Dragon of the Root

Chapter 29: Isthar

Soon, several years passed, and the reputation of the viceroy genius began to spread in the Sumerian territory.

As long as Wu Ming had nothing to do, he would follow this young king in the form of a shadow of trust.

Watching this wise young king grow by the day, Wu Ming could hardly imagine that Gilgamesh would become a tyrant when he grew up.

On the sacrificial stage, in front of the statue of the Sage Dragon.

After the daily worship, the people of Uruk left one after another, and in the end, only the viceroy remained.

"Well, Dragon Sage, people are already gone, come out and talk to me immediately." The young king smiled, like a well-behaved child, but Wu Ming didn't think so.

The stone statue began to emit a faint golden light.

The shadow of an illusory dragon appeared on the stone statue.

"You still have the same bad taste as always, little Gil." A dull ancient voice rang out.

"Hahaha~ What can I do, who made me a 'good boy'~" An innocent laugh sounded in Wu Ming ears.

Wu Ming shook his head.

"Let's go, today is a Great Adventure."

The young king eyes lit up.

"Is it the legendary Mount Ebih that even the gods fear?"

"Of course, the place I brought you to must be the best!"

Wu Ming big dragon head tilted and said excitedly.

"Then get ready!"

After speaking, Wu Ming started chanting an incantation.

In the slightly nervous and excited eyes of young Gilgamesh, a beautiful golden magic circle enveloped him, and light flooded Gilgamesh eyes.

When Gilgamesh lowered his arm that was blocking the light, what caught his attention was a tall mountain.

"This is Mount Ebih." The young king uttered the joyful voice that children should have.

After all, this child is only a child.

Wu Ming thought in his heart.

"Sage Dragon, let's hurry up." With that, Gilgamesh moved his short legs and embarked on a great adventure climbing Mount Ebih.

Wu Ming floated in the air like a ghost, accompanying the young king up the mountain little by little.

(Mount Ebih, you must add some difficulty to this king, otherwise he will have to cry in front of me again.)

After all, it was Ebih mountain, Wu Ming could feel the immense magic power contained in this mountain. After a brief exchange of magic power, he took control of some things on the mountain and started blocking Gilgamesh.

In the process of climbing the mountain, young Gilgamesh encountered many strange things. The rock that fell from the top of the mountain, the soaring goshawk, the entangled vines, the beasts rushing in, all made it difficult for Gilgamesh to ascend the mountain. After some difficulty, Gilgamesh finally reached the top of the mountain

"Wow!"

The young king shouted to the sky, expressing his inner joy.

"Hahaha~ Sage Dragon, come and have a look, this scene is really spectacular~"

"That is why Mount Ebih has such a beautiful view, Gil."

A small shadow appeared, floating beside Gilgamesh.

"Okay, I took the risk, and I turned it back," said Wu Ming.

"Well~ I'm not done yet~ But let's go back, good things are for last." The young king began his journey down the mountain.

Wu Ming also disappeared. The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on n0velbjn((.))com

If the journey up the mountain is difficult, then the journey down the mountain is easy.

Along the way, Gilgamesh plays with cute animals, collects wild fruits, and collects sparkling stones.

However, it didn't take long for Wu Ming to know that a goddess had come here.

(Is he here to specifically look for Gil? No, it doesn't seem so, then what is he here for?)

Wu Ming did not specifically inform Gilgamesh of the goddess arrival, as Gilgamesh was now on the "god" side. Although in the future he will choose the "people" side.

Soon, the goddess met Gilgamesh.

"Ah~ Isn't this Gilgamesh, what are you doing here~"

Facing the goddess who had suddenly appeared, Gilgamesh looked a little confused.

Wu Ming appeared behind Gilgamesh, facing this beautiful goddess, he seemed to be thinking about something.

"Goddess Ishtar, what did you do when you came to Mount Ebih?" Wu Ming dull ancient voice rang out.

"Oh~ Isn't this the Sage Dragon of Uruk? Are you accompanying the viceroy? I thought you were long gone. I don't think Rimat Ninsun can hold you back. Why, do you like being a babysitter~ I still like this young king~" joked the goddess who was called Ishtar by Wu Ming.

Even though Isthar used words with honor, there wasn't much respect in them.

"I don't need you to mind my business. Let your father come and talk about it."

In fact, when Wu Ming became the dragon sage of Uruk, he came into contact with a deity in the Sumerian realm. Maybe because he seems to be the dragon of the legendary Dragon of the Root, the king of the gods. Anu was amazed at Wu Ming, who gave Wu Ming who wasn't very strong back then, an opportunity to take advantage of him.

Disguised as an all-powerful but wounded dragon, the legendary Dragon of the Root requires faith to heal its wounds.

Hence, the scene where Wu Ming reprimanded Ishtar appeared above.

"You're kidding, I'm here today to see this Ebih mountain, so I won't bother you and the viceroy." As she said, she continued walking up the mountain.

(I have long heard that the goddess Ishtar is very brave. I saw her today.)

"Let's go Gil, come back."

However, Gilgamesh did not act.

"What's the matter, Gil." Wu Ming was confused. Gilgamesh should not have been mesmerized by the goddess.

"That goddess, there's something wrong with the look in her eyes," said Gilgamesh quickly.

"What is wrong?"

"Well, it's a gaze that will destroy a treasure."

"What do you mean"

"I think the goal is this Ebih Mountain."

"Then don't mind us, let's go." Even though he said that, Wu Ming didn't think so.

"Sage Dragon, send me back to Uruk, I want to return soon."

"I really can't do anything with you."

A flash of light flashed, and Gilgamesh disappeared in his place.

But Wu Ming turned around and flew towards Ishtar.

"If I remember correctly, there was a passage in Mesopotamian mythology. Goddess Ishtar destroyed Mount Ebih because she couldn't understand it. Every step she took, she increased his strength. One point, until he reached the top and penetrated it. The heart of the mountain with a spear thrust, causing the complete collapse of Mount Ebih."

"It's really troublesome to stop Ishtar destruction of Ebih. Am I not going to do anything when I'm full."

But---

"I really have nothing to do. Ishtar, I am here to stop you."

Turned into a stream of silent sound, rushing forward.
