Chapter 1094 1092. The Contract of the Gods has been submitted, please wait patiently for the administrator's review - additional update [1415]
(Added update for the "Old Luther blues" brothers [4/5])
"What? What do you think the big guys got for us? 20 power armors!?"
Towards evening, Brother Mew Miao, who had just finished a feast in the "Food Street" of King Ptolemaic City and was still picking his teeth leisurely after returning from the meal, received the latest news from Brother Bang.
The red knight's first reaction was to draw his weapon, looked around, and said warily:
"So, the big guys actually robbed the Songhai people, right? Soon the Pharaoh's guards will rush out to kill us? Ha, I know, some bullshit birthday celebration or some damn banquet, Mr. Murphy will attend it How could the plot be passed so easily and happily?
Although the actions of the big guys were a bit reckless, for the sake of the super rewards of 20 sets of power armor, we did this order!
Do you need to gather your brothers to protect the big guys and fight them out?
no problem!
I’m going to shake people up right now.”
"Your wonderful brain circuit makes it difficult for me to determine whether you are deliberately manipulating the effect of the show."
Brother Bang curled his lips, explained the cause and effect, and finally commented with a sigh on his face:
"We worked hard to fight off the black disaster and relied on Mr. Murphy's genius to get a damaged power armor. We had to repair it ourselves before it could be used. But the big guys came over and just held a technology sharing seminar casually. , with just a few words, 20 units of the current version of extreme force were offered by the Songhai people with both hands.
Case solved!
Sure enough, the mechanic is the answer.
And the reason why I tell you this is because Lao Qin just came to see me, and he wants to select a driver for the power armor as soon as possible."
"Ha! What's so challenging about this?"
Brother Meow Meow patted his chest and said:
"Wouldn't it be enough to just let each of the top 20 players in the rankings receive one?"
"If it is a power armor blessed by a genuine program, there is no problem in choosing this way, but the problem now is that the gadgets we have on hand all use pirated control programs written at home, do you understand?"
Brother Bang sighed rather painfully and said:
"The black technology of the mental perception framework alone cannot be obtained now. This means that operating power armor requires a certain mechanical engineering background. Many AI-assisted functions in the past cannot be activated now.
If you ask a group of people who only know how to play with knives, there is a high probability that they will not even be able to start it.
I just tried it.
The startup process is too complicated, and there are too many data to be observed when controlling the operation, which is difficult for ordinary people to handle. "
"So?"
Just hearing this description, Brother Miao Miao knew that there was a high probability that he would not be able to play with power armor. He was suddenly disappointed and asked again:
"Then who can drive a strong tree to stand on the earth? Let me guess, Brother Zhongzhong and his group can definitely do it?"
"Um."
Brother Bang nodded and said:
“The Loyalty Praise Guild can select ten people, and the remaining ten people have to be recruited from among the players.
I have notified the ace crew of Hell Tiger, Rat Fatty and Steel Leopard to come to the origin as soon as possible. The three of them are armored soldiers. In reality, they also have special vehicle driving licenses. There is also a pink pear who is also an experienced driver. .
The remaining people will have to be selected by each guild president, so be quick!
Get people together as soon as possible to accept the selection. The big guys said that these 20 power armors are just the beginning. As their cooperation with the Songhai people deepens, there will be new ones once they start repairing the damaged power armors for the Pharaoh. The armor is in place.
They all made an agreement with the Songhai people.
For every six units we help them repair, we will get one unit as intellectual property royalties.
Therefore, we are not short of power armor now, but now we are short of people! "
"Hey, let me tell you, why are you going to all this trouble?"
Brother Miao Miao tilted his head and thought for a while, then suggested to Brother Bang:
"Ordinary players don't have the professional skills to drive this kind of thing. Why don't you just let Mr. Qin select the armored soldier king from the active soldiers to drive it? We can get it right in one step.
