The Holy Grail War of God's Blessing

However, it was meaningless to rebuke the angry snake. After all, the beast in front of him was fake and unreal, so the specifications of a god were just imaginary creations.

In this land, the story of Babylon has long been buried in the dust. Even the angry serpent is only left in the story of the Apocrypha, where it is a dragon that Daniel easily kills and is used as a prop to make Nebuchadnezzar in the story submit to God.

"Failure? Haha... I don't know what defeat is. All my fate has already been arranged. The victory of this game belonged to me before the curtain fell. All you did was struggle to your heart's content."④

The beast did not agree with Manshu's words, and after laughing, it had no intention of fighting, but chose to turn around and leave.

"Get ready to please me in the upcoming official performance."

Chapter 82 Replacement 0

"Haha! The first scene ended so hastily. How much of the subsequent development is worth looking forward to?" 5

Manshu looked at the beast that turned around and left without hesitation, leaving with the surging waves. There was only a fleeting smile on his face, and he had no hope for what would happen next.

"But compared to what just happened, you still can't escape the blame. Go back to the painting, this is all you can get now."

The things that were right in front of him had disappeared, so Mansu turned around and scolded the angry snake with its head lowered below.

However, many words are useless, so there is no need to say more, Manshu said as he stretched out his hand.

The hand that was stretched out by the hazy and phantom-like body directly grabbed the angry snake on the ground, which was half a meter in size after being shrunk.

"Nitocris, it was my negligence to put aside all unnecessary matters, and there was no need to make any sacrifices. But as the ruler of this place, as the Pharaoh, as the king, how could I not make sacrifices?"

The only thing that Manshu regretted here was the disappearance of Nitocris. Although the departure of a servant was not a story that required much sadness, human emotions were not always what they seemed.

When I step on this ground, I will always associate it with the environment, and it will inevitably bring up new memories in my mind, causing me to regret the decisions I made before or something else.

But it was just a momentary feeling. There was nothing extra to do. All there was was dust. Apart from that, no matter how you looked, you couldn't see anything extra.

Manshu's figure began to blur, and gradually changed from a human shape to a ball of smoke, which wrapped up the angry snake that was caught and drifted away.

"It's over for now. It's been pretty normal, nothing worth looking up at. But normality is a good thing in common sense. Accidents can bring fun, but they also bring uncertainty. Now is not the time to pursue fun."

The drifting smoke quickly traveled a long distance, fell from the high tower where the sun was hanging, passed through the dome at the top and fell on Manshu who was sitting on the seat in the center of the room.

Everything that happened along the way was recorded, and when the smoke settled, it also fell into Manshu's mind, allowing him to synchronize the memory of his clone.

Manshu raised his right hand and spread it out on the armrest of the throne. A tiny angry snake was lying in the palm of his hand.

Manshu pushed his hand forward, and the angry snake flew out of his hand and flew towards the mural in front where he had jumped off before.

"Go back. You are still immature. The hymns of the gods have not changed your essence. Rather than saying that you are a false god, you are just pretending to be a phantom of a god. Continue to indulge in it and wake up at the last moment."

The angry snake returned to the wall of room 5 and became part of the mural again.

The gods depicted in the murals also became active again, shaking their wine glasses and enjoying delicacies. In the endless joy, they did not hesitate to make their voices heard to praise the host who brought this banquet.

"Well, what else is there to do? Osmandis has done everything he should do. Even though he fell into the hands of beasts several times and suffered the humiliation, he has done what he should do."

All that was left in the desert was the golden city and the temple, but these were enough.

Even though it had changed its appearance, its owners, and had even been altered from beginning to end, it was still Egypt.

Ritsuka Fujimaru is about to bring the proof of royal power, and in Egypt, the royal power has also undergone some changes.

Although the previously held Said Festival has become a festival held by older rulers to renew their royal power, before that, this ancient festival was a ritual established to kill the pharaohs who could no longer maintain effective rule.

