Pivot of the Sky

The former commander of the Isis Legion was Dragon Teng, a Class 8 warrior from the noble family of the military, and the son of Dragon Teng is now a great warrior. Dragon Teng is almost seventy years old this year, has been promoted to Minister of the Ecumenical Ministry, and is currently in Wangdu.

It is not easy for Erlacht to move Longteng's father and son. They are deep-rooted, radiant and heavily armed in the army, and may provoke mutiny. Pharaoh intends to recruit Dragon Teng into the palace and put him under house arrest before forcing Dragon Teng to write a letter to deceive Wang to dispose of him together.

Adverse news then reached Pharaoh's ears, and Cape Town State and Monfist City State were said to have acted with the covert support of the Chief Elder of the Ecu Academy of Theology, the Great Wald Magician, before being emulated by other city states.

Errakht Pharaoh was deeply frightened, and representatives of the bureaucracy, the military and the clergy had emerged who had resisted him, and if not swiftly repressed by thunderous means, his real doom would soon come.

Burke, the great magician who had a grudge with Amon, has now been promoted to the high priest of the temple of Ehud. The frightened and angry Pharaoh sent a man to look for the Bulkmeister and made many promises privately, hoping that Bulk would play a crucial role and do a few things for him at this very moment.

……

After meeting Pharaoh, Burke returned from the palace to the temple, gloomy as water. The Heart Cleric asked him what he had talked about with Pharaoh. Burke was silent for half a day and replied: “Your Majesty is insane! ”

Having followed Burke for many years, he was an absolutely believable companion. He frowned and said: "The situation is now clear, more than a dozen cities and states have promulgated the Message of Ann La, but everyone has left a face for the monarch, not saying that Pharaoh had ordered the destruction of the Messenger's record. If His Majesty is wise, he should push the boat along to acknowledge the message, officially promulgate it in the form of a royal decree, and then announce a renumbered retreat, perhaps with a way out. ”

Burke laughed bitterly: "Acknowledging that the Oracle is unstoppable, do you want Pharaoh to withdraw himself? You think it's the only way out of the Pharaoh, but His Majesty himself wouldn't think so, even if he did, would it be good to leave? His Majesty is going to struggle to die. Even if his life is in danger and he is cursed by the gods, he must be buried with the rebels! Not to mention how he figured out how to fix the situation and plotted with me to suppress it. ”

"Your Majesty is really mad! Is he going to dispose of Longteng's father and son, Rod Dick and even the Great Wald Mage? If it is up to you to plan this, it is not them who will bury Pharaoh, but you! ”

Burke sighed, “Of course I understand, so it's time to make a decision. ”

"When you were the high priest of the Temple of Isis, Amon had just arrived in Ecu, and the great magician of Julian had sent someone to hunt him down, and a secret letter to you fell into Maria's hands. You have an old grudge with Amon, what if you don't support Pharaoh at this time? ”

Burke closed his eyes and said, "I'm not really sorry, Amon. How can he be called a god if he can't let go of this holiday? One thing you have to figure out is that Ann La did promulgate a message that I was a priest and I had to do what I had to do, not to mention that Erlacht was doomed? I cannot support Pharaoh, either by wise choice or by duty. ”

"My lord, what can I do for you? ”

"You immediately go to Dreamfield to meet the Lord and General Huan of the city of Tuyang, and you intercept Rhode-Dick halfway along the way to convey my message," said Burke. Rhode-Dick should have left for Wang Du, and General Huan will be here soon. Pharaoh is currently in charge of the guards in Wang Du, and there are some things that cannot be blatantly taken lightly. For the time being, I went to see the Secretary of State for Military Affairs, Longteng, and put him under house arrest and wrote to Huen. ”

……

Rhode-Dick was ordered to hurry to the city of Wangdudis and join the palace to meet Pharaoh. The main cleric, Ibin, was right to speculate that Erlacht was trying to trick Rhode-Dick into the king's control before dealing with him. The consequences of this were unpredictable, with some suggesting that Rhode-Dick pretend to be ill, and others suggesting that he simply take the Ann-La regiment with him.

Rhode-Dick shook his head: "Now that I've made up my mind, I'll face it. Everyone knows I've just been promoted to a great samurai, so why pretend to be sick? Just go. I just promulgated a message. How can I move troops without treason? You don't have to worry about me. I've contacted many officials in every city and in every king's capital to figure out what to do. ”

Medanzo asked him, "Lord City Lord, have you decided to go to Wangdu? ”

Rod Dick nodded, “Yes, we're leaving tomorrow! ”

“I'll accompany you with Medanzo," said George, laughing. "Of course, the Angela Regiment is difficult to move, but the Lord of the City can't go without close friends. ”

Rhode-Dick left Cape Town State with more than a dozen people, walking along the official path and accepting hospitality from officials from all along the way, both publicly and privately, and Medanzo and George accompanied him along the way. Rhode-Dick met Daya Tulang and General Huan in Monfis State and received a message from Burke.

