The Holy Grail War of God's Blessing

"Adad? That's the Akashic name of the thunder god in Mesopotamian mythology. He's the son of Annu and the brother of Enki."
This angry snake came from Babylon, from the Two Rivers. Dr. Roman immediately found the meaning of this name.
"His Excellency Adad said that the great king of gods gave him the power that he possessed as the aspect of the god Baal, and then gave him the name of Adad, allowing him to exercise some of the divine power to help us."
"Baal? Yes, Adad, as the bull god of abundance and thunder and rain, is often confused with the Canaanite Baal and the Hittite Taishub. Marduk should also be confused with him, so the king could do such a thing."
Dr. Roman briefly discussed the relationship between several gods. At least in the mythological connections between neighboring areas, such confusion is quite common.
"This means there will be one more member in the team heading to Egypt. Well, Your Excellency Akkad's current size is not conspicuous, so he should be able to disguise himself as an animal like a camel and pretend to be a caravan to enter Egypt?"
With an extra animal appearing, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately thought about how to incorporate him into the team without any sense of disobedience.
When going to Egypt to gather intelligence, you still need to do some disguise, at least at the beginning. Even if it is not of much use, it is enough as long as it can play some role.
"Is it possible to do this? That would be great."
The angry snake under Fujimaru Ritsuka responded directly, exhaling from its mouth, and its body was strangely distorted as if it was reflected in a kaleidoscope.
But in the blink of an eye, the distortion disappeared, the angry snake also disappeared from the spot, and only a camel was left standing at the door of the house.
"This is a very sophisticated illusion. It happened right before our eyes, but it was so amazing that we couldn't analyze the situation immediately.
This is definitely enough, and no one among us could do better than this.”
The camel that appeared at the original place raised its head slightly arrogantly when it heard Dr. Roman's praise, and blew out two streams of hot air from its nose.
"Let's get ready. We will set off tomorrow. What will Egypt look like in this era?"
……
The next day, shortly after the sun rose from the horizon, the heroic spirits who participated in this operation arrived at Fujimaru Ritsuka's door.
In addition to Ilya and Cursed Arm Hasa, Sanzang also enthusiastically pulled Tawarato Tai to sign up, but was rejected due to the number of two people. In the end, it was Arash who joined.
"If you encounter danger, please try to hide behind me. As long as I am still alive and standing on the ground, the people standing behind me will not be harmed."
Elijah patted his chest and assured the people around him that two days would be enough time for the warriors to get to know each other.
It would be better to say that people like him may be able to trust their backs after just meeting them once.
"Brother Elijah is a very good person, but I can't just hide behind someone. My hands always want to protect others inexplicably."
Arash still had a bright smile on his face, and it seemed like he was having a very pleasant chat with Curse Wrist and Ilya.
"I'm sorry, I accidentally went to bed late last night and woke up late."
Here, Fujimaru Ritsuka opened the door and walked out, speaking to several people with an apologetic look on his face.
"It's still early. It's better to say that these two guys were too impatient. As soon as the morning star rose, they ran to my room and dragged me over."
Arash walked up and patted Fujimaru Ritsuka's shoulder, pulling her over and complaining about the two people next to him.
"Hmm? This camel guy is...?"
Before Arash could do anything more, he saw a ferocious camel following behind Fujimaru Ritsuka, staring at him with an unfriendly look.
Chapter 62: The Journey
"So this is the dragon that carried you in Camelot. Did the king send it to accompany us?"
Arash learned the identity of the camel in front from Fujimaru Ritsuka and took two steps back.
"It seems that after last time's experience, you two are getting along pretty well. I won't take away someone else's good things."
Well, it was mainly because he felt the hostile gaze from the angry snake. After thinking about it for a while, he knew the reason, so he let go of his hand and did not pull Fujimaru Ritsuka to his side.
"Mr. Angry Snake's name is Adad, so you can just call him that. It's probably because Mr. Adad has never come into contact with anyone other than me, and there is still some unfamiliarity between them, so he subconsciously has some guard against me."
Fujimaru Ritsuka turned around and calmed the angry snake behind him, then led him out of the room, and Mashu followed behind.
"Thinking about it, it's true. I heard that this dragon is the sacred beast of the main god of the place called Babiron. It's impossible for them to get along so easily..."
Arash nodded and said as a matter of course, and Ilya beside him took over the conversation:
"What's more, the dragon in front of me has a more complex aura. I smell a strong scent of thunder and harvest from him, which is similar to the smell on me."
The aura of the Slavic god Perun that Ilya possesses should look similar to the aura of Adad, who is endowed with an angry snake.
The two attributes of thunderstorm and fertility are indeed often put together in the mythology of Eurasia.
