A true hero marries a man by his appearance [Comprehensive]

Roughly speaking, Moses has not seen Ozymandias for more than ten days.

Although before that, they didn't see each other very often.

Ozymandias had to be trained in the army, but Moses never maintained himself as a member of the royal family, and would often sneak into the market to understand the sufferings of people's lives.

It's just... just because Moses knew what his brother-in-law was busy with during this time, he couldn't help being curious while wishing his brother all the best with peace of mind.

After so many days, everyone in the palace knew that Prince Ozymandias was practicing with his new martial arts teacher.

The teacher's name was Eddie, and his origin and identity were unknown, but for some reason he was favored by Pharaoh.

So far, no one has ever seen that foreigner show his real skills, except for the fact that he subdued Shenjun in public.

But no one who ever met Eddie had any doubts that the man was something.

It is very rebellious to say so, but the fact is——even the great Pharaoh was a little self-conscious and did not dare to look directly at that man.

Now everyone knows again that under the hands of the new martial arts teacher, the prince has lived a cruel life that can definitely be described as dire straits.

Today, Moses returned to the palace from the slums and found that his brother-in-law was not in the palace, so he asked people about Ozymandias' recent situation.

He also learned that Ozymandias had left the city a few days ago.

Not only did he leave the palace, but he walked out of the capital directly.

"Master Eddie made a request to His Highness the Prince."

"He wants the prince to spend ten days alone in the desert. After ten days, he will come back alone... Oh my god, how could His Royal Highness suffer such a crime! But Pharaoh actually..."

Needless to say, the wise and mighty Pharaoh still acquiesced, and even the prince himself didn't seem to have any objections. As soon as he heard the request, he turned around and left the palace without looking back.

However, they are so calm, but they want to scare others to death.

Ozymandias' biological mother, Her Royal Highness the current princess, fainted unbearably the first time she heard about this incident.

Living for ten days in a desert where there are almost signs of life and countless potential murderous opportunities - this is already very scary for ordinary people.What's more, the prince was still so young that he knew almost nothing about the dangers of the desert.

But the most difficult thing is not here.

In the desert, there are also sphinxes.

The sphinx, or sphinx, is the highest level mythical beast comparable to a dragon.

This group of divine beasts takes the desert as their territory. They can set off sandstorms that cover the sky, disorient travelers who stray into the desert, and if they are unlucky, they will actively attack humans who enter the desert.

The Sphinx is the real "danger" that represents death in the desert. No wonder the princess had such a violent reaction when she heard that Ozymandias had resolutely gone to the desert.

When Moses heard the news, he couldn't help being startled.

After a short pause, he immediately went to appease his adoptive mother, and heard countless worries about Ozymandias from the adoptive mother, the princess, and many more—albeit relatively cryptic complaints.

"How could he let Ozymandias go to such a dangerous place alone? Doesn't he know what the desert means?"

Moses was also thinking about this question. He didn't care as much as the princess, so he was confused. When his thoughts changed, he thought of something deeper.

However, he couldn't tell the truth to the princess what he was thinking, so the wise young man comforted him gently: "Don't worry too much. Since the lord asked Ozymandias to go, he must have a well-thought-out plan. Let him be in danger."

"Yes, the king said so too..."

The princess actually understood this truth.

She could not question Pharaoh's decision, but this did not affect her from the perspective of a mother, who was dissatisfied with the foreigners who forced her children into desperation.

After telling her adoptive son, the princess finally felt much better.Moses had also achieved his goal, so he retreated and let the princess rest well.

After coming out of the princess, Moses did not return to his biological mother outside the palace.

He already had an idea in his heart, and immediately put the plan into practice.

First of all, Moses first searched for traces of Ozymandias' teacher, the man named Eddie, within the scope of the palace.

According to the palace people, Eddie stayed in a fixed place every day and was easy to find.However, he went around all the fixed places today, but he didn't find the man.

There was no disappointment on Moses' face, but a slight smile.

He only glanced at the man at the palace banquet that day, and he had a general idea of ​​his appearance. Afterwards, he left a deep impression on the pair of eyes that were somewhat similar to Ozymandias.

