279, Battle of Zeus and Marduk
279, The Battle between Zeus and Marduk
Sishui asked Mu Yun back, "What about you? You are also an angel in the kingdom of heaven now. Do you also need to refine such a pair of wings?"
Mu Yun smiled and didn't answer. With a bang, a pair of white wings spread out behind her. The goddess had known that today would be the one who had already refined the angel's wings. Then she turned her head and asked Amon with a smile: "Am I beautiful like this?"
Amon smiled and said, "Of course it's beautiful. Just like the beauty of an angel!... King of Scorpion, go back to the Syrian desert. Gabriel, seagull, you guard the kingdom of heaven... I have something to say with Mu Yun, and I, and then go to the world."
After saying that, Amon disappeared before the angels and appeared with Goddess Mu Yun in her heavenly palace, which looked very much like the rose garden that Mu Yun built on the Assyrian plateau on the earth.
Mu Yun looked at the colorful flowers and plants on the plateau and asked quietly: "You have created such a heavenly kingdom. Everything that the angels created and built in the heavenly kingdom is your soul's knowledge. This is a state that ordinary gods cannot imagine. Why do you want to travel far away from the world? What questions do you want to pursue and what answers do you want to prove?"
Amon did not answer directly, but said with a smile: "As far as I know, Zeus, the Lord of Olympus, has achieved no less than me, and the same is true for Marduk. Although our vows are different and the direction of verification is different, they are all beyond the Creator God after all.
I had been waiting for Darius in a tavern on the side of the road, but what I had been waiting for was the incarnation of Marduk's fruit. When I talked to Marduk, another person appeared next to me, and Zeus was the tenth. Their achievements were no less than me at this time. What were they still pursuing in the world? I knew the achievements that Marduk wanted to confirm, and could understand the world he was going to create. So what about Zeus?"
The communication between gods is not only language, but also information in their voices. Amon has imprinted the scene of him encountering Malduk and the middle-aged man in a roadside tavern into Mu Yun's soul. Mu Yun pouted slightly and said, "Do you want to learn from Zeus? People all said they are going to pick up girls, are you going to pick up girls too?"
Mu Yun was obviously a little angry, Amon smiled but didn't say anything, Mu Yun said again: "Don't think I don't know what you did in Osiris's underworld, just to help your cat vent your anger. Let Osiris kill himself on the spot, have you had a great time?"
Amon still smiled but did not answer. In the eyes of the gods, the cause and effect of this matter was naturally clear. Mu Yun said this just to squeeze Amon, so Amon smiled and looked very honest. At this moment, Mu Yun smiled again, and her smile became very charming. She looked up and glanced at Amon: "So you know how to make me happy too?"
What happened? Just as Amon was smiling and silent, the high priests of the main temples of Eju received an oracle - building statues of Mu Yun in the temples of the city-states across the country and offering sacrifices to her.
Amon did not ask the city-states of Eju to replace the original statue of An-La and re-carve his statue, because the statue did not need to be rebuilt, and now Amon is An-La. However, after Tutankhamun ascended the throne, many new buildings were completed in various places, both among the people and the officials. According to tradition, important buildings were painted and sculpted, and people still had to build new statues for Amon.
In the major temples, the statue of Archangel Sate has collapsed. Which angel should be placed in its original position? You can't let the solemn altar be empty, right? People are also praying to Amon for instructions from the oracle. After Amon merged the Nine League Kingdoms and Anunaqi Kingdoms, the original Nine League Gods and Anunaqi Gods became angels in the Kingdom of Heaven. The first oracle he descended was to build the statue of Mu Yun.
In fact, even if Amon did not surrender the oracle, Aju Prime Minister Rod Dick planned to do this, because Amon and Muyun were worshipped in the temple in Salem.
Amon originally had only one temple on earth. It was built by Link and the savages in Salem City. Perhaps because he had no experience or had no prejudice, it was very different from the styles of temples in various parts of the Tianshu Continent. Amon on the altar actually stood there with half hugging Mu Yun. Although the sculptures were extremely vivid, they seemed not solemn enough.
