275, King Tutankhamun

The former commander of the Isis Legion was the eighth-level warrior Longteng. He was born into a military aristocratic family, and Huanzhang was the son of Longteng and is now a great warrior. Longteng is almost seventy years old this year and has been promoted to Minister of the E-Ju Army and is currently in the capital.

It is not easy for Ellacht to touch Longteng and his son. They have great power in the army, and Huanzhang has heavy troops in his hands. If they are not done well, it will incite a mutiny. The Pharaoh planned to recruit Longteng into the palace and put him under house arrest, and then forced Longteng to write a letter to trick Huanzhang into the royal capital and deal with it.

Then another unfavorable news came to Pharaoh. It is said that the actions of the Cape City-State and the City-State of Mengfeis were secretly supported by the chief veteran of the Eju Theological Academy and the great master of the great master Wald, and then it attracted the imitation of other city-State states.

Pharaoh Elacht felt deeply fear. Representatives of rebellion appeared in the bureaucratic group, military group and priest group. If he did not quickly suppress it with thunder means, his real doomsday would soon come.

The great magician Burke, who had a grudge against Amon, has now been promoted to the high priest of the main temple of Eju. The shocked and angry Pharaoh sent people to find Burkemi Shang and made many promises in private, hoping that Burke would play a vital role in this extraordinary moment and do a few things for him.

...

After meeting the Pharaoh, Burke returned to the temple from the palace, his face was gloomy. The confidant priest asked him what he had talked to the Pharaoh. Burke was silent for a long time before answering: "Your Majesty is crazy!"

The confidant has been following Burke for many years and is a trustworthy follower. He frowned and said, "The situation is clear now. More than a dozen city-states have issued the oracle of Anla, but everyone has given face to the monarch and did not say that the Pharaoh had issued a secret order to destroy the oracle records. If your Majesty is wise, he should follow the flow and admit this oracle, formally promulgated in the form of a kingdom decree, and then announce the change of the number and abdication. Perhaps there is still a way out."

Burke smiled bitterly and said, "Acknowledging that the oracle is unstoppable, but do you want the Pharaoh to abdicate voluntarily? Do you think this is the only way out for Pharaoh to retreat, but Your Majesty himself would not think so. Even if he really does this, will there be a good end after abdicating? Your Majesty wants to struggle dyingly. Even if his life is not guaranteed and he is cursed by the gods, he still has to take the rebels to be buried with him! What's more, he is thinking about how to save the situation and plotting with me how to suppress it."

The confidant took a breath and said, "Your Majesty is really crazy! Will he deal with Longteng and his son, Rod Dick, and even the great master Wald? If you plan and implement this matter, it is not them who are buried with the Pharaoh, but you!"

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

The confidant reminded him with concern: "I remember when you were the high priest of the Temple of Isis, Amon had just arrived at Eju. The great master Julian sent someone to chase him, and a secret letter to you later fell into Mary's hands. You have an old grudge with Amon. What should you do if you don't support Pharaoh at this time?"

Burke narrowed his eyes: "I am not really sad about Amon. If he can't let go of this holiday, how can he be called a god? There is one thing you must figure out, An-La did issue an oracle. I am a priest and can only do what I should do, not to mention that Elacht is at the end of the end? I cannot support Pharaoh whether it is a wise choice or his own duty."

The confidant asked again: "Sir, what do I need me to do for you?"

Burke pondered: "You go to Meng Feisi immediately to meet the Lord Tu Yang City and General Huanzhang, and at the same time intercepted Rod Dick halfway and told me the message. Rod Dick should have set out to the capital, and General Huanzhang will come soon. The Pharaoh is still in control of the imperial guards in the capital, and some things cannot be openly and rashly. I will meet the Minister of Military Affairs Long Teng as Pharaoh wants to put him under house arrest and write a letter to Huanzhang."

...

