"Okay, calm down, have you never flown before?" Ananu asked this question with a puzzled look on his face.
Adkart wanted to curse.
You have flown, you are awesome, your whole family has flown. (Ananu: Indeed)
How could a group of us be taken to the sky just because of a disagreement?
"Get used to it a little bit, this will also be part of your training in the future." Ananu flew in front, and the voice reached the ears of others, and those who heard it suddenly showed expressions of despair.
"——This is fucking training!?" The sturdy young man who had just shown a desperate expression was already yelling in fear.
"There will be more difficult times." Ananu comforted him.
"Okay, don't talk about this. I brought you here to show you something. Look over there."
Ananu pointed in a direction, and everyone who could still maintain basic sanity subconsciously looked in the direction Ananu pointed.
In the distant wilderness, several Uridim were hunting a group of antelopes. Their endless madness made them unable to help but want to completely kill the group of goats.
There were a few more golden ripples around Ananu, and more fragments of the Key to the Sky emerged from them, stabbing towards the ground, hitting the Uridim with incomparable accuracy.
Even if the Key of Heaven does not target divinity, it is still a top-notch god-made weapon, and the lethality caused by it is naturally not something that these Uridim can withstand.
The Uridim died, and the antelopes were frightened and fled quickly.
After the antelopes left, Ananu took twenty people pre-selected by the army and landed on the ground next to the bodies of the Uridim.
"Adkart, would there be so many Uridim around Uruk?" Ananu looked at Adkart, the only one among the crowd who could barely maintain his composure.
"...No, it won't..."
Adkart tried hard to think about what Ananu said, but his messy hair and messy mood made him temporarily unable to think about anything.
"Humbaba left. He was fooled by the gods and killed by his incompetent friends." Ananu sighed, picked up the body of an Uridim, and shook his head slightly, "But Humbaba brought
The impact...will not be eliminated.”
"There will be more monsters around Uruk, and even in the entire Mesopotamia region." He threw Uridim in the direction of Adkart, "Humbaba came from the forest of Enlil.
The ancient human world scared these monsters out, and they will not go back."
"Of course I, Enkidu, and Gil can kill these monsters easily, but we are not always in Uruk, and there are many things in the future that are unpredictable. Maybe one day I and I will be able to kill them easily.
Enkidu will also leave Uruk for unavoidable reasons."
"Gil is the king of Uruk. Is it possible that Gil has to deal with every monster that harms Uruk?"
Adkart looked at Uridim thrown in front of him and fell into thinking.
What Ananu said does make sense.
The other people also calmed down and looked at each other.
The bloody smell of the Uridim lying on the ground was so strong that it was impossible to ignore it.
"Lord Ananu, we probably understand what the king and you mean, but we still have some questions to ask." A relatively calm young man looked at Ananu and said, "Of course we can do it for our own city-state.
Come forward, but how do we solve our survival problems?”
"Yes, we will have military exploits when we go to the battlefield, and we can exchange our military exploits for food and clothes." The sturdy young man also discovered the problem, "We can only get monster meat when we kill monsters."
I have to say that this is an extremely real problem.
Fighting against monsters is far more dangerous than fighting against humans, and the probability of sacrifice is naturally greater.
This is a profession that requires huge investment but may result in surprisingly little income.
"I've talked about this with Gil." Ananu was naturally not unprepared, "As the defenders of the city-state, you will be directly supported by the palace, along with your families."
"And if you perform particularly well in the battle, Gil will probably give you other rewards, but this is Gil's business."
"not to mention......"
A sincere and kind smile appeared on Ananu's face.
"How could I let you die in the battle with the monsters so easily?"
Looking at that beautiful smile, all twenty people felt cold all over, with an indescribable... strange feeling.
"As a proposer of the profession of a soldier, I will be your instructor." Ananu opened his eyes, his yellow eyes reflecting the light of the setting sun, and said with a smile, "The potential of human beings is huge, this is what the gods have to offer."
With my preference, it is not difficult to defeat Warcraft after training."
"So...what's your answer?"
They are directly supported by the palace, and they will receive special rewards if they achieve relatively big victories. And although it is not clear yet how Ananu will train them, since it is training, they will get powerful power in the future.
Power, wealth, fame, and the safety of your family.
It has to be said that everyone except Adkart felt excited.
"Ah, you can't go back on your word." Ananu said, adding, "After all, this is an attempt by Jill and I, so it's relatively prudent."
"Then what will happen if I want to withdraw now?" A man who looked a little embarrassed and looked to be in his thirties raised his hand hesitantly, "I still have family members who need to take care of me, so although I really hope that I can
Joined, but as expected..."
"Oh, okay, I understand." Ananu didn't care, just nodded, and then looked at the others, "Is there anyone else who wants to quit?"
He asked not "who wants to join" but "who wants to quit".
If you don't answer within a period of time, you will be in trouble.
After a short period of convulsions, three people finally chose to leave here and return to their own lives, while the remaining seventeen people all chose to join this so-called "army" and became a "
Professional Soldier".
Although the current scale is still pitifully small, it does not mean that new blood will not be injected into it in the future.
Moreover, this "army" of seventeen people was not established for war. It was originally planned by Ananu and King Gilgamesh to protect the city-state and the people.
This is...the first "army" composed of "professional soldiers".