Whether in ancient Egypt or ancient Sumer, in the era when theocracy and royal power were not separated, stories of priest-king rulers being killed and replaced were common. This was the ancient custom of regicide or thedecide.

This gave the Said Festival the effect of strengthening the royal power. At the same time, the Pharaoh, who had ruled for thirty-two years, also gradually lost his power of control over time. Holding festivals to restore his royal power was like killing himself while his subjects were already aging.

However, a pharaoh who lives too long may not be a good thing for Egypt. The fifth pharaoh of the Sixth Dynasty, Pepi II, ascended the throne at the age of six and reigned for ninety-four years. Four generations lived under his rule.

Such a long rule made the people firmly believe in the divinity of the pharaoh, and even believed that the pharaoh would not die and would rule the land forever.

The death of Pepi II undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to this situation. After his son inherited the throne of Pharaoh, he died after only one year in power, which dealt a heavy blow to the people's confidence and caused the Pharaoh's ruling authority to fall into chaos.

The long reign of Ramses II undoubtedly brought about such a situation. In the Egyptian worldview that the pharaoh was a god, the long-lived king would naturally deepen the people's understanding of the pharaoh's divinity, leading to more serious consequences for the pharaoh's death.

Although he is the king of the divine nature, he is not a true god after all, and his body will still decay and die.

Therefore, the most essential function of the Sayid Festival is to renew the royal power and announce the Pharaoh's rule over Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt.

The royal power has been renewed, and although it is not known whether Osmandis held the festival because he had seen the haze appearing in the future or just held it out of friendship, this move has brought a source of motivation that can be easily accomplished in the current situation.

Now all that was left to do was to wait. Manshu continued to sit here in silence until everything returned to the constructed structure.

"At this distance, we can no longer detect the magic reaction from behind. This is a rolling sand that has now calmed down. It seems that Mr. Adad succeeded, or the method left by the king worked."

The detectable range of this desert is not wide. After walking a certain distance, the instrument can no longer detect and can only make guesses based on the environment.

However, despite guessing that the pursuers behind them had been completely stopped, everyone still did not dare to relax and walked quickly to the end of the desert.

"This is it."

The end of the desert is an eroded and broken place, and the place called the cliff is the land that keeps collapsing upwards.

The sky at the end was no longer shrouded in darkness, but a red color, with sand constantly being sucked upwards.

Chapter 83: Ordinary Day

The previously barren mountainous areas are still blessed with abundance, so that the people living here do not continue to suffer.

Although there were not many people living in mountainous areas before, this is actually a lot more than before.

Under the constant Holy Judgment of the Lion King upon this land, the people who had previously lived in this land could only choose to head to the Holy City or the mountainous areas. If they continued to stay in the village, they would only face the Holy Judgment that would fall from the sky at any time and raze the entire village to the ground.

After the threat of the Lion King is removed and the holy city of Jerusalem returns to normal, the mountain people who came here to seek refuge because of dangerous situations can also consider returning to their original places of life.

The environment in the mountainous areas is no longer as barren as before. The villages of those people who came here for refuge have long been destroyed. This has prevented them from leaving and instead they have chosen to stay here.

The land here is now like the Nile River after the flood receded. According to Herodotus' description, the land of Egypt only needs to sow seeds on the soil receded by the flood, and then drive the animals to step on the sown land and wait for the harvest.

Although this is only a temporary thing, it can make the people living in front of it show joy and excitedly imagine the future.

When things here come to an end, everything will be corrected into normal history, and no one will witness the disappointing reality after the excitement.

But at this moment, people are still living on this land, spending every day busy.

On the distant horizon, a tall figure first showed his head, then his entire body.

"Is it Master Curse-Wrist and the others who have returned?"

People come and go every day, leaving here to make pilgrimage to Jerusalem, but a giant figure like Elijah is still easy to recognize.

