Chapter 68

Rod Dick has the skill of a wise statesman who can guide an unexpected incident in the most favorable direction. There was no script for this scene in advance, but if a dramatist was allowed to design it, the best effect would be just like this. When he took over the staff and heard the crowd cheering, the prestige of the gods also increased the prestige of the city Lord. Amun Ben, kneeling behind the guard, was the most important man, but at the moment he seemed to have become a trickster.

Rod Dick, after thanking the gods, got up and led the people to Amun with his staff. He held out a hand to help him up and asked, "where did you find the last words and relics of Lord Nero in the cave?"

Amun replied, "in the mountains on the West Bank of the Euphrates, there are few people and only wild animals. I happened to see them because they fell off the cliff after chasing them. There are handwriting in a cave under the cliff, with a staff and a ring beside it With these words, he took out the ring and gave it back to rod dick in public.

Rod Dick's hand sank slightly. The weight of this ring is not light. It is obviously a space magic tool containing things. Rod Dick himself is a sixth level warrior. He has learned the first level magic, but he has no ability to use space magic tools. So he will feel heavy when he starts, but he doesn't know what is inside.

Fayol Judas asked, "Amun, you are a hunter. How can you read?"

Amun did not have a good impression on the clerk. He calmly replied, "I am a hunter, but my grandfather is not. He is a punished clerk."

Fayol Judas frowned and asked, "the mountains on the West Bank of the Euphrates should be within the kingdom of hathia. You are a hattite. Even if you can read, how can you know the writing of eju?"

Amun explained naturally: "master Nero's last words are written in two different languages."

Of course, he can't tell the whole truth. This is actually the old Madman's experience when he saw the last words of great grandfather of medanzo in the mountains. Amun just borrowed it and changed it into master Nero's last words. Bell's message in the mysterious cave was written in two languages. In the face of Judas's interrogation, Amun readily answered.

As for Nero's last words, they are completely true. Amon did not make up anything else. There is a message left by Nero in the pupil of the earth inlaid on the staff. As long as rod Dick lets people verify it, it can't be fake. However, Amun can't say that he has read this information, otherwise his identity will be exposed.

The languages of different countries in Tianshu are different, but the languages are similar, so there is no barrier to communication. Amun did not conceal his identity as a stranger, because his accent still had traces. When rod Dick realized that it was not suitable to ask too many questions here, and it was not a common phenomenon in the crowd of people, he took Amun's arm and said, "this righteous man has come from afar. Don't stand in the square and talk about it in the temple."

Lord Dick didn't go home in the afternoon. He changed his mind and returned to Horus temple. All the adults followed him and climbed the long stone steps. The people were still cheering.

Fayol Judas walked behind, always felt that Amun's accent was very familiar, and he was very impressed in his memory. He looked at Amun's back. Although he was standing beside Lord Roddick and surrounded by noble adults, the young man had a steady step and a straight waist. He didn't look embarrassed and frightened at all. His mind was like a flash of light. He suddenly remembered something!

Two years ago, in the remote and desolate town of DUK, one of Fayol Judas's most proud deeds was that he took away the tears of the gods which had just been mined out at the first time, which made Lord rod Dick's plan to elect the holy daughter a success. As for the miner who mined the tears of the gods, it doesn't matter. The God stone in Duke town must have been mined by a miner. It's just his luck.

But Fayol always remembered that when he walked into the low house, the boy with a sledgehammer didn't kneel down for the first time. He stood very straight in front of the anvil, just like this, but he was not fully grown up at that time. In my recollection, the young man only said three words at that time, and Fayol Judas has never forgotten --

"who are you? Come in like this?"

"When mining God stone, you must stand to wave the hammer. Otherwise, how can you see it taken out intact?"

"My name is amon. People here call me amon."

Yes, that's him. The boy just said to Aristotle that his name was amon! ——Fayol Judas screamed wildly in his heart. He finally recognized Amun, the young miner who had mined the tears of the gods in DUK. I thought I would never meet again, but I didn't expect to see him again. At the moment, he was walking arm in arm by adult dick in the cheering of the people.

Will you tell Lord Dick? If said, amon would receive more thanks. But Fayol Judas was worried about one thing. Lord Dick had given him thirty gold coins as a reward to the miners, and he only gave amon thirty silver coins. This was a small matter, and no one would pursue a clerk for occasionally enriching his own pockets. But in today's situation, Fayol Judas would not have the face to face if he said it publicly.Many so-called "little things" are like this. They seem to be indifferent, but they are magnificently turned out to be a kind of defilement of noble conduct. Listen to the cheers of all the people. In this case, if you talk about the past, Fayol Judas will not look up again.

