As a Ninja, I Just Want to Eat Soft Rice in Xingyue Chapter 279

"I will continue to stay in the army, obey King Gilgamesh's command, and protect my family and the land under my feet." The middle-aged soldier said without the slightest hesitation.

"If you stay in the army, you may die." Dong Yezao said seriously.

"Hahaha, everyone has to die, right? I am thirty-two years old this year, and I live longer than other people. And death is not a terrible thing. The goddess Ereshkigal will take us in , maybe in Hades, my family and I will have a chance to be reunited in the future."

The middle-aged soldier grinned grinningly, and his attitude towards death was like deciding whether to move or not.

In this era where humans and gods coexist and the underworld still exists, most human beings are very optimistic and tenacious creatures. They are not afraid of death, and they value living in the present. This is also the reason why people in this era can block the attack of monsters for half a year. .

Ereshkigal... Higashino felt a dull pain in his stomach, it was fine if the man didn't mention this name, but Higashino remembered that he had his own enemies in this era.

Thinking of Ellie's almost morbid obsession with herself in the Fifth Holy Grail War, Higashino felt that she should stay away from this troublesome woman, but the problem now is that if she wants to defeat Tiamat, she must rely on With Ai Lei's help, this made Dong Yezao very embarrassed.

My damn love affair... Dong Yezuo let out a long sigh, didn't he just steal some of her soul? As for thinking about me for so long? Speaking of which, Ellie seems to have left a mark on me. I wonder if she knows that I have come to this time and space.

"Traveler, why are you sighing?" the middle-aged soldier asked suspiciously.

"I'm afraid my life won't be long." Higashino shook his head helplessly. As for Ai Lei, he really had nothing to do with her. It was impossible to kill her. How would he fight Tiamat without her?

For the present plan, we can only take one step at a time. Maybe when Lixiang and the others come to this singularity point and conquer Ai Lei with their personality charm, it may not be possible for Ai Lei to come and work for him obediently.

The middle-aged soldier thought that Higashino was worried about the monster, and was about to comfort him when he suddenly heard a terrified cry from behind.

"Warcraft! It's a monster! The monster is coming! Soldiers, gather!"

As soon as the urgent shouts fell, the entire team of thousands of people fell into extreme chaos. The terrified civilians fled forward desperately, a lot of luggage was left behind, and there were endless cries and cries for help.

Dozens of soldiers rushed to the rear and set up a line of defense, trying to stop the monsters from hunting down civilians.

"You go! You are a traveler, there is no need to die here for us! Please take my family to Uruk, and I will stop the monster!"

The middle-aged soldier patted Dong Yezuo on the back, and after a simple entrustment, he picked up his spear and rushed to the rear of the team.

The opportunity to do meritorious deeds came... Higashino Zuo's eyes lit up, and he thought about how to gain Gilgamesh's favor, and the monsters came to his door by themselves, so don't take the credit for nothing.

Returning the child in his arms to the woman, Higashino Kou rushed to the rear and joined the soldiers.

"How did you come?"

When the middle-aged soldier saw Dong Yezao just now, his eyes widened in shock.

"I'm a magician, I think I can help you." Dong Yezao explained.

"Magician!? Are you a sacrificial officer! Great, we will be able to stop the monster with you." The middle-aged soldier passed over with great joy.

In this era where humans and gods coexist, magic still belongs to the realm of gods and spirits. Only gods and a few priests can use magic, so people who can use magic are often regarded as priests of gods.

It will take another thousand years for magic to spread from the realm of gods to mortals, until Solomon creates magic.

In the distance, the dust billowed and the earth trembled. Dong Yezao could feel the obvious tremor under his feet.

Soon, gigantic monsters appeared from the horizon. There was Ugal, a huge lion creature, and Mu Xiu Huxiu, who looked like an earth dragon and a scorpion. There are more than a hundred of them, and this army of dozens of people is afraid that they will be torn to pieces if they come into contact.

Faced with a group of monsters several times their number, all the soldiers present inevitably fell into fear, and some timid people even had the idea of ​​running away.

"Don't retreat! Don't retreat! Our family is behind us, we must stop the monster here!"

The leading non-commissioned officer yelled, and the tall figure on horseback slightly boosted the morale of the army.

The soldiers formed a phalanx under the command of the sergeant, with their shields facing outwards to form a shield wall. The spears were placed on the shields, and the sharp spears pointed directly at the invading monsters.

Courage is commendable, but it's just a mantis' arm as a cart. If I hadn't been there, few of this thousand-strong team would have made it to Uruk alive... Dong Yezao took a look at the team, stepped forward silently, and came to the front of the army formation.

"That man, come back quickly, don't go up to die!"

"Priest officer, even if you know magic, you can't do such a dangerous thing."

Ignoring the dissuasion of the soldiers behind him, Higashino Zuo's heart was very calm, and his expression was as calm as a mirror.

