The Holy Grail War of God's Blessing

It will take time to restore the city to its former glory, so let’s first take a look at the original owner of the city.

As a religious holy city, the real rulers of Nippur were naturally the priests who controlled the divine power, and there was no need for a king.

The rule here should probably remain the same now, which is just a story before the king appeared in the Sumerian land, the era when the priests were kings.

As the era is too ancient, there are not many records of the priest king’s rule, and people can only guess at the system at that time.

But whether the priests take turns to be kings in a parliamentary system or kill each other to take over the throne, the ruler here is still in this tower temple.

Although there may not be much power left here, after all, the gods have left and the city is already crumbling. ⑤

At this moment, there would be no king in Sumer who would need to come to this city for coronation. There was nothing left in Sumer, so what would be left in this city?

"Stranger, are you a messenger from Uruk, sent by King Gilgamesh?"

The priests who came down set up their formation and asked Manshu.

"No, it is true that I came here from Uruk, but I did not come here on the orders of Gilgamesh. Calling it a request or even an exchange is barely acceptable."

Manshu withdrew his magic power, turned his head and said.

"Ah... then... please give us the certificate from Uruk for inspection. Although the monsters are merciless to the living, there are still cities that have taken refuge with the Monster Goddess in order to survive. Although we don't know if they are still alive, we must always be on guard against imposters."

The priests looked at each other in bewilderment at Mansu's words. They had not expected someone to be so disrespectful to King Gilgamesh. They did not know what to do and could only ask for an inspection and proof. As long as it was genuine, they would send the person up and hand it over to the experienced old men.

As for the impostors, it is better to say that there is the most famous impostor in this land, that is Jingu who calls himself Enkidu.

However, apart from these, there were no citizens from other cities who could serve as spies. After all, the Warcraft Goddess did not leave any of the four who surrendered alive and crushed them all into pulp.

"I threw that thing to the non-commissioned officer there when I got here. Their people should be here soon. The people who can explain it to you are also here. I just didn't want to waste my breath, so I came here alone first."

Manshu spread his hands and then walked towards the pagoda temple.

"...In that case, please follow us to see the chief priest."

The priests were silent for a moment, still unwilling to do anything themselves. They decided to leave everything to the person who could make the decision, so they did not say much and led their people up to the temple.

However, the last priest naturally went back first and informed the chief priest of the situation.

"Are you quite impatient with King Gilgamesh's tone? That may not be such a bad thing."

The chief priest said this calmly, waved his hand and asked people to prepare the greeting and welcome ceremony.

The priests who went to greet them were also proceeding normally. After all, this was a religious city, and the most important thing was naturally the various rituals.

"Messenger from Uruk, Nippur salutes you."

When Manjusri arrived at the door of the temple, the priests spoke together.

"Welcome to the pure and holy temple, in the presence of Enlil's holiness, may you bring equally pure news."

"Of course. What I brought is naturally a sacred word. It is a pure command that has been in effect since ancient times and cannot be changed. Whether in Nippur, Uruk, or even in the entire Sumer, there is nothing more sacred than this, and nothing more capable of standing here and speaking."

Manshuhao said bluntly, without looking at the priests who were thinking about the temple, but was looking at the temple.

Obviously, Mansu had already regarded this place as his own private property and was ready to establish his throne in this city and in this palace, and what he said was indeed true.

These priests are nothing more than servants of God. Could they be more worthy of being here than God himself?

The towers and temples that rise from the ground and reach toward the sky were made by human hands, but they were reserved for God.

In the stories that are passed down, people’s past is erased, and what remains is only the story of God, and the master here has long been God.

"Your tone is a bit exaggerated. Even if it is King Gilgamesh... Only King Gilgamesh could say such arrogant words, but they are just arrogant words after all."

The chief priest had already prepared himself for what was expected and his face was a little tense, but he still managed his expression and spoke to Manshu.

"Of course, Gilgamesh's arrogance makes him say unrealistic things, but you also know that they are just the words of a madman. He just has the power to speak wildly."

Manshu looked around and walked inside.

"But I am different. I have the power to say these words, and I also have the qualifications to say these words, so that these are not just the words of a madman, but an established fact."

Manshu took out the stone with the angry snake carved on it from his body and let it fall to the ground.

The stone that fell to the ground immediately merged into the floor below, as if it had melted and became liquid, spreading on the ground.

Although the stone looked small, it melted on the ground and covered the entire floor at a very fast speed, and moved towards the surroundings of the temple.

"Since you are the priest of this temple and manage this God's residence on behalf of God, you should be able to open your eyes and see clearly who is in front of you!"

The priests could only watch as Manshu walked forward, until he came in front of the chief priest and shouted at him.

