From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Just when Ailixi recognized the shapes formed by the buildings on the ground, the Sphinx under her suddenly let out a strange cry, its wings stopped vibrating, and it fell straight to the ground from a high altitude, with Ailixi's body on its back. spirit body.

What else could Alicia do?

Of course, she chose to log out of the Eye of Horus directly and return to her residence in Thebes.

But before Erich directly logged out, she urgently opened another small window and went to the square of the Karnak Temple, where she threw the Sphinx tightly grasped by the nape of her hand into the middle of the square— —

Boom.

When Erich woke up in the secret room of her residence, she heard such a sound, a loud noise from the direction of the Karnak Temple.

Sorry, people of Thebes, for disturbing your sleep!

Alice muttered silently in her heart.

The entire city of Thebes, including the outer suburbs, had about [-] people, and most of them woke up from their sleep, not knowing what happened in the city.

Those who are daring are ready to put on their clothes and go out, and go to the Karnak Temple to see what happened.

But immediately, there was a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere in the whole city, and people began to feel sleepy.

Except for a small number of people who had duties and needed to keep watch over the city, most of the Thebes gradually forgot about the loud noise that woke them up and fell asleep one after another.

Erich experienced this power on the way to the Karnak Temple. She was a little surprised, and immediately recalled what happened in the temple of Knum, the god of craftsmen, and knew that it was Senmut who helped .

It's just that the scope of Senmut's influence and the quick effect this time still amazed Erich and admired her—the high priest's personality seemed to be much higher.

When Erich rushed to the Karnak Temple, she met Priest Ferrin, who was in charge of the safety of the temple, and was very nervous at this time.

But Alicia told him: "It's okay, there is nothing missing, just a little more!"

Ferlin looked suspicious. After all, there were many sculptures and precious stones offered by the devout believers of the God Amon in front of the Karnak Temple. The Thebes have always attached great importance to the guards of the temple, for fear that they will send gifts to the gods. offerings will be stolen.

At this moment, Alixi actually said that there would be something more, and Ferlin couldn't believe it.

A group of people came to the square in front of the Karnak Temple with torches. Ferrin and his followers were all stunned——

On the square in front of the temple, there seems to be a huge sphinx.

The loud noise just now seemed to be the sound caused by the huge stone statue falling on the square.

"This is……"

Ferring didn't recognize the stone statue.

But some of the people around him recognized it.

"I have seen!"

A middle-aged man called out loudly.

"When I was young, I used to go to Giza with my uncle and father to see the giant tombs built by the previous pharaohs! I even carved paintings on the pyramids to prove that we have been there!"

Alice suddenly saw two thin slits in the eyes of the stone statue behind her, and a little blue light leaked out of the slits.

Alixi coughed twice quickly, and the two thin slits closed again in an instant.

Meanwhile, the middle-aged man continued to finish his sentence.

"That's the Sphinx in front of the Great Pyramid of Giza!"

"There is absolutely nothing wrong."

Ferrin and his companions were stunned. Who would have thought that what fell from the sky in the middle of the night and landed in front of the Karnak Temple turned out to be the giant stone statue of Giza?

The distance from Thebes to Giza is so far away, how could such a heavy stone statue come to Thebes suddenly, and why did it land in front of the Temple of Karnak?

However, such an open space in Thebes is the most suitable for the sudden airborne landing of the Sphinx. If it really falls into that inhabited area, the casualties may not be small.

Filling was immediately vigilant: "The stone statue from Lower Egypt..."

Alicia was extremely comfortable, and said with a smile: "Maybe I made a special trip to worship God Amon!"

The two slits quietly leaked light again, and the Sphinx seemed to want to stare at Elyse very much at this moment.

Fortunately, the torches of Filin and the others around were too bright, and no one noticed its stiff face standing in the night sky, so the Sphinx did not reveal its secrets.

Erich coughed again and again, and asked, "Should we leave this suddenly descending stone statue in Thebes? Just to decorate it in front of the temple of God Amon?"

When Feilin and the others heard this, they were very excited, and immediately said, "Okay!"

The Sphinx's cheeks moved again immediately, revealing a tragic grin.

But as soon as people's eyes turned to its head, the Sphinx was still the sphinx in a dignified posture, looking up at the distant sky.

Senmut also arrived in a moment.

The high priest wore a flowing linen robe, let the night wind blow his long hair scattered behind his shoulders, and came quietly behind Elyse.

Erich whispered to Senmut: "Thank you!"

She thanked him for calming the whole city of Thebes with the fastest speed just now.

Senmut also responded lightly: "Nothing?"

He stood beside Alicia with his hands behind his back, and after looking up and down the Sphinx, he suddenly asked, "Sphinx? The one stationed at Giza?"

The two thin stone cracks slowly opened a little bit, and the azure light revealed from them swept in the direction of Senmut. The Sphinx closed his eyes tightly for a while, as if he didn't dare to look at Senmut at all. Mutt.

"Filin, well, there's nothing else going on here. You can take everyone away first."

"Whether to keep this stone statue in Thebes, I will discuss it with the high priest before making a decision."

Ailixi confessed a few words to Feilin, and the chief priest of the temple quickly took orders and left in a hurry.

When he and his people left, they turned their heads three times a step at a time, marveling at the giant stone statue that appeared out of thin air.

"Well, Sphinx, what the hell is going on here?"

Erich saw that only she and Senmut were left in front of the Sphinx.He immediately changed his tone and asked unceremoniously.

The two slits still did not open again, and the Sphinx seemed too frightened to open his eyes in front of the two of them.

