Chapter 88 Horus: Go on, I'm listening.

Chapter 88 Horus: Go on, I'm listening.

A bold speculation. Just how bold? Let us hear it. The crowd's gazes conveyed this sentiment.

Thus, Luo Li began her earth-shattering remarks.

"First, we need to start with why Set and Horus fought for the throne. Initially, Set was dissatisfied with the rule of his brother Osiris, so he murdered Osiris in an attempt to usurp the throne."

The goddess Isis found her husband's body and resurrected him. But Set learned of this, and he killed Osiris again, dismembering his body and scattering the remains throughout Egypt.

This time, the goddess Isis sought help from her sister Nephthys to retrieve Osiris's remains. They wrapped them in linen to create the first mummy, and then used magic to briefly revive it.

Then Isis mated with him and gave birth to Horus, thus beginning the myth of Horus vying for the throne with Set.

At this point, Luo Li paused, looked at the audience who were listening intently, and posed a question.

"So, do you know who Nephthys, the sister of the goddess Isis, is married to? Xiao Honglu and Chu Xuan are forbidden to answer!"

Xiao Honglu, who was about to answer, was choked by Luo Li's sudden remark and started coughing uncontrollably.

Aside from Chu Xuan and Xiao Honglu, among the remaining members of the Zhongzhou team, only Zhan Lan, whose real-life profession is a writer, has some knowledge of Egyptian mythology.

"I remember now, Nephthys is Set's wife, isn't she!"

"You got it right!"

Luo Li clapped her hands, encouraging Zhan Lan as if praising a child, and then asked the next question in a teacher's tone.

"So, the next question is, with whom did Nephthys have Anubis?"

"I know, I know!" Zheng Zha raised his hand and shouted, "It's Seth!"

As a result, instead of Luo Li's praise, he was met with everyone's stares... This guy's IQ is hopeless...

Zheng Zha didn't know why everyone viewed him that way, but that didn't stop him from confidently explaining to everyone.

"What kind of looks are those? What did I say wrong? Nephthys is Set's wife, and Anubis is Nephthys's son, so his father is Set!"

"Fine, one of you can explain it to him."

Not wanting to waste her breath arguing with the gorilla, Luo Li passed the trouble on to others.

Zhan Lan looked around. Since Luo Li hadn't named anyone, Chu Xuan, given his personality, naturally wouldn't take the initiative to explain to Zheng Zha.

As for the others… Zhan Lan sighed and took the initiative to explain to Zheng Zha: “In Egyptian mythology, Nephthys transformed into her sister Isis and approached Osiris, and then gave birth to Anubis.”

"Huh???" Zheng Zha's eyes widened when he learned the truth, looking like his brain was overloaded and he couldn't understand it.

Luo Li didn't care whether he could understand or not, and continued talking after Zhan Lan.

"Nephthys, fearing that Set would find out about this, abandoned the newborn Anubis."

But coincidentally, Isis found the abandoned Anubis and raised him.

Later, Anubis played a significant role in Isis's resurrection of Osiris, and was thus known as the god of mummies.

Moreover, Anubis was a staunch supporter of Horus when Set and Horus, son of Olisis, vied for the throne.

...Holy crap...Is this something we can hear...?

Everyone looked at Zhan Lan, who had just been blessed by Horus, and their faces showed expressions of horror, as if to say, "Captain Luo Li, please stop talking!"

Luo Li noticed the change in everyone's expressions, thinking to herself, "This is only the beginning... and isn't this what you wanted to hear... I haven't even shared my bold speculation yet... you all have to hear the rest."

"In Egyptian mythology, it is clearly recorded that Set did not know Anubis's origins, nor did he know that his wife had cheated on him and cuckolded him."

But in my opinion, that's impossible. If the believers all know this, how could Seth not know it? And as the god who wields power, storms, and war, Seth must be a volatile old man.

Do you think this hot-tempered guy can tolerate finding out he's been cheated on?

Of course, I can't tolerate it! I have to confront the guy who dared to cheat on me!
Then Osiris was caught in the crossfire, dying twice and ending up in the underworld.

This actually aligns with what Luo Li mentioned at the beginning: the myth of Set plotting to kill Osiris in an attempt to usurp the throne.

But Luo Li said that these were just preludes to make everyone accept her shocking remarks that were about to come.

"As I just mentioned, the next development is the myth of Set and Horus vying for the throne."

But note that Anubis reappears in this legend, and he is in support of Horus.

"Think about it, what do you think Seth would think in this situation?"

...what do you think...?

Faced with Luo Li's question, everyone put themselves in Seth's shoes and thought about it for a moment, and then...

...His wife was having an affair with his older brother...cheating him...and they even had an illegitimate child...After he killed his older brother, the illegitimate child jumped out to support his brother's son and fight him for the inheritance...Holy crap...

After putting themselves in Seth's shoes for a moment, everyone wore expressions of utter dismay, as if they had swallowed a fly, and began to sympathize with him.

"Wait, are you speaking up for Seth? Our mission is to prevent his arrival."

Xiao Honglu felt increasingly uneasy; why was his own captain speaking up for the enemy?

Luo Li replied, "Don't rush, let me finish what I have to say."

As we all know, this led to the struggle between Set and Horus for the throne.

According to the judgment of the gods, Horus was chosen to inherit the throne of the human world.

In this way, no matter how strong or dissatisfied Set is, he cannot possibly be an enemy of the gods.

Since he couldn't cause trouble for Horus, who had the support of the gods, he naturally had to find a suitable target to vent his dissatisfaction.

In this way, Osiris and Anubis, who are in the underworld, become the best targets.

Therefore, it's quite reasonable for Set to storm the underworld and defeat Hades, the god of the underworld, and Anubis, the god of death.

And wouldn't it be more reasonable for Set, who did all this, to be imprisoned in the Underworld by the gods through a trap?

After hearing Luo Li's bold speculation, everyone was stunned and involuntarily came up with the same thought.

...Oh no...she actually covered it up...

Luo Li herself was quite satisfied with everyone's expressions, thinking to herself... "As expected of me, I can even make this up..."

Until... a familiar voice, yet carrying an unprecedented air of authority, rang out.

"The story was well told, but I hope you won't tell it again."

...Ah... Sensing something was wrong, Luo Li turned her stiff neck and met a pair of golden eyes as bright as the sun.

...Oh no...we're doomed...
