Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 207: 205, The Spirit Who Collapsed the Divine Altar
The Duke Plains were in a mixed war, and Rhode-Dick knew that Theo and others, in the name of trade, were delivering strategic goods to Salem City through the Cape border, and he closed his eyes. Gabrietto asked about Amon, and he was really concerned, but unfortunately the well-informed city owner had not received any news in most of the six months, and Amon had disappeared like a human being.
Rhode-Dick routinely also goes to the temple to pray, and leads the people to sacrificial ceremonies every time at various city and state festivals. But the most important prayer in his personal heart is only one thing: do not spread the fighting in the Tuk Plains to Ecu, otherwise the first person facing the pressure of the war is Cape Town State. He also hoped that Salem City State would be able to stand on its feet, that Amon would be safe and sound, and that he would be willing to help in any way he could in private.
Rhode-Dick had been asking about Amon for so long, but he had no idea that Amon would come forward openly in Cape Town State. When he saw Amon, he fell off the wagon with a surprise and turned back not only to order the entire city to seize it, but also to plead guilty to Aegupharaoh.
……
The Temple of the Ecumenical City and State, where sacrificial ceremonies are held twice a month, is accessible to the people of the city and state. There are also three major festivals per year, equivalent to the most important festivals in the city state. That day coincided with the celebration of the sacrifice to the angels of Ann La and the Carnival of the citizens.
On this day, all the officers of the department took a holiday, and the people wore new clothes and walked around shops in the alleys of the street, rarely enjoying such leisure. After noon, everyone gathered in Temple Square for a laugh, and a number of hawkers picked up burdens and pushed cars around the square.
Lord of the City carriage arrived, Rhode-Dick picked the curtains and was about to walk down, while the great magician led the priests in a long line, and the atmosphere was cheerful and peaceful. The thick temple gate is open at this time, and from the front of the square you can see the idols in the main temple.
No one thought that at this point, a figure suddenly appeared in the crowd, as if it were starving straight into the main temple, waving a sword with a golden arc and slashing the statue of the Angela statue of Pensett, and then smashing the sturdy stone roof of the main temple into a large cave and flying away.
Tens of thousands of people shouted, followed by a silent raven, all staring with their eyes wide open and staring silly. Eabin was about to come over and say hello to Rod Dick and shocked, and the wand swung up and chased him. Yet Ibin had just flew over the temple, and yet another man flew in a shadow slash. The axe in his hand was like a silver phantom. An arc-shaped phantom blade spread into Ibin's air.
Yibin's frightened soul almost flew away. Fortunately, he was quick to react. A steer in the air actually went through the big hole on the roof of the main temple and applied a thick layer of gas element armor. The second person who suddenly flew away waved an axe to push Eabin back, and then flew away.
Then you hear a strange noise in the temple, clicking, clicking, crisp, full of kung fu for half a meal, and you hear another loud noise, like something heavy collapses all over the ground. At that time, the guards on duty had followed the direction of the spoilers' escape, and the clerics stormed into the hall to see what was happening to Ibin.
Rhode-Dick was about to get out of the car, so he looked up and stared at the sky and fell on his heels. Lord of the city fell down when he got out of the car, and the guardian who was supposed to help him turned around and looked at the sky, he didn't hold on! Rhode-Dick lost sight of all this and climbed up and ordered the assassins to be taken under siege throughout the city.
Dick City owners called them “assassins," but they didn't assassinate anyone, and if they did, it was just a statue of Seth. After the first “assassin" rushed into the temple and swept out, he did not stop at all and went straight after breaking the roof. As the priests rushed into the temple, only Lord Ibin was standing on the ground looking at Seth's statue in a shocking colour.
The tall and sturdy stone statue, the brow heart slowly appeared a crack, immediately followed by more and more cracks spread, the temple sounded a crackling crisp sound, Sete's statue was filled with cracks gradually like a spider web, then collapsed sharply, the ground was full of cracks.
Rhode-Dick ordered an assassin, but who was the assassin? What does it look like? No one can see! There's no way to catch this! But Rhode-Dick has to make this gesture. The Ann La Corps and the city guards are on the move urgently, searching all over the country day and night for suspicious personnel. Chicken and dog thieves have caught a lot of them by hand. It's chicken and dog jumping!
This matter is quite serious. During the City State Sacrifice Festival, all the military and political dignitaries were present. In front of the public, one sword broke the statue of the angel! If pursued, everyone, including Rhode-Dick and Ibin, is guilty. Knowing that the "assassin” could not be caught, Rod Dick had to do his utmost to hunt him down, and he had written an application and was preparing to send someone along with a detailed report of the incident to King Ezhudu.
