The death of Lassis II happened in this context, and the cause of his death was kept secret, which has even become a historical mystery. In later myths and folklore, some say that Lasis II died of murder at court, others say that the pharaoh died of the wrath of the gods, and more say that he died with the destruction of the statue of Horus, because he claimed to be the human incarnation of Horus.

These three major events happened on the same day, and the entire Eju Empire seemed to be shrouded in invisible clouds, from the dignitaries to the common people, and the same was true of Mengfeisi, the capital of Eju. When the Holy Maiden relayed the urgent news from all over the country and from the king's capital, only a heavy and nervous panting could be heard in the hall of the temple, and the people were guessing in their hearts all kinds of possibilities, but they did not dare and could not say what they really thought.

After a long time, it was the imperial general Amon who broke the silence and took the lead in asking, "Did the messenger of the royal capital mention the succession of the new pharaoh?"

The holy woman replied, "His Majesty's son Lasis III succeeded to the throne, and the new pharaoh renamed himself Erahet. His Majesty Elakht told the officials of the city-states and their servants to stay in their garrisons and not to go out without permission, and to appease the people in their territory and wait for the latest decrees and oracles. ”

It is not surprising that the new pharaoh succeeded to the throne and asked local officials to pacify the people. If something as important as this happens, it must be in the name of an oracle to quell the panic among the people, and it is wise for the new pharaoh to wait for the latest oracle everywhere. But the name that Lacis III changed for himself is very meaningful, "Elahet" means - the light of Allah and the guardian of Seth.

The new pharaoh added to his title An-La, the father of the oldest of the gods of the Nine Gods, and Seth, the legendary uncle of Horus. In ancient Eju mythology, when Osiris founded the Eju Empire, his younger brother Seth was the guardian of royal power. It is understandable that Pharaoh has such a suffix in his name, but the name of Allah does not mention Horus, which is intriguing.

Amon stopped talking, and thought to himself, could it be that something had happened to the god Horus? He had read the ancient texts hidden in the temple of Isis, the texts that no one had said to have read for two hundred years, and there were two poems about Isis and Allah, and Horus and Seth.

Legend has it that Isis used her wisdom and means to subdue the ancient father of the gods, Allah, and gain his power and status. In another verse, the king of the gods becomes Isis's husband, Osiris, who was also the first pharaoh to establish the Aeju Empire, but his brother Seth killed him and seized the throne. Later, with the help of Isis, Horus defeated Seth and became the god of Eju.

That is to say, there has been a conflict between the gods of the Nine Heavens of Eju, some gods have retreated, the vast Eju Empire has become the god domain of Horus, and the most populous and fertile land of Lower Eju is the god of the goddess Isis, and the underworld where the soul rests is the god of Osiris, and the rest of the gods are subordinate or dependent on them.

If something happens to Horus, whether it is a fall or an injury, the other side of the Nine Celestials who was once the loser is likely to make a comeback. Amon didn't know much about the Divine Domain, but he could still piece together a lot of important information from the words of Goddess Mu Yun.

When Mu Yun disguised himself as a guard to rescue Amon on the battlefield, he said: "Red Cape Town and the mountains on both sides are the boundary of the Divine Domain of the Nine Heavenly Gods of Eju, and it is difficult for me to enter. I was careful enough not to alarm them. ”

Later, Horus appeared in the form of a huge cloud eagle in the sky, and Mu Yun said angrily: "Because I appeared in the war...... So Horus used this as an excuse to perform miracles, trying to change the outcome of this human war with divine power. But I made a move to protect you, and I didn't invade the Divine Domain of the Nine Heavens. Horus did this, although he did not violate the covenant of the gods, but it was despicable, and it also exposed his weakness and fear!"

It seems that there is some kind of agreement between the gods, and there is also some kind of agreement between the different gods, and when this agreement is broken, it can lead to conflict. Although Enqidu died, he slashed the cloud eagle that appeared in the sky with an earth-shattering sword, and this battle may be the fuse of a new conflict.

Enqidu's sword was a declaration that Horus was not as powerful as he thought. And his presence on the battlefield caused the wrath of the goddess Mu Yun, meaning that the war was not only between mortals but also between the gods.

Amon speculated that it was most likely the gods of the Anunnaqi clan who attacked the Nine-Linked Divine Domain, and that Horus, the main god of the Nine-Linked Divine Domain, fell or was seriously injured in the conflict. The appearance of the Red Sea and the severed wings of the statues of Horus in the temples of the city-states may have something to do with it. Then the defeated side of the Nine Divine Sect is likely to take the opportunity to seize the main god position, and the name of the new pharaoh hints at this.

The violent death of the pharaoh may also have something to do with this, and as for how Lassis II died, Amon has no way of knowing the inside story. The sudden death of Lassis II was not a good thing for Amun, which meant that his good intentions for the recent troubles of Meffil were likely in vain. Everything Amon did was largely for the benefit of Lassis II, and now that the new monarch has succeeded to the throne, everything is unknown.

