Chapter 250: A Kingdom Buried by History

"Looks like Mr. Rex has been doing a lot since he retired." Akali looked at her notes carefully from the first page.

"The teacher was not only an excellent lawyer, but also very familiar with history, and he also liked to collect historical materials and objects. Elena said.

"I see...... Akali thought for a moment and closed the note. "Speaking of which, Elena, have you read the contents of this notebook?"

"I've only seen a little, Your Highness the Princess. "Elena told the truth. "I watched my teacher study the above thing a few years ago, and it seems to be about the history of a former desert country that disappeared on the continent of Africa......"

"Yes, a country buried under yellow sand, like Atlantis sleeping at the bottom of the sea. Akali said slowly. "Not only your father, but many historians in Europe believe that there was once an ancient country on the banks of the Nile in Africa and Africa, perhaps far older than our European civilization, and it was they who built one pyramid after another in the rolling yellow sand, and later, the climate changed, and the warm and humid Nile became a desert, so the country disappeared and completely became a missing page of history. ”

"And what is the pyramid?" asked Elena. "Such a tall building is rare in Europe today, let alone thousands of years ago, why did they build such a huge building?"

"Mr. Rex seems to have entered a pyramid, only to find some humanoid coffins in the deepest part, with specially treated corpses wrapped in strips of cloth, and in the pyramid there are various traps and traps, all of which do not want to kill the reckless visitors, according to European and Chinese traditions...... The only thing that can happen is the grave. ”

"I see, it seems that the rulers of this country value death very much, so they do not hesitate to spend so much effort to build a magnificent and safe tomb for themselves, so what is their purpose?"

"That's what your father doesn't understand. Akali said. "Mr. Rex couldn't read the ancient texts found in the pyramids, so he didn't know why they valued death so much, and built such a luxurious mausoleum, but one thing was certain...... In the frescoes of the pyramids, there are a large number of images of Anubis, that is, the man with the head of a jackal. ”

"It is said that Anubis is the god of death worshipped by the people of that country, and when everyone dies, Anubis will put his heart and a feather on both sides of the scale, if the heart and the feather are equal or light, the person is good and can go to heaven, if the heart is heavier, it means that the person is extremely sinful and must go to hell, and their ruler is convinced that Anubis can bless their souls from being harmed, and one day return to this world to continue to enjoy glory and wealth. ”

"It's a pity that none of us can recognize the ancient text, although my teacher at that time couldn't recognize the content of these words, but he still rubbed it, hoping to make a breakthrough when he returned to Europe, but unfortunately ......"

"Wait a minute, maybe any of us will recognize this. Akali suddenly thought of something. "Elena, go get Alma, she's from that era, maybe she knows this!"

"yes, I didn't think of that!" said Elena. "Your Highness Princess, I'm going to look for her. ”

Ten minutes later.

"How's it going, Alma?" Akali looked at her expectantly.

Although I can't fully decipher the meaning of this text, I can guess the general meaning. Alma returned the note to Elena. Sure enough, this is the writing that existed in Egypt, the country of Africa, when I was born. ”

"So the country is called Egypt?"

"Yes, although I don't know what Egypt will completely disappear for, but when there is no water source and the farmland has become a desert, the people will naturally not be able to survive. Alma nodded. "According to the text of the pyramids, Anubis, the god of death they worshipped, seems to have been the son of the first leader of Egypt, born with the head of a jackal, and was regarded by the people as a true god......"

"Wait, what are you talking about?!" Akali interrupted Alma's narration. "Why do I think I've heard this story somewhere?"

"Yes, how similar it is to the Minotaur, but I am afraid that this Anubis is not a true god at all, but a monster infected by evil. Alma's eyes were filled with helplessness. "If that's the case, then Galak's purpose is obvious, he is not a lich who works for Anubis, but just a man who has taken his weapon from his grave and thus gained great power, and is delusional that he can resurrect and control the monster. ”

"If you kill one person, you are a sinner, if you kill a hundred, you are a general, if you kill ten thousand people, you are a king, if you kill everyone, you are a god......" Akali suddenly remembered this old saying, and muttered: " In the ancient past, people were powerless to resist all kinds of great threats, so they regarded creatures with great strength as gods, just like the primeval serpent in the past, and Dagon, and now Anubis, in fact, these so-called gods are only creatures more powerful than humans, are there really gods in our world? Or do gods only exist in our hearts?"

