On the contrary, Merlin remained calm, and even had a calm smile on his face.

Everyone who discovered this subconsciously focused their attention on the flower magician, wanting to see what else he would say.

They were nervous, angry, and hoping that all this was just Merlin's wrong guess.

That answer is really too crazy, dark, and scary.

But--

Merlin: "Just look around and you'll understand.

There are too few men.

This was too unnatural for Ur who had no fight.

In this case, their disappearance is naturally due to other reasons. "

Everyone:! ?

They looked around, and sure enough they didn't see many men. The few men were skinny and not strong.

'I'm surprised, Merlin's observation is so keen. It can’t be true! ’

The changes in the faces of the people around him and the increased tension and uneasiness were also noticed by people.

Coupled with the silence of this group of people,

This further validates Merlin's statement...

Everyone felt gloomy for a moment.

Woman: “I-we didn’t do anything wrong!

Living sacrifices are the necessary price!

Everyone is selected based on acceptance and recognition! Just pick one person a day and send it to Eridu as a living sacrifice!

In this way, the devil will be satisfied! "

finally--

The woman stopped making excuses and admitted Merlin's suspicion.

Even the other person started calling her a devil instead of a goddess.

Everyone's high-spirited hearts finally fell to the bottom.

They clenched their fists, feeling angry, disgusted, and powerless that humans had to sacrifice others to survive in such a cruel era.

What a sad thing that is! Actually, actually have to rely on...living sacrifices!

How did those who were sent away feel about welcoming ‘death’!

hateful!

People hated the goddess they had never met before even more.

‘So, don’t put your hopes in gods, humans! ’

If you think about it carefully, in the Epic of Gilgamesh, the heroic king takes people to say goodbye to the gods. Maybe there is a reason why humans rely too much on the gods.

This makes them unable to even ‘refuse’.

Mashu and the others were shocked and puzzled by this—!

He angrily asked them why they protected themselves in this way and why they neither fought nor asked Uruk for help!

But the woman shouted, ‘You outsiders don’t understand anything! ’

"You can say such stupid things because you have never seen that terrifying goddess...!

Even if the citizens of Ur work together, they can't defeat that goddess!

Communication doesn’t work either!

That is basically a monster that lives in the forest, a monster that can only 'prey' and 'kill'! "

Halfway through speaking, the woman's whole body suddenly started to tremble.

That's a fear people can clearly feel.

“The only thing we can do is to be patient while fearing when it will be our turn...!

So please come back, everyone.

There is no normal place in any corner of Mesopotamia, no human ethics at all...! "

The people nearby heard the conversation of several people and lowered their heads with guilt on their faces.

And everyone was silent,

Faced with such a desperate scene, in this cruel era, he did not say a word.

It seems that no matter how hard you try, the result will be the same.

No wonder they are so desperate and even give in.

They have never experienced it, and now... everything they say seems to be a bit egotistical and arrogant...

...I am not a person of that era, so I am not qualified to question others.

Questioning that desperate desire to live.

This reminds people of the scene in the game No Life Zero where Riku ordered his teammates to sacrifice themselves for the survival of mankind at the beginning.

Compared to that time——

The current situation may not be much better...

Merlin sighed that it would be difficult to convince them now, and there would be no way to continue collecting information.

Matthew: "I'm sorry. I didn't consider Mr. Merlin's plan or the mood of the woman just now, so I said those words without thinking..."

"That's not a thoughtless statement." Guda,

“…but…I did hurt that woman.

The person involved should be the one suffering the most, but I..." Ma Xiu looked very remorseful.

Chapter 877 If nothing can be saved, then why not save it? still……

Guda said in a low mood that this was not a thoughtless statement...

Because Guda felt the same at this time.

'Don't fight for anything, just rely on others to make sacrifices...'

Guda clenched his fists... 'Isn't this weird? ’

? ? ? : "Ah ha——

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! "

At this moment, a familiar and exaggerated laughter suddenly came from the air.

