The Tomb Prince bowed slightly, and Snorri stepped onto the skeleton carriage at the front. Rogoff and Balin rode with him. The other Hammer Guards also boarded the carriage at the back in order.
Snorri advanced toward the city along the main road, escorted by the Ushabits on both sides of the chariot. The Ushabits were a group of huge stone guardians carved in the likenesses of the ancient gods of Nehekhara.
These three-meter-tall guys can be said to be monuments to Nehekhara's previous power. Lich priests bound the spirits of ancient heroes into the bodies of the structures through powerful magic. Therefore, their movements are full of hostility.
The temperament of the heroic soul and the power of the gods.
Snorri stood on the chariot, holding the car and looking at the historical city of Khemri. Some of the places here are famous in Nehekhara, from the huge pyramids, the towering temples, to the mysterious Sphinx.
kes statue.
The Tomb Prince was not a dedicated tour guide. He silently rode on his horse and led the way. However, Snorri still recognized two landmarks based on the documents he read and the memory of his previous life:
The Great Obelisk of Khemri, which records the achievements of the Immortal Emperor during his lifetime, and the temple of Petra, the former main god of Nehekhara.
The chariot moved very fast on the empty street. After about a quarter of an hour, the dwarves saw a large pyramid. The adventurers who came here before called it the Khemri Necropolis.
This is a labyrinth composed of hundreds of smaller pyramids surrounding the great pyramid of Settra himself. Khemri is the most powerful city-state in Nehekhara, and the kings here have built the largest and most massive pyramids for them.
pyramid.
After many twists and turns, the carriage stopped in front of the largest pyramid. Snorri looked up at the sophisticated creation, which was the crystallization of the wisdom and sweat of countless scholars and laborers in Nehekhara.
There is a bone giant standing on each side of the entrance. These giants are as tall as real giants, but they are not the skeletons of giants. They are still constructs, but due to the Nehekhara people's obsession with death and immortality, the giant statues are
It was directly carved into the shape of a huge skull.
The body of a bone giant is covered with skulls, bones and other common funeral decorations, and it wears a gorgeous breastplate and crown. To awaken such a giant requires the combined mana of twenty lich priests.
Snorri climbed down from the carriage and walked towards the pyramid with his head slightly lowered. His guards followed behind carrying gifts. The magnificence of this building was commendable even by the standards of dwarves, but in
It's still a bit lacking in subtlety.
The tomb passages in the pyramid are very complicated, with many forks and traps. It seems that Snorri has a problem with whether he can capture this pyramid with his entire three thousand troops, not to mention there are so many of Settra's soldiers around.
Descendants.
Not to mention the other soldiers in the burial pit, let's just say that Ushabit, a pair a few steps away, and the two bone giants at the door are enough to drink a pot of dwarf troops. These structures are strong and heavy, and the damage they cause is not armor.
It can be absorbed very well.
However, Snorri then thought about it, Settra probably did not expect that he and his subordinates would wake up in this way, so it was reasonable to prepare some mechanisms to deal with the tomb robbers.
Following the tomb prince who led the way, the group walked around the pyramid and went deep into the interior of the pyramid. Suddenly the space suddenly opened up and they entered a hall.
What appeared in front of Snorri was a staircase. He looked up and saw a coffin inlaid with jewels. On it sat a statue wearing a gorgeous ceremonial crown and helmet, and the mummy's body was completely covered in gold armor engraved with charms.
The king of.
Compared to the somewhat tiny mummy, the two huge lion-shaped structures beside him were undoubtedly more eye-catching. Snorri's subordinates couldn't help but tighten their grip on the objects in their hands, perhaps out of trust in their own strength.
, the dwarves were not asked to hand over their weapons when entering the hall.
Those were two Khemri fighting sphinxes. They lay at the feet of the king, as peaceful as pet cats, but everyone who saw them could clearly feel the power contained in them.
There is almost no part of this thing in the adventurers' records about the Tomb Kings, because they are not exposed, but guard the entrance to the king's chamber.
Unlike the clumsy bone giants, in addition to being incredibly destructive and almost invulnerable, they are also very fast and have the ability to leap. It can be said that no intruder can escape their pursuit.
"You creature in the mountains, why did you come to Nehekhara, the lonely kingdom?" The figure on the steps spoke, his voice was low, revealing a strong domineering air.
"I offer you my highest respect! Your Majesty Settra, the great Emperor of Nehekhara, the King of Kings, the Chosen God of Petra, the Champion of the Desert Gods, and the Watcher of the Eternal Cemetery!" Snow took a deep breath.
He took a breath, took a step forward, bowed deeply and spoke.
As a visitor of sufficient status, Snorri did not sing all of Settra's titles like a servant or slave. He selected a few of them that were more representative and were rewards that Settra had received during his lifetime.
came out.
"Stand flat!" Settra's voice waited for half a minute before rang. Snorri kept bending down. This was the lowest attitude he had ever had since he traveled through time.
"I am Thorgrin, the current co-owner of the mountains, the son of the Resentment One, and the chosen one of our mother goddess Valaya. I am ordered by the oracle to regain my homeland in the mountains of the South, and I must pass through your territory.
This is a small gift, but please be accommodating!"
Snorri stood up straight and explained his identity and the purpose of his visit concisely.
"Are the once powerful dwarves now in decline? You also played a role in building Gu's tomb." Settra looked at the group of dwarves in front of her and recalled something.
Of course Snorri knew that the rise of Settra would be 2,500 years before Sigmar established the human empire. At that time, the Longbeard War had not yet broken out, and the elves and dwarves were still in their honeymoon period.
The sky and sea belong to the high elves and their dragons, while the earth belongs to the dwarf states. The dwarves were extremely powerful. At that time, the humans in Nehekhara received a lot of help from the dwarves. This is why Snorri dared to come to see him.
s reason.
"For the sake of your ancestors, it's okay to grant your request! However, your people have disturbed the sleep of Gu Prince's people and stolen their wealth! Gu heard that you like to remember hatred, so what should you do?
How to calculate it?"
Settra stood up as he spoke. He put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist. The two sphinxes seemed to feel the anger of their master and moved.
