Pivot of the Sky

Gore sighed suddenly: "Wallet, you are the first of my students to become a great magician, and my future achievements will most likely remain above me. I have a statement that if this person becomes your friend, if one day I am gone, you and Rafael must not slack and despise him. ”

Wallet was surprised to say, "Why do teachers say this? You are already a top nine magician with a powerful power that gives you a prosperous life, much longer than ordinary people. In my mind, you are like a god. ”

Grey sighed again: "Gilgamesh showed you the letter, and you know my wish, it's almost impossible, I just want to try. Even if we are long gone thousands of years later, perhaps this wish will remain unfulfilled in humans, but it has been tried. That's what I'm after, you know? ”

Wallet's divinity grew: “Teachers want to build a whole new city state on that mile of fertile soil, with neighboring nations in charge, living side by side, without distinction as to race or creed, and I'm afraid even spirits won't support it. But I understand what you're doing, and you've foreseen that blood and fire never stop, and you want to do everything you can, even if you can't stop it. As long as the teacher wants, I will fully support it, which is also my wish. ”

"When I had the ninth level of achievement, I made this vow. I knew it wouldn't happen, but I could devote my life to it. As for you and Raphael, there may be another secret waiting for you to reveal, and I don't even know the answer.... The more I look at the young man named Arojo, the more familiar he is. If he comes to Syria City State as a guest, be sure to bring him to me. ”

……

Ammon was not aware that Gore had recognized him and was waiting to meet him, and after putting away the deed he still lived in the city state. Instead of looking for a guest house this time, he bought a compound directly in the name of Arrocho as a foothold for his future journey to and from Syria City State. There will probably be many more trips to and from the city state, and it is certainly more convenient to have your own home.

After a simple settlement, Amon wandered around in the state of Syria to get to know the place first. When he walked near the South Gate that day, he saw a lot of people gathering on the road leading to the city gate, showing excitement as if waiting for something. Once again, the visiting High Priest of Raphael returned.

Rafael left without impressing anyone, but returned with a large platoon, and Cape Town State sent a visiting messenger and a guard dedicated to escorting the high priest to the highest standards. Amon was looking for Raphael, so he stood in front of the crowd and watched the crowd.

The guards lined up to greet each other in a neat line, and Rafael's carriage entered the city first, followed by soldiers from Cape Town with a distinct armor. As a gesture of courtesy, with the exception of wars such as the knife and axe, all other weapons have been collected. Raphael's eyes were so good that he sat in the carriage closing the caravan and waved a smile to the welcome people. As soon as he turned his head against Amon's eyes, he nodded to him with a surprise and whispered a few words to an attendant by the car.

At this point, Amon had a feeling of discomfort, a feeling of resentment and fear, coming from a carriage in the back. The car, the messenger of Cape Town State, could not see clearly the person sitting in it, but Amon could be sure that someone was staring at him in the corner of the curtain, full of hostility.

Ammon wanted to escape and disappear from the crowd. But Raphael's entourage walked away from the convoy and split the crowd to greet him: "Hello, Lord Arrocho, Lord Raphael sent me to greet you! ”

The crowd automatically separated Amon and gave him an empty space, and everyone looked at him and revealed their esteemed divinity. Amon had to say, “Lord Raphael has such a good eye. He can recognize me at a glance in so many people. What guidance did he send you? ”

The attendant bowed, "Lord Raphael, I'm glad you came to Syria City State. I wonder if you've met the High Priest Wallet? ”

Amon shook his head gently: "I've just arrived in the city and haven't had time to visit. ”

"In that case, Lord Rafael asked me to leave his address and welcome you as a guest. Please also indicate your residence in Syria City State, where he would like to visit in person. If you don't have a place to stay, let me arrange it for you. ”

As soon as Rafael entered the city, he saw Amon, accompanied the Messenger of Cape Town State to the official station and stopped, sending a greeting to Amon. Amon thought about it and left his address in Syria City State, and there was nothing to keep a secret.

Amon's hostile eye caught Amon's attention in the second car, but he is now a great magician and a great samurai, and he is alone. He is not afraid of anything. Even if there is trouble, he can always get away in this smoky city. Besides, he wanted to see Grey, and Raphael came to him on his own initiative.

……

The convoy went far, Fayyor-Judah quietly dropped the corner of the curtain and the gloom plunged into contemplation. He was the ambassador for this return visit to the State of Syria, where he came on two assignments. The official duties are to lead the guard team to escort Rafael back home, convey greetings from Cape Town State, negotiate business dealings after traffic resumes, and secretly examine the false dynamics of the city of Syria.

