Li Lin couldn't help but shake his head.
I don't know if this girl did it on purpose or accidentally.
Even if you want to liven things up, this isn't the way to do it.
Sure enough, upon hearing the word 'old' for the second time, even with her high level of composure, Siduri couldn't help but twitch her lips.
What should I do? Why do I have this urge to hit someone?
Forcibly suppressing her speechlessness, Siduri continued.
"I was very young at the time and didn't understand many things."
"I don't know why the gods want to exterminate humanity, when we haven't done anything wrong."
"But later, due to an accident, or rather, a struggle for survival, I gradually understood the secret after meeting my master."
"Everything in the world can be condensed into one person's life."
"I have no lifespan limit, yet I had to risk leaving the city gates to survive. In the end, I saw death amidst my desperate cries."
"But death did not devour me; instead, it gently lifted me up and allowed me to see the 'sun'."
"I see. Your experiences must have been passed down to King Gilgamesh, right? After all, in legend, it was a Lady of Ale who guided that king to see through life and death."
Merlin, rubbing his chin thoughtfully, chimed in.
"Yes."
Siduri nodded.
"That's why we believe that fate isn't necessarily perfect. If we strive for it, there might be a chance to change things."
"Ah, but what does this have to do with Li Lin's identity? I still don't understand."
Gudako next to him scratched her head, looking completely bewildered.
"Beep beep beep beep, Fujimaru-chan, can you hear me?"
Just then, Gudako's wrist communicator made a sound, and Leonardo da Vinci and Dr. Roman, who were far away in Chaldea, finally made contact with them.
“We heard your conversation just now.”
"After a professional historical investigation, Fujimaru-chan, it seems you've drawn an extraordinary card."
Leonardo da Vinci's voice drifted over through the microphone.
She said.
"Although the Bible also records the Great Flood, Miss Siduri is clearly not telling the Christian story."
"In that case, we began our investigation through various ancient documents, and finally, by combining our findings with your conversation, we found some clues."
"Uh, Da Vinci-chan, can you get to the point? You're going around in circles, it's making my head spin."
Seeing that the other end of the communication channel had gone on and on without clearly explaining Li Lin's identity, Gudako couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Riddler, get out of Chaldea! You bastard!
Leonardo da Vinci said, "Simply put, the one before you is the god who saved us from that great flood."
"It is both death and the sun. Am I right, sir?"
“That’s right.” Li Lin nodded, then said speechlessly, “I’ve been traveling all this way, and you’ve finally figured out what happened.”
"I clearly presented the answer from the very beginning."
"Wait, when did you present the answer? I didn't know."
Upon hearing this, Gudako was the first to object.
She stepped forward, hands on her hips, and said.
"Mashu and I don't understand either, and you riddle people, can't you speak more clearly?"
"That's right, that's right, senior is right!"
Seeing this, Mashu also stepped forward, appearing to stand with her master.
"By the way, Merlin, you probably don't know either, right? Hurry up and stand over here."
Gudako glanced at the white-haired online scammer next to her, gestured with her lips, and indicated that the other person should move over a little.
Upon hearing this, Merlin smiled and shook his head, then splashed a basin of water on Gudako and said.
"Actually, the king and I had already guessed it long ago."
"Huh? When!" Gudako exclaimed in surprise, her face falling into a cat-like expression.
"When will it be? Probably when Li Lin and Ishtar are interacting."
"After all, in mythology, there is only one person I can think of who has such a close relationship with Ishtar. He is both the god of death and the god of light."
"......"
"Fine, you guys win. So only Mashu and I were kept in the dark, right?"
Upon hearing Merlin's explanation, Gudako immediately deflated.
Everyone's a riddle teller, how can we play like this?
"We've arrived. His Majesty has been waiting for us for quite some time."
At this moment, Siduri, who was walking in front, interrupted their conversation.
Following the guards' report, Li Lin and his party quickly arrived at the main hall and once again saw the golden-haired King Gilgamesh.
To everyone's surprise, the king has been busy with his work ever since they left.
