Crown Master

Atum and Gudazi separated and were discovered by Mana who was looking for him everywhere. There will be an important sacrificial ceremony tonight, and Atum, the crown prince, must be present instead of the pharaoh!

Mana heard the scene described by her master. Most of the priests would appear on the stage if they were not on important matters. This is an extremely sacred occasion in her heart, so she also believes that His Royal Highness must be the same as herself. Looking forward to participating in it in person.

Wrong, Mana stuck out her tongue in her heart.

I am not qualified to attend such an honorable occasion, but I can do it according to my master!

Mana's master is one of the six priests, the captain of the Royal City Guard, responsible for the security and safety of ancient Egypt.At that time, this was a position that only those with incomparable glory could obtain. The first luck of Mana was to meet her master, and the second luck was to be able to serve His Royal Highness.

In the heart of this girl who studied divine arts, everything in the world is full of bright spots, especially the master and His Royal Highness are shining with the light of Pikapika!

Atum looked at the cheerful smiling face of the girl who didn't know how to feel depressed, and suddenly thought of the girl he had just met by chance.

In terms of blood, she is probably more similar to herself than anyone else, but...

"Mana, have you seen Princess Leia in the temple?"

The girl who jumped forward in small steps was taken aback. The traditional Egyptian wheat skin color made her look extraordinarily energetic, just like some athletes in later generations, but the skin color that needs to be maintained was a color that can be seen everywhere in ancient Egypt The same is true for Mana, who is protected by the priests. The stern God Allah never hesitates to sway the grace of the sun for the hardworking people, and also leaves traces of his own gifts.

Littlefinger scratched her wrist. Because Mana was a disciple of the priest, she acted as the prince's ear tongue in disguise in the temple. Hearing Atum's question, the girl hesitated for a while before telling Princess Leia's treatment in the temple. .

"Princess Laiya has a noble status. I have never seen her." Mana said honestly, "I just heard that she has been in poor health recently, but I don't know if she has recovered."

"Not in good health?" Atum thought of the athletic young girl. She didn't look like a person recovering from a serious illness. However, thinking of the power entanglement in the palace, the seemingly glorious temple was also hidden behind the scenes. Maybe there is some dark plot.

As a prince, Atum is much more mature than he appears.

When Mana was thinking in Atum, she would lower her voice obediently, observe his face carefully, and when she noticed that he had recovered, she would talk to him very energetically about how much the next festival would be like. Lively, how important!

The ceremonies in ancient Egypt never looked like what people in the later generations thought. When the magic power of Dayuan could not be weakened, people could really manipulate Fengshui and weather through rituals.

In Atum's understanding, the ceremony this time should be to establish a contract with the elves who are active in the air and in other worlds. This is not unusual in Egypt, and even Atum himself is loved by the elves, otherwise It will not make the temple so fearful.

Fortunately, even though the temple is afraid of the power of Atum, the priests in charge of the millennium artifact have always held a wise stand and have never been swayed by the darkness of people's hearts. This is also the case, and the temple has always been an inseparable part of the Egyptian regime.

Gudazi has just arrived and doesn't understand anything, but Atum is very clear about her situation.

To put it bluntly, the temple belongs to the family members of the royal family who have no inheritance rights. A princess is worthless in the temple, let alone a princess who is not favored.

She was running around like that, it's good that she wasn't caught, but if she was caught, it's not surprising that she was killed directly by the guards as a suspicious person. Human life was the most worthless in the ancient kingdom of slavery.

It can be said that Atum showed up to lead her way at that time, which was actually quite a kindness.

Then Mana stayed outside because she was not qualified to enter the ceremony. Atum said hello to her and stepped into the brightly lit sacrificial venue, suddenly becoming the focus of attention!

It would have been futile for someone else to be suddenly looked at by so many people with all kinds of eyes, but Atum is His Royal Highness after all, and he has seen many big scenes with the Pharaoh, and he is still calm at this moment Reliably announces the start of the ritual.

The flames of the bonfire heat up the air, and the magic power floating around uncontrollably is attracted by the power of the ceremony and begins to gather into groups. It is correct to use a medium with strong power to make the choice to cause strange phenomena. In the bonfire, the looming elves appear A part of the body, just like that, looks incomparably huge!

