Creation: I Am Azathoth
Chapter 78 The Holy City Of Thebes
Two days flew by.
The figure of Ramses II stood on the solar ship at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
Kai Luo Cheng below has already set up the altar.
After two days of publicity and preparation, a god festival with millions of live viewers and billions of online viewers slowly kicked off.
Carefully selected priests wear linen robes and are anointed with numerous pungent spices.
Her mid-length hair has been shaved into a bald head, and rough shoes made of papyrus scratch the soles of her feet like feathers.
But nothing but piety could be seen on the face of the high priest.
The high priest walked up to the altar step by step on the rocky steps, while dancing a weird sacrificial dance, while chanting prayers.
Then a group of shirtless short-haired strong men carried 20 cow carcasses that had been processed, as well as various vegetables and fruits to the spacious and bright altar, and offered sacrifices respectfully
After several minutes of sacrificial dance, the sweaty high priest was panting, and the rest of the priests who accompanied him placed the pharaoh's statue in the boat-shaped shrine.
They set out carrying the shrine and traveled all over Kai Luo Cheng according to a fixed route.
From morning to night, and into the wee hours of the morning.
After changing several groups of people, the parade was completed.
This symbolizes the pharaoh's inspection of his capital.
The ceremony lasted for more than 30 hours, and Su Ying felt a little embarrassed watching it.
This feeling of being sacrificed is also too strange.
These sacrificial ceremonies are handed down from the Egyptian murals, perhaps just a ritual for the priests to comfort believers thousands of years ago.
Su Ying felt that there should be a sense of ritual in offering sacrifices to the gods, but it doesn't have to be so fancy.
Productivity is different.
Thousands of years ago, those who could wear linen clothes were nobles, and they had a bad style in offering sacrifices to gods.
And now... why do you follow the ritual of offering sacrifices to beggars?
But since Alston arranged the sacrificial ceremony, Su Ying felt that he should encourage it.
Ramesses II on the dark night sunboat inspected the land, and when he saw his statue parading around the street and returning to the altar, he nodded slightly.
The solar ship in the sky is shining brightly, and the warm light is shining down.
As if matching the sun ship that suddenly burst into light, countless colorful light spots suddenly floated on the ground.
There were more and more light spots, gradually covering Luo Cheng.
"what is this?"
"The Grand Temple of Dan Della!"
"The Great Temple of Karnak!"
"The Great Temple of Abu Simbel...so many temples!"
"It's the temple complex, and it's the scene that appeared when the pharaoh recovered!"
“Last time it only covered the area near the museum, but now it covers the entire Luo Cheng!”
"His Majesty Meliamon has passed the period of weakness, this is his true strength!"
"This is a miracle!"
"Praise be to His Majesty the Great Sun King!"
The light and shadow changed, and the surrounding scenery gradually became illusory, but the temple complex became more and more real.
People knelt down one after another.
Some people were full of surprises, while others showed reverent expressions.
Spots of light and sunlight are quickly outlined, and in the blink of an eye, ancient temple buildings that can be touched are turned from virtual to real.
Solid stone bricks, thick and ancient dwellings.
A stone picked up at random is full of dust.
At this moment, it was as if everyone had returned to the past, and an extremely unreal sense of illusion emerged in everyone's hearts.
The high priest standing on the high platform looked at the Temple of Philae and the Temple of Ramesses II in the distance, and he murmured:
"Thebes! This is the real holy city Thebes! The human dwelling place of the gods!"
From the end of the Old Kingdom, the holy place of the ancient Egyptians was transferred from Memphis to Thebes.
After hundreds of years of continuous destruction and reconstruction, the two pharaohs who contributed most to the construction of the holy city of Thebes were Ramses II and Tutankhamun I.
After its splendor, Thebes was finally wiped out under the iron hooves of the invaders, leaving only a few architectural wreckage.
And now, the existence above the height of 10,000 meters is Ramses II, the greatest pharaoh in Egyptian history.
It seems to be a matter of course that He can summon the holy city of Thebes.
Compared with the glorious sun rune covering the entire sky of Egypt, the holy land of Thebes on the ground is already very low-key. .