Rhode-Dick had a hard time saying that he actually knew who those two were. The first person to rush into the temple to wave his sword was Amon. Although no one could see his face, Rod Dick was familiar with the shape and the momentum, but he could recognize it even if he just swept it. The second person to wave an axe in the air to defeat Ibin, of course, is Gabriel, and it seems that this great warrior has found Amon and has done such absurd things with Amon that Rod Dick has been left to suffer without delusion.
The confession was written, and Rode-Dick called in his heart again, giving private orders to whom the king should greet, what gifts to give, so as to help him make peace. This is bad luck for him. Pharaoh will surely order reprimand. Repriminate if you reproach him, as long as there is no substantial punishment. Before he finished, Rod Dick was relieved to hear another message.
The same thing happened just three days after the statue of Sete in the Temple of the Lord of Cape Town was severed with a sword, in the nearest Tanis Town State to Cape Town State. On that day, there was no sacrifice ceremony in Tannis City, everything was calm, but suddenly someone flew over the sky to smash the roof of the temple of the Lord out of a great hole, cut a sword towards the statue of Seth and then flew away from it. No one responded. The priests watched as the statue split and collapsed into pieces.
When Tanis City owners received an emergency report, they were just down the stairs after eating, rolling down the stairs with soft feet and breaking an arm. How can you fail to help the Lord of the City when the guardian standing beside him has been severely punished?
The owner of Tanis City was not as calm as Rhode-Dick and was probably choking. Instead, Rhode-Dick relaxed, not knowing why Amon and Gabriel were doing that, but understanding what they were doing was not deliberately messing with Cape Town State to get himself blackmailed. Pharaoh's reprimand will certainly come, but there will be no substantial punishment, and perhaps a few words of comfort in private.
Rhode-Dick kept his men quiet and went to Wangdu as planned, as did many gifts and petitions, while keeping a close eye on developments in other cities and states. Seven days later, the same thing happened in the province of Bushley, west of Tannis City, and another half month later, the "assassin” broke into the main temple of the province of Bubush, south of Tannis, chopping up the statue of Angel Seth with one sword.
Over the next month, a series of staggering "events” took place in the eastern banks of the Ronnie River in the states of Atlée, Rocky and Helio. The content is the same, the time and place are different, there is a crazy “assassin” rushing into the main temple of the city, doing nothing else, is to cut a sword to the statue of the angel Sete, and then fly away.
Gabriel followed Amon in Cape Town State, but Gabriel simply didn't show up when things happened in those cities.
This man must be insane, a madman among the madmen, to make such insane moves beyond the imagination of the world! But he's so powerful and powerful and horrible! It has been argued that he is a mad archmage, and at least an eight-level magician, because he can fly, and the sword in his hand has a dazzling and shocking magical effect. And the ordinary people don't know what kind of magic is.
What kind of strange and terrifying existence is a great sorcerer who uses a sword instead of a scepter? What a solemn and noble place the temple is, but the man rushes in like a scoundrel kicking in for revenge. It's not like he's a dead man. He didn't hurt anybody. He did it to Seth's statue. The Ecuadorians do not know how many statues of Sete are large or small, but this man specializes in finding the one in the main temple of the city.
For more than two months now, the man has cut the statue of Sete in the Temple of the Lord of the Seven Cities east of the Lower Eguroni River. The impact and vibration of this incident is so great that the entire Eguroni Empire is about to fall apart. Armed forces were deployed everywhere, and Ecu Academy of Theology and Imperial Ministry of Military Affairs sent a large number of high-ranking men to pursue them.
As for the other cities and states where assassins have not yet visited, they are waiting in a tight line. The guardians of the temples of their Lord are impervious to the wind, and this "demon of blasphemy" must no longer be allowed to take hold. Amon's current name has risen from “Assassin” to “Devil of the Blasphemy”, and his aim is either to fight the army or to destroy a statue that cannot be moved there, without dragging water with a single blow, and perhaps when it will appear in which city state.
Ecumenical states can't remove Seth's statue from the main temple, dig a pit, bury it, hide it? When Amon destroyed the statue of Sete in four cities, the nearby cities were already on alert, but he still got it. It is unlikely that there will be too many masters sitting in towns in the small towns in the heart of Eju who are not in a strategic rush. Even if a group of clerics and samurai are stationed in front of the Temple Gate, they will not be able to stop Amon's sudden attack.
Helio City State also deliberately assembled all the magicians to lay a great array of theologians in the temple, but the magicians could not lay vigilance day and night. They waited for a month without moving. When everyone was relaxed, Amon suddenly stormed the gate into the temple one morning, and the clergy had gone before they could run the great array of theologians, and Amon's sword had swung.
So far, no one has seen the face of this madman, and Rode-Dick, though he does, has not said to anyone that it is not clear that the "demon of blasphemy” is Amon. Later, rumours spread like a plague in the Ecumenical Empire, and some were even arguing that the man was not a demon, but a god who had enemies with Seth!
