Chapter 52: Quiet and Eerie
"Activate and use the Eye of Horus?"
"Did I hear me right?"
"This is a stone, do you think it's really the eye that was plucked out of Horus's eye socket in mythology?"
After the words of the Egyptian Minister of the Interior Shreif, the first reaction of most experts was that the minister had paranoia, and he would actually think that the Eye of Horus created by the ancient Egyptians was the Eye of Horus with mysterious powers in mythology.
Yes, we admit that the ancient Egyptians were very powerful and built such an amazing structure as the pyramids without modern construction machinery.
But wake up, ancient Egypt is over.
However, there were also a small number of experts whose faces changed, and the gaze that looked at the Eye of Horus was completely different.
Before the appearance of the main god of the Emperor of the East and the Norse serpent Jerungad, the experts who studied mythology and folklore were almost the ones who were at the bottom of the academic system, after all, folklore and mythology were only a supplement to history.
However, after the appearance of the main god of the Eastern Heavenly Palace, the Norse serpent Jörmungad, the god is no longer regarded by the higher levels as a false idol imagined by the ancients, but is now regarded as a great existence that is real and has run through the entire history of human development.
In this way, the status of experts in the study of mythology and folklore has risen.
This change in status may not have been noticed by those who are not well-known, but they are among the top experts in the field of folklore and mythology in their respective countries.
The president, who had previously only been seen on television, suddenly invited himself to meet and listened to their cordial greetings and hopes that he would give advice on transcendent mythology.
They suddenly had a feeling that they were ...... favored.
At the same time, many things that were secret to ordinary people were also opened to them, the main god of the Heavenly Palace appeared in Dongying to save Heijokyo, and the transcendent appeared in Northern Europe to kill the great snake Jörmungad, which invaded Iceland, and this is a top-secret file for them to know.
It turns out that there really is a god in this world.
The folklore myths they study are not at all a dispensable supplement to history, what they study is the real history.
Shreif took in the situation in front of him without moving, and sighed in his heart, "The situation is not optimistic." ”
The news media said that the Eye of Horus was excavated only two days ago, but it was just a smoke bomb they released, and the real Eye of Horus had already been obtained by them half a month ago.
After obtaining the Eye of Horus, they began to do targeted research, but there was no progress at all, as if it were an ordinary object made by an ancient Egyptian.
But...... The Eight Mirrors are real, the Sword of Vengeance Vlagrad is real, the God-killing Spear Longinus is real, and the Eternal Spear Kungunir is real, so there's no reason why our Egyptian Eye of Horus is fake.
Egypt is one of the four ancient civilizations, and our mythology runs through the history of civilization.
Therefore, the Eye of Horus must not be an ordinary item, the reason why we have no way to activate and use it is completely because our method is wrong, as long as we find the right way, we Egypt can rise strongly.
"All of our colleagues in the Egyptian Ministry of the Interior will be at the service of gentlemen and ladies, and you can ask for anything but to leave here, and our Ministry of the Interior will do everything in its power to accommodate your requests. ”
Shreif folded his legs and bowed.
It would be irrational to extend an invitation to an internationally renowned expert in folklore and mythology, and the more people who know, the easier it is to leak secrets, but who has let their intelligence system infiltrate into a sieve?
The Egyptian government received the information about the Eye of Horus and was immediately passed on by the agents, and the eyes of the governments immediately noticed their small country in Africa.
Protests, threats, calls for joint research and common progress, and so on, diplomatic documents have hardly stopped in the past half a month, and the tone of the documents is getting tougher day by day, and their Ministry of the Interior is a little unable to bear it.
For a piece of Eye of Horus, which may not be able to be activated and mastered, to go to war with the main countries on the Blue Star, this pot is too big for him to carry on his back.
And science doesn't seem to be able to activate and master the use of the Eye of Horus, so why not try to start with folklore mythology?
"Good luck with your research. ”
After finishing speaking, ignoring the experts and professors whose faces had become ugly, Shreif called the adjutantant, "Go, transfer the entry files of those Mi people." ”
Soon, the adjutant sent the entry file.
After reading the information on the file, Shreif sighed, "A folklore and mythology expert who is only a little famous in the world has a team of security guards to escort him, when did the people of the United States pay so much attention to experts in the field of folklore and mythology? Moreover, what is going on with the customs, why did they let them enter?"
“...... Keep an eye on those Mi people and don't let them get close to the Eye of Horus. ”
After saying that, he realized that just keeping an eye on the people of the United States was not enough insurance, so he changed his words and said: "No, it's better to find an excuse to detain them." ”
When Shreif asked the mercenaries to be imprisoned, the mercenaries looked at each other and exchanged opinions silently.
"I've seen the Eye of Horus, are the preparations done over there?"
"The preparations are ready to go. ”
"Let's do it. ”
"Wait, what's that. ”
The mercenaries all looked out of the stone room.
The gray mist from nowhere took over the hall, and the colors of the murals and reliefs became dark under the filter of the gray mist, as if a vague figure with shadows was silently doing something that the relief mural could not carve into in the mist.
The sun, which should have been vibrant, suddenly slipped away, the ground seeped with graystone-colored water, and the dry ground became cool and damp, and the guards standing in the hall stood there one by one, quiet like the reliefs and murals carved on them, still retaining the same action they had done before.
Looking at such a quiet and eerie scene, the mercenary commander Chalaman felt that the hairs on his body had stood on end, and an ominous feeling welled up in his heart.