I know what you're thinking, but since more exciting stuff will be released in the future, ordinary players don't have to worry at all. After these big guys come up with a set of 'Power Armor Driving Manual', we won't be able to do it anymore. Late.
And as far as I know, several guilds, including our Big Bird Group, have ordered "secondary power armor" from the Mechanicus Church. That kind of thing is obviously more in line with the players' knowledge and operation level.
Finally, and most importantly, how is this ownership right calculated?
Does it belong to us if you give it?
Or does the ownership right belong to Mr. Murphy, and we only have the right to rent it? "
"I haven't thought about this yet."
Brother Bang looked at Brother Mingmiao and said:
"What do you think?"
"My suggestion is, use the second one."
Brother Miao Miao had obviously considered this issue, and without hesitation, he said directly:
"Ordinary players can't afford the maintenance fee even if they get the power armor. If they knew the shady price Mr. Murphy was using to sell standard energy batteries, they would probably reject such a cool thing.
That thing is much more exciting than a mortgage or car loan.
There is no way, who doesn’t want cool things, but no matter how thin the wallet is, there is nothing we can do. We can still leave it to the NPCs for daily maintenance. We can just rent it when needed.
Besides, we can't guarantee whether this thing will be snatched away by a dusk dog thief if it falls into our hands.
It is better to keep this kind of heavy war equipment in a unified place. "
"Yes, that makes sense. I will discuss it with Mr. Qin."
Bang Ge nodded and said:
"But the guilds cannot stop recruiting reserve pilots!
I think the development team is planning to put the power armor into the plot as an experience unit in this DLC. If this trend continues, when the next DLC really comes, the power armor will not be a rare thing.
Without enough pilots, there is no way to exert the combat effectiveness of this thing.
And once the big guys get the Sun Ship, Brother Zhongcheng and his group will have to stay on the Sun Ship as maintenance and technology officers, and then a lot of places will be vacant.
So, I think Transia's 'ODST' troops should be formed now. The configuration of power armor + Sun Ship is very suitable for rapid response and thunder strikes.
This will be the newest and most exaggerated 'War Hammer' in the hands of Lord Murphy, and we are the sharpest knife. "
"Chao! This force breakthrough is really rapid. Yesterday, I was still playing with the sword, and today I am airborne on the track. This DLC really gave us a big job, so exciting. "
Brother Wu Miao rubbed his hands and praised repeatedly, and ran to share this good news with his brothers, and Qin Ye posted "Power Armor is unsalable! Please help us" became the hottest post on the forum today after it was posted.
After seeing the "seller show" picture of ten majestic and solemn power armors lined up in a row in the post, the whole forum was boiling.
Those with connections signed up immediately, but unfortunately 99% were rejected.
The rigid requirements of "a master's degree or above in mechanical majors", "technician-level benchwork qualification certificate", "pilot license" or "special vehicle driver's license" were enough to disappoint most players, but Yan Sang of the Big Bird Group was very surprised.
Because he happened to be a pilot! Although he has been training students to fly pesticide-spraying planes in recent years, he has not yet given up his old skills in flying civil aviation.
This old man never thought that he would be able to join the Hell's Vanguard and drive a power armor in his lifetime.
Damn, it will bring honor to his family.
——
While the players were selecting the first "ace pilot", in the high-rise area of Palace Mountain, the Pharaoh used it to receive foreign In the "Imperial Palace of Scenery" in Bin, tonight's welcome dinner is being held as scheduled.
When Murphy, Tracy and Adele entered the hall, they saw the famous desert dance of the Songhai Empire being performed in the magnificent and desert-style venue in front of them.
Dance is a form of entertainment everywhere, but the desert dance of the Songhai people is obviously unique, not only because of its exaggerated and gorgeous performance style with a heavy sense of history, but also because these charming dancers dancing in front of the distinguished guests are not human.
Well, literally.