Since Amon's existing temple is such a form, Rhode Dick will also refer to it. However, its image form will naturally not be as frivolous as the Temple of the Divine Salem. Mu Yun stood on the altar and seemed dignified and majestic, right next to Amon, and Seth's original position.
Because of this oracle of Amon, Mu Yun was called the wife of the god Amon in the later myths and legends of Aju. The word-of-mouth of folk transmission and copying of classics throughout the ages was accompanied by the change of language. Later, Mu Yun was called Mu Te, which happened many years later.
Amon didn't speak but lowered such an oracle, so Mu Yun laughed at that time, and the smile disappeared like a cloud in the sky.
In fact, Amon himself did not care whether his statue would be placed on the altar, because his understanding and confirmation of the realm of the source of divine power has exceeded the concept of a certain kingdom or a certain divine system. As long as the world accepts his guidance and firmly believes, the world will be the realm of his source of divine power.
But when he was the God of Amon, he was still the Lord God believed in by the Aju people, and he did not reject this way of sacrifice in the kingdom. It was just a choice for the world to believe in him. As for Angel Muyun, he naturally prefers to absorb power from the divine realm in this way, because she was born from the "traditional" of the Anunaqi divine system.
Mu Yun looked at Among and smiled, but suddenly frowned slightly, and said with concern: "During the time when you merged with the Kingdom of God, you have no time to pay attention to human affairs, and your prophecy back then has been fulfilled. Darius ascended the throne of Poz and continued to expand in the Cyrus era. Eju is still a vassal state of Poz. If the situation continues to develop like this, your main god in Eju will be lost sooner or later, and the realm of the source of divine power will gradually be lost."
Amon asked with a smile, "Who will annex it?"
Mu Yun pondered: "Either Zeus or Malduck, Darius's army has entered the United Kingdom of Heaton."
Amon asked again, "So what can that be? I have said long ago that I have no intention to become such a god; the realm of my divine power source does not have to be such a divine power source. The divine realm of Anunaqi has been annexed by Marduk, but what about the kingdom of Anunaqi and the gods?"
Mu Yun also smiled: "It seems that there is no loss, because the Anunaqi divine system no longer exists, and the gods have become angels in the kingdom of heaven." Then he reached out and patted Amon on the chest and said: "Malduke has expanded his territory in the world, defeating the kingdoms owned by Anunaqi and the Nine-Lian divine system. But you have proved in the eternity of immortality and integrated Anunaqi and the Nine-Lian divine country.
You are all victors. However, the disputes on earth are drastically changing, the rise and fall of kingdoms have happened many times in the past thousand years, but in the eternity of immortality, there is no such battle of meaning. The world that gods can open up is infinitely vast, it depends on how vast his achievements and magic power are."
Mu Yun's words are also annotation of the word "transcendence". The concept of time and space in eternity that is not born or destroyed is different from the human world. The time and space that may be opened up are infinite. How big can the world created by the gods symbolize the view of the gods' own realm, knowledge and magic power, and there is no conflict and struggle like the human world.
The expansion of the Pots Empire was a human achievement, which allowed Marduk to enjoy a wider field of divine power, which naturally had great benefits for the gods. Amon deeply understood this when he became the main god of the Nine-Link God. But from another perspective, this kind of struggle was not concerned in the world after transcendence. Amon created the kingdom of heaven and integrated Anunaqi and the kingdom of nine-Link Gods. The achievements obtained by Gods were no less than those obtained by Marduk on earth.
Amon patted Mu Yun's back and said, "Since you understand this truth, why did you still feel that way just now?"
Mu Yun replied, "It's because of this principle. Look at how beautiful this heaven is. You have exceeded the end of the desires on earth. Why do you have to go to the earth in person and get involved in that unknowable dispute?"
