Chapter 171 Gilgamesh: I think I can still be saved. Li Lin: No, I don't think so.

"How could this be! His Majesty was perfectly fine just a few days ago, how could he suddenly be dead?!"

Of all those present, Siduri was the one who couldn't bear to see Gilgamesh die from overwork the most.

She lay on the withered corpse of Jin Shanshan, her once dignified lady-like demeanor gone, replaced by a face full of sorrow.

"Condolences."

Li Lin went up and patted the girl on the shoulder, comforting her.

"The reason we came to you is to talk to you about this."

"When we returned to submit our mission to go south, we saw him like this as soon as we entered the main hall."

"Sigh, I told him a long time ago to be careful of overworking himself to death, but he just wouldn't listen. Now look what happened."

Li Lin shrugged, indicating that it was impossible to persuade a damned ghost with kind words.

If Kim continues working at this intensity, death from overwork is almost inevitable.

"I still can't believe it, how could His Majesty...."

Siduri pressed her lips tightly together, her face almost overflowing with sorrow.

For her.

Aside from Li Lin, who taught her how to survive, Gilgamesh held the largest place in her heart.

Their relationship was one of mutual assistance between superior and subordinate, as well as very good friends.

It can be said that Siduri watched Gilgamesh grow up almost from the moment he was born.

She is an official, a friend, and a mother.

The three relationships were intertwined, which is why Siduri was so sad.

"Alas, when a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; this is a fact that no one can change."

"It's time to prepare for the King's passing."

In the end, Siduri accepted the truth.

She then summoned several soldiers, placed Gilgamesh's body in a coffin, and then walked out of the hall again.

...

Soon, news of King Gilgamesh's death from overwork spread like wildfire throughout the entire city of Uruk.

Upon learning this tragic news, all the garrison commanders returned to the city from the western defense line.

"Let's eat at the banquet! I want to sit at the children's table!"

As evening fell, watching the bustling crowd preparing for the banquet, Li Lin excitedly raised his hands.

Of course, Gudako was also happy with him.

The two of them, like children who had never grown up, looked left and right, expressing that they were extremely fortunate to be able to eat at the banquet of the oldest king.

We also hope that there will be more opportunities like this.

Everyone: "........."

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

Ignoring the two troublemakers, the banquet food was quickly prepared.

At the dining table, Li Lin and Gudako sat together, eating and drinking without a care in the world, completely unlike the gloomy faces of the others.

In fact, some people who knew Li Lin were not too surprised by his behavior.

After all, he was once the Grim Reaper.

For a deity who has seen through the true meaning of life and death, death is merely the beginning of another journey.

Therefore, it's normal that he remained so calm about Gilgamesh's peaceful death [not really].

However, it's one thing for Li Lin to act recklessly, but why did you, as the last Master of humanity, join in the chaos?!

At the dinner table, Mashu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed by her senior's behavior.

She instinctively nudged Gudako with her elbow and asked in confusion.

"Senior, I've been wanting to ask you this for a while now, what's making you so happy?"

"Isn't the death of King Gilgamesh a very sad thing?"

"Uh, no, I'm sad too."

Surprisingly, Gudako directly denied being happy and lied in front of everyone.

Even Mashu, who has the best temper, was a little angry about this.

She pouted and retorted angrily.

"But you were laughing the whole time, without stopping!"

"Everyone's clearly heartbroken... Waaah, I misjudged you, senpai. Hmph~"

Upon hearing this, Gudako was stunned for a moment, then suddenly clapped her hands in realization.

"So this is what you were talking about."

"This shouldn't be a big deal, right? After all, even Li Lin isn't worried, so why should I be?"

"What do you mean it's not a big deal... wait, senior, do you mean Li Lin isn't in a hurry, so you're not in a hurry either?"

So that's how it is. Now that they finally understood why their senior was so carefree, Mashu and the others at the table couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

"I need to make a statement about that."

Siduri, who was sitting opposite, couldn't stand it any longer and stood up to speak.

"My master was once the Grim Reaper, and he had long since understood the true meaning of life and death, so he was not sad, and everyone could understand him."

