Wallette was very busy at the time, and did not arrange this matter immediately, but only ordered the guards to protect the manor, and sent enough food and water to Moses and the others, so that they could wait for a while. Later, when Geret returned to the city-state of Syria, he persuaded Moses to stay, but the frightened Moses refused to stay there any longer, and begged the great magician to send them away safely.

Goret was also helpless, so he had to order his disciple Wallette to personally send Moses and others out of the border to protect them from harm on the road. Before leaving, he asked Moses: "If one day you can return to your homeland, would you still like to come back?"

Without thinking about it, Moses replied, "Is it Duketown? Of course, that's my hometown!" In his concept, the almost isolated town of Duk and the hateful city-state of Syria are completely two worlds, and in the days of being besieged and attacked, his greatest wish in his heart is to return to his hometown and rebuild his homeland, which has become Moses' ideal in life.

Goret said something that Moses did not quite understand: "You will be the rightful heirs of a very important land, and you will probably face a difficult experience wherever you go." Your hometown will come to light, but in a few years, and if you do come back, don't forget what I did today. ”

Moses knelt on the ground and said, "Venerable Great Magician, my people and I will always be grateful to you, and if there is any request in the future, Moses will do his best to meet it." ”

Wallett and his guards escorted Moses and the others through the half-dried swamp and across the desert, all the way to the border of the city-state of Syria. Moses came to the city-state of the headland and sought refuge in Lord Rod Dick. His demands were not high, he only wanted to buy a grange here to live in temporarily, and the miners were also strong young men who could support themselves and return to their hometowns when they had the opportunity to return to their hometowns.

Rod Dick had received a lot of benefits from Mayor Dasty, and the orphans of his old friends begged for a little thing, and he agreed to Moses' request, and even set aside a grange in his own territory for them to live in. But it didn't take long for another accident to happen.

Moses and others came to the headland city-state to seek refuge, and shortly after Amon left the headland city-state, the news could not be hidden, and soon spread to the capital of Eju, and Julian, the great magician who was on the headland, also wrote a secret report to the Eju Academy of Divine Arts and the Pharaoh of Eju. Rod Dick soon received an order from the Pharaoh to send a guard to send the people of Duk Town to the designated place.

Julian knew that Amon was a miner from Duk Town, and that he had been the high priest of the Temple of Isis, so he should have read the "Land of Malduk" and knew a lot about it. It may be out of revenge against Amun, or it may be that he wants to ask Pharaoh for credit, in short, what he said in that secret report should not be a good thing, and the specific situation Moses naturally cannot know.

In this way, Moses was sent to Horebshan, where he and his people were imprisoned as slaves of Pharaoh, and it is said that they were treated as prisoners of war in a foreign land, and they were still engaged in the work of mining sacred stones. Thinking that they were personally escorted by Julian, Julian not only conveyed the Pharaoh's orders, but also privately said that these people were rejected and exiled by the gods, and they would be punished by the gods before they lost their homes.

This was the general experience of Moses and the others, and Amon fell into deep thought after hearing this, and the fate of the people was probably not as simple as Julian's personal revenge on him. Even Rod Dick could not shelter these people, and the Pharaoh directly ordered them to be confined here, probably for other reasons.

Mary once said to Amun, "I should thank you, and I should help you with your affairs, but I don't know how much I can help you." Apparently she knew about it, but there was nothing she could do to help Amon release these people directly.

After the prompting of the goddess Mu Yun, Amon already knew that the area around Duk Town would become a thousand miles of fertile land, and after Schrödinger's prompting, he consulted the myth and legend "The Land of Malduk", knowing that that place was likely to cause contention. He had also met the spirits of Mayor Dasty who had been stranded in Hades, and learned that many of the land in the area around Duk were in Moses' possession.

The Pharaoh had detained the people of Duk Town, perhaps because their skills were very useful, and it was the best place to mine the sacred stone in Horeb Mountain. On the other hand, does it also want to touch the thousands of miles of fertile land in the future strife, and the Eju Divine Art Academy also knows about the changes that will take place in the area of Duke Town? This kind of thing can be said for sure, since the goddess Mu Yun knows, then the gods of Eju may also know, and may have hinted at the people.

Amon was silent for a long time, and then asked quietly: "Moses, I heard that the land deeds in the area of Duke Town are in your hands, is that the case?"

Moses' expression suddenly became alert: "Who did you listen to?"

Amon sighed, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "Don't doubt me, I wasn't ordered to test you, Mayor Dusty told me personally after I left Duk Town. ”

Moses' eyes welled up with tears again: "I did not take the title deeds with me, but they were hidden in a hidden place in the city-state of Syria. My father sent me to the city-state, but he himself died in the flood, and what did he say to you before leaving?"

