"...Is it that bad?" Wu Feng's low voice didn't escape the girl's ears. After speaking, her face immediately flushed red, as if she was embarrassed about something. She then lowered her head slightly and continued, "The reason is something I just came up with. I'm really sorry it's so bad."

"But it's true I've been watching you for a long time, ever since the change in the wedge. I've been searching for the reason, and then the creation of the chains brought about further changes. She failed to complete her mission and instead sided with the wedge, which caused quite a stir in the heavens back then."

"My investigation has ultimately led me to you, the Holy Master of Uruk. Your appearance has accelerated the changes in the wedge and you were the one who caused the alteration of the chains. So it's not wrong to say that I've been watching you for a long time."

The girl's words gave Wu Feng a headache. It meant that he had been noticed by the girl in front of him for a long time. He just hoped that no one else knew about this, otherwise things would get really serious.

"These things have nothing to do with blind dates, right?" The girl's words made Wu Feng increasingly suspicious that she had ulterior motives. How could she still come to a blind date after knowing all that? An arranged marriage by parents and matchmakers? That's too strange!

“If it were just these things, I naturally wouldn’t have come in person, but what happened a few months ago forced me to make up my mind.” As she spoke, the girl’s eyes became more intense and focused, staring at Wu Feng with an unusual light.

A few months ago, Wu Feng subconsciously thought that before the battle with Lao Baba, he had planned to capture all the gods in one fell swoop. Although one of them escaped, he had been hiding his identity at the time, so it was impossible for him to be discovered so quickly.

If she really knew that he was the one who did those things, there couldn't have been only one female deity who came, especially under the guise of a blind date. The girl's words ruthlessly shattered Wu Feng's conjecture.

“A month ago, God King An had his son organize a hunt to hunt down the legendary monster Lao Baba. However, they were ambushed during the retreat and almost the entire army was wiped out. Only another son, the Water God of Wisdom Enki, escaped,” the girl said slowly, staring at Wu Feng.

"An was furious and ordered his grandson Marduk, the Earth Mother Goddess Ninghursag, and the Water Goddess Enki, along with hundreds of celestial beings and more than ten great gods, to search for the ambushers. However, they found nothing; even Raubaba had vanished without a trace."

"I never expected that you could defeat Lao Baba and escape from there in such a short time," the girl stepped forward, staring at Wu Feng closely, her eyes even more intense, and said in an almost worshipful tone.

"...What exactly is your purpose..." After hearing what the girl said, Wu Feng felt heavy-hearted. He didn't expect that the thing he had been hiding all this time would be exposed so easily by the other party. If the gods above also knew about this, then it would really be the end.

"My purpose..." The girl put her hands behind her back, a smile returning to her beautiful face, her red lips parting slightly, "is to arrange a blind date with you."

...Holy crap, are you kidding me?! The girl had just managed to lift his spirits, but now she's thrown him into chaos again. Don't tell me she really came here for a blind date...

"Big sister, stop playing around... let's get straight to the point..." Wu Feng said helplessly, covering his face. The girl in front of him had a rather strange personality.

"Are you in such a hurry to get to the point?" the girl said, blushing.

...Wu Feng was truly speechless this time. Holy crap, how the hell does this brain work...?

Before Wu Feng could react, the girl had already grabbed his hand and pressed it against her chest. The soft touch made Wu Feng subconsciously knead it a couple of times, which elicited a soft moan from the girl and made her face blush even more.

It would take Gillespie and Enkidu quite a while to get here from the Moon Tower, naturally not as long as Wu Feng's instantaneous arrival, but after so much time, they were almost at the city gate and could clearly see this scene.

Wu Feng placed one hand on the girl's chest, and the girl also covered it with one hand, her pretty face slightly flushed, looking at him "affectionately".

"...As expected... Teacher must have been controlled by that scum with evil magic. Let your disciple help Teacher." This scene became the final straw that broke Gil's broken nerves. His blood-red eyes were devoid of any light, and he drew a blood-red longsword with a smile. (To be continued...)

P.S.: I got home a little late, lol. I never have any drafts saved up, so it's understandable that I'm sometimes a little late, right?

...