Rhode Dick received an order and asked him to rush to the city of Kings and destiny to report his duties and enter the palace to meet the pharaoh. The main priest Yi Bin's guess was indeed correct. Elacht wanted to trick Rhode Dick into the capital to control it before dealing with it. The consequences of this were unpredictable. Some suggested that Rhode Dick pretend to be sick, while others suggested that he simply lead the An-La Legion to set off.

Rhode Dick shook his head and said, "Since I have decided, I will face it. Everyone knows that I have just been promoted to a great warrior, so why should I pretend to be sick? Just go. I just issued an oracle and did not treason. How can I mobilize the garrison without authorization? Don't worry about me. I have contacted many officials from various city-states and royal capitals. I have a clear idea of ​​what to do."

Medanzo asked him: "Master Lord, have you decided to go to the capital?"

Rhode Dick nodded and said, "Yes, I'll set out tomorrow!"

George smiled and said, "I will accompany you with Medanzo. It is natural that An-La's legion is not easy to mobilize, but the city lord cannot be without his personal follower."

Rhode Dick took more than a dozen people to leave the Cape City State, walked along the official road, and received hospitality from the city states along the way. He talked about a lot of things both publicly and privately, and Medanzo and George also accompanied him all the way. Rhode Dick met Lord Daya Tuyang and General Huanzhang in Mengfeis City State, and also received a secret report from Burke.

Huanzhang had just received a letter from his father Long Teng, asking him to meet him in the capital, so he walked with Rhode Dick and set out from Mengfeisi City to take a boat along the Ronnie God River. Officials like them passed by, and naturally had various official social receptions along the way. Now it is an extraordinary period, and this reception adds many subtle meanings.

On the surface, the two adults were as calm as usual, but they were going to Wangdu for official and private affairs respectively. They came along the Ronnie River, but they caused the undercurrent of the entire Eju.

...

His Majesty Pharaoh sent the high priest Burke to lead the guards to "welcome". Rod Dick and Huanzhang were placed under house arrest as soon as they entered the city. According to Burke, His Majesty left these two adults in the king and had important matters to discuss.

Then one of the three most important sacrifice ceremonys in Eju every year was coming. According to convention, the high priest who was responsible for presiding the ceremony would summon important officials and the elders of the Academy of Divine Arts to discuss the ceremony and report the results to Pharaoh. Some important arrangements would need to be decided by the Pharaoh himself.

There are three high priests in the main temple of Eju, and the most important sacrifice ceremony is three times a year. Each time, the pharaoh led the ministers to preside over the ceremony. The three high priests took turns to preside over the ceremony. This time it happened to be Burke's turn. Pharaoh handed over the most elite palace guards to Burke's command and gave Burke a list, intending to take advantage of the opportunity to summon the officials and the elders of the Academy of Divinity to discuss the ceremony, and to take down these people one by one, the most important of which was Wald.

The Pharaoh received the news that Rhodes Dick had issued an oracle without authorization and rushed back to the city of Des from Xindu, in name only for the sacrifice ceremony, but he had secretly set up a net and was waiting to close it. His reaction was very fast, his methods were not bad, and he had even thought of different ways to deal with various rebels.

Long Teng and his son cannot be killed for the time being, and they will be given a title, find an excuse to take them to Xindu to house arrest, promote generals from other families to become commanders of the Isis Legion and the An-La Legion, and also appoint the new minister of the Emperor. Wald is old and claims to the outside world that this great magician has been summoned by the gods, has completed his life journey, and has held the highest-standard memorial service. As for Rhode Dick, it is a problem and must be executed on an appropriate charge!

...

This day was the day when Burke summoned everyone to discuss the matters of the ceremony. The Pharaoh received constant secret reports in the palace. Everyone was there to go where Burke discussed the matter in the temple. Everyone who should go there went, and the arrangements they should do were made. There was no abnormal movement outside. No movement was the best movement, which meant that everything was going smoothly.

