Chapter 58: The Plains of Mesopotamia
The night passed quickly.
This night, the newly promoted breakthrough Fang Di slaughtered amazingly, killing several masters of both sides of the two chasing soldiers, and finally tore a gap in the encirclement, broke through the encirclement head-on, and still moved towards the east.
It was the combat power displayed by the servant Fang Di that made the pursuers on both sides dumbfounded and shocked.
In the morning light of dawn.
At the top of a sand dune, there stands an outstanding figure. He looks less than forty years old, but there is a sense of precipitation in his eyes that can only be left after the baptism of time, which is extremely deep and cold, giving people an indescribable strong oppressive force.
This man was tall and sturdy, as burly as a demon god, with an imposing bearing and a calm demeanor, as if nothing in the world could move him in the slightest.
He was dressed in a standard sacrificial attire, dressed in moon-white priestly robes, and wore a golden hair ornament like an eagle's wings, with feathers flying diagonally above his head.
What makes people pay special attention is that on his forehead, it is like a crescent-like mark that grows naturally, and it is like a blood-red narrow eye, which hides a terrifying power.
He is the number one person under the high priest of the sacrificial court, the god priest Gana, and the leader of the sacrificial court came out to recover Fang Di this time.
Legend has it that the blood mark on his forehead was given by the moon god and had unimaginable powers.
At this time, he stood at the top of the low hill, carrying one hand on his back, looking at the sun rising in the sky in the distance.
Behind him, a figure suddenly flashed out of thin air, turning from a mist into a human form, casting an awe-inspiring look at Rigana, not daring to look directly, and whispered:
"Last night two of us lost contact with each other, and the bodies were not found, and they disappeared without a trace, and they died for some unknown reason. ”
He didn't respond immediately, he seemed to be intoxicated by the splendor of watching the rising sun, the scorching sun that was difficult for ordinary people to look at directly, had no effect in his eyes.
After a long time, he said in a cold and flat voice:
"My battle with the evil witch has given Fang Di the opportunity to grow and maneuver, so that he continues to make breakthroughs in his cultivation, and now he actually has the ability to stop and kill the divine envoy, such a rapid increase in strength proves that my judgment is correct, there must be a great secret in him. ”
He added: "I sensed the surge of the pure power of the underworld last night, as if there was some kind of underworld species that appeared on the earth across time and space, and the two divine envoys of last night disappeared after that. It can be inferred from this that after Fang Di made a breakthrough in his cultivation, he broke the practice of the sacrificial courtyard for hundreds of years that no one could communicate and summon the underworld species, and successfully summoned the undead to be born. ”
The horror of this Shogana can be seen in just a few words. His judgment of last night's situation was as accurate as it could see, and this analytical ability alone was enough to make people feel intimidated.
The next moment, Yan Gana said in a deep voice:
"You go down! I have sent out a psychic sense, calling the Demon Eagle to come here, and when the Demon Eagle comes, there will be no possibility of hiding Fang Di's traces, and I will personally capture him at that time. ”
At the same moment, in a parallel direction more than a hundred miles away, the team under the command of the evil witch was also shocked by Fang Di's combat effectiveness displayed last night, and everyone regrouped and was about to start sparing no effort to chase down Fang Di and retrieve the Scepter of Horus.
For a moment, the form became tense again.
In the following days, the battle between Fang Di and the pursuers became more and more intense, with his soaring cultivation and the terrifying ability to summon the undead, he contacted and fought with the other party during the day, and drove the undead to attack at night.
It was only in the last few days that Fang Di had noticed that the frequency of the accelerated attacks of his pursuers had slowed down considerably, which was quite unusual compared to the scene they had been rushing to hunt him down for days, like the calm before the storm.
After thinking about it, Fang Di realized that it must be the injuries of the leaders of the chasing army, Ugana and the evil witch, who were close to recovering, and I am afraid that in the near future, these two will attack in person.
This can reasonably explain the reason why the two pursuers have not continued to increase the intensity of their pursuits.
Fang Di secretly thought that since the chasing soldiers were not in a hurry, it was better to take advantage of the situation to hurry. Immediately full speed ahead, straight to the east.
In the time that followed, Fang Di drove the flow of the underworld at night, turning into a shadow creature and drifting quickly, and during the day, he galloped like a fierce horse, burying his head in the road.
His speed at this time, it is really like a thousand miles of good horses, its speed is like flying, although it is not as exaggerated as traveling thousands of miles a day, but the strength in the body is matched with heaven and earth, the cycle is endless, after galloping all day, it only takes less than two hours of rest to recover, so a few days, has walked out of thousands of miles.
The terrain under his feet changed, gradually becoming fertile, the desert decreased, and the greenery increased.
Calculating the time, about two months have passed since Fang Di left Egypt.
Fang Di estimated the distance, from Egypt to ancient China, there was about six or seven thousand kilometers of straight-line distance, and he walked all the way, pulling mountains and wading along the way, at this time he should have already crossed the Kuwait region in later generations.
Most likely, it is located in the valley of the Two Rivers, known as the Mesopotamian Plain, historically known as the Mesopotamian Plain, between the Tigris and Euphrates, which later became the borders of Iraq.
It was first inhabited by the Sumerians and later replaced by the ancient Babylonian civilization founded by the Semites (later Jews and Arabs).
