struggles of the human world. Of course, this agreement was not absolute binding, but just the way the gods got along. After going through hardships and the greatest test of the human world, they finally obtained eternal life, and naturally they were unwilling to solve problems in the way mortals destroyed each other.
Agreements were sometimes broken, such as the war of the gods broke out within the various divine clans, and there were also conflicts between the divine clans. The result was clear to everyone, that was the fall of many gods, but no one could guarantee that the one who fell would not be themselves. The fact that the gods did not intervene in the struggles of the mortal world did not mean that there would be no conflicts between them and mortals. It was just that most of the time, they were unwilling and did not need to intervene personally.
Amon hadn't joined any God System yet, so in theory, he didn't have to abide by this agreement. But in reality, breaking this agreement would arouse the suspicions of the other Gods, and it wouldn't do anyone any good. However, today's situation was an exception. Amun had been directly summoned to the battlefield, and Faust and Samel had shot out that arrow. That was a mortal's challenge. If Amun wanted to kill them, the gods would not have any objections, and it had nothing to do with the agreement.
But from another perspective, Samel and Faust were only fighting. Regardless of whether they were humans or gods, they were all enemies. That arrow had to be shot. After listening to this, Amon suddenly remembered something. He grabbed one of Mourrin's hands and said: "Yoon Nam-na, back then at the Khenmet defensive line, in order to save me from Enkidu, you also violated this agreement by taking a sword to the battlefield."
Yoon Nam-na lowered her head and pouted slightly: "I like to hear you call me Yoon Nam-na. I did enter the battlefield in a moment of desperation, and I tried my best not to reveal my identity. I wore the armor of your personal guard, and I didn't launch any attacks. I only blocked Enkidu's sword, but Enkidu recognized me."
Amon: "It was also in that battle that Horus appeared on the battlefield involuntarily, just like me today, so Marduc had an excuse." … But you weren't involuntarily at that time, thank you! "
Yoon Nam-na still lowered her head: "You didn't understand this until today, and I have been looking forward to you becoming a true god who transcends eternal life. Seth was waiting for you at the mouth of the Nile River, so I thought of a way to summon you here. "But I almost fell into Enril's trap. I knew that you couldn't bow to Enril, and I wanted to bring you to join Marduc's camp in the Anunnaki divine clan.
You have entered the eternal realm of immortality, and you should understand that the guidance of the divine clan is not only before you become a god. But now that Marduc has been losing ground, and you have the protection of a creator in the Olympian divine clan, I know what choice you will make, and I can fully understand … "
It was clearly a simple message that could be communicated directly through the soul, but Inanna just had to say it word by word. She lowered her head and pouted her lips like a girl who was about to give up her love. After Amon became a god, he felt that Yoon Nam-na seemed to have changed a little, because he himself had become a god, and the feeling between the two had changed subtly.
They could already enjoy eternal life together, but Amon obviously would not enter the same divine realm as Yoon Nam-na. Looking at the appearance of this goddess, she was as delicate as the shepherdess on the steppe back then, and there was no need for pretense in the communication between the two gods, but listening to the tone of the goddess's voice, it was obvious that there was some bitterness, and there was also a kind of regret and grievance.
Amon was originally burning with anger and swinging his battle axe to chase after another god, but at this moment his anger inexplicably turned into a soft feeling, and he put his arm around Yoon Nam-na's shoulder and patted her gently. "Thank you for spending so much effort to get me out of trouble. After becoming a god, I will still not join the Anunnaki divine clan, regardless of whether Marduc lost to Enril or not, regardless of whether Artemis appeared or not.
I didn't have time to answer Schrödinger's question, but I can tell you the answer, the position of that cat in my heart has never changed, and I will always be grateful to Schrödinger himself or the goddess Artemis, but I will not join the Olympus divine clan. Before I understood the power of the origin, I had refused the greatest temptation on earth, and after becoming a god, I will not be swayed by another temptation. "
The image of the two of them hooking up had appeared countless times on earth, but at this moment in the clouds, this was the first time that Amon had taken the initiative to put his arm around Yoon Nam-na's shoulders. When Yoon Nam-na heard these words, she looked up in surprise and asked: "You won't join the Olympus divine clan? Schrödinger will be disappointed, and your situation is also very dangerous. Even if you join Marduc's camp now, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to protect yourself, and you have also offended the main god of the Ennead, Seth. "
In Yoon Nam-na's view, Amon's choice was tantamount to cutting himself off from the gods, and her tone was no longer sour, but a kind of concern and worry.