That night, the Pharaoh sent out all the eunuchs and was waiting for something in the bedroom. He was restless and Burke should have sent someone to repay the result. But there was no latest news until the night was over. The Pharaoh couldn't sit still and was about to send someone to ask, but suddenly he heard the footsteps of a group of people coming from outside the bedroom!

Who broke into the bedroom at night? The eunuch would never make such a sound, and the guards patrolling the palace could not line up to arrive here! Elacht hurriedly shouted, but no one responded. Even the two great palace masters responsible for protecting him seemed to disappear silently.

At this moment, the Pharaoh heard the High Priest Burke shouting loudly outside the bedroom gate: "Walde, the chief elder of the Eju Theological Academy, lead the high priests and the elders of the Theological Academy, the military ministers Long Teng, the leader of the Linghuanzhang and Dick to meet His Majesty, and discuss with His Majesty if you have important matters!"

When he heard this, Pharaoh Elacht felt his hands and feet cold, his mind buzzed, and his whole body felt numb as if something was going away, draining all his strength. This was not a meeting. The rebel who originally thought he was imprisoned was taken to the gate of the bedroom by Burke.

...

A bloodless court coup occurred in Eju. Its planner was Burke, one of the three high priests of the kingdom. Elakht announced his abdication late at night. His nephew and son-in-law, and Tutanhart, who was still underage, became the new pharaoh.

The name Tutanhat was called Elacht, which means "the successor of the glory of Seth". The Eju royal family has had a tradition of intermarriage with close relatives since ancient times. Tutanhat was not only Elacht's nephew, but also married Elacht's daughter. After Tutanhat ascended the throne, he changed his name to Tutankhamun, which means "the guardian of the glory of Amon".

The name of the new pharaoh was naturally to echo the oracle of Allah, symbolizing the recognition of the status of the Lord God of the Kingdom of Amon. At the same time, the God of Amon also inherited and replaced Allah in the sacrifices on earth. Immediately after the ceremony of sacrifice, the ministers of Eju "reported" all this to the gods at the ceremony, and Tutankhamun officially succeeded to the throne.

The senior management of Eju also made major adjustments. Rhode Dick was promoted to prime minister and was the regent minister around the young new pharaoh. Rhode Dick originally wanted to refuse, but George said to him: "Humility is a virtue, and being willing to take responsibility is another virtue, and taking responsibility is often more difficult than being humble." Rhode Dick thought about it and accepted the new position very happily.

Long Teng Yin retired to his hometown, Huanzhang was promoted to the Minister of Military Affairs, and Burke was still the high priest of the kingdom and was promoted to the chief high priest. Yi Bin, the former chief priest of the cape city, was promoted to the chief high priest of the Temple of Amon in Mengfeisi City, and still served as the chief priest of the An-La Legion. The Temple of Set has become history, and the Temple of Isis was now called the Temple of Amon.

Some people regard Amon and An La as the same god, called him "Amon-La". Some priests canceled the connection talisman in the title of An La while writing the divine text and wrote it as "Allah". At the official sacrificial ceremony in Eju, the priests called the Lord God from then on Amon!

Rod Dick, Burke and others did not kill the regicide on the spot. Elacht lived a life of imprisonment in the deep palace and eventually died of depression. His soul was also summoned into the underworld, but at that time the underworld was already the hell created by Amon.

...

On the day when the new Pharaoh Tutankhamun officially announced his succession, Amon, who had just been regarded as the king of the kingdom during the coup, was walking outside the suburbs of Mengfeisi City. The water waves were rippling and the cool breeze was blowing, and the sailing boats were flowing around him, and smoke rose from the farm in the distance.

Amon looked like he was on an outing, but he was stepping on the waves of the Ronnie River. The boats passing by, but the boatmen could not see the god passing by.

There was another god beside Amon, who walked with Artemis with his arms. The wind blew the silver robe like Artemis, depicting her beautiful figure. The green shawl was raised in the wind, gently teasing Amon's cheeks from time to time.

Amon looked at the crowds on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and asked Artemis, "Revisiting the old place, Goddess Best, what do you feel?"