The nobles guarding all around began to whisper: "It seems to be another elf at the level of a god. I wonder who is qualified to be its master?"

"This is already the No.2 god-level elf this year, right? It should be taken away by one of the six priests. Even if it is a priest, spirits of the god-level are still rare."

"Only the light of the fire illuminates such a beautiful body, if the bright sun's light can see the whole picture?"

"Great, our country's strength will increase again!"

……

The voices of joy are endless. Anyway, the elves connected to this ceremony represent top-notch excellent combat power. Next, you only need to choose someone who is enough to subdue it, and then engrave the whole picture of the elves on the stone slab. Normal use.

Atum is no stranger to this. His eyes swept over the group of elves with the level of subduing gods, and his eyes jumped on several priests present. Finally, he made up his mind and just wanted to open his mouth to call that person's name.

"West……"

"Hahahaha—my uncle is the thief king Bakula, you guys, remember it well!"

The ceremony progressed to a critical moment, the sudden sound of horseshoes galloping from a distance, the magic power of the night covered the vision, and the outline of the enemy could not be seen clearly, but the arrogant voice accompanied by flying blood flowers instantly disrupted the solemn and sacred scene. Sacrifice ceremony!

In order to facilitate communication with the elves, the festival was deliberately chosen to be held in a palace near the outside of the city, but at this time it became a feast for the horse thieves to laugh wildly.

The nobles climbed up from their seats in embarrassment, but before they could run to a safe place, their noble lives were trampled on by the gang of hyenas on horses.

In the chaos, the young man who was the most dressed and had the most arrogant voice swept across the group of high-ranking "lords" sullenly, and licked his dry mouth bloodthirstyly when he saw Atum.

"Look what I saw? When I saw the fire, I guessed that there would be a big prey, but I didn't expect... Your Royal Highness!"

The young man with a strange voice raised his knife to the cold-faced Atum, with a sinister expression like a jackal picking up bones in the dusk.

"The target has changed, those nobles are not as good as this guy, take him back to me!"

"Not good!" Among the priests, the first one to react was King City Guard Captain Mahad, who is also Mana's teacher. At this moment, he stood in front of Atum without hesitation, his handsome features were extraordinarily cold , "His Royal Highness, their target is you, please withdraw to the inner palace as soon as possible!"

Atum frowned and did not listen to his advice. His eyes flashed over the group of nobles who had been slaughtered by horse thieves below, and he gave an order coldly: "Drive the thieves out and call other guards in the palace!"

Mahad: "Yes! But Your Highness..."

"Do as I say." Atum's calm tone easily calmed down the nobles who had fled nearby. Seeing this, Mahad could only hold back his advice and gave another priest, Karim, a look. .

Karim nodded, and walked down the high platform representing class status with him.

Seeing that the gang of gentlemen finally finished discussing their affairs, Bakula, the thief king who allowed his subordinates to kill at will, narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and summoned his heroic spirit.

This technique seemed so familiar that Gu Dazi, who had been observing secretly for a long time, almost burst into foul language.

The dragon-shaped monster that appeared in the arena knew that it was an enemy summoned by the power of the elves, but the first reaction when seeing that gesture was definitely the summoning of a heroic spirit.

Gudazi looked at the bright red command spell on the back of her hand, for a minute she wanted to say goodbye...

Immediately afterwards, a more miraculous scene appeared. On the high platform, several people dressed more gorgeously than others also summoned strange things to fight against the enemy. Through the days of living in the temple, Gudazi knew that it was only a priest. However, when Kalim raised the millennium scale in his hand, and the tauren and centaur in the arena merged into a head-turning centaur, his eyes were still blank.

I always feel that there are many flaws, but I just can't tell them!

Gu Dazi, who is very special and extremely depressed, feels that he can't go on. Although these are strangers, watching the massacre happen, normal people can't live with their conscience.

"Let's go and have a look."

Gu Dazi, who said this to himself in his heart, quietly sneaked out of the hiding place, carefully dodging into the blind spot of vision through the shadow between the pillars and trying to be as unobtrusive as possible.

