PS: Ten thousand updates are presented. As a reminder, it's 5,000 words in the morning and evening. Ask for recommendations! Ask for a tip! Ask for a commuter pass! Let's support it. Hey.
Since she was born, she was destined to marry the ugly and short, stupid and ruthless brother who was 10 years younger than herself, as his wife. God knows how reluctant she is. His father, Ptolemy XII, on his deathbed, wanted him to rule Egypt with him, but in the end he broke his tradition and promise and drove him away. Now he has sent Pharaoh's guard to take his life.
Her world-class beauty, her wisdom, and her political skills will all be in vain, and along with this yellow sand, she will be buried in the boundless desert, with red faces and white bones, and the fragrance will disappear!
But the kobold Abinus Guardian suddenly erupted in a scream!
Looking at the bed veil as thin as a cicada's wings, behind this guard, a black shadow swept by at lightning speed, and the Pharaoh's Guard soldier with a dog-headed body and a scimitar did not move for a long time, and then the dog's head slowly fell, and blood gushed out from the section of the neck!
Cleopatra was moved, and she had seen a lot of killing, but the agility and decisiveness of this shadow's killing and decisiveness were really something she had never seen in her life.
Another group of Abinus guards came in, but this black shadow flew down with one claw, turned around and flew down with another claw, and another flew up, and the most elite Pharaoh's guard in Egypt had no enemy in front of him!
Cleopatra suddenly felt very curious about this dark shadow man who protected herself.
Judging by his body and clothes, he was not Egyptian. It's not a Roman, his shots are so ruthless, and they are deep and rhythmic.
Cleopatra watched with interest as the dark shadow fought the Egyptian Pharaoh's Guard in front of her window, but Kirk, who was trying to kill people, was bitter.
They themselves were a sneak attack, and they went smoothly all the way, taking advantage of the yellow sand and sandstorm attacks, they assassinated Ptolemy's army all the way, and gradually killed the Golden Horde where Cleopatra was.
Who would have thought that this time Ptolemy was honestly ruthless. This half-sister must be put to death. Send out all the Abinus guards, which are frighteningly numerous, very well armed, and skilled in martial arts. Kill without blinking. Kirk was highly skeptical. If this pharaoh treated the invasion of the Romans. With such a milk-eating force, will Egypt end up as a colony today?
He kicked away a shirtless slave who was trying to slash Meg, and lost no time in squeezing Meg's upright jade buttocks. In the witch princess's resentful eyes, she once again plunged the wolf's claw into the throat of the attacking Abinus Guard.
Kirk didn't know what to do, and his heroic appearance of fighting fiercely with the pharaoh's legion and slaughtering the defenders of Abinus was already in full view of a pair of beautiful eyes. There is a lot of brilliance in the beautiful eyes.
The army of the pharaoh was originally attacking at night, and took advantage of the cover of the sandstorm, and the number of people occupied a huge advantage.
Half an hour into the battle, Kirk roared wildly, and with one claw he grabbed the last Abinus Guardian, who fell heavily into the sand, blood gurgling dry, unable to struggle again.
Kirk watched the corpse-strewn battlefield, blood dripping from Wolverine's claws. Although the Pharaoh's guards were strong, they were unable to organize an effective resistance under the surprise attack of Kirk's team, and were destroyed in just half an hour.
This team's victory came easily, mainly due to the help of tactics and location, not to say that Kirk's team could defy the majesty of the Pharaoh's army in a frontal battle. Kirk touched the wolf head of the ancient Wolverine behind him contentedly, and walked with Wang Han to Cleopatra's Golden Horde.
When the maid respectfully opened the door of the Golden Tent and invited Kirk and the others to enter, Kirk saw Cleopatra's lineup for the first time.
Team Kirk was amazed!
It turns out that in everyone's minds, Cleopatra must be a beautiful and beautiful woman, and the Roman historian Livy called her "the sexy witch of the world", although this is the Romans' hatred of Caesar and Antony's leaders under the pomegranate skirt, but the description of contemporaneous historians should be accurate.
But contrary to his wishes, Cleopatra who appeared in front of Kirk was just like the Roman gold coins printed in later generations, short in stature, with a dark complexion, a tall nose, and an ugly appearance.
This??? Kirk's team looked at each other, and it turned out that the truth hidden behind history was so cruel. The iron-like reality shattered the flowery dreams of this group of men.
No wonder a Roman historian said: "Cleopatra's nose is an inch longer or an inch shorter, and Western history will be rewritten." Originally, everyone thought that this was proof that Cleopatra's appearance was perfect and impeccable. But there is actually another way to interpret it.
That is, this Cleopatra is actually too ugly, the ugliest thing is her nose, if the nose can be taller or shorter, it will be much better looking than now.
Wang Han looked at the stunned and thunderous appearance of this group of people, and said in the team channel with a burst of amusement: "Okay, don't be rude in front of Cleopatra." Originally, there were many rumors that the reason why Cleopatra was able to conquer Caesar and Antony was not because of her peerless beauty and charm, but because of her intelligence and political skills, so that the two generations of heroes who coveted Egypt were willing to be convinced. ”
Chubby muttered: "The gap between this rumor and reality is too big, right?" It's comparable to Takizawa's trailer and reality show??? Well? Did you find out, her nose really wanted to ??? Takizawa."
