Chapter 1095 1093 King's Feast Extra Update for Brother "Old Luther Blues" [1515]
Chapter 1095 1093. The King’s Feast - Additional update for the “Old Luther blues” brothers [1515]
Murphy is asking too far back in history.
The Eden District of the Golden Age was established around 500 BC, and what he was asking about was before the Golden Era. At that time, the immigrants from the Eden District had not yet arrived in this world. That was the real "ancient era".
However, the Songhai people, as indigenous people of this world, actually recorded some things about that time.
Of course, as indigenous people, they had not yet developed their own writing in that ancient era, so the so-called records are ancient knotted rope records, which are more like legends and myths about distant times than orthodox history. And most of them are incomplete.
But in the description of the Pharaoh, Murphy noticed a rather interesting suspicion.
After tonight's reception dinner came to a perfect conclusion at midnight, when Murphy, the tipsy Tris and Adele, who had watched the dance all night, returned to their temporary residence, he said to Tris:
"The Pharaoh told me that his ancestors had recorded a poem praising the 'original leader'. The poem described a courageous queen who led the original Songhai people out of the oasis and towards the desert. The story of the sea.
Although he himself could not confirm the authenticity of this poem, as far as I know, there were no female pharaohs in the Songhai Empire, right? "
"Well, no, the eleven pharaohs, including Thutmnes II, were all men."
Even when the great historian Tris is drunk, she can still accurately tell the answers behind those historical questions. She said eloquently:
"As far as I know, the situation faced by the Songhai people at the beginning of the era was not optimistic. After all, you have seen the terrain of the place of origin. It is necessary to connect the clans in different oases across the vast yellow sand to form a common civilization. Things that can only be accomplished with great perseverance.
It is said that the first few pharaohs spent their lives running around the sea of sand. At that time, they were still collecting and praying for powerful relics of the Creator. Therefore, it was difficult for delicate women to take on such important tasks. The custom at that time became Tradition.
Later, it was solidified into a rule, so that the choice of the Pharaoh was passed down only among men.
The Thirty-three Pilgrimage Family King Selection System unique to the Songhai Empire has also deepened this tradition, because the king's power must be constantly rotated. The biggest problem with women serving as heads of state is that the succession sequence will shift, and the king's power will be transferred in an uncontrolled manner. way to complete.
This is a hidden danger that pilgrim families must avoid.
Of course, the status of women in the Songhai Empire is quite extraordinary. Although they cannot serve as pharaohs, there have been many female patriarchs in both the Dead Moon Church and the Burning Sun Church. There are also wise female officials holding important positions among the pharaohs' courtiers.
This alone is much better than the dregs of those feudal kingdoms in the Old World.
I heard that the status of women in the ancient country of Callum is also very high, especially those dragon girls. They will be given various important tasks by the Dragon Emperor to patrol all over the country. The marshal of the Northern Army currently stationed in Baishan City is one Dragon Girl.
The female marshal known as the 'Flaming Dragon', like Prince Bai, is a relative of the Dragon Emperor.
Chuchut also said that in their Aztec kingdom, although women could not serve as officials, most of the priests in Quetzalcoatl's inheritance were held by women.
In comparison, you, who appointed Miriam as the Scarlet Consul, are also a rare 'equal person' in the Old World, my little Murphy. "
"Oh, then I really have to thank you for your super high praise. My dear Tris, with your words, I don't have to worry about attracting the alien trace fist."
Murphy grinned and then said:
"I pay attention to that ancient poem not just because it describes a Queen of Songhai, but also because at the very beginning of the poem, it expresses in a very obscure way that the queen walked into the sea of sand. It is not just because of pure explore.
It is said that the Creator gave her inspiration and courage.
However, the era described by that poem was before the beginning of the Golden Age
Trish, if the poem is true, it means that the Songhai people were the first people the Creator came in contact with when he came to this world. "
"Well, this is most likely the Songhai people's way of putting money on their faces."
Tris shook her head and said:
"Now the events of the Golden Age have become legends, and everything that happened in the ancient times before that can no longer be verified, unless we find more evidence. But after you have decided to become the Songhai people as the chosen one of the God of Creation, In the case of correcting the name, there is actually no need to say this. ”
"really."
Murphy nodded.
When he brought the two ladies outside the palace where he was staying, he saw Hogg, who was being escorted by Captain Popok and several Jackal players, blowing in the wind on a cliff at night, apparently waiting for him.
"You guys go and rest, I'll be back soon."
Murphy said something to Tris and Adele, and then noticed that Tris made a gesture to him quietly, which made Murphy feel a pain in his balls. Physically.
Depend on!
We can't let Tris get drunk in the future. Why does this guy get so drunk?
"Ahem, my dear Xian Lang, looking at the red face on your face, I think you got what you wanted at the banquet just now, right?"
