At eight o'clock in the evening, the market center of Cairo's black market.
"It's so deserted." When Bediwell came to the market center, he saw that the scenery from a distance was very different from the Cairo black market on ordinary days. Although there were still a few vendors here who continued to set up stalls to sell things, the flow of customers was
The quantity was obviously dozens of times less than usual, so even the vendors who continued to set up stalls began to yawn, as if they wanted to close up early and go home to sleep.
It’s no wonder that yesterday’s siege by Moby Dick, the Desert Demon Whale, had a big impact on the entire Cairo. The Egyptian government implemented a half-time curfew, and many citizens without permission cannot even be on the streets after 7 p.m.
Wandering around, it is even less possible to do business on the black market. However, the news that Moby Dick was "eradicated" has spread throughout Africa. This series of turmoil is expected to subside within a few days, and then Cairo
The black market will return to its original bustling, bustling and noisy appearance.
But considering what Bediville is going to do next, maybe the deserted black market in Cairo is actually an "advantage"?
Before Bediwell arrived at his destination, there was already someone waiting for the werewolf youth there. And it was not just Kana, but three people. In addition to Kana, Bediwell also knew one of the three.
Yes, that person is Prince Said. And there is another middle-aged man wearing a crisp black suit. Although at first glance he seems to be the prince's personal bodyguard, the temperament he exudes seems to be different from that of an ordinary bodyguard.
, he may be a big shot. At least the suit that looks very high-end, and the equally high-end black-framed glasses, are not something ordinary bodyguards can afford. And that man obviously has neatly combed and waxed hair at night.
His black hair, which is slightly greasy and neatly adheres to his head, forms a very unique hairstyle, which makes this man's temperament a bit higher than ordinary people.
"Good evening, Captain Bedivere." As the werewolf youth approached, the middle-aged man in a black suit greeted him.
Bedivere was initially stunned when he was greeted by a stranger, but he instantly recognized the other person's voice. He had heard this voice before. Yes, during the battle with Moby Dick yesterday,
I heard it from the communicator. The owner of this voice should indeed be...
"Mr. Jia Ruofa?" Bedivere asked a little uncertainly.
"Exactly," the man replied as expected. He was none other than Egypt's current Minister of Defense, Jarofa.
"And Prince Said, good night." Bedivere said to the prince again: "I'm really sorry for bothering you to come here so late at night."
"Where." Prince Said nodded slightly: "This Miss Kana asked us to be your witnesses, because participating in the [Guardian Trial] requires legal witnesses, so we came. Bediville
Captain, you have contributed greatly to the elimination of Moby Dick. When Miss Kana mentioned that you needed witnesses, I came here without hesitation."
"I don't really want to come." Defense Minister Jarofa pushed up the frame of his glasses and said seriously: "Even now, I still advocate that Captain Bediwell return the [Sun God's Sun Disk] in your hand to the Egyptian government.
After all, it is one of Egypt's national treasures, and it should be placed where it belongs, in the Egyptian treasury. But since Prince Said insists so, then I will also be your second witness before handing it over.
You deserve a chance to prove yourself before [Sun Wheel]."
"Hahaha..." the werewolf young man said with a bitter smile. A serious person like Jia Ruofa was the type he was least likely to find a solution to. Then he turned his eyes and looked at Kana, and couldn't help but ask with interest: "Kana, you too
It’s quite impressive that he was able to invite Prince Said and Mr. Jarofa.”
"Haha." Kana replied with a poker-faced smile and said nothing.
"Of course, after all, Miss Kana is mine------" Prince Said wanted to say something.
"Ahem------" Kana quickly interrupted with a dry cough: "Please stop being polite. Shouldn't we get the business done first?"
"Of course." The prince seemed to have noticed something. Maybe he didn't know before that Kana was deliberately hiding the details in front of Bedivere, but now he finally knew it and did not continue: "Let's go."
"Speaking of which...where are we going? What should I do?" Under the leadership of the prince, everyone began to move. At the same time, Bedivere couldn't help but curiously asked: "What is this so-called [trial]?"
A very dangerous trial?"
"Danger? Oh no, not really." Kana was supposed to explain it, but Prince Said thought Bedivere was asking him, so he started to explain: "The selection of [Guardian of the Sun God]
The trial has almost nothing to do with combat. It is purely a ritual that allows [a certain system] to identify whether you have the qualifications to be a guardian. Theoretically, it should not cause any direct danger to the person being tested. But I also
It’s just based on the records in the ancient books, and it’s true. No one knows what the actual situation is. After all, no one has undergone such a trial for thousands of years.”
