266, I'm here to pick up girls
This general who was so powerful in the continent was so young, looking only about twenty years old, and his skin exposed outside his clothes showed a bronze metallic luster. He wore armor without a helmet, with bright necklaces on his chest, and embroidered ribbons on his shoulders. He had a very majestic figure, with short hair and curly buns on his head, a high nose bridge and deep eye sockets, and his eyes were clear and deep, as if he had magical magic.
Surrounded by the guards, Darius passed a small town. This was a spontaneous town formed next to the official road, which was for passers-by and cargo merchants to rest. It was also a place for several nearby villages to trade goods and buy various goods. The Kish city-state was not destroyed by war in the area east of the Youdi River. The Sinach army did not arrive here, and Darius attacked the Kish city-state almost without a fight, so this area was almost completely damaged, no different from before the war.
There is a tavern next to the road. There is an open courtyard in front of the door. There is no courtyard wall facing the side of the official road. There are several tables and stools on the open space. There are a row of horse ties next to it, and stone troughs to provide drinking water and feed to horses. Such small towns do not have large inns, and such taverns can often be seen next to the official road, mainly for merchants to rest and drink horses.
This is the business road from the upper ferry of Youdi River to the hinterland of Barron. It was once very prosperous, but now in the years of war, there are much fewer visitors than before. Seeing the army passing by, only children in the town hid in the corner of the wall curiously, and then they were called back home and closed the door.
Even the tavern owner who was doing business hid in the room and looked out in the crack of the window, but two guests sat by the table in the yard, each occupying a table and drinking slowly there, as if he had not seen the murderous army passing by.
A gust of wind blew, and the well-trained guards under Darius suddenly smelled a strange smell of wine. It was the breath that could only be emitted by the best wine in the world. How could they smell it in this small town? Although there has been no war in Kish city-state, due to the impact of the surrounding wars, the local people's livelihood and economy are definitely not as good as before. The first thing that has been hit the most is various luxury goods.
Winemaking consumes food, and the supply of wine must be insufficient during the war, especially the extremely expensive and scarce wine, how could it appear in such a tavern?
The wine sold in this kind of roadside town tavern is now turbid and light, sour and astringent, which is the kind that people who drive on the mainland often drink. Although the guards were surprised, no one looked back. Even the horse's hooves were traversing, and they subconsciously raised their vigilance. - Even if the real elite soldiers did not notice the danger, even if there was a trace of abnormality in the surrounding environment, they would be wary.
At this moment, suddenly, at the command, the personal guards who were walking in the front of the team suddenly stopped. At the same time, they stopped their horses and made almost no loud noises. Then the order to stop the march was transmitted to the rear, like a surge pushing by, the entire army stopped, no one spoke or the sound of weapons and armor colliding, and there was a solemn atmosphere on the official road.
The guards separated the road, Darius dismounted and untied his sword and handed it to Suicong, and he stepped into the semi-open courtyard. Everyone in the town was frightened, not sure what the army wanted to do when they stopped here? Seeing the mighty general walking into the tavern, the boss hid behind the window and his legs were weak. He should have come out to greet the guests, but he stood there with his hand on the windowsill and couldn't move at all.
Darius walked to a table, pulled open the stool and sat down, "Good wine, I didn't expect that in such a place, I could drink such fine wine in the world!"
A young man wearing a gray-white linen robe sat opposite him, with a handsome face and a calm expression. The edges and corners of his facial features were invisible and determined. He smiled slightly and reached out to take out another cup out of thin air, lifted the wine pot on the table and poured a full glass of wine for Darius, and slowly pushed over and said, "The general's nose is very good. Are you dismounting for this glass of wine?"
Darius laughed: "Fine wine should be drunk for heroes. Now I have led a large army to sweep Tianshu to the border of Eju, but I heard the people calling for a general named Amon. I didn't expect to meet you here. I am really destined to be!"
Sitting opposite Darius was Amon, who raised his eyebrows slightly with his wine glass: "Darius, do you know me?"
Darius replied, "Your statue is standing in the city of Salem. I have been there, the master-level carving work is like you. As long as you meet, you can recognize you at a glance, why ask me like this? You were the General of Eju back then, and I am the General of Potz today. I believe you have also heard that Eju just expressed his surrender to Potz. Are you waiting for me when he appeared here?"
Amon drank himself with a glass of wine: "I am drinking, you came here by yourself."
Darius raised his glass and said, "I wish you, as a general on the battlefield, toast to your former legend!"
Darius knew who was sitting in front of him, but he was not afraid at all. His subordinates had strict military disciplines, and no one came without orders. The entire army was waiting quietly on the official road, and he used his magical technique to summon the sound when he spoke. Only he and Amon could hear the content of the conversation.
Amon raised his glass and drank it all: "I admire your courage a little. Even though I know who I am, I still dare to come over alone."