Murphy stepped forward and asked Hogg. When Xian Lang raised his head, his entire wretched face was filled with a smile.
It says:
"Thanks to you, I shamelessly managed to get some rice out of the Songhai tycoon. Three long-term assistance agreements have been finalized and will only be implemented after the pharaoh's birthday banquet. This is for those who are currently It's a real wonder for the Gnoll Kingdom trying to climb out of the mire.
But there is something I must report to you. "
Hogg whispered:
"The Songhay people's assistance to us is not free. I thought they would ask us to send some creation guards to act as mercenaries or something like that, but they didn't mention this at all. Instead, they asked us to be killed by jackals in the Dark Mountains. In the controlled area, search for gold-burning veins for them.
This is a rather strange request, Chief Murphy. You know, the Songhai people have never been interested in things like burning gold that come from subspace before.
Perhaps this represents some changes in the trend in their country?
I couldn't figure out the answer no matter how hard I tried, so I came to seek your wisdom. "
"Because the Songhai people do want to transform, Hogg."
Murphy stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the Ptolemaic City decorated with thousands of lights at night. It has to be said that now that the Songhai people have used solar energy, the night view of the Ptolemaic City has really become extraordinary. The feeling of the world’s “grand times”.
He blew the cold desert wind at night and explained to Hogg:
"Because of the assistance of foreign friends in the field of deconstructing the Creator's knowledge, the Songhai people have found a new direction to restart the Creator's legacy. However, this time the Creator's trial has indeed taught the Songhai people a lesson.
Although the Pharaoh tried his best to conceal the impact of this emergency on the empire, we heard about the unease and doubt spreading among the civilians in the Port of Origin and the Ptolemaic City.
In the previous thousand years, the Songhai Empire relied on the energy core left by the Creator for its energy. However, after this warning, the Songhai people also realized that the Creator's gift was not omnipotent.
As far as I know, in addition to further expanding the solar energy technology they have mastered, their machinists are also planning to obtain new energy sources through research on burning gold. They are obviously planning to lay down and learn from the halflings about the development of this field.
really.
Burning gold comes from subspace, but it is now part of this world system. Now that the Plantagenet Kingdom and the Yankees have begun to search for burning gold mines, the Songhai people cannot pretend not to see its value. "
"So that's it. This kind of prepared thinking is indeed worth learning from the jackals."
Hogg nodded thoughtfully, then rubbed his paws in embarrassment and said:
"So, Master Murphy, can we Jackals get some glory? You see, we are also members of the Creator's faction. In this major event of restarting the Creator's legacy, we cannot just be spectators."
"If you ask me, there's nothing I can do, Hogg."
Murphy complained:
"You don't think that without the help of foreign friends, we in Transia are capable of excavating the Creator's legacy on our own, do you? I only have a cooperative relationship with the other world."
"That is to say, I noticed that there is a big boss in the Explorers Guild who comes in the form of a jackal, called 'People of the motherland, please rest assured', and I intend to provide funds to assist his research."
Hogg whispered:
"I just hope you can help me connect."
"You figure it out yourself."
Murphy spread his hands and acted as the shopkeeper. He said:
"Your Excellency's research direction is biology, and the exaggerated biodiversity of the Dark Mountains has attracted him. It shouldn't be a big problem to start from this point. In addition, my development team has been short of cattle and horses recently, so this is for You."
Murphy threw a specially made computing orb to Hogg that had unlocked permissions and could connect to forums and third-party apps. This thing was an enhanced version of the fourth-generation orb newly produced by Minx and Old Flywheel. Trial work, very powerful.
"You are also very familiar with how to deal with players, so register an account yourself, and then look for Professor Malcolm on the forum, and he will assign work to you. The Jackal Kingdom has just been established, and you must learn to learn lessons from history and experience.
If you don’t have a reliable history, it’s the same thing to learn from other people’s histories. "
Murphy reminded:
"I also need you to adapt to the operation of the network system of the other world as soon as possible, because the 'Net of the World' led by Ms. Rose must follow that set of patterns to weave and expand, and the Jackal Kingdom will eventually become part of this ring-world network. .
But I remind you, don’t get too immersed in the bad jokes on the Internet in another world. "
"I am determined, Master Murphy, don't worry."
Hogg patted his chest and replied, obviously very confident in his iron will. However, Murphy, who knew the power of brainwashing and bad jokes, expressed regret for this.
He said goodbye to Hogg and slowly returned to his residence. As soon as he opened the door, he was knocked down by a goblin in the dark.
Okay, okay.
Since you can't resist, just enjoy it.
Murphy, who fell to the ground, sighed, cursing in his mind that this shitty life had turned him into the bear he is now. Then he grabbed the wet long hair of the female demon in front of him with his backhand and nibbled on her slender neck like a swan. He took a sip and threw her on the sofa in front of him.