Counting the time, Higashino Zuo has not used his hand for twelve years, but Higashino Zuo has not slackened in his cultivation, and will still take time out to exercise himself every day, so his sharp sword will not rust and become blunt with the passage of time , On the contrary, it is getting sharper!

The swarm of monsters like raging waves is getting closer and closer, Higashino Zuo has only one thought in his mind: It's time to pretend!

boom! boom! boom!

Suddenly, a meteor flew from the sky, and sharp arrows composed of magic power poured down. The group of monsters that were unstoppable just now were thrown on their backs in the next second, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"Hahaha—let's go to Ma'anna and blow up all these disgusting monsters!"

There was a hearty female voice in the sky, Higashino looked up, and saw a woman wearing a black crown and very revealing clothes, who looked very similar to Tohsaka Rin at the age of sixteen, stepping on a sky shaped like a bow. On the boat, firepower was directed at the group of monsters below.

This... My opportunity to be a criminal was taken away... Higashino Kou looked at the woman's figure in a daze, and he didn't have much resentment for being robbed of the limelight by Ishtar in his heart, but showed a little happy expression.

Ishtar is a powerful combat force. If she can be recruited, it will be easier to attack the singularity.

wrong! How can I think so? Although Ishtar is very powerful, she has a terrible personality. Once I get entangled with her, I will be in big trouble. Who can guarantee that the other party will not become the second Ellie?

With my combat power, I can go head-to-head with Tima, and Chaldea's combat power is still sufficient. I can't get into trouble with Ishtar for a god-level combat power. I'd better pretend to be a passerby and don't be discovered by her. .

Making up his mind, Higashino Kou lowered his head and silently retreated behind the soldiers.

Ishtar unleashed his firepower crazily. Since it was a carpet bombing, Ishtar didn't bother to aim, so many arrows missed and flew into the crowd, causing an explosion.

boom!

Thick gunpowder smoke rose in the crowd behind him. Higashino reached out and used the ability of the eyes of reincarnation to absorb an arrow falling towards the soldiers, and then rushed into the crowd to see if there were any wounded.

I saw that beside the deep hole created by the arrows, many people had already fallen. A woman's legs were blown to pieces and she fell into a pool of blood. There was a child hugging the woman and crying beside her.

"This retarded goddess!"

Higashino couldn't help cursing, and hurried to the woman's side, not caring about exposing himself, and used the yin and yang escape technique to restore the woman's body.

When Higashino Zuo rescued the civilians who were accidentally injured, the people next to him also saw this almost miraculous medical technology, and looked at Higashino Zuo with awe and admiration. Many people directly called Higashino Zuo the priest.

After the last wounded was healed, Ishtar, who had dealt with the monster group, flew over in a panic, and murmured in horror:

"It's over! I accidentally overplayed it, how did I accidentally hurt a human? I will use my authority to resurrect the dead."

Ishtar flew over the deep pit with a haughty expression, coughed lightly, and asked calmly as if deliberately covering up his mistakes:

"I am Ishtar, Goddess of Heaven, bow down to me, mortals!"

Under the suppression of the goddess' personality and divinity, no one dared to doubt Ishtar's identity, and they all knelt down to worship in fear.

Looking at the crowd of mortals who paid homage to her, Ishtar nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and said:

"Where are the people who were injured and died because of monsters just now? Quickly move to my side, my goddess, I am merciful, just resurrect these poor people!"

The people looked at each other in dismay, feeling ashamed of this thick-skinned goddess in their hearts. Obviously he was the chief culprit of the casualties, but he was able to blame the monsters without changing his face, and he showed pity for the world. Many ordinary people dared not speak out.

Seeing that the mortals remained silent for a long time, and no one moved the wounded in front of him, Ishtar, who had waited for a while, couldn't help but said angrily:

"Hey! You don't think my mercy is cheap, do you? If you don't send the wounded and dead over, I won't care about you."

"Goddess, I have something to say."

Seeing Ishtar's tendency to get angry again, an old man hurriedly raised his hand, his body trembling.

"Come on, what's the matter?" Ishtar was a little impatient.

"It's like this..."

The old man explained to Ishtar that Higashino Kano had just cured all the wounded, but called Higashino Kano a mysterious priest.

"Oh~ someone can heal so many people in such a short time, is it because of a servant who was accidentally summoned to this era?"

"Old man, tell me, where is that priest? I want to see him."

Ishtar showed an interested look, thinking that if such a powerful doctor could bring her by his side to serve her, if she made today's mistake again in the future, he could just throw the doctor out to solve her troubles.

It is said that doctors need to charge money for treating diseases, let doctors treat mortals, and mortals pay gems and gold as rewards, and then ask the doctor to offer gems and gold as sacrifices, can't you make a lot of money? ?

Very well, I must get this doctor, but I can't let other goddesses or that annoying Gilgamesh get ahead of me.

The old man looked around blankly, and many civilians kneeling on the ground also looked around, trying to find the powerful priest, but found that Dong Yezuo had disappeared at some point.

"Female, my lord goddess, the priest is gone."

