149, Horus with broken wings
These two people have friendship. John was the commander of the An-La Legion, and Sio was the logistics quarantine officer, and he was also a comrade-in-arms who had been on the front line together. John had no choice but to take Sio back to see the general in a carriage.
Amon was happy when he saw Sio and laughed: "Why are you getting fat again? You can't live a pampering life all day long, and you must also pay attention to sports and work. I remember that you were a very diligent businessman at the time. If you hadn't traveled through the desert to Barron to collect the bills, we wouldn't have known each other."
Sio saluted and said, "Because of the battle, I was tired and dark and thin at that time. When I came back, my family felt very sad when they saw it. They advised me to take a good rest and take supplements. As a result, I have been over-pained in the past six months and are even fatter than before."
John kicked him hard and said, "You are still asking for trouble day and night?"
Amon asked John again: "How is the matter going?"
John replied, “It’s done.”
Amon nodded: "Go and bring Miss Themispho, here, I have something to say."
Themisphir came to the front hall and knelt down to Amon as soon as he entered the door: "General, I don't know how to express my gratitude. You and General John not only punished the sinful people, but also made the original affairs public. This is my wish that I vowed to realize at the cost of my life in front of the gods. It seems that the folk legend is true. You have been favored by the gods and have the brilliance of the gods in the world!"
Amon quickly signaled John to help her up and sighed, "I am ashamed of saying this. Jules is a warrior who fought with me. He sacrificed his life on the battlefield, but we did not save his family. It was too late to know that all this... If you have to thank you, thank General John. He is the one who went to the farm to investigate, and he is also the one who formally filed accusation with the city-state."
Themisfire was about to kneel down to John again. John was holding her elbow, and he quickly stopped him. He looked at his posture and seemed to hug her, and his face turned a little red. Seeing this, Amon asked again: "Missfire, John has redeemed your slave today, and you have avenged your revenge. What are your plans in the future?"
Themisfei burst into tears: "I thought my destiny was to be together with Sheng Yi. The general not only avenged his revenge, but also left me in the world. My life is yours, and it is difficult to repay as a slave in this life."
Amon waved his hand: "Don't say that, you did nothing wrong and shouldn't bear such a tragedy. Since that's the case, I have something to ask you alone, and the others will go out first."
John was still stunned. Sio grabbed his arm and pulled him out, and shook his eyes and smiled. They were waiting outside. After a while, Themis came out. Her eyes were red and her face was red. She looked down at John and said, "General, please come in and talk alone."
After a while, John came out, lowered his head and glanced at Themispho, and grinned silently. Siou asked in confusion: "General John, why are you smirking? I have never seen you look like this. Is there any happy event?"
John still laughed and didn't answer. Amon walked out of the house and said, "Of course there are happy events. All the things we met in so many days were upset. Today I finally had a happy event. It happened that Lord Sio was there, and he held a banquet to have a drink in the evening and went to attend the blessing ceremony of Goddess Isis tomorrow."
...
The annual blessing ceremony of Goddess Isis has finally arrived. This year's ceremony is particularly lively. People from various nearby city-states have come to participate. And just a few days before the ceremony, the imperial general Amon made a big fuss in Meng Feisi, which became a topic of conversation for people in their spare time.
Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the huge square, but under the command of the warriors, the order was in order, without crowding or pushing. When the blessing ceremony began, no matter where the corner was standing, the sacred light that fell from the sky would fall on everyone. Amon held a shuttle gun and was wearing armor, just like an ordinary guard standing in the crowd on the edge of the square, responsible for maintaining order in this area. The people around him looked at the platform in front of the temple in the distance, and did not know that Amon, who was famous on the mainland, was standing beside him.
The warriors in brightly-clad clothes formed a semicircular military formation in front of the long steps of the temple. In the military formation was the platform where the saint held the ceremony. Behind the platform was the large divine arts formation set up by the priests, and the noble adults watched the ceremony on the long steps. Maria wore a golden crown and held a staff to climb to the platform. The bell in the temple rang, and everyone knelt down toward the platform. Amon also leaned over and knelt down, putting the shuttle gun on the ground at hand.
The general did not bow his head to kiss the ground, but looked up at the Saint. Maria slowly raised her staff and glanced at the people in the square. She seemed to see each person clearly, but there was a freeze, looking at the distance with a pair of eyes on the edge of the square in the distance. She showed a slight smile, then closed her eyes slightly and began to chant.
Amon didn't know what Maria was singing. At this moment, the Saint was in the center of a powerful divine art formation. Amon's detection magic technique could not sense it, but he could feel it in his heart.
The tears of the gods on the staff emitted a faint golden light. The golden light became stronger and stronger, but it was not dazzling, spreading towards the surroundings and the sky. The great array of divine arts began to operate, and the golden light gathered in the air and formed a bright beam of light toward the sky, and the entire sky turned golden.
