The Devil's Banquet
The Plague was preparing to contact the U.S. ship, and as a result, received a video communication from the Chief.
"Plague, I heard that the Pharaoh has made up the idea of nuclear weapons," said the Governor
"Yes, I've just sent the magicians going......"
"Already gone?" the governor was slightly surprised, "I was just about to tell you that the United Nations is preparing negotiations with the Pharaoh to see if there is room for dΓ©tente."
"Negotiating?" the plague was stunned, "Chief, how can we negotiate with the aliens?
"The relationship between states is flexible, and it is also an indisputable fact that the pharaoh has taken control of Egypt, after all, he was also the king of Egypt, and he must have considered it. Taking a step back, now that the war is heating up, we may be at a disadvantage if we go head-to-head, but if we start peace talks, we will have time to be more prepared. β
"I see. "This is a multi-pronged delay, one to slacken the Pharaoh's spirits, to buy us time, and to possibly achieve unexpected miracles." β
"It's good to get it. β
"I'm going to call the translators back now......" said the plague
Seeing that the magician had killed several of his men in an instant, the Pharaoh was gearing up and preparing to take matters into his own hands.
One of the "Pharaohs," a secretary came up with a laptop and said, "We have just received a request from the United Nations for peace talks."
"Peace talks?" the Pharaoh frowned.
"They say that as a wise monarch, you will make an informed decision about the future of Egypt. The secretary pandered
The Pharaoh looked at the nuke, then at the magician, and said, "Ask them first, since they are preparing for peace talks, what are you going to do with a very skilled female agent?"
"I've checked with them. The secretary said, "They said that as long as you accept the peace talks, all acts of force will be stopped immediately." β
The Pharaoh smiled slyly. "Tell them it's an interesting offer and I'm going to accept it. In addition, "the Pharaoh thought of something, "Let their agents stay, and I will invite them to afternoon tea......"
With a whistling sound, a half-metal dragon flew down from the sky. The translator on the dragon whistled, and the magician shifted to the translator's back.
"Pharaoh said he wanted to invite us to tea and snacks," said ......the translator
"It's not impossible, tell him that we'll pick the place!" the magician touched the bow tie at the neckline with his hand.
After reaching an agreement with the Pharaoh, the magician and the translator donned the elegant ancient Egyptian costumes and went to the Pharaoh's feast.
According to custom, the banquet of the ancient Egyptians usually began in the afternoon, and it is very appropriate to say that it is afternoon tea.
In the ancient hall with golden walls, the walls are painted with various ancient Egyptian human frescoes, and the figures of Chunik and Roinkros are moving. The hall is filled with fine essential oils and balms, and the fragrance is bursting.
An orchestra of harps, lyres, lutes, etc., play the pharaoh's favorite music, and next to the band, almost naked models pose beside the statues.
Seating is based on social status. The guest who sits on the chair has the higher status, followed by the guest who sits on the stool, and the guest with the lowest status sits on the floor. Officials, retinues, slaves...... The pharaoh did his best to restore every detail of the ancient Egyptian banquet.
Dim sum, barbecue, red wine, and staggered bargaining, dignitaries and nobles talk about wine.
When the Pharaoh saw the sexyly dressed translators and magicians coming, he stepped down from his throne and personally performed ancient Egyptian rituals on them.
The atmosphere of the scene was inadvertent, and the translators who were careful everywhere couldn't help but be moved.
"Are you both satisfied with all this?" said the Pharaoh with a smile.
"Very impressed," says the translator
"To be honest, the first impression I had was very strong. The Pharaoh said, "Please come with me," said the Pharaoh, as he brought the two interpreters to the seat closest to the throne, "Please!"
As soon as the two of them sat down, the pharaoh clapped his hands gently, and then the band immediately began to change the repertoire, an ancient Egyptian song with a long history. The music is sometimes light, sometimes mysterious, full of Egyptian musical characteristics, and has a special feeling.
After enjoying himself, the pharaoh took a glass of wine and nodded to the translator.
"Your Majesty!" the interpreter raised his glass, "Before we come, let us tell you that you have agreed to the peace talks, and that there will be negotiators to discuss relevant matters with you soon." At first, I was not optimistic about negotiations, but seeing His Majesty's royal demeanor, I felt that His Majesty was not like a vicious demon, as long as His Majesty was calm. I believe that the peace talks will open a door for us. β
"Matter," Pharaoh put down his glass, "I have only one request, you give Moses to me, and I may strike immediately." β
"Moses?" the magician looked surprised, "which Moses?"
"Are you talking about the prophet Moses?" the translator asked rhetorically
"Oh my God, he's been dead for over 3,000 years. The magician said
"Nonsense. Pharaoh threw the glass and spilled it on the ground, "Moses is not dead!"
"Your Majesty. The translator explained, "When you had been trapped in the desert for more than forty years, he himself died before he left the desert, and only Natach was left ......."
"Lies!" roared the Pharaoh, "Moses did not die, I know that he met the celestials, and the celestials saved him." I can feel it until now, he's there......"
"Your Majesty, I don't know what you mean by celestials, but I only know that according to our history, Moses has been dead for more than 3,000 years, and this is an unchangeable fact. The translator continued
The Pharaoh wanted to argue again, but he suddenly changed his tone and said, "Forget it, I'm tired, let's talk about this later." Drink this cup first, and I told the minions to prepare for a gladiatorial fight."
Soon, two masked women, each with a sword and shield, stood in the middle of the hall. With the order of one day, the beautifully dressed women began to fight each other.
"Ahh
The opponent's shield trembled slightly, and then immediately returned a sword.
...... When the two sides did not cut each other much, one of them showed a flaw and was knocked off his shield by the other party. The winner walked up to the loser and held the loser by the neck with his sword.
The pharaoh ate a grape satisfied, and then made a wiping motion under his neck with his index finger. The blade of the victor slit the neck of the defeated in full view of everyone.
When the magician and the others found out, it was too late, and the young woman who was the loser fell to the fountain of blood.
The magician looked at it with a wave of disgust. The translator stood up and said, "Your Majesty, let me ask again, is it necessary for Moses?"
"What a beauty," the pharaoh looked at the dead lying in pools of blood in the hall. "Do you know why she died, why do you know why I am here after Moses? It's not that I want to or don't want to, it's like fate, it's like the will of the gods of Egypt......"
"He must be a madman. On the way back, the magician sat on the translator's back and kept vomiting, "At first, I saw that he behaved quite like a king, but he thought of killing people at every turn, and Moses Moses kept talking, crazy, perverted......"
The translator said, "You say that he has been talking about heaven and man, and that Moses is really alive, right?"
"You're not. The magician patted the translator on the shoulder, "Even you're starting to get nervous with him." He is still alive, that is, good people do not live long, and bad people live for thousands of years. β
The translator shook his head, patted the dragon's head, and flew away on the dragon statue of the Shenlong Helicarrier.
