Schrödinger lowered his head and was silent for a long time before replying: "Yes, I didn't pass the test of fate, but I wasn't wiped out in the last judgment, this is the achievement I have in three hundred years of cultivation, although I am still a cat, I have the soul of Best." ”

Amon looked down at her and said, "So you are not an ordinary cat, no cat can be as magical as you, you are the imprisoned Goddess Best." As much as you don't want to hear me mention the name, it's still true. The reason why you can become such a magical cat is still because of the guidance of the Nine Divine Systems, either you will be completely abandoned, or you will still be imprisoned. You don't want to go back to being the goddess of Best, but you haven't given up on the experience that Best once had. ”

There was deep reluctance in Schrödinger's tone: "Osiris once asked me to unleash my soul imprint on him, but I was reluctant. That was the result of my three hundred years of cultivation, and it was impossible not to cherish it, and I was not even willing to expand it, and it was even more difficult to give up. ”

Amon: "Of course, your feelings can be understood, but the achievements you have achieved in 300 years of cultivation are not soul imprints, but the time you have enjoyed for 300 years, the life and power you have enjoyed. Great Goddess Best, please look at the people of this world, what have they left behind in their lives?"

The cat's head lowered: "You're right, if I'm still unwilling, then how should mortals in the world live? I've had enough, I'm the most amazing cat in the world in your eyes, but who understands the pain of such a cat?"

Schrödinger's agony Amun, of course, knew that he was a witness to her soul and had experienced for herself what had happened to her. Amon gently combed the cat's fluff with his fingers and diverted the topic: "You refuse to integrate the soul imprint into the soul of Osiris, but you take the initiative to open it to me. ”

Schrödinger whispered: "This requires my own sincere willingness, otherwise I can't show the imprint of my soul, Osiris, Bell, Nietzsche can't, I only want to choose you." ”

Amon stood up and said, "I have a discovery I want to tell you, maybe you already know it, but I should see it more clearly as a bystander. Let's go to the temple and talk, to the temple that I have built for you. ”

A man and a cat walked out of the house and walked through the manor to the backyard, Amon's manor is too big, the so-called backyard is a garden that can gallop horses, and the temple of the cat god Best was built in the best place. In the afterglow of the falling day, they walked very slowly, and their figures gradually lengthened. As they entered the temple, the last rays of afterglow disappeared from the top of Mount Horeb in the distance.

Amon stood in the center of the temple with his hands behind his back, staring at the statue of Bester on the altar. The statue of the goddess is the head of a cat, covered with long hair like a lion's mane, and under the head is the body of a young girl, which appears to be charming and charming.

Seeing that Amon was so engrossed, Schrödinger asked a little embarrassed, "Who are you looking at, and what are you thinking?"

Amon replied, "I was thinking of the never-ending trial, like an endless river that eventually flows back to its source. It seems to have experienced and witnessed the course of many lives, but I can see it so clearly but I can't move it, and in the end I can't tell whether I forget or give up. I have witnessed it in your soul imprint, and I have been thinking the other day that it may be the course of countless lives in the world, or it may be the life of many lifetimes spent by one person, but there is no difference in the meaning of the two.

After getting through this trial, you are yourself, with an endless source of strength. You are still you now, not other lives in the world, nor the endless course of your past life, you are still the goddess of Best. Your accomplishments are guided by the divine system, and you should still keep the vows you have made. You don't want to be Best, but in fact you are Best, and this is the source of Osiris's ability to seal your soul. The way to unlock the prison is also very simple, which is to give it all up. Only when you don't exist will Best be truly liberated. ”

The cat raised its head, looked at the idol and muttered, "I don't exist anymore?"

Amon didn't dare to look back at her, and sighed softly: "Your achievements far surpass mine, if even you don't know, how can I know the answer?"

The cat shook her head stubbornly: "No, I want you to give me an answer, even if it's just a guess, I want you to say it yourself!"

In fact, Amon had already thought about this answer, but he didn't want to say it. Schrödinger had to ask, and he had to speak: "If you break the seal that imprisons your soul, I don't know where you will go, but I know where you are." Maybe in the future, you will be in the sealing of another life. But at that time, you were no longer the best you are today, and you may be able to confirm, or you may never have the opportunity to get to that point. ”

Schrödinger closed his eyes in the darkness: "I understand, in fact, I should have understood, but I still refused to give up." ”

Amon finally turned around, looked at Schrödinger and said, "You should be able to do it today, you just need an external force to unlock the seal that imprisons the soul." I am this external force, and this is the process of your soul imprinting on me, thank you for telling me the secret of everything you have achieved over the centuries. ”

The cat still didn't open her eyes: "Yes, I can finally let go of this bondage, but I can't bear it when it comes to the end"

Amon asked softly, "What are you reluctant to do, do you want to continue to be the most painful cat in the world?"