The beam of light disappeared, and Meng Feisi's sky seemed to have shone like this golden light since ancient times. With the melodious bells, there was a white light like a veil, a waterfall, a flying snow, a dripping of milk, a floating feather, and a silent scattering. This is Isis's blessing magic technique, and hundreds of thousands of people in the square felt its magical comfort, including Amon.
Everyone was praying with devout prayers, only Amon looked up at Mary. She stood in the middle of thousands of people, emitting a holy light. Amon did not pray, and thought nothing in his heart, but just looked at her. The light fell on him, as if accompanied by a gentle chanting, just like Mary's words in the temple answered "What is blessing"-
"If the spirit gains the power of yearning in the heart, the spirit will not close its eyes to the people, witness sin and kindness, let love and honesty meet, justice and peace be together, the richness of the earth will accompany the peace of the spirit in the heart, and wash away the unclean soul. It is a gift and a scrutiny, and this is the true blessing."
If the so-called god is really like Mary said, then Amon will devote his body and mind to his body and mind with the most pious oath. That is Mary's god, the god she believes in! Under the comfort of this light, among the crowd, Amon felt very weak, like a newborn baby, with nothing but a brand new life and future.
This weakness is not weakness, but pure and vigorous vitality. Amon has forgotten whether he has lost his power, and he has not thought about it anymore. He just experienced the inspiration of this magic like a newborn. He is the only person in the square who has no prayer and the person who is most focused on experiencing this ritual.
...
Assassin appeared at the blessing ceremony two years ago, and last year he fought a war with the two kingdoms. Will this year's ceremony happen unexpectedly? Many people were secretly alert. Just when the ceremony reached its climax, Wald, the ninth-level master who was responsible for supervising the entire audience on the long stairs of the temple suddenly frowned because he heard the rolling thunder.
Amon, who was in a state of selflessness at the edge of the square, suddenly "wake up" and he also heard the thunder sound. The dull sound like rolling thunder did not come from the sky, but came from the depths of the underground in the east. With a slight tremor, the entire city-state was trembling, but ordinary people had not yet noticed it.
What's going on? Before I could think, Amon instantly used his magic power to use the space magic technique, and fixed the ground under his feet as much as possible. His magic power extended and then felt the convergence of several other powerful magic powers. It was because the great magicians such as Wald also took the same measures.
The strongest force to settle the earth is of course the magical array from the high platform. The main function of this magical array is to assist the saint in completing the ceremony and ensure that it is not disturbed by any accidents. The people in the square neither heard the muffled sound like rolling thunder underground nor felt the slight trembling of the earth, and were still immersed in the glory of Isis' blessing.
But the feelings of great magicians such as Amon were completely different. The tremor of the earth was very weak, but the power was so huge that it was almost irresistible. So many people could only barely hold on to the central area of Mengfeisi City-State with the square as the center. They felt that the impact of magic power was so violent that they felt like a small boat thrown in the wind and waves. The horror in their hearts was conceivable!
The earth trembled for not long, and it stopped before the end of the blessing ceremony. Amon finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the legend of Tianshu Continent, the earth shaking was the wrath of the gods towards the sins of the human world. However, when Isis's blessing ceremony, it felt absurd to think of such a legend.
Amon gently wiped the fine sweat beads that oozed out of his forehead, but his movements suddenly stopped. He realized something that his magic power had been restored! If not, how could he use the space magic just now? It was restored without him realizing it. Amon didn't even think about it when he used the magic magic.
He has completely passed the test. Has he achieved level 8 with two sides of strength? Amon moved a *** body and suddenly realized another thing. He had not fully recovered his power. The magic power used to use magic has indeed recovered, and it is far stronger than before, but the power of his body's bloodline is still the same as yesterday, and it has not recovered and grown. His current situation is similar to that of an ordinary eight-level magician.
Amon closed his eyes and carefully felt his condition. He suddenly smiled again. The power of his body's bloodline can be said to have recovered or not. He also needed a process of re-growth. He slowly became strong like an adult. He could no longer tell whether it was the power of magic or physical skills. The power of both sides of the body finally merged into a true one, which was like a transformation.
...
Of course, Maria on the platform also felt the tremor of the earth, but continued to complete the ceremony quietly, calmly and calmer than when she was assassinated. After the blessing ceremony, everyone sang a poem praising Goddess Isis. Maria walked down the platform and led the priests and city-state officials into the temple to sacrifice to the goddess. The ceremony was successfully completed.
However, all the great masters present had an ominous premonition in their hearts, and something must have happened in the distance. That night, Maria sent envoys to the city-states overnight to ask about any abnormal changes. And on the next day, all the important officials in the city-state in Mengfeisi were summoned to the temple. Amon did not return to the territory immediately, but stayed in Mengfeisi City for news.
A big thing really happened, a big thing that shocked the world, and three things happened at the same time!
...
The earth's vibration occurred in the cape city-state. The exact source point was the Red Cape defense area where Amon had fought against the Uruk Legion. The entire Lower Eju felt tremor, but it did not cause too much casualties.
