The afterglow of the setting sun.
The figures of the warriors who returned from the battlefield were reflected on the city walls.
Their figures, which were more than ten meters tall, looked especially burly.
Irin was silent. He looked at the reflection on the wall, deep in thought.
"Hahaha! Refreshing!"
Red Hair's anger was vented. He stepped on the sticky beast blood and laughed loudly. His expression was deranged.
He was finally satisfied.
Governor Bohr smoked on the city walls and gradually disappeared into the smoke.
Gilgamesh had left.
But the intimidation he left behind for everyone was still there.
Irin and the others were not on good terms in the real world.
But for the time being, they would not fight.
Or rather, there was no reason for them to fight.
Originally, Governor Bohr thought that Circia was hiding a great treasure on her.
But when he chased her all the way to Wuke Town, she and Red Hair somehow ended up in this world, this battlefield, this era.
She had a vague feeling that she seemed to have, possibly, perhaps been tricked.
Gu Tianqing walked into the city with a happy and relaxed expression.
Irin jumped down the city walls.
He ignored the pretentious Gu Tianqing and walked in front of Miriam.
Miriam's armor was stained with beast blood that had not dried yet. Her entire body reeked of blood and a foul stench.
"How do you feel?"
Irin asked in a low voice.
"You mean?"
"The strength of the monsters."
Miriam put away the Invisible Sword and nodded. She understood what Irin meant. "My body is very light, and unbelievably agile. On the battlefield, I feel like I can handle a butcher's knife with ease. "
"Pardon me for asking …" Irin moved closer. "What is your Class Skill?"
"Oh." Miriam could not understand why Irin's actions and expressions were so sneaky. But when she saw that Irin did not look down on her smelly and dirty body, Miriam's ahoge trembled slightly, but her face remained calm. She counted with her fingers, one by one, the class skills on her interface. "Intuition, Magic Affinity, Mount, Mirror Image, Titan's Strength, Sword Heart, Dynamic Vision, Absolute Balance, Fairy's Blessing, Heart of Justice …"
Halfway through her speech, Miriam noticed that Irin was glaring at her from the side. Her reaction was a little strange, and she had no choice but to stop reading. "Is there a problem?" she asked curiously.
Irin shook his head. "There's no problem. Please don't say anymore. It's enough."
Miriam frowned. "But there's still …"
She hadn't finished reading it yet.
"Oh?" Irin pretended to remember something and kindly reminded him, "Are you hungry?"
It was as if a switch had been switched on in Miriam's mind. She tossed the matter of her class to the back of the ahoge and nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at rice. "Yes, yes, yes! I'm hungry! "
"Let's go and find something delicious!"
"Oh!"
…
Nighttime.
In Uruk City.
A huge bonfire was lit in the Goddess Square.
The citizens of Uruk were gathered in front of the bonfire to celebrate the victory of the day.
They served up local delicacies and special ale to welcome the heroic spirits.
Among them, Miriam, Red Hair, Michelle, and Gu Tianqing, who were the main contributors of the day, were treated like heroes.
"Burp …"
Miriam secretly burped when the others weren't paying attention. She patted her slightly bulging belly and ate to her satisfaction.
Although she felt that the cooking skills here were very crude, far inferior to even one-tenth of Irin's. But it was good in quantity! Irin had never cooked so much food before. Miriam was full from this meal, and she couldn't eat anymore.
"Thank you for your hospitality. I'm full."
Miriam expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the citizens of Uruk.
She gradually fell in love with this simple prehistoric city.
At this moment.
An elegant woman in a dark green dress with a thin veil on her face walked over gracefully.
"Dear heroic spirits, I am Siduri, the priest who assists the Sage King. Please allow me to arrange a place for you to rest."
The top of the palace was where Gilgamesh lived.
It seemed that since ancient times, the nobler one was, the more they liked to live in higher places.
And their place was arranged in the middle of the temple.
There were two rooms next to each other, one for men and one for women.
It seemed that it was impossible for each of them to have a single room.
Other than the rooms, there was a pool downstairs that was specially used for bathing. There was a clean hot spring inside all year round, and it was very comfortable.
It was already midnight when they finished bathing in batches.
Looking down, the city of Uruk was completely silent, and the lights of all the houses were dim and dark. Only sporadic patrolling soldiers with fixed routes with their torches were faintly discernible in the city.
The dutiful Uruk guards patrolled the city and the city walls with torches. They didn't dare to relax.
In the night sky, a ridiculously large full moon hung high in the sky.
Beside the moon, the crack that tore the sky into two had not disappeared.
In the crack, there were scattered red lights from time to time, as if there were some existences secretly opening their eyes and peeping at the world here.
Siduri kindly explained the rules of survival in Uruk to the heroic spirits from a different time and space.
First, they were not allowed to enter the Sage King's room without permission, or they would die.
Second, they were not allowed to damage the Goddess' statue in any way, or they would die.
