The wrath of the tyrant!
As Lin Qiye circulated his spiritual power to dispel the aura of the Tyrant's Wrath, the surrounding tortoise shells that were attacking him instantly stopped their assault and floated silently.
Sensing the incredibly familiar aura of a monarch emanating from Lin Qiye, the divine tortoise abandoned its attack on them.
The King of Uruk has returned...
A flash of dark light, and all the tortoise shells in mid-air vanished instantly.
boom!!!
The giant body of the divine tortoise began to shake violently, and an ancient and mysterious treasure trove was revealed on the bluish-gray island, emitting faint glows.
The Nightfall Squad landed in front of the enormous treasure vault, and an ancient stone door slowly opened.
This is the entrance to the legendary treasure vault of the hero-king Gilgamesh.
The sheer number of divine artifacts contained within is enough to drive any divine kingdom mad.
Lin Qiye, wielding the Zhanbai sword and radiating the wrath of a tyrant, walked at the very front of the group.
“Everyone, stay close to me. There are quite a few gods eyeing this treasure trove. We must seize it before they do.”
Gu Tianchen, carrying the God-Slaying Halberd, said with a smile, "Don't worry, our goal is to take everything away, leaving nothing behind."
“King Gigi, from now on, all your divine artifacts will belong to the Gu family.”
Chapter 439 Uruk Royal City
The King's Treasury, its interior space.
A majestic, gray-black royal city stands amidst a sea of yellow sand.
Amidst the rolling yellow sand, a ragged little girl, who looked only a teenager, secretly slipped out of the ruins of the ancient city of Uruk.
Her eyes sparkled like jewels, radiating a lively light.
The little girl was carrying something on her back, which was wrapped tightly in a black cloth.
"Pshaw, I don't want to learn any forging techniques and spend all my time as a blacksmith in a sweltering blacksmith shop. My journey, Tali's journey, is to the stars and the sea!"
With her worn-out little backpack on her back, Tali glanced longingly at the ancient city of Uruk behind her, then, as if she had made up her mind, walked away into the distance.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the scorching sun left Xiao Tali parched and drenched in sweat.
The little girl took out her water bottle from her backpack, ready to enjoy a delicious sip, only to find that her water bottle was empty when she opened the lid.
Tali looked troubled. They hadn't walked far, and the water supply had already run out?
Or... should we go back?
Tali looked back in the direction she had come from, and began to have second thoughts.
"No, no! As a descendant of our king, how can I give up so easily? I must find the lost artifact for our king!"
Tali stood up, brushed the sand off her clothes, and walked forward with a determined look on her face.
Beneath the yellow sand, a stealthy figure is rapidly approaching.
"What is that?!"
Tali, very alert, removed the black cloth from her back and assumed a defensive stance.
What was hidden beneath the yellow sand suddenly vanished without a trace.
Tali circled around but found nothing unusual beneath the yellow sand, and gradually relaxed her guard.
Just as the little girl was about to turn and leave, a black iron chain, as fast as lightning, burst forth from the sand, gleaming eerily in the sunlight, and lashed out at Tali!
Tali quickly dodged, narrowly avoiding the attack of the black iron chain.
After dodging the attack with a side roll, he quickly regained his balance and tore off the black cloth, revealing what was underneath.
It was an ancient-looking, silver-gray bow that radiated a dazzling divine light.
Tali drew her bow and nocked an arrow, and the surrounding yellow sand began to gather, forming a sand arrow that shot swiftly toward the black iron chain.
boom!
The arrow of yellow sand exploded, unleashing terrifying power that shook out the figure hidden beneath the yellow sand, stirring up billowing sand.
In the yellow sand, a huge black scorpion shook off the sand, its two large black pincers were extremely sharp, its tail, which was like black iron, danced in the wind, and its venomous stinger exuded a dangerous aura.
Tali was startled and quickly drew her bow, preparing to shoot the large black scorpion dead.
Unexpectedly, the latter was even faster, its black scorpion tail lashing out like lightning and knocking the divine bow from Tali's hand.
Unable to withstand the immense force, Tali's petite body was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the desert.
The large black scorpion crawled over excitedly, its tail hooking towards Tali's head!
Unable to move, Tali closed her eyes and quietly awaited death.
A flash of golden light instantly severed the black scorpion tail, which was as hard as black iron.
The enormous black scorpion, in pain, staggered backward, its face wary as it looked in the direction from which the golden halberd had come.
Gu Tianchen raised an eyebrow, looked around, and slowly said, "After searching for so long, I finally found a living person. I need to keep this little girl to ask for directions, so you can't let me eat her."