The mountain people quickly confirmed the information and reported it upwards, and Hassan the Hundred Faces quickly came over.

All matters here are still handled by Baimao. After all, she is the only one with professional knowledge and skills here. As Hassan, she can also give orders without any problems.

"You've worked hard on the journey. That desert must be even more dangerous than before. It's fortunate that there were no casualties."

The Hassans had once gone deep into the desert, and Hassan the Hundred Faces even had a plan to go deep into the desert and kidnap Nitocris.

Once Nitocris, who controls the sandstorms in the desert and commands the Sphinx, is captured, one can move freely in the desert without fear of danger. He can also use her to trade with the Sun King to gain the possibility and opportunity to survive in the cracks.

"It is indeed fortunate that there were no casualties in the team, but the friend I met on the road had to sacrifice himself. Alas, I boasted this time. I don't have the face to see the king. I can only wait until the next time I can make meritorious deeds."

Elijah felt only annoyance about this journey. There was nothing he could do, and no chance for him to show his talents.

"Well, Elijah has been constantly enduring blows along the way, always standing at the forefront to resist the malice of the outside world. He will be the most tired among us, so I will go to rest with him.

Baimao, you have brought two men from Chaldea, and they are carrying what Pharaoh in the desert has entrusted to us to present to the king.

Contrary to his usual behavior, Cursed Arm chose not to report, but waited for Ilya and Arash to leave, and only let Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu go with Baimao.

Bai Mao had no objection. Although he was surprised, he also knew that Curse Arm would not do anything without a purpose, so he took Fujimaru Ritsuka and the other two and headed towards the center as if they were familiar with the route.

"You are not unfamiliar with this place. You can walk the rest of the way by yourselves. The work on the back is not finished yet, so I will continue to supervise it."

However, Bai Mao only led the way to the gate of the last floor, then took another path, bypassed the tower and went to the back, leaving the two to continue forward alone.

"We're already here, so everything is in place. The remaining preparations will only take a day or two."

When the returning people set foot on the sky fortress, the sun hanging high on the top of the tower naturally captured what happened on this land and passed the information back.

"However, how prepared is Yuanfang? The current accumulation should not be enough to support the beast's metamorphosis and allow her to transform from a juvenile to a complete beast."

The desert in the distance was no longer just dark, but had several holes in it, so a hazy shape could be seen, but that was all.

However, the remaining extra things are nothing that can be covered up. In a few days, everything should become clear, so there is no need to rush.

Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mashu had already reached this point, climbing the long staircase to the throne room.

"It's just right that only the two of you came. Just put the authority in your hands down on the ground. I already know what you have experienced during this period. You have done a good job. The final song has already been played. Now all that's left is to open the curtain and present the final scene."

Manshu spoke naturally and patted Sekhmet who was lying on him.

The black cat raised its head and yawned, then stood up lazily and jumped off Manshu's legs.

The two people below put down the boxes in their hands, then stepped back a few steps, watching Sekhmet walking towards them, stretching out their slender cat claws and directly lifting the box, which was several times the size of Sekhmet in cat form.

"Just like the last time you came, you have completed the assigned task very well. I will talk to you about the few who didn't come later. You two should just express your desires here."

Manshu asked Fujimaru Ritsuka, stretched out his hand to take the box handed to him by Sekhmet, and put the thing on the armrest on his right hand side without rushing to open it.

Sekhmet returned to Manshu's lap and lay down again, while Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke without thinking:

"Before I ask for the reward, could you please allow me to ask you about Arad's situation? If you can't ask freely, you can just consider this as a reward."

"It's not a big deal. The useless guy is right behind you. He's fine. He's just a little too useless and is being reprimanded."

Manshu raised his finger and pointed at the mural on the wall behind him. The angry snake on the mural immediately moved. Although it did not jump off the mural directly, it kept blinking and shaking its head.

Chapter 84: The Journey

The sounds echoed one after another on this land, and people worked hard here to make things that had long disappeared and should not exist reappear on this land.