"Let's just go now that everyone is here. There's nothing much to prepare at this point."
After a brief conversation, the few of them didn't waste any more time. They took some props for hiding and escaping prepared by Manshu for them, rode on the camels prepared by the mountain people, and set off from here to Egypt.
Dozens of camels were carrying large and small bags of goods, and five people were riding on camels, forming a camel caravan that looked quite presentable.
In this desolate land, sand and wasteland are like the ocean, and camels become ships. People ride camels across the sea of sand to travel to various places.
Hassan, a local, acted as a guide and led the camel caravan all the way to Egypt.
"It's really nerve-wracking. It's hard to imagine what Egypt would look like if it rose in this era."
When talking about Egypt, people's most common impression may be the magnificent pyramids, and the most common impression may be the desert under the pyramids.
Some people may take it for granted that, knowing that Egypt went through thirty-three dynasties, its destruction was not too long ago.
But in fact, ancient Egypt was unified 5000 years ago and became the Roman province of Egypt 2000 years ago.
Now, more than 1000 years have passed, and perhaps the only thing we can think of is to do as Osmandis did, which is to summon the Egypt of the past to this land again, rather than to rebuild the Egypt of the past here.
With a guide, the journey to Egypt is not too troublesome.
Now that the Lion King has defeated Camelot and disappeared, there will be no more Knights of the Round Table on the road, and the only risks on the road are the weather and the occasional appearance of magical beasts.
But these things were not obstacles at all for everyone in the team. Most of the time they couldn't even slow down their pace. The monsters would be killed directly while they were still hiding in the sand.
Several kilometers away from everyone, arrows made of magic power arrived in an instant and smashed the hidden monster directly.
"As expected of you, Archer. You caught it with your eyes before Mother Earth told me."
"Haha, since we agreed to treat this as a competition, I will definitely play along seriously."
The journey was bound to be boring, so the few of them took the appearance of magical beasts as fun and prepared to compete to see who could find more.
But basically, Arash and Ilya monopolized the game. Cursed Arm only spent some effort in the beginning, but later found that he had no chance of competing with the two, so he gave up and let the two of them compete.
"Hey! Egypt is just ahead. The game is over. Victory is such a joy. It's a pity that we can't enjoy some ice-cold beer here, otherwise we would definitely celebrate."
The final victory was won by Arash. The range that the Level A clairvoyance could reach was too far. Ilya, with his sense of the earth, was ultimately no match for Arash. He could only shake his head and admit his defeat.
"With such excellent archery skills and sharp eyes, I should have suggested that everyone blindfold themselves for the competition. Only in this way would I have a chance of winning."
⑼ "Hey, brother Ilya, you are too modest. At least in terms of archery skills, it's hard to tell who is better between us. It's just that as an Archer, I have the advantage in terms of eyesight."
㈣The journey to Egypt was spent during this period of time. After playing around, everyone returned to a serious state and arrived in front of the raging sandstorm.
"In front, I thought it was an illusion. The sandstorm here is much bigger than before. Even my eyes can't see clearly inside."
Ni Arash stared at the sandstorm ahead for a long time, but finally gave up.
"This is not a normal sandstorm. The land ahead has been completely separated from where we are, becoming an independent space. Even the king with the wisdom eye cannot see clearly what is inside, so we have to conduct this exploration."
Umbrella Ilia is quite familiar with the situation ahead. The sandstorm in the sky is no longer a simple protective ritual caused by magic, but a barrier solidified here.
Umbrella "Just get ready and go in. I'll lead the way."
Elijah didn't stop and walked straight in.
"Ilia's spiritual reaction disappeared directly. No, it should be said that the situation in the desert cannot be detected at all. It is really like two different worlds."
"Then let's go in too."
Knowing that Dr. Roman could not obtain any information, Ritsuka Fujimaru did not stop and rode his camel into the sandstorm ahead.
Curse Wrist consciously stayed at the end, driving the camels into the sandstorm ahead before stepping into it.
"We have arrived. It is just as I thought, a world where the sun has been engulfed. Have you accepted the name bestowed upon you by this land with peace of mind?"
Manshu, who was on the high tower, looked into the distance again. This time he finally caught a glimpse of some fragments and raised his hand at the same time.
"But it's still too blurry. We need to make the cut bigger to make the situation more confusing."
The stars in the daytime sky began to move again, and the stars turned into meteor showers and fell from the sky, hitting the sandstorm in the distance.
Chapter 63 Darkness
"Cough cough cough..."
As soon as he stepped into the desert, a large amount of sand and dust hit Fujimaru Ritsuka directly in the face.
