Shepherding Humanity

Chapter 14 Gilgamesh, brandishing a sword to the sky

"A small civilized world, similar to the intelligent creatures the size of ants."

Xu Zhi lowered his head and watched as he restricted his size, and gradually multiplied the evolved intelligent species. This tearful white-haired old man was a little sighed.

At that time, the juvenile worm ape that held in his palm was standing at the top of the giant tree, holding the sword of Damocles and shouting at the hot young boy, he was already late, and he reached the end of the years.

His ambitious young man's posture, bloody and arrogant, clearly seemed to be yesterday...and indeed the first two days.

Their seemingly endless years are only a short moment in my eyes.

"Gilgamesh, how have you been all these years?" Xu Zhi whispered softly, the sound penetrated the vast clouds and fell into the prosperous city of Uluk under the whole piece, above the central palace.

Gilgamesh shuddered with his holy sword.

"Me... I'm doing okay."

His throat was thirsty and hoarse, and he looked at the sky-high giant.

Even if it wasn’t the first time I saw it, I was still impressed by the magnificent sight. The vast giant of giant ranks penetrated into the sky straight. The trunk seemed to prop up the whole world. A trace of white and holy light could not see the majesty, and the eyes between the clouds were extremely deep.

Giant, overlooking the whole city of Uruk.

Great shore, great, solemn, sacred, no word in the world can describe that kind of shocking beauty!

"Oh my god!"

"It really exists!"

The city's tens of millions of people, businessmen in leather suits, ragged slaves, women in noble dresses, civilians, craftsmen, put down their jobs, walked out of shops and houses, and stood on the streets, looking up The vast giant who pierced the sky.

"In the legend, the wisdom species that gave us civilization, the giant monster of wisdom..."

"A huge giant with a height of tens of thousands."

"What a great and vast life is comparable to the sun, moon and stars in the sky!"

They are immersed in the blankness of their minds in shock, admiration, longing, fear, shock, countless complex emotions intertwined, and eventually become unparalleled admiration.

The surrounding palace ministers were also shocked, reminding Gilgamesh of the first time they met. He was also in such a horrified mood. After a moment of silence, Gilgamesh looked up and showed his eager look. Beast, the heritage of civilization you gave me more than 100 years ago, I have done it."

Xu Zhi's voice was powerful, penetrating the clouds, and spilled down to the King of Uruk, "Your great achievements will be recorded in the Sumerian epic "Genesis" you wrote, and you will be the greatest in the history of Sumerian civilization. The first generation of kings, the heroic king Gilgamesh, later generations, will write an anthem of history for you."

"No, the glory of thousands of years after death, living in word of mouth epic, that is not what I want." Gilgamesh excited.

"Then what do you want?"

"I want to be like you, eternal life." Gilgamesh looked up, looking at the giant towering into the clouds, very eager, "I am willing to give up everything, willing to give everything, please give me the three treasures of eternal life! "

Xu Zhi was silent.

Gilgamesh, this monarch now has almost everything in the world, glory, woman, power, wealth, the world belongs to him, but he is still not satisfied.

Longevity, Xu Zhi also wanted!!

Xu Zhi is now terminally ill and is dying at any time, envious of Gilgamesh's magnificent life, like an epic life chapter.

"Gilgamesh, you are too greedy. I don't have the three treasures of longevity." Xu Zhi looked at the king who was aging calmly. "The birth and death of the species is a natural law, and I can't change it. "

At the end of life,

Xu Zhi seemed to be sighing and empathizing with himself.

In front of him, like the previous Queen of the Nest, the identity and status were wiped out at this moment, and the scales of countless civilizations were crossed. He and Gilgamesh are just two pitiful people who silently wait for the decline and face the fear of death. Species.

Regardless of the emperor and the ants, after all, they can't escape the loess bones.

"no no..."

Gilgamesh's hoarse voice squeezed out of his throat, looking at the huge face around the sky, "No, you deceive me, you can do it, you can do it!!"

His eyes were fierce, and he looked at Xu Zhiru's towering, rocky and sturdy young body. After a long time of more than a hundred years, he has grown old, but he has never left any trace of this great giant.

To him, time seemed like yesterday.

The giant beast of wisdom, as the most mysterious species of wisdom, seems to him to be eternal.

"What a powerful force this is, what a coveted long life..."

Gilgamesh's lips were trembling, sullen, and he suddenly raised his head and could not help shouting: "Then did you come in response to my call to witness my death? A humble and poor life, trembling Old dead."

"I came here to see you off, and did not have the ability to extend your life. I also came to carry out the second handover and warning of civilization." Xu Zhi sighed and said: "Your civilization is too brutal, extinct. Creatures, destruction of forests, slaughter of giant beasts, the entire land is trampled by you. The real civilization is not brutal, nor barbaric. I ask you to stop your killing!"

"Stop, kill?"

Gilgamesh's burly body was gray-haired but still strong, suddenly trembling and trembling, and his eyes seemed to be burning with a flame, growing stronger and burning,

The old man with white hair suddenly stepped forward,

"No, the killing cannot stop, nor can my footsteps stop! You know, the sword of Damocles that you gave me over the years seems to hang high above my head , It gave me both powerful strength and unparalleled fear...and today, I will pull out the overhanging sword above my head!"

"Akkad."

"The minister is here." The historian responsible for compiling "Genesis" stepped forward.

"Write down the history of our civilization at this time, I said, you write." Gilgamesh said.

Akkad silently lifted the quill and rolled out a roll of gray hide paper: "Your Majesty's mouth."

"The history of humanity's struggle against nature is the history of courage and hymns....I ordered the original intention of compiling Genesis to preserve history for future generations and to make future generations understand the ancestors' courage to fight nature,"

"Now, let history record my courage at this moment."

Gilgamesh gasped for a rough breath, and the old man with the sword of Damocles smirked, exclaiming:

"Genesis, the Sumerian dynasty, in 175, after beheading Fenba, the strongest legendary power beast in history, the hero King Gilgamesh, who has sealed the sword for more than a hundred years, once again shot, using the power of the country to seduce the wisdom above. The behemoth appears and wants to wield a sword and beheaded!"
