The King and the Priest[Comprehensive]

In the former dynasty era more than 100 years ago, there was indeed a "mystery" that was completely different from today's.

At that time, the distance between gods and humans was not so far away. The priests of the temple not only could only recite mantras, but also really knew how to use spells, possessing magical abilities that ordinary people could only hope for.

The priests who mastered the mystery said that this power is a gift from the gods to the servants, and it is unique in the world.

But there are still very few people who know that although it is true that many priests have magical powers due to the gift of God, this is not absolute.

There is an even smaller group in the world. They are not priests, and they are born with power beyond the reach of mortals.

This group of people is not as good at observing astrology and divination as the priests, and their abilities are more practical.

For example, using extremely lethal spells to defeat the enemy as quickly as possible, casting a curse on a specific person in a place far away, causing them to suffer successively, or simply dying——

This group, which is completely opposite to the priest's behavior style, is called "conjurers" by those who are lucky enough to know their existence.

It may be directly related to the low-key concealment of the few conjurers, but they are all ruthless and ruthless. Their reputation is not good.

People who have heard of it are afraid of the curse that can come suddenly from thousands of miles away, and they can't help feeling afraid.

And some people, apart from being afraid, inevitably moved their minds, wanting to use the power of the magician to eradicate dissidents and satisfy their selfish desires...

In this way, once there is a phenomenon that seems to be in effect near the curse, it is easy to cause commotion.

In the early part of the Eighteenth Dynasty, there was a wise pharaoh who decisively restricted the random actions of conjurers in the sun.

Because we all know that supernatural power comes from the great sun god Ra.

The source of the magician's power is unknown, it seems to break this rule, and it may make some ignorant people mistakenly believe that they are "gods" themselves.This is absolutely intolerable to the Pharaoh and the priests of the Sun Temple.

Therefore, the special group of unknown but taboo people was suppressed. After that, they almost never appeared in the public's field of vision, and were almost forgotten by people.

After that, the term conjurer reappeared in the sun in the true sense, during the reign of a rebellious pharaoh whose name was cut off.

The pharaoh's name is Amenhote Pu.

The young pharaoh had a special idea. He had disliked the priests and monks who used the name of the Sun Temple to make money and mess up the government a long time ago.

As soon as he ascended the throne, he replaced the current Vihir and appointed someone he trusted, and also made that person the high priest of the temple—the temple here is not the Temple of the Sun.

Pharaoh insisted on going his own way, banned the belief in the sun god, and let the people of the whole country believe in the god Aten along with him.

Not only that, but he also spent a lot of time building a new capital to replace Thebes. The luxurious palaces and gorgeous temples erected in the new capital are not as decadent as the sun temple priests who are greedy for pleasure.

It's almost like being stunned.That's what the frightened people say.

The person most trusted by the Pharaoh became the high priest of the Temple of Aten and enjoyed the privilege of being under one person and under ten thousand.Sometimes even not alone, because Pharaoh obeyed him, like a madman——

Ah yes.

It was at this time that the rumor that "Lord Mayi, who is also Vihir and the high priest, is actually a conjurer" spread throughout Egypt at this time, making the already broken hearts even more panicky.

This is a rumor rather than a rumor, and it has some basis.

Mai's background was not humble, but she was not noble either.

He was originally a junior clerk working for the royal family. He took this opportunity to get in touch with Prince Amenhotep who had not yet become a pharaoh at that time, and he quickly gained the trust of the prince.

When the prince became pharaoh, Mayi's status rose even higher, and no one could stop her from becoming powerful.

The reason why no one stopped him—it wasn't that everyone didn't want to suppress the sudden appearance of the future power minister. On the contrary, there were many people who had such thoughts.

But the result is that all those who had this idea and actually did it died without exception.

Some were found to have died suddenly at home by their servants, some were found outside the city after being missing for many days until their skeletons had been eaten by wild animals, and some simply died inexplicably with their eyes crooked and their mouths slanting in the blue sky, spitting out black blood. Most of them are powerful priests...

Such weird things had happened too many times, and all the voices of opposition in the court disappeared, and it was three points quieter than the silence.

It can be said that most of the reasons why the young pharaoh was able to carry out the decision to replace the belief arbitrarily and forcefully implemented it were due to the eccentricity shown by Mai.

During that time, no one wanted to be a thorn in Pharaoh's side, let alone confront Mayi and cause a terrible "curse".