Schrödinger finally opened his eyes, and it turned out to be a tearful look: "I can't bear you." ”

Amon didn't know what to say, of course he couldn't bear the cat, and Schrödinger had been accompanying and guiding him since the day he left his hometown. Amon couldn't even imagine what he would have done without Schrödinger, but he finally hardened his heart: "I am also one of your experiences as Best, and the real renunciation includes not only the facts that you don't want to face, but also the things you love, all of which are intertwined and are the seals that imprison the soul." True renunciation is also a renunciation, isn't it? When you can touch the seal that imprisons the soul, you have another kind of reluctance. ”

Schrödinger said in a pitiful tone: "Amon, can you tell me, will you still know me?"

Amon squatted down to touch her, but his hand didn't stretch out, he just bowed his head and said, "Maybe you don't know who you are, maybe you have another background, maybe we've met before, maybe we'll meet again." The soul imprint of Best in this life has unfolded to me, and I can leave another imprint in your soul, and in the future I will recognize you, and you will recognize me. I can't do that with my accomplishments, but the situation between you and me is very special, and I can do it to you.

Schrödinger closed his eyes again when he heard this, and tears slipped from the corners of the cat's eyes, and the goddess finally understood her wish in this world. Amon suddenly felt that something was wrong behind him, the idol on the altar seemed to come to life and had the breath of life, he hurriedly stood up and turned to look, but heard someone behind him say, "Amon, are you looking at me?"

It was really a woman's voice, not from her soul, and he turned to see her again. The cat named Schrödinger had finally become a woman, with the same body as the idol on the altar, but instead of the head of a cat with a lion's mane, she was a pretty woman, with a slightly upturned nose and lovely pink lips.

Amon stepped forward and said, "I finally see you, you have broken free from the seal that imprisons your soul. ”

Schrödinger shook his head slightly: "No, it's not really breaking free, it's just saying goodbye before leaving, I have restored Best's strength, but as long as I use this power, I will leave forever." ”

Amon: "Maybe you don't have to go so quickly. ”

Schrödinger: "There are some things that you still can't understand, I can use the power of the goddess Best, I can help you fulfill your last wish, and it also means that I disappear in this world." But I don't want you to see that, I'll go before I say it. ”

Amon looked at the starlight sprinkled on the threshold of the temple, opened his arms towards Schrödinger and said, "At least for now, it has not yet been announced." ”

...... Before the next day, Schrödinger quietly left. Ah [***] sat in the temple for three days, for the first time in his life, without the existence of the cat, he didn't know what kind of way Schrödinger would use to say goodbye to the world, but he knew that Schrödinger didn't want him to see that scene.

Amon, who has never been depressed in the face of any hardships, has a deep sense of loss and powerlessness at this moment, and Schrödinger's parting is not his parting. There are still many things waiting for Amon in the distance, but he can't lift his spirits, he just wants to sit quietly in the temple alone, as if he has spent hundreds of years.

When Amon finally walked out of the temple three days later, he sent a servant to report to the city-state of Helio that Celia's messenger had arrived, and that he was going to participate in the duel that had been scheduled, and asked the city-state of Helio to relay the news to the royal capital. Amon was only a notice and not an application, because this duel was witnessed by the monarchs of the two countries, and there was no need to consult anyone, including the Pharaoh of Elakht, and if he did not go, he would be ridiculed by the world.

After the servants departed, Amon also departed. He crossed the Ronnie River alone in a small boat without any retinue, and when he reached the other side, he did not tie the boat, and let the boat drift away with the river. Without Schrödinger, without a leather pocket, and without an iron staff, Amon walked empty-handed, hiding the rib of the god of the underworld, and all the important things were in the bones.

Amon didn't dodge, he just walked along the official road in the bright light. When they arrived at the city-state of Helio, they alarmed the lord of the city and the local garrison, and the lords hastened to receive the Imperial General and asked him why he had come alone? Amon calmly replied at the banquet that he was going to participate in the duel known to the world, and took out the letter sent by Celia's messenger.

I see! The general's bearing impressed everyone present, and he went to such a distant place to make an appointment. When Amon set out from the city-state of Helio, the lord of the city sent chariots, horses, and guards to escort him.

The news spread quickly, and as Amon passed through the various city-states, there were grand receptions along the way, like a series of welcome and send-off ceremonies. When Amon arrived at the city-state of the headland, the greeting reached the warmest **.

Lord Rod Dick, Lord of the Cape, personally went to the border of the territory to greet him, and the generals of the An-La Legion lined up to welcome the Grand General, and welcomed Amon to the Cape City-State. Rod Dick is the current commander of the An-La Legion, but his prestige is far from comparable to that of the previous commander Amun, and most of the generals here are old subordinates who have followed Amon from birth to death, treating Amon with the same respect as a god.

Ammon did not make a special trip to say goodbye to anyone, nor did he contact anyone privately, and he even resisted not going to see Mary in Mengfeisi, and his private actions might cause trouble to those concerned. Because of the monotheistic reforms of the new pharaohs, many things in the Eju Empire are very sensitive at present.

Rod Dick sent Amon all the way across the Red Sea, and said that he wanted to accompany Amon to the duel and be a witness on the scene. But Amon resolutely refused this request, and he did not want to bother the city lord.