Some places where the horse thieves have not yet been killed, but the guests and waiters have been frightened and dare not run away will basically lose their heads and be pulled to a safe place by the sneaky Gudazi behind to hide them.

After she finished swaying around, she saved many people.

There is a sneaky person in the chaos, and it is difficult to detect if you don’t pay special attention, but Atum is the prince. As the name suggests, he is at the highest place in the entire ceremony, and almost nothing that happens in the hall will escape him.

So amidst the miserable corpses, there was a small figure sneaking around to save people, occasionally lying down and pretending to be dead to escape the mopping up of horse thieves. His actions were too out of place, which made him stare silently for a while before looking away. .

Daimao was not very energetic because he was lying on the ground stained with blood, and Gu Dazi focused on saving people, so he didn't realize that his actions had actually been exposed.After painstakingly removing the group of people, she pulled a clean cloth to wipe off the blood stuck to her body. After wiping it off, she looked down at the cloth and thought about its original purpose, but before she figured it out, The sudden change in the battle situation when the bull-headed centaur disappeared could not make her continue to deceive herself.

Nonsense, no matter who is going to have an accident!

Bakula: "Is this what you are capable of?" The Thief King came and went like the wind with extremely rampant laughter. The loss caused to the Egyptian royal court this time was enough for him to think about it for a while.

The keen villains have realized that the death of the bull-headed centaur is just the beginning, and the security forces who were unable to react in time have already set up a stance outside at this time.

Calmly thinking about this, the leader gave up on the prince who was right above him, waved his hand and shouted: "Retreat!"

These hyenas traveling to and from the Egyptian desert immediately tore apart the guards of the royal city like a gust of wind, and the night quickly hid their figures.

Kalim clicked unwillingly: "These guys run fast!"

"Thieves have always been a hidden danger to our country." Simon, the eldest among the priests, said calmly.

Kalim: "Is there no way to sanction them?"

Simon shook his head and looked at His Royal Highness, who was in the highest position and was able to stabilize the overall situation at a young age.

Karim looked at him, then at the prince, with a dazed look on his face.

Atum was calm throughout the whole process, and calmly issued several finishing orders.

Ordinary thieves don't have the guts to interrupt the royal ceremony, thinking of the other party claiming to be the thief king Bakula... Mahad seemed to think of something, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Atum didn't miss the change of expression on his face. After a moment of pondering, he ordered the soldiers who had finished cleaning the venue to lift up the stone slab.

"Simon, continue the ceremony."

No one objected to this decision, including those nobles who had just been frightened.

Simon is a short old man, his big eyes are hard to make people vigilant, and he is indeed a kind and smiling old man. As the guardian priest of the No.17 pharaoh, he is also a thousand-year-old priest among the priests. Guardian of the keys.

Atum's choice of him undoubtedly proves that he has the strength to conquer powerful elves.

However, when the ceremony continued, only a part of the elf's body was carved on the stone slab, which made many people feel puzzled, but the priests were not surprised.

Atum didn't blame Simon, but said: "Good job."

Simon said respectfully: "The Archmage Exodia is too powerful. I chose to divide it into five parts to control its power from being abused. I am very grateful for His Highness's understanding."

Atum nodded and waved him back.

The bloody palace was really not suitable for staying any longer. The flames of the ceremony were extinguished after special prayers were held, and the floor would be washed after everyone evacuated.

At first glance, the death of people did not cause any haze, and the follow-up disposal of the thieves will be taken over by special personnel. The upper echelons of the country are all happy that the new elf Exodia Archmage has been acquired, and no one will continue to pay attention to this ceremony What happened along the way.

Except for one person.

Gu Dazi, whose hair was wet by the dew, disappeared from the venue after the thieves escaped. Taking advantage of the moonlight to avoid the strong white wild flowers on the ground, he finally stood in the corner of the backyard of the palace. She was in a daze, but her trembling eyelashes proved that she was not unconscious.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the sun revealed a ray of light from the remote end of the earth, piercing the silence of the night.

Gu Dazi just stood here all night, looking at his palm intently, and then - slowly - slowly - clenched.

This was the first time she was going to do something, but nothing was done.

Did you... save someone?
