Pivot of the Sky

Chapter 143: Calling the Most Beautiful Girl

He even called the name that had not been mentioned for a long time, and Maria's long eyelashes trembled slightly, looking back at the table in front of her, and whispering, "How do you understand?"

Amon replied: "It's just a very simple truth. I have personally verified that when I lost the power to command thousands of armies and horses, I didn't feel that I had lost anything, not even thinking about it! I kept thinking about the lost power, because the path I pursued was so difficult, but it never belonged to me. I am not trying to find the power, nor am I giving up the power, whether I have it or not, it will not change. It's still me sitting in front of you, Amon, just like whether I'm a great empire or not! "

Maria smiled: "You finally understand that this is not a test of your strength. Your former strength and magic are exactly the troubles of today. Just like ordinary noodles, it has not changed, but when a person tastes Can I still enjoy the deliciousness of Zhenye? But Zhenye or Zhenye does not mean giving up! "

Amon also laughed: "Listening to you, you should have eighth-level achievements, congratulations! May I ask a few questions? I have not seen relevant records in the books of the Temple of Isis. Is there anything else? When a samurai or a great magician is promoted from the seventh level to the eighth level, he also faces such a test? "

Maria thought for a while and replied, "There is no clear record, but this situation may happen. A seventh-level warrior who has cultivated to the peak of his strength sometimes feels as weak as a newborn baby. When you grow up, you can get powerful power. Some of them will be promoted to eight-level samurai. Some seventh-level wizards will practice to the peak of the realm, and they will feel that the growth of mana is unbearable, so that they cannot adapt to it. Use of magic. It does not happen to everyone, and the duration and form of expression are not the same. I have never heard of it like you. "

Sure enough, there is a similar situation. No wonder the old lunatic would leave a message like that in the pupil of the earth. Amon asked curiously: "How did it cause it, and why is it not recorded in the classics?"

Maria frowned slightly, and thought and replied: "The number of great warriors or great wizards is very small, this situation may not occur, and it appears in different forms. In the classics of the Temple of Isis I mentioned a few, but they are not very clear. There are many related records in the archives of the Aju God School. The power of the great wizard or warrior is troubled. Generally, it is not publicly known to others, but only to the gods. Or ask the trusted High Priest in private.

Some people think that this is a test of the gods, and some people think that it is a contempt for the gods after the power has expanded, and the faith has been shaken so that they are punished by the gods. But by far the most authoritative point of view is that there are errors or deviations in cultivation. After all, in this realm, there are not too many system experiences that can be fully referenced, and many are personal explorations. "

Amon leaned forward involuntarily and asked with great interest, "How can I help them?"

Maria: "There are no certain rules, each person's situation is different. If the samurai feels weak, insist on the most basic exercise, and grow like a new or reborn, according to some people, it is like a seed sprouting in the body, obtained Brand new blood, this time will be promoted to eight samurai, but more people just restored their strength and did not advance.

As for the great magician, they often ask the gods for help in prayer and reflect on whether their faith is shaken. Generally, they need to meditate quietly behind closed doors, and the results are usually these two. Occupational theology seminars occasionally hold a private ceremony to help them restore strength.

The main purpose of this ritual is to let them feel the gaze of the gods, to make the faith pure and firm, and not to despise the gods because of the expansion of power. It has no fixed form and varies from person to person. It is neither like the initial awakening of power nor the second awakening of power held by the great warrior. Only a great magician with such experience can give guidance. "

Amon nodded thoughtfully and said, "Reawakening power."

Maria also nodded, "Did you give a special name to this ritual? Do you also need me to hold such a ritual for you?" When she spoke, she looked at Amon with a smile and smiled, and she also had the meaning. Similar experience, but has successfully passed the test to become the eighth level magician.

Amon stood up and saluted: "I don't know how to express my gratitude. If there is such a ceremony, you have already held it for me."

Maria blinked, and her expression was as playful as a little girl: "Amon, how can you thank me?"