‘? ! Is it that Leopard Man... the funny Servant? ’ This is everyone’s subconscious thought.

Yes, funny Servant...

In their opinion, he is a servant with no special characteristics except to make people laugh.

However, never underestimate the power of funny characters!

At this time, people have not realized what will happen, and it will be a very destructive scene.

Leopard Man: "Don't worry about that, meow! If you ask why, it's because if I kill a living sacrifice, I will be called old-fashioned!"

The soldiers who unfortunately failed in the test that challenged the strongest human beings were all escorted to Eridu to do forced labor!

Because even if we eat, the specifications between us are different, right?

Except for the heart of a brave man, as a gourmet, I refuse to enjoy it, nya! "

Matthew: "This...this laughter is...!"

Then the Leopard Man appeared again. After some funny dialogue, this time the Leopard Man told Mashu and the others that he was the goddess who protected the forest.

Then she finally said some useful information.

"If you take (these people) away, not only will my efforts so far be in vain, but I will also be made to cry by Kukul."

‘Kukul? ’ Merlin muttered softly, as if he had discovered something.

In the written version of the epic, there is also such annotation: [The full name is Kukulkan, which is the Mayan version of Quetzalcoatl.

It was a god widely believed in Mesoamerican civilizations and was generally depicted as a feathered snake.

It rules the morning star, invented books, legislation, and brought corn to mankind. It also represents death and rebirth, and is also the patron saint of priests.

It comes with the rainy season, and the rainy season coincides with the time when the Mayans plant corn, so she has become the most revered god by the Mayan farmers. In the eyes of the Mayans, Quetzalcoatl and the Dog God have the same high status. 】

‘Mayans? !

Another race of people I have never heard of, a new mythological system! 'Hermitus.

At the same time——

Seeing the prophet Merlin making a move because of the word 'Kukul', the little princess and the others subconsciously frowned! Convinced——

Oh...there's a problem! Per capita prophet is now online!

Anyway, if you follow the old sinister Merlin and force him away, you will definitely not suffer any loss (make any discoveries).

Not paying attention to the different expressions of the Chaldean group, the Leopard Man continued: "That's right.

This is our world. The land of the spiral snake. Human beings who cannot discern the definition of God, leave quickly.

As long as we have the protection of the forest, our sun is invincible——"

At this point, the spear (? It's probably a gun) in the Leopard Man's hand has begun to glow with golden lightning, like the brilliance of the sun.

Human beings who cannot discern the definition of God...? And what is the Land of Snakes——? !

Just when people were immersed in studying the profound meaning of these words and confused.

The Leopard Man suddenly shouted: "To put it in simple words, 'At least bring some greeting gifts, idiot!'"

‘Meet...meeting ceremony? ! ’ Everyone’s head was covered with black lines.

Is that what it meant?

They would think carefully about this. Didn’t they look like fools just now? !

certainly--

Some believed the Leopard Man’s explanation, and some didn’t…

For example, Hermitus

From the beginning, the God of Alchemy never regarded this leopard man as a real funny character.

Protect the humans in the forest, seek living sacrifices, and prevent outside monsters from entering...

None of this is easy.

and--

This guy just called himself a ‘god’! God's... compatriot?

Hermitos had a hunch that the Kukul mentioned by the leopard man before might have something to do with the Land of Snakes.

Perhaps the original meaning was the territory of Quetzalcoatl.

Just when everyone had different thoughts and was lost in thought, the Leopard Man had already started fighting Anna and Matthew.

Almost overwhelmingly powerful.

The terrifying power can easily repel the two mounted servants, and the spear glowing with golden thunder in his hand can penetrate the earth like tofu.

Matthew and Anna got into a bitter fight.

It looks like he will be defeated if he continues.

It was like a playful scene between the two of them.

Merlin: "——There is no other way, retreat!

Fujimaru Ritsuka, a person cannot be judged by his appearance, he can be considered a god!
