From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Ailixi could see clearly that the person who appeared next to Kong Si was tall and mighty, his muscles were knotted, and his skin was as shiny as dark satin—it was the leader of the Wutao people who had just escaped the curse. satiri.

He held a black cylindrical special object in his hand, which reminded Alicia instantly of the first time she faced Satyri, when the other party pressed the button, seventeen or eighteen poisoned arrow clusters suddenly shot out from her hand. situation.

What is shot from this special weapon is the arrow of the Snake Spirit Tree. It is said that seeing the blood seals the throat, and the arrow kills instantly.

After Ailixi reached a cooperation agreement with Baisi God, the Wutao people have been returned by Ailixi.

You can't play like this, even if the other party is a rude mercenary - Erich thought so, and hurriedly stopped.

Unexpectedly, Satyri didn't listen to her at all, and pressed the trigger as usual. From the black object like a tree trunk, dozens of tiny beans burst out instantly, and shot at the mercenaries in front of Elyse. .

With the sound of ouch, the mercenaries stretched out their hands to cover the parts of their bodies that had been shot.

Some of the legs and knee joints were shot at key positions, and at this moment they could no longer stand still and fell directly to the ground.

Alicia immediately understood that this thing was not fatal.But it really hurts when you hit someone.

Seeing that Satyri had finished launching a round, she walked forward, picked up a bean from the ground, held it in her hand and looked at it.

I saw that those were all pottery beans, a kind of toy made by the pottery workshop in Thebes for children to play with.

Satyri didn't pay attention to those mercenaries who were staggering around, and just looked at Ailixi with resentful eyes, as if to say: "The previous things are over, we Wutao people have stopped doing evil, you still have to How? What else do you want?"

Alixi was speechless, and could only give back a look: I didn't know you had already replaced the arrow of the snake spirit tree!

It seemed that the leader of the Wutao tribe was the first to get rid of the curse.Sure enough, according to what God Baisi said, he transferred his belief in God to God Amon, and he also regarded protecting Elyse as his duty.

It's just that his personality is still paranoid, even in the face of Alicia, he put on a stinky face full of resentment and disgust.

Do I really need such a guardian?

Alicia couldn't help but be in a daze.

At this moment, a bang was heard, and Kong Si, who had transformed into a killer, landed beside Elyse wearing huge wings.

But at this moment, the crisis has long been resolved, Erich is in a peaceful mood, Kong Si also instantly turned into the original pale boy, and his eyes returned to black and white.But it was full of confusion, scratching the back of his head and asking Erich.

The few mercenaries who fell to the ground and were in pain were terrified.

If the darker-skinned burly man just now shot something like an arrow cluster instead of Tao Dou from the strange weapon in his hand, they would have been finished long ago.

And this boy who can switch between the huge bird with wings and the ordinary human form at will can track them to the ends of the world.

It wasn't until then that they really realized that those rumors were true. This was the queen of Thebes who possessed powerful force and her dignity was inviolable. To deal with mercenaries like them, she didn't need to do it herself.

"What happened?"

Footsteps sounded in the distance, and a group of people hurried over.The leading one wore a long linen turban popular among mercenaries, a short robe commonly worn by commoners in Thebes, a leather waist and crotch around his waist, and a long bronze sword.A gleaming lion's head is prominently adorned on his waistband.

He should be between 25 and 28 years old. He has short black hair, a short mustache under his chin, dark brown eyes, dark features and a weathered look, making him look a bit old-fashioned.

He has an obvious foreign accent when he speaks, but it is not quite the same as the mercenaries who angered Elyse just now——

The most different thing was his demeanor and deterrence. As soon as he opened his mouth, the fallen mercenaries got up from the ground tremblingly and knelt at his feet, not daring to speak.

Alicia looked at him calmly.

The visitor immediately realized the difference in her, looked around at the scattered Tao beans on the ground, and immediately understood what happened just now.

He immediately stretched out his feet and kicked the people around him one by one, and said with a sneer while kicking, "Very well, I can see that you are smart, so smart that you dare to offend the priest of God Amon."

Alixi remained calm, just quietly watching him punish her people one by one.

Her attitude is very clear: Soldiers without discipline will not have any chance of winning against the enemy.

The Thebes would not use such mercenaries.What's more, the war between her and Lower Egypt has not yet reached the point of war.

"Boss, we didn't know earlier..."

The person who spoke was immediately kicked again, and this time the person who was punished was looking for excuses everywhere to shirk responsibility.

"Lord Gilman, we dare not again."

Erich narrowed her eyes. She had indeed heard Gilman's name before, and knew that he was the leader of a large mercenary force in Upper Egypt.

The mercenaries led by him are famous in upper and lower Egypt, Hittite, Babylon and other neighboring countries for their toughness and elite.

But no one knows Gilman's own origins.Some say he came from Babylon or a city-state near Hittite.

Because he failed to fight for power with a big country, he left his homeland and became the leader of mercenaries;

Some people also said that he was a mercenary for another purpose, to listen to news and prepare for the revival of his mother country.

Thinking of this, Alixi raised her mouth, looked at Gilman, patted her hands lightly, and said, "That's amazing——"

I don't know if he was mocking Gilman's mercenaries for being bullying or fearful, or if he was making fun of Gilman's attempt to deal with the matter so lightly.

Gilman frowned. He had been invited to participate in the birthday celebration of the little princess Ou Nai earlier, witnessed the farce with his own eyes, and knew what kind of ability Elyse possessed as one of the protagonists who participated in the farce.