This sentence asked Amon, as if it was one of the most difficult questions in the world. How can he thank her? Maria has done too much for Amon, not only saved his life by the Ronnie River, took him back to the Temple of Isis to provide shelter, but also directed him to find the people of Duke Town, let him learn the art of warfare, He was recommended to be the commander of the legion, seizing a seemingly impossible opportunity to fulfill his wish. Amon built incredible feats with his own efforts, but all this would be unimaginable without Maria's help and guidance.

He stood there for a long time before answering, "I don't know how to thank you. Without you, I would not have everything today. But I can do nothing for you except sitting here and staring at you?"

As the guardian maiden of the Temple of Isis, Maria has nothing short of wealth and power that can be possessed on earth. In the Eju Empire, she only needed to salute the gods and pharaohs, and she was on an equal footing with the prince of the empire and the chief veteran of the Imperial High School of the Empire. What Amon can give her, Maria already has, what Maria doesn't have, Amon can't give her, she is a benefactor that he can never repay.

It was rare for Maria to make a joke with Amon, but Amon replied so seriously and solemnly, and the two were silent for a while. Amon stood, Maria sitting, her eyes intertwined looking at each other's eyes. After a while, Maria whispered: "I know your strength, your will is almost perfect, but I see your weakness in your eyes. Without this weakness, you may become real Perfection and strength. "

weakness? At the moment Amon's eyes had only Maria's reflection! He lowered his eyes again and said, "Perhaps there are imperfections, which is the true perfection of life experience."

Maria watched him stop talking and finally laughed, no longer entangled in this topic, and raised his lips slightly, "You haven't answered my question yet, how can you thank me?"

Amon also laughed: "I really don't know how to thank you. My lord lady has nothing to say, I will never let go!"

Maria blinked: "Oh? In this case, I want to ask the general for something."

Amon snapped: "What do you want? As long as I have it, I can give it to you."

Maria looked up at the murals on the roof, and said slowly: "When you first came to Eju, you were to return Nero's relics. But Nero's will was not strictly enforced. One thing was mentioned in the article, allowing the person who returned the relics to consult one of his private notes.

When you came to the Temple of Isis, I made a special investigation and you didn't look at it. Later, I ordered someone to send that note to Monex, and the content specified by Nero was a scroll introduction called Destruction Storm. Nero once made a legendary storm of destruction, Amon, please tell me, is it in your hands? "

Amon nodded helplessly: "Yes, this scroll is in my hands, and I have gone through countless dangers."

Maria stretched out a hand across the table: "All I want is it, give it to me now!"

Amon asked inexplicably, "What do you want it to do?"

Maria's smile became a bit playful again: "General, you made such a decisive promise just now, why did you hesitate when I really asked for something? Give it to me first, then tell you why, take it out , You must take it with you. "

Armon reached into his arms and pulled out a small gray scroll from the clothes under the right rib, holding his hands a few steps forward, and carefully placed it on Maria's table. Then he did not return, but looked at Maria with her hand on the table: "Master, now you can tell me, why do you want this scroll, and how do you know that I will take it with me?"

Maria reached out and picked up the most precious and dangerous scroll in the world, and gently rubbed and replied, "It's not that I need it, but you don't need it anymore! I checked the detailed introduction of this scroll, It is not developed by mana, but by the vow of devotion to life. Those who use it only need to have intermediate-level divine achievements, which is exactly the only scroll you can use at present. Why not take it with you? Seeing me, I can appreciate the hidden anxiety in your heart, and only by giving it to me can you truly be free from trouble. "

Amon sighed, "Please take this scroll and store it in the Temple of Isis."

Maria actually laughed out loud. She suddenly beckoned, took out an identical gray scroll out of thin air, and threw it to Amon, "Thank you for giving me such a precious thing, and I will give you back a gift. "

Amon reached out to catch it, panicking in shock: "Destroy the storm! Do you even have one? ... Ah, it seems a bit wrong!" That is, Amon in front of Maria, the other party threw out the destruction storm, not only did he not hide If you do n’t flash, you will reach out and catch it. If you change the situation, I ’m afraid that you have already broken the door and ran away.

Maria laughed: "Did you find it wrong? This scroll is indeed a storm of destruction. It has exactly the same materials and production methods, but it was not written successfully. It was blank after it was unrolled. When it broke out, the attack range Everyone will feel the traction and fluctuations of life force, but will not be harmed in any way. "

Amon couldn't help crying: "Fake! Who would make such a scroll?"