Amon: "Mayor Dasty wants you and the survivors of Duk to return to their hometowns and rebuild their homes, and I want to ask, are you willing to do that?"

Moses couldn't help nodding, reached out and grabbed Amun's arm and said, "Yes, this is something that everyone and I have dreamed of!" Amun, you are now the patrol envoy of the Temple of Isis, is there a way to save us?"

Amon shook his head helplessly and said, "I am only a small archival guard in the Temple of Isis, and it is impossible for the Pharaoh to change the order to release you. But rest assured, after I left Duk, I heard an oracle that a messenger of the gods would guide you out of Eju and back home. ”

Moses' hand tightened: "Will the messenger of the gods come to Mount Horeb, when?"

Amon patted the back of his hand and said, "Since the gods have made a promise, please wait patiently for the guidance of the oracles." The hopes of those miners are pinned on you, you are their leader, and what you have to do now is to lead your people to live well, and not lose faith and courage. ”

Amon didn't say more to Moses, because he didn't want to cause trouble for himself and his people, some things could not be made public, and it was not good for Moses to know too much too early, and his appearance was just to give the people a hope. After keeping Moses with him for a good lunch, he ordered him to be sent back.

...... Amon stayed in Horeshan for more than ten more days, nominally to recuperate from his injuries, but Blanca and John kept their promise, and the living conditions of the miners in Duk Town improved considerably. This group of people has personally mined at least forty percent of the production of the divine stones here, and they should also be treated better.

As John had promised, as long as Amon didn't take the people away, nothing else mattered, and in the remote part of Horebshan, Blanca and him basically had the final say on everything. Amon took the opportunity to make a small request to move to live near the miners' residence, so that he could talk to his people at any time, and he was very concerned about the situation in his hometown, and he could not finish talking about it.

The simple stone houses in that village were naturally inconvenient for Mr. Envoy to live in, and the nearest was the residence of the magicians who mined the Divine Stone, and Blanca ordered the courtyard of the sorcerer in charge to be given up to Amon for a while.

In fact, Amon didn't need to talk to those miners about anything, after the flood, Duk Town no longer existed, there was really no situation to talk about, he had other plans. He had already figured out the situation in He Lieshan, although there were many samurai and magicians stationed here in turn, but the guards were not very strong.

Deep in the hinterland of Egypt, there is no threat of war in peacetime, and no one will always be nervous. On the other hand, Holie Mountain is a very remote semi-desert area, more than 200 miles away from the Ronny River, there are no villages and towns and residents nearby, no one comes here to make trouble, and it is not easy for people here to escape. Usually the work of mining is very hard, and there is really no need to be too strict in management.

The strength of He Lieshan's guards is not weak, but in terms of personal ability, none of them can compare to Amon, the highest cultivation of divine arts is Blanca, and the highest cultivation of physical skills is John, and the two of them together are not as good as Amon. Amon always has a way to hide what he wants to do, as long as it's not too public.

...... It was late at night, and Moses was lying in bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, still thinking about the scene of his meeting with Amun. The appearance of Amon has brought a glimmer of hope to the clansmen, and the treatment has improved a lot in the past few days, but is what he said true, and there will really be a god to guide them out of the predicament? Moses has been sleepless for three days, and the arrival of Amon has also brought new anxieties and expectations.

At that moment, he suddenly heard a voice in his ear: "Moses, do not be afraid or surprised, for the voice you hear is a guide from the gods." ”

Moses was so frightened that he almost fell out of bed, and looked left and right for a long time, and the room was dark without any shadow, and he sat up excitedly, and was about to speak, but heard the voice say, "Don't speak, you can't communicate with me in this way." Please follow my instructions, put on your clothes and go out, and follow a cloud of fluorescent light up Mount Hore, where I will be waiting for you. ”

Moses only felt that his heart was beating so violently that it was almost about to burst out of his throat, and Amon had said that there would be a god to guide him, could it have appeared so soon? He couldn't believe it but couldn't give up this opportunity, got up, got dressed, gritted his teeth, and walked out of the stone house.

There was a faint glow outside the door, like a lonely firefly flying in the night, and as soon as Moses went out, this light flew away. The night was quiet, so quiet that it was frightening, and even the slightest footsteps seemed to echo, as if there was an invisible person following behind.

Moses was nervous for fear of being discovered by the guards, but the light carried him around the stone houses, and he happened to meet no one, and finally left the small village and walked towards Horebshan. When he reached the foot of the mountain, he looked back, and there were several guards outside the village in the distance, leaning against the base of the wall and dozing, as if they had not noticed him, and then turned and went up the hill with confidence.

The mountain was a little steep, with sparse shrubs growing among the bare rocks, and the glow, which was fast and slow, guided Moses to the top of the mountain by the easiest path. Moses was very excited tonight, and he always felt that there was an invisible force supporting him, and his footsteps flew up and walked very fast.