Indeed, the [Sun Disk of the Sun God] is an artifact that was deeply sealed in the ancient tomb of the first Pharaoh King Menes and has never seen the light of day for thousands of years. It was revealed for the first time in these thousands of years.
It was discovered that it fell into the hands of Bediwell, and today's trial took place. Being able to participate in this kind of trial can probably be said to be an honor.
And when he heard the prince say that there was no immediate danger in this trial, Bedivere couldn't help but feel a little relieved - not so relieved that he would take it lightly.
Kana specifically asked Bedivere to meet him at the Cairo Black Market, and indeed she had a purpose. The group followed Prince Said and soon came to the place where Bedivere had been before. The prince committed suicide underground.
A hidden base built by the Werewolf. Last time the werewolf youth came through the passage of the abandoned church, he could see a group of researchers trying to cast red moon steel weapons (replicas of the moon steel weapons) in a place similar to a large furnace. This time the base seemed
There is no longer the vague scorching heat before, because the furnace has been shut down, and the underground dock connected to the base seems to have been closed------The Petergo has completed its mission, relying on the Petergo
The sacrifice of all members of the ship destroyed the portal where [Moby Dick] was born.
Now in this somewhat deserted underground base, a group of people are walking along the corridor, seemingly planning to reach a certain facility in the base. Since it is a trial related to [Guardian of the Sun], Bediwell expected that he would be taken
Go to some kind of ancient Egyptian ruins, not this underground base. So why are they walking in this base? Are they going to use a certain teleportation room in the base for further transfer?
It was completely consistent with the werewolf youth's guess. There was indeed a teleportation room deep in Prince Said's private base. The equipment there was similar in shape to the teleportation room on the Great Britain battleship. It could almost be said to have the same technology.
"So it's teleportation." Bediwell asked tentatively: "Where are you going next?"
"Aswan." The prince replied: "An unknown deep valley is recognized by this ancient kingdom as a secret place where gods have lived for generations."
Aswan? Bedivere didn't react at all for a while, not knowing where exactly it was. He was not very familiar with the geography of Egypt. In the previous "First Phase of the Round Table Trial", Bedivere and others
Although they also traveled upstream along the Nile River to the Gilimanjaro volcano, they had to cover such a long distance in three days. The journey was so hasty that they must not have paid much attention to the scenery along the way. Of course,
If you want to play, you won’t pay too much attention to the Aswan area, which is far away in an instant. Bediville only knows that it is a city along the Nile River, but what kind of special scenery does it have, and what kind of secret realm is hidden there? The Werewolf
The young man had never even heard of it.
"That's where the Phoenix lives." Kana said suddenly.
"Phoenix...?" Hearing this, Bedivere couldn't help but be startled. In fact, he has been quite destined to this magical creature (Kama) in his life.
"More accurately, it is [a certain] phoenix ------ [Sunbird], the residence of Lord." Prince Said corrected: "It is considered to be one of the incarnations of the sun god [Ra]
, Master Sunbird has been enshrined by Egypt for a long time. Of course, this is a strictly guarded secret. There are no more than ten people in the world who know about it at this time. Captain Bedivere, no matter whether you can pass the "Guardian's Trial" today or not,
], please don’t spread the word about Master Sunbird’s location.”
"I understand." The werewolf young man assured solemnly.
If a country has enshrined such a great creature like a god for thousands of hundreds of years, they certainly don't want this great creature to be disturbed by poachers. Unlike the discrete clan regimes of the orcs, these human beings
Many people in the national government are very superstitious. They tend to link various great creatures with the national destiny of their country, believing that these great creatures enshrined control the destiny of a country. Bediwell used to play in the Knights of Great Britain
Tuan had read such books when he was Arthur's servant. It seems that Great Britain was also very superstitious a long time ago. The ancient Britons seemed to follow Druidism and worship the earth goddess Gaia. This earth goddess Gaia
Many archaeologists and ethnologists today have countless heated debates about whether Gaia really existed, but no one can convince anyone. There is a lack of conclusive evidence. But there is no doubt that the goddess Gaia was worshiped.
Even the knight title in the Knights of Great Britain has such a title that is suitable for the goddess of the earth------Knight of Gaia. Above the Golden Knight and below the Celestial Knight, it is the second highest rank in the Knights of Great Britain.
, these are the "Knights of Gaia".
...It's too far away. The werewolf young man came back to his senses and tried to concentrate on the matter in front of him. At this time, the prince also explained the situation to the manager in the teleportation room, a portal leading to Aswan.
It opened like this.
"After arriving in Aswan, we still have to walk a long way to reach the deep valley. Let's set off quickly." Prince Said urged, taking the lead into the portal. (To be continued)