Logically speaking, for a stranger who hasn't even said a word and can only barely say that he has met once, it is impossible to infer the other party's personality so easily.

But Moses knew what was going on, and he was less and less worried about Ozymandias.

Then Moses left the palace.

Afterwards, Moses left the capital.

Going all the way, without stopping - repeating Ozymandias' direct route to the desert exactly.

The last step, which is also a crucial step: find Ozymandias who is struggling to survive in a corner of the desert.

This step took longer to complete than the previous ones, but perhaps with the blessing of the gods, Moses finally found Ozymandias smoothly.

The first time he saw his righteous brother whom he hadn't seen for more than ten days, if he hadn't been so familiar with that face, Moses almost didn't recognize him.

"…………puff."

"Moses, if you want to laugh, you can make a noise. Although it is very unpleasant, I will forgive you."

As Ozymandias said, he raised his hand expressionlessly, then lowered it again, and quickly pierced the poisonous scorpion that was about to climb onto his leg with a knife.

The venom that exploded from the scorpion's body splashed onto the dry sand, making a harsh crunching sound and emitting a smoky stench.

However, the pampered prince didn't even twitch his eyelids, he only curled his mouth, showing a little disgusted expression.

Moses was still praising: "Good skill!"

The boast is very sincere, because before entering the desert, Ozymandias's reaction was definitely not as fast as he showed just now.Obviously, it's been worked out here.

Well, the price of growth is being dusted by sandstorms, and the short brown hair that is only a little bit upturned on weekdays is all turned up, and it seems to be fixed, and it is impossible to recover in a short time.

Before Moses found him, Ozymandias set up a rough tent on the sand dunes. The space was so narrow that Moses could barely squeeze in and sit down.

After sitting down, Moses asked: "What's the matter, you seem to be in a particularly bad mood, because you have suffered enough here?"

As soon as the words fell, Ozymandias' face darkened again, and he obviously took a big breath.

"No! What kind of suffering is this? Let alone ten days, I can persist in a month."

"Ah... that is, have a grudge against a specific person?"

Ozymandias: "Cut."

The prince was very disdainful of his brother's guess and guessed completely wrong.

He stuck the knife that had pierced the scorpion into the sand beside him, straightened his expression, and said to Moses: "During this period of time, I have been proving to the teacher that I am much stronger than he thinks."

Moses: "Huh?"

"However, he still didn't agree with me. He regarded me as a novice with no foundation and no self-consciousness. He made me run laps, laps, laps all day long, and didn't teach me anything useful."

Moses: "Oh~"

"Could he still be perfunctory to me? He thinks that I must not be able to persist, so he wants me to retreat in such a way? Damn--now send me here, there is no way to continue to challenge him, so he can relax in the palace comfortable!"

Moses: "Ah..."

This is called no resentment, the resentment is already quite deep.

Ozymandias had a lot of complaints about Eddie not teaching him seriously, so he ran to the desert so readily, perhaps because he wanted to let Eddie see how determined he was.

Moses could understand the feelings of the righteous brother, and he also knew that the righteous brother seemed to hope that he would also condemn such an irresponsible teacher.

But... Moses said in his heart, sorry to disappoint you. .

But, this should be a good thing for you.

"No, you misunderstood, Ozymandias."

Ozymandias: "Huh?"

Moses put his shoulders on his shoulders: "At least when I left, your teacher didn't stay in the palace, as leisurely as you thought."

He saw his righteous brother's dull expression for a moment as he wished, and then told him happily: "If you guessed correctly, your teacher..."

"It should also be in this desert, and it's quite close to you."

The voice settled.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and before Ozymandias could react at all—the tent he had managed to prop up with dry wood was blown away!

There wasn't even a single piece of wood left, only the two teenagers who were still sitting cross-legged were left on the spot.

Moses was fine, and Ozymandias' face was still stagnant with a dull blankness.

That wind was another sandstorm.

His face was covered with yellow sand, and His Royal Highness was covered with yellow sand.

*****

Eddie was indeed in the desert, and, indeed, not far from Ozymandias and the others.

However, the truth of the matter is almost completely different from what a smart young man guessed—don't think too much, he didn't come to be a nanny for the apprentice of a prince with a long name and a self-confessed psychopath.

