In the camp of the border army, the groom Arno is taking good care of the horses.

In the feed trough of the war horse, in addition to the forage that had been cut into sections in advance, there were beans carefully selected by Arnold, and they were carefully mixed with the forage.

The number of war horses in the frontier army was not too many, but each of them was well-fed and strong by Arnold, and their fur was smooth and smooth. Everyone praised the horses when they saw them.

It's just that there is not enough food and grass in the army, and the supply of beans is not enough. In the current food trough, only a small handful of beans are sprinkled, sparsely, and after mixing well, they all disappear into the forage, and they can't be seen.

After finishing all the work, Arnold clapped his hands and sat behind a section of carriage used to pull hay, contentedly watching his horses poke their heads into the trough to eat.

A fire was burning not far behind him, and a group of Border Army soldiers were gathering to chat casually.

"Pharaoh is also true. If the Numidians do not invade, they will not think of our border army."

"The western border is tight, so I think of us. Baba transferred the border army from the easternmost to the westernmost—"

"Uh……"

"If the Hittites also attack at the same time, will our frontier army have to rush back to Mahalla again?"

Arnold's most obvious feeling is that since the return of the general, the soldiers of the frontier army have dared to speak up.

During the period when the general was away, there was a chill in the frontier army, and no one dared to complain.

It seems that everyone knows that they are the losers in the power struggle, so they can only keep their tails between their legs and behave honestly.

On the contrary, as soon as the general came back, all the complaints that had been suppressed for more than half a year were all released.

"that is--"

"Before there was no war, our border army was nothing. Now that foreign enemies have invaded, let us go to the battlefield and face the Numidian elephant...Why?"

Arnold could hear it fascinated: In recent days, there have been many rumors about the Numidians among the frontier army, saying that they can drive elephants to fight. The long teeth of four or five cubits long, and the four huge feet are like the thick giant pillars in the temple. If you step on it, your opponent will become a meatloaf even if it is not a slime.

This group of frontier soldiers were sent to fight against the monsters. Everyone felt that the danger was bad, so their morale was definitely not high.

"Guys, let's talk to the general."

Suddenly someone shouted loudly beside the fire.

"Anyway, we have to fight the elephant soldiers when we go west. We are close to death, and the pharaoh treats us like this. Why don't we...don't go west at all. Let's go to Memphis, and we will go directly to argue with the pharaoh!"

Go argue with Pharaoh...

Arnold thought to himself: In fact, it’s not that there is no theory, but this result...

Thinking of this, he shuddered all over, and was recalled the memory of when he was in front of the Great Pyramid, his body was completely controlled and he couldn't move.

He had discussed this matter with many of his comrades in private, and most of them believed that it was just the frontier army collectively bewitched by evil spirits.

But Arnold clearly remembered that they were uncontrollably fighting against a group of militiamen armed with chisels and hammers.

During this bitter battle, the pharaoh and the general stood at the top of the pyramid and watched the battle between the two sides.

Before that, the entire frontier army was spreading rumors that Pharaoh had already been controlled by the frontier army.But after that, the general was also forced to surrender his command and returned to Memphis alone.

That bewitching match should have been the turning point from victory to defeat.

Although Arnold is just a lowly groom in the army, he has more opportunities to work than to fight the enemy.

But it also gave him a detached perspective to a certain extent, and he was able to put aside himself and look at the problem from a holistic perspective.

"Bullshit!"

A clear voice sounded.

All the soldiers by the fire immediately stood up.

Arnold, too, bounced off the ground in an instant.

Solan has this kind of magical power, and he never uses any special means.But it is to make the most arrogant soldiers in this frontier army bow their heads and obey his orders obediently.

Arnold thought to himself: It may be because this crazy general always takes the lead and always rushes to the forefront of ordinary soldiers.

If he is not a groom, but a little leader who can rush to the battlefield, he will definitely follow Solan closely, and he will fight wherever Solan points...

"Even if Alfred mistreated you, the common people in Nome to the west have never treated you badly."

Soran's handsome face was tense.

"In the past few years, you have been stationed in Mahalla. The food, clothing, and horses you drive are all supported by ordinary people from various Nomes."

"Now they are suffering, their homes are trampled on, men are killed, women and children are taken away, and the fields are barren and obliterated by the endless yellow sand...The territory of Egypt has since become a land trampled by evil gods. You Who can calm down and sit back and watch this scene?"

"Whoever can do it, stand up for me now!"

Solan raised his breath and let out a loud shout.

Of course no one can stand up.

Since the soldiers of the Border Army joined this team, they have been instilled with their mission countless times: to defend their homeland and protect the people on this land.

Arnold was convinced in his heart, he felt that everything Solan said was correct——

These people are the military guarantee for the Egyptian civilians to save money and provide food.At this time, they need to stand up and defend, how can they have the right to back down.

"I don't know which god you believe in..." Solan continued, "The god I believe in, his mission is to protect life and order. He used to be at my lowest and most disappointed, Give me the most important hope and courage."

As soon as Arnold heard about the protection of life and order, his ears immediately perked up.

He quietly squeezed into the growing crowd, and cast his eager eyes on Solan surrounded by soldiers.

"Therefore, I have reason to believe that as long as our actions are based on the maintenance of justice, the gods who watch all will never sit idly by."

"We will receive guidance and gifts from the gods of Egypt, which is completely incomparable to the Numidians who worship evil gods."

Solan's words immediately resonated with many soldiers.They no longer felt fear and panic about the Numidians they hadn't actually seen yet, and their hearts were instantly filled with courage. This trip to the west will become their chance to prove themselves——

Their brave frontier army may not necessarily be loyal to Pharaoh Delos.