Darius smiled and said, "You should admire you. Even if you are the god Amon, there is an elite battle formation of the undead squad in front of you. If you are surrounded, you can't stand it!...Amon, you once attacked thousands of miles to capture King Lucill of Hati alive, and you also appeared in the hunting ground where Sinach was assassinated. Are you here to assassinate me today? In front of the military formation, it is not called assassination, but a decisive battle alone!"
Amon shook his head: "I'm not here to assassinate you, I'm just a little curious. I want to see with my own eyes what kind of person is defeating Gelie? I am a god. According to the agreement of the gods, I will not attack a mortal directly. If I really want to kill you, I will send an envoy to find you, and you must be careful at that time."
Darius' laughter suddenly became louder, trembling the air around him, and even the tabletop was trembling. He asked with a smile: "So have you seen clearly? Even if I defeated Gere, I defeated Anunaqi's divine system. Whether in the human world or in the kingdom of God, Anu defeated me."
This time it was Amon's turn to be surprised. When Darius laughed wildly, there was a familiar atmosphere. The general in front of him seemed familiar - Marduk! Amon put down his cup and shouted softly: "It's you, Darius?"
Darius replied meaningfully: "In the world, I am Darius now! You must be curious about how I did it? This is another realm I have sought to prove, which you can call the incarnation of fruit."
As he spoke, a message was imprinted in Amon's mind, explaining the identity of the general who was drinking, which was extremely mysterious. Sitting in front of Amon was both Marduk and General Poz, Darius, but Marduk, the god, was creating his kingdom of gods in the eternity of immortality, and did not come to the world to become Gere like Anu in the way of rebirth of souls.
When he came to the world, Darius was him, and when he stayed in the kingdom of God, everything Darius thought and experienced in the world was equivalent to his experience. This incarnation was a person, born in the aristocratic family of the Poz'ah Hermenid tribe, and was extremely talented since childhood. He made many extraordinary achievements at a young age and was appointed as a general by Cyrus.
So Darius would tell Amon that both Anu and Grey were defeated by him. This state is different from a simple clone. In fact, after Amon broke through the ninth level of achievement, he could separate another identity and act. After becoming a god, he could naturally change into various images to face the world, but they were all different from Darius's situation.
Everything Darius did in the world is the confirmation of Marduk. His experience is the insight of Marduk, and the power of cultivation will also become the increased power of Marduk. Regardless of whether Darius, a "man", can transcend eternal life, as long as he comes to the world, he confirms what Marduk wants to prove, even if it is perfect. When Marduk arrives in the world, he will be as Darius as Darius, and Darius will have the power of Marduk at this time.
Amon can't do this now, and Anu, the creation god of Anunaqi, and An Ra, the creation god of Nine-Lian, cannot do this, but Malduk has done it. Amon has been exploring a higher realm of existence, and Darius or Malduk in front of him gave him a good proof that it is worth experiencing carefully.
Amon couldn't help but be stunned and asked in a deep voice: "Why do you want to tell me this?"
Darius's smile seemed a little naive: "Like a child, wearing a new dress, or an adult, getting a good position, he can't help but show off to his neighbors. I am very lonely now, who else can understand how I feel at this moment? Only you, Amon. Thank you for making a fine wine here for waiting for me. It's so considerate!"
Amon continued to pour wine expressionlessly: "I have to thank you too, at least you gave me some inspiration."
Marduk's smile became a little cunning again: "If I say that, I will thank you even more. I heard that you have a title called Emperor Killer. Wherever you appear, the emperor on earth will be in trouble! I came to pick you up this time, but I met you outside Kish. If I follow the itinerary of Emperor Cyrus, he should have arrived in Kish this afternoon. Now it seems that I will not be able to arrive.
As a god like you, I will not attack a mortal directly, unless he challenges me. What's more, I have my promise and cannot hurt a monarch who believes in me. And I will kill Darius, and everything I do in the world will not exceed this identity, otherwise there is no way to prove it. If someone succeeds in assassinating Cyrus, maybe he is helping me and let me say thank you in private!"
Amon's face changed slightly, and he suddenly realized a situation that he had not expected in advance. Even if Semir and Faust really succeeded in assassinating Cyrus, they probably would not be able to save the Assyrian Empire. This assassination was based on the speculation that once Cyrus died, the Pots tribes would fall into civil strife and fight for power, and the newly established provinces would fall apart.
Now it seems that if Cyrus really died, it would be inevitable that the various Poz tribes would seize power in civil strife. But there is also a general with heavy troops. His majestic talent is no less than Cyrus, and he can take this opportunity to settle the situation and ascend to the throne. Amon has even seen that Darius would become a more dazzling Poz emperor in the world.
According to the plan formulated by Mingyue Ye, the assassination of Cyrus should be today. No matter whether he succeeds or not, the result is probably decided at this moment. Even if Amon wants to stop it, it will be too late. With Darius here, if Cyrus dies, the final result will be the same for the Assyrian Empire.
