Chapter 600 599. It’s only been three days and you’re still not good? You have to brace yourself.
Murphy once thought that death was a very serious and sad thing, but after hearing Nefertari chatter about the benefits and benefits of becoming an ancient king to Count Sycomael and Countess, the vampire lord suddenly realized
, on this continent, death may be just a stage of life.
After all, just listen to the list of events for gatherings of the dead listed by the mummy priest who has lost his mind.
Not only is there a food tasting session in the Hades plane, but there is also a three-headed dog chariot rally organized by the Tomb Kings who like racing on the Road of the Dead. The most outrageous thing is that Nefertari has sworn that there will be one every year.
Beauty Pageant of the Dead”.
It is said that around the Cold Moon Festival every year, each king of Hades will select a few of the most beautiful zombie brides in his own jurisdiction and send them to the road of the dead. All the kings will select the most beautiful zombie bride together and
Award the opponent the honorary title of "Flower of Hades".
The reason why Nefertari is so keen on this is because her grandmother once won such an honor.
Good guy!
Co-writing is still a “family legacy” in your family, right?
Your grandmother is a beautiful zombie bride, and you are a mummy priest, right? It seems that if you hadn't been so flat, would you have chosen to follow the career path that your grandmother took?
"I always feel weird"
Half an hour later, Murphy, who left Xico City with a strange expression of looking at post-disaster reconstruction, turned to the dumb-faced Tris next to him and said:
"What is the inheritance of death in the Songhai Empire? It sounds very high-end, but if you look closely, you will find that those guys have almost subverted my concept of the world of death. Is this normal?"
Tris had a dull face and didn't answer.
The Scarlet Witch is angry.
Because just now Nefertari and her new friend, Countess Sicomale, commented on Tris’s figure in a very “professional” manner.
Anyway, the mummy priest swore that if Tris was a zombie bride, she would definitely not be able to get the title of "Miss Hades", because although Tris had a good figure, her too-too-double figure did not conform to the traditional aesthetics of the Songhai people.
No woman can remain calm under such a vicious attack, not even a vampire like Tris.
Nefertari did not leave with Tris and Murphy. She had to stay in Xiko City to stabilize the mood of the count and the lady and not be affected. Her dog also had to stay to deter the undead wandering throughout the city.
And destroy the angry spirit rituals hidden throughout the city.
But this is not the torture of exile or imprisonment for Nefertari.
On the contrary, it was more comfortable for her to stay in Xiko City. She had almost been depressed by the mummy girl after staying in Scarlet Castle for a few days.
In her words, she has never seen so many living people gathering together and making noisy noises since she was a child. It was like tens of thousands of ducks quacking, as if happiness belonged to other people and the feelings of each other.
Nor are they consistent.
Nefertari is an undead soul after all, so she would feel uncomfortable staying with the living.
Although the guy with a brain disorder patted his chest and assured Murphy that as long as she was here, Xico City would not interfere with the Black Disaster war, Murphy still had some doubts about whether this guy could complete the mission.
It wasn't until he and Tris teleported back to the Blood Vulture Corridor that Tris recovered from her sulking attitude. She poured herself a glass of wine in Murphy's office, and then slowly answered what Murphy had said before.
That question about the world of the dead.
She said in a long voice:
"You and she are both right, because the appearance of the world of death is not static. From your previous contact with Nefertari, you have probably discovered that the Songhai people have no power system, living conditions, or even life.
The ideas are incompatible with the mainland.
This distinction comes from the Creator's preference for them.
At least that's what the Songhay people themselves claim.
In a broad sense, the world of death should be indifferent, cruel and twisted, but the Songhai people have long worshiped the moon of death, so they do not regard death as a terror and disaster, and can even regard death calmly as the cornerstone of life.
The only way to go.
In the culture of Songhai, they believe that they should worship the benevolent sun while they are alive. Life is like a walk under the sun that must have an end.
The world after death must sing the praises of the moonlight of equality. The moment they set foot on the path of the dead, they will start a second period of life in the underworld to reunite with their family and ancestors until they enter reincarnation.
It is precisely because of this unique culture that the Songhai people's construction of the world of death is filled with a romanticism that I cannot understand. I have seen many poems describing the world of Hades in their eternal library.