Third, they were not allowed to show the slightest disrespect to the Sage King on various occasions, or they would die.
The heroic spirits were not restricted in any other way.
The heroic spirits quietly listened to Siduri's explanation.
Then, they looked at each other.
In other words, as long as they didn't do anything to the Goddess' statue or the golden retriever, they were not restricted in Uruk?
No one was stupid enough to ask what would happen if they were disrespectful to the Sage King in front of him.
This was because the red-haired man had used his own personal experience to give everyone a bloody explanation.
After Siduri left.
The seven heroic spirits fell silent in the room.
This was a men's room with a king-sized bed.
Logically speaking, the three female heroic spirits, Miriam, Michelle, and Bohr, should have gone back to their own rooms and done whatever they wanted.
However, Miriam remained seated on the floor, showing no signs of wanting to leave.
Governor Bohr leaned against the half-opened door and looked outside. He was in a daze. He held a pipe in his hand and puffed out a cloud of smoke. He was silent.
Michelle was by the wall, far away from the others. She quietly took out a cloth to wipe her weapon and carefully wiped her scythe.
"Cough, cough."
Irin deliberately coughed twice to break the awkwardness.
In an instant.
Everyone's eyes fell on Irin.
He suddenly became the center of attention.
Although he did not like this feeling.
He would rather hide in the shadows and sneak out to attack.
But at the moment, there seemed to be no better way.
"Let me say something."
Irin calmly took out two small pistols and played back and forth in his hands. "Among you, if there is anyone who owes money, has a grudge, or has a grudge, quickly settle it now. I don't think anyone wants to be stabbed in the back in the coming war. "
As soon as Irin finished speaking, the red-haired man glared at Irin. His nostrils flared, and he had a ferocious expression as if he wanted to wash Irin clean and eat him. It was as if he was saying, "I have a grudge against you!"
"Heh." Governor Bohr laughed disdainfully beside the door.
Yan Fenggong raised his hand. "I think Mr. Irin is right. We are in the same situation now, so we should cooperate for the time being."
Irin glanced at Yan Fenggong and continued, "I think some of you still don't understand why we are in this situation. Simply put, it is the Clock Tower. I think all of you have learned of one thing from various sources. It is about a treasure. So, due to various reasons, we finally gathered in Wuke Town. "
"But I am sorry to tell you that there is no such treasure. We have all been deceived."
Yan Fenggong's expression changed.
Irin smiled. While the others were silent, he looked at Yan Fenggong and said, "I can roughly guess the reason why the others came to Wuke Town. But you, forgive me for being blunt. Where do you belong? "
Michelle suddenly clenched the scythe in her hand and closed her eyes.
Yan Fenggong clenched his fist, as if he was thinking about something.
"I see." Irin smiled. Before Yan Fenggong and Michelle could answer, he had already confirmed his speculation. "Imitation Scarlet Sea? I already felt that something was wrong before. Bathamelo wanted me to believe in the predicament of the Clock Tower and made everything logically flawless. So, he created an atmosphere of hostility between the Clock Tower and the Imitation Scarlet Sea. "
"No, to be precise, it shouldn't be. Because that happened before I arrived at the Clock Tower. Actually, the real situation is that the Clock Tower and the Imitation Scarlet Sea have always been hostile. But just as the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies in the world, and no eternal friends. Because of a certain purpose, the Clock Tower and the Imitation Scarlet Sea suddenly held hands and became good friends. This is what humans are like. It's quite ironic. "
"Wait a minute …" The red-haired man subconsciously widened his eyes to the point that even his crow's feet disappeared. He slapped the bed and stood up. "You mean to say that those damned magicians tricked me?"
Irin expressed that he could not understand Red Hair's anger. He looked at Red Hair with a strange gaze. "You're mental … No, you're magic?"
"No, I'm muscle." Red Hair shook his head. He bent his arms and showed off his well-developed biceps.
However, he didn't understand why Yi Lin suddenly interjected this sentence in the middle of his narration.
"That's it." Irin waved his hand. "People rely on their brains to make a living. You have muscles in your brain. Is it shameful to be fooled by magicians? It's not shameful, and it's not strange. "
Red Hair: "…"
"Phew —"
At this time, hearing this, Governor Bohr walked towards Irin. Her facial features were expressionless, and she could not squeeze out a smile. She said straightforwardly, "Understood. Cooperation."
"Governor?" Red Hair looked at Governor Bohr in surprise.
"Cooperation."
Governor Bohr squeezed these two words out of his mouth in a tone that left no room for doubt.
Red Hair lowered his head and gritted his teeth. He did not speak anymore.
That was the reason, but he still felt unhappy.
"You understand." Irin grinned and gave Governor Bohr a thumbs up.
Governor Bohr sat down in front of Irin. Her tight-fitting military uniform shook with her movements. Her expression was neither happy nor sad. She asked again, "We have to leave this place. Do you have a way?"
