From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

"Don't be discouraged!"

Alicia encouraged everyone.

"Just now in the quicksand zone, we have already delineated the scope of the dune movement. The tree of life in your country is pointing to the east, and everyone has seen it. Even if the tree of life is gone now, it does not mean that this attempt cannot be successful... ..."

This persuasion could not appease Karsha's depression for a while.

Prince Hittite shrugged his shoulders and said, "The sacred tree presented to the hero Gilgamesh by the goddess Ishtar..."

Alixi immediately added: "What's the matter?"

"When this operation is over, I will give you another similar item that can guide the direction."

Erich didn't forget to ask Biola to testify for her: "Miss Biola, do you think it is an item that can be used to guide the direction in the wilderness without the sun or stars... It's easy, isn't it?"

Viola kept pinching her nose, and in order to answer Erich's answer, she quickly let go of her hand, nodded, and said, "An item that guides the direction, a magnet, ah compass... um, it's really easy. "

As soon as Karsha heard that the special item he lost could be compensated, he immediately put the loss behind him, and said to Erich with a smile: "That's great... By the way, I would like to thank you and you again. Lord Sunmut, save Dartley."

Alixi didn't say anything more, but only said: "Be careful."

Karsha didn't need her to remind again, the woolen blanket under her seat soared into the air, and she didn't dare to approach the ground any more.

When Dartley woke up from a coma when he was a child, Senmut kept him by his side for a while.

A group of people continued to walk in the direction pointed by the tree of life just now.But this time, Karsha's woolen blanket dared not fly in front of Erich and the others.

Erich was also polite, and step by step, she continued to manifest fully transparent glass panels in the air, allowing them to cross the entire grey-green terrifying land boundary, and came to a seemingly normal sand dune.

"careful!"

Alicia had already heard the change, she sounded a reminder, and made a reminder gesture to Karl Xiabi who was following behind.

In the shadows on the back side of the dune, a jackal's head poked out quietly.

This looked like a young jackal, with a pair of pointed ears drooping softly, and moist, black and bright eyes that moved around nimbly.

It poked its head out cautiously, raised its head, and looked curiously at Elyse and her party and the fleece blanket that was flying up and down beside them.

Viola couldn't resist the temptation brought by the cute cubs.Although her eyes were covered with a blindfold, she still squatted down on the transparent glass plate, and through the transparent support, she looked curiously at the juvenile jackal.

Ai Lixi reminded again: "Be careful——"

Before she finished speaking, she heard a loud bang——

The size of the cub suddenly became huge, and it was the one that pushed up just now, and its long wolf snout hit the glass plate under Biola's feet.

For a moment, Viola jumped up in fright.

And with a slight clicking sound, thin branch-like cracks appeared on the transparent glass plate under her feet, spreading in all directions.

Who would have expected that this cub could become bigger or smaller at any time. Although it looks cute, it only takes a moment to launch a powerful attack on Alixie and the others.

Viola was blindfolded, her face full of horror and panic, she probably thought that she had attracted the attack of this cub and brought danger to the people around her.

"nothing……"

Alicia took another small step upwards gently.

Senmuth next to her is almost completely in sync with her.

Immediately, boundless transparent supports spread out under the two people's feet, quickly replacing the cracked fully transparent glass plates.

Biola stood on the flawless support and barrier, the horror on her face hadn't completely receded, and the smile had already appeared from the dimples on her cheeks.

"This is a monster named Humbaba. Look at its appearance just now, isn't it weak, pitiful, and cute?"

Viola nodded desperately, thinking that the monster did indeed appear as a cute creature.

"But you look at it now?"

Biola watched according to her words, and saw that the monster Humbaba had long since lost its cute appearance as a jackal cub.

Its body has become big and round, at least a hundred times bigger than when it first appeared.

On its chest grew a V-shaped white animal fur that only brown bears have on the chest, and two pairs of eyes grew on the jackal's head. The six big eyes stared closely at Karsha's woolen blanket flying back and forth in the air, ready to stop at any time. Stretched out a fat giant palm anywhere, and slapped it.

Facing Humbaba's giant palm, Karsha's wool blanket, which was only five or six cubits square, was like a small bug flying up and down in the air.

Every time Biola saw Humbaba stretching out her hand, her heart would hang in her throat.

However, Alixi was always calm and composed, as if she was sure that Karsha and his remaining two attendants would not be slapped by the monster Humbaba.

She put her palm lightly on Viola's shoulder, and said softly to the blond girl, "According to Hittite legends, this monster Humbaba represents... desire."

This thing looks harmless at first, but once it expands, it becomes so terrifying.