These are "mummy dancers" or "mummy brides" from the Church of the Dead Moon.
A kind of upper-level undead, although called a mummy, these undead are not covered with rune cloth like the little mummy, but appear in the posture of a normal woman, but their skin has a strange blue-white color in addition to the blue.
However, their dancing posture is not stiff at all, but because of the undead, they can make many wonderful postures that living people cannot make.
"Enjoy it well. "
Tracey took a glass of wine from the waiter next to her and said to Murphy and Adele beside her:
"These desert dancers usually stay in the underworld to perform for the kings of the underworld. If it is not a distinguished guest or a major festival, even the nobles of the Songhai people rarely see such a large-scale performance, but you'd better not harass these mummy dancers.
The status of the desert dancers in the sequence of assassins in the underworld is at the top, and they are the "shadow hands" that every pharaoh of the underworld wants.
Each of these dancers has the combat power of a senior silver, and the six leading dancers are real golden dead spirits. Their skilled and ruthless desert assassin style, as well as the weird dead spirit magic, are enough to punish those who do not follow the rules.
This section should be playing the chapter of the "Mamluk Rebellion" in history, and maybe we can see the most authentic underworld war dance in a while.
That is a real audio-visual feast. "
"The underworld war dance? The kind that Nefertari danced outside the city of Xike before? "
Murphy asked curiously. The well-informed Trish curled her lips and said:
"The dancing of that little girl is just amateur level, not as good as those professional dancers, but I heard that her grandmother is the most famous socialite in the underworld and the most outstanding mummy dancer in history.
I just don't know if I will have the chance to see her this time."
"I remember that you seem to be able to dance this way."
Murphy whispered:
"You even did it for me before."
"Shut up!"
Trish snorted, glared at Murphy who was talking without restraint, and then walked towards the wolf girl with a glass of wine. King Louis's two wives were also there. Princess Chuchut and Princess Fulier were also members of this "Ladies' Salon".
"Does the master like to watch this kind of dance?"
Adele said:
"I can learn it too."
"Well, of course, it's not necessarily a bad thing to learn more skills. "
Murphy smiled and raised his glass to greet the Lord and Prince Bai who were enjoying the singing and dancing in front of him, and then took Adele to appreciate the palace decorated with various Songhai cultural relics.
He is very interested in the origin of Songhai people's civilization and plans to use these cultural relics to explore the past.
Don’t forget, Murphy also has a secondary career as a “prehistoric historian.”
But before the vampire governor could take a closer look at the cultural relics said to be from the Golden Age, he saw Prince Khufu hurriedly approaching.
"You are so tired. Did you just come back from the front line?"
Murphy asked:
"I heard from Princess Fulier that since you returned to the empire, you have been guarding the front line of the Abyss of Resentment with the Sand Sea Guards? How is the battle situation there?"
"That is my duty, Mr. Murphy."
His Highness Khufu is indeed a little tired. Compared with his previous demeanor, he can see a trace of unconcealable fatigue now. He rubbed his shoulders and whispered:
"The seal is generally stable. The five core battle groups of the Dead Moon Church are all there. Although some dead people have moved around the Abyss of Resentment, the core seal is still intact. Mainly because the Origin Pioneer needs to bear the responsibility of holding down the formation. , so don’t move lightly.
But with General Bhopal sitting there, there was no big problem for me to leave temporarily.
Let’s not talk about this anymore.
Please follow me!
Your father is waiting for you under the Great Pyramid of Issus. "
"Um?"
Upon hearing the invitation, Murphy blinked immediately.
As sharp as he was, he had roughly guessed the reason for Pharaoh's invitation tonight, so he did not refuse. He put the wine glass in his hand on the table and followed Prince Khufu down a secret passage to leave the bustling Imperial Scenery Hall. Murphy was still a little regretful at that time.
The music behind him was changing, and it was obvious that the "Mummy Song and Dance Troupe" was about to perform the legendary Hades War Dance. Unfortunately, he seemed to be unlucky today.