Amon smiled: "Because I still have a vow that has not been proved, why are Anu and An La leaving again, why are Marduk and Zeus appearing in the world again? The answer is similar."
Mu Yun pointed to a void and said, "Is that Zeus you met? He is now a king and is fighting Malduck on the battlefield."
Amon also saw a fierce war somewhere on earth. Darius, the Great Pots, led his invincible team of ten thousand people, attacking a pass. The coach who defended the pass was the middle-aged man Amon had met in the tavern. His name was not Zeus, but Leoni.
...
The United Kingdom of Heaton is not a unified country concept, but is closer to the concept of a country that believes in the same god-type god. Its structure is looser than the original Barron Kingdom, and there are dozens of kingdoms of all sizes.
The so-called king has a practical status equivalent to the lord of a city-state, but he enjoys power similar to a king in this city-state. Some kingdoms are even equivalent to ordinary towns, and the rulers of territories as large as villages and towns also call themselves kings.
Many kings have no lineage, and have mastered military powers and nobles or generals ascended the throne in history, and the throne has changed many times. Such rulers are also called tyrants in the sages. There is currently no unified monarch in the entire Heaton Kingdom, but they adopt a form similar to the city-state parliament to negotiate important affairs in the United Kingdom to form actual tyrant co-governance. However, this form of co-governance is very loose and internal conflicts often break out.
Among these big and small kingdoms, there is a kingdom with very strong military power called Kibada, and Leoni is the current King of Kibada.
The Kibada Kingdom implemented a very brutal militarist policy. Kibada citizens were born for fighting. Babies who were weak or not strong enough were even discarded when they were born. They had to undergo harsh military training since childhood. They had to become formal legion soldiers at the age of twenty, stayed in the legion until they were thirty before they got married. After marriage, they had to participate in military training every day and could not be discharged from the army until they were 60 years old. However, most soldiers did not have the chance to live to the age of sixty.
On the Tianshu Continent, formal legion warriors are at least a first-level warriors who awaken their bloodline power. In other words, except for a few magicians, adult male citizens of Kibada are all warriors who practice physical skills. What if someone fails to become a warrior? Then he was eliminated before he was twenty years old. The so-called elimination means he died in cruel selection or cruel training.
The Kibada men did not do anything for childbirth. All Kibadas believed that they had the noblest bloodline. They had only one profession, which was to fight and live by conquering the enslaved people. Such a system was even more severe than the national policy implemented by Emperor Sinach, but they once formed a strong military strength and conquered and ruled a large area of surrounding territory and tribes with a small population.
It seemed that Amon merged Anunaqi and the Nine Kingdoms of Gods in the Kingdom of Heaven, but more than ten years had passed on the earth. Darius ascended the throne of God to calm the civil strife, Assyrian and Baron destroyed the kingdoms one after another. He followed Cyrus' expedition route that year, crossed the cape from Hathi, destroyed Tuyachi and established a new province, and clinched the United Kingdom of Heton from sea and land. Darius also sent envoys to the city-states of Heton to demand their surrender, and many small kingdoms were ready to surrender.
However, the most powerful and richest Yaren City-state Kingdom in the entire United Kingdom called on the city-states to unite to fight the Pots invasion. Many city-states in the United Kingdom of Hets were distributed along the coastline and larger islands, and navigation and commerce were their economic pillars. Therefore, the Yaren Kingdom organized a powerful navy and defeated Pots in the naval battle.
Potz incorporated Hathi's navy and warships, and requisitioned the soldiers of the former Barron Navy. He did not achieve the expected results when attacking from the sea. So Darius launched a large army from land and personally led a team of ten thousand people.
At this time, all the kingdoms of Heaton hoped that the Kibada warriors could fight, and they were Heaton's most powerful land warfare force. In the previous naval battles, the Kibadas did not participate in the war. The reason why Kibadas did not participate in the war was very simple. They did not engage in production, nor did they engage in trade and trade. They only rely on conquest and enslave the conquered people to live. Although they had strong military power, they did not care much about other things.