The word Atun□□ spread throughout Egypt in a mighty way. On the surface, everyone knows it, and it is extremely brilliant.

But this "brilliance" that only exists on the surface is more fragile than a bubble. Not only will it burst at the first touch, but under its bright appearance, the people's dissatisfaction will not dissipate, but will only intensify as the contradictions deepen.

The common people who have been deprived of their faith feel that the pillars of their souls have collapsed, and they live in fear of being rejected and punished by the god Ra all day long.

In order to build a temple for God Aten, almost all the labor force of the whole country was mobilized, everyone was exhausted, and countless slaves died of hard labor.

The original priests of the Sun Temple who were deprived of their rights and status would naturally not be reconciled. The priests and monks who survived by chance gathered in secret to plan how to kill the daring conjurer who had the power of evil to confuse the Pharaoh.

After a period of latent observation, someone discovered that Mayi's terrifying spell ability that no one could escape might not all come from himself, but borrowed another inhuman power.

The thing that gathered the most doubts was the scepter that Mai held in her hand and never left her body.

According to reports from the palace guards who followed the pharaoh risking their lives, when Mai came to the pharaoh's side, the seemingly normal staff occasionally changed into another meaning, that is, from white to black.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but when it turns black, you can still see a faint snake shadow from the surface of the scepter.

The most talented of the surviving priests also did divination at great risk, and determined that the problem was the disguised black staff. A group of people found an opportunity to break through the limitations, and gradually came up with a detailed plan.

The sight of Mai and Aten lasted for several years, and it seemed that there was no statue of Ra on the land of Egypt.

No matter how you look at it, this is the victory of Pharaoh—no, Lord Mayi!

Just like the lyrics written by the flattering poet: "The sun's rays are not there, and my Lord who has regained the light is the omnipresent Aten."

"It was Akhenaten with a pair of eyes who brought integrity back to Egypt. God bless Egypt, and it was the prophet Mai who spread the glory of Aten to the earth."

From a low-level scribe to a prophet admired by everyone, Mayi remained vigilant at the beginning and never relaxed easily, but as time went on, no matter how vigilant people were, they would be affected by the comfortable environment and more or less show their flaws.

At a banquet hosted by the pharaoh, Mayi attended, and without accident, she brought the scepter that never left her body.

No one knew that a priest who had planned in advance hid his identity, sneaked into the banquet disguised as an attendant, and brought fine wine to Mayi.

The wine didn't put anything that shouldn't exist, it just had a lot of stamina and was easy to get drunk.

Mayi got carried away with the flattery of the officials around her, drank several cups in a row, and got drunk as expected.

The priest who was in the crowd seized the opportunity of the scepter being released from the drunken Mai's hand, chanted a spell to let the wind blow, and blew the scepter away, and dragged it into his hand in one fell swoop.

After getting Mai's scepter, the priest's mana also increased greatly, so he used a method that others could not detect but everyone was very familiar with in the dark, and he quickly killed Vihir and the high priest who could no longer stay. kill.

The grand lord who was so glamorous died suddenly and suddenly at the banquet scene for no reason. The news of his death shocked the Pharaoh and shocked countless people who were shocked by Mayi.

Of course, in addition to surprise, what emerged in their hearts was more ecstasy after rejoicing.

No matter how sad the pharaoh himself was for his confidant who left him-the temple of Aten, forcibly cast by the oppression of death, is destined to collapse from this moment on.

There was no delay at all.

First, the ex-priests, who had been waiting for this day for a long time, broke out suddenly, enlisted the dignitaries whose interests had been touched, and put pressure on the pharaoh.Then the people became restless and protested all the time.

The society is in turmoil, and even the most basic operations cannot be maintained.

Under such terrible circumstances, Pharaoh finally deserted all relatives and died in pain.

His youngest son, Tutannaton, who was only a few years old, came to the throne, and Vihir, who was assisted by his side, happened to be the priest who took away the scepter of Mai back then.

Oh, when Tutannaton came to the throne, the priest Ayi was not only promoted to the high priest, but also got the high position of Vihir.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that a Mai and Ayi both acted as Vihir and High Priest.

All in all, the subsequent developments can be found in history books.

After Tutankhamun ascended the throne, under the guidance of Ayi, he deposed the new capital Akhnaton and re-established his belief in Amon-Ra.He changed his name to Tutankhamun, and changed from a servant of Aten to a servant of Amon.

