Moses quickly walked away

  The death of Ramses II occurred in this context, with everyone being tight-lipped about the cause of his death, which has even become a historical enigma. In later mythological accounts and popular rumors, some said that Ramses II died from a palace coup, while others claimed that the pharaoh died from the wrath of the gods, and more people said that he died with the destruction of the Horus statue, because he claimed to be the earthly incarnation of Horus.

  These three major events occurred on the same day, and the entire Aegir Empire seemed to be shrouded in an invisible dark cloud. From high-ranking officials to ordinary people, everyone was restless and unable to calm down. The capital city of Aegir, Dreamflight, was no exception. After the Holy Maiden reported the urgent messages from various places and the imperial capital, the grand hall of the temple fell silent, with only a heavy and tense breathing sound being heard. People were guessing all sorts of possibilities in their minds, but they didn't dare to express their true thoughts.

  After a long time, it was General Amun of the Empire who broke the silence and asked first: "Did the messenger from the capital mention anything about the new Pharaoh's succession?"

  The holy maiden replied: "Your Majesty's son, Rasis III, has ascended to the throne and the new Pharaoh has renamed himself Eracht. The new Lord Eracht decrees that all city officials and slaves under their jurisdiction are to remain in their posts and not leave without permission, to comfort the people within the borders, and await the latest edicts and divine revelations."

  The new pharaoh's ascension, the officials in various places to comfort the people, is not unexpected. Such a major event must also be quelled with the name of divine revelation to calm the panic among the people, and it is wise for the new pharaoh to wait for the latest divine revelation everywhere. However, the name that Ramses III changed for himself has a deep meaning, "Erahet" means --- the light of An-Ra, the guardian of Set.

  This new pharaoh has moved out the oldest of the nine heavenly gods, An-Ra, and Set, the uncle of Horus in legend. In ancient Egyptian mythology, when Osiris established the Egyptian Empire, his brother Set was the guardian of the throne. It can be understood that the suffix of the pharaoh's title is like this, but it does not mention Horus with the name An-Ra, which is thought-provoking.

  Amun fell silent, and in the blink of an eye, he thought of many things. Could something have happened to the god Horus? He had read the ancient texts hidden in the temple of Isis, that is, the volume that was said to have not been opened for two hundred years, which included two poems telling the stories of Isis and An-Ra, and Horus and Set.

  It is said that Isis had subdued the old father of the gods, Atum, by her wisdom and cunning, and acquired his power and position. In another poem, however, the king of the gods was Isis' husband Osiris, who was also the first pharaoh to establish Egypt, but he was killed by his brother Seth, who seized the throne. Later, Horus defeated Seth with Isis' help and became the king of Egypt.

  That is to say, there had been conflicts between the nine gods of the Ennead, some gods had retreated, and the vast empire of Egypt became the domain of Horus, while Lower Egypt's most populous and fertile region, Chem (or Kemet), was the domain of Isis, the underworld where souls dwelled was the domain of Osiris, and all other gods were subordinate to or dependent on them.

  If Horus were to suffer any mishap, whether fallen or wounded, the other side of the Nine League Heavenly God who was once a loser might make a comeback. As for the Divine Realm, Amun didn't know much about it, but from Mu Yun's goddess's few words, he could still piece together a lot of important information.

  Muyun, disguised as a bodyguard, said while rescuing Ah Mon on the battlefield: "The Red Ridge Town and the mountains on both sides are the boundary of the divine domain of the Nine Heavenly Gods. I'd better not enter. I've been careful enough, hoping not to disturb them."

  Later, Horus appeared in the sky with a giant cloud eagle form. Mu Yun said angrily: "Because I appeared in the war... So Horus took this as an excuse to show his divine power, trying to change the outcome of this mortal war with his divine power. But I acted to protect you and did not invade the divine domain of the Nine Heavenly Gods. Horus did this, although he did not violate the agreement of the gods, it is despicable and exposed his weakness and fear!"