I guess the underworld of the Songhai people is as lively and full of fun as the real world.
but!
Only they have all this!
It does not exist in other parts of the continent, and the will of Hades is not kind to the dead in other parts of the continent. Don't pursue death, Murphy!
We do not have the privileges of the Songhai people, and death means the end for us."
"But Nefertari said that once Xiko City becomes the second Holy Land of Death, the Death Moon Sect will take over there, which means that Xiko City will also become part of the Songhai people's concept of life and death."
Murphy tasted the wine with a drop of blood added and said:
"If that day really comes, then the Transians will also be given the same posthumous privileges as the Songhai people because of the existence of the Holy City of Siko, and our people will also be qualified to step into the land of death full of scenes of the afterlife.
In reincarnation.
Just like the benefits Nefertari always talks about, I guess this will become the second wonderful culture that Transians are proud of.
Ha, from this point of view, I should probably thank Dusk for his mischief on this land.
Maybe I should inform Miriam to create a management system for this kind of 'welfare' in advance.
For example, only those who have lived in Transia for many years, how much they have contributed to this land, and how many good deeds they have done are eligible to embark on the Path of the Dead under the management of the Moon of Death Sect after death.
And those bastards who disobey local laws, act recklessly, and like to do bad things will have their left legs bitten off by three-headed dogs after death, and they will crawl, scream, repent, and try to approach the door of the dead.
But that wonderful world will never be open to them.
Well, I'm a genius!"
"You are simply a devil!"
Cui complained without mercy:
"You originally could only make your subjects obey your orders while they were alive, but now they can't get rid of your influence even after death. I think you should be the first to be sent to the Anti-Humanity Tribunal.
But you think so!
The people of the Death Moon Sect are not easy to deal with. Nefertari, who is mentally ill, is just a special case. If you have ever met Priest Bayek, you will know that it is really difficult to realize your idea.
Those old guys are simply the embodiment of the rules of the cold moon and the blazing sun, dogmatists to the extreme, true fundamentalist lunatics.
It is estimated that only a dull guy like Lord Paying can maintain a reasonably good relationship with them."
"Of course not as a vampire."
Murphy snorted, drank the wine in one gulp, then stood up and said:
"But don't forget, Assistant Tris, we have another identity! Didn't Nefertari promise it? We, official personnel in the 'Creator System', will definitely be regarded as ours if we go to their place.
Guests seated.
how?
I, the curator of the Marsh Exhibition Hall, can’t ask my people to enjoy the benefits after death?
Of course I can give them Xiko City, that place is no longer suitable for human survival, but it’s a bit unreasonable that they don’t mean to take my holy city, right?”
"That's true."
Tris couldn't think of a reason to refute it, but she had a headache when she thought that Murphy might have to visit the place of origin in the future.
The Scarlet Witch sighed and said:
"I definitely can't accompany you to the Land of Origin. I guess my wanted order is still on the eternal bounty list of the Death Moon Sect. If I dare to step into that yellow sand, I will definitely be caught and made into a vampire mummy.
Maybe the perverted dead would really be sent to participate in that damn beauty pageant in Hades.
ah.
I have a headache."
"It doesn't matter. My dear can just stay in Transia and help me take charge of the overall situation."
Murphy stepped forward and stretched out his fingers to tease Tris's delicate chin, and lifted up the beautiful face of the Blood Vulture Archduke. He blinked and wanted to kiss this face that he would never get tired of, even Tris herself.
Be prepared.
But the next second, the core orb placed on the table began to beat violently.
Murphy looked back in surprise, picked up the orb and saw an astonishing report.
"Something happened over there in the Blood Flag Highlands!"
The vampire governor turned back to Tris and said:
"The third battle group of Happy Sticks was surrounded by the Dirty Claw Clan of Gnolls. They have already summoned Dorothy and Maxim, and are now summoning Bella and Bernice. According to Adele's report, Happy Sticks
The next target of the summons is likely to be Kudel.
But if it is difficult for them to survive until the third day, they will probably make a desperate call to you directly. They are currently saving support points.
Adele asked me to inform you to prepare for battle."
