Chapter 211 The Ancient King Who Dies From Overwork
Chapter 211 The Ancient King Who Dies From Overwork
"Yes, Your Majesty, the results of the special investigation you asked me to investigate have come to fruition."
Merlin stepped forward to report.
"Oh! Then report it quickly!"
Gilgamesh was immediately overjoyed and said quickly.
Seeing how fluently Gilgamesh and Merlin were answering questions, a girl with orange-red hair on the side couldn't help but raise her hand, somewhat puzzled.
"That............is a matter of special investigation. Didn't the king send us to Ur to investigate matters related to Quetzalcoatl?"
Gudazi looked blank.
Why couldn't she understand what these two people were talking about at all?
"Ritsuka, it's been so long, do you still have any expectations for this guy Merlin?"
"This guy is a complete liar. He may have some bad intentions in mind. This man cannot be trusted!"
A slightly angry man's voice came from above the main hall. He obviously knew the nature of Merlin quite well.
It can even be said that he was deeply affected by it.
"Fufu~"
Fufu, who was standing on Mashu's shoulder, nodded in agreement.
You're right, Merlin is a big liar!
However, facing the accusation of a man and a beast, Yan didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Instead, he still looked smiling, making people want to punch him just looking at him.
"Ara, it seems that Chaldean classmate Roman, you seem to have a big misunderstanding of me!"
"Although I am indeed hiding something from you, I don't have any bad intentions. How about I just trust Brother Merlin for once?"
"Haha! Do you think your name "Seven Zero Zero" still has any credibility now?"
Roman snorted coldly, completely unfazed by Merlin's performance.
He is familiar with this guy.
This nightmare is good at deceiving people with this harmless appearance!
"Okay! Those two over there, if you are flirting, please wait until you go to a private place before continuing. This is the King's Amyrlin Seat! Such topics are not allowed to be discussed!"
On the throne, Gilgamesh spoke up and stopped the noisy two people.
In an instant, Merlin and Roman, who had been quarreling at first, became angry with the same enemy, and they both shouted at Gilgamesh.
"It's not flirting!"
After they finished speaking, the two of them finally came to their senses and continued to fight each other.
After a long while, the farce finally ended with Merlin's victory.
Antarctica, Chaldea.
"Damn it! That guy Merlin! He actually threatened me with Melly's affairs!!!"
Looking at the annoying smiling face on the screen, Roman muttered dissatisfiedly.
That is to say, he considered concealing his identity, otherwise he would want to go over and punch that guy now!
Completely unaware that he had escaped unknowingly, Merlin had the joy of a winner on his face.
He straightened his clothes and then continued to speak to Gilgamesh on the throne.
"Your Majesty, regarding the special situation that occurred some time ago, based on the recent investigation, I think the suspicion of Ergon can be basically ruled out.
"As for Quetzalcoatl, I also paid attention when I was in Ur, and I didn't find any similar aura..."
Merlin paused, glanced at Quetzal at the side, and continued.
"Wait! When we were in Ur, Mr. Merlin, didn't you always act with us?!"
The innocent baby Mashu raised his hand to express doubt.
Merlin smiled and showed off.
"Ahaha... After all, I am a magician of flowers. I can do some blinding tricks, sneak away, and sprinkle water~"
"In other words, when we were working hard to fight Quetzal, Merlin, instead of helping, you actually sneaked away, right?!"
On the side, Fujimaru Ritsuka rubbed his chin, thought for a long time, and finally tapped his hands and came to a conclusion.
She immediately looked at Merlin with murderous intent.
There is no way, if anyone finds out that he is working hard and dangerously in front, but someone runs away on his side, he will be angry.
Chaos Evil clenched his fist and looked at Merlin's brain, a little eager to try.
"..."
Merlin immediately felt that the crisis of death was coming, which made him a little hairy, and he quickly put the blame away.
"You can't blame me! The king specially arranged for me to investigate!"
"Well, it is indeed the one I specifically asked Merlin to pay attention to...isn't it Golsu? He finally brought ten pieces of good news."
Gilgamesh explained for Merlin, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Among the Three Goddess Alliance, the one who truly harbors endless malice towards human beings is probably the Warcraft Goddess Gorgon.
If the great being that his clairvoyance accidentally glimpsed at that time was really on the side of Gorgon, then he wouldn't have to continue struggling and just wait for others to deal with him.
This is not the worst news, which is great.
After relaxing a little, the fatigue accumulated from continuous work came rushing in, making Gilgamesh's eyes feel dark.
He couldn't help but lean on the throne to rest.
"I didn't expect you to actually do something serious!?"
Roman's voice sounded very surprised, and he continued to ask.
"Then what did you find out about it?"
"Unfortunately, not really."
Merlin spread his hands, and the expression on his face looked quite frivolous.
Everyone was instantly stunned, and Roman almost fell down on the console and said angrily.
"Didn't you do nothing? Merlin, you! As expected, you still refuse to change your mind! I was such an idiot for changing my opinion of you just now!"
"You can't blame me for this. After all, it is an existence that even King Gilgamesh's clairvoyance cannot observe. It's already amazing that I can find this place, right?"
"What?! Even Gilgamesh's clairvoyance can't detect it?!"
Roman was shocked.
Although this guy Merlin is usually aloof, at critical moments, well... he doesn't seem to be very reliable.
Roman covered his face, he was a little blind. If you think about it this way, this guy is simply full of shortcomings!