He also had a personal assignment, which Julian the Great Magician secretly described to him. If you find the two people in Cape Town who hate Amon the most, it's Julian and Judah. Judah hated Amon for a simple reason: he had embezzled the money that Rhode-Dick had given him, and his actions in Duke had indirectly framed Amon.

Judah thought Amon was just a tiny little miner, but he didn't expect Amon to become an important figure. A small figure who has been offended and framed by himself, suddenly becomes important, will make people unable to sleep, he can't help but have bad luck again, otherwise one day the bad luck is likely to be himself. This is the mindset of many, though Amon has never sinned or offended Judah.

As for Julian's resentment of Amon, which had gone deep into the bone marrow and disappeared after Amon's men, the Virgin sent him back a secret letter to the high priest of Burke, and then placed him far away in Cape Town State so that Julian could not speak of his suffering. As long as Amon lives in the world, like a nail in his eyes and a thorn in his flesh, there is nothing he can do.

Julian, after all, is an eight-level archdeacon and one of the elders of the Ecumenical Academy. Although nominally under the authority of Lord Rhode-Dick, he is not inferior to Rhode-Dick in real terms and is a powerful player in the Ecumenical Empire. He can't blatantly offend the Virgin, but that doesn't mean he can't blame Amon.

When Amon was at Isis Temple, Julian couldn't do anything about him, and now the opportunity finally came. Amon was sent on a covert expedition to Syria City State, and Julian heard it through his own channels. A spy like this, if caught, would not be recognized in public, either executed after interrogating information, or exchanged privately, in short, if Ammon were exposed, not only would the mission fail, but 89 out of 10 would lose their lives.

This visit by Fayol Judah was also deliberately arranged by Julian.

Judah sat in the car and remembered Lord Julian's secret admonition: "You have gone to Hati, and in addition to performing the duties entrusted to you by the City State, watch out for something else. I heard that Amon was sent by the Temple of Isis on a spy mission to the state of Syria, and if you can find out his whereabouts, I think you know what to do? ”

Fayor asked somewhat cynically: "If Amon were caught revealing his identity, would it affect the empire and the city? ”

Julian laughed: "He went to spy on what happened after the flood. As far as I know, the Empire sent more than one secret agent. There were many of him, and the real military machine, Amon, had no idea. Even if he was captured by mistake, the Egyptian Empire and the Temple of Isis would not have admitted the incident without any consequences. Judah, it's a secret between you and me, and if you succeed, it means you're a very capable man, and I don't think you want to be a clerk forever, either? ”

Judah also asked, "Why did Isis Temple send Amon on a spy mission? ”

Julian laughed coldly: "All he had to do was give him a chance to be promoted again. Isis Temple is facing an alternation of power. Someone is vigorously nurturing the power of kinship, including me, which belongs to the excluded party. But don't forget, even if I'm not the high priest of the Temple of Isis, I'm the senator of the Ecumenical Academy. Ammon's mission is irrelevant because of the upcoming changes in Syria City, the clear prophecy of the Ecumenical Academy, and the guidance of the Oracle. ”

On the way here, Judah was in a bit of a mood. He knew that Lord Julian wanted to take out Amon by the hand of Hathai, which was also in his mind, but he always felt a little disturbed. Besides, the state of the city of Syria was so big that there was little hope of meeting Amon. But as soon as he got into town, he saw Amon. What a coincidence! Do you really have the guidance of a god?

As soon as Judah bites his teeth and makes a decision, let Amon disappear here forever. When he returns, Lord Julian will surely appreciate and reuse him, and without the worrying aftermath of Amon.

Gore did not receive a messenger from Cape Town State, and Governor Shaw Mo held a grand welcome dinner at the residence and asked the treasurer to accompany Mr. Judah for a few days to have fun in the city.

At the same time, Governor Shawmore secretly ordered that the entire city remain in a peaceful atmosphere of relaxation and comfort, but quietly stepped up the security checks to prevent the infiltration of vital intelligence. In the minds of officials at these levels, Governor Shawmoh, it is known that the conflict between Hattie and Ecu is approaching, but it is not yet time for a complete stall. The more apparent the article, the more enthusiastic it is about the Messenger's invitation from Echo.

It was precisely that evening that SS Captain Rez-Moon, who was in charge of patrolling the city, received a secret report that a secret inquiry from the Egyptian Empire had sneaked into the city after examining the strategic terrain along the Black Fire jungle, but had been identified. The report also contained the address of the secret agent, Arojo, who had bought a residential compound in the city state the previous day as a stronghold for clandestine activities.

Such espionage infiltration was common before the two countries were declared ready for war, and the Kingdom of Hati sent many agents to the Egyptian Empire on business or otherwise. Both sides were ostensibly unavailable and heavily guarded.