Huan had just received a letter from his father, Longteng, asking him to meet Wang Du, so he accompanied Rod Dick on a boat ride along the Ronnie Divine River from Dreamfield City. Officials like them cross the border and naturally receive a variety of official hospitality along the way, which adds a lot of subtlety in this extraordinary period.

On the face of it, the two adults were quiet and went to Wang Du for their official and private affairs, and they came along the Ronnie River, but caused a dark flow of Ecu as a whole.

……

His Majesty the Pharaoh sent a high priest, Burke, to lead the "greeting”, and Rod-Dick and Huan were placed under house arrest as soon as they entered the city, and according to Burke, His Majesty left both adults with the king to discuss important matters.

Immediately after the arrival of one of the three most important sacrificial ceremonies of each year, the High Priest, who presides over the ceremony, convenes important officials and the elders of the seminary to discuss the ceremony and report the results to Pharaoh. Some important arrangements also need to be decided by Pharaoh himself.

There are three high priests of the Temple of the Ehud, and the most important sacrificial ceremony every year is also three times, each time by the chief priests of the Pharaoh leader group, and the three high priests take turns presiding over the ceremony, this time coinciding with Burke's turn. Pharaoh handed over one of the most elite court guards to Burke, and gave Burke a list of them, the most important of which was Walter, to take advantage of the opportunity to bring together public officials and the senators of the Academy of Theology to discuss the ceremony.

Pharaoh received news of the promulgation of the Oracle by Rhode-Dick, and drove him back from New Town, nominally for the sacrifice of the Great Festival, but had secretly placed a net, waiting to be closed. His reaction was neither unpleasant nor harsh, and even different ways of dealing with the various rebels had been conceived.

Longteng's father and son could not be killed for the time being, and he wanted to seal the throne, find an excuse to bring him to New Capital house arrest, promote other family generals to the ranks of Isis Legion and Ann La Legion, and appoint a new Imperial Minister of Military Affairs. Walder was old enough to claim that the Great Mage had been summoned by the Spirit, had completed his life's journey, and had held a ceremony of the highest standard. As for Rhode-Dick being a problem, he must be executed on a proper charge!

……

This is the day that Burke gathered people to discuss the Great Festival, and Pharaoh received constant reports in the palace, all of whom went to the place where Burke was sitting in the temple. The people to go to, the arrangements to be made, there was no unusual movement outside. The lack of movement is the best move, indicating that everything is going well.

This evening, Pharaoh sent out his inner servants and waited for something in the sleeping room. His mood was restless, and Burke should send someone to repay the results. But there was no latest news until the night, and Pharaoh couldn't sit down. He was about to send someone to ask, and suddenly heard a group of people's footsteps coming from outside the sleeping palace!

Who broke into the palace at night? The inmates will never make such a sound, nor will the guards who patrol the palace be able to arrive in queues! Erlacht screamed, but no one responded, and even the two great magicians responsible for protecting him appeared silently to have disappeared.

At this point, Pharaoh heard the high priest of Burke shouting outside the bedroom gate: "Walder, chief elder of the Ecumenical Academy, leading the high priests and the senators of the Academy of Theology, Secretary of State for Military Affairs Longteng, leading Huanhuan, Dick and his two corps leaders to meet with His Majesty and discuss important matters with His Majesty! ”

Upon hearing this, Erlacht Pharaoh felt nothing but cold hands and feet, buzzing in his head, and his whole body was numb as if something was going away and draining all his strength. What kind of meeting is this? The rebels, who thought they were already in prison, were taken to the bedroom gate by Burke at this moment.

……

There was a bloodless coup d 'état in Ecuit, planned by Burke, one of the three high priests of the kingdom, who retired in the middle of the night and whose nephew and son-in-law, Tutanhart, a minor, became the new Pharaoh.

The name Tutanhart, which dates from Elaht and means "heir to Sett's glory”, has a tradition of intimate marriage since ancient times. Tutanhart is both Elaht's nephew and married to Elaht's daughter. After Tutankhamun took office, he changed his name to Tutankhamun, meaning "Guardian of Amun Glory”.

The name of the new Pharaoh is naturally intended to echo the message of Ann Ra, symbolizing the recognition of the status of the Lord God of the Kingdom of Amun, who also inherited and replaced Ann Ra in human sacrifice. Immediately after the sacrificial ceremony, Ecumene “reported” all this to the god at the ceremony, and Tutankhamun officially succeeded him.

Significant adjustments were also made at the senior level in Ecu, where Rhode-Dick was promoted to Prime Minister and was the auxiliary minister to the young new Pharaoh. Rhode-Dick wanted to make an excuse, but George said to him, "Humility is a virtue, Ken is another virtue, and it's often harder to do it than humility.” Rhode-Dick thought back and accepted the new position with great pleasure.

Longteng returned to his hometown and was promoted to the rank of Secretary of State for Military Affairs. Burke remains a high priest of the Kingdom and has been promoted to the rank of Chief High Priest. Original Cape City state priest Yibin, promoted to Chief High Priest of the Temple of Amon in Dreamfield City, still the main priest of the An-La Regiment. The Temple of Seth has become history, when Isis Temple is now known as Amon Temple.