Hey!
A turn of attack! ——
The palace mountain was very busy in the next three days. In addition to inviting foreign dignitaries to the Pharaoh's birthday banquet, various oasis pharaohs in the empire were also invited, especially the heads of the Thirty-three Pilgrim families, which was the highlight.
Every day, a new pharaoh enters the Ptolemaic capital, and every day, all kinds of luxurious things are sent to the palace mountain. All the servants of the entire Shahai Royal Court are mobilized to decorate the entire mountain, and even the citizens of Ptolemy City spontaneously help in the corners.
From this, it can be seen that Thutmose II is still very respected by the people in the country.
This respect has its tradition. After all, every pharaoh has a very good reputation among the people, except for the unlucky guy who was affected by the Mamluk rebellion more than 300 years ago. The most black humor is that the pharaoh in power at that time was Bom I.
Is this name familiar?
That's right!
It is the oasis family where the little mummy Nefertari came from.
The Bom family fell into decline after that rebellion. The pharaoh of their family stepped down sadly and became the one with the lowest reputation among the eleven pharaohs. He eventually died in depression in the Bom Oasis. When his family was at its worst, it almost didn't even keep its own oasis fiefdom.
Fortunately, Nefertari's magical grandmother was good at dancing with her sleeves, and she barely preserved the family heritage by relying on her close relationship with the kings of the underworld.
Now as a direct disciple of Bayek, the high priest of the Dead Moon, the little mummy shoulders the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the family. Once she can take over the high priest of the Dead Moon, the good days of the Bom family will come.
The little mummy arrived at the Ptolemy Royal City at noon on the third day.
She has completed the report to her mentor and the bigwigs of the Dead Moon Church. Judging from her jubilant attitude, this report went smoothly, but what shocked the players the most was not the little mummy who went back, but Afeng who came back with the little mummy.
This guy didn't know how to change his ID, changing the shameful "pants-stripping demon" to "Far Traveler Feng".
But this is not the point.
The point is that after Afeng went to the Holy City of the Moon and came back, he changed from a spirit to a serious underworld priest.
According to the guy's proud description, High Priest Bayek even gave him a special growth method to enable him to reach the realm of Hades Lich. Of course, the price is that Afeng will be tied to the Church of the Dead Moon for the rest of his life.
But this is not a bad thing.
After all, the Church of the Dead Moon is so thick that others have no way to kneel down.
"Quick! Get moving, lazy guys!"
In front of Murphy's temporary bedroom, the players who had been playing in Ptolemy King's City for three days and were not thinking about leaving have been gathered by Mr. Qin. They will change into formal clothes for birthday celebrations, designed by Mrs. Shui and produced by Brother Gomao's garment factory in Transia.
It roughly imitates the duty uniforms of the Creation Guards jackals.
The black bottom is decorated with golden and red armbands, the slim design and a pair of shiny leather boots make it look like Sandezi. Because it is a dress, there are some medals and tassels to embellish it, which makes players who are used to the mix-and-match style look like grown-ups after wearing it.
Especially the students, who are standing together to take pictures in their new clothes.
The girls also have their own new clothes.
They originally planned to let Mrs. Shui design skirts for them, but Mrs. Shui felt that everyone was a child of the rivers and lakes, and although wearing skirts was beautiful, it lacked the fierceness that Transian people should have, so she designed trousers uniformly.
The girls complained at first, but wearing them made them look quite handsome and heroic, which satisfied their vanity.
The most exaggerated thing is that Lord Murphy did not wear the traditional cumbersome ceremonial clothes of vampires today, but wore this new dress like the players, which made the players like their down-to-earth boss Murphy even more.
"Master, Lord Ofug is here too."
Adele, who was also wearing simple ceremonial clothes, fell from the sky. Her shirt swayed up and down twice when it landed, making Murphy a little dizzy. Then he heard Adele whispered:
"Lord Paying asked you to take the Transian delegation to meet him immediately. When the birthday banquet starts in the evening, we will follow the Palano Knights to enter the venue to celebrate. According to the tradition of the Songhai people, the birthday banquet will last from the night representing the moon to the scorching sun at noon the next day.
The whole process is very busy, so you should probably eat something first."
"It's okay, I can bear it. The ceremony is just to torture people."
Murphy shook his head and looked back at the prepared Players who are ready, he waved his hand to Qin Ye beside him and said:
"Let my warriors take our gifts and head to the main hall of Palace Mountain now. Follow Lord Palano into the hall later. Do whatever he tells you to do."
"Okay, Lord Murphy."
Qin Ye nodded, and looked back at the "gift" that was being carried by several tough guys of Giant Shark. He complained in his heart:
"If this thing is sent up, it will probably be rumored that the Transians are barbarians. How can you send this unlucky thing at someone's birthday party?"