  It seems that there is a certain agreement between the gods, and there are also agreements between different pantheons. When this agreement is broken, it may lead to conflict. Enkai may be dead, but he has cut down the cloud eagle that appeared in the sky with a shocking sword, and this battle is likely to be the fuse for new conflicts.

  Enkidu's one sword is equal to a declaration that Horus is not as strong as imagined. And his appearance on the battlefield caused the wrath of the goddess Mu Yun, meaning that war occurs not only among mortals but also among gods.

  Amun speculated that it was likely that the Anunnaki pantheon of gods attacked the Nine-Linked Divine Domain, and the main god Horus of the Nine-Linked Divine Domain fell or was seriously injured in this conflict. The appearance of the Red Sea and the broken wings of the Horus statues in various city-state temples may all be related to this. Then the other side that lost the war in the Nine-Linked Pantheon is likely to have taken back the position of the main god, and the name of the new Pharaoh implies this point.

  The sudden death of Pharaoh is probably related to this, and as for how Lycoris II died, Amun cannot know the inside story. The sudden death of Lycoris II is not a good thing for Amun either, meaning that his recent efforts to make a big fuss about Meng Fei Si may have been in vain. Everything Amun did was largely for Lycoris II to see, and now that the new king has taken over, everything is still uncertain.

  If it were true as Amun had guessed, the conflict and change of status among the nine gods of Heliopolis would not necessarily be beneficial to Amun himself. Don't forget the title given to him by Ramses II - Great God Horus, protector of Upper and Lower Egypt, guardian of imperial dignity, heir to the glory of An-Ra, renowned general of the great nations.

  The first title of this letter is "Great God Horus, the protector", and both soldiers and civilians believed that Horus was inspired by Amun to appear, so Amun got such a noble title. There is another title behind which is "Inheriting An-Ra's glory", just because Amun was the commander of the An-Ra legion at that time, and even the soldiers called the An-Ra legion the Amun legion.

  Ahmon has sent Maidanzo and Link back to their territory, instructing Moses to take the General's orders to the Duk Plain, but something unexpected happened. If they hadn't set out early, they shouldn't be able to make it by now; if they had already departed, they wouldn't be able to pass through the checkpoints of each city-state and border, unless they didn't take the official road.

  Since Ah Meng had secretly dispatched Mei Dianzuo and Lin Ke to follow, these two disciples should be able to understand the changes in the situation in time and guide Moses and others to detour.

  Ahmose did not send anyone to bring Moses and his people back, his idea was clear, if Moses and his people could leave, they would be gone, and Medanzer and Link should have the ability to guide them through all obstacles. If they were stopped, the result would only be that they would be sent back to their territory. Because the general's order was issued before Ramses II died, and there was no time to send someone to bring them back after his death, this is not considered a fault.

  But Amun himself had to return to his domain immediately by the order of the new Pharaoh, waiting for a new edict and a new oracle. As the Grand General of the Empire, any unusual movement of his own at this sensitive moment might arouse suspicion from all sides. He set off with John and Themistocles, and before leaving, he only had time to bid farewell to Maria in public in the temple.

  Amon had many worries in his heart but couldn't express them, and he also saw a worried look in Maria's eyes. As the guardian saint of Isis, if something unexpected really happened among the nine heavenly gods, it would be difficult to measure the impact on the saintess of the Isis temple. Amon had too many secrets buried deep in his heart, but at this moment, he couldn't bear it anymore. When he left, he sent Johann to find Gabriel and handed over a secret letter, instructing him to personally hand it over to Saintess-sama.

  He mentioned in the letter his understanding and some speculations about the realm of gods and the relationship between them, and reminded Maria to take a look at a volume of books, which was the poem written by an ancient bard that he had read before. With Maria's intelligence, she should have a plan in mind for what might happen and what preparations to make, which is no longer something Amun can control.

  ……

  Ramses II died, and a national funeral was held, the whole nation mourned, and the new Pharaoh succeeded. According to convention, there would be a general amnesty in the country, and the whole nation would celebrate. It's hard to say whether it's joy or sorrow, or a mix of both.