Upon seeing this, Merlin instinctively took a step back, silently shielding everyone in front of him.
He's still young, and he doesn't want to die from overwork.
Anyway, with Li Lin around, even if the king dies, he might be able to be brought back to the underworld.
Yeah, I'll have to come back to work overtime.
"It seems you've handled things well."
Gilgamesh temporarily put down the stone tablet in his hand.
He glanced at Ishtar, who was looking utterly bored beside him, and nodded in agreement.
"No, King Gilgamesh, you misunderstand. The task you entrusted to us is only one step away from completion."
At this moment, Li Lin suddenly stepped forward.
He wiped his eyes, his face filled with grief and indignation, and then said in a tone tinged with regret.
"You know just how insatiable the goddess Ishtar is."
"She said that unless you give her a third of the treasure, she would rather watch Uruk perish than offer even the slightest help."
"Alas, he is the guardian deity of Uruk, yet he intends to watch his people suffer."
"Your Majesty, I have tried my best to persuade her, but it was no use."
Li Lin shook his head, his face full of regret and reluctance.
Gilgamesh: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Ishtar: "........"
Ps..............
Ishtar: Damn it, he slandered me! He slandered me! .....
Chapter 130, You can still divide the inheritance even without marriage [Contract] [Outrageous Theory]
"Damn it, I never said that..."
"Woooooo~~"
Ishtar was about to retort when Li Lin suddenly covered her mouth with a quick movement.
Li Lin leaned closer and whispered something in her ear.
"Idiot, I'm trying to get what's best for you."
"Don't you want glittering treasure?"
"Woo~~".
Upon hearing this, Ishtar, who had been making a fuss, immediately fell silent.
It's important to know that ever since she was tricked by Ereshkigal during her trip to the underworld, her life has been very difficult.
It's not that she didn't want to be unrestrained, but that she didn't dare.
She naively thought that once she came to Earth, Ellie would no longer be able to control her.
As for what debts he owes, it's obviously because he's a deadbeat!
Why should Ishtar, a capricious and willful goddess, be so faithful?
In the end, unsurprisingly, an accident occurred.
She never expected that Ai Lei would be able to barely get to the ground with Li Lin's help.
Although there is a time limit, the power is not strong.
But with that IOU, he could control her in almost every way.
Therefore, when she heard Li Lin mention the word 'treasure', it instantly triggered her instinctive reaction.
"Okay, remember to give me a generous share."
Ishtar's expression changed instantly.
His initial anger transformed into a righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor.
Gilgamesh: ".............."
Do you think we're all deaf? You're plotting to seize my property.
And Ishtar, he was just calling you trash, and now you've been taken advantage of?
At this moment, Gilgamesh suddenly had the illusion that he was meeting Ishtar for the first time.
I have a feeling that ever since I met Li Lin, he's become a little too easy to deal with.
"Sigh, never mind. I can't give you a third of the property. Uruk also needs my weapons for defense, so I can only give you a fifth at most."
Gilgamesh sighed.
Although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to part with it for the sake of Uruk's future.
"One-fifth? That's a bit low."
Before Ishtar could excitedly nod in agreement, Li Lin grabbed the silly goddess and said...
"How about this? I have no use for all your treasures. In exchange, you can just give me access to one-sixth of the King's Treasury."
"Hey! Why has it suddenly decreased in number?!"
Upon hearing that Li Lin had changed the original one-fifth to one-sixth, Ishtar immediately objected.
Is this person sick?
Why would they refuse extra money and instead rush to return it?
"listen to me!"
Li Lin glanced at the noisy Ishtar beside him, and his tone suddenly became serious.
He understands the difference between exploiting resources to the point of exhaustion and sustainable development.
The Royal Treasury is a special treasure that continues to collect wealth even after Gilgamesh's death. The right to use it is definitely more worthwhile than simply taking a portion of it.
Upon hearing this, Gilgamesh fell silent.
Although he appeared calm on the surface, people could still see the faint blue veins on his forehead.
Good heavens, this is about dividing up the family fortune!
