Unscathed, the mercenary named Sigurd twisted his neck, which was a little sore from the violent impact just now.
Don't talk about the wound, it's obvious that the dull impact sound can be heard from one or two kilometers away, but for this mercenary, it doesn't seem to exist.
It felt as if the monster didn't feel pain at all, just a puppet acting according to a specific program, and even the clothes didn't wrinkle.
(Is this guy not alive?)
The bandaged man is an important member of the Egyptian association called "Sun Temple". He is also an extreme magician who voluntarily gave up his body and even transformed his soul in order to gain powerful power.
Because, as an elite of the association, he was very aware of how terrifying the attack that just knocked Sigurd into the air was.
Although it has an abnormal impact, the truly terrifying death technique is an attack on the soul.
(Could it be that this guy is actually using the corpse to cast spells indirectly, the body is actually hidden elsewhere, or...)
In the attack just now, in essence, after distorting and refining the mummy's production steps individually, the part of "evisceration" was distorted as an attack.
Seeming to have thought of something again, the man in the bandage turned his attention to Rilkin and the others.
(Could it be that that guy is just a spiritual puppet operated by them, so the soul stripping technique just now is invalid?)
In fact, it is not surprising that he would have such an idea.
After all, "Egyptian mythology" is a religion that affirms birth, evolution, resurrection and reincarnation.
And their association further determined that "body" and "soul" can be managed.
As a result, countless generations of magicians have been exhausted, and countless geniuses have been lost.
It was not until modern times that the original book was finally completed, which gathered the wisdom of all the predecessors since their association had been passed down for thousands of years.
The original author of "Book of Wisdom", "Tetu", is actually a legendary Egyptian magician.
But in the society at that time, having such extraordinary talents would be considered a "miracle".
Therefore, the magician named "Tetu" was mixed into the story of Egyptian mythology and became the god of wisdom.
As for the "Book of Wisdom", it is actually a "magic book" that he devoted his whole life to, and later members will put all their efforts into this special book when they are about to die. The "Original Code" is preserved and passed on to future generations.
In other words, this "original book" called "Book of Wisdom" is the crystallization of thousands of years of painstaking efforts of this branch, and even many Egyptian magic associations and magicians who have disappeared under the torrent of history.
"You have no intention of summoning Anubis, or any god at all."
Saying so, Sigurd has returned to the front of the battlefield.
Slowly raising his right hand, Sigurd looked at the bandaged man who was on high alert.
"Your real purpose is to prove the existence of the kingdom of heaven. Yes..."
The bandaged man's consciousness dissipated in an instant.
Not a hot flame, nor a sharp wind blade.
Even though they were behind Sigurd, Rilkin, Cinderella and the others still felt their souls tremble.
But in a physical sense, the surrounding calm is abnormal.
But from a subjective point of view, all the magicians on the scene can be sure that something must have happened at that moment just now.
Yes, it was at the moment when the man in the bandage turned into powder and was blown away.
"Like those guys from over 4000 years ago..."
Sigurd didn't show any extra expressions, sighed helplessly and looked at the Pyramid of Sand, which had begun to change slightly.
It doesn't seem like he wants to use violence to break through.
"Spanning more than 4000 years, two completely unrelated generations of magicians have almost exactly the same ideas..."
Chapter 230: "Fake Goddess" Nephthys
Originally, the mummy was born out of the idea of "returning the soul that temporarily stayed in the underworld, so as to preserve this body".
That is to say, based on this idea, there is a further theory that "body and soul can be managed".
In Egypt for more than 4000 years, there was a school of magic that wanted to prove this idea in detail.
Their plan is to raise a young girl purely in a greenhouse, and let her grow to a certain age without knowing what is filthy.
Then kill the girl according to the prescribed ritual, take out all the internal organs except the heart, store them in other containers, put sawdust in the corpse to maintain the body shape, and finally wrap it in linen cloth soaked in potion to make a mummy.
At the same time, in order to prevent her from being attacked on Huangquan Road, her buttocks will be sutured with thread.
In "Egyptian Mythology", in order to measure one's own good and evil, the heart will be taken out and weighed, and if it is lighter than a feather, it can enter the kingdom of heaven.
Therefore, the reality of this experiment is to use the heart as a "sender".
Experiments by observing how and where the heart and "something" that escapes from the body go.
The variant given to such an experiment is to use the "girl who can perceive the existence of God" and the "pure saint" as materials to further verify the theory of the existence of the kingdom of heaven.
The French girl has a special physique to play the "Oracle of Joan of Arc", that is to say, she is the girl who is "pure" enough.
Originally, they planned to use her to prove and sacrifice, but they met with desperate resistance from the "story editor", that is, the former "Astrology Brigade".
