088, your things fell

088, your stuff fell

A few days before leaving He Lieshan, Amon taught Moses about his future practice and the various tests he would face. These messages obtained from Bell also combine Amon's own confirmation. After all, Bell is different from Amon. He first became a level nine magician, and then strovested from the beginning to cultivate the power of both sides of the body. As a great magician, he actually achieved the achievement of a level six warrior.

Amon started directly from this path under the deliberate training of the old madman without taking detours. The old madman laid the foundation for awakening both sides of the body in the name of teaching him the skills of miners, and Bell's exploration perfected this path. Now when Amon taught Moses again, the cultivation method of level one to six achievements has been clearly confirmed.

Amon did not teach Moses various specific martial arts or divine techniques, but only allowed him to practice pure power and accompany his spiritual growth. On the one hand, it was because the time was too tight and it was too late. On the other hand, with Moses' current situation, it was indeed not convenient to practice specific skills. All of this was secret.

Before leaving, Amon finally ordered: "If you want to finally get out of the predicament, you must first become stronger. Traveling thousands of miles back to your hometown is full of difficulties and challenges. You must be prepared from now on. I teach you everything from miners, from Duke Town, and you can also select trustworthy people among the tribesmen to continue teaching and make the same vow."

The seed has been sown, and it depends on how it sprouts. Amon finally left He Lie Mountain and took the guards to escort the divine stone back to the Temple of Isis to report to the mission, successfully completing the inspection mission. The biggest gain of this trip was to know the whereabouts of the survivors of Duke Town. Maria did not tell him directly, but used this method.

After returning to the Temple of Isis, Maria summoned him again, and in the study, the servants retreated, only the two of them. Without talking about the inspection, Amon knelt down and bowed, "Thank you for your guidance. I have found the surviving descendants of Duke Town! The former mayor has kindness to me. His son Moses is the leader of the group, and he is looking forward to returning to his hometown day and night."

Maria looked at him with a somewhat apologetic look and waved, "You should sit down and talk. I know what you want to ask for. I am really sorry, I cannot order the direct release of those people. They are already Pharaoh's servants, unless there is reason to ask Pharaoh's grace."

After sitting down, Amon asked again: "Is it related to this that you asked me to read those military books?"

Maria nodded: "If you only consider it for you, you can become a great warrior, be loyal to the Eju Empire, and have a good life. In fact, it will be the same no matter where you want to go. You have your own ideals, and it is so difficult to realize this ideal. The Tianshu Continent may have conflicts in the near future. If you want to ask Pharaoh to be sure to release your tribe, unless you can make indelible merits for the empire, so that Pharaoh has to agree to you."

Amon nodded sincerely and said, "Thank you, I understand!"

Maria tactfully pointed out a path to let Amon save his tribe. She reminded that disputes were about to break out on the road to Tianshu. The so-called indelible merits are of course a warrior. If Amon can lead the corps to establish great merits for the empire on the battlefield, when requesting rewards, he could ask the Pharaoh to release the tribesmen of Duke Town, which could not be refused.

It was too difficult to do this. Although Maria was willing to help, everything depends on Amon himself. Being a great warrior was just a start.

Then the two of them were silent again and looked at each other. This time, the summoning was to arrange a long journey. Maria had a lot to explain but felt that there was no need to say anything. Amon had a lot of thanks in his heart, and he felt that there was no need to say it again. Since Maria didn't speak, he would rather just look at her and feel her breath.

Unfortunately, he could not sit here forever and look at her. In the end, Maria spoke and broke the silence: "Amun, no matter how difficult the things you are about to do, I have a wish, hoping that you will cherish yourself. If you have done your best, don't make things difficult with yourself anymore. As long as you are still the pure Amun, you can come back no matter when, and Goddess Isis will protect you."

She put something on the table and said, "This mission was originally planned to send a magician to the quest. This earth's Eye is both a reward for the mission and an artifact that records various information. Later, I changed my mind. In the desert and swamp where monsters are rampant, it is safer to be a warrior who is familiar with the situation, so I decided to send you there.

This Earth Eye is still a reward for the mission. You are not a magician, but you can record information in other ways. This time it is a secret mission, and you cannot use a public identity. Someone will give you a blank certificate and passport. Just write your name and you can also hire a bodyguard to accompany you. There are a few days left to set off. Go back and prepare well. Be careful, and I will wait for the news of your return. As for this Earth Eye, I hope you can treasure it."

The reward of the Saint-Master on behalf of the Temple of Isis was so generous. He gave a Earth Eyes to perform this mission, and the sentence he said in the end was meaningful. It would be reasonable if he sent a magician to it, because the Earth Eyes can become the carrier for recording information, but if Amon still wants to give it like this, it would probably have a deeper meaning.