At this point in time, during the period when the Semites ruled the region, their relations with Egypt were not harmonious.
The rest of the news about this area, Fang Di knows very little.
Thinking that he was in the source of the earliest human civilization, Fang Di's heart swelled with strange feelings, but unfortunately he couldn't stop, wandering here, feeling quite regretful in his heart.
When night fell, Fang Di came to a magnificent river.
The river was as vast and majestic as the Nile in ancient Egypt, and he knew that it was most likely the Euphrates River flowing through Iraq.
He plunged into the water and walked across the river with his breath held under the water.
During the period, there was no danger or danger, and after landing, he rested a little before continuing to hurry.
When the evening came, Fang Di stopped moving forward, and after thinking about it for a while, he was so bold that he walked back, ready to attack the pursuers behind him.
Fang Di disappeared and returned for a hundred miles, when suddenly his ears fluttered, and he heard the sound of fierce fighting from the road ahead, and he was very surprised and quietly leaned over.
After approaching, Fang Di crouched on a low hill and looked towards the place where the sound of fighting came from.
One of the two sides of the battle was one of the combined forces of Morius and Munasa, who were chasing Fang Di along the way, consisting of nearly twenty people.
And what they were besieging at this time was a beautiful young woman, with brown and black hair hanging like a brocade, free and freehand, white and tender skin and elegant and simple linen long skirt complemented each other, and her flower-like face was more prominent.
What is particularly striking is the woman's deep eyes, the same color as her hair, which when they flicker, show a calm and wise glow.
This woman is very skillful, although she is encircled, but between the flashes and movements, it seems that she is only a little below the master of Fang Di's level, which shows that she is extraordinary.
There were many of the woman's retinue guards on the ground, who had been killed.
Fang Di was puzzled, secretly wondering how this group of pursuers could make an extraneous branch and suddenly intercept and kill a woman here.
The next moment, one of the pursuers was heard shouting: "Stern Heleroyue (hereinafter referred to as Helrouyue), hehe! If you are captured, your people will be willing to pay a lot of money to ransom you, and His Highness Maureus will be very happy." ”
Only then did Fang Di realize that this woman named Helrouyue was probably the current ruler of the Two Rivers Valley and an important figure among the Semites. The pursuers apparently spotted her traces temporarily, so they moved to arrest her.
Fang Di didn't have the idea of deliberately going to the hero to save the beauty, but since he could destroy the plan of the pursuers, he was very willing to do it.
Immediately, there was a long roar, and a tiger rushed out.
Fang Di's appearance, the attention of the pursuers immediately shifted in an uproar, and Hele Rouyue, who was originally besieged, saw the opportunity very quickly, turned her head and glanced at Fang Di, who appeared, chuckled, took the opportunity to retreat, and disappeared in an instant.
Seeing that he had successfully sabotaged the pursuers' plan to capture Helrouyue, Fang Di also shook a shot, and as soon as he made a slight contact with the pursuers, he opened his mouth and roared, and his voice rolled like thunder, and he turned away in a blink of an eye.
The pursuers were in hot pursuit, and for a moment, this place where the previous fierce fighting was uninhabited.
Fang Di galloped along the way, and successfully escaped the pursuers after the whole hour.
For the next few days, he continued eastward.
On this day, Fang Di was running fast, and he felt that he was being monitored. His spiritual power was so strong at this time, he immediately looked up, and found a small black shadow hovering and dancing in the sky thousands of miles away.
Fang Di's eyes instantly sharpened, and he recognized that it was a giant eagle.
This giant eagle Fang Di has seen many times, it is a fierce creature domesticated by the sacrificial institution, and when he first saw it, this giant eagle also tore a sand python on the pyramid construction site.
The appearance of this giant eagle is equivalent to making Fang Di immediately lose the advantage of hiding underground all the way, imagine if he hides underground under the surveillance of this giant eagle's sharp eyes, the consequences can be imagined, and if he doesn't wait for Fang Di to come out again, he must have been found and dug out.
Fang Di's eyes furrowed, this giant eagle appeared, and the pursuers of the sacrificial courtyard would be able to accurately grasp his position, I am afraid that there will be a big battle soon, his mind is shifting, and there is a book of the dead filled with black mist in his hand.
The pages of the book turned, the black mist spread, and the six-winged undead mosquito quietly appeared, and immediately rose into the air to attack the giant eagle.
Who knew that the giant eagle had spirituality, and would never be ruthless when performing monitoring tasks, and when Fang Di summoned the Book of the Undead early, it had already flown diagonally into the distance, and its speed was not a little lower than that of the undead mosquito.
Fang Di knew at first sight that it was impossible to kill this giant eagle with the undead mosquito, so he reluctantly withdrew the floater, and the book of the dead in his hand also turned into a black gas and disappeared.
Fang Di sighed, seeing that the giant eagle had returned, hovering high in the sky, but there was no better way, so he rushed to the ground, preparing to fight for a little more before the big war came.
A few hours later, in the afternoon.
When Fang Di was walking in a undulating mountainous area, he suddenly felt a chill that invaded his heart.
He stopped, turned around and looked back, and in the distance, a majestic figure like a demon god appeared, approaching calmly with a gait.
