It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 365 It’s time to draw cards again
It is indeed a familiar smell.

After all, Xia Zhi’s understanding of the goddess... well, how should I put it, it’s very deep.

After all, when implementing a grand plan like "Shin Megami Tensei", it is absolutely necessary to have insight into the essential aspects of the Goddess's divine core, divinity, etc.

Whether it is successful or not, or whether it is a delusion or not, let’s not discuss these for now.

But if even the most basic and core preparation work is not properly completed, then everything will be in vain and there is nothing to talk about.

Of course, Xia Zhi still sincerely hopes that this plan can proceed smoothly.

Whether it is "Space Ishtar" or "Cosmic Ereshkigal", he is happy to see it. Who doesn't want the SSR in his hand to super evolve?

Because of this, Xia Zhi is very familiar with Miss Ishtar's iconic "symbols".

——The Seven-Headed Hammer Sita, it is said that the goddess has been holding it in her hand since she was born, a hammer that imitates seven snakes...

——The Sky Boat Maanna, the ship of gods galloping across the Mesopotamian world, the interstellar transfer gate connecting the Earth and Venus...

——The Bull of Heaven, Gugalana, the strongest divine beast, was created based on the concept of the violence of heaven, the embodiment of "the ravages of the gods"...

And so on.

The one that people are most concerned about is indeed the last one.

Because it is said that in the Warcraft battle line of the seventh singularity, Chaldea and others once wanted to rely on the power of this strongest beast to formulate tactics to stop the god Tiamat.

It was a blocking attack rather than a decisive battle, just to slightly slow down the enemy's marching speed.

However, this subtle attempt alone is enough to outline the awe-inspiring power of the Bull of Heaven.

It seemed that only the ferocious power of this divine beast could be mobilized, and even the goddess transformed into a servant could vaguely touch the vast divine power of the original body in an instant.

Just from this point of view, it is incredible.

However, it was at that critical moment, when this Heavenly Bull was most needed to turn the tide...

The useless goddess just lost it.

Perhaps it was because Ishtar possessed a human being with whom she had a connection and similar wavelength, and therefore inherited someone’s attributes—

For example, being greedy for money, being arrogant, and failing at critical moments.

Hence this result.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems completely understandable.

It is unbelievable that someone who is always calm, reliable and trustworthy would make a mistake at a critical moment;

And someone who is already rash and unreliable, and who fails at the critical moment...well, isn't this exactly her character?

Anyway, Xia Zhi felt that this matter was unremarkable and even a +3 in sociology couldn't do it.

Even Miss Ishtar herself was not convinced by this.

She refused to admit that it was her fault. After all, how could such a big cow be lost?
One hoof of that giant beast is big enough to rival a small town!
No matter how careless or forgetful you are, there is always a limit!!

So, Miss Ishtar’s response to this is to insist that the Bull of Heaven has returned to heaven, otherwise it should not be missing.

Perhaps it is because the connection between gods and human history has been completely cut off, and it has also completed its mission!
Yes, that's the only way it could be.

After all, she couldn't accept the possibility that someone stole the cow. This would be a violation of her dignity as a goddess, so she naturally tended to believe that the divine beast returned to heaven voluntarily.

The truth of this fact is actually nothing.

After all, no matter how powerful the Bull of Heaven is, his effect on Xia Zhi is now very limited.

He didn't have the time to investigate what had happened.

——Is it true that someone stole the cow?

——Or in a world where the connection between gods and human history is completely severed, the strongest divine beast naturally disappears and returns to heaven?
I just didn’t expect…

This little episode that had long been put aside in my mind suddenly became a connecting clue today.

"The Bull of Heaven is unique?"

"Among the many parallel worlds, there is only one?"

Xia Zhi thought quickly and immediately found a fact that he might have overlooked. He guessed that this should be the case.

The giant beast in Babylonian mythology - Gugalana, the bull of heaven.

In mythology, he is actually a Sumerian god, known as the "Big Bull", and is also one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, Taurus.

Since it is a god, it naturally possesses divinity and sufficient supernatural characteristics.

Just like Ishtar and Ereshkigal.

Both of them are goddesses, but they only appear in the form of divine servants. At best, they are just a part of their spirits that have descended into the material world.

As for the true body of the god...

Always in a higher dimension.

"The Bull of Heaven, although clad in the glory of divinity, its essence is not so much a living being with life and independent will, but rather a weaponized concept endowed with divinity..."