Seeing its prey interrupted, the black scorpion instantly flew into a rage, brandishing its two black pincers that resembled black iron as it charged rapidly toward Gu Tianchen.
The enormous black pincers, carrying terrifying power, clamped down on Gu Tianchen's head, but he managed to restrain them firmly with his outstretched hand.
Black Scorpion clearly did not expect that this seemingly weak human could unleash such formidable power. His black pincers, which could usually break rocks and split gold, were easily manipulated by him!
Swish!
The other pincers lashed out at the small human in front of it with lightning speed!
Gu Tianchen kicked out, blocking the seemingly unstoppable pincers.
No matter how hard the black scorpion exerted itself, the small human in front of it remained as still as a rock.
Gu Tianchen laughed and said, "Hehe, you dare to lay a hand on me with such little strength? Looks like my dinner is sorted for tonight."
Click!
Before the black scorpion could react, Gu Tianchen exerted a little force and instantly snapped off the giant black pincers!
Immediately following was a dizzying sensation as Gu Tianchen grabbed the broken scorpion tail with one hand and slammed the black scorpion around like the Hulk had slammed Loki, leaving it dazed and confused.
"The halberd is coming!"
Gu Tianchen tossed the black scorpion, which he had been swinging like a windmill, high into the air. A golden streak of light flashed across the sky and struck the black scorpion precisely in mid-air.
After easily dealing with the black scorpion, Gu Tianchen dragged the scorpion's corpse to Tali.
"Hehehe, little girl."
Tali was so frightened that she backed away, looking around for her dropped divine bow.
"Little girl, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person," Gu Tianchen said earnestly.
Tali stared at Gu Tianchen as if he were a monster. Could someone who could swing a black scorpion several meters tall around like a toy be normal?!
"You...you stay away...if you come any closer, I'm going to shoot you!"
Tali touched her fallen bow and, as if grasping at a lifeline, quickly aimed it at Gu Tianchen.
call out!
Before Gu Tianchen could speak, an arrow of yellow sand shot out, heading straight for Gu Tianchen's head!
Gu Tianchen quickly used his Flowing Shadow Lightning technique to dodge the arrow.
"No, are you serious?"
Gu Tianchen turned to look at Tali, only to find the little girl had fainted on the ground; the arrow must have slipped from her grasp...
Gu Tianchen stepped forward to check and found a dark purple wound on the little girl's arm, which must have been caused by a scorpion's tail during the fight.
"Little girl, it's not your time to die. Luckily you met me, this all-powerful brute. Let me treat you, and I guarantee you'll be cured."
Several tender green willow twigs extended from Gu Tianchen's wrist and wrapped around Tali's injured arm, clearing all the scorpion venom from her body.
Tali, her face deathly pale, groggily woke up to a dazzling starry sky.
Tali sat up and noticed another figure by the campfire.
He was gnawing on a thick scorpion leg with one hand while curiously playing with his divine bow with the other.
"Give me back my things!"
Tali looked at Gu Tianchen and said angrily.
Gu Tianchen tossed the silver bow to Tali, then raised a scorpion leg and asked with a smile, "Want one?"
Tali said with a look of disgust, "Who wants to eat that disgusting stuff?"
After saying that, Tali stood up, picked up her divine bow, and prepared to leave.
"Little sister, are you going to the royal city of Uruk? Can you take me with you?" Gu Tianchen asked.
Tali raised her divine bow, aimed at Gu Tianchen, and coldly questioned, "Who exactly are you? How did you get in?!"
Chapter 440 Seven Gods
"My name is Gu Tianchen, a Night Watchman of Great Xia, and also a half-friend of your King Urukgiji," Gu Tianchen said earnestly.
"How dare you disrespect my king! I'll shoot you into a pincushion!"
Tali drew her bow and released an arrow, which caused a multitude of wind arrows to gather around her and shoot towards Gu Tianchen from all directions.
With both wind and sand, this bow can mobilize different energies to condense into arrows; it's no ordinary bow.
Just as all the wind arrows were about to shoot towards him, about to hit Gu Tianchen and turn him into a hedgehog, he saw them all hurt.
Snapped!
With a snap of his fingers, Gu Tianchen caused all the wind arrows to freeze instantly, gradually disintegrate, and vanish into the air as countless gentle breezes.
"I'm sorry, but the Ancestral Witch of Wind, Tianwu, is one of my godfathers. Wind arrows can't hurt me."
Tali looked at Gu Tianchen in shock, "What kind of monster are you?!"