Amon nudged her forehead with the tip of his nose and smiled: "Schrödinger will not be disappointed, she knows me very well, so she is only providing a possibility of shelter, but I can't rely on the shelter of the Olympus divine clan forever. Sometimes the gods would rather risk falling to make the necessary choice, such as I must kill Seth with my own hands! "
Yoon Nam-na pouted and looked at Amon and said: "It seems that I don't know you as well as that cat, and because of Maria, I also know that you will not let Seth go. Maybe I made you miss the best chance to kill him, I didn't expect … "
But Amon interrupted her and said with a smile: "Goddess of youth and love, we can also have the achievements of the Creator."
Yoon Nam-na said with some grievance: "We? The so-called curse that the gods ridiculed me with was an obstacle to me becoming a Creator, and I thought that when you became a god, this curse would be broken. But now you are not enjoying that eternal life, but will instead be in a more dangerous situation. You have made such a choice, and I am also in a very awkward situation. "
Amon held her soft body to his chest. "If I join the Olympus divine clan, I will be in a more awkward situation."
What did that mean? Amon's shrine was in the city of Taleng, and it was the divine realm of the Anunnaki divine clan, and Amon stood on the altar with Mourin in his arms. But if he joined the Olympus divine clan, such a shrine would be tantamount to provoking a dispute between the two divine clans. He might as well not join any divine clan and continue to stand there with Mourin in his arms, showing his attitude that although he would not join the Anunnaki divine clan, he would share the divine realm with Mourin.
Yoon Nam-na finally smiled happily and rubbed her cheek against Amon's shoulder. "So you are so thoughtful!" … But I am worried about another thing. Do you know the oath that the gods make when they join a certain divine clan? "
There may be fights between the gods of the same divine clan, but they have a common oath: when a god outside the divine clan challenges a god of the same divine clan, they must not help the challenger attack the god of the same divine clan. That is to say, if Amon challenged Enril, Yoon Nam-na could not fight with Amon, and at most, she could only help the defeated Amon escape, such as the situation today.
If Yoon Nam-na wanted to challenge Enril with Amon, it would be the best choice to let Amon join the Anunnaki, but Amon now had a powerful helper like Artemis, and as long as he joined the Olympian divine clan, he could get good protection. But Amon did not intend to join the Olympian divine clan either.
If a god wanted to get rid of the oath of joining a divine clan, he would have to achieve the achievements of the God of Creation and set up another divine clan. But this was almost impossible for the vast majority of gods. Amon leaned gently in Yoon Nam-na's ear and said, "My wish after becoming a god is very simple, to kill Seth, and hope that I will be lucky enough to find the reborn soul of Maria, help you break the so-called curse, and finally build a divine realm of my wish."
When Amon crossed the Syah Desert to pass the test of endless life and death, he had made a vow: "If one day, when I will pass the test of fate, my wish is not to join or build such a divine clan or become such a god. I want to build a home of faith, which can guide all who yearn for it, and not be guided by the gods. The so-called gods are no longer gods, but gods in people's faith. People can choose a heaven-like home in their lives, or endure the hell-like torment in their hearts. This is my wish to become a god, and the path under my feet will eventually lead there. "
The message was imprinted in Yoon Nam-na's soul, and the goddess opened her mouth in surprise, looked up in Amon's arms and said: "My God, is this simple? You actually have such a vow! "
Amon replied: "Since the gods have eternal life, don't waste this eternity. I don't know if I can fulfill my wish, but I will go on like this."
Yoon Nam-na reached out and gently pinched his waist: "No matter how grand the vow is, you can only do what is right in front of you. You took so long to come back, can you go to my Rose Garden first? "
Amon: "I will first deal with the Garden of Eden and Shalom, and then I will go to the Rose Garden. Right now there are two guests I must personally receive."
Yoon Nam-na suddenly smiled, and this smile was like a spring flower: "I understand, in fact, my curse does not exist at all. You go first, I will wait in the Rose Garden."
Amon first returned to the Garden of Eden, and led the disciples to bury John and Themis there. He also made another vow: if he could see their new souls again in the human world, no matter where and how much time had passed, he was willing to do everything he could to guide them.
After the war, there were still many things to deal with. Apart from Moses who stayed in the Garden of Eden, the disciples all returned to Shalom. In the midst of the busy work, Seagull, who was recovering from his injuries, was the most leisurely and comfortable. Master Circens insisted on personally healing Seagull, and every day, she used various magic to repeatedly test which kind of blessing had the best effect.