The moon was bright, and on the top of the hill stood a man with a branch in his hand, and his face could not be seen clearly in his cloak. The light flew up to the top of the mountain and disappeared into his arms, and he opened his mouth to speak to Moses, who was clearly standing in front of him, but his voice was very ethereal as if it came from a long distance: "Moses, child from Duke, please do not be afraid, I am the messenger who guides you!"

Moses felt like he was sleepwalking, he couldn't believe that he had just walked out of the stone house, followed a ball of fluorescent light and reached the top of the mountain safely, and sure enough, he saw the man who spoke!

The man nodded and said, "Yes, since I have guided you to this place to meet me, and I will also guide you and your people back to their hometown in the future, you must not have any doubts in your heart." ”

Moses knelt on the ground for a long time without speaking, his shoulders trembled, and he began to cry silently. Amun, who was wearing a cloak to hide his face and change his voice, asked softly, "What's wrong with you, why do you cry when you see me?"

Moses wept in a low voice, "I am weeping for my fate, and I am weeping for my father, and I am weeping for the town of Duke!

Amun replied, "I made a promise in front of the goddess Muyun that I would guide you and your people back to their homeland and rebuild their homeland. ”

Moses' shoulders shook even more: "I dare not lie before the gods, but I do have doubts in my heart! Where was the Patronus when my father was buried in the flood? Where was the Patronus when my life and my people were threatened? I have no grudge against the Patronus, but I really cannot arouse the reverence in my heart." The world has become so strange to me, and the former patron saint is only like a stranger!"

This child has a surname, although he is only nineteen years old, but with so many hardships, no matter who he is, he will become mature and can't help but think more. He has an opinion about the goddess Mu Yun, and although he has no grudge against this god, he really can't revere it. Amon asked him not to have doubts in his heart, and he said his truest thoughts that had been suppressed for a long time.

Amon didn't have enough time to explain anything to him, and he couldn't explain it clearly, but he had to give Moses a firm hope, so he had to say, "You don't have a grudge against the patronus, it's very rare, when people ask the gods to ask the gods, they first think about what they have done, why do they ask the gods to do something for you? ”

Moses lifted his tear-stained face: "I hope you will give me the only and strongest faith, which is the reason for us to live well in the midst of suffering." Since you are here, you will always guide me?

Amun replied, "My name is Aroha, and when you have doubts in your heart, you can silently recite this name, and my appearance is like the light that leads you to the top of the mountain, and the path is under your own feet." As long as you don't give up your faith, then I won't give up on you, no matter whether there is a patron saint or not, no matter how many hardships there are, I will fulfill my promise. ”

Moses leaned down, kissed the dirt and said, "Your voice is the guidance of the gods, the light that never goes out of the darkness." Can you guide me out of my cage to the top of this mountain, and can you guide my people out of here?"

Amon wanted to sigh but held back, and replied in a calm tone: "I can guide you to come here quietly in the dark night, but it is a desert to walk out of here, and it is impossible for you and so many people to go through the many city-states of Eju when you return to your hometown. ”

Moses asked disappointedly, "Then how can we leave?"

Amon: "Don't give up your faith, be ready from now on and wait for that day to come." ”

Moses: "How should I prepare?"

Amon raised the branch in his hand: "This is the purpose of my summoning you today, the miner skills of Duk Town also contain magical and profound skills, it is the power of two sides of the same body. I want to awaken this power for you, and also to awaken your faith, so that your heart is truly strong. ”

Amon changed his identity to teach Moses the power of two sides of the same body, but he pretended to be a miner in Duk Town, and made Moses swear to keep it secret. This was done in order to convince Moses and to avoid revealing his identity. As for whether Moses can master it, it depends on his luck, and Amon can't force it.

For the next few days, Amun would guide Moses to quietly ascend Mount Horeb every night, holding an iron staff to perform a power awakening ritual for him. The results did not disappoint Amun, and just before he left Mount Horeb, Moses awakened the power of two sides of oneness. Amun made him make a very important vow - "You must not pray to other gods, you must be firm in your faith, I have taught you this power, you cannot learn physical and divine arts like the rest of the world, you must accept my guidance." ”

Amun's teachings involved the secrets of the gods, and according to the old madman's guess, the gods probably did not want it to be circulated. Amun had been to the realm of the Queen of Hades, Erebi, where he could hear the prayers and supplications of the faithful. So Amon didn't allow Moses to pray to other gods, because if he revealed a secret that the gods didn't want to see in the world, it would be good for him or Moses.

When the power of the two sides of the same body was awakened, Moses was completely convinced of Amun, and he immediately fell to the ground and saluted: "I understand that you are the only God in my heart!"
