Chapter 32: The Awakened Ancient God?
Ling Ping'an looked at the customer in front of him very happily, and was shocked when he saw the furnishings in his bookstore, and he was reluctant to take his eyes off at all.
He walked over to the water dispenser, picked up a plastic cup, poured a glass of water for the guest, and handed it over: "Please drink water......
Situ He came back to his senses.
He barely suppressed the horror in his heart and took the water glass.
He took a sip.
It's really just ordinary drinking water.
Meow!
At this moment, a kitten strode out of the counter.
It walked to Situ He's feet, then raised its small head and softly called again: Meow!
Situ He lowered his head and saw the kitten.
Then, he swallowed heavily.
Because he recognized the psionic reaction coming from the kitten's body.
It was a few years ago when the king of the Kingdom of Egypt visited.
As the head of security, he received the visiting king's family.
A similar psionic reaction has been felt from them.
Situ He also heard the governor say that two hundred years ago, the aura was revived, and the first wave swept the world.
Some ancient gods have awakened a part of their consciousness.
Among them, the awakening in Egypt is the goddess of cats, Best, the patron goddess of the family they worshipped in ancient times.
It is because of this awakened goddess.
The Kingdom of Egypt could gain its independence.
But......
Isn't the cat goddess awakened with only a little consciousness and instinct?
It is only after the great sacrifice that he can briefly awaken more power.
What's up with this kitten?
…………………………
Ling Ping'an looked at the customer and looked at his kitten with a curious expression.
He then smiled and picked up the little guy and said, "It's called Best, and I picked it up a few days ago......"
"How?" Ling Ping'an grabbed the kitten's two paws and greeted the guests like a guest: "Cute!" ”
…………………………
Situ He swallowed heavily and looked at the incredible scene that happened in front of him.
Suspected of the existence of the cat goddess, she was picked up by this monster like a pet.
He also grabbed the paw of what appeared to be a cat goddess and greeted him.
Situ He's breathing couldn't help but become short.
"Picked up?"
"Pick up a goddess and show me!"
At this time, Situ He finally remembered.
A month earlier, imperial diplomats in Kunlun had sent back reports of unrest in the Kingdom of Egypt.
A warlord dissatisfied with the kingdom in the country, in collusion with foreign enemies, invaded Egypt's heavily guarded holy place, the Pyramid of Khufu, which enshrines the life-size golden statue of the awakened consciousness of the cat goddess.
and successfully snatched the statue of the cat goddess from the Egyptians.
According to intelligence, in addition to the rebel parties inside and outside Egypt, there were also many forces on the Qin land that participated in this operation.
Among them is the Templar Society, which has been secretly at odds with the Federal Empire.
Accordingly, the Federal Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an early warning to all the overseas kingdoms of the Federation, requesting that vigilance against the transcendent be strengthened.
In case the temple will use the snatched cat statue to do something unfavorable to the overseas kingdoms of the Federation.
Unfortunately, the subsequent outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in the Northern Zhou Kingdom attracted all the attention of the Federal Empire.
And the temple will be slow to move.
So the black-clothed guard gradually relaxed his vigilance.
Now it seems that it is not that the temple will not move, but that the statue of the cat goddess that they snatched has an accident.
This accident is most likely caused by the monster in front of you.
And......
Situ He looked at the kitten he was holding.
The amber cat's eyes are clearly full of flattery and flattery.
"Could this monster be some ancient god who has awakened? And he used to have an unusually close relationship with the goddess cat in ancient Egypt...... "Situ He had to think about such a thing.
But here's the problem......
What god would have a connection with the ancient Egyptian goddess thousands of miles away?
"If I can go back alive, I will definitely ask the Governor......" Situ He thought.
The Doge is by far the only human to have ever defeated the Awakened Ancient Gods.
Perhaps, he could have known more.
But now, Situ He could only smile reluctantly and echo the other party: "Cute, very cute!" ”
Hearing his answer, the monster seemed satisfied, and the kitten he was holding in his arms was even more satisfied.
The cat's eyes drooped slightly, giving him a little encouragement of 'you said it was good'.
…………………………
Ling Ping was very happy to hear the praise of the customer.
Of course, as the owner of a bookstore, he knew that it was the right thing to do when he was in a hurry and sell books.
So, after observing the customer's expression, he said tentatively: "This guest, I don't know if you prefer to explore the truth of history, find the secret behind it, or like to study the black hand hidden behind the war?" ”
He said this for a reason.
In recent years, with the gradual development and popularization of mobile Internet.
The netizens of the Federal Empire are also becoming increasingly polarized.
Young people are naturally more enthusiastic about surfing the Internet, playing games, reading novels, and watching video clips.
The middle-aged and elderly are another style of painting.
In many people's circle of friends, you can often see the circle of friends sent by their parents.
Basically, they are reprinted pages or reports.
His painting style is mostly shocking.
Astound! The truth of the Battle of the New Qinling Mountains two hundred years ago turned out to be like this!
Wary! North Zhou's genetically modified soybeans are hurting our health!
Be careful! These things around you can lead to disaster!
In short, it's all like this.
And after opening it, it is basically a standard marketing account format.
The younger generation looks ridiculous.
But most of the elders were convinced.
Some time ago, the news report didn't say that the middle-aged and elderly people in a certain community collectively protested against the construction of telecommunication towers in the community.
They claim that radiation from signal towers is carcinogenic!
As a result, the telecommunications construction company had to dismantle the communication towers of the complex.
The consequence is that the telephone and network in the community have no signal, and young people jump to scold their mothers.
But the elders refuted it with an unscrupulous marketing account article that they didn't know where to find it.
Ling Ping'an guessed that this customer should be a different style of painting.
Judging from the fact that he was wearing a retro military uniform from the Taizu era, Ling Ping'an guessed that he should be the kind of typical middle-aged and elderly republican voters who worship Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong.
And what kind of painting style is the middle-aged and elderly voters of the Republican faction?
They are full of conspiracy theories, and they always feel that many things that have happened in history have behind the scenes and the cabal.
They stubbornly believe that there is a cabal in many things in the history of the Federal Empire.
They are suspicious of the Cabinet, of the Parliament of Ministers, and even of science.
Some extreme people even wonder if the earth is round.
Basically, except for the community where they live, the staff of the neighborhood committee who get along day and night.
All the other officials' words, they were skeptical.
And their favorite is naturally related conspiracy theory writings.
For example, three of the top five best-selling federal books are sold by these people.
Moreover, these books all have one thing in common - they are expensive and super profitable!