  On the first day of Amun's return to his territory, the first person he met was not the new Pharaoh's envoy, but rather the chief official of Heliopolis, Branka. Amun asked him in surprise: "Lord Branka, haven't you received the latest orders from the capital? Why have you left Heliopolis and come to me at this time?"

  Blanca made a bitter face and said in a pleading tone: "General, I came here just for the Pharaoh's order to borrow people from the General to save the emergency!"

  "Does Pharaoh command you to borrow people?" Ah Mon frowned and asked, "Borrow what kind of people?"

  Blanca explained: "It wasn't the Pharaoh who ordered me to borrow people, but I had no choice but to borrow from General Heraut because of the Pharaoh's orders. On the first day after His Majesty ascended to the throne, he sent someone to Mount Horeb to issue an order, requiring all the divine stones produced over the years to be transported to the capital, and also transferring all skilled craftsmen to Shilmo, saying that they were going to build a temple for Anra, the heavenly god, and surround the temple with a new city.

  "Ever since you took away the Duketown miners, the divine stone output of He Leshan has decreased by nearly 40%. There are a large number of extracted mineral cores piled up there waiting to be processed into divine stones. But those divine artisans can't complete these tasks at all. Now the Pharaoh has also transferred a large number of craftsmen and is urging the divine stones to be delivered directly to the imperial capital according to the original output, I really have no way! So I want to borrow your slaves to help."

  Amun shook his head gently and said, "They are my clansmen. I finally managed to bring them away from He Lie Shan, how can I send them back? I know your situation is indeed difficult, but General Ben loves Mo and cannot help."

  Blanca stepped forward and said, "I'm not asking the general to send them back to He Lie Shan, I just want to ask for your help. I can have people bring over the extracted mineral cores and then transport the extracted divine stones back. They are your slaves, and I won't let you help me for nothing. According to the old rules of Du Ke Town, for every ten divine stones excavated, one is paid as a reward to the general."

  This condition is tempting, but Ahmon's eyebrows are even more tightly locked: "Didn't the Pharaoh transfer a large number of craftsmen? Even if my clansmen can take out the divine stone for you, you don't have enough manpower to mine the nuclear ore in the mine."

  Blanca shook her head and said, "The pharaoh took away the craftsmen who excavated stone materials, most of the craftsmen who excavated mine cores are still in He Lie Shan. I can still ask the city-state for help and urgently recruit a batch of people to cope with it. The last step is difficult to extract the divine stone from the mine core, and asking Generalissimo for help is the best solution."

  "Unfortunately, you've come too late. Pharaoh had granted me a piece of land in the Dukhep Plain, but I needed to send people to occupy and cultivate it myself. I've already sent this batch of slaves there, and they should have arrived by now. According to the latest orders, they are to guard that land and cannot leave, so even if they could rush back, it would be like trying to put out a fire with water from afar. However, since you've come all the way here to ask for my help, I won't let you leave empty-handed. I will write a letter to the Isis Temple to report your difficulties and request that they send a group of divine magic users to support Mount Heliopolis."

  Blanca left in disappointment. Whether Amun's words were true or false, he had no right to order the general what to do. But this trip was not completely in vain, at least Amun promised to help him write a letter to the Temple of Isis for help. After sending Blanca away, Amun felt that something was wrong and fell into deep thought.

  The two most important places of origin for the sacred stones are Hilmo in Upper Egypt and Mount Horeb in Lower Egypt. Hilmo is not as desolate as Mount Horeb; it lies about six hundred miles north of Mophist, at the confluence of the River Roni and a tributary, and although the surrounding area is mountainous, there are large tracts of arable land in the valley, so Pharaoh Erahkhtet thought to build the temple of Anru and a new capital there.