Of course, Wang Han glared back at him.
Cleopatra looked at the expressions of the guys, smiled slightly, and walked up.
For some reason, it was clear that the honor of Cleopatra was not worthy of the name, but once she laughed, everyone felt like a hundred flowers blooming, and it seemed that even the room temperature was a few degrees higher. When this Cleopatra came, the men felt that she smiled and shook her step by step. There is a kind of charm that cannot be said in words.
This is the beauty style, some women obviously look very ordinary, but they are among the beauties in the hearts of men. Some women are obviously very outstanding, but they have never been pursued by men, and the gap between them cannot be measured by appearance and figure at all.
The so-called red face and troubled water, the color of the country.
But Cleopatra's appearance is so shocking, her nose is not only short, but also the left side is slightly turned out, which seriously affects the perception score. Chubby after a brief period of vertigo. I couldn't help but turn my head away. I almost threw up.
In Las Vegas, Chubby is used to seeing beautiful women of all skin tones, and his taste is elevated. The appearance of this "Cleopatra" really can't get into his eyes.
Kirk thinks. The rest of Cleopatra's face is ordinary. It's even ugly. But only those eyes are definitely at the level of peerless beauty.
Behind him, there were peerless beauties such as Catherine and Elisia who had been abducted from various worlds. But when it comes to the beauty of the eyes, there is no one who can compare to this Cleopatra.
The ancient Egyptian woman herself is known for her big eyes and long eyelashes, and the eyes of Cleopatra are like a bay of autumn, bright eyes, pearlescent Beze, extremely smart, impressive.
"Thank you for your assistance to me, the supreme ruler of Egypt, Cleopatra VII, and if there is anything requested, I will do my best to accommodate it." Cleopatra lightly opened her lips, her voice was not high, but it was full of majesty.
"I'm rubbing, this girl is really lucky, and her voice is so magnetic, if it weren't for her face being so ugly, I really couldn't help but be tempted." Chubby continued to speak to the shy Sheva. Pulo, a fellow fan, nodded his head again and again.
Kirk was troubled, and although he was ordered by Caesar to hunt down Pompey in Egypt, he did not receive Caesar's official authorization to engage in diplomatic contact with Cleopatra. If Caesar did not approve of it, wouldn't this Cleopatra think that she was deceiving her?
"His Majesty the Great Pharaoh (after falling out with Ptolemy XIII, Cleopatra has proclaimed herself Pharaoh. Egypt could be ruled by a female pharaoh), and I was ordered by Julius. Caesar, who came to Egypt to hunt down Pompey, the public enemy of Rome. He is now in cahoots with your enemy, Pharaoh Ptolemy. Although I am not officially authorized by Caesar to engage diplomatically with you on his behalf, I think our interests at this moment are highly aligned. Especially after tonight Ptolemy sent an army on a massive assault on you. “
Cleopatra nodded. She had already received information from her subordinates that in tonight's raid, the troops she had managed to gather had been killed and wounded, and it could be said that she was a bare-bones commander. If she can hold the big thick leg of Caesar the Conqueror, it will be of great benefit to her to regain the throne.
Don't look at Cleopatra's calm face, which she has cultivated since she was a child in the Egyptian court full of bloody intrigues. In fact, this ambitious woman is already looking at self-pity, can this kind of exile life still survive?
The army that he had painstakingly gathered was killed and wounded in this sneak attack, and he had nothing to do against his brother Ptolemy.
In fact, after Pompey's arrival, relying on the support of the Romans, Ptolemy quickly gained a foothold and stabilized the hearts of the people, Cleopatra received less and less support, and the situation was already moving in her direction.
Is the warrior in front of her, who has verified the prophecy of the priest of Amun, her true "nobleman"?
"Brave warriors, your heroic deeds have been seen by me, Cleopatra VII. Unfortunately, I have neither power nor money to reward you, so please receive my sincere thanks. I promise that if one day I can enter Alexandria and regain the throne as Pharaoh, I will be doubly grateful for your saving grace. Cleopatra said slowly.
Chubby teased and whispered: "It turns out that I want money but no money, and I don't know how this Cleopatra can hook up with Caesar and Anthony?" ”
Kirk didn't care. Recently, the seeds he planted in Numidia were well received, and Spartacus once again led his army to break through the camp of the king of Sinumides, capturing countless booty and wealth, and greatly increasing the strength of the army. According to this progress, before Caesar and Pompey could decide the final victor, Spartacus would lead Princess Winrita's Carthaginian remnant army to quell the revolt of the Sinumians loyal to Rome.
Once the power grows, even if Caesar personally conquers North Africa, relying on the boundless desert and the coming and going of the Numidian cavalry, as well as the command of Spartacus. I'm afraid that Caesar will not be able to return to heaven and cannot be destroyed.