Amon returned to Shalom, but he did not show up. Some things did not belong to the gods, and if he appeared in public, it would instead cause the people to gather around and worship him, which would affect the normal order of the city. In the district rebuilt by the Ducians, there were two buildings built by Amun himself. One was the small building where Maria used to live, and the other was the courtyard where Amon grew up. The structure was exactly the same as before. In the backyard next to the craftsman's workshop, there was an ordinary wooden table and three rough stools. Around this table sat the most powerful figures in the continent, and on the table was the best wine in the world. These three people were Amon, Goliath, and Gilgamesh. Amon did not appear here as a god. Without looking at the other two, it was as if he had entered another time and space. He had grown up, but he was still a miner in Duc.
Amon had made his name on the battlefield. Back then, he had led the army to fight against the Hittite Army and the powerful Uruk Legion, and the other two armies were led by Goliath and Gilgamesh. The "enemies" who had once fought against various countries were now sitting together drinking wine. Goliath was still Goliath, but Gilgamesh was no longer the governor of Uruk. As for Amon, he had become a god. Amon first gave a toast to the two guests to express his gratitude, as if he was treating them to his own home. If it weren't for the help of Golier and Gilgamesh, the Legion of Cold would not have been able to achieve such a great victory, and before the two of them rushed to the battlefield, they did not know that Amon would appear as a god. In other words, they did not know that the Shalom Legion would win, but they still came.
Amon was not surprised that Goliath would come, but Gilgamesh's appearance was unexpected. Amon wanted to ask after the toast, but Gilgamesh had already answered Amon's doubts with a silent wave of his hand.
Gilgamesh, who was no longer ostentatious, looked a little thinner than before. He was still wearing the coarse linen clothes of an archer. As a supreme mage, he did not carry a single instrument on him, and of course, he did not have a staff. He had cast message magic out of thin air, showing both a scene and a voice. It was a miserable scene of corpses strewn all over the ground, smoke rising from the ruins of villages and towns, mixed with the screams and cries of women and children. Many skinned corpses were hung on wooden stakes, dried under the scorching sun. From afar, it looked like hell on earth, even more terrible than the Underworld that Amon had been to.
This was the scene of the Assyrian Emperor, Sinnach, leading his army to pillage and massacre the Kingdom of Bablon. Gilgamesh's voice came from the light, "I was wandering in despair when I heard the news of the Kingdom's defeat. I rushed there and saw it with my own eyes. Then, I heard that the Uruk Legion was defeated by the Hittite Kingdom. In the city where I lived since I was a child, thousands of my people became prisoners of war in Meso. "
Gilgamesh made a request as soon as he opened his mouth, not only to Amon, but also to Goliath. He hoped to save these prisoners and not let them become slaves of the Hittites. Currently, the Kingdom of Bablon and Uruk were unable to save these people. Other than a few nobles, they had also given up on the idea of redeeming so many slaves.
Goliath glanced at Amon, who nodded. Goliath said, "I will do my best to help them reach Taleng. Taleng will give them land and freedom. As for whether to return to Uruk or not, let them choose for themselves."
Amon sighed. "The Uruk legion actually suffered such a crushing defeat. Who was the commander?"
Gilgamesh shook his head, "I can't say that they were incompetent. The Kingdom of Bablon was defeated on the eastern front and urgently called for reinforcements. During the retreat, they were chased by the Hittite Army. The Uruk Legion covered the rear of the army as they crossed the river, so they suffered the greatest losses. There's no need to mention the commander, he's my distant nephew. As for the chief priest … hmph! "
At this point, he snorted coldly and raised his head to look at Amon, "You have become a god. Although we used to be enemies, I have always admired you. You have also taught many geniuses. But this one doesn't seem like his teacher at all! "
Amon frowned, "Is he my student?"
Gilgamesh nodded, "His name is Cain, and he is now a supreme mage. Back then, he even practiced body arts under my guidance. But I thoroughly investigated your whereabouts in Uruk City, and many of his performances were beyond my expectations. Later, I realized that he was a student under your guidance! "
When Abel died on the battlefield, Cain followed the Uruk Legion back to Uruk. Amon only taught the brothers the first six levels of the power of two sides. After Gilgamesh left Uruk, Cain, without Amon's guidance, made a breakthrough on his own and became a seventh-level supreme mage in the eyes of the world.
When the Uruk Legion set off again, Cain's identity was the chief priest. Prince Benut led the army to the capital, and the Uruk Legion suffered heavy losses. Cain led the remnants of the legion back to the capital.
