Chapter 304: Choice
As night fell, a group of people walked on the way back.
Gilgamesh held Geyue's sleeve and walked in the front, chatting with Geyue at this time, behind them, the soldiers who were healed by Geyue's holy light showed devout and fanatical expressions Looking up at Geyue's back.
It was dark, but they weren't disoriented or lost or anything.
The bright moon in the sky is more conspicuous than anything else, it emits a soft and bright light, the light of the stars will be dimmed by the brilliance of the moon, and its light will take away its place in the sky.
"Master, look, there is the city of Uruk!"
After a while, Gilgamesh pointed to the front, where a ray of light could be faintly seen flickering on the ground, like a pearl inlaid on the ground.
There was an innocent smile on his face, and even the eyes of those remnant soldiers shone brightly.
Ge Yue gazed at the shining place, it was a city made of a kind of black stone, although it is not clear what kind of material it is, but the heavy feeling is still reassuring.
This is an impenetrable city wall, which is the first impression people see when they see this city wall.
"As expected of a creation of the Age of Gods."
Geyue sighed in admiration, and was dragged into the city by Gilgamesh.
Afterwards, after confirming his identity to the soldiers on duty on the city wall, Gilgamesh walked into the city amid the cheers of the soldiers, and walked along the main road in the city towards the royal palace in the center of the city.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of the palace, there was an old man in a gorgeous white robe and a golden laurel crown on his head.
"Your Majesty, you are back."
The old man saluted Gilgamesh respectfully, and said, "Your mother, Queen Ningsun, has issued an oracle to tell you to go to the Great Temple after you come back."
"OK."
Gilgamesh nodded, then pointed to Geyue, and said, "He is my master, and the high priest should arrange him properly."
"Your will."
A strange look flashed in the high priest's eyes, and he said obediently, "I will definitely not neglect this honorable lord."
"Um."
Gilgamesh hummed lightly, then waved at Geyue: "Master, then we will see you tomorrow."
"good."
Geyue nodded, watched Gilgamesh leave, then turned her gaze to the high priest, and said, "Let's go, take me to the place where I practice."
"My lord, please."
The high priest bowed and respectfully led Geyue to a courtyard with a beautiful environment, then bowed and left.
"Uruk."
Ge Yue walked into the courtyard, sat on the fence of a balcony, leaned against the wall, squinted her eyes, carefully looked at the quiet city, and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth.
In the early morning of this day, the bright sunshine poured warm light into the courtyard through the blue gap.
Geyue sat on the stone table in the courtyard, watching the quietly rising sun, silently analyzing the shackles of the crown of thorns above her head.
"Master!"
Not long after, a cheer came from outside the courtyard, but it was Gilgamesh and several guards who walked in.
"You came."
Ge Yue glanced up at Gilgamesh, pointed to the seat in front of him, and said, "Sit down."
"OK."
Gilgamesh sat on it obediently, opened his big eyes, and asked expectantly, "Master, what skills are you going to teach me today?"
"It's not urgent. Before I teach you the skills, I need to make it clear to you first."
Ge Yue squinted her eyes, flicked her fingers, and a pure white cloud emerged, then suddenly inflated, covering the two of them, cutting off all outside detection.

Afterwards, he said with a smile: "Being my disciple is very risky. If one fails, you, including your country, will be destroyed in an instant."
Gilgamesh became tense instantly, subconsciously tightened his body, and asked, "Why?"
"I and the gods are inseparable!"
Geyue showed a mouthful of white teeth, and smiled a little piercingly.
"I can't live with the gods!!!"
Gilgamesh shivered, and asked tremblingly: "Master, do you have any deep hatred with the gods?"
"No, I have no enmity or enmity with your gods, but the first thing I will do in my upcoming great cause is to kill those gods to sacrifice to the heavens."
Ge Yue stared at Gilgamesh's eyes, and asked lightly: "So, do you still want to be my disciple?"
"hiss"
Gilgamesh gasped, his face showed obvious fear, and he was deeply shocked by Geyue's words.
In this era, the gods are the supreme rulers, the rulers of all orders, if they want to confront the gods, it is tantamount to seeking their own death.
Even uttering a bad word will be detected by the gods, and then the gods will be punished, causing them to die miserably.
And the words in Ge Yue's mouth were the most disrespectful among disrespects. Once revealed, it would definitely arouse the wrath of the gods and bring down a huge disaster.
Working with Geyue is undoubtedly walking between cliffs, and if one is not careful, one's body will be smashed to pieces.
Moreover, this seriously violated the mission of being born as a "wedge of heaven".
Therefore, Gilgamesh hesitated at this moment and fell into a deep contradiction.
He is eager to learn how to become stronger from Geyue, but he is also afraid that one day he will be implicated by Geyue, causing his Uruk to be angered by the gods.
Geyue looked at Gilgamesh's hesitant and struggling expression with great interest, and he would not be surprised by Gilgamesh's choice.
Because time and space are already closed loops, cause and effect have been fitted, and Gilgamesh's choice has long been doomed.
Even if Gilgamesh chooses to refuse at this time, he will inevitably become his disciple under the guidance of "fate" in the near future.
Therefore, Ge Yue didn't panic at all.
"teacher."
After a while, Gilgamesh seemed to have made up his mind, and asked hoarsely, "How sure are you against the gods?"
"Oh, it seems that you have made a choice."
Hearing this, Ge Yue chuckled, stretched out one hand and clenched it slightly, and said with a disdainful look: "I'll kill a mere 'God' like a dog."
"this"
Gilgamesh had a hesitant expression on his face. Geyue's words were too confident and arrogant, which made him feel like the other party was trying to fool him.
But driven by the desire to become stronger and the trace of rebellion in his heart that has not been fully revealed, he is still ready to gamble with everything he has.
If you win, you can gain the power to break free from the 'Mandate of Heaven'.
If you lose, the big deal is to apologize with death.
"Please master teach me how to become strong, so strong that I am not afraid of the gods."
Gilgamesh got up from the stone chair, knelt down in front of Geyue, and said with a determined face.
"Wise choice."
Geyue looked down at Gilgamesh and said calmly, "But becoming my disciple is not that simple, you still need to pass a test."