  This move also means that the old pattern will be changed, and An-Ra may replace Horus in the position of Egyp Empire. If the Pharaoh orders the construction of An-Ra Temple in each city-state next, Amun's guess will be confirmed. Who becomes the main god of the Nine League God System has nothing to do with Amun, he only worries about two things: one is what subtle changes Maria's identity will undergo and what kind of changes she will encounter; the other is the fate of the people of Du Ke Town.

  According to the tradition of the Egu Empire, each Pharaoh had to build a mausoleum for himself since his accession. This was a huge project, and Elahert also had to build a new capital and build a main temple for An-Ra at the same time. Not only did it require the consumption of great wealth, but also the gathering of craftsmen from all over the country. Where were the best craftsmen on the continent? They were those people in Du Ke Town!

  If Pharaoh orders them to be summoned, even if those people have already arrived at the plain of Dukk, Amun must call them back. It's not as simple as dealing with Blanca. Moses and others are slaves of Imperial General Amun, equivalent to his private property, which cannot be arbitrarily deprived by Pharaoh, but can be requisitioned.

  As slaves, they can be lent and returned like goods. If Pharaoh "borrows" them to build temples or cities, when will they return? Especially for tasks like building tombs, the best craftsmen often find it hardest to come back. If they don't return, it's reasonable and lawful for Pharaoh to compensate Amun with a new batch of slaves. But Amun doesn't want slaves; if so, where can he find his tribesmen?

  Amun immediately called John over, gave him many solitary orders, and handed over the last Wind Flying Arrow and a Space Law Instrument in his hand to John, ordering him to go find Medanzo and Link immediately. He said with a hint of apology: "My captain of the guard, you are probably the happiest person in Aegir for the past few days, despite all the big things that have happened, but they have nothing to do with you, just accompanying Temis to be happy is good. I'm very sorry to disturb your happiness, things are urgent, you secretly set off and don't let anyone discover you, go quickly and return quickly."

  "Ah, Amun, why must you speak to me thus?" John bowed hastily. "Your will is command; I shall take my leave of Themis at once."

  The new Pharaoh Erhart has ordered that all territorial officials are not allowed to go out privately, and John leaving the territory is naturally not convenient for leaking messages. Amun gave him a Wind Chaser Flying Arrow, as a great warrior who can drive flying arrows, because he cultivates the power of both sides.

  Amon is now very rich, but precious artifacts are not that easy to get. He currently only owns three spatial objects: the magical bone, the Wind Dancer crafted by Old Maniac, and a spatial ring crafted by Link using the Wind Dancer. Link gave the ring as a gift to Amon, who is particularly skilled at crafting various objects, while Old Maniac was once the best craftsman on the continent. Amon also passed on the teachings he received from Nietzsche to him.

  An unexpected situation has arisen, and Armon's messenger John orders Medanzer to give the Wind Dancer to Moses, inlaid with iron branch staff carrying necessary supplies, and also hand over the space bracelet for use by Medanzer and Link.

  Amon had a Crystal Dart and two Wind Darts, but the Crystal Dart and one of the Wind Darts were given to Maidana. Now the last Wind Dart was also given to Johan, so he no longer has any flight artifacts. However, Amon already possesses an 8th-level achievement, allowing him to instantly cast divine flight magic.

  The Pursuing Light, the Puppeteer's Mirror, and the two sets of Scorpion Armor and Snake Phosphor Armor that Link had repaired were all handed over to Midna, showing just how much importance Alm placed on this matter.

  After John left, Ah Mon also started packing his things. The large batch of special divine stones obtained from the treasure of Goddess Mu Yun must be packed properly, and the most precious objects in his hand include a tear of the gods, Gilgamesh's divine bow, Humbaba's four fangs and a snake tendon, Enlil's whip when he disguised himself as a shepherd, etc.

  Arthas had been given an Earth's Tear containing information by Maria before he went to the Tirisfal Glades on a reconnaissance mission. Arthas now has eight achievements, but strangely, the information recorded in the Earth's Tear is still invisible to him. He keeps these things all stored in the Ribcage of Nerzhul for close carrying. There are many other things inside the bones, including various staves and weapons.