And this little pharaoh was also young and difficult, and died of illness at a young age.He did not give birth to a son, and the throne was taken by the old minister Ayi who served by his side.

Ayi became a pharaoh, and he was in high spirits for a while.

But strange things seem to emerge from this moment.

Old Ayi, who has no royal blood, hooks up with the priests of the temple, and with the help of "God Ra's approval", he gets the chance to ascend the throne in a legitimate way.But it didn't take long before his throne was taken away by the general who also assisted Pharaoh Tutankhamun in the past through political struggle.

The battle at the end of the dynasty was ups and downs, as if there was no smooth day.

Until the last generation of pharaohs still had no heirs, Vihir Ramses I at that time was finally allowed to seize power and change the dynasty.

However, Ramses I passed away at an early age less than two years after he came to power. It is quite strange to watch it one after another.

If you insist on discovering some more weird points from these "coincidences" that seem to be just coincidences.

That is the mysterious scepter that Ayi snatched from the conjurer Mai by means of means.

Just like the names of Amenhote Pu and Mai were crossed out from the stone wall books by later generations, after the scepter that used to be inseparable from the conjurer fell into the hands of Ayi, it seemed to evaporate out of thin air Lost sense of presence.

Except perhaps Ayi himself, no one knows the whereabouts of the scepter.

Even if future generations try to restore the past, they will not be able to find the whole truth from the broken details, let alone know——

Going back a hundred years ago, the culprit of all this was not Mai, the conjurer, but a scepter that seemed to be just a tool.

The god the conjurer really believed in was not the sun god, no matter which sun god he was.The only god served by this group is the evil god Seth, and the scepter is undoubtedly the snake staff that condenses Seth's divine power.

The Snake Staff has only existed as a token since it came to the world, even a conjurer with powerful magic power would not dare to be bold enough to try to pick it up.

The only exception is Mai.

This ambitious man didn't want to expose himself as a conjurer, but he wanted to climb higher than everyone else. For this reason, he even dared to take Seth's snake staff.

The moment she touched the snake stick, Mai was controlled.

Too much of Seth's jealousy towards Osiris remained in the snake rod, and it was also mixed with countless resentments towards Horus. These thick black auras were all transformed into hatred for the descendants of Osiris and the guardian object of Horus. Evil thoughts.

It arouses Mai's ambition and expands it, making the men immersed in it pursue their own desires more unscrupulously, and causing chaos to the pharaoh and the pharaoh's dynasty.

This is not over yet.

After Mayi's death, her soul did not go to the underworld, but because of too deep obsession, she went round and round and bent over the snake stick, becoming the dominant consciousness of the snake stick.

Blessed by the evil wraith, the snake stick naturally became more treacherous, and its new owner was also corroded by evil thoughts the moment he touched it.

Losing one's heart, using conspiracy to seize the throne, stirring up greater disputes - this series of steps are all arranged, like a set of wonderful performances that perfectly realize the script.

The wraith in the snake staff especially prefers the scene where the high priest murdered the Pharaoh, from Ay to the last Ramses, all of them were staged.

The only shortcoming is that although Ramses I touched the scepter obtained from the former pharaoh as it was designed, he was not tempted, but sealed the scepter in a box and handed it to the Karnak Temple High Priest Celt suppressed.

This change made the Wraith extremely dissatisfied, which gave rise to even greater malice.

Together with the snake staff, it bewitched Celt, causing countless storms about conjurers in the newly established dynasty, and with the help of Celt, he cursed and killed Pharaoh Ramses I with cruel means!

not enough.

Wraiths have been stagnant in the human world for a long time, and the human mind is absent, and they have even become a hundred times crazy.

It can no longer be satisfied with just admiring this little hustle and bustle.

Because the pain and resentment of the dead pharaoh turned into black air and sank into the snake stick, the power of the wraith was also greatly enhanced, and he also gained the ability to see a glimmer of the future.

The "future" has only a small corner, but it is enough to arouse the unprecedented madness and jealousy of the wraith.

Just because it sees that Egypt is about to rise an unprecedentedly dazzling tomorrow.

There will be no one before and no one after, and the greatest pharaoh will be born in a few years.

When he came to this world, the darkness hiding in the dark will be driven away by the light, and there is no place in the world that is not covered by the sun's rays.

