From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Asking for help off the field?

Senmut and Karsha both showed a look of bewilderment.But Nanna, the head maid who has been by Erich's side all the time, has roughly understood what's going on.

She immediately summoned Gregor, the sailors and guards, and asked them to clear an area on the top of the terrace for Erich to rest, and set up a woolen blanket as a tent to block her sight.

"Are you going to ask relevant insiders?"

Through a brief exchange, Karsha finally had a general understanding of what the First Princess wanted to do.

This is something that can be done with some special items, Karsha is no longer surprised.Instead, he ordered his men to wait on the other side of the terrace very gentlemanly.He can also turn around at any time, avoiding any action of Alicia.

Both parties have their own special items, he doesn't want to show them off easily, and the other party certainly doesn't want him to find out the details.Karsha's move is not only respect for the other party but also for himself.

However, Alixi hesitated for a moment.

She had already thought about who she would turn to for help—if there was a problem in any field, she would go to the god of that field.

Now that the living world and the underworld are superimposed, she naturally went to find Opt, the priest of Anubis.

After all, the god Anubis is the subordinate god of Osiris, the god of the underworld, and he should have a detailed understanding of the authority of the god of the underworld.

But how would she deliver the message to the priests of Anubis?

When Opt was still an envoy before, he couldn't see the spirit body formed by Erich after passing through the Eye of Horus.Now that he has become the priest of the gods, Erich guesses he still can't see it.

Because many of those who can see her spirit body are ordinary people with special bodies, regardless of their personal status.

Erich summed it up, she has about three to four options when it comes to delivering the news——

One is to use the Eye of Horus to take another person to meet the priest of Anubis.The best choice for this candidate is High Priest Senmut, who is rich in knowledge and superb personality, and should be able to discuss a reason with Priest Anubis soon.

The second is to borrow a door from Kalsha, the Hittite prince.As long as Priest Anubis passes through that door, he can see Erich's spirit body and communicate.

But both options have a problem: Elyse doesn't want Senmut to know her Eye of Horus' secret yet.After all, the high priest has always declared his allegiance to the pharaoh of this country.

As for Karsha, Erich glanced at his Hittite followers, and saw that they were carrying luggage, large and small, high and low, and there should be a certain door or a few doors inside.But Erich doubted that Karl Shaken would not lend out easily.

If these options are not convenient to choose, the only thing left is to send a letter to the priest of Anubis.

In fact, Erich was not even sure Opter could read the hieroglyphs in monk script.

But this is not a big problem, because the priests of Anubis will probably perform their duties in the temple of Osiris, and there will always be a priest or two who understand the monk's script.

"It's not too late..." Once Erich made up her mind, she asked Senmut for help.

"Master High Priest, I need you to write a letter for me."

Before Senmut agreed, Karsha, who was too enthusiastic, had already ordered his followers to unpack the luggage when he heard the word "write a letter", and took out a large clay tablet and wedge-shaped pen from it, and handed it to Elyse— —

Erich and Senmut?

It was not until Senmut took out the papyrus, reed pen and ink sticks that he carried with him in his cuffs that Kalsha realized that he was too enthusiastic. The Egyptian writing system was fundamentally different from Hittite's, and the tools were also completely different.

The Hittite prince backed away embarrassingly, realizing that he was sometimes too arrogant and always took everything for granted.

Senmut listened to Erich's dictation and left a row of neat and elegant hieroglyphs on the papyrus.

Hansu leaned over his head and stared at the complex-shaped fonts flowing out of Senmut's pen. He snorted and said excitedly, "Master High Priest, is this the kind of symbol you taught us?"

Alicia?

Could it be that Senmut is trying to break Egypt's monopoly on writing and teach monk-style hieroglyphs to common children like Hunsu?

She looked at Senmut immediately, eager in her heart, so her eyes seemed to be looking at a treasure.

Senmut felt the eagerness even if he didn't see her eyes, and even his neck was slightly red in an instant.He could only try to answer Hansu: "No...it's not the same, what I teach you is simpler."

Erich was even happier. She believed that with Senmut's talent, he would be able to create characters suitable for the public to read and write on the basis of the hieroglyph and monk script.

It's just that now is not the time to be distracted by this. For a while, Senmut scribbled down a few questions that Ailixi needed to ask the priest of Anubis, and then asked: "Can you deliver this letter to Anubis?" Sir Priest Si, if he didn't pay attention for a while, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

The priests of the Temple of Osiris would have handled some official documents related to sacrifices, and there were many letters written in monks' style in the temple.

