Chapter 284 The wind is up!
In Babylon, the sun quietly rose and dispelled the night.
Gilgamesh, who had experienced ups and downs one day yesterday, fell asleep in a deep sleep at some point without any sign of waking up.
Simona originally wanted to ask Gilgamesh for breakfast, but when she saw this, she put the breakfast and prepared clothes on the table next to her.
Simona did not wake up Gilgamesh, and after leaving a message on a mudstone slab, she set out to the Ishtar Temple.
At present, Babylon is in a very special period.
Simona knew that although Babylon now seemed very peaceful and comfortable on the surface, it was a storm in secret.
Because, war is coming.
The reason why Hammurabi, King of Babylon, has not yet made public the matters about war because of the particularity of Babylon at this time.
At the beginning, Hammurabi did not discover the true face of Marduke, and believed that Marduke was the patron saint of Babylon.
Therefore, after Hammurabi took office, he not only raised Marduke's position in the hearts of the Babylonian people to the position of the head of the gods, but also built many buildings related to Marduke in the city of Babylon.
In addition, Hammurabi ordered people to build the "Hamurabi Code", which emphasized the divine right of the monarch, which highlighted the unquestionable rule of the royal power and the divine right above the royal power.
Therefore, in the hearts of the Babylonian people today, Marduke's status is supreme, even higher than Hammurabi.
This is the cause planted by Hammurabi himself, and he must bear the fruit of his fruit.
This is also the reason why Hammurabi remained silent after discovering the true face of Marduke.
On the one hand, the truth discovered by Hammurabi cannot be transformed into tangible evidence and displayed in front of the people.
Therefore, without tangible evidence, even if Marduke is publicly expressed, many people will not believe it.
On the other hand, Marduke is still behind the scenes and has not yet revealed his intentions.
In this case, once Hammurabi makes a public statement, it is easy to alarm the enemy and arouse Marduke's alertness.
Of course, Hammurabi didn't have any movement.
In secret, Hammurabi has been accumulating strength, waiting for the most appropriate opportunity to disclose everything, giving Marduke a knowing blow.
Therefore, as the priest of the Ishtar Temple, Simona must always control the overall situation and guide the people of believers to Hammurabi and to mankind at critical moments.
Gilgamesh slept for more than ten hours this time and did not wake up until the evening.
After waking up, Gilgamesh immediately saw the food on the table next to him and the mudstone slabs left by Simona.
Simona's message was very simple, it was to explain what she would do and let Gilgamesh live in her home.
Gilgamesh also knew that the only thing he could rely on in Babylon was Simmona, so there was no doubt about this matter.
Then, Gilgamesh, who was extremely hungry, ate the food left by Simona voraciously.
After that, after a brief wash, Gilgamesh put on the clothes prepared by Simona.
The clothes prepared by Simona were Babylonian women's robe, sandals and a black tulle mask.
In addition, Simona also prepared a scimitar for Gilgamesh to defend himself.
After washing and sorting out everything, Gilgamesh left the house and planned to take a good tour of Babylon City and ask for more useful information as much as possible.
Gilgamesh's mentality is completely different from yesterday.
Because of a foothold and a support, Gilgamesh can better integrate into Babylon and into this era.
At the same time, Gilgamesh, who has traveled from the future, also knows that in the future, there are examples of awakened people awakening the parallel world and achieving extraordinary results.
Therefore, after knowing that the other person is the hero king Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh wanted to find a way to awaken himself and achieve extraordinary things.
Gilgamesh knew that war would come sooner or later.
Moreover, this is a battle between man and gods.
In such a war, if there is not enough power, not to mention whether it can protect others, even self-protection is a problem.
This result is definitely not what Gilgamesh wants.
What Gilgamesh wants is to return to the future safely and return to his father's side.
For this reason, extraordinary power is necessary.
As for how to awaken one's memory, Gilgamesh thought of the strange dream he had again.
Until now, Gilgamesh still clearly remembers that there was a voice in his dream, speaking the ancient Sumerian language, allowing himself to find the stone slab of destiny...
Gilgamesh conjecture that the stone slab of destiny is likely to be the key to awakening one's memory.
However, Gilgamesh now doesn't know what the Destiny Slate is, and he doesn't even know what the Destiny Slate looks like. If you want to find it, you are undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.
Gilgamesh also asked Simona last night.
However, Simona didn't know about the Destiny Slate.
According to Simona, although she was once the Grand Priest who served the hero King Gilgamesh, she was not the closest person to the hero King Gilgamesh. It was impossible for her to know everything about the hero King Gilgamesh.
At the same time, Simona said that she would try to communicate with the Venus goddess Ishtar to see if she could get relevant information from him.
Gilgamesh knew that although Simona was the priest of Ishtar, she was not able to communicate with Ishtar just by wanting to communicate.
In most cases, Ishtar took the initiative to communicate with Simmona and guided Simmona.
Therefore, Gilgamesh cannot put all his hopes on Ishtar.
Gilgamesh wants to try hard to see if he can rely on himself, find the stone slab of destiny, and find a way to return to the future.
As for directions, Gilgamesh wanted to start from Babylonian myths and legends to see if he could find clues.
After leaving the house, Gilgamesh began to wander around the North City.
During this period, Gilgamesh saw the crowded temple of Ishtar and also saw the tall stone statues standing in front of the Temple of Ishtar.
The stone statue carved the image of the goddess Ishtar standing on the body of the Babylonian lion.
Gilgamesh observed that the Babylonian lion was 3 or 4 meters tall, and the standing goddess Ishtar made the height of the entire stone statue exceed 5 meters.
From this we can also see Babylon's achievements in sculpture and architecture.
On the other side, within the palace of the Babylonian city, Hammurabi was standing at the highest point of the palace, overlooking the Euphrates River that runs across the Babylonian city, and whispered, "The wind is blowing..."