After losing nearly 20 companions, they still successfully used the girl's characteristics to achieve their goals, and indeed verified the existence of "heaven".
Thus, further planning began.
"Mr. Sigurd, what should we do next?"
Rilkin looked at Sigurd, and then at the pyramid in the distance.
It seems to be asking Sigurd if he wants to break that thing.
"Could it be that there is such an opportunity, don't you want to meet the 'Goddess'?"
Moving his right hand, the taste of sarcasm has no intention of covering up, Sigurd seems to have always had this attitude after clarifying the opponent's plan.
But Rilkin realized another meaning in Sigurd's words.
"Isn't the other party's purpose to prove the existence of the kingdom of heaven?"
"They really didn't intend to 'summon' any of the Egyptian gods."
Sigurd pointed to the pyramid in the distance that started to look strange.
"Because of the loss of a large number of members, they can no longer guarantee that they can still serve a real 'god'. But it is unrealistic to let them retreat like this. Therefore, they retreated to the next best thing... "
"Choose to use the 'Original Code' to create an artificial 'God'..."
Rilkin had heard of man-made saints, man-made angels, man-made demons, man-made valkyries, and even man-made heroic warriors.
But man-made gods are unheard of. After all, this is no longer a standard thing. Even if it is successful, can it really be possible to control "gods" with human technology?
"Do you know what those 'sands' are?"
"?"
Rilkin was dumbfounded by Sigurd's question. After all, from the beginning of the battle, Rilkin had acquiesced that those particles were sand. After all, when talking about Egypt and the pyramids, the first reaction must be deserts or something like that?
"It's the powder made from the mummified corpses of the dead. That is, the pyramid can be said to be a 'heap of the dead'."
"The pyramids are the 'houses' of the dead, and those 'sands' are the dead..."
In fact, when it comes to Egyptian mythology, more stories revolve around the sun god Ra, Osiris or Horus.
The expression of a certain "goddess of the dead" is mostly based on Seth or Anubis.
"You just attacked that pyramid, didn't you?"
"Yes. I'm very sorry."
Smiling wryly, Rilkin also realized that his decision just now was a bit too reckless.
After all, the magic side still uses counter-spells and curse magic quite frequently.
Although in Egypt, curses and the like hardly appear in Egyptian myths, but similar things should be considered to some extent.
In the comparative Egyptian culture, the dead are also respected.
Most of the godheads are somewhat related to the dead.
"It doesn't matter, the result is the same if you attack or not. Although I think they are all brain-dead, it doesn't prevent me from wondering what the brain-dead can do."
Seeing the cracked "Pyramid of Sand", Sigurd sighed helplessly again.
"Why do people always try to modify something on their own body. Couldn't they break through the shackles of the term 'human' without transforming the body or soul?"
"After all, the legendary magician who stepped into the 'God's Realm' doesn't even exist?"
Without answering, Sigurd moved his wrist.
After the unknown attack broke out just now, Sigurd seems to have been flexing his wrist.
Although aware of this, Rilkin and the others just thought it was a subconscious "warm-up action" by Sigurd.
"It doesn't matter, as long as it is a myth that can be recognized, then it is not something that cannot be deciphered. If Christianity is not good, use Buddhism. If Buddhism is not good, use Nordic or Celtic. After all, Egypt is also polytheistic. Definitely the biggest problem."
"The gods of polytheism reinforce each other and build a cultural barrier that is difficult to break through. But relatively speaking, it means that under the polytheistic system, the gods themselves are not perfect."
"Odin, the great god of Northern Europe, was devoured by Fennir. Nuada, the Celtic king of gods, died in battle with the local gods of other regions. Japan also has scumbags like Izanagi, and Amaterasu who can lose their temper God."
The pyramid began to crack, and the cracks quickly spread to the entire structure.
It was as if countless dead were crying and wailing.
That chilling, icy-cold sound didn't seem like something from the underworld at all.
From the crack, something like black mist continuously overflowed, covering everything around it.
And in the center of the black mist, someone walked out from the inside while holding on to the dilapidated "pyramid" wall with one hand.
The powder ground from the corpse moved towards the girl's body along the slender wrist.
The originally unpretentious white long dress was covered up underneath, and the "sand" formed many monochrome but gorgeous decorations on the girl's body.
At this time, the Egyptian female magician with light brown skin was covered with various decorations all over her body.
But in terms of overall appearance and temperament, she is more like a priest than a queen.
The magic power poured into the girl's body continuously, and the terrible pressure made Rilkin and the others subconsciously take a step back even though Sigurd was separated.
In the tense state of everyone, only Sigurd said the name of the "artificial god" created by the female magician's body in an overly calm voice.
"Nefthys, the Egyptian 'goddess of the dead.' So, what do you want to do? A 'fake' goddess?"