In his heart, Cleopatra has always been a wall grass with milk and motherhood, a peerless witch, even if such a woman can be recovered temporarily, when she meets a tyrant like Caesar and Anthony, she is afraid that she will soon be embraced. Kirk didn't want his confinement to be thrown into the arms of others and give him a green hat. Moreover, the beauty of this Cleopatra is comparable to that of a certain sister, which also makes Kirk much less sexually interested.
He bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Pharaoh." You're welcome. I have sent a message to my lord. Caesar, the great conqueror, who will soon reply to show his respect for you. I trust you to have the support of my Lord, welcomed by the people of Egypt. Return to Alexandria. If nothing else. I will guard you with my team until Caesar arrives. ”
Cleopatra's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise. This man had fought madly and bloody, and now he was so humble and measured, and he was very measured towards Caesar and himself. Why did such a man stay with Caesar?
At that time, it was an out-and-out troubled era, and every ambitious monarch was recruiting talents, even Princess Wenrita, who was so downcast that she almost fell into the grass, couldn't help but be attracted when she saw Kirk, not to mention Cleopatra, who was interested in unifying Egypt?
But the two sides talked for a while, and saw that Kirk was humble, but neither humble nor arrogant, and did not have the slightest idea of serving himself. Cleopatra was gloomy in her heart, now that she even had a problem of survival, how could she recruit the first hero of Caesar's men who defeated the First Legion and captured the flag to defeat Pompey?
She smiled and waved, signaling for Kirk and the others to leave.
Kirk began to lay out the defenses of Cleopatra. Apparently unable to stay for long, the team began to help the surviving followers of Cleopatra as they began their migration through the desert towards the Syrian coastline. Since Egypt fell into the hands of Pompey, the combined fleet of Pompey and Egypt has blocked the coastline. When Caesar arrived, he would certainly not be able to storm Alexandria from the sea, but would certainly go ashore by sea, passing through Antioch, and lead a large army to conquer Pompey by land.
Along the way, Plo talks and laughs loudly, apparently trying to get Cleopatra's attention. This lawless soldier coveted Cleopatra. This kind of fraternity spirit that ignores appearance makes Xiaopang, a fellow fan, breathtaking. When asked why he wanted to be on this ugly Cleopatra, Pulo's words were even more speechless: "I have worked with more than 10,000 women, but my identity is not as good as that of the Egyptian pharaoh." When I'm old???"
But Cleopatra did not openly seduce the guard's Pulo as in the original play, but stayed quietly in her golden tent and car all day long. Through the transparent silk gold tent, you can see the waves on her calm and dignified face, only meditative and occasional sorrow.
Kirk and Wang Han were incredible.
"Didn't we meet Cleopatra VII? That stunningly voluptuous slut? Kirk whispered.
Wang Han shook his head: "You men always like to imagine our women's success as relying on women's sex and charm. In fact, there is also an in-depth study in the field of history that verifies that Cleopatra's success is not due to her seduction, but because of her outstanding political sense and clever skill, which Caesar and Antony have to respect and stand on her side. A strong proof of this is the Roman gold coins, which depict Cleopatra, which is not only beautiful, but even ugly. But this did not detract from her contribution as an outstanding female politician, and she relied on her own weak woman to bless Egypt for 22 years, without any sword and soldiers, and made a great contribution. ”
Kirk muttered for a while: "But in the American drama, she is obviously a sexy and hot, male-unhappy witch??? Could it be that Cleopatra's ugliness is also a sin made by the space virus? ”
As soon as she said this, Cleopatra's maid came running: "Your Majesty Cleopatra has summoned you. ”
Kirk enters the golden seat of Cleopatra, a palatial palace on a carriage, dressed in a light tulle garment, sitting in a carriage with a hint of sadness in her beautiful eyes.
"We've been gone for two days, has your master Caesar heard back?" Cleopatra gets straight to the point.
Kirk did not dare to deceive: "Your Majesty Pharaoh, it is a pity that I have not received any written reply from Caesar. ”
A trace of sorrow rose on Cleopatra's brow: "It seems that perhaps the great conqueror does not intend to be on my side. ”
Kirk smiled bitterly: "Maybe it's just that the carrier pigeon is lost, maybe Caesar is too busy, and I hope to talk about it after meeting you in person???"
Cleopatra exclaimed, "Didn't he even have time to write a letter to a pharaoh?" ”
She immediately realized that she was emotional, and wept: "I'm sorry, Master Qianfu, I was too emotional, please don't tell Your Excellency Caesar about my gaffe." ”
Kirk's heart couldn't help but soften, speaking of which, he had seen countless stunning beautiful women, most of which were all laughed at by him into the [Soul Stone], peony roses, beautiful and beautiful, fairy and witch, let you pick up, delicate carcass, enjoy it at will. Even if this Cleopatra has peerless beauty, if she is high-minded and commanding, Kirk will not take care of her, after all, she has seen a lot of beauties and has high immunity. But Cleopatra now looks pitiful and frightened, which makes Kirk a little soft-hearted. Although her face is far less upside-down than the legend suggests, Kirk's attitude is impressed.