Chapter 238 Continuing with what we just did

Wu Feng was also stunned by the girl's outrageous behavior and couldn't react for a moment. He remained in that position, holding the soft, not-so-full-figured flesh in his hand, his mind wandering.

On the other hand, Jill despises the gods the most. As a queen, she has a strong possessiveness, but she is not unreasonable. She can allow her teacher to have a wife, but she can never allow the gods to exist there.

The thought of a deity becoming my stepmother makes me feel like I'm about to collapse. (This can be interpreted as your favorite mother marrying the person you hate the most—that's roughly how it feels →→)

With a swift movement, he quickly approached Wu Feng and the young goddess from the city gate. Enkidu, standing to the side, did not stop them. Instead, he smiled encouragingly at the scene. No matter the reason, it was absolutely inappropriate for the teacher and the goddess to be together!

When they were not far away, Gilles swung his blood-red longsword without hesitation, slashing out with a streak of crimson light towards the girl. If Wu Feng had been there, he might have been able to take out the Ea sword.

Wu Feng had already noticed the attack launched by Jill behind him. His suspicion of the girl, coupled with his shock, prevented him from making any move, allowing the blood-red sword to slash past him and fly towards the girl.

A smile appeared on the girl's rosy face. Without dodging, she stretched out her other hand and easily controlled the blood-red longsword in her hand. With a flick, the sword landed behind Wu Feng, in front of Gilgamesh's feet, stopping her advance.

The result surprised Wu Feng. Gil was at least a high-ranking ferocious being, much stronger than ordinary gods. That blood-red longsword wasn't an ordinary weapon either; it might have originated from some mythological prototype. Such a combination was easily caught with one hand! Even without using his own superhuman strength, it would have been difficult for him to do so.

Startled, she unconsciously tightened her grip and heard a low moan coming from in front of her again. At the same time, Gil behind her also erupted in anger. The girl's godlike behavior fueled her fury. From her perspective, it looked like the other girl was deliberately seducing the teacher.

A key-shaped Gate of Babylon appeared in his hand. The space connecting to the armory of the Golden City opened, and dozens of ripples immediately appeared behind him. Weapons burst forth from the space, their peculiar shapes and sharp aura instantly filling the space before him.

The profound impression left by "The Death Gun of the Phoenix Butterfly," coupled with Wu Feng's deliberate guidance, finally allowed Jill to master the use of the Gate of Babylon ahead of schedule.

Without further ado, dozens of magical artifacts shot out from the space. They were sharp, heavy, or strangely shaped, but they all shared one characteristic: they attacked the girl with terrifying power.

Seeing the dozens of strange weapons attacking from the side, the girl frowned. Releasing the hand that was holding Wu Feng down, she moved away from where she stood. Even she didn't want to take these attacks head-on. A quick glance was enough to tell that these weapons were no ordinary items, and several of them carried an aura of curse. Even a god would be in danger if hit by them.

Various cracks kept appearing around Wu Feng, but there were no attacks on him.

"How rude! I'm on a blind date with your teacher, and your disciple is interfering!" After dodging, the girl pouted and said to Jill, who was approaching Wu Feng, with dissatisfaction.

“I will never let you deceive your teacher.” Jill walked up to Wu Feng, cautiously staring at the female deity. The other party’s easy response just now made her feel a sense of crisis.

“There’s no deception. I’m telling the truth. So, what’s your answer?” The girl turned her head and continued to stare at Wu Feng, emphasizing the word “truth.”

“…I’m sorry, I still can’t trust you.” Wu Feng shook his head. He still had too many questions about the girl in front of him.

"Hey, I clearly have a good feeling about her," the young goddess tilted her head, looking puzzled.

“The teacher has made his point very clear. Please go back immediately,” Enkidu, who had followed, said in the same way. What had just happened had deepened her understanding of the girl.

"I had considered that this might be the outcome, but I never thought it would actually happen." Gilles and Enkidu's resolute stance, or Wu Feng's indifference, made the girl sigh in disappointment. Then, her expression turned serious again.

"I'll leave now. Before I go, out of consideration for their blind date/partner, I'll give you some advice."

"Show all your trump cards in the next two days. You don't have much time left," the young goddess said earnestly to the three.