Irin smiled and shook his head. "Not at the moment."
Governor Bohr heard this and his expression changed. His cold gaze shot towards Irin. The smoke around them became thicker, and Governor Bohr's figure was shrouded in the smoke.
"Haha, I'm talking about at the moment. When you came in, you should have noticed that Tower interfered in this matter to a certain extent. In other words, this is the Inner World, and we are in a trial.
"As long as you treat this as a trial, then your train of thought is very clear. There is only one way to leave the Inner World that everyone knows. "
"Complete the main mission!" Red Hair listened to Irin's explanation of the situation, and his muscle-head gradually became enlightened.
"That's right." Irin narrowed his eyes. "We just need to complete the main mission. And the reason why the main mission has not been released yet, according to my understanding, is either because Tower's interference is not complete, or we have not reached the conditions to trigger the main mission … "
At this moment, Irin paused. He frowned slightly and looked outside the empty window.
But his pause did not last for long. He quickly continued and looked away from the window. He continued, "So, we can only wait. This is a war. The worst-case scenario is nothing more than winning this war. "
Irin shifted his hatred to Clock Tower and Imitation Scarlet Sea.
Everyone was united against a common enemy. They finally put aside their conflicts in the real world for the time being, and wholeheartedly fought their way through this trial.
But everyone knew that the only reason the seven of them could cooperate was because they had the same goal. Once there was an unstable factor, this fragile alliance would collapse in an instant.
Throughout the entire conversation.
Yan Feng and Gong Zheng kept their heads down. Their faces were pale, and they had a heavy heart. No one knew what they were thinking about.
After everyone left, only Red Hair, Irin, Yan Feng, Gong Zheng, and Gu Tianqing were left in the men's room.
The four men stayed in the same room. They were not familiar with each other, and they each sat in a corner. The atmosphere was so awkward that one could not help but dig out three rooms and a living room on the ground.
This atmosphere lasted until midnight.
Yan Feng and Gong Zheng did not make a sound. With their backs to everyone, they laid against the wall and fell asleep.
But Irin actually knew that he was not asleep. He was just pretending to be asleep.
Red Hair, on the other hand, accepted the reality of cooperation in a very short time. His arms were bare, and he only wore a pair of boxer shorts. He lay on the stone bed, snoring one after another.
Late at night.
Irin suddenly opened his eyes and quietly left the place.
The city of Uruk was silent.
Irin turned into a shadow and silently came to the highest point of the palace.
Above his head was the dark night, and the space crack that tore the sky into two parts.
Irin sneaked out of the room in the middle of the night. He did not come to see the night sky.
Nor did he come to take a piss against the wind.
Nor did he come to have a tryst.
On the empty rooftop of the temple, there was a stone table.
Beside the stone table, there was a soft animal skin blanket.
There was a person sitting on the blanket.
It was King Gilgamesh!
He was sitting on the blanket with his back facing Irin. He spread his legs and sat in a casual and lazy posture. At this moment, King Gilgamesh was alone, looking up at the space crack in the sky, motionless.
At this moment.
A handsome young man with long green hair and pure white clothes floated out from behind King Gilgamesh.
His facial features were as delicate as a young girl's, and he had a pair of pure emerald-like pupils. For a moment, Irin almost mistook him for a woman. Fortunately, the young man's chest was ridiculously flat, so Irin didn't make a mistake.
"Hello, Caster."
The green-haired young man floated in front of Irin, with an apologetic look on his delicate face, he slowly said with an androgynous gentle voice: "I am the king's God-given weapon, Celestial Lock. Sorry, the king is not in a good mood today, so- "
"Shut up, Enkidu." Gilgamesh tilted his head, still with his back facing Irin, but he glanced sideways at Irin and the green-haired young man who were talking, and rudely interrupted their conversation: "Do you think the current situation will shake the king's mind? You are too naive, don't forget who the king is. "
"Please forgive Celestial Lock's rudeness, Your Majesty."
The green-haired youth called himself "Celestial Lock", but Gilgamesh called him "Enkidu". After apologizing to Gilgamesh with a smile, he smiled faintly at Yi Lin and disappeared.
"It's a spirit."
Nie Hongxiu appeared, frowned and said coldly.
"Hey, it's actually a spirit!"
Bai Xiaoyi also didn't want to be left out.
"Should I say it's really a spirit now?"
Little Mei tilted her head and asked with an innocent expression.
Beside Gilgamesh, Enkidu's translucent head popped out and whispered: "King, they have a good relationship."
"Back down."
Gilgamesh expressionlessly pushed Enkidu back with one hand and regained his composure. He shook the amber ale in a dazzling golden cup and proudly said: "A mixed-blood with a weak divinity. Heh, the king allows you to sit with the king. "
Irin was surprised when he heard that, but he still silently sat down on the opposite side of the stone table.