"Perhaps I can only convey to you a word that my master, Magdalene, the wife of the Son Jesus, once said to me, Akali. Alma thought for a moment. "She once told me that gods are not a kind of strength, but a kind of faith. ”

"Faith...... Akali seemed to understand something, but when she thought about it, she didn't seem to understand anything. "Elena, what do you think?"

"Eh, me?" said Elena, confused. "Your Royal Highness Princess, in fact, I don't understand such a deep content, for me, as long as I do the current things well, it is enough......"

"That...... Don't care, I'm just talking about it. ”

Akali smiled wryly and scratched her head, turning to the bow of the boat, facing the blue Mediterranean water, but her mind was haunted by the question she had just asked.

"Maybe for Yunhai, he already understood the answer to this kind of question, but if it was Elena, they wouldn't think about it at all, but what is true faith?"

But at that moment, the Roma suddenly stopped in place and began to sway violently.

"What's going on?!"

Akali immediately became alarmed, since the departure of the ship, the ship has been moving smoothly, but this kind of problem happened?

"Your Highness Princess, the Roma suddenly stopped moving, and no matter how hard our sailors tried to paddle, it was to no avail, and the hull of the ship shook so badly that the Viking sailors huddled in their cabins, shouting 'Kraken'. Wallace quickly ran out of the cabin and said.

"Kraken?" Akali's nerves tensed instantly. "But this is the Mediterranean? No, if we look at the time, where are we now...... Oops!"

Akali instantly realized what was happening, this sea area is the most dangerous area in the Mediterranean, the haunt of the legendary giant octopus of the Mediterranean!

"Akali, what's wrong with our ship?" Fluttershy bursts out of the cabin as well.

"Akali, did we encounter a sea monster? I sense a powerful creature nearby. Yunhai's words surprised everyone who felt the shock and ran out.

"As it stands, it looks like this. Akali nodded, and then laid out an emergency response. "Elena, you are responsible for mobilizing the soldiers in the cabin and lining up on the deck, and once the giant octopus appears, we will fight back! Wallace, you go to the bottom warehouse and lead the sailors out of this sea, only if they move, we will not sink the ship on this sea. Chris, Yunhai, the three of us ride our respective mounts, keep watch in the sky, once the sea monster appears, we will beat it hard, and the rest of the people will be guarded separately in various parts of the ship, among which Alma you go to the lookout of the mast, your task is that as long as the tentacles of the sea monster appear, you will cut it off as soon as possible, and you must not give it a chance to destroy our ship!"

Without waiting for everyone to agree, the boat shook even more violently, as if there was some huge force, dragging the bottom of the boat, as if it was going to drag the boat directly into the water.

"Guard your posts!

Akali and Yunhai flew up quickly, and Chris closely watched the sea, and sure enough, looking down at the sea from the air, Yunhai clearly saw that there was a huge shadow underneath the sea.

"Hmph...... Let me reward you with a cloud-piercing slash first!"

Yun Hai had enough strength, and the cloud piercing slash rang out, and the cold sword qi rushed to the sea, drawing a thin cross on the turquoise water, and then disappeared, and then, the huge shadow under the sea seemed to tremble, and after a few seconds, the center of the cross just now, a red liquid gushed out.

"Yunhai, what kind of new skill are you, you can actually kill and injure the sea monster without provoking Hai Lang!"

"This is the eighth form of the Ten Heaven-Breaking Styles, the essence of the rain. Yunhai explained. "My master told me that the so-called falling rain is not a more powerful move, but a sharp move that is restrained and does not show murderous spirit, as the so-called gentleman is like jade, only such a person is a real master. ”

"That means you're a real master now, aren't you?" Akali looked at the sea of clouds with disdain.

"I didn't say anything, ahem, ahem......"