However, even though this man never tells the truth and likes to fool people, Gilgamesh is right in front of him, and no matter what Merlin does, there is no way that he will be exposed in one sentence!
In other words, what he said is probably true!
What a terrifying concept is it to exist that cannot even be observed by clairvoyants?
It is precisely because he once had clairvoyance that Roman can understand the horror involved.
You know, his clairvoyance could foresee the birth of the beast and the burning of human nature.
Is it possible that the existence that Gilgamesh saw was more terrifying than the incineration of human reason?!
"Sadly, yes."
Merlin nodded, a rare serious expression on his frivolous face.
"Although I don't want to accept it, based on what the king saw at the time, if that great being had the intention, the entire world would instantly fall into nothingness!"
"It's not the same burning of humanity as now, but complete emptiness! There's not even a chance of salvation!"
When he first heard the news, his reaction was the same as everyone present, feeling incredible.
I even thought that Gilgamesh's clairvoyance had become presbyopic as he got older.
But unfortunately, Gilgamesh was in his prime, and his eyesight was among the best, and his clairvoyance was no worse than his.
When Quezal heard this, his eyes narrowed and his heart moved.
Nothingness?
Immediately, Merlin changed the subject.
"Fortunately, I haven't found any trace of that existence yet, and the other party doesn't seem to be on the side of the Goddess of Warcraft. It's a blessing among misfortunes.
"This... can be considered good news?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyelids jumped. She felt that the nightmare's definition of the word "good news" was different from that of humans!
"Ma Xiu? Why don't we open up? Go directly to the final singularity point and fuck Goetia!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka turned to look at Mashu.
She was a little timid.
Didn't you hear what Merlin said?
That unknown existence is more terrifying than the human incinerator and the beast, so they might as well just go around and kill Goetia directly!
"Unfortunately, senior, according to calculations, there is no way to go to the final singularity without clearing all the singularities."
However, Mashu's gentle tone shattered Fujimaru Ritsuka's last hope.
She could only cry and look sad.
"Okay, okay, be more open-minded."
"Look, there is a tall person holding up the sky when it falls, and the king hasn't said a word yet. What are you afraid of?"
Merlin stepped forward again, patted several people on the shoulders, and pointed to the throne with a smile…………
Suddenly, several people's eyes lit up.
"Yes! King Gilgamesh is so calm, maybe he already has some solution!"
Everyone was excited. Gilgamesh had taken so many countermeasures and even sent Merlin to investigate. Maybe he had already thought of countermeasures for this situation?
So they looked at the throne expectantly.
Just in time to see Gilgamesh fall down.
"thump---!"
Everyone: "???"
"Eh?!!!"
Screams of exclamation echoed between the thrones.
The throne room instantly became a mess.
Siduri originally thought that Gilgamesh just fell asleep because he was too tired, but when the examination came out, the result was beyond everyone's expectation.
Gilgamesh is actually dead!
As for the cause of death found out...
"Death from overwork? How is that possible?!!"
In the main hall, everyone looked surprised and could not accept this absurd result.
Even Roman, who was far away in Chaldea, was like this, he said.
"You're right! No matter what, death from overwork is ridiculous!"
"Although there is such a thing as death from overwork, I still have a sense of crisis...
In terms of workload and working hours, he is no less than Gilgamesh.
Ever since he became a human and encountered the Incineration of Humanity, Roman has been absorbing all the knowledge he needs in a human body. After joining Chaldea, he has been working almost day and night.
He didn't even die from overwork, how could Gilgamesh die from overwork?
"And if you die like this, neither I nor Gilgamesh will have died countless times before!"
"..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka deeply agrees.
She is still doubting how the doctor, with his physical fitness, could work like that without dying suddenly.
Merlin also realized that he had lost his composure just now because he was too excited.
"However, if it is not death from overwork, then why? King Gilgamesh has indeed lost all signs of life.'
Matthew expressed confusion.
If it wasn't death from overwork, what was the cause of Gilgamesh's sudden death?
"If this is the case......"
Merlin fell into deep thought. Soon, as if he thought of something, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Siduli who was crying silently at the side.
"Lord Siduli, during the 0.6 period when we were away, was there any special situation in Uruk Royal City? Like someone died mysteriously?"
But Siduli's answer was beyond Merlin's expectation.
"No, because of your help, two gods have switched sides and come to our camp. Everything is peaceful in the capital. Many people think that the moment of victory is coming soon and even eat two more bowls of rice."
"Ah this..."
Merlin was completely confused now. Could it be that he had guessed wrong?
Quetzal guessed Merlin's thoughts and suddenly laughed.
"Merlin, you are trying to say that maybe the goddess Ereshkigal is behind this, right?"
"Yes.
Merlin nodded.
Two goddesses have appeared in the Three Goddess Alliance so far. He originally thought that Gilgamesh's sudden death might be the work of the last Ereshkigal, so he asked if anyone in the city had died in the same accident.
But the result was somewhat beyond his expectation, making him suspect that he had guessed wrong.
Quetzal smiled.
"Actually, I have the same guess. Ereshkigal may have done this.
"Wait, wait, wait! What did you say? Ereshkigal?!!"
Judging from the back and forth between the two of them, it seemed that Ereshkigal had been blamed for this incident, and Ishtar finally couldn't bear it any longer.
Ereshkigal?
That guy has also arrived at this singularity?!