Because they have lost the ability to move, as if they were fixed in place and stagnant.

The emotion of fear was born in their hearts, and the source came from the terrible pressure from the outside. That pressure made them realize that even if they moved a little, even for a minute or a second, they might die.

They also lost the ability to move, as if their nerves had lost control of their bodies, like a vegetable, but they could still stand in the same place, just unable to move at all.

"This is not a messenger who came to assist and rescue us. It is clearly a man-eating lion. King Gilgamesh, who hunts lions, how could you make such a mistake?"

The priest who was fixed in place thought so in his heart.

"Although I am the chief priest of this temple, it is only because of my age. My eyes are not as far-sighted as the King of Uruk, and I really cannot see the real thing under your ordinary body. Please explain it to us."

The high priest swallowed subconsciously. He felt more pressure after being shouted at because he realized that the man in front of him was not an ordinary person.

The high priest saw the changes that had taken place in the entire temple. The stones that fell from Mansu's hands had covered the walls of the entire palace.

The murals on the wall were carved by Manshu, a scene he had seen countless times.

The gods were celebrating and rejoicing at the banquet. They gathered here again, but this time it was not just a banquet.

At this moment, all the gods are gathered before the throne of the King of Gods, worshiping and gathering here under his rule.

It might be disrespectful to see such a scene in this temple, but it is real.

That mysterious aura cannot be ignored, the power belonging to the gods can be felt, it is real and not false, even an illusion should not be like this.

This may make people show a look of horror on their faces, but they dare not believe it and can only ask questions carefully.

"So... whatever. You really need to see everything happen in front of your eyes before you can believe it. Regardless of whether what appears before your eyes is true or false, once it happens you will change your mind and believe it easily."

⑨Mansu said this and pushed the chief priest aside, walking forward to the abode of God and to the seat of the king.

④ "Come and praise me. This is what you can do. Since you are priests, you should fulfill your duties."

⑧Manjusri spoke to the priests, and not only the priests responded, but also the gods who had appeared on the murals.

②The gods on the wall came to life, began to move their bodies, and immediately made sounds from their mouths and began to sing.

④ "Enlil! His powerful cry, his sacred words, are everywhere!

③The words from his mouth cannot be changed, and what he judges remains the same from eternity!

③ He looked up and shook the mountains! He released his light and penetrated the mountains!

0 Father Enlil sits in the holy temple, the great temple!

⑤ He——Nunamnir! His rule, his kingdom, perfect!

The gods of the earth worshiped before him, and the Anunnaki gathered before him, gathering together with firm faith in his wisdom!

......"

The songs of praise were endless, and as the gods sang, the priests also began to sing along.

In the singing, they found that their stiff bodies began to regain consciousness and could be mobilized, but faced with such a strange situation, they did not dare to act rashly. They just followed the singing and began to perform their previous singing rituals.

The city of Nepal was the place where Enlil's sacred laws were promulgated, and there was a feast as a ceremony that lasted from sunrise to sunset. It was a ceremony full of milk, honey and joy.

Amid the singing, Manjushri raised his throne from the ground, absorbed everything on the earth, and began to make the temple glow as well, appearing mysterious on the earth.

Purity and holiness truly fell here, and the gods worshipped here and began to celebrate the majesty of this place.

The first thing to be shaken was the ground beneath the temple, which had previously been endowed with magic and transformation.

During the tremor, the earth and rocks on the ground were pulled up, causing a mountain to rise from the ground, allowing this city connecting heaven and earth to regain its majestic appearance.

The soldiers who were resisting the monsters on the city wall also felt the vibration coming from the center of the city this time. They looked back and then knelt on the ground in ecstasy.

Chapter 144: Tampering

What rose up from the ground was the Second Temple located in the center of the city. Although the soldiers did not know what caused this, it was enough to know where it was.

The rising temple emits a sky blue light, and what people can see with their naked eyes is sacredness and purity, which is definitely not a bad thing.

Since it was not a bad thing, and was worthy of the work of the gods who were wreaking havoc on this land, it could only be that the master of the temple had once again responded to them in despair.

If the god Enlil could return, what did Nippur have to worry about? How could anyone, anything, or anything else be able to threaten this sacred city?

The soldiers who are holding on here are almost filled with despair. The only hope they have is the temple in the center of the city, which comes from the gods they believe in.

Regardless of whether what appeared was a miracle of the god Enlil or not, treating it as true in one's heart could at least soothe one's heart and arouse more hope.

Otherwise, who knows when he would go completely mad and lose his mind in the seemingly endless siege of monsters.

Perhaps many people have overlooked the fact that they are still on the battlefield and the monsters' attacks have not stopped. Although a large number of monsters were killed when Manshu came, there are still a certain number of monsters continuing to attack.