Artemis covered his mouth and smiled, "You call me Best again at this time?"

Amon: "If it weren't for Best, why would we go to the Underworld?"

Artemis held Amon's arm tightly: "It's for the God of Amon! If Osiris does not accept your guidance, how do you merge with the kingdom of God of An-La? Oh, I almost forgot that Allah is about to be your name."

Amon changed the topic and said, "I am still the main god of the Nine-Link Gods. I can allow you to enter the Nine-Link God Realm, but according to the oath of joining the Gods, when the gods outside the Gods challenge the gods with the same gods as me, for example, if you challenge Osiris, I cannot help you. What should I do if you enter the underworld and want to settle the accounts with Osiris?"

Artemis turned his head and glanced at him: "Are you worried that I am not Osiris's opponent?"

Amon: "If you talk about magic power, I can't tell who is stronger and weak. If you talk about success, you are above Osiris. If you change the place to compete, you will definitely win. But if you are in the underworld, he can use much more powerful than you. Although you are the Creator, some methods cannot be used in the world. As long as he stands on the balance transformed into by the artifact, you will definitely not be your opponent. The former Goddess Best should be very clear about this."

Artemis smiled and said, "That's why I want to bring you together. According to the oath of the gods, if I challenge Osiris, you can't help me. But if you challenge Osiris, I can help you! I think this oath is the funnyest agreement between gods."

Amon also smiled and said, "Funny is funny, but it is not unreasonable. The problems that exist in a divine system must start from the inside, otherwise how can you find a god to take action first?"

Artemis blinked mischievously: "I found it, but I'm still the Lord God!"

Amon turned his head and looked at her: "It's not that you found it, it's that you met it."

Artemis: "If you and Osiris fight in the underworld and can't beat him..."

Amon interrupted her and said, "You underestimate me too much!"

Artemis smiled again, pressed his cheek against Amon's shoulder and said, "Then I'm just here to watch the fun."

Amon couldn't help rubbing her cheeks against her hair: "Just like Schrödinger used to, I'm fighting, can you help watch the fun? If I can't beat someone, I'll shout "Kitty run away?"

Artemis asked with a smile, "Can you shout?"

Amon replied, "I went to the underworld not to duel with Osiris, but to confirm an achievement. I will merge the kingdom of God with Anra and Anu with my heaven. Before that, I will first merge the underworld with heaven and hell. This can be done in the world, and only in the eternity of birth and death can one do another."

Artemis said in surprise: "Heaven and Hell?"

Amon smiled: "Don't you want to watch the fun? Then wait and see!"

While they were talking, they had arrived at the lower reaches of the Ronnie River. The endless river water spreads in a fan shape here. It is not the season of flooding. Large tidal flats are exposed at the estuary of the sea, which divides the Ronnie River into many complex tributaries. Among them, the tidal flats on both sides of the tributary are steep, and the river water is very deep, with extremely fast flow but almost no sound.

Amon and Artemis no longer walked, stood quietly on the water and followed the flow, and suddenly disappeared under the sun. They entered the spatial barrier of the underworld, and the river was still the same river, but the river seemed to flow backwards, and the heaven and earth came towards us like a silent painting. The river forked in front, and there was a piece of land in the center.

Amon pulled Artemis's hand and raised his foot, as if touching this silent world. The two of them seemed to jump out of this painting and climbed to the river bank. With a roar, a tall three-headed giant dog appeared in front of the two gods. As soon as it saw Amon, it fell to the ground and rolled into the shape of a young man, wearing golden armor and holding a long whip with thorns.

He put away his whip and saluted, "Master God, are you here to find the God of the Underworld?"

Artemis stood beside Amon, raised his hand and pointed at him, "Tifeng, do you still recognize me?"

Tifeng was stunned: "This goddess, who are you?"

Artemis replied, "I used to stand in your position to guard the portal of the underworld and guide the undead in the divine realm. At that time, my name was Best."