Perhaps we should look back to a more distant place, whether it is in Babylon or the Hanging Gardens of Nineveh, or the Ishtar Gate and the Temple of Marduk in Babylon.

It was a building in the fertile land between the Euphrates and the Tigris, two of the four rivers that flowed from the Garden of Eden, which the Greeks called Mesopotamia, which means between the two rivers.

Jerusalem is not far away from there, probably about the same distance from Egypt. When the royal power had fallen into the hands of Eridu and Upper and Lower Egypt had not yet been unified, the two lands had already had exchanges, so the distance was not too far.

After all, the area between the two lands is barren and desolate. If one wants to survive, they can only go towards the two nearest rivers.

qThe mountain people who come and go today build what once appeared on that ancient land, with the addition of some fantasies added by later generations that have never appeared.

ｕThe city of Babylon was not a product of reality, but a mysterious legacy of gods, which could only have created it.

nSurrounding the Ishtar Gate, buildings are constantly being updated at a daily rate. Whether they have seen it or not, fantasy has already outlined the basic form for them, and they only need to add bricks and tiles on it.

: The Ishtar Gate that collapsed before has long been restored, and more buildings continue to be built near the Ishtar Gate. Even if it is just to store magic power and divine energy, it is necessary to continue building.

After all, magic power is indeed an extremely necessary thing, not to mention that such a large fortress needs even more magic power supply. It is impossible for Manshu to find a good source of magic power at this time, and it is impossible for him to directly capture Gilgamesh and use him as a battery like Emperor Karl did.

0Time passed extremely quickly, and the scenery here also updated very quickly, until the day when everything was completed.

The company has been quite peaceful these days. There have been no major changes, and no major changes can be seen.

㈧The deserts were as peaceful as ever, and the whole world seemed to have returned to normal order.

The people of Sishan also completely returned to their normal lives and have continued to exist quite normally until today.

The ground began to vibrate slightly, and then the mountain people, whether they were working or staying in the house, all ran out, looking for the source of the vibration.

㈨Then they saw the aerial fortress they had been traveling to, which was taking off for the second time since the last conquest of the Lion King.

Normally, the entire fortress is not suspended in the sky, but is embedded in the earth.

Although at the beginning Manshu chose to keep the entire fortress at a certain distance from the ground, floating about one or two meters in the air.

But if it is floating one or two meters in the air, then the distance between the ground and the entire sky garden is at least four or five meters, so it is not an easy task to get up there.

The people who built the buildings had to go back and forth from their own houses every day, and not many people could stay in the sky gardens. There were not many buildings for living, but more for storing magic power and using as attack turrets.

So later Manshu stopped the aerial fortress on the ground, and even embedded a part of it downwards, so that people could get up without spending too much effort, and there was no need to send people to lay down stairs for people to get up.

The covering soil was shaken off, and the lush green plants that grew from the fertility of the land were torn off and fell to the ground from the edges of the entire building.

“Peaceful days always pass by too quickly, and only after they pass by do people feel incomparable nostalgia.”

Standing on the aerial fortress, Hassan couldn't help but sigh that these days were indeed the rare peace he could experience living here.

This land rarely has peace. Ever since the 18th Dynasty of ancient Egypt conquered this land, its owners have been constantly changing.

"Indeed, no matter how long the happy days are, they always seem short in our perception, while the painful days are often the opposite. However, we have stayed here for too long, and it is time to put a full stop to everything."

Someone came from behind and said in agreement.

"Why are you here at this time...does the king need me?" ㈥≤■⑶→∴④∠℃㈣「-⑵●

Cursed Wrist Hassan turned around and asked with some confusion.

"Yes, Curse Wrist, do you know what the enemy in that desert is?"

The person who arrived was the one who should have organized the order at this moment. Although this should have been done by Curse Wrist, it was obvious that he had other things to do.