The topography of the city-state has changed dramatically, and the original Red Headland defense line has been submerged by the Red Sea inserted into the mainland, forming a natural barrier, leaving only a narrow passage at the southernmost point, where the An-La Legion is heavily garrisoned.

When Amon passed through this place, he realized that it was impossible for Moses and the others to walk out of the Divine Domain of the Nine Divine System from the land, because there was only a narrow road here, and it was a heavily defended pass. If the fugitive slaves wanted to leave, they had to try to cross the Red Sea in the north.

At the southern end of the Red Sea, an important town has now been formed, not only a military fortress but also a choke point of the trade route, where people come and go very lively, and the arrival of General Amon is the biggest event in this town, attracting everyone's attention. At the same time that Amon arrived on the south bank of the Chihai Sea, Moses and other clansmen from Duke Town went through a lot of hardships and reached the shore of Chihai a hundred miles away.

...... Starting from the outskirts of the city-state of Helio, passing through the city-state possessions of Bubus, Tanis, and the headlands, Moses and the others walked for half a year. The walk through the mountains and barren valleys, and there were no wagons and animals, so the walk was particularly difficult. The messengers sent by Seth hindered them in every way, and they were met with terrible storms and huge hailstones falling from the sky on their way. The locusts had eaten up all the leaves in the mountains they passed, and the animals fled far away, leaving them without food.

Moses overcame many obstacles with the help of the Twelve Judges, armed with the Iron Staff, and Medanzo and Link secretly used various means to deal with Seth's messengers. When the ragged tribesmen finally reached the shore of Chihai, they could no longer walk. Link instructed Moses to lead his people to harvest timber and quietly build ships in the valley by the sea, intending to escape across the sea at night.

But for many days in a row, the red sea was high and the waves were strong, and they had no way to cross it, so they could only stay in the valley and wait. Medanzo and Link couldn't help it in a hurry, they had already made an agreement with Seth's envoys in secret a few times, and no one could directly intervene.

But the ship had already been built, and the wind and waves on the Red Sea could not stop forever, and the messengers sent by Seth did not make Moses and others give up their faith by all means. If Moses had crossed the Red Sea, he left the realm of the Nine Divine Systems. But at this moment, something that Amon had feared for a long time finally happened.

...... While Amon passed through the southernmost land passage of the Red Sea, Rod Dick hurried back to the main city of the headland in a hurry, because the city-state had a distinguished guest, Prince Snake of the Eju Empire.

This prince was the eldest son of the former pharaoh Lassis II and the elder brother of the current pharaoh Elakht. Snake's arrival in the city-state of the headland is said to be on an important mission, and with orders from His Majesty the Pharaoh, Rod Dick should cooperate with all his might. As for what this mission is, Rod Dick has no right to ask.

In fact, Prince Snake had a discordant relationship with Pharaoh Elahet, as the eldest son of Lasis II, he failed to inherit the throne, and he also had his own factional power and vast territory in the country, and he was not obedient to Elahet. But this time, in the name of the oracle, Elakht ordered Prince Snake to rush to the city-state of the headland.

This oracle was sent directly by the archangel of Seth to the priests of the main temple of the Empire, ordering the Pharaoh to prevent the Grand Admiral Amon from leaving the territory of Egü. As for how to stop it, it was up to Snake to figure out a way by himself, and if he couldn't do it, he caught up with Amon and read the oracle in front of him. But before that, it was not easy to make it public, and it was best to persuade the general to come back by gentle means.

As soon as Amon left, Prince Snake rushed to the main city of the headland, and when he heard that the general had passed, he immediately sent a magician to chase after him on a shuttle, saying that there was an important matter to discuss, and let General Amon and the city lord of Dick ride back to the main city on fast horses.

Rod Dick was ordered to go back immediately, but Amon did not go to see Prince Snake. He told Rod Dick: "Once I have set foot on this path, I will not turn back, and this duel is witnessed by the Pharaoh, and it is a matter of glory and promise of a warrior that cannot be repented of." Whatever happens to His Royal Highness, I'll talk about it later!"

Rod Dirk had no choice but to take Amun unless he let the garrison of the An-La Legion take Amon and escort him back to the city-state, but how could Rod Dick give such an order? Moreover, Prince Snake did not say anything specific, so Rod Dick had to go back and tell the prince that General Amon refused to come to see him and had already continued to set off.

When Snake heard Rod Dick's return, he realized that something was wrong, and it seemed that General Amon wanted to leave Eju. Because before that, Amon had sent all his cronies away, and the people who had become slaves had already fled. In this way, it is really necessary to forcibly keep him.

Prince Snake planned to set out with his army at dawn the next day to catch up with Amun, and that night, the priests in the temple of the headland were again guided by an angelic oracle. The fugitive slaves that Pharaoh had ordered the whole country to want were finally found, and they were quietly building a boat and preparing to cross the sea in a valley on the shores of the Red Sea.

This was the last resort of Hequet and the others, directly directing the pursuers to arrest Moses and his party, who were currently in a Jedi and could no longer hide if their whereabouts were exposed.