Under the shining of the sun, the country raised by the Nile will embark on a glory unknown to the predecessors and admired by the descendants.

"……hateful……"

"Hateful... Hateful!"

Resentment screamed in the snake stick, and he didn't know whether he was jealous or led by the snake stick, only that the madness went deeper.

It ignores the son of Ramses I, because the king of kings revealed in the future is the grandson of Ramses I.

During the time of anxiously waiting, the wraith, who was strong enough to leave the snake stick, attached to Celt's body, returned to the ruins of the abandoned capital Akhnaton, and continued to accumulate strength.

Counting from the moment the awaited Ramses came into the world, there were countless times when he almost died under the curse of the wraith.

——He was inexplicably weak when he was born, and it was not until he survived the infancy that he survived the infancy that he miraculously turned into a normal physique.

——His imperial brother should have died of illness very early, but for some reason, it was delayed for several years, which made him almost lose the position of heir.

——The thrilling adventures encountered on the battlefield have been many times, and each time they were close to death, but they all escaped from death at critical moments, and luckily recovered a life...

wrong.

wrong.

In Wraith's vision, it has worked so hard and painstakingly that the curse it has set is not the most effective in order to deceive people's eyes and ears, but after years and months, the final burst of effectiveness will definitely make this so-called "light of the future" To die tragically on the spot is even more tragic than the pharaohs who were teased by it in the past!

In this way, the result should stay in the first half of the sentence, and there will never be a turning point later.

But what about the real result?

Everyone saw it.

This Ramses is still alive and well, and he doesn't look like he is about to die suddenly.

The wraith was dying of anger—oh no, it was already dead—and while it was about to kill itself, at least it was persevering and found another way to vent its anger.

It will repeat the old trick and use another high priest to achieve its goal.

The lucky one who was chosen was of course Tahir who had the name of God's Favored One.

As early as more than ten years ago, the snake stick was hidden by the resentful spirit, who casually controlled an insignificant little person and let him take it away.

That little man's aptitude was far inferior to Celt's, so he was naturally not seen by the Wraith.The unintentional heart at that time can be used to make use of it now.

The wraith first picked the much-anticipated Opate Festival, and set off a storm on the festival, making the beautiful high priest notice the existence of the curse.

It led him step by step to learn about the existence of the snake rod and the conjurer from the little people who knew very few details.

He was also induced to discover the weirdness of the Akhenaten ruins, and the inevitable condition that "only by getting the snake staff can the enchantment outside the ruins be opened".

Only by entering the enchantment and finding the wraith, can the possibility of endangering the life of the future pharaoh be completely eliminated.

Only by getting the Snake Staff can one enter the enchantment.

Therefore, there is only one option that is not optional, and the result is also:

As long as you encounter evil thoughts that are already far superior to the snake stick in the past, even gods will be affected, let alone mortals in the flesh.

After that, the high priest controlled by the snake rod will bring the future pharaoh who knows nothing about the conspiracy into the enchantment and become the next body of the wraith.

That's right, after seeing the future, the wraith has completely different desires from before.

It wants to let itself stand in the sun with justification and integrity.

It wants to let itself be the sun that shines on Egypt!

If it is said that the conspiracy described in this way is extremely perfect, even the high priest's arrogant character of never asking others for help has been taken into consideration, blocking all other escape routes.

But Wraith Ling firmly believes that he will never fail, and there is another card.

If——just for the sake of invulnerability, then the high priest is really strong enough, has not been brainwashed by the snake stick, and has the heart to destroy it, he must face the last challenge that must be defeated.

If you want to destroy the Wraith, you must destroy the idol it changes.

That is the statue of God Ra, supplemented by the changing blessing of the closest god, as long as a devout believer of the god sees it, it is impossible to give birth to a half-blasphemy heart.

One ring after another, there is no more vicious conspiracy.

Wraith himself also feels that it is perfect, all factors have been considered thoroughly, and it is impossible for another accident to happen.

……

--so.

——Why?

The resentful spirits who have been lingering in the world for a hundred years can't figure out why this perfect plan failed.

The superficial reason was all on the priest who broke the statue without hesitation.

Is he really the High Priest of the Temple of Amun?

He was not tempted by the snake staff at all?

His faith is really pure?

All.

All unexplainable.

And it is also doomed to have no answer.

—Hateful Prince, Hateful High Priest.