"Desire..." Biola repeated, seeing the huge and flexible body, the powerful giant palms, and the seemingly endless attacks again and again, she couldn't help feeling sincerely: "It's really terrifying! "

Alicia shook her head: "No—"

"Every one of us has a desire: you want to go home. And I, want to govern Egypt well, and the Lord Senmut beside us..."

When Alixie said this, her voice suddenly became hoarse, her eyes met Senmut's, and they turned back immediately.

"Only uncontrolled desire is really scary."

Alicia has the answer.Biola immediately hummed, indicating that she agreed.

"Alice..."

Suddenly, Karsha's bluffing cry for help came from the wool blanket.

"You woman, you can't just keep watching, can you?"

"I warned you."

At this moment, Alixi seemed to have a plan in mind, raised the corner of her mouth, and raised her voice to remind Karsha loudly.

"Does it really have to be like this?"

Karsha's voice sounded very sad.

"I don't want gold to trap wolves... Well, I don't want gold to trap Humbaba!"

There was encouragement in Erich's voice, persuading Karl Sha to take action as soon as possible.

"All right--"

The wool blanket over there replied helplessly.

Immediately, Karsha gave instructions to the attendants in the language of the Hittites.

Suddenly, a large piece of glittering gold was thrown from the wool blanket.

The bright golden light immediately caught Humbaba's sight.

The animal that had turned into a monster jumped forward, hugged the object, and began to chew loudly.

Strange to say, as the sound of chewing resounded throughout the area, Humbaba's thick body began to shrink gradually, and seemed to be gradually recovering its previous cute appearance.

But this situation didn't last long. For a while, Humbaba ate up the golden object that Karsha threw out, and suddenly raised his head again, stretched out his giant claws at Karsha's wool blanket, and kept yelling. Whooping sound.

"What? Want more?"

Karsha, who always liked to show off his wealth, complained again and again.

But thinking about the sentence that Humbaba couldn't bear the gold, Karsha made another move, and with a clatter, another heavy gold object was thrown out.

This time, the goldware provided by Kalsha was a huge gold ring, which didn't even look like a gold ornament worn by a person, but an item that adorned the statues of the gods in the temple.

The size of this golden ring is big enough, it immediately satisfies Humbaba's appetite, making it hug the golden ring happily, and chew on it.

Its size shrunk really quickly, and it returned to the appearance of a small jackal. Holding the remaining half of the gold ring, it hiccupped.

From now on, the monster Humbaba no longer poses a threat to Alicia and the others in a short period of time.

This is the information that Ailixi inquired from the grandfather of Shushen Priest.

Alixi met Karsha the night before, and after roughly discussing the action plan with him, she immediately visited Priest Shushen and asked him about all the news about the Cosmic Egg.Among them, of course, is Humbaba, the monster guarding the primordial miracle.

That's how she learned: Humbaba is a symbol of desire.

And the true face of this strange beast is actually: the swallowing gold beast.

When no one approaches, Humbaba appears to be just a jackal cub.Once anyone approaches, it will turn into a ravenous beast, attacking wantonly until its wish is fulfilled.

Therefore, Aili Xi came to the conclusion that once the gold swallowing beast Humbaba was temporarily satisfied, they could pass through the area guarded by the monsters and approach the Stone of Time.

"That doesn't sound like an aboveboard act..."

Karsha was still muttering and complaining.

"Is it...buying a ticket? Buying a ticket to visit the Stone of Time?" Erich asked back.

As soon as Biola heard it, she immediately felt that Alicia was a little more friendly, as if she was a familiar sister next door.

As for why Ailixi knew so much, Viola didn't have any doubts - she was a demigod who could represent Amon.

The gods are omniscient, and people who know that future generations need to buy tickets to visit the ruins in Egypt, it should be... quite normal.

Over there, Alicia and Senmut walked again at the same time, and Kalsha drove the woolen blanket, far away from the belching Humbaba in a big circle, and followed Alixi.

The seven members of the expedition team gathered together again, and their destination was in front of them.

After passing through the desert with quicksand traps, the weird swamp with foul-smelling bubbles, and the gold-swallowing beast Humbaba guarding one side, they were finally very close to the target, and they could even see it directly.

right there...

that's it--

cosmic egg...

The Time Stone...

Containing the secret of time, this great treasure that once brought order to the whole world has finally appeared in front of people.

But Karsha let out a somewhat inappropriate curious question while people were watching silently:

"what is that?"

Alicia also noticed the item next to the Stone of Time the moment he spoke.

It was an hourglass, consisting of two tapered glass vessels, the upper and lower.In the vessel on the upper level, sand grains filled about two-thirds of the space, and the grains of sand were pouring into the lower level at a constant speed through a narrow connection.

In theory, it shouldn't have appeared in this day and age.