"Uh, I know." Gudako nodded, completely oblivious to Siduri's implied meaning.

She said.

"Since Li Lin is the Grim Reaper, why not just send him to the Underworld to retrieve the King's soul?"

“I know this will disrupt the order between life and death, but special times call for special measures. Right now, the undead are running around on the ground. It shouldn’t be a problem to temporarily bring the king’s soul back, right?”

"!!!!!!"

Upon hearing Gudako's words, everyone froze in place for a moment.

A series of exclamation marks appeared on their foreheads.

He was clearly shocked by Gudako's words.

"Well, it seems that's indeed the case."

The milk foam-covered cowboy, resting his hands on his chin, began to act as the strategist and said...

"Leonidas, Merlin, and I were all summoned by King Gilgamesh. Logically speaking, we Servants should disappear soon after our Master dies."

"But now, we are still alive and well, and we haven't been forcibly returned to the Throne of Heroes, which means..."

"In other words, the king is not actually dead; at least his body still has a breath left."

At this moment, the white-haired online swindler Merlin took over the conversation and said.

"As long as the soul is retrieved and put back into the body, the king can come back to life."

After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Li Lin, who was silently gnawing on a chicken leg.

Li Lin “........."

Well, it seems I can't hide my intention to get away with this anymore.

Originally, Li Lin thought that it was fine if Jin Shanshan died.

With his current strength, dealing with the Warcraft front would be a piece of cake.

Even after his death, Gilgamesh was still able to work for Ereshkigal in the Underworld, which at least helped him draw some attention to himself.

However, this perfect plan was ruined because of her own stupid Master.

Li Lin couldn't help but roll his eyes.

An urge to spank Fujimaru Ritsuka hard rose within him.

Going to the underworld to retrieve someone?

Makes it sound so easy, but is the underworld really that easy to get to these days?

Li Lin was certain that if he ever set foot on the land of the underworld, he would be discovered by Ai Lei one hundred percent.

You should know that just a moment ago he forcibly sent his wife back to the underworld.

And now, not long after all this time, they're already trying to invade someone else's territory.

If Ellie knew about this suicidal good deed, she'd probably be laughing in her sleep.

...................

Chapter 172, the beautiful girls are begging you. Please bring Gilgamesh back to work again!

Why are you all staring at me?

"This chicken leg tastes pretty good."

Facing everyone's gaze, Li Lin waved the large, meaty leg in his hand and forcefully changed the subject.

Do you want him to go to the underworld to rescue people?

impossible!

He's making this clear today: even if he has to die, even if he jumps off the highest temple in Uruk, he will never go to the underworld!

"Chicken legs can be eaten anytime. Shouldn't we talk about King Gilgamesh now?"

As a court aide, Merlin was the first to step forward and speak.

Although he had a way to transfer the contracts of the heroic spirits such as Ushiwakamaru after the king died.

But if that were the case, wouldn't he, as a working man, have to inherit King Gilgamesh's job and become the second person to die from overwork?

"Don't come here."

"Golden Gilgamesh is dead. He's probably enjoying a rare vacation in the underworld right now."

"There's just this little thing on the ground, and you still want to drag him up here to work overtime? Are you a monster?"

Li Lin shoved Merlin's head away and couldn't help but complain.

In the original storyline, Gilgamesh's death would indeed be quite a troublesome matter.

But look what's happened to this broken singularity now?

I originally thought the Warcraft front was the main enemy.

Only now does he realize that his wife Ereshkigal and Ishtar are the most likely culprits to destroy the world.

Li Lin stated that even if a mere Jin Gu created countless monsters, it would still be no match for a super alien.

“Uh…, but without King Gilgamesh, Uruk has no soul.”

Merlin's lips twitched as he watched Li Lin's greasy hands cover his forehead without any regard for his appearance.

He then silently cast a cleansing spell on himself before continuing.

"Look, everyone misses the King. Can you bear to see so many beautiful girls begging you?"

Li Lin: Ignore it, ignore it, keep eating chicken legs, keep eating chicken legs.

Merlin: "..."

"Can you stop gnawing on that lousy chicken leg and get down to business?"