The Kibada nobles opposed the expedition. In their opinion, as long as the Pots army did not attack the Kibada city-state, they did not need to pay attention. Although they killed the messengers sent by Darius, they were not interested in protecting other city-states in the United Kingdom of Heaton. The Kibada soldiers have always fought for their own conquest and did not intend to join the coalition forces of the United Kingdom of Heaton.
Many Kibada nobles believed that if the Potz army attacked the United Kingdom of Heaton by land, it would be far from Kibada City, and the Potz people could not conquer the city-state of Kibada. The loss of strength of the city-states of Heaton was a good opportunity for Kibada to carry out a new round of conquest and expansion. The decision was made by the Council of the Elders of the Kibada nobles and elders, and rejected the proposal to send a large army to fight. This was their usual idea.
But now Kibada has produced a king, Leoni, whose ideas are obviously different. Without the support of the noble group in the kingdom, he cannot mobilize a large army, but the king has the right to lead the personal guards when he goes on a trip. So Leoni claimed that he was guided by the oracle and led 300 personal guards to the front line.
Heaton's army was stationed in a place called Hot Spring Pass, which was a dangerous pass. In addition to Lenho and his 300 guards, the coalition forces of various city-states in Heaton's United Kingdom had a total of more than 7,000. Leoni led the most elite 300 guards to guard the Hot Spring Pass, and the others fought together on the flanks to cover the pass.
In the legend of the Heatons in later generations, Darius launched an attack of five million troops. This was obviously impossible. The combined forces of all countries in the Tianshu Continent could not support such a large army, let alone the organization and transportation of military logistics.
Some people also know that this so-called history is boundless nonsense, and they also change the legendary figures to an army of 500,000 or 200,000. The main force led by Darius is the 10,000 team, and the reserve army in the new province, facing 7,000 Heaton coalition soldiers.
As the main cross-border expedition of the 10,000 troops, Darius needed huge logistics supplies, military supplies and reserve troops. Darius also had more than 100,000 troops. Darius attacked from a distance, and the Heaton coalition occupied the natural advantage to wait for labor. The combat situation was very unfavorable to Pots. At the critical hot spring pass, the front battlefield could not accommodate large armies, so he could only launch a strong attack and charge. The Pots army was defeated by the Heaton coalition.
Darius also saw Leoni, who was defending the pass from afar on the battlefield, and the two showed a look that only each understood. Darius had seen him in a tavern on the roadside and knew what kind of opponent he had encountered this time. Since Malduk could cut down and become the Great Emperor of Pots in the world, Zeus could also come to the world to become King Kibada.
The Battle of Hot Spring Pass was not only a war between the Pots Empire and the United Kingdom of Heaton, but also a direct confrontation between the two kings of the Kingdom of God.
The Potz army was frustrated, and Malduk faced Zeus without wanting to retreat, so he mobilized the reserve army from the imperial province to attack the hot spring pass in turn. Although there were heavy casualties, the main purpose was to attract the attention of the Heaton coalition and consume the opponent's combat power, so that they could not withdraw their troops and take into account the weaknesses on the overall defense line.
Darius mobilized the most elite force in the 10,000 team in the dark, climbed over the cliff and bypassed the front pass, and launched a sneak attack in the rear of the Hot Spring Pass. The Heaton coalition was eventually defeated, and Leoni and his three hundred personal guards were all killed.
The Potz army paid a lot of money. After capturing the Hot Spring Pass, it rushed directly to Yaren City, the most important city-state in the United Kingdom of Heaton. Lenho's blockade in the Hot Spring Pass bought time for the city-states. When the Potz army arrived at Yaren City, all the people in the city-state had evacuated, leaving only an empty city with flames ignited.
Amon and Mu Yun looked around in the world in the kingdom of heaven, witnessed the battle at Hot Spring Pass, and recognized who Leoni was. When a fire broke out in Yalun City, Mu Yun frowned and said, "Did Malduk defeat Zeus again?"