He is now in the ground covered by yellow sand.

Under the desert, there is a buried palace.

Although the humans who built this palace have long since ceased to exist, the remaining buildings are not silent, and have been chosen by the sphinx as their nest.

For this kind of divine beast, reproduction is the top priority, but their reproductive ability is extremely low, and the birth of every little Sphinx is very precious.

And this place under the ground is hidden enough that humans who come to the center of the desert cannot find it at all.And even if it is discovered, it is impossible to go deep into the lair.

Usually, the fragile sphinx cubs are kept in the deepest part of the den, not afraid of being caught.The Sphinx lived underground with peace of mind, and went out to scare humans when they had nothing to do, and created a sandstorm from time to time.

Well, the happy life of the Sphinxes should not have been disturbed.

But—three days ago, a human broke into the desert, which was originally just a trivial matter.

But he made the controllers of the desert, the Sphinxes vaguely uneasy.

Judging by human age, the intruder was still a human cub.

The Sphinx set off a sandstorm as usual, trying to trap the human cub in the storm, making it impossible for him to see where he was going, and thus lost in the desert that could devour a human being.

However, the sandstorm, as usual, blotted out the sky enough to flatten the dunes and sweep every living creature on the desert's surface into the center of the dust.

But the problem is... For some reason, the sandstorm can only last for a short time, and the more distorted wind suddenly disappeared before the sand dunes deformed.

The human cub crawled out of the sand after being staggered by the blowing. When he looked up, the sun was shining brightly above his head.

Wherever this human cub goes, there will be no deadly wind, and the sun will follow.

The sphinxes were shocked.

"No, if we let this cub walk out of the desert unscathed, where will we save our face!"——If the Sphinx could speak human words, he would definitely express his position in such an angry way.

oooooooo!

That's it!

The majestic sphinx, the highest mythical beast on the soil of Egypt, can't help mere human beings, and it's a deadly beast when it's said.

Seeing the human cubs expelling poisonous snakes and burning scorpions in the desert, wandering for the third day, they even set up a tent beside the sand dunes, pretending to be permanent—the Sphinxes decided Take action.

They have to meet this human being for a while to see if the sun can really shine on him all the time, and it doesn't matter if they kill human beings by cruel means.

In this way, the adult sphinxes are all gone, leaving only a few young cubs rolling around in the nest.

They left less than 100 meters aggressively.

After about 1 minutes.

“……………Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Swish Swish Swish!A large group of Sphinx came back again.

It's okay not to come back, as soon as they rushed back to the lair, the Sphinxes were almost scared to death by the scene in front of them.

Slowing down from the shock, what followed was incomparable anger!

During the time they left, unexpectedly... unexpectedly!A cunning human sneaked into their lair and captured the defenseless little sphinx.

"Ho-hoo!!!"

The Queen of the Sphinx as the leader let out a deafening roar.

Damn humans!

Facing the adult sphinxes who sensed the danger and rushed back to the lair, they didn't show any panic.

Or, to put it in an even more exaggerated way, he didn't take the so-called divine beasts to heart at all, so naturally he wouldn't be afraid.

At that time, the silver-haired and golden-eyed humans were lazily sitting on the half-collapsed broken throne in the depths of the palace.

He lifted the kitten-sized Sphinx cub by its tail and put it on his lap. He watched with interest as it crawled and rubbed on his body with meowing.

To be precise, all the cubs left in the den were killed by this unforgivable human -- wait?

In this scene, it is not so much that human beings cruelly abused the cubs of the beast, it is better to say that he is sitting there lazily, and the cubs are excitedly flapping their wings and crawling on him.

Adult Sphinx: "..."

This, how is this possible, absolutely unacceptable!Even if it is a cub, it has to look like a divine beast. How could it be so spineless to act like a baby and show off its belly to humans? !

Roaring sounded immediately, and the adult sphinx was bound to tear the bold human being in front of him to pieces for the sake of his cub.

They mean it.

Unfortunately……

The human finally raised his eyelids: "Oh, divine beast?"

"I can't count how many divine beasts I have slaughtered."

An understatement.