Does Amun know himself? Fayol Judas said to himself in his heart that he had forgotten. But reason told Judas that it was impossible. If he was the miner, he would never forget that scene. Will amon talk about the past later? I hope he won't talk about it. I'm afraid he doesn't need to talk about the details of the thirty silver coins.

Last time he got the tears of the gods, Roddick gave thanks to the mayor of dasti, but this time, only Amun himself would be appreciated. Returning the staff of the LORD God in front of the people on the temple square is perfect. Compared with the bounty to be given, thirty silver coins are not worth mentioning. The child must not know that rod Dick gave 30 gold coins at the beginning. ——Fayol Judas continued to comfort himself in his heart.

At the same time, Judas thought to himself, this child is too lucky! It was he who exploited the tears of the gods to make rod Dick's plan successful. Today, he returned Nero's lost staff in public, which made rod Dick's reputation reach a new peak. He was like a God who cared for rod Dick. Why did all the good things happen to a humble little miner? This is not fair!

Wasn't DUK destroyed by floods and no one survived? Why isn't he dead!

No one knew that Fayol Judas had so many thoughts in his heart. The long steps in front of the temple seemed so long and the weather was not hot, but Judas's forehead was dripping with sweat.

Not only Fayol Judas recognized Amun, but also Aristotle, who saved the child in the square and sent him to be a servant to Mary for three days. But Amun didn't mention the past and didn't show his understanding of Aristotle when he saw rod Dick. Obviously, he didn't want to mention it again. Moreover, Amun's appearance changed greatly and he could hardly recognize it.

It is said that Duke town has been destroyed by the flood, so the surviving child must have experienced too many hardships, and it is normal that he does not want to mention the sad past. Who can have no secret that he doesn't want to mention any more? As long as he doesn't say it, Aristotle doesn't want to break it. After all, it's amon's own business.

Aristotle also felt that this young miner named Amun was really like a God who cared for rod Dick. He not only mined the tears of the gods at the most appropriate time, but also sent back the staff of the LORD God at the most appropriate time. As rod Dick's most valued and trusted aide, Aristotle was well aware of what the young city Lord had been worrying about.

The Empire of eju was powerful, but the Cape city-state on the northeast border was relatively weak. Once there was a war conflict between the neighboring states of Baron Kingdom and hathi Kingdom, the promontory city-state would be quite passive.

The great hero Gilgamesh and enqi, the first warrior on the mainland, sat down in the city-state of Uruk in the kingdom of Baren, holding the throat of the Euphrates River, and no one dared to attack them. But if they attack the Egyptians westward, how can the promontory city-state resist it? The relationship between Baron Kingdom and eju empire is relatively peaceful, and there is no great danger of war for the time being, but on the other hand, the kingdom of hathi may be uncertain.

On the surface, the hathian kingdom had been subject to the Egyptian empire for many years, but it was because of their dissatisfaction with the fate of this submission that they kept accumulating the strength of resistance. A great flood cut off the land transportation and made the promontory city-state safe for the time being, but the flood could not last forever. The soldiers in the city of Syria are well-equipped, and the most important thing is to unite as one.

It is said that Gore, the chief god there, led the people to keep the city, and later became a nine level master of divinity. His reputation is incomparable. He has authority over the gods in the city of Syria. This kind of cohesion of the people's will is the most terrible weapon in the war. It can make the people go towards one goal even though they are willing to die.

In the battle of thousands of troops, the personal strength of the top mainland strongmen, such as Gilgamesh, enqidu and gelie, may not be the decisive factor. What they are really powerful is the appeal and cohesion among the people. By contrast, rod Dick was also a city Lord with great talent, but he could not reach that height. So when Amun returned the staff in public, Roddick would be so excited that the city Lord, who had always been calm, even his hands were trembling.

A strong Empire and a relatively weak city-state are in a very important strategic position and are facing potential war threats. This is what rod Dick is most worried about. We can't blame the city Lord for his long-term thinking. Once something happens, he can't escape. He is not only the city Lord, but also the territory of his family generations in the promontory city-state.

On the other hand, personal strength is not the decisive factor to win in a thousand troops, but it is also a symbol and a guarantee to stabilize people's hearts. After Nero's death, the promontory city-state had no great magician for more than 30 years, which was obviously inferior to the city-state of uluk in Baron and the city of Syria in hathi.

Since Mary became a saint, she has gradually mastered some important affairs of the temple of Memphis Isis. Rod Dick has repeatedly applied to send a great magician to sit on the promontory temple, but there has been no response. Not long ago, the virgin finally ordered a messenger to send an eight level master to inspect the temple in the frontier.Rod Dick had made every effort to receive him. He wanted to take this opportunity to ask the great magician to stay as the chief god of the promontory city-state. But how do you say that? Who would like to leave the prosperous and comfortable mengfeisi to live on the promontory for a long time. A level 8 divinity can live comfortably anywhere. Rod - Dick, who arrived just before the Lord's wand, was offered a good opportunity to fall with the divine master.