To a certain extent, they are loyal to themselves, to their own future and life, not only to keep their lives on the dangerous battlefield, but also to climb up and get promoted.

At the same time, they are both true to their beliefs.

This gives their self-absorption all meaning.

"That's it!"

"With the blessing of the great sun god Ra, we will be invincible and invincible!"

"Long live Egypt!"

"Long live Ra God!"

Neither Solan nor Arnold made a sound for a while.

A Nuo is a follower of God Amon. As Asut, he must be loyal to his beliefs and will never casually shout the title of another god.

So did Solan.

But Solan was stunned and realized that the border army under his command, most of the soldiers, and the main god they believed in were the legendary sun god Ra who brought light to this world.

In fact, most people in Lower Egypt are like this. They will pray to various gods for specific affairs. When they are sick, they will worship the goddess Sekhmet. When it does not rain, they will pray to Tef Goddess Nut, harvest festival to Osiris, newborn to Hathor...

But in their hearts, only the sun god Ra represents justice and light and always opposes darkness and evil.

Solan originally wanted to promote the idea of ​​God Amon to his border army.

Unexpectedly, these words aroused people's fanatical worship of Ra God.

The muscles on both sides of Solan's cheeks twitched slightly, but if people hadn't stared at him, they wouldn't have guessed that the mad general stuck out his tongue secretly just now.

The voices expressing respect and loyalty to the God of Ra came one after another. Standing in the crowd, Solan and Anuo, one in the light, one in the dark, one in a high position, one needs to look up to others, but at the same time feel a lot of pressure in their hearts.

In front of Erich, the Sphinx lowered his head like a docile big cat.

"Since this is the case, I think you have initially possessed the ability to compete with the Sun God, and you deserve the courtesy of my Sphinx."

"You wanted Pharaoh to come here to meet you?"

Alicia rolled her eyes and asked such a sentence.

"Yes……"

Sphinx said honestly.

Ellie hoped to see the endless camps of civilians in the distance behind her.Pharaoh's huge king's tent was mixed in, standing out from the crowd like chickens, and it was particularly conspicuous.

"But your pharaoh didn't show up."

There was a little mocking and ridicule in Alicia's tone.

But she was wary in her heart.

The identity of the Sphinx is likely to be the ancient pharaoh, and there is a hidden connection between Tilos and him.

Now even she can perceive the signal sent by the Sphinx... Not only that, but even her favored one, Jangalai, can perceive it.

Pharaoh could not.

Then the Pharaoh probably had a problem too.

Reminiscent of the pharaoh Delos hanging out with the great priest Dahor all day long, and then thinking of the experience of the great priest's wife, Erich felt that this guess was likely to be true.

The Sphinx drooped its head momentarily.

After a while, the guy raised his head and asked, "Can you... stop letting them dig and build like this."

Alicia laughed in her heart: This Sphinx has stood by the Great Pyramid for at least 1000 years, and now it can't stand a younger generation building its own tomb?

Immediately she realized something was wrong, and asked in a deep voice, "You can fly, right?"

She remembered seeing many sphinx patterns with wings in books before she wore them.

But the sphinx, which has stood in front of the pyramid for thousands of years, has gone through weather and frost, and there are no traces of the existence of its wings.

Sphinx shook his head when he heard the words, and asked Erich back with surprise: "What do you want to do?"

Alixi spread her hands and said, "If you want me to help you, let me see the overall situation and understand the overall situation."

"Just don't help."

Alicia didn't give the Sphinx any time to hesitate, and turned around and left.

"I really got you."

There was a depressed snort from the Sphinx behind him.

Alicia immediately felt the air flow behind her.

When she turned her head, she saw a pair of huge wings on the back of the Sphinx, flapping in the night.

Ailixi held back her smile, turned around and came to the Sphinx, said solemnly: "Thank you." Then she jumped up and came to the Sphinx's back.

After all, there was a great possibility that this person was a pharaoh from the past, and she did not dare to show any contempt - multiple allies are better than multiple enemies.

"Hurry up!"

The Sphinx gave a low grunt, as if reminding Erich to buckle up.

Immediately, it flapped its wings and took advantage of the night to slide high into the sky, reaching the height completely level with the body of the Great Pyramid in an instant.

Alicia turned her head sideways, looking down at the continuous civilian camps beside the Great Pyramid, and several construction sites that were obviously rushing to work overnight.

She looked at it for a moment, patted the Sphinx on the neck, and said, "A little higher."

The Sphinx muttered a few more words for a moment, not knowing what to complain about.But it seemed that he didn't dare to disobey Ailixi's meaning.Immediately, the wings fluttered, and flew to a high place in the quiet night.

"Okay—"

Elysee has reached a height where she can command the whole situation, looking down at the ground.

At this moment, a pocket of bright blue has appeared in the eastern sky, and the sky light begins to dispel the night.

The large and small buildings built by successive pharaohs, old and new, gradually emerged from the thick darkness of the ground, allowing Erich to have a panoramic view.

Alicia's eyes jumped suddenly.

In her eyes, the pharaoh's new above-ground buildings.Although the size is not big enough, it is far inferior to the Great Pyramid next to it.

But with their existence, it seems that several magnificent buildings left over from ancient times have been connected into a rather special shape.

Just as this thought came into her mind, the body of the Sphinx suddenly vibrated under her feet, and her wings stopped waving.

Immediately afterwards, like an angel with broken wings, it took Erich on its back and plunged towards the ground of Giza.