Although Fujimaru Ritsuka had made preparations before coming in, he still underestimated the power of the sand that was dancing wildly under the control of magic.
The scenery inside this barrier was indeed completely different from the outside world. It should have been daytime when they came in, but here it was as if the sandstorm had really covered the sky and sun, swallowing up all the light, leaving only darkness.
The extremely dim light and the sand that hits your face and hurts or even leaves blood marks, it is indeed a bit unprepared to step into such an environment.⑧
"Master of Chaldea, it seems that I will have to consider helping you train well after returning from here. You still have a long way to go."
Ilya, who was walking in front, heard Fujimaru Ritsuka's slightly flustered voice, turned around and drew his sword.
As the magic sword that looked like the remains of a mountain appeared, the ice and snow on the sword also blew up, freezing the surrounding sand.
"I have also heard the story of Mr. Fujimaru Ritsuka. It is already very good that he has grown from an ordinary person living in a peaceful place to this level in such a short time. However, it is still a bit too much to be compared with a warrior with the blood of gods flowing in his body."
As a person who lived in the late Western Asia era, Arash understood the difference between ordinary people and warriors who were born with a dense mystery around them.
Arash has a strong remnant of the Age of Gods, which is why he has this incredibly strong body.
"But after entering the interior, the environment doesn't seem to have improved much. I still can't see very far."
As soon as Arash walked in, he started investigating, but it was still of no avail.
In this pitch-black environment, there are countless grains of sand flying around. Even with the best eyes, it is difficult to see too far.
"It is indeed a very annoying environment. This place has completely fallen into a vicious realm. I can smell a lot of disgusting odors belonging to animals even here on the edge."
Elijah nodded and Curse Wrist walked in at this time.
Curse Wrist reached out and grabbed a torch from the camel he was riding, then lit it with magic power.
"It's completely dark inside. Let's light the torches first. Being in the dark, our perception is also weakened in this hostile environment. If we encounter a fierce attack, we may be dispersed directly in the dark."
Although lighting a torch would inevitably bring threats, the light would still be conspicuous enough in the dark, but it was obvious that with several servants at the side, at least the defensive capabilities would not be lacking.
"But I can't continue to point the way here. This desert is very different from what I remember. Although there were sandstorms in the desert that was once ruled by the Sun King, it was not like this."
In this extremely harsh environment, finding the direction to move forward became a new difficulty. There were no signs around and nothing to indicate the location.
All I could see was sand, sand and sand. I couldn't see the sun in the sky, or even the sky. All I could see through the cracks in the sand was darkness.
"Leave it to me. I can already smell the stench of pollution from here. This time I must show my skills and make enough achievements to make the king put my seat next to his."
Elijah naturally took on the task of guide. He came here just for this matter and had the ability to track.
"boom!"
At this moment, there was a sudden loud roar in the sky, and violent magical fluctuations came from above. The sand that was moving irregularly seemed to have been hit hard. A large amount of sand fell from the sky and stopped dancing.
"The king launched an attack to cover our actions. Since you, Lord Ilia, can find the direction, there is no need to waste time here any longer."
"Okay, the direction from which I can sense the strongest stench of contamination is this, so I'll walk in front and follow my flame."
Elijah did not raise the torch, but instead called for the snowstorm he stirred up. In an instant, the snowflakes melted and turned into bright lightning, illuminating the front of the team.
Search: 2∥jiu∧°4£☆零◇私≈〕参×⑸☆溜4 "Haha. You're really impatient. What an annoying guy."
In the center of this lightless realm, in contrast to the pure darkness that covers this land, a city made entirely of gold stands here.
The life-nourishing river runs through the city, and countless people live in magnificent buildings. The harvest of food and fruits are scattered throughout the streets, and at the same time, the smell of fragrant wine permeates the place.
However, in the center of this city, the magnificent large complex temple had lost its luster and did not emit any light. Instead, the walls outside the temple were painted with a color like solidified blood.
Then, in the palace where the princess lived in the great temple, the nameless princess sat on the luxurious bed and chuckled.
"Well, my lovely fellow, the golden king who is as blazing as the sun, please release your light for me."
The great temple that had lost its color began to operate at this moment, and the flowing magic power rushed towards the group of temples. The attacks of each temple were activated, forming one light circle after another, which were like stars twinkling in the dark night on the ground.
Among these activated temples, there are two main guns, named after Set and Anat respectively.
The temple's many artillery fire roared at the same time, and the stars that fell to the ground returned to the sky.
Just above this barrier, two pieces of starry sky collided with each other, annihilating each other.
"Is this the end? It's of such a low quality that you're actually bothering me with something like this?"
The beast lying on the bed saw that Manshu did not continue to attack and showed a look of disdain.