"What do you mean by 'not much time left'?" Wu Feng asked patiently, frowning. The previous conversation had made him realize that the girl knew many things they didn't.

"You made the most serious mistake when you hunted Lao Baba by leaving a witness behind. Although she has only told me so far and hasn't told anyone else, An will find out about her sooner or later. It's only a matter of time before you are exposed." There was a hint of disappointment in the girl's eyes.

“Impossible. Apart from Enki, all the gods should have been left behind. I have been hiding my identity until everyone was gone and I was able to recover. How could I have been exposed?” Wu Feng said doubtfully, recalling the events of that day.

"You said it yourself, it should be so, but someone still survived and witnessed everything. That weapon was from the treasure it was guarding, wasn't it?" The girl looked at the weapon in Jill's hand, her crystal-like eyes shining slightly.

The silence of the group spoke volumes. Jill and Enki realized that things were not as simple as they had thought, and that they had already involved years of preparation.

Before the three of them, the girl floated up from the ground, intending to return to the sky. Before leaving, Wu Feng asked one last question.

"Why tell us this?" This was also his biggest question. Without a doubt, they were the enemies of all the gods. The girl who knew some of their situation should understand why he would tell them.

"...Because of some unknown reasons, the heavens have changed. If things continue like this, it would be better to destroy them..." The girl looked confused. When Gilgamesh was born, everything was normal. He established the gods of the present world and closely connected humans and gods.

But ever since a mysterious figure arrived, things have changed in the heavens. They are no longer interested in the connection between humans and gods, but instead want to enslave and even destroy them. They know that humans are the source of their power, so why do they do this?

"Besides that, there's another point. I really came here for a blind date with you, so I have a good feeling about you, which is why I'm telling you all this." After her initial confusion, the girl looked at Wu Feng with a serious and adorable expression.

"If you agree, I can find a way to smooth things over. Then, you'll be nominally on the side of the gods, so there won't be much of a fuss. And... what we were doing earlier can continue..." the girl added earnestly at the end. (To be continued...)

P.S.: I have to work overtime after the New Year, lol. I'm so looking forward to my week off...

...

Chapter 239 Kishar

"Um, never mind," Wu Feng said, feeling a little embarrassed as he recalled the soft touch from before. He unconsciously clenched his fist and declined the girl's offer.

"What a pity, I'll be leaving now. I hope you can escape this calamity," the girl said disappointedly after Wu Feng's repeated refusal. She really wanted to help, but unfortunately, she didn't have a legitimate identity and was powerless to do so.

"What is your name?" As the figure of the young goddess gradually faded into the distance, Wu Feng asked her name one last time, at least to know who had passed on the message to him. He still had some impression of the mythology of this generation, and perhaps he could analyze some of it.

After leaving her name, the girl named "Kishal" disappeared completely from the three's sight, and Wu Feng fell into deep thought after hearing the name.

It wasn't because the name was famous, but rather because it was so obscure that Wu Feng had never heard of any place that worshipped Kishar in the past ten years.

The gods of the Sumerian era were false gods, unlike true gods who would not weaken even without faith. To maintain their power, they needed faith, and the more faith they had, the stronger they became.

Without faith, they would rapidly weaken, losing their great power even if they did not die. Once they fell, there was no hope of resurrection, and even if they rebuilt their faith, it would be of no use to a fallen god.

To deal with the gods, Wu Feng collected the names of most of the gods worshipped in various cities. None of them bore the name of Kishar, meaning she wasn't a god worshipped by any major city. If she were, it could only be a small town. But could the worship of a small town truly create a god of that caliber? Barehanded, he caught Jill's attack.

It seems I'll have to go back and investigate further. Having exhausted all other options, Wu Feng gave up.

"Teacher, what did you and that woman talk about?" After the young goddess left, Jill turned to Wu Feng with countless questions and asked. She had only heard the last few words, but those few words had already exposed the three people's previous actions against Lao Baba.

"Summon the members of [Stigmata] and [Holy Grail]. Some of our intelligence may have been exposed, so we need to act ahead of schedule." Rubbing the center of his forehead, Wu Feng made the decision and said to Gilles and Enkidu.

