Chapter 854: Gilgamesh's Illness

"It turned out to be like this..."

After hearing the story, Lin Qiye let out a long sigh.

He turned his head to look at the yard, and saw Gilgamesh standing silently under the shade of a tree, with mottled light spots shining on his gray robe. He looked up at the distant sky, wondering what he was thinking.

"Thank you." Lin Qiye turned around and smiled at Merlin.

Merlin waved his hand, "I'm just telling a story, the next step is up to the Dean."

Lin Qiye looked down at the fragment in his hand, and after hesitating for a moment, he walked straight towards Gilgamesh under the shade of the tree.

Knowing Gilgamesh's past, combined with his illness, Lin Qiye can basically infer that his heart disease is related to the destruction of the Uruk Kingdom. The next thing to do is to test Gilgamesh and see From which angle is it better to start treatment.

Gilgamesh, who was under the shade of the tree, noticed Lin Qiye's approach, narrowed his eyes slightly, and spoke again in a condescending gesture:

"If you want to find this king to confess your sins, it's already too late. Sooner or later, you will be crucified on the pillar of shame and exposed to the public for nine days."

"..." Lin Qiye was speechless for a moment, and then said: "I came here to show you something."

"Huh?" Gilgamesh frowned, "Bring it up and show it to me."

Lin Qiye stretched out his hand and handed the fragment in his palm to Gilgamesh, who just lowered his head and saw the fragment, his pupils contracted suddenly.

He stood there like a stone statue.

Just as Lin Qiye was about to say something, Gilgamesh raised his head suddenly, stared into Lin Qiye's eyes, and said word by word:

"You... broke the keystone?"

Lin Qiye was taken aback.

In an instant, a terrifying divine power erupted centered on Gilgamesh, sweeping across the entire mental hospital. The turbulent wind blew the gray robe, and an unprecedented killing intent gushed out.

Sun Wukong, who had just walked back to the ward, suddenly stopped in his tracks, frowning tightly.

He turned his head to look in the direction of the yard, and his eyes once again caught up with anger,

"court death?"

With a flash of his figure, he turned into an afterimage and flew towards Gilgamesh in the courtyard, stretching out his hand to his ear, and the violent divine power surged again.

Just then, a hand was placed on his shoulder.

Sun Wukong, who was moving at high speed, was startled, stopped abruptly, and looked back.

At some point, Merlin was already standing behind him calmly, smiling at him and saying, "Don't worry, he'll be fine."

...

courtyard.

Gilgamesh's aura was rising steadily. He held the fragment in one hand, trembling slightly, and held the other hand in the void, and the golden Wang Quan sword fell into his hand. Pointing at Lin Qiye, murderous intent overflows!

"The wedge is the symbol of Uruk. Anyone who breaks the wedge...will be killed without mercy!"

Amidst the tumbling divine power, Lin Qiye stood there calmly: "It wasn't me who broke it, it was the ancient war and the endless years."

Gilgamesh said solemnly, "Uruk will never be annihilated by ridiculous wars and years. It is the most powerful country in the world, and it is the country created by this king!"

When Lin Qiye heard these words, he closed his eyes helplessly.

He probably figured out Gilgamesh's illness... This tyrant who created the glory of Uruk with one hand, but foresaw its destruction and was powerless, buried his memory in the Into the depths of the heart, thus creating another memory, rooted in consciousness.

This point is very similar to Lin Qiye back then.

After the Cangnan catastrophe, Lin Qiye's soul was severely overdrawn, coupled with the heavy blow of losing his relatives and friends, he subconsciously escaped from reality, substituting himself into the false illusion created by [Mortal God Realm], sinking for a long time.

If it weren't for the sliver of strength left by Yuanshi Tianzun, if it weren't for the treatment in the Yangguan Mental Hospital in the fasting place, he doesn't know how long it would take him to get out of it.

Gilgamesh also created a memory, a false memory that Uruk has not yet died and still flourished in the world, and he himself did not die of old age, but obtained eternal life and continued to lead this magnificent and powerful country.

But to some extent, his illness was much worse than Lin Qiye's back then.

In Gilgamesh's eyes, even though it is obvious that this mental hospital no longer exists in Uruk, and even though the nurses walking in it are not like his people, he is still subconsciously modifying his cognition, and will Everything is forcibly turned back to the false memory track, and the status quo is forcibly maintained.

In his consciousness, this is still his Uruk, and the people living here should be his people as a matter of course.

He failed to seek eternal life, failed to save his city-state and its people, his sense of powerlessness and guilt crushed his lonely self-esteem, and he could only make up for the shortcomings in his heart in this false memory .

Lin Qiye opened his eyes, staring into Gilgamesh's furious eyes, with a hint of sympathy in his pupils.

"I'm sorry." Lin Qiye said slowly, "Your kingdom has been dead for a long time..."

"Nonsense!!" Gilgamesh roared, and the gray robe flashed in an instant. The golden long sword in his hand had already slashed at Lin Qiye's neck, but it was like slashing on a gold stone, and he couldn't save half of it. "Wu Luke...will not die!"

Lin Qiye's eyes flashed a glimmer of light, he suddenly raised his hand, grabbed the golden Wang Quan sword with his bare hand, and moved it away from his neck, at the same time the other hand grabbed the sword. Gilgamesh's collar, pulling him in front of her.

As soon as his thoughts moved, Gilgamesh's divine power fluctuations disappeared, and the terrifying aura raging in the hospital disappeared without a trace.

"Gilgamesh, what is the relationship between Uruk and you?" Lin Qiye pulled his collar and asked word by word.

Gilgamesh glared at Lin Qiye, and said as a matter of course: "This king is the king of Uruk!"

"You are the king of Uruk." Lin Qiye repeated, "When you were alive, you had the guts to sweep Uruk with you, the guts to challenge the two gods as a demigod, and the guts to pursue mortals. eternal life...

Now, look at yourself! "

Lin Qiye gripped Gilgamesh's collar tightly, and slammed him back half a step, "You are the oldest and most famous king in history! But now, don't you even have the courage to face history squarely?

Your country has turned into sand, your people have turned to dust, and your glory has been smashed by the kingdom of God!

Are you not a tyrant? Are you not the King of Heroes?

Now you have a new opportunity, you're back, but what are you doing?

A coward who hides in his own imagination and only dares to be proud of others...is he worthy of being king? "