Amon and Ann La are considered the same god, called “Amon-La," and the clergy, when writing the god, canceled the connector in the name Ann La and wrote it as "Allah.” At the official sacrificial ceremony of Ecu, the priests called the Lord God by name of Amon!

Rhode-Dick and Burke, among others, did not kill the King on the spot, and Erlacht lived a life of solitary confinement in the Deep Palace, eventually ending in depression. His soul was also summoned to the Underworld, but the Underworld was already a hell created by Amon.

……

Just on the day the new Pharaoh Tutankhamun officially announced his succession to the sacrificial ceremony in Deeds City, Amun, who had just been proclaimed lord of the kingdom during the coup d 'état, was walking on the outskirts of the city of Monfis. Water waves are cool and windy, sailing boats are passing around, and smoke is rising over the fields in the distance.

Amon looked like he was traveling in the suburbs, but at his feet was a wave on the Ronnie River, and the boatmen passing by could not see the spirits walking through the waves.

Amon was surrounded by another god who walked with Artemis. The wind touched Artemis silver gauze robe, depicting her fine figure, the green cape rising in the wind, gently pulling Amon's cheek from time to time.

Amon looked across the bank at the smoke and asked Artemis, “So go back to the place, Goddess Best, what's your sentiment? ”

Artemis masked his smile: "You call me Best again at this time? ”

Amon: “If it wasn't for Best, why did we go to the Underworld? ”

Artemis held Amon's arm tight: "For Amon God's sake! If Osiris does not accept your guidance, how do you integrate the kingdom of Ann La? Oh, I almost forgot, Allah is about to be your name too. ”

Ammon turned around and said: “I am still the main god of the Nine Legions, I can allow you to enter the Nine Legions, but according to the oath of joining the Divine Legion, I cannot help you when the gods outside the Divine Legion challenge the gods of my same Divine Legion, such as you challenge Osiris. What if you go into the Underworld and you want to settle with Osiris? ”

Artemis turned his head and glanced at him: "Are you worried I'm not an opponent of Osiris? ”

Amon: “If it's about magic, I don't know who's strong or weak. If it's about achievement, you're on top of Osiris. If you fight somewhere else, you must win. But if in the Underworld, he can use more power than you, and you, as the Creator, have some means that humans cannot carry out. As long as he stands on the scales that the artifact turns into, you must not be an opponent. Once the Best Goddess, should know that very well. ”

Artemis smiled. “That's why I'm pulling you together. According to the divine oath, if I challenge Osiris, you can't help me. But if you challenge Osiris, I can help you! I think this vow is the funniest pact between the gods. ”

Amon laughed, “Funny is funny, but it doesn't make any sense. The problem with a divine system necessarily starts from within, otherwise how can you find a god to start with? ”

Artemis' naughty wink: “I found it, or the Lord! ”

Amon turned around and looked at her: "You didn't find it, you met it. ”

Artemis: “If you and Osiris do it in the Underworld, you can't beat him...”

Amon interrupted her words: "You underestimate me too much! ”

Artemis laughed again and rubbed his cheek against Amon's shoulder: “Then I came to see the noise. ”

Amon couldn't help but rub her cheeks against her hair: "Just like Schrödinger used to, I fight, you help watch the noise? If I can't beat him, call the kitten and run? ”

Artemis asked with a smile, "Can you scream? ”

Ammon replied, "I didn't go to the Underworld to fight Osiris, I went to prove an achievement. I will merge the kingdoms of Ann-La and Anu with my kingdom, before I merge the underworld of Osiris with heaven and hell. There is no other thing that can be done in the human race but in the eternity of immortality. ”

Artemis wonders: “Heaven and hell? ”

Amon smiled: "Aren't you going to see the noise? Then we'll see! ”

They have arrived in the downstream delta of the Ronnie River, where running rivers are spreading in a fan-shaped fashion, and it is not the season of flooding, where large stretches of beach paint emerge along the entrance to the sea, dividing the Ronnie River into many complex tributaries. There is a tributary with steep beaches on both sides of the bank, deep rivers and very fast flow rates with very little sound.

Amon and Artemis stopped walking on foot and stood quietly on the water, suddenly disappearing into the sun. They entered the spatial junction of the Underworld, and the river was still this river, but the river water seemed to be refluxing, and the heavens and the earth came face to face like a silent picture, and the river was forked forward, and the center was a piece of land.

Amonla lifted Artemis' hand, as if it touched the silent world, and the two jumped out of the painting and climbed the riverbank. When he heard a roar, a tall three-headed giant dog appeared before the two gods, and as soon as he saw Amon, he rolled down to look like a young man, wearing a golden armor and a long whip with a thorn in his hand.

He put away his long whip and prayed, "Lord, are you here to find the god of the underworld? ”

Artemis stood next to Amon and raised his finger to him, “Tiffan, do you still recognize me? ”

Tiffan stunned: “Who are you, Goddess? ”

Artemis replied: "Once upon a time, I stood in your position guarding the gates of the Underworld, leading the dead in the realm of God, when my name was Best. ”