He thought about it and soon felt that he had grasped the key.

"Since it is the weapon of the gods, there is no need to split it. If it is summoned in another world line, it will disappear without a trace in the current world line..."

Very likely, this is the truth.

So, it wasn't Miss Ishtar's fault at the beginning?
But at the most critical moment, he was summoned by another force, crossed the boundary of the parallel world, and went to another world line?

Then the problem is coming-

What power could do this? Bypass Ishtar and control Gugalana?
Even though Miss Ishtar only appeared as a pseudo-Servant at the time and could not have possessed the power and strength of a true god, her control over Gugalana was unquestionable.

And being able to bypass her authority unknowingly...

——Is it the great god Anu?

——Or is it Ishtar herself?
Taking all factors into consideration, it seems that the latter is more likely. Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows immediately. If this is the case, things will become interesting.

This undoubtedly implies that in another parallel world line, the divinity of the goddess may also be quietly active.

Moreover, it is very likely that it exists in a state of carrying partial power.

"Tsk tsk, is there anything more suitable than this..."

He marveled, pondered for a moment, and then, with the help of his divine consciousness, sent the imperceptible gray poison to the other side of the channel in that parallel world.

Then he stopped controlling the gem sword and closed the extremely narrow gap.

The gap opened in the microscopic realm through the restrictive second magic function is indeed an extremely narrow passage.

Humans cannot traverse such a passage.

But as a Qigong practitioner who has just started to learn the art and has made some progress, he has many means to make use of it.

——Perception can spread over there, and divine thoughts can leave a spiritual imprint there...

——Gray Gu sends out a little bit and issues a command, and this nanomachine can replicate and multiply itself...

——Even if things get worse, there are still his omnipotent cells. As long as one cell travels through, it means that his "body" exists there...

It's that simple.

There is almost no need to use any special skills, and this can be accomplished by relying on one's own characteristics or existing equipment.

What he chose was to use nanomachines, which would replicate themselves there, and after multiplying to a certain size, they would begin to build transmitter devices.

It is convenient for him to receive signals and anchor the world line over there.

After all, I haven't yet mastered the ability to completely interfere with parallel worlds. If I don't leave any marks, wanting to reposition myself later will be like trying to find the disappeared combination in a kaleidoscope.

This will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble.

Xia Zhi also changed his mind. After realizing the truth, he was planning to hack into the realm recording tape over there and download the data from his seat.

In other words, he was preparing to directly obtain the registration information of the spirit base and summon that "Ishtar".

But when the time came, he decided to take a detour.

Because he realized a problem, that is, if the "Ishtar" over there is not using a human like Rin with a similar wavelength as a host...

Then, the goddess's personality might not be so cute.

Perhaps it will be closer to the prototype, cruel and violent.

Therefore, in this case, we need to think carefully again.

"We're back……"

As she entered the house, Ms. Toosaka called out.

"..."

"..."

Quietly.

no respond.

She and Sakura looked at each other, both confused.

"That's strange, could he have gone out?" Miss Toosaka muttered, closing the door to the entrance. The sun was setting on the street outside, and the afterglow seemed very warm.

"Could it be that...he has already left?"

The purple-haired girl put on her indoor shoes while speculating uncertainly.

"How can it be--"

Lin's expression changed slightly, but he immediately shook his head: "When I left this morning, I said I would start summoning Heroic Spirits when I got back."

Although she said so, the girl still subconsciously quickened her pace and walked towards the mansion.

The mansion was quiet.

It really seems like no one does.

It was not until the two sisters walked around that they found a room upstairs with the door open and some unusual light faintly visible.

The two of them came to the door and looked curiously in the corridor.

The scene inside the door came into view.

The size of the space was obviously not right. Although the vast ground still had the floor style of a Western-style house, it seemed to have become as wide as a square in a park.

In the four corners of the room, several magic furnaces stood in an orderly manner...

Various techniques were processed and added to the structure of the entire room...

There was no telling how many layers of the all-encompassing barrier there were, and there seemed to be invisible familiars wandering in the air...

"This……"

Rin couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This magic workshop immediately made her feel excited, and she even wanted to change the layout of the basement immediately and work in this workshop from now on.

"came back?"

The man stood in front of a mysterious magic circle and waved at the two sisters.

"Then get ready, we are about to start summoning."