Amon already has a Earth Eye, and the old madman has recorded various information in it. Maria may not have done so. Amon is just a warrior. Even if there is any divine information in it, Maria knows that he will not be able to see it. But if you think so, you are wrong. Amon is also a level 6 magician, especially good at space divine arts and information divine arts.

Amon felt that some information was recorded in this earth's pupil, but he did not dare to read it in the Temple of Isis, for fear that he would accidentally reveal his secret when using the magic technique, so he had to collect this precious divine stone first. There were still a few days before departure, and the work of the archives needed to be handed over. Amon had to use the last few days to read some classics.

Amon plans to continue to carry those military books with him and leave them to Medanzo to read on the road. In the future, I really want to become a general on the battlefield. It is definitely not enough to establish merits by just one's own strength. I must have assistants who are proficient in military combat. Medanzo is a good candidate. At the same time, he borrowed a lot of books on military tactics, logistics, marching, and battle formations. Anyway, if you have space magic tools, please take them on the road and read them slowly.

When he was on duty on the archives on the last day, Amon found an opportunity to open the volume of "The Land of Marduk" and read it carefully from beginning to end. Last time I watched it quietly while there was no one. Time was too tight and it was impossible to read it too carefully. Today he tried to remember every detail between the lines. He saw the two familiar marks again in the last blank space. He quietly took out the token given by the old madman and compared it. It was the mark left by Bell, but it seemed to be printed in a hurry, which was very vague and difficult to identify.

The sound of the guards talking and saluting came from outside. Amon quickly put away the documents and restored the cabinet to its original state. He just turned around and was about to walk out when he suddenly heard someone behind him saying, "Captain Guard, your stuff has fallen!"

Amon was so scared that he was always calm and calm that he almost knocked over the cabinet beside him. This is the documentary room that collects precious files. No one is allowed to enter without notice. Moreover, with his vigilance, he did not find anyone in the room at all! He turned around in the shock, and had pulled out his short sword in his hand and arranged a fighting posture that could be attacked and defended in the narrow aisle between two rows of bookshelf.

But the next moment, Amon immediately put down his weapon and knelt on one knee and said, "Dear High Priest, why did you suddenly come in without even saying hello? Please forgive me for not greeting me with politeness!"

The person in front of him was wearing a robe and smiling. He looked at Amon's eyes with a different meaning. He did not hold a staff in his hand, and he held a sign and said, "Captain Amon Guard, you are very alert and react very quickly. It can be seen that you are loyal to your duties. I am very satisfied! Is this sign yours? I accidentally fell to the ground and take it back."

The speaker is very familiar with Amon, George, the senior priest who was in charge of the archives. Not long ago, he was promoted to high priest by the Saint, filling the vacant position after Julian was transferred away. George is easy-going and doesn't care much about things. He used to be a leisurely but not very good at taking charge of the archives.

He came from the folk and had no outstanding background. Later, he became a great magician and obtained the status of honorary high priest in the Temple of Isis, but he only served as a senior priest. As an honorary high priest, George did not like to fight for power, and lived a secluded life in the Temple of Isis that was almost isolated from the world. Just shortly before Amon arrived at the Temple of Isis, he quietly advanced to an eighth level magician.

In addition to the original three high priests in the Temple of Isis, there are five honorary high priests who are great masters. Although they do not hold real power, they have a transcendent status. George is just the least noticeable one of them. Unexpectedly, when the new official high priest was elected, the Saint promoted George to the name and reported to the Pharaoh to obtain gratitude. This happened after Amon arrived at the Temple.

After George became the high priest, the priest in charge of the archives was naturally replaced by others, but under George's direct jurisdiction, he was responsible for managing all the archives documents of the Temple of Isis, the list of farms and servants, and the collection and registration of taxes in each season. His authority was much greater than before, but his personality had not changed much, and he still looked smiling all day long.

George was now smiling at Amon. As soon as Amon subconsciously touched his arms, the token given to him by the old madman was certainly gone, and his cold sweat suddenly flowed down.

Amon could not be so careless in doing things. The sign was definitely put in his arms just now, but it was inexplicably brought to the hands of the great magician. George must have used the stealth magic technique. Without Amon's conscious, he entered the documentary room and saw Amon taking out the sign. Maybe he also saw him reading the divine classics, but he used some unknown method to take the sign away from Amon's arms.

But the high priest pretended to be confused and deliberately said that the sign fell to the ground. Amon was very nervous. He was careful that he finally made a mistake after so long. Facing a great magician whom he could not compete with, all the secrets were in danger of being exposed. He quickly thought about how to explain it, but when he heard George say this, he immediately replied: "It's mine, thank you, Lord George, I accidentally fell to the ground just now."

