When Abel heard Gilgamesh's irresponsible and lazy voice, he took a deep breath and controlled his desire to punch the bastard in the face.
The priority of the government itself was not that important, but the trouble was that the implementation of the policy was likely to be strongly opposed by the Ishtar priests and even the priests of the Babylonian temple. These temple priests were the only ones in Sumer who dared to oppose the royal power.
Even Gilgamesh could not wantonly slaughter the priests, because that would be slapping the Babylonian god in the face. That was why the priests, led by Sidurie, could interfere with the implementation of the royal power to a certain extent.
However, since he had obtained full authority, Abel was confident that he could solve this problem.
Abel turned his back and left the palace, while Gilgamesh continued to play with the golden wine cup in his hand, his eyes glimmering.
At that moment, a guard walked in with a trembling hunter. Gilgamesh put down his wine glass and looked down coldly.
"King, this hunter said that he saw a strange monster in the Cedar Forest.”The soldier knelt on the ground and reported respectfully,
"Oh? What kind of wonderful monster?" Gilgamesh asked with interest.
"King, that is a monster with great power. It is covered in hair like Nishaba and dressed like Mother Su. It eats antelopes and partners with wild beasts.”
"Oh? Then what's his name?"
"He said his name is…Enkidu."
……
……
"You bastard!" Ishtar flew out of the barrier that had been removed.
One month. She had been tied up in that small garden for an entire month.
She had never felt so aggrieved before. She had been sleeping most of the time. She had only rushed out when she felt the power of the chains and the barrier disappear.
"Ahhhh, you big bastard!”Ishtar roared into the sky, venting the anger in his heart.
" Eh?!" Ishtar was a high god after all. He suddenly felt the chaos of the Originator, which could only be caused by an intense battle.
"That guy said that he was going to Uruk. It's been a month. I wonder if he's still there? Forget it, let's go to the temple first."
Ishtar took to the sky and looked back at the garden. After hesitating for a moment, he added a divine seal on the spot and flew directly to Uruk's temple.
Abel didn't think that there would be no resistance to reform. It was like a piece of cake.
If you want to pick up a part and add cream to it, it will hurt the part of the people who have already gained benefits. Therefore, they will resist, resist, and refuse the pain that the reform will bring to their interests.
For example, now
In front of the Great Temple of Ishtar, Abel was almost out of saliva, but he still could not convince the woman in front of him. The beautiful woman in a veil, Siduri, the high priest of Ishtar, was adamant against Abel entering the temple.
"Sir, I know that your status is noble, not inferior to the gods.
However, this is the temple of the god Ishtar. The goddess taught us that when a man and a woman mate, they can give birth to new life. She did not say much else.
We will never go against the teachings of the goddess.”Siduri said righteously.
Abel's matter had shocked the temples. After all, no one had ever defeated King Gilgamesh. The priests of the temples reported to the Sumerian gods, but the divine message they received was that he was the most respected guest of the gods, and the Uruks had to respect him as they respected the gods.
"Huh? I've seen Ishtar, that half-baked goddess. That was just an excuse to fool you. She might forget about it later.”
Abel recalled Ishtar's unreliable personality and tried to persuade Siduri. At the same time, Abel handed over the clay tablet in his hand.
"In any case, unless the Goddess gives a new order, this custom will not change.”Siduri only dared to take a glance at it before putting the clay tablet aside and shaking his head resolutely.
Abel let out a long sigh. He really hated talking to fanatics. They only had eyes for the gods.
"Then I'll go to the temple and ask for Ishtar's prophecy.”
Siduri tilted his head slightly and frowned at Abel.
"Sir Abel, the goddess 'temple forbids men from entering.”
"I'm sorry, it seems like I have no choice but to force my way in.”
With that, Abel's hand flickered, and a barrier of six realms opened up around him.