And Priest Anubis couldn't see her spirit body... Erich thought about it, and thought this might be a problem.

So Senmut suggested: "Why don't you draw the mark of your god... God Amon at the end of the letter?"

Alicia was overjoyed: God Amon finally has a mark now.

But she immediately had another worry: the mark of God Amon was completely designed with the help of her favored one, and only Biola of Tanis and a small group of people around her knew this in the world.

Even if Priest Anubis saw it, he might not be able to recognize it.

But she couldn't tell Senmut about this, and she couldn't tell him that my god was too new, and the logo was only released after I helped design it recently, and it hasn't been promoted yet...

She suddenly had an idea, and replied to Senmut: "High Priest, this is a good idea. I think you might as well draw the mark of God Tut on it. This is the two of us going to the priest of Anubis letter asking."

In this way, even if Opt cannot recognize the mark of God Amon, he can at least recognize the special symbol of God Tut.

Senmut thought for a while and found it reasonable, without any objection, raised his hand and drew a key——

God Tut's mark, and then handed the ink pen to Erich, and she drew the wheel of fortune with eight spokes.

Under the protection of Nanna, Elysee entered the Eye of Horus and pointed to the priest of Anubis.

When she used the Eye of Horus, she avoided the sight of Senmut and Karsha.

But those two were more or less aware of it, one was because they felt it when they lived together underground in Saqqara;

The other is a spirit who has seen her after entering the Eye of Horus under special circumstances.

Elixir ignored them and just acted on her own, and soon she found herself floating on the wall of the Temple of Osiris without a sound.

Opt, the priest of Anubis, was standing in front of the dark green statue of Osiris in a daze.

Erich held the letter with wet ink and walked directly to Opt.

In Opter's eyes, he was probably seeing a letter written on papyrus, appearing out of thin air, flying towards him slowly, and showing him two marks drawn on the papyrus at the end of the letter: The key of knowledge of the god Tut and the wheel of fortune of the god Amon.

A look of surprise suddenly appeared in Opte's warm eyes, and he stopped in place. Only when Alicia stopped in front of him and held the letter in front of his eyes, did she stretch out her hands and respectfully hand over the letter to him. The letter was received.

Then he turned around and bowed to the statue of Osiris, while muttering softly in his mouth: "Thank the gods for giving Priest Anubis the ability to read."

After reading the letter twice, he froze in place for a moment, probably expressing some kind of speechless emotion towards the events described in the letter.

Immediately afterwards, Opt knelt down in front of the statue of Osiris, stretched out his hands flat and forward, made a gesture of prayer, and muttered to himself in a low voice.

Erich was very close to him, and could hear him saying words like overlapping failure displacement.

Opt then fell into a complete long silence.It seems to be listening to the oracle, and it seems to be thinking silently.

Please go out and solve this problem now!Let me see once again the amazing power you possess.

Alice thought expectantly.

Last time, she successfully invited Opt to solve the problem of Senet chess, and helped Opt to be promoted from envoy to priest. Both sides benefited a lot.

Finally, Opt got up from the statue of Osiris and turned around, as if facing an invisible figure in the void.

In fact, Alicia's spirit body was standing in front of Opte, and Opte's eyes could not focus on her face.Instead, he could only look at the void behind her with a little bewilderment and helplessness.

"A messenger who can freely shuttle between various directions..." As soon as Opt opened his mouth, Erich immediately understood that the other party had already guessed that she was sending messages back and forth.

"The gods have already known about the problem you discovered—"

"But it will not drive Asut who is loyal to him to solve it."

Alicia!

If anyone could look directly at her spiritual body at this moment, they would find her face full of shock, as if she couldn't believe what she heard.The astonishment turned into disappointment in an instant.

The psychological gap was too great, and Alixi couldn't accept it for a while.

Could it be that after Opte was promoted to the priest of God, similar incidents did not help him much.So this priest is not even willing to make a move?

However, after a while, this huge psychological gap disappeared without a trace, and she quickly digested all the disappointments.

Alicia thought to herself: This is normal, there is no one in this world who is born to owe someone, and no one is born to help her.

But looking at Opte's expression, he seemed to be equally immersed in pain and shock, no less than Erich.