When they turned around and knelt down to pray towards the central temple, the monsters climbed up the city wall, ready to take advantage of the vacuum in defense to rush into the city, so that they could have a hearty meal and enjoy the taste of flesh and blood.

These monsters are naturally man-eating. Flesh and blood are the best food. They can satisfy their animal nature and also satisfy the anger in the heart of the mother who created them.

9. "Giant God! The Lord! He is the most powerful in the universe!"

lin “His residence – Nippur, the leader of the heavens and earth!

Damn his walls! Even gods cannot approach!

Outside the city, the roar of the warriors and the cries of the battlefield were deafening! He set a trap for the enemy and caught them all in one fell swoop!

Enmity, sabotage, quarrels, harsh judgments and oppressions, malice, violence, denunciations, impudence, breaking of promises - such evils are not to be found in a city-state!

The arm of Nippur - its immense net! The eagle flies freely in the city! Enemies and villains have no place to hide! "

⑨ But now that the temple has risen from the ground and the boundaries of the entire city have changed, what real possibility does the monsters' wishful thinking have?

０ The monsters used their sharp claws to try to climb up the defensive walls. When they climbed to the top of the wall and were about to extend their claws and step into this sacred city, there would naturally be a majestic light that would purify all unclean things that tried to defile the city.

5 The city has turned into the Nippur of the past, and the rich mystery gradually covers the entire city from the sky blue light emanating from the temple.

Although it is temporarily impossible to restore the city's most glorious era and restore its appearance as the residence of the God-King, this is enough to make the city a sacred and clean place.

All the monsters that climbed up the city walls eventually turned into dust. Faced with the mysterious pressure that erupted from the city, the remaining monsters followed their inner instincts and turned around to flee.

"His altar is strong and majestic, and on every festival day, oil pours forth abundantly. His vision is great, his intentions are magnificent, the sunset is a festival, the sunrise is a festival, and the temple of Enlil is a mountain of abundance!"

After covering the entire city with power, making it a safe area and cutting out dangerous worries, it is time to let material things fill this place as well.

As a city on the front line of the absolute Warcraft front, Nippur has lost all the rural towns outside it. Without the support of these secondary structures, the only thing this city can rely on is obtaining resources from the outside.

After all, Uruk was still able to maintain its secondary structure, and through the Absolute Beast Front, most of the monsters were basically blocked in the north of the city, but there was no way to deal with the cities outside the Absolute Beast Front.

But at least we got support from Uruk. After all, this city was not far from the Warcraft front, so transporting supplies was not too troublesome.

At least one round trip can be made within half a day, so that supplies can be transported at night.

At night, the attack intensity of the monsters will also decrease significantly, and most of the monsters will choose to return to the forest to rest. At this time, although there is still danger if you walk out of the monster line, it is much smaller.

But even so, the transportation of materials is still dangerous, self-sufficiency is still necessary, and abundance is the most basic thing. :

Besides, Manshu already holds abundance in his hands, so there is no need to worry about anything. All he needs to do is wave his hands and spread the light of life.

From this mountain rising from the ground, the power of abundance flows from Manjushri's hands, and the bull's horn from the Canaanite god-king becomes this mountain.

"The tillers have made the fields broad, and the harvest has already gathered when you walk through them, and the blue Ekur is not in danger of being harassed!"

God used his hands to mark the sacred boundaries on this earth, and his breath gave this land fertility and moisture.

Manshu closed his eyes and swept the priests out of the palace. They were pushed out by a strong force.

"My priests must be perfect and skilled in sacrificial rituals, and my clergy must be clean and good at prayer. Only the strong and powerful are worthy of being my shepherds and can share the honor of this temple." 3

Manshu said this and closed the door of the temple, blocking the sight of all the priests. They could not stop looking into the temple and could only find their way again.

But the closed door was so tight that even the dilapidated parts that had faded over the years looked brand new. There was no gap that allowed people to see the colors inside the temple, and not even a glimmer of light could be caught.

The priests looked at each other, not knowing what to do. The scene before them really made them helpless.

"Our elder, our chief priest, you are the oldest and wisest among us, what should we do now?"

Since you don’t know what to do, you can only seek wisdom from others, which can also help you to pull yourself out of it.

People always ask questions from elders and seek advice from higher-ups. The former high priest naturally meets both of these requirements, but relatively speaking, he was indeed just an old man.

According to the Sumerian King List, Gilgamesh reigned as King of Uruk for 126 years. He was also the last king to be recorded with an exaggerated number in the Sumerian King List.

After Gilgamesh, the records in the Sumerian King List changed from being exaggerated in mythology to being normal. Gilgamesh's son reigned for 30 years, the next king for 15 years, and the next king for 9 years. These times have become more realistic.