According to a soldier who was on duty on the east gate of Hongke Town at that time, it was a sunny day, but the sky suddenly became dark. I couldn't see the dark clouds or the dark sky, and I couldn't see the stars and the moon like at night. All the residents of Hongke Town walked out of the houses, and the soldiers in the military camp also walked out of the tent.
People's hearts were shrouded in a huge unknown fear, gathered in the square in the center of the town to pray to the gods. Just as everyone looked up at the dark sky, various lights appeared at high altitude, like colorful huge rootless flames shining and circling, accompanied by impact, roar, and explosions like thunderous thunder. Then the earth began to shake, and the four towers of Hongke Town collapsed three in a violent tremor, and more than half of the houses were damaged. Fortunately, people gathered in the square because of the vision in the sky.
According to a boatman at the beach dozens of miles north of Hongke Town, he was repairing a broken boat on the beach. Suddenly he felt the sky darkened, the blue water churned without wind, and the dark sky turned dark red. There was a strong light flashing in the sky, and at a very far altitude, a ball of light exploded like sparks, and then the earth began to tremble violently, as if the rocks underground turned into monsters, colliding and biting each other. The sea water suddenly retreated, revealing a large area of seabed on the shore, leaving behind many stranded fish and shrimps.
The boatman ran towards the high place on the shore, stumbled along the way for many falls. He felt the earth moving, and looked back in horror, and was so scared that his whole body was weak and he could not run any longer. The retreating sea water roared and formed a high wave wall and rushed back, sweeping away the boat on the beach. The coast not far away was trembling, and the incredible force was tore open a crack, and the sea water poured into the depths of the land along the crack.
...
It seemed as if a giant blade of heaven had slashed on the ground, slashing a gap. The land was spreading to both sides along the edge of the Red Cape defense line set up by Amonzon, and the sea water poured in from the north to form a fissure-like bay, shaped like a dagger on the *** land. The sea water engulfed the battlefield where Amon had fought fiercely with the Uruk Legion, and passed through nearly four-fifths of the land outside the east gate of Red Cape Town, leaving only a narrow passage at the southernmost end.
A narrow and long inland sea was formed in the Cape City-State. When the sky cleared again, the sea water in the sun was slightly red like a faint blood light. Therefore, this narrow and long inland sea was later called the Red Sea. The main city of Cape City-State was 160 miles away from the source of the earthquake. It is the closest large city with the strongest tremor. Many deep cracks appeared on the solid walls, and many houses in the city-State also suffered varying degrees of damage, with hundreds of casualties.
However, the most serious accident occurred in the temple. The solid temple building was not damaged, but the statue of Horus worshipped in the middle of the temple broke its wings on its right. The huge stone sculpture fell from a high place and broke into many pieces, and the priests were panicked.
If the vibration is too strong, the entire temple and surrounding buildings will be destroyed, and the statues will inevitably be damaged. However, the temple and the solid buildings around the square are intact, but only the most important statue of Horus has broken a wing. This is a catastrophic sign, and the consequences may be serious.
The statues in the main temple of the city state are not ordinary things. From mining quarries to chiseling stones, transporting them in place, carving the statues is strictly supervised, and all the names of the craftsmen involved are recorded in the book. This huge statue has a history of a hundred years, majestic and strong, without even a crack, so how could it suddenly break its wings?
According to regulations, the responsible craftsmen will accept the most severe punishment, but the craftsmen a hundred years ago can no longer be investigated. The city lord Rod Dick organized people to investigate the disaster, and sent people to send urgent reports to Meng Feisi and King Eju, waiting anxiously.
News from all over the country was quickly fed back, which made Rod Dick feel a little relieved while being frightened. The same thing happened in the Horus Temple in all Eju City-State. The man's body, the head of the eagle, and the statue of the Horus wearing wings like a huge cloak were all damaged, and all the right wings broke and smashed the altar.
This can only show one thing: the damage of the statue has nothing to do with the craftsmen who built it, nor is it just the fault of the cape city-state. However, the same happened in the statues of the Horus temples in all city-states across the country. Only in some small private temples, the statues of the imperial king gods remained intact. What does this mean? It makes people dare not think deeply, and all the residents of Egypt shudder!
...
The earthquake formed a narrow and narrow inner sea in the cape city-state. Goddess Muyun once told Amon that this is the boundary of the divine realm of the Ajujiulian divine line. The statues of Horus in the temples of the city-states across the country were broken and damaged, and even the distant and shaking city of Des is no exception.
According to legends since ancient times, this may not only symbolize the wrath of the gods, but also the fall or injury of the gods. The Pharaoh, who claimed to be the incarnation of the human world of Horus, should be the most terrified and uneasy, but he must stand up to appease the people in order to maintain his theocratic status. However, Rases II no longer needs to worry. The third major event that happened at the same time was Pharaoh Eju who died suddenly.
