Chapter 21: Finding the Team (270 Monthly Pass Plus Update)

"It's Seth's curse." After taking care of the matter here, Ryuji went to find Edward under the leadership of Nick.

As an old captain, Edward knew exactly what was going on, especially since he had been running the Mediterranean for many years, and he had a deeper understanding of the gods and spirits near Alexandria.

"Seth is a deity unique to the provinces of Egypt, the god of deserts, war, and storms, who killed his brother before becoming a god, and was also slain by Horus, the god of vengeance, the guardian of royal power.

So they will always use curses of one kind or another to destroy the stability of Egypt, and the curse on your body means that you are an enemy of Seth, and if you don't deal with it, you will wither and die in about thirty days. ”

With that, Edward took out a strange pendant and handed it to Ryuji.

"You were affected in this way to protect my ship, this pendant is not very good, but it represents my heart, and if you can find the legendary Horus Upper Castle within thirty days, you can solve the curse on your body."

"Where's the palace of Horus?" This is related to his own life, Liu Zhi naturally asked seriously.

"In the desert near Madfuna, but no one knows the general location, and you know that the territory of the gods is not accessible to ordinary people."

Madfuna? A trace of confusion flashed in Liu Zhi's heart, why didn't this place name sound like an Egyptian style.

In fact, Liuji did not know that this place name has changed over the years, originally Madfuna was called Abydos, which was the royal mausoleum of the first two dynasties, and Horus's father, Osiris, the ancient Egyptian mythological Hades, was buried here.

So Edward's recommendation was correct, and at least Horus's earthly house would most likely appear in that place.

But Liu Zhi didn't know anything, and he was a little helpless at this time.

At this moment, Nick patted Ryuji on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Sandru, you don't have to worry, we still have time, when we get off the boat, I will find someone to send this thing away, and then we will accompany you to the above-ground palace of Horus." ”

Before Liu Zhi could agree, a message popped up in front of him.

[Hint: Would you like to join Nick's team and explore the above-ground palace of Horus with Nick.] 】

Liu Zhi knew at a glance that this was a hint of his VIP mission, he thought about it and finally agreed, no matter what the reward given by the VIP mission was at the end, and whether there were other tasks to choose from, he had to save his life first.

"Well, I'll get off the ship and find out where Madfuna is, and I have other tasks in Alexandria, so I need to deal with this first."

"No problem, I also need to send this praise of the gods first, otherwise with this thing, there is no way for us to help you, then let's agree on a place, I know that there is a famous iron pot boiling hotel in Alexandria, tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, we will wait there until nightfall."

Ryuji nodded, indicating that he could find this iron pot to cook the hotel, and then they went their separate ways.

After returning to his room and packing up with little to pack, Ryuji glanced at the pendant that Edward had given him.

[Token of Zeus: Praying to Zeus through food can charge thunderbolt gems and activate some special functions. 】

Seeing this situation, Ryuji nodded slightly, as the captain of the Zeus, it is a very reasonable thing to be a believer in Zeus, and this thing is also very useful for Ryuji, at least he doesn't have to worry about running out of thunder and lightning in the thunderbolt coral to find someone to help recharge the matter.

After packing his luggage, Ryuji found some more gold coins, which looked rather strange, with the head of the Holy Roman Emperor printed on the front and a mountain shrouded in lightning on the back, which was supposed to be Mount Olympus.

As can be seen from the situation of gold coins, the Holy Roman Empire is a kingdom where gods and emperors are equally important, and in this country, the status of gods may be higher than that of ordinary people.

This also reminds Ryuji that he can wave as much as he wants in this country, but don't have any conflicts with the gods.

Thinking of this, Ryuji glanced down at the mark on his chest again, it was too late to say anything, he had already fought with him, it seemed that this time in the game, he would face a more difficult challenge than before.

Just then, the ship's whistle sounded again.

Ryuji knew that they had entered Alexandria.

He thought for a moment and put his luggage on the luggage rack at the door, as first-class passengers, their luggage would be carried off the ship by the sailor and the attendant.

Ryuji only needs to take care of his personal belongings, and he also wants to take a look at Alexandria's landmark, the Alexandria Lighthouse.

Walking to the deck, Ryuji saw the legendary lighthouse from a distance, which was about 135 meters high, and even if he was far away, he could clearly see everything on it.

The entire lighthouse is divided into three floors, the first floor is a square structure, 60 meters high, and there are more than 300 rooms of various sizes inside, which are the rooms where the lighthouse employees live.

The second floor is an octagonal structure, 15 meters high, which is used to store the fuel needed for the lighthouse.

The third floor is a circular structure surrounded by 8 stone pillars 8 meters high, and at the top of the tower, there is an 8-meter-high bronze statue of the sun god Apollo in a standing position.

When Ryuji walked onto the deck, there happened to be a ray of sunlight shining through the mirror on the top of the lighthouse, shining on the sun crystal on the top of Ryuji's death staff, provoking a reaction from the sun crystal.

"With such a strong solar power, it seems that it is not for nothing that this lighthouse can suppress the whole of Alexandria."

Just a slight feeling, Liu Zhi felt the sun divine power in the sunlight shining through, although it was weaker than the sun divine power in his feathered serpent divinity, but this was just the sunlight reflected by mortals with a mirror, if there was really a priest of the sun god on it, how strong would the sun divine power that could be attracted?

Thinking of this, Liu Zhi's originally swollen mind couldn't help but be suppressed.

And at this time, the ship finally came to shore. 8)