Moon didn't know the secret newspaper was true, but he dared not be lazy. He immediately drove a team of his own soldiers to the courtyard, quietly sealed off the intersections at night, and heavily armed soldiers surrounded the courtyard to prevent leakage and the secret agent from escaping, which brought several elite men down to the door to prepare to capture Arrocchi himself.

Munn is the pro-guard captain of the State of Syria. He runs three pro-guard guards. Usually, the three division captains take turns to patrol the city. But today, the Governor has orders. Munn himself takes care of this, but he happens to catch up with it. Lucky for him.

Munn also had a peculiar past, two years ago, when he was merely a small leader of a station in the Black Fire Forest, with more than a dozen soldiers stationed at the station.

In that flood, the town of Duke and all the stations in the blackfire jungle were washed away, and only Munn, in imminent danger, quickly led the soldiers to the highest boulder nearby, tying everyone together with his belt to grab the shrub for rescue. The great magician Gore drove the Dark Blue Boat deep into the flood and rescued them on his way to Duke Town, the only survivor of the flood.

Whether in distress or rescue, Munn commanded well, feared or surprised. The soldiers under his command remained disciplined, did not panic at all, and did not disturb Grey on the Blue Boat. He was praised and appreciated by Grey. Upon returning to the city, Gretel deliberately recommended Moon to Shaw Mo, and he has been reused ever since.

When Shaw Moore led the ambush of Rhode-Dick's convoy, he lost a first-hand unit, which of course needed to be rebuilt, and Moon became a squad leader and later a squad leader. Just a few months ago, Moon broke through level seven to become a great samurai and was promoted to the rank of SS captain throughout Syria City, responsible for protecting the security of the Governor and maintaining order in the city state.

Becoming a great samurai, Munn held an aristocratic status and served as the captain of the City State Guard, a position far less distinguished than that of a small station leader of the day. He was deeply grateful to Gore, the great magician who saved him and recommended him, not only for his life but also for his knowledge.

For that reason, Munn is committed to his duty and, as a great warrior, will personally come to capture a small secret agent. Judah, the ambassador of Cape Town State, is still here as a guest, so everything has to be done in secret.

The night is quiet, the house in Arrocho is in a quiet location, and the streets are clear of siege. Moon checked with satisfaction before coming to the door to pull out his weapon and kick the door open with one foot.

At the feet of a great samurai, the thick wooden door was as fragile as a piece of paper, fragmented and scattered without even making too loud a sound. Moon carried the shield with his right hand with a sword. He was the first to walk in. The front yard was empty and the window of the hall was lit, and the people inside should not have rested yet.

Moon didn't give a shit, and walked towards the door with his weapon under the escort of a soldier, lifting his leg and kicking the door away. This foot is heavy, the door panel is not broken, but the shaft is broken and shot directly into the house, if someone is hiding behind the door, they will fall into the house with the door panel.

Moon's shield glittered with a long sword, with guards on both sides holding a round shield and a shuttle gun stretching left and right into the door blocking the flanks, quite skilful to work with. According to common sense, after the heavy doorboard landed, Captain Moon should give his name after a very powerful drink, indicating that the agent was willing to surrender voluntarily.

A little spy sees this scene, and a big Mun warrior takes it personally, not scared of pissing his ass off!

But something dazzling happened, and Munn just kicked the door panel into the air and saw the scene. Then he threw his weapon away and pounced on his knees. The guards on both sides then laid down their weapons and knelt outside the door. The armor on them made a crisp collision. The three of them said: "Damn, it bothered your old man late at night! ”

The soldiers in the back showed their dismay and knelt in the courtyard without saying a word and laying down their weapons.

There are people in the house, not one, but four. An old man sat face-to-face with a teenager without lifting his eyelids, like he didn't hear a sound. Two others sat beside each other at the table, facing the door, and they saw Munn kick in, make a stop gesture and reveal a harsh look, just two high priests, Wallet and Rafael, in the State of Syria.

That kicked door turned into countless pieces of debris in mid-air, floating all over the floor, but not a single piece fell on the table and the four of them. The young man, of course, is the "spy” Arrocho that Munn is going to capture tonight, and the old man opposite Arrocho is actually Gore, both of whom play chess!

They followed an ancient army battle chess game, which replaced different types of troops with chess pieces of various animal shapes, on a large chessboard in a position of restraint and killing each other, presumably very complicated, only a few people could understand. And the laws of the two men are even stranger, with no chessboards or pieces at all, and the void on the table shows the light of the army battle beast chess. The board changes and the animals fight each other, perfectly in the demonstration of the game.

This Lower Famoon has also heard that only the Great Magician can do this. Gore doesn't have to say, and the young man opposite him is also a great magician!