The old man said the situation in fear, with cold sweat on his forehead, fearing that he would offend this moody goddess.

"What! Missing? What does he look like? In which direction?"

Mortals cannot deceive the gods. After confirming that the old man was not lying, Ishtar showed a nervous expression. She didn't want the "little treasury" she was about to get to fly away!

PS: The picture of Ishtar will not be released, it should not pass the review.

Chapter 439 435. My father, Anu, never beat me like this!

"The priest looks very beautiful, and he is a man. I have never seen such a handsome man in my life for so many years. I don't know where he went, but he disappeared as soon as he came to his senses." The old man replied with a trembling body. .

"A very good-looking man!"

Ishtar's eyes lit up, and his heart became more determined to take away the doctor and make him his servant.

"Hey, it's not your fault that the priest disappeared, so I forgive you for neglecting the goddess. Now offer the tribute, gold and gems are fine, I won't despise your respect, as long as it is valuable, I will accept it all .”

Ishtar has a charming smile on his face, as happy as a social animal when his monthly salary arrives.

"Gong, tribute?"

The old man was stunned, and so were the other humans. How could a goddess take the initiative to ask for tributes? This is too ugly!

"What? I am your goddess. Isn't it your obligation to pay tribute to me?" Ishtar frowned, his face becoming displeased, "Don't you think the gift of the goddess is cheap? Saved you from the monster's claws? Without me, you would have been killed by the monster, right? Shouldn't I express my gratitude to the goddess?"

Ishtar's series of accusations completely questioned the human beings, but the situation is as Ishtar said, without her help, everyone will die in the pursuit of monsters, although her rescue is very nonsense and hurts Ordinary civilians, but she is indeed the savior of all.

"Goddess, please wait a moment, I will raise the tribute for you right now."

The old man kowtowed helplessly, then got up, and after discussing with several respected people in the team, he took out a bag and asked everyone in the team to put some valuables in it.

It was really bad luck for the Sumerians to have such a goddess...

Among the crowd, Higashino, who used the transformation technique to disguise himself as a Sumerian, twitched the corners of his mouth twice, completely speechless at the faceless goddess Ishtar.

Just when Higashino was debating whether to take action to teach this unscrupulous goddess a lesson, he saw a young woman next to him reluctantly take out a headdress inlaid with gemstones from her arms, and put it into the deposit box with tears in her eyes. A bag for offerings.

"Mom, isn't that what Dad gave you?"

The child next to the woman made an ignorant and puzzled sound. The woman did not speak, but hugged the child tightly, covering her mouth and crying.

"That's Irina. It's so pitiful. Her husband and parents died in the monster's attack. She didn't have any valuables on her. It must be very difficult to go to Uruk to ask for a living, let alone bring a child with her."

"King Gilgamesh will take care of everyone. Irina is still young. If she is willing to work, she should be able to support herself and her children."

"Don't be so optimistic. There are so many people fleeing. How can there be jobs for foreigners in Uruk. It is estimated that only brothels will take her in."

There was a sigh from the crowd, the world is difficult now, it is hard enough to survive alone, who has the energy to help a widow.

The goddess Ishtar doesn't care about the lives of mortals. She waved, and the bag full of tributes flew towards her. After looking at the golden gems in the bag, Ishtar showed a satisfied smile.

"Hey, I got another batch of tributes, and I can rebuild my temple with a few more visits. Maanna, let's go!"

Ishtar, who returned with a full load, was driving the sky boat and was about to go to the next place to ask for tribute, when suddenly a hand was placed on her shoulder.

"Hey, why do you feel a little heavy on your shoulders? Is it my illusion?"

Ishtar showed a puzzled look. This place is tens of meters high, and it is impossible for ordinary people to touch her, unless...

"Who dares to touch the body of the goddess without permission! This is disrespectful!"

Ishtar turned her head angrily, trying to see who the villain was who touched her, and then her angry expression turned into fear very quickly.

"You, you, you are Dong Yezao!!!"

Ishtar let out a piercing scream, and his whole body seemed to have encountered a cat's mouse. His whole body was trembling with fright, and he couldn't help but retreat.

"Oh, you actually know me, we should just meet for the first time."

Dongyezuo's Tenseiyan and Liugouyu's Eyes of Reincarnation lit up, exuding a dangerous halo, and his whole body was like a terrifying active volcano, as if it would erupt in the next second.

"Hahaha, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here. I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so let's go first!"

Ishtar laughed dryly, turned his head trembling, and started the sky boat to escape.

Higashino squeezed Ishtar's hand suddenly, and there was a crackling sound of bone shattering. Before Ishtar could scream in pain, Higashino whispered in her ear:

"If you don't want to leave now, you'd better explain it clearly to me. I always keep my word. If I say kill your whole family, I will kill your whole family."

"I said! I said! Don't kill me, it's hard to be alive once, I haven't played enough yet!"

Ishtar resolutely confessed, like an eggplant beaten by frost, said dejectedly:

"I don't know you, but the owner of my body knows you."