If the truth is as Amun guessed, there was a conflict and a change of status between the nine gods of Eju, which may not be beneficial to Amon himself, and do not forget the title given to him by Lassis II - the great god Horus favors, protects the upper and lower Eju, guards the dignity of the empire, inherits the glory of An-La, and praises the great generals of the nations.

The first title of this title was "Favored by the Great God Horus", and the soldiers and the people believed that Horus was inspired by Amun to appear, which is why Amun received such a noble title. There is also a title that is "Inherit the Glory of Allah", simply because Amun was the commander of the Allah Legion at the time, and the soldiers even referred to the Allah Legion as Amun's Legion.

Amon had sent Medanzo and Link back to the territory and instructed Moses to go to the plain of Duc with the general's warrant, but something happened suddenly. If they hadn't set out yet, they wouldn't have been able to go by now, and if they had already set out, they wouldn't be able to pass through the city-states and border checkpoints, unless they didn't take the official road.

Since Amun sent Medanzo and Link to follow him secretly, it is presumable that these two disciples could understand the changes in the situation in time and guide Moses and the others to take a detour.

Amon did not send someone to chase Moses and the others back, his idea was very clear, Moses and the others could leave, and Medanzo and Link should have the ability to guide them around all obstacles. If they were stopped, they would have been sent back to their territory. Because the general's warrant was issued before the death of Lassis II, it is not a fault that he did not have time to send someone to recover it afterwards.

However, Amon himself had to return to the realm at once according to the orders of the new pharaoh, waiting for a new edict and a new oracle, and as a general of the empire, at such a sensitive moment, any change in his own movement might arouse suspicion from all sides, so he immediately set out with John and Themis Scarlet, and had only time to say goodbye to Mary in public in the temple before leaving.

Amun had a lot of worries in his heart that he couldn't speak, and he saw them in Mary's eyes. Maria is the patron saint of the goddess Isis, and if there is an accident among the gods of the Nine Heavens, the impact on the saint of the temple of Isis is unpredictable. Amon had too many secrets buried deep in his heart, but he couldn't hold back at the moment, and when he left, he sent John to Gabriel to deliver a secret letter, and told Gabriel that he must hand it over to the Holy Maiden.

In the letter, he mentioned his knowledge and speculations about the relationship between the gods and the gods, and reminded Mary to look through a book of psalms written by an ancient bard that he had read. With the wisdom of Mary, he should have known what might happen and what preparations should be made, which was beyond Amun's control.

...... When Lassis II died, it was natural that a state funeral should be held and the whole country mourned, and the new pharaoh would have to give amnesty and celebrate the country on the throne according to the custom, which is not clear whether it is joy or sorrow or a mixture of joy and sorrow.

On the day Amon returned to the realm, the first thing he waited for was not the order of the new pharaoh, but the visit of Blanca, the chief official of Horeshan. Amon asked him in surprise, "Lord Blanca, haven't you received the latest order from the royal capital, how could you leave Holie Mountain and come to me at this time?"

Blanca said with a bitter face, in a pleading tone: "General, I am here for the order of the Pharaoh, and I want to borrow someone from the General to help me!" Amon frowned and said, "Did the Pharaoh order you to borrow someone?

Blanca explained, "It wasn't the Pharaoh who ordered me to borrow people, but I had to borrow people from the Great General for Pharaoh's orders. On the first day of his reign, His Majesty Elahet sent an order to Mount Horeb to send all the sacred stones to the royal capital according to the annual registration, and to transfer all skilled craftsmen to Shilmore, saying that a temple would be built for the god An-La, and that a new capital should be built around it.

Since the miners of Duke Town were taken away by you, the production of Divine Stones in He Lie Mountain has dropped by nearly forty percent, and there are a large number of mined cores piled up there waiting to be taken out. But those magicians can't complete these tasks at all, and now the pharaoh has transferred a large number of craftsmen, and he has to urge the divine stones to be handed over directly to the royal capital according to the original output, I really can't help it! ”

Amon shook his head lightly and said, "They are my people, I finally took them away from He Lie Mountain, how can I send them back again?" I know that your situation is indeed very difficult, but there is nothing the general can help. ”

Blanca stepped forward and said, "I didn't want the general to send them back to He Lie Mountain, I just wanted to ask the general to nod and help. I can send someone to bring the mined core, and then bring back the divine stone that has been taken out. They are your slaves, and I can't let you help in vain, according to the old practice of Duk Town, for every ten divine stones mined, one of them is the payment to the general. ”

This condition was tempting enough, but Amon's brow tightened: "Didn't Pharaoh transfer a large number of craftsmen? Even if my people can take out the divine stone for you, you don't have enough manpower to go to the mine to mine the core." ”

Blanca shook his head and said: "The pharaoh transferred away are all craftsmen who mine stones, and most of the craftsmen who mine the core are still left in He Lie Mountain, I will ask the city-state for help, and I can still deal with it by urgently recruiting a group of people, but the last step of taking out the divine stone from the mine core is difficult, and asking the general for help is the best way." ”

Amon smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that you're late, His Majesty the former Pharaoh once gave me a territory located in the Duk Plain, but I need to send people to occupy and reclaim it myself, I have already sent this batch of slaves there, and now I'm afraid it's already here." According to the latest order, they have to stay in that territory and can't go out, and even if they can rush back, they can't save the near fire. But since Lord Blanca has begged me to come here, I can't let you run in vain, and I will write a letter to the Temple of Isis to reflect your predicament, and ask the Temple to send a group of magicians to support Horeshan. ”

Blanca left disappointed, whether what Amon said was true or not, and he had no right to order the general to do anything, but this trip was not completely in vain, at least Amon promised to help him write to the Temple of Isis for help. After sending Blanca away, Amon felt that something was wrong and fell into deep contemplation.