Both of them looked rather grim. Although they had picked up on something from the conversation earlier, they hadn't expected that they had actually been exposed.

"Teacher, is the information reliable? Only some of the elite members of the Holy Grail and Stigmata have met the expected requirements. The rest are not yet capable of fighting against a god." Enkidu's pretty face showed some difficulty. According to their current strength, they are not enough to fight against a god.

"There shouldn't be any mistakes. The plan needs to be revised; there's not enough time. The [Holy Grail] and [Stigmata] members have been reassigned to regular groups to carry out the mission of weakening the gods. The girl's arrival also indicates that the gods are about to make a major move. Even if the girl hadn't arrived, the plan still needed to be modified; one year is simply not enough."

"Then Uruk's defenses..." Enkidu hesitated, having even sent out the [Holy Grail] and [Stigmata], leaving the city's defenses completely empty.

"I'm enough on my own," Wu Feng said in a low voice.

……

Upon returning to Uruk, Wu Feng relayed all the information Kishar had given him to everyone in the Moon Tower, immediately modifying the Celestial's plan. That very day, a large-scale relocation of Uruk took place.

Before the relocation, all 1200 members of the Holy Grail and Stigmata were gathered in the area of ​​the Moon Tower. Normally, apart from Wu Feng, only a very few people had the right to pass through here. Today, all of them were summoned, and they all knew that something big was about to happen. They waited for orders with serious expressions.

"From the moment you joined the Holy Grail and the Stigmata, I think you should have understood its ultimate purpose," Wu Feng said slowly as he walked out of the Moon Tower and stood in front of the members of the Holy Grail and the Stigmata after organizing his thoughts.

"Defend Uruk! Slay the gods!" A unified voice rang out from below. The members who joined were all from the city of Uruk itself, which was the minimum requirement for joining the [Holy Grail] and [Stigmata].

"I have some bad news for you. The gods will be attacking Uruk soon," Wu Feng said solemnly. He then told them the reason for the gods' attack, how he and his companions hunted down Raubaba, and how they ambushed the gods.

"Now, you have two choices: go to other cities with the migrating people for refuge, or stay here. The gods are much stronger than you think, so you'd better think it over carefully." Wu Feng waited quietly for their choice. Fighting against the gods was extremely difficult, and whether they had the determination was up to them.

The scene was completely silent. Even a seasoned person would need a while to react after hearing the bad news until the first response rang out.

"I am willing to live and die with the king and the wise men," came the resounding answer from Gavin. He was the king's guard and also considered Wu Feng's half-disciple, so naturally he had no other choice.

Many of those in the Holy Grail and Stigmata are ordinary people who have been oppressed by the gods for decades. It would take them a short time to consider accepting this. After the first sound rang out, responses rang out one after another, quickly becoming a continuous chorus.

Wu Feng was somewhat gratified after hearing this, after all, these were people he and his group had personally trained.

"You are not yet fully grown, and your chances of winning in a direct confrontation with a god are very low, but there is a more important task for you."

Silence returned as they awaited Wu Feng's instructions. The pressure of confronting the gods was immense, given that they had grown up in the shadow of them since birth. Even though Uruk was slightly better off, it couldn't change the overall situation.

"I want you to destroy all the idols in the cities," Wu Feng said seriously, looking at them intently.

Although the members of the Holy Grail and Stigmata were puzzled by what Wu Feng said, their good manners prevented them from raising any questions, and they awaited Wu Feng's next instructions.

"Next, you will all be assigned to a city. No matter what method you use, you must find a way to infiltrate the city, enter the temple, and destroy the statues."

Wu Feng's words caused most of the people below to change their expressions slightly. Infiltrating the city was not difficult, but destroying the statue was a big problem. As a tool for the gods to collect faith in the human world, they valued it very much. If it was destroyed, they might even be able to come down in person.

"I will try my best to solve the problem of the gods. Most of you just need to find a way to infiltrate and escape, but there is still a small chance that you will encounter the gods, and there is nothing we can do about that." Just as they decided to complete the mission with their lives, Wu Feng's voice rang out again.

"If there are no further questions, begin immediately. We don't have much time left; we must destroy the statue as quickly as possible." To be continued...