But Darius just sat in front of him and drank, using his magic to gather his voice and talked with Amon. At this moment, Amon could not get accurate information from afar, so he could only sit here and drink with him. He heard the General Potz talk in a show-off tone.
Amon raised his glass again and said, "Malduke, I want to congratulate you, another Pots Emperor on earth!"
Darius raised his glass with a smile and drank together: "You should call me Darius more precisely. As for the throne of Poz, it will probably take some time to get it. If Poz does not have civil strife, there will be no such opportunity. I cannot act in the world beyond Darius's identity, and it may take some trouble to solve the situation. Have you sent a god envoy to participate in the assassination of Cyrus? Don't worry, my god envoys will not participate. Whether they can escape depends entirely on their ability."
Amon's mood was already calm and he said lightly: "What are you happy with? Be prepared to rush back to Potz to quell the rebellion! No matter how good General Darius's methods are, it will take a few years."
Darius was still laughing: "Of course I am happy. Although I cannot welcome Emperor Cyrus, God Amon set up the most beautiful wine in the world to wait for me, the future Pots Great. As I said when I sat down - good wine should be drunk for heroes!"
At this moment, a very impatient voice suddenly sounded: "Why wine should be drunk for heroes? That's right, wine should be shared with beauties! The so-called heroes always drink strong or bitter wine. As gods, can you sit in this place with the best wine in the world? It's really boring! Entering the world, you have to drink the wine here in such a tavern, and this is the fun!"
The two gods were shocked at the same time and turned their heads to look at a corner of the courtyard. There was originally a person sitting there. Although Amon and Darius had noticed nothing abnormal, they didn't care about him. They were isolated from their voices when they spoke. Not to mention the soldiers on the official road, even other gods could not hear it.
But the man actually heard it, not only heard it, but also penetrated the isolated space and sent the sound to Amon and Darius' ears. Darius turned around and asked, "Who are you, why did you appear here?"
The man stood up and put down his wine glass. The sour and astringent wine sold in this tavern. He was a middle-aged man. He was ordinary and unattractive when he sat there just now. Now when he got up, he had a majesty atmosphere that was not revealed, even in front of Darius and Amon.
He smiled and waved his hand and said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you. You just wanted to sit beside me and talk about these things, just like saying it to me."
Amon stood up and saluted, "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man had wide shoulders and thick back, his long golden hair and long beard were combed neatly, and his blue eyes seemed to be bottomless. He smiled and said, "I came to pick up girls in the world, and happened to pass by! You can continue to talk, and I will continue to look for my beautiful wine and beauty. How beautiful the world is, how wonderful life is, two of you, why do you work so carelessly?"
As he spoke, he put the money on the table, walked away with his hands behind his back, and disappeared through the military formation on the official road. The soldiers in brightly coated and armored were still standing in a row, but no one saw him!
Darius looked at Amon, and Darius, who was showing off just now, seemed a little uninterested at this moment. He asked Amon, "Do you know this person?"
Amon shook his head: "I've never seen it before."
Darius said to himself again: "He can hear us and let us see that he has not revealed any flaws, but everyone around him cannot see him. Among the gods, I only think of An Ra and Annu, but it is impossible for them to be..."
Amon replied for him: "Zeus."
Darius slapped the table: "Yes, it should be him, Zeus, the lord of the Olympus god! What did he come here for?"
Amon shrugged: "He has said that he is here to pick up girls and happened to pass by here."
Darius: "How could that be so coincidental?"
Amon sighed: "It's really a coincidence. Today, the three most powerful gods in the Shu Continent actually sat in such a tavern and drank at the same time. I couldn't believe it, but it happened!"
Darius was actually the human incarnation of Malduk, which made Amon realize that Semir and Faust's assassination of Cyrus was just a futile adventure, but people always have to do something for their vows in the world. But in Malduk's view, doing so was equivalent to helping him indirectly, so when he picked up the wine opposite Amon, he looked like a child showing off his new clothes.
But Zeus suddenly appeared and left. At the same time, beyond their expectations, they were not sure what the Olympus master wanted to do? The best wine in the world could no longer taste good. The two powerful gods on the continent seemed to feel an unknown beyond their control.
At this moment, three shuttles roared in the sky far away, and the magician who controlled the shuttle was rushing wildly at the extreme speed without hesitating his magic power. The soldiers on the official road were still unaware of it, and Darius and Amon both noticed the movement. Darius nodded and said, "Congratulations, it seems that someone had successfully assassinated Cyrus."
Amon shook his head and said, "I should say congratulations, General Darius, the future Emperor Potz! Drink this glass of wine and say goodbye. If you have your world, I will also go find my kingdom of heaven, fulfill my vows, guidance and redemption."
