Chapter 0009: The Era of Seeking Behemoths
In a short period, a large number of various giant beasts in the primordial forests were slaughtered, their horns, hearts, and various parts were used for experimentation, leading to the near extinction of the once-thriving Ara beasts.
If I could see the wise giant once more before I die, to see again that great and mysterious being of wisdom, then... Gilgamesh's aged face was streaked with tears.
Select the candidates for the next generation of kings
The throne is mine
In Xu Zhi's view, there is nothing to regret in such a life when it comes to death; for someone suffering from a terminal illness, he is already very content.
Even the previously formidable Zerg Queen could not achieve this; otherwise, she would not have sought to break through the barren land to reach the legendary realm of immortality before the end of her life, in search of the possibility of prolonging her existence
The three city-states of the kings stood in parallel, with the three kings jointly governing the world. The Sumerian city-states entered an unprecedented era of prosperity. Gilgamesh suddenly felt the complete arrival of death and began to attempt a final struggle.
Civilization began with Gilgamesh, but it cannot be severed from his grasp
Allow the establishment of cities
Two heirs with the blood of power have emerged, and they are about to alternate the kingship, succeeding the soon-to-die Gilgamesh and guiding the next generation of Sumerian civilization
Xu Zhi smiled
Eighty-eight years later, the aging Gilgamesh, on the verge of death, leads all the ministers of the royal palace to worship at the temple, making a second plea to see the wise giant beast again
Xu Zhi has not purchased a car
On this day, he led the ministers and all the millions of subjects to pay homage to the great beast of wisdom, hoping that the magnificent and colossal being of wisdom could sense their call
In the end, countless individuals perished from the inability to withstand the Blood of Power, even through trials. Only the Forest Warrior Enchidu and the Prairie Barbarian Ishtal survived, both having obtained the Blood of Power, and established two city-states.
He summoned craftsmen to construct a temple, establishing a palace of the wise giant beast that was more exquisite than his own palace in Uruk, dedicated to the worship of the wise giant beast
At this moment, Gilgamesh, the wisest of kings, issued a direct order
It is regrettable
Let us go to the city to purchase a washing machine
When Gilgamesh last experienced the decline of his life, he appointed his most trusted son, Aga of Kish, to become the leader of the next generation. However, after living through his second life, he personally killed his most beloved son.
It is no longer available
More than thirty years have passed, and Gilgamesh feels that his life is rapidly fading away. This majestic old man sits on the throne, completely gray-haired and covered in wrinkles. He sits calmly on the throne, motionless, with his eyes closed.
However, he overlooked one point
... ...
The heir to the throne shall receive the blood of power! Possessing strength comparable to mine, there is no need to fear me! Furthermore, they will gain the qualification to lead their subordinates and establish a second royal city abroad
My life is about to come to an end, yet I clearly do not wish to die
All lives that grow old will ultimately perish; no one is immortal.
Chen Xi smiled, scratched his head, and said, "Actually, I have many questions about professional knowledge that I would like to ask you. After all, you are a senior at our school, and I am studying the same major as you!"
If resistance cannot age, then silently accept death, just like his choice of paper, enjoying the final moments of one's life.
In the immense stone temple, a towering giant statue stands, radiating a magnificent brilliance. The colossal figure, with a single hand, supports the youthful hero king Gilgamesh, casting a slight gaze over the vast expanse of land, emanating an astonishing divine white glow.
Man is an animal that, once satisfied, will no longer be content
Xu Zhi Ge, then please take my electric scooter
He promised to engage in this "farming" activity, but now he is suffering from a terminal illness. It is uncertain when his stomach cancer will reach its advanced stage, and he could pass away suddenly at any moment, without even the fortune of dying a natural death.
Countless merchants, slaves, commoners, nobles, and craftsmen flocked before the palace
Xu Zhi stood at the entrance of the courtyard, gently touching his thick, jet-black hair
Sumerian Dynasty 175 years
Everyone fears becoming the next Kish's Agga, if Gilgamesh were to come back to life, he would undoubtedly kill the next generation of kings
Grant the blood of power
And this king of the fields? He truly leads a happy and glorious life, attracting the attention of the masses, and future generations will compose grand epic songs in his honor, to the point of making me envious.
He acted very casually this time, believing that Gilgamesh would remain calm as he did the first time
At the same time, he summoned extraordinary individuals from all over the world to begin concocting potions and researching dark magic
In history, during the renowned era of tyrannical city-states, dark sorcerers ran rampant
This news has sent shockwaves throughout the nation
Sumerian Dynasty 113 years
He lived a legendary life that even many would envy, achieving great accomplishments and paving the way for the origins of civilization. Throughout his life in the tribe, he married over 300 beautiful wives. What more could one regret?
For the first time in the face of death, Gilgamesh, who had almost resigned himself to his fate, was overjoyed after living a second life. After experiencing the fear and rebirth brought about by death, he began to profoundly fear death itself
In the 102nd year of the Sumerian dynasty, Gilgamesh was one hundred and forty-two years old
If it weren't for Xu Zhi's inability to transform into a little person, to put it bluntly, he would have rushed in, indulging in a carefree and blissful existence, living like a celestial being, directly soaring to the heavens
This legendary king, having established his nation for over one hundred years and possessing a lifespan three times that of ordinary citizens, suddenly began to show signs of aging. He was utterly astonished and enraged, issuing a decree to mobilize the entire nation in search of the wise giant beast.
After all, he only had a few hundred thousand in savings from his previous job, and after buying a good car, he was almost completely drained of his savings. At that time, he chose not to buy, but chemotherapy depleted most of his savings. Now, there is only a bicycle in the yard, so he naturally has to ride Chen Xi's electric bike to go out
The dynasty's rebellion is surging, causing tremors.
Boom
After sitting in silence for three days, he finally opened his aged eyes, choosing to submit to the passage of time, and issued the order:
The immortal hero King Gilgamesh must also face the end of life
Discoverers of the traces of the wise giant beast will be generously rewarded
I will be the King of Sumer II
At that moment, Xu Zhi was having a meal, chatting with Chen Xi, enjoying the delicious and nutritious farmhouse dishes, feeling very happy, and had no time to pay attention to him... Moreover, she did not want to pay attention to him either
A court sorcerer used the horn of a dorado, the juice of white beard grass, and various organs of giant beasts to create a longevity potion, successfully extending Gilgamesh's life. However, after multiple uses, the potion ceased to be effective, and he gradually succumbed to an unstoppable decline.
The great king is about to die
Then, Xu Zhi and the girl rode an electric scooter to the city to have fun and go shopping
Purchasing electrical appliances will enhance his rural living conditions, as it is a modern city, and living without electrical devices at home is quite uncomfortable
Yet, for a moment, no one dared to speak up
No species can achieve immortality
Sumerian Dynasty 145 years
Great wise giant, Gilgamesh, I wish to see you again
Death is something that no living being can avoid, not even the greatest of heroes
This heroic monarch wishes to live a third life
"That sounds good." Xu Zhi smiled.
