Chapter Ninety-Six: The Ancient Truth

The behemoth is undergoing some kind of change, the inner transformation is vague and inexplicable, but the external mutation is shocking. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The big cat is changing from a male lion to a female lion, with slender and feminine curves, and the gold ornaments on her head and neck becoming feminine.

It went from being a pharaoh to a queen.

"You've ruined my game!

"Please be quiet, the Countess is having an important meeting over there. ”

......

The thunderous roar of the behemoth was nothing in this environment.

The sand thieves' siege weapons were constantly pouring boulders down on the tiny dune, and each stone projectile hit the mage's propped up protection with a loud bang, like the sea in a thunderstorm, and the sudden thunderbolt in the roar of the frenzy.

But the world around Thoth is quiet.

"I know you want to ask a question," the baboon's face was apologetic, and there was a mild helplessness, "I'd be happy to tell you the answer, but I'm afraid you won't understand." ”

The countess looked up at the god's face, a baboon face she was all too familiar with, Helen had looked at the corpse carefully countless times, looking for a possible clue, but when the god came back to life, he looked so strange.

"And now?"

It was the countess who spoke this, but it was not her, but something more ancient and inhuman about her.

"Ah," the baboon nodded slightly, his tall figure looking like a tall statue to the countess, "an ancient being I have never seen before." ”

The god lowered his head to take a closer look at the faint blue of the countess's eyes, and then began to speak.

"I've heard your question, so here's my answer. ”

"In the beginning, the world was a lotus bud that had not yet opened, floating on the endless waters, and the universe was a dark dead silence.

Then the lotus flower bloomed, and Emunkai was born.

Heaven and earth parted, the great Nile began to flow, the gods were born in darkness, and the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth.

But at that time, there were no humans between heaven and earth, and the gods enjoyed wisdom in solitude, proudly participating in the endless war that protected the world. That's closer to slaughter, because the gods never fail, no matter how powerful the enemy they face.

Then the ancestors of humanity appeared, and on that day, both the gods and the enemies of wisdom, they realized that a new force had emerged in this war.

But the newborn humans were still too vulnerable, and the gods drove them away in the heavens with sunlight and sandstorms, guiding them in the direction the gods wanted.

In this way, tens of thousands of years passed, and the gods finally saw the dawn of victory, and humanity seemed to be about to mature.

Then the thing you want to know the truth happens.

That changed the whole world, and the history of the gods.

Ancient gods appeared, far more powerful and ancient than the living gods, and although they had fallen into eternal sleep since ancient times, this terrifying being still looked down on this small world, casting their shadows over the earth, enveloping the small gods and mortals.

It was a catastrophe, and the gods, believing that their fathers were long gone, did not change their plans, and they lived in the glorious palaces built by mortals in the service of mortals, celebrating their victory.

But the mighty ancient gods are long gone, their enemies have remained, and disaster has struck. ”

Thoth raised his head and looked into the distance, letting out a silent sigh.

The countess was silent along with the gods, but when time passed, she reluctantly realized that Thoth's story was over.

"That's what it is...... All?"

"I don't know how much you understand, but that's all I know, if it's Amun, the god of the sun, or Osiris......" A complicated shadow flashed through Thoth's expression, "they might know more." And I'm ...... Before, nothing was even known about any of this. ”

"What I do know is that about 10,000 years ago, there was a change that affected the whole world, and that led to a very complex series of changes......"

"Yes, that's the return of the Old Gods," both Thoth and the Countess felt that they were almost talking to themselves, but the two of them continued stubbornly, "The gods of the sky, the gods of the earth, the god-kings, those powerful old gods have not shown their form, but the traces of their power in the universe are deep and long-lasting, and now this little world called Emanchet, everything on it has been changed in an instant. ”

"Yes......" the countess tried to phrase herself more precisely, "I just want to know what that change is. We know that that change may have involved very deep cosmic properties, otherwise the impact could not have been so widespread and far-reaching......"

"The level of change is deeper than you can comprehend. With a wry smile on Thoth's face, he reluctantly realized one thing, that is, the countess did not fail to understand what he meant, but was unwilling to accept it, "Of course this is also my problem, the truth should always be understood by anyone, but I know far from enough......"

"And who might know?"

"Amun, the sun god. ”

Isis suddenly joins their conversation, and the weakness of the goddess is palpable, and far beyond what was expected.

"I murdered the sun god and got his memory, and there is a vision of the return of the old gods......"

It was as if a curse had been hooked, and Isis, who was already too weak to be weaker, became even more emaciated, even making people feel that she would dissipate in the wind in the next second.

"I couldn't comprehend what had happened, the memories caused my magic to spiral out of control, leaving me with only fragments. I couldn't understand that fragment at all, when I could describe it to you. ”

The countess was silent for a moment, then nodded.

So Isis began to narrate: "The universe is an endless ocean of light, and our world, Emenchet, is a crystal ball suspended in the sea, and the sun god is standing in the light, overlooking Emenchet.

Then a wave of blackness appeared, without warning, for no reason, and erupted from the inside of the crystal ball, dyeing the world a strange earthy yellow......"

The goddess was silent, and then Thoth nodded slowly.

"Yes, this is only one part of this memory, if there is more, you will forget. ”

"What?"

"Memories are the same for mortals and gods alike, clear for long, vague for long, forgetting may be different at different speeds, but it must be forgotten in the end. And this memory is too clear. ”

"And it's a memory that won't be blurred. ”