George calmly returned the sign to Amon and said, "It seems to be a very special emblem. It must be packed and can't be thrown around like this... Who gave you this thing? The materials and patterns are very special, and I think most people can't process it."

A great magician smiled and looked like he wanted to penetrate his soul. Amon could only calmly answer: "When he was in his hometown, he was no longer here."

George put away his smile: "Oh, are you no longer alive? What a pity!"

Amon said the truth: "Have you not heard of it? My hometown was destroyed by a great flood, and the elder died in that disaster."

George sighed and said, "I'm sorry to mention your sad past. I almost forgot that your hometown is Duke Town. It was you who mined the tears of the gods, and it was also the relics of Nero. Young man, your behavior is indeed admirable... I heard that there are many scrolls in Nero's relics. I want to ask if one of them is called Storm of Destruction?"

Amon thought for a while and replied, "Mr. Nero's will is very generous. I got six high-level scrolls and six intermediate scrolls, but there was no destruction of the Storm, and I had never heard of this name."

George said again, "I'm just asking. It's a legendary scroll. Many people have never heard of it. It is said that only Nero has the ability and interest to produce it on the mainland, but the energy and price he put in is also huge. I don't know if he has tried it or whether it has been successful? ... Since you are here, you can do me a favor."

Amon hurriedly said, "Great High Priest, please give me any orders if you have anything."

George said in a self-deprecating tone: "When people get old, they often have bad memory. I came to check a volume of classics, but I found the wrong documentary room. I will tell you the number, and you can send it directly to me. I remember that the volume of classics is locked in a cabinet. If you ask the priest in charge for the key, you say I want to read it."

After he finished speaking, the great magician reported a file number, turned around and walked out, leaving only Amon standing alone with the sign. The sweat on Amon gradually became dry, and he couldn't help feeling a little chill. He shook his head vigorously, and then ran out to pick up the book for High Priest George.

He took the special key to the blessing of magic, opened the file cabinet protected by the magic array, and took out the classics. The volume was very thin, and the content was about the production and introduction of the scroll. The cover read "Storm of Destruction" was written on it. This is the scroll George asked about just now. Amon couldn't help but open it and glanced again, and couldn't help but hold his breath. He finally understood how precious the gray nameless scroll he had been collecting was!

The classics introduce the theoretical production method of this scroll, which is unimaginable and almost impossible to accomplish, but Nero did it. "Storm of Destruction" is different from any other scroll. To inspire it, it must be at the cost of the user's life, and its power cannot be controlled at all. Once it unfolds, it will not only burn out the user's life, but also destroy all life within its power. It is said that even the gods will be severely damaged.

If Amon had sacrificed his life, he would have died with almost anyone with the Destruction Storm in his hand! He finally understood why the gatekeeper of the Underworld would panic when he saw him take out the gray scroll. Nero might have the intention of dying with Bell, but in the end there was no need to use this scroll, because Bell himself chose to die with him.

After reading the thin volume, Amon put it in an exquisite wooden box, holding it in both hands and personally delivered it to a side hall where George usually handles official duties. George saw Amon and nodded with a smile: "It's so fast. I just sat down, and you sent the classics. Thank you for your hard work, put them on the table."

Amon put the wooden box on the table and respectfully retreated to the side and stood with his hands down, but did not immediately leave. George did not open the wooden box to read the book, but lowered his head to continue handling official duties. After a while, he looked up in surprise and said, "Amon, you haven't left yet, is there anything wrong?"

Amon nodded and said, "Yes, sir, you have not read the classics yet, and I am waiting for your instruction."

George ordered all the servants in the room to retreat, and then said to Amon: "Of course I believe in Captain Amon's Guard, so there is no need to check this book. Now there is no one else, just say anything."

Amon took out two high-end scrolls from his arms and placed them gently on the table and said, "This is a gift from Lord Nero. In order to express your admiration for the noble master, it is my little intention. Please accept it."

Unexpectedly, Amon came to give a gift. George was stunned and twisted his beard with his hands and laughed: "Amon, do you know how valuable this gift is?"

Amon replied: "No matter how precious the things are, they must have their corresponding uses. The value of this thing cannot be measured by money alone. In front of you, the noble master, they are just objects to display magical arts."

George looked at Amon with interest and said, "I have experienced enough things and understand people's hearts. If I don't accept it, you may not be at ease. Well, I'll thank you!" He calmly accepted these two high-end scrolls.

Amon quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Giving gifts has been an art from ancient times to the present. Amon has also accepted gifts from others, which represents a hint and request. If it is refused, it also symbolizes rejecting the other party's request. George was very direct and simply pointed out Amon's thoughts, not only accepted the scroll in person, but also told Amon to be at ease.