Of course, there are many high-ranking people in the Ecumenical Empire. The Ecumenical Academy also dispatched personnel to visit demon-shattered statues in various cities and states. Several elders of the Academy have seen the remains of the statues and listened to those present to describe the scene in detail, agreeing that the man was at least an eighth-level warrior, or even a nine-level warrior.
An amazing samurai who can fly freely! In traditional concepts, this is the divine power that God or His messenger possesses. A powerful samurai can make a full jump, rush into the temple like that demon, or break through the roof and fly away, but it's impossible to fly straight into the sky without a trace.
The messengers of the gods are also commonly referred to as gods in the world, such as the cat god Best, the frog god Hector, the crocodile god Sobaker, and others. There are ten gods in the Nine Leagues, including Horus. The rest of the gods are considered messengers of the gods. Now that the Egyptian Empire believes in Angela as its only god, the rest of the angels and angels are called angels, and Seth is the head of the angels.
If you're facing such an angel, then it's even worse!
There is a private conversation among individual great magicians, which may be revenge on the former imperial lord Horus. After examining the two destroyed idols, one of the elders of the Ecumenical Academy, the former Isis Temple and the high priest of the present Temple of Seth, Burke reported to Pharaoh Elahtmeister that the means of destroying the idols resembled the mining craftsmanship of the town of Duke, so presumably the man was Amon.
Burke is right, and his guess is well founded. Because after General Amunda left Ecu, he was sacrificed to the gods of Amon in the city of Salem in the Plains of Turk, perhaps he really possessed the means of the gods.
Is Amon really a god who came to man, or a messenger sent to man by a certain sect, or how could a small Duke miner miraculously establish the Megatron? Anyone who sees the Bulk newspaper can't help but think about it, but nobody can say it publicly.
Although Amon had been away from Ecuado for a year, the Imperial General's reputation was undiminished, revered and revered by many, and his poetry was still being chanted everywhere. Ecupharaoh sent men to hunt down Amon without a public secret order. On the face of it, General Amunda did not violate any Ecupharaoh decree, nor did the killing of Prince Snake go away. No one in the Chapel was willing to mention his name, but Amon's influence in the civil sphere grew.
As for the matter, Amon had only gone to the land of the Turk Plains, his homeland, which the late Pharaoh Rashith II had publicly ordered to be bestowed upon Amon. So the Grand General did not act as a defector, he only went back to his hometown with Pharaoh's reward to build the city of his dreams. On his way back home, Amon also won the victory over Celia the Great Mage of Hati, the beautiful and invincible princess, thus gaining the support of the Kingdom of Hati for his establishment of a city state.
This is how Amon's story spreads in folk, but it is also true that Amon's reputation is not only undiminished in the hearts and minds of the inhabitants of El, but his legendary story has inspired more people to yearn and admire and has even outweighed any famous hero in history.
Amon was worshipped as a god in Salem City, and many people heard of it and worshipped him more from the heart. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I'm afraid a lot of people are beginning to wonder why Amon has such a huge impact, but thinking about it makes sense. In this hierarchical society, Amon's experience breaks through too many constraints and obstacles and is a dream in the minds of the vast majority of ordinary people.
He was just the son of a lowlife miner in the town of Duke. When he was a teenager, his home was destroyed and wandered everywhere, but he founded the Merit of the Mighty Earthquake Continent, and he founded a miraculous city state in his hometown, which was eventually worshipped as a god. His story is more inspiring than any of the higher emperor's stories.
A lot of people worship Amon, and say it through a psychology of self-substitution and compensation. The vast majority of people in the world are unlikely to have noble origins, but Amon was one of them. Even if you can't do what you can dream, what Amon has achieved is like what you've achieved in your dreams.
Erlacht Pharaoh and a few high levels of the Empire, even endorsing Burke's speculation, are not very public. If the Ecumenical Empire really caught the “demon” who blasphemed the gods, and found him to be Amon, it would not declare him to be Amon, but would give him another name or the title of a demon.
But it is not easy to catch the "demon”, even if he is not an “angel”, a Lv9 samurai god left without a single blow, it took more than two months only to destroy the seven idols, can't find the exact whereabouts, can't talk about mobilizing a master to chase.
After successive accidents in seven cities, the “demon” 's erratic whereabouts finally became clearer, and all seven cities east of the Ronnie River in Lower Ecuadorian territory were in trouble. From the route he traveled, it should be from Cape Town State into Ecuadorian territory, from east to west to south, and the next step should be to cross the Ronnie River to reach the City of Dreamfield.
You already know, or guess, that demon is Ammon's people, like Rhode-Dick, and you know more or less what's going on. Amon, this is revenge for the Virgin Mary, who wants to destroy one by one the statue of Sete in the temple of the Lord of the Cities throughout Ecu, openly challenging and humiliating that angel elder in front of the world.