Maria shook her head and said, "It's quite difficult to process such a scroll. A long time ago, the Temple of Isis concentrated a group of great wizards in an attempt to make a storm of destruction, but failed many times and eventually failed, leaving only The next such scroll is almost blank. This blank scroll has been made several times, which is the basis for processing the destruction storm, but it cannot successfully consolidate the mana to write it, and it will be destroyed every halfway, even causing an energy explosion leading to serious casualties. So had to give up.

This last blank scroll is still extremely precious. In theory, it can continue to process the real storm of destruction, but in my opinion it is no longer necessary. You are the only person in the world who has a real storm of destruction, so you can detect that something is wrong, but can others tell? Even if you can tell it and suspect it is fake, who dares to make this bet?

I know the real storm of destruction is in your hands, and there must be others who know it. The power of this scroll is not that you use it, but that people know you own it. If one day you really use it, it is nothing more than choosing a way to self-destruct. I will never want to see this day. Do you understand now, why should I do this? "

Amon finally understood Maria's intentions completely and couldn't help but want to hold her hand, but didn't really extend her hand, so she stood at the table and stared at her. The two were more than three feet away, and they could feel each other's breath when breathing. Maria looked up at Amon, suddenly lowered her eyelashes and said, "Why do you live like this? Maybe it's time to get married, in fact ..."

Amon interrupted her: "I'm still young and don't want to talk about this!"

At this time Gabriel yelled outside the door and said, "Sir, my lord, Monsignor seeks advice and talks with you about the blessing ceremony."

Maria sighed softly and put away the storm of destruction, raising her tone of majesty and responding: "Please come in, it happens that General Amon is also there."

...

After resigning from Maria, he left the temple with the Lord of Daya, and Amon returned to his temporary residence in the city of Memphis, and immediately called Medanzo, and instructed him to return to the territory to do something. Amon finally decided to let Moses and others set off, nominally they were Amon's slaves, and went to another territory to be reclaimed under the orders of the general.

On the way, these people had to pass the border check of Eju. Amon did not **** him, but gave Moses a warrant to let him lead the people back home. Amon also ordered Medanzo and Link to follow in secret, and if there was any unexpected danger, he quietly resolved without having to show up openly. When these people encounter danger, Medanzo and Link can appear in the name of Arroel's messenger in time, giving guidance of confidence and courage.

During this journey, you must first cross the borders of Egypt and the deserts, jungles, wastelands, swamps that monsters run through. It is also a test of will and faith. Under normal circumstances, the main dangers encountered during this trip should be in the deserts and swamps outside Eju, while in Eju's territory, the official road between city states can be used. In order to make things easier, Amon handed over several precious magical instruments around him, including the crystal shuttle, the chasing lamp, and the squinting eye mirror to Medanzo and Link.

Medanzo left Monforth that afternoon. Moses and others dragged their homes. There were dozens of cars and a large number of living supplies. The speed on the road would not be too fast. It would take at least several months to reach the Duke Plain.

Medanzo was gone, and John was bored, because Amon only browsed various books in the room on weekdays, and rarely went out. His guard captain couldn't go out. Amon saw it, and asked John with a smile while having dinner that day: "Before going to Horeb, you lived in Memphis. Where do you usually go to play at night? It ’s okay to take me around and see me. Fan. "

John was overjoyed, Haha laughed: "General, I have been waiting for you to say this! You can just follow me, I'll treat you tonight!"

Amon changed his comfortable clothes and went out with John. He didn't bring any guards. John drove by himself and went to a very busy district in the west of the city. It was far from the temple but close to the place where the shops were concentrated. John parked in front of the gate of a brightly lit courtyard. Amon's expression looked strange. This place turned out to be the most luxurious brothel in the city of Memphis.

Amon knew this place. Before Aesop accompanied him to go shopping, he once walked by the door of this brothel. He also specifically mentioned that it only accepted aristocrats. The Western European master was so rich but could not enter and have fun. Western Europe at that time was not aristocracy, nor was Amon, but Amon had never been in a brothel, and there was nothing to regret.