But business matters.
He followed Khufu to the top of the palace mountain. The big golden statue of Issus stood on the top of the mountain in the dark night. It exuded a golden stream of light and was like a lamp that could not be ignored in the night. Its location is the highest point in the entire Issus Delta.
In other words, no matter where you are in this area, you can see this pyramid.
It is indeed an imperial wonder and a true regional landmark building.
In the past, heavily armed Shahai guards would patrol around this pyramid that symbolized the Songhai civilization, and no one was allowed to approach it at will.
But those sentries were removed tonight, apparently because the Pharaoh did not want what happened here today to be known to a fourth person besides him, his children, and Murphy.
Just under the golden pyramid, Thutmnes II, wearing the ceremonial robes of the Pharaoh, was standing there, looking up at this historical stone monument shaped by his ancestors generation after generation. The life of each pharaoh is engraved on the foundation stone of the Great Pyramid. The life of Emperor Shahai, whose average reign was about 70-100 years, is only summarized in a short summary of more than 200 words.
Victories that are not particularly outstanding or humiliations that must be remembered will not be recorded on these cornerstones, and the merits and demerits of the previous Pharaoh will be engraved by the next Pharaoh's hand when he ascends the throne.
This is an inheritance and a heavy responsibility.
Thutmnes II would occasionally think about it. When his son Khufu ascended the throne, how would he evaluate his father on the cornerstone that belonged to him?
But tonight, the Pharaoh's mind did not extend to the realm of posthumous matters.
He knows that the most valuable thing in his rule is about to be completed by himself, and if everything goes well, his records and inscriptions on the Great Pyramid of Issus will surely surpass those of his ancestors, even ten thousand years later His name will also appear in its history.
There could not be a more perfect ending for an emperor.
But on the other hand, if you fail, your name will be recorded in history ten thousand years later in another form, which confirms that sentence.
There are only two endings for a big man, either to be famous for eternity or to be infamous for eternity.
"You're here."
The sound of footsteps behind him woke the Pharaoh from his thoughts.
He reached out and touched the blank foundation stone in front of him, then turned around and looked at Murphy with a smile.
Emperor Songhai, who was in his prime, did not waste time on greetings. Instead, he strode forward and took over the contract from Khufu that had been handed over by Murphy.
He unfolded the contract, but there was no signature on it.
Under Murphy's gaze, the Pharaoh took out a delicate and simple knife and slit his finger, looked at Murphy again, and solemnly wrote his name on the contract:
"The eleventh pharaoh of the Songhai Empire, a descendant of Ptolemy from the Thirty-three Pilgrim Family, Tutmons II."
"The inheritance of the Pharaoh rotates among the thirty-three families. When a certain family becomes extinct or an unexpected situation occurs, it will be transferred to the inheritance of another family."
Pharaoh explained:
"Therefore, my signature alone does not represent the Songhai Empire's oath. Next, during your journey to the Holy Land of Origin, my son Khufu will hold this 'covenant' and obtain thirty-two of the different pilgrim families. signature."
"Thirty-two copies?"
Murphy glanced at Pharaoh in surprise, and the latter explained in a low voice:
"More than three hundred years ago, the rebellion launched by the Mamluk family almost dragged the entire empire into a dispute that ruined the country's destiny. Therefore, after the 'Death Moon Rebellion', that family was expelled by the pilgrims."
"Well, that's it."
Murphy nodded, he looked at the Pharaoh, then looked at the Great Pyramid of Issus in front of him, and said:
"There is still some time before you go to the banquet, so why don't you tell me about the history of the Golden Age and before the Golden Age that the Songhai people have recorded so far. Although the facts have proved that the Songhai people are not a group created by the Creator, I have a feeling that the relationship between you and the Creator is indeed very close.
Although it is not presented in the way you want.
I am very interested in this."