"The order continues. From today onwards, Gilman's mercenaries will all assemble outside the city of Thebes. They are not allowed to enter Thebes city, let alone enter the Temple of Karnak. Anyone who disobeys the order will be beheaded."

"As for you guys, go and get fifty big sticks and tell your squad leader, if one of you can stand up after the beating, I will beat him with one hundred big sticks myself."

After speaking, Gilman turned to Elyse, as if trying to judge from her eyes.Is she satisfied with the handling of these guys and the arrangement of the entire mercenary?

Unexpectedly, Gilman seemed to be facing an icy lake without any ripples.

Erich was not happy or angry, so Gilman had no way of understanding her mind, and could not make any judgments based on it.

This is a really difficult person to deal with, and he will never be easily satisfied——Gilman, who has traveled to many city-states, visited many Nomes in Upper and Lower Egypt, and met countless people, made such a judgment.

As a result, Gilman suddenly felt a strong sense of defeat-this was something he had never experienced before as a powerful mercenary leader.

Mercenaries, as the name suggests, fight everywhere accompanied by looting in all directions, just to reap benefits.

But at this moment, Gilman had a premonition that he and his mercenaries might not get any benefit in Upper Egypt.

Of course, if this is the case, Gilman can pull the team to Lower Egypt. Although the Pharaoh of Lower Egypt has a large army, he will not refuse a mercenary army who knows Upper Egypt very well.

But Gilman immediately realized that if he wanted to leave Upper Egypt, he needed to get past her first, and when he thought of this, he felt a faint chill in his heart, as if he could feel a kind of fear from his heart just by facing her , This kind of fear is saying loudly to him: Don't defy, don't defy!

Gilman, however, saw the beauty on the opposite side smiling.Then he gave him a gentle nod and gave a formal response: "Very good——"

This is an endorsement of Gilman's handling of the withdrawal of the mercenaries from Thebes and the Fifty Sticks.

"You are a man I would like to deal with."

Beauty Sakura finally spit out a sentence Gilman wanted to hear.The leader of the mercenary for many years involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and nodded to the useless guys on the ground, indicating that they can get out soon.

"I want to ask you about a few places around Upper Egypt. May I invite you to chat for a while at the nearby temple?"

Gilman never expected that the other party's request was to chat for a while, so he hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Alicia turned around, not forgetting to say to both Satyri and Kong Si: "Come with me."

Gilman immediately followed Satyri, who was tall and like a black tower, and Kong Si, a pale and thin young man, and a group of people followed behind Erich, and entered a hall in the Karnak Temple——

This is a discussion room specially set up by Elyse in the temple.She believes that the Karnak Temple is a public space that belongs to the whole of Thebes. Apart from the temple that pays tribute to the gods, there should be a space for Thebes to discuss, discuss and handle public affairs.

This kind of discussion room came into being as the times require, and it is as large as the one being discussed next door, and there are still emotional discussions coming from it.

The room that Alice came to was a small discussion room.But it is not closed, there are no walls around it, only a few large pillars support the roof, anyone who passes by here can hear the people inside talking about something.

"Thebans don't conspire."

Seeing Gilman's curious eyes, Alicia immediately explained with a smile, "Me too, I will never hide anything from the Thebes about anything I talk to you about."

This is to be different from the time when Plato was in power. The transparency of government affairs emphasized by Elyse——

To a large extent, this quickly won the favor of the Thebes, and no one would worry that they, outsiders from other parts of Egypt, would sell Thebes as soon as they turned around.

Gilman snorted, and then he saw a handsome young man with brown hair and golden eyes in a Thebes robe, entering the discussion room and sitting casually on the side——

He knew that this was Senmut, the high priest appointed by the Pharaoh of Lower Egypt himself. Instead, he turned against the Pharaoh along with the first princess of Lower Egypt, so he stayed in Upper Egypt.

Erich didn't seem surprised by Senmut's appearance, and said with a smile: "You came just in time, I almost forgot, you are also a traveler who has traveled all over the world and is very familiar with various places."

Gilman was suddenly a little disappointed: It turns out that the most powerful woman in Thebes really invited him here to consult on geographical issues?

The next moment, he held his breath——

A topographic map of Upper and Lower Egypt and surrounding neighboring countries appeared in front of him drawn with light.

Gilman has seen many maps, maps, topographic maps, and road maps, which are very important for mercenaries like them who have traveled all over the place, and he himself has a lot of collections in this regard.

Therefore, Gilman immediately recognized that this was a topographic map, and quickly saw several important cities marked on the map: Memphis, Thebes, Tanis...

But this topographic map is different from the maps usually drawn on papyrus. The mountains, rivers, and oceans on this map are all three-dimensional and real, as if someone has miniaturized those breathtaking natural scenes by seven or eight hundred times. , thousands of times, tens of thousands of times...

He was not very good at Gilman's calculations, and he didn't even know how many times the entire world was reduced to form the landscape in front of him.

How exactly is this done?

So this is the rumored mighty power from the gods?

Witnessing all of this, Gilman suddenly wondered - if someone who can vividly present all the mountains, rivers and rivers in a vast area like this means that she will also be able to control all these vast areas in the future ?

He sneaked a glance at Senmut who was sitting next to him without showing any trace, and found that the other party also opened his pale golden eyes wide, with surprise on his face, staring intently at the geography of mountains and rivers in front of him.

Satyri was also in the same situation, except that Kongsi looked calm, either because he was always soaring in the sky and was used to seeing all of these, or he couldn't understand it at all.

Ai Lixi on the opposite side saw the performance of this group of people and couldn't help feeling proud.

You know, she spent a lot of effort in order to use the law of similarity to present this large-scale and geographically accurate topographic map.