Amun naturally did not know that he came in such a complicated background. In fact, he always had a good impression on rod Dick. It was because of the arrival of the city Lord that Amun had the opportunity to know echo. Therefore, there was always a sense of gratitude in his heart. Echo was once sent to him by the Lord.

The temple of the promontory city-state is much more magnificent than that of Horus in Duke town. When you enter the main hall, you first worship the statue of Horus in the center. For the first time, Amun carefully looked at the Legendary God. Although there was Horus temple in Duke Town, it was only a symbol of submission to the Egyptian empire, and no one would offer sacrifices spontaneously.

The statue of Horus here is more than 50 feet high, with arms folded in front of the chest, and a pair of huge wings hanging behind the shoulders. The head of an eagle is carved on the human body, and the eyes are sharper than the beak of an eagle. According to legend, Horus' incarnation is an eagle flying in the sky, so the craftsman created such a statue. The huge statue of God has an indescribable sense of oppression, and everyone can't help but worship as soon as they enter the temple.

After worshipping the gods, Amun was asked to sit down in a side hall. Among a group of noble adults, Amun did not look too flattered. He also had a face-to-face talk with the princess of the Kingdom, and walked through the grassland with a goddess in his arms. This kind of scene is nothing.

Rod Dick was a little surprised and said with a smile, "our righteous monk, you have an extraordinary bearing. You are firm and calm. Even if you sit beside the noble adults, you are not at all lost. This is very rare for young people."

Amun bowed over and explained, "I've hunted fierce beasts in dangerous mountains. I've been through countless tests of life and death, and I've rarely been alarmed."

Rod Dick: "Oh, I see. It's luck that makes you! You found that master Nero's last words are also on the way of hunting. Can you tell me in detail what happened? "

Amon changed the time and character of the old Madman's story, and recounted Nero's last words and the course of the event again. Finally, he explained, "I read the words on the cave. Lord Nero hoped that someone would find out and return his relics to the promontory city-state, return the staff to the temple, and return the relics in the ring to his family according to his will."

He did not repeat what he had said in the pupil of the earth, but he did not conceal what he had got. He said about the three scrolls, as long as rod Dick checked the message. Rod Dick was interested in asking, "have you brought the three scrolls? It's nothing else. It's Lord Nero's reward. It's yours. I'm just curious

Amon couldn't take out the three scrolls, and he didn't want to take them out, not to mention two of them had been used up. He replied with regret: "I found the last words of Lord Nero only when I fell off the cliff. The mountain road is very dangerous. When I got out of trouble, I was accidentally cut by thorns, and the three scrolls were lost. Fortunately, the staff and ring were still there."

Rod Dick sighed: "it's a blessing in misfortune. Don't be sad. I'll thank you very much Just a moment, please. We're going to check the information left in the staff. "

It is not difficult to test the information in the staff. As long as you master the medium level information divinity, they are not in front of Amun. Nero's message is very important and may involve some secrets, which is not suitable for a stranger to learn. In a small meditation room in the temple, rod Dick gave the staff to the oldest priest. Not only the chief executive of the city-state, three high priests of the temple, but also several successors of the lington family were present.

Nero is just a name. As a full-time priest who dedicated himself to the gods, he used the name registered in the temple list. People used to call him without the family name. Nero was born in lington family, a great aristocrat of promontory city. Nero himself has no children, but there are nine adult nephews in the family. They should also be present. Rod Dick was very thoughtful and sent a quick horse to pick up all the people he could.

When the priest raised his staff, the voice of Nero more than 30 years ago was echoed in the quiet room: "whoever is lucky to come here and pick up my staff, please listen to my last words. I am Nero, the chief divine officer and seventh level great magician from the Cape city of the Egyptian empire When you return the staff to the promontory temple, please find Lord Dick and ask him to ask a great master of high-level space divinity to take out the will in the ring, read it out in public and do notarization. Lord Dick is trustworthy. "

After listening to the last words, everyone changed color. Nero's last words involve some secrets, including his doubts and hesitation about the gods when he was facing death. These are not suitable for public. The story of bell 30 years ago has been decided by the officials of eju, and the details are not allowed to be circulated to the outside world. Although Nero claimed in his last words that he did not betray the gods, it was not good for his reputation after his death and the influence on the people's heart of the city.The crowd did not speak for a long time. Rod Dick was the first to respond and asked in a low voice, "can the information recorded in the pupil of the earth be erased? We have all heard the last words of Lord Nero, and all the people present are witnesses. That's enough