There are two most important sources of sacred stones in Eju, one is Shermo in Upper Eju, and the other is Mount Holie in Lower Eju. Hilmo was not as inhospitable as Mount Horeb, it was located about six hundred miles north of Monfils, at the confluence of a tributary of the upper reaches of the Ronnie River, and although the vicinity was mountainous, there was a large area of reclaimed land in the valley, so Pharaoh Elakht wanted to build the temple of An-la and a new capital there.

This move also meant a change in the old pattern, and the god An-la was likely to replace Horus in the Empire. If Pharaoh then ordered the construction of temples in the city-states, then Amun's suspicions would have been confirmed. Who became the main god of the Nine Links God System had nothing to do with Amun, he only worried about two things: first, how Mary's identity would change subtly, and what kind of changes would happen, and second, the fate of the people of Dukezhen.

According to the tradition of the Eju Empire, each pharaoh had to build a mausoleum for himself from the time he ascended to the throne, which was a huge undertaking, and Elahet had to build a new capital and a temple to the god An-la at the same time, which required not only a great deal of wealth, but also a gathering of artisans from all over the country. Where is the best craftsman on the continent?

If Pharaoh Elahet ordered them to be recruited, even if those men had already reached the plain of Duk, Amon would have to call them back, and it would not be as simple as dealing with Blanca. Moses and the others were the slaves of the imperial general Amun, which was equal to his private property, and Pharaoh could not take it away at will, but could expropriate it.

The status of slaves can be borrowed and returned like goods, and if these people were "borrowed" by Pharaoh to build a temple or a capital, then they would have to wait until what year and month would they have to return? Especially for work such as building mausoleums, the best craftsmen are often the most difficult to return, and if they can't return, it is reasonable and legal for Pharaoh to compensate Amun for a new batch of slaves. But Amun didn't want slaves, and if that was the case, where would he go to find his people?

Amon immediately called John over, instructed him to do a lot of things alone, and handed John the last Wind Shuttle in his hand and a space magic weapon, and ordered him to go to Medanzo and Link immediately. He said slightly apologetically: "My captain of the guard, you are probably the happiest person in the whole of Egypt these days, although so many big things have happened, it has nothing to do with you, just accompany Themis to be happy." I'm sorry to disturb your happiness, the matter is urgent, you set off secretly so as not to be discovered, go and come back quickly. ”

John hurriedly bowed and said, "O God Amun, why do you speak to me like this? Your will is a command, and I will say hello to Themis and leave." ”

The new pharaoh Elakht had an order that the officials of the territories were not allowed to go out without permission, and it was certainly inconvenient for John to leak the news when he left the territory. Amon gave him a Wind Shuttle, but John, as a great warrior, was able to control the Shuttle because he cultivated the power of two sides of the same body.

Amon is now rich, but precious magic weapons are not so easy to obtain, and he only has three spatial artifacts now: that magical bone, the Wind Charm Dance processed by the old madman, and a space bracelet that Link processed with the Wind Charm Dance. Link gave the bracelet as a gift to Amon, who was particularly adept at crafting all kinds of objects, and the old madman was once the best master craftsman on the continent, and Amon taught him all the teachings he had received from Nietzsche.

Now that something unexpected had happened, Amon sent John to order Medanzo to give the Wind Dance to Moses, embed it in an iron staff to carry the necessary supplies, and gave the space bracelet to Medanzo and Link to use.

Amon had a Crystal Shuttle and two Wind Shuttles, and the Crystal Shuttle and a Wind Shuttle had been given to Medanzo, and now the last Wind Shuttle had been given to John, who no longer had a flying weapon. But Amon already has an eighth-level achievement and can fly instantaneously.

The Remembrance Lamp, the Golem Eye Mirror, and the two sets of Scorpion Shell Armor and the two sets of Snake Scale Armor that had been repaired by Link had already been handed over to Medanzo, which showed that Amon attached great importance to this matter.

After John departed, Amon began to pack his things as well. Of course, a large number of special divine stones obtained from the treasure of Goddess Mu Yun had to be collected, and the most precious artifacts in his hands included a tear of the gods, Gilgamesh's bow, Humbaba's four fangs and a snake tendon, the whip rope that Enriel gave him when he incarnated as a shepherd, and so on.

Before Amon went on a reconnaissance mission on the Plains of Duk, Maria gave him a Pupil of the Earth that recorded the information. Amon now has an eighth-level achievement, but strangely, he still can't see the information recorded in the Pupil of the Earth. He carried them all in the ribs of the god of the underworld. There were many other things in the bones, including a variety of staff and weapons.
