Chapter 30: Sister and Brother Meet
The second lair of Ozmandis is not located in some inconspicuous desert oasis like the Temple of Nut, but in the oasis of Fayon, near the royal capital. It's a densely populated land and a nearby transportation hub, so it's not easy to get noticed by unfamiliar faces. It is estimated that the high priest took a fancy to the huge flow of people here and felt that it was convenient to spy on information, so he set up this secret den.
In order to avoid premature exposure, Evan left his large army at sea and arrived at the Oasis of Fayon alone with the Holy Book of Hades and the head of Ozmandis.
As he approached the oasis town, a cold atmosphere appeared in front of him, warriors, barricades, and cold swords, like a military fortress on the verge of a great war. The sky was gray, with the occasional flash or two of signal lights, and the flickering searchlights hung in the corner of the sky, emitting a blazing white glow.
“......”
Seeing this scene, Evan sighed silently, knowing that he was late.
Now that Ozmandis's second lair has also been ended, there is no way to contact the rest of the priest leaders for the time being, so they can only take one step at a time.
He stopped, crouched on the ground, and before the army sentinels arrived, he pulled the prepared ribbon from his bosom and wrapped the holy book of Hades and the box containing the head of Ozmandis in the same way that he wrapped the gift box.
"Put down what you have in your hand and hold your name!"
The Corona Knight raised his halberd with a loud shout, aimed his bright blade at Evan, and formed a gap and open pocket array, which surrounded him as swiftly as the wind.
"Don't get excited!"
He took his hands off the 'gift box', stood up and took off his hood, and as he asked for his name:
"I am Evan Amenemat Amenemhet, the king of this country, and I want to see my cousin. ”
"He's real!"
Among these guards, there were apparently those who had participated in the coronation ceremony, and his identity was immediately confirmed.
......
In the 'protection' of the two Corona Knights, Evan turned onto a side road in the central street of the town and walked three hundred meters along a slip of dirt-gray houses. As a warm south breeze mixed with the smell of ripe fruits, a green lawn slowly unfolded in the field of vision.
It was a flat land of delicate grass and vines, surrounded by sharp iron fences and jagged rockeries. A manor house cloaked in mystery is built on it.
The layout of the manor is not very large, with a radius of only a few hundred meters, and several rows of thick display boards are neatly placed on the grass, on which the sacred book of the Holy Maiden Courtyard is marked - the so-called Holy Maiden Courtyard is actually the Green Building, although it is painted with a layer of sacred religious color...... But that only makes someone more excited.
After Ivan saw these signs, two eyeballs almost jumped out of their sockets, and his cousin, the queen of Menes, the strongest incarnation of the sun god, actually settled in the green building.
Does she really know what this place is!?
"Cousin lives here!?" he asked, a little angrily.
"Your Majesty...... The queen didn't care about that, she just liked the environment...... We've all persuaded ......" The Corona Knight's expression was also quite embarrassed.
“......”
Evan was speechless.
Perhaps because of the abundant financial resources, the architectural style of the Holy Lady Temple is several grades higher than the surrounding area, the overall appearance is like a hollow ring, the main building of the Holy Lady Temple in the middle, and the surrounding parking lots, stove rooms, laundry rooms, and stables are scattered around the manor.
As Evan walked forward, he looked at the scenery around him—a faint light shining through the dappled clouds on the wooden house, a few birds skimming through the air, and the wind that smelled of grass and earth gently blew through the curtains on the window railings.
If it weren't for the kiln, it would be a good place for vacation and leisure.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is meditating, and it is inconvenient for us to enter. The Corona Knights stopped in front of the door and returned his two gift boxes.
“......”
Evan picked up the hastily prepared gift box, kept his calm, and opened the door of the Holy Maiden Temple.
The moment the sliding door was opened, a faint incense came to the face, and the dust in the air flew in the light.
It seems to have been sorted out, and there are not many furnishings in the space, so it seems very spacious. Half of the wooden sofa on the right-hand side has no armrests and can be reclined or sitting, and the walls are pure white and partially decorated with carvings. The wood-colored floors are shiny, the pillars are painted clean white, golden papyrus is painted, and books and pen barrels are sprinkled on the floor.
"Finally back. ”
The silver bell-like words came from the window, and Ivan turned his head in a little surprise to find that the window was connected to the side of a flower room, separated by a curtain, and he almost ignored it.
"Can you come back and prove that Ozmandis is dead?"
Eru Lomme lifted the curtain and stood by the window, the clear light pouring in through the window, outlining a pleasing silhouette for her.
The white jade beauty seems to light up the entire room, making people feel that she emits an endless glimmer of light around her, making it even more attractive.
"Everything was expected by my cousin. "He's a little stiff and flattering.
"I knew that Ozmandis was about to flee to the wind-blown lands of the east, so I sent a fleet to intercept it in the waterway, but without waiting for his ship, I felt that maybe things had changed. ”
As she spoke, a pair of slender and charming eyes flashed with a pair of inside and outside, carefully observing her cheap brother and husband, leaving the curtain and walking towards each other:
"So, I found this place through some priests who surrendered...... I was thinking that if you were smart enough, you would find this place too. ”
“......”
Ivan suddenly felt cold on his back, and in the other party's gaze, there was a feeling that there was nothing to hide.
"Ozmandis has the ability to manipulate the storm and the atmosphere, and is far more powerful than you, and is said to have developed the immortal evil curse. ”
Eru Romei walked up to him, a bright smile on the corner of her lips, but there was a sharp light in her silver eyes, as if she wanted to penetrate the other party:
"According to common sense, you can't hurt him...... Can you tell me how you did that?"
"This secret is also a gift I prepared for my cousin. ”
Fortunately, Evan had been prepared for this, put down the box containing the high priest's head, and sent the encapsulated Hades Holy Scripture over:
"The treasure of the Atum Order, the Holy Book of Hades. ”
“......”
She narrowed her eyes, reached out and took the Holy Book of Hades, tore open the oilcloth envelope, and flipped through the pages of the book.
"The true Holy Book of Hades!"
After confirming the authenticity, Eru Luomei slammed the book shut, looked at Evan's eyes getting hotter and hotter, and suddenly opened her arms excitedly and hugged him:
"My good brother, you always bring me good news!"