At the sight of Amon's expression, John was happy, grabbed his arm and whispered, "Oh God, Amon, you should be experienced in all aspects of the world. You must know that life is not only about cultivation or fighting. The general is so young and handsome, so he should show up in such places! "

Amon was pulled in without explanation, and John was obviously familiar, even the folks here knew him. As soon as he entered the door, he instructed the servants of the brothel to take the carriage away, and then opened his throat to say hello, asking someone to arrange the best incense hall for him.

They entered a separate small fragrant hall, the so-called small hall was absolutely not small in size, with large lounge chairs, and wine and food on the table in front. There was a pool in front of the table. The pool turned out to be warm water and sprinkled with petals. After sitting down, someone played the instrument, the band played behind a screen, and couldn't see the situation in the hall.

As soon as John sat down, he instructed his fellows to call all the best girls here, and make a song and dance on the carpet in front of the pool, so that the general would appreciate it. If Amon sees one or more of them, he stays with him.

Time is not long, there are more than a dozen flowery girls, dancing across the pool in the hall. The clothes they wore were very “fun”. They were all in umbilical breasts. Their full **** covered only the two highest points, but a string of curtain-shaped metal pendants hung on their chests. sound. The skirt was cut a lot, and the long and seductive thighs were exposed when the waist was twisted. This kind of half-hiding and half-hiding is a more exciting ambition.

They don't wear much clothes, but they are wearing a veil. This veil can't cover the face, because it is almost transparent, decorated with pieces of glittering things, which make the girl's looming face even more glamorous. They twisted their bodies to make a variety of sultry postures, but chanted noble poems gently in their mouths, which made people want to seduce.

Amon was the first time to see such a scene, but his performance was similar on any occasion. The nineteen-year-old never wastes food. When he saw the wine and food on the table in front of him, he began to take it seriously. Eat and drink, chew slowly and take a sip of wine from time to time. Occasionally, I heard some of the poems sung by the girls were very good. Then Amon raised her head and looked at it twice, then continued to eat and drink.

John looked at it with interest, leaning his legs on the glass, and tapping the glass with his fingers beat the beat. After a song, John turned his head and asked, "General, which ones do you like? Let them walk through the pool."

The rules here are very particular. If the guests want any girls to stay, the girls need to walk over the pool and get wet when they come to the guests. This is a deliberately arranged taste or mood, as well as those impatient guests. When the girl entered the pool, she took off her coat and jumped into the pool to play.

Amon froze, lowered the cup and looked up: "John, you take care of yourself, I don't want anyone to stay."

John scratched his head and sneered: "Your eyes are high, admire your subordinates!" Then he waved at the girls across the pool: "You all stay, stay with me!"

The girls were very disappointed. When they heard these words, they laughed and jumped into the pool and ran over, splashing water.

Amon and John were seated on two sides, and their recliners could be separated by screens. The long large lounge chair is very spacious, even if it is a bed, it is no problem, but these dozen girls ran to John, and they were not crowded to sit down. Two of them simply sat on John's leg, but They looked at Amon secretly with curious eyes.

The guy was strong and handsome. In fact, the girls were more willing to accompany him, but Amon didn't care about it, which made people angry. Amon did not change his face. He was still drinking and eating while sitting there, using a knife to pick the meat on the bones very clean. This made the girls wonder, if you want to eat, you can go to the restaurant. Is it so much to eat here for food?

When John saw the scene, he immediately shouted, "Call your boss Dylan!"

After a while, the owner of the brothel came in. When he saw a dozen girls drinking around John, he secretly grieved. Dylan has known this John for a long time. John did not fight here a few years ago ***. He once drunk and injured several noble children of the big family. He almost demolished a small room in the brothel. .

Why is this uncle here again? How terrible! The boss asked cautiously: "It turned out that Lord John is here, welcome! Is there anything you are not satisfied with, and is there anything else you want to command?"

John took the two wet girls on his legs and patted the table. "Of course I'm not satisfied. Have you seen that? That's my noblest friend, and my vision is the highest. Go and take your best girl. Call them all! "