Add a couple of motions that are equally insouciant.

The ignorant sphinx cub's wings froze (frozen), and fell off the shoulders and arms of the human with a clatter. Only the one caught by the human and circling on its leg survived.

But directly ahead, the scene is even more miserable.

The adult sphinxes rushing forward roaring—the whole army was wiped out!

Without even a chance to resist tenaciously, he was beaten up and screamed by humans who had always been considered weak and incompetent.

Could it be... is this the end?

The noble and mighty divine beast was defeated by mere human beings, and will become slaves of human beings ever since.

Thinking not only of themselves, but also of the precious cubs who would be enslaved by humans, the Sphinxes who were beaten to death couldn't help but shed tears of misery and unwillingness.

At this moment, the human being leaning on the throne with crossed legs yawned.

"If I hadn't heard that you are becoming more and more unscrupulous, even harming villages on the edge of the desert, I wouldn't have the time to meddle in other people's affairs."

"Could it be that only your cubs are important, and human children are nothing? Tsk." I don't know what this human thought of, his golden eyes closed slightly, and the pouring coldness became stronger for a while.

The Queen of the Sphinx who was trampled by him could not even tremble.

The breath of death became more and more intense, and it was almost crushed from the top of the head. At the same time, it was only because the wings were frozen and fell off, and now the cubs were flapping their wings.

at this time.

Just when the Sphinx thought it was really a disaster.

Humans have spoken again.

It seemed that after pondering for a long time, he finally remembered someone who was still fending for himself in the desert, and he said casually, "Oh, let's do it."

"The prince of Egypt is now in the desert. If you can gain his trust, I will spare you and take only one cub as punishment."

Trade a cub for the lives of all other sphinxes...

Queen Sphinx only hesitated for half a second before resolutely agreeing to this deal.

So, about half an hour later—

Ozymandias, whose body is covered in sand and whose original color can no longer be seen, is somehow surrounded by a group of Sphinxes.

This group of Sphinxes seemed to have just escaped from the claws of some real wild beast, crying and shouting in stammered human language, they had heard the name of Prince Ozymandias a long time ago , You must abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and go to him to be his little brother.

Ozymandias: "..."

Moses: "Oh, isn't a good thing coming soon?"

seven days later.

The agreed ten days finally passed smoothly.

Ozymandias and Moses returned to Thebes, and with them came a mighty group of Sphinxes.

In an instant, the story of the prince bravely venturing into the desert and subduing the beast spread wildly.

The Egyptian people were all impressed by the prince's bravery and wisdom, and praised him with the most sincere words.

However, for the protagonist of the "brave and wise" story, he is not happy at all, and he is not satisfied.

The first thing he did when he returned to the palace was to find his teacher at the highest point of the palace - that old place.

"It's just ten days in the desert, and I'm completely fine!"

"Well, is it?"

"So, there is no need for you to follow up to protect me."

"Protect you? How come I don't know."

"There is no need for you to let the Sphinx listen to me and protect me openly."

"Are you kidding yourself outside, what nonsense you're talking about?"

Said Eddie, who was lying on the sun with his eyes closed.

Ozymandias clenched his fists in dissatisfaction, his face full of unquestionable stubbornness.

The things he believes will not be changed easily, not to mention - the flaws left by the man are already so obvious.

Looking up from below, there seemed to be something wriggling under the man's cloak.

After squirming a few times, a kitten-like blue cub came out from under the cloak, lay down on his chest familiarly, and snored.

Ozymandias saw the sphinx cub, and he was still saying dissatisfied words, but for some reason, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably:

"Okay, since you're too embarrassed to admit it, teacher, I'll just pretend I don't know. Now, it's today's challenge!"

Eddie clicked, "Go and wash off the sand all over your body before we talk."

It's really unbearable, this kid always likes to make up things that don't exist at all.

How could he have traveled so far to protect a kid who didn't care?

Just drop by, drop by.

after one day.

The prince who thought he had seen through the teacher's true thoughts suddenly found that the sphinx cub brought back by the teacher was missing.

ask him.

Eddie: "Where else can I give it away?"

He went to the desert just to pick a pet for a child who was pleasing to the eye.