In fact, every word he said was very difficult: "The city of Asiut was not corrupted by the power of Isfat. It was the people of Asiut who were punished because of their greed and the crimes they committed in the past." It is the punishment from the gods. Therefore, it leads to the overlap of the living world and the underworld."

If Opte could see Erich's expression clearly at this moment, the priest would have seen undisguised astonishment and shock.

How could the city of Asiut not be eroded by the power of Isfat-Sen Mut should have clearly written in the letter that they met the envoy of the cobra goddess Wajit in this city.

Elyse was by Senmut's side, watching him carefully draw the symbols of the Cobra Goddess and Isfad.

The authority of the god of the underworld Osiris in Upper Egypt has indeed been shaken and eroded.But he didn't choose to take the initiative to fight back and take control of the situation?Instead, just find an excuse and stand by.

In addition, this matter not only involves all the living and dead in this city, but also involves outsiders such as her, Senmut, Karsha and so on.They are now also trapped in this city and cannot get out.

Erich's eyes bypassed Opt's always gentle and loving face, and looked directly at the dark green statue of Osiris behind him.

The God of Hades' categorical denial of certain facts and his indifference caused strong doubts in Alicia's heart.

She still remembered what the fennec fox demigod said——

It is likely that the god Osiris was behind the chaos at the Harvest Festival.Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that this god is actually targeting Erich.

The god Osiris was hostile to her at the time?

Is it still the case?

So this god would rather sit back and watch an entire city where both the living and the dead are desperate, rather than trap her in that city?

Alicia silently stared at the dark green god statue, staring directly at the pair of obsidian god statue eyes, as if trying to recognize any emotion she could recognize.

However, the pair of eyes are dead objects after all, motionless, unable to convey any emotion such as sympathy or resentment.

But at this moment, Opte, with a painful expression on his face, suddenly said: "The way to break the overlap between the living world and the underworld is very simple - find the boundary stone that distinguishes the two worlds, and return it to its original position."

"Dear... Messenger..." The priest of Anubis, who belonged to the god Osiris, changed his words abruptly, and finally did not directly say Erich's name.

"Please believe in your own strength, then you will be guided by Ma'at, and all problems will be solved."

Alicia: This is what I want!

She knew that the priests of Anubis could not see her spirit body.But he still nodded quickly and politely to the other party, and then immediately logged out of the Eye of Horus and returned to the city of Asiut.

Just after her spirit body left the Temple of Osiris, the air pressure in the temple suddenly dropped and silver snakes ran wildly. Priest Anubis couldn't support his body, bent his knees, and instantly knelt down on the flat surface of the temple. on the slate floor.

Immediately there was a loud bang, and a shiny spherical Jiao Lei kept rolling around the head of Priest Anubis.

"Great god, don't Asiut... the living and the dead in the whole city, are they not worth protecting?"

Priest Anubis, however, had unwillingness and bewilderment in his eyes, and stubbornly raised his head, always looking at the green-skinned Osiris statue.

He followed the will of the gods, but wanted an answer.

"Found a solution—"

Alicia announced the good news to everyone as soon as she opened her eyes.But nothing is said about the god Osiris refusing to let his priests come to his rescue.

For a moment, everyone on the small terrace was excited, as if the legendary first princess would soon lead everyone to escape the creepy city.

Erich spoke out the information she received in an orderly manner: "First find the boundary stone that separates the two realms, and then put it back in its original place——Karam, do you have any ideas? Is it possible to place boundary stones in the city of the underworld?"

Kalam opened his mouth wide, and shook his head after a long time, saying, "No...will the dead need this?"

In this world, no matter the living or the dead, the separation between the two worlds is a natural thing, and no one would think that there is a need for boundary stones between them.

"Is that so..."

Alicia snorted and frowned, as if she had just taken the first step of her attempt and didn't go well.

Where can I find the boundary stone between the two worlds?

Erich held her chin, glanced across Senmut's face, and saw the high priest's golden eyes staring at her intently.

She turned her head away again and looked at Kalsha, the Hittite prince standing aside.I saw Kalsha lazily leaning against a stone pillar on the terrace, with his chin raised, as if a young man of later generations was ready to strike up a conversation with a girl, and his eyes involuntarily turned towards Elyse slip over.

Does this guy look like he's hiding something to show off?

Alixi pondered for a moment, then immediately raised her head to Karsha and asked, "Ka... Ka... Adventurer Mr. Sharka, I remember that you have an item that helped you find this relatively safe place. Can you change the target for it? pointing to?"