"You fell suddenly just now, were you attacked?"

Hearing the word attack, Senmut couldn't help frowning.

The big cat with a human face closed its eyes and nodded obediently.

"If I hadn't brought you here, you'd have been smashed into a pile of rubble?"

The big cat nodded vigorously this time, as if expressing gratitude.

Erich recalled that she felt the same way about her premonition of danger at that time.

That kind of power is really ruthless. The Sphinx just questioned the pharaoh's actions of digging and building randomly in Giza. The other party is about to drop the Sphinx from a high place and break it into a ball of rubble?

Or, that kind of power is not aimed at the sphinx, but at all creatures that can rise to a high enough height to see the strange shape on the ground.

No wonder birds such as falcons are rarely seen circling high above Giza these days.

"Sphinx, for your safety, you might as well stay here."

Alicia thought about it and made a decision.

The Sphinx, who has stood in front of the tombs of the ancient pharaohs for thousands of years, came to Thebes and stood in front of the Temple of Amun, which was only good for her.

The Sphinx seemed to be taken aback, and his eyes suddenly opened, staring like a pair of round bells.

But when it saw Senmut behind Alixie, it immediately closed its eyes tightly again, as if it didn't dare to look at him at all.

After a while, the Sphinx came out like a cat meowing: "Can you... take me back?"

Alicia smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm scared...but when I think that people in Giza will find me missing at dawn tomorrow, I feel so ashamed..."

Alixi can fully understand its mentality.After all, this person himself should have once held a high position.Although it looks cowardly, it doesn't look like a high-ranking person at all.

"If you are like me, standing in the same place for thousands of years, you will understand that nothing is important except dignity..."

When Alicia heard Sphinx say this, she immediately decided: "I'll send you back right away."

She stretched out one hand to rest on the tall paw of the sphinx, and with the other she held the Eye of Horus on her chest.

Senmut beside him asked in a deep voice, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Alixi looked back at him, and found that the man's eyes in the night were as sincere as ever.

In addition to helping her appease the civilians in Thebes, Senmut rushed here late at night, just worried about her, for fear that she would have other needs.

She immediately smiled at Senmut: "There are indeed some people who need your help, but this time I want... to be safe."

Of course, Erich wants to ask Senmut for help, and let's refer to the strange symbol she once saw in the sky.

But with the precedent of the Philosopher's Stone last time, Erich didn't intend to let Senmut explore the meaning of this symbol rashly.

After sending the Sphinx back to Giza, Erich thought for a long time, and decided to find the acting priest Sasha and ask him to use the amulet for divination. Will the high priest Senmut be in danger because of this.

Sasha readily took out his pair of tuning forks, started divination, and quickly got the answer: "There is no danger!"

Erich was finally relieved, she drew the strange symbols she saw over Giza and showed them to Senmut——

Then this is a regular octagon, like the stars surrounding the moon, encircling the largest pyramid in Giza in the middle.

It was never clear to Elyse what the regular octagon meant in Egyptian funerary culture.But when she was in the sky, after seeing this regular octagon composed of giant buildings, she now confirmed that there was no danger, so she took it to consult Senmut.

Small golden glyphs flashed in Senmut's eyes, as if searching quickly for results in his palace of knowledge.

But he gave Elich feedback in vain: "No, whether it is a pyramid or a royal tomb, there has never been a regular octagon in Egyptian tomb architecture..."

Alicia pondered: She didn't want to ask what shape the pharaoh's tomb would be built. What she thought was problematic was why the pharaoh would add a few more to the existing buildings in Giza, which would span thousands of years , the buildings completed by the previous pharaohs are connected in series with a regular octagon.

After searching in vain, Senmuth decided to use the oracle method and directly ask the god who is more knowledgeable.

Unexpectedly, he had just prepared the altar and started the ceremony. He placed it on the altar in advance, and the piece of paper with the regular octagon was directly ignited by a ball of flames, and turned into ashes in an instant.

Erich stayed by Senmut's side during this process, in case Sasha's divination results were inaccurate and something happened to Senmut, she could help.

Who knew that Sasha's divination results were accurate——

There was really no danger of Senmut helping her to discover the mysteries of the regular octagon.

Of course it didn't work out.

Senmut is frustrated by this, and Elyse is deeply depressed. She only discovered the secret after risking smashing the precious relic Sphinx.

But Erich is not one to get discouraged easily.

She drew this figure on paper and distributed it to Gregor who had just returned to Thebes on the kingship, and he then forwarded it to mercenaries from all over the world, asking them to identify where they had seen this figure. I've seen it, under what circumstances.

She also gave the same blueprint to Feilin and Mushana couple, asking them to ask the old people who understand the traditions of Upper Egypt on their behalf.

Of course, she also passed this pattern to Miss Biola in Tanis, and asked her to ask the merchants in Tanis.

In addition, she also has a follower in Giza, Zhan Jialai, who can keep track of the movements there, and two other followers will pass by Giza in two days.

On this day, on a whim, she took the toddler princess Ou Nai to the elementary school behind the temple of Knum, the god of craftsmen-Senmut has been teaching here.

And taking the opportunity to teach these craftsmen's children, Senmut has thoroughly organized [-] secular pictographs into a set of writing and expression systems that can really be used for writing and expression.

Erich sat on the steps of the temple, and from time to time she needed to quickly hug back her teammates who had crept away.

Seeing this, Hansu, who especially likes to play with O'Nai, sneaked out of Senmut's classroom, holding a stack of literacy cards with various pictographic characters in his hand.

Erich knew that Hansu often used this as a toy to tease Ohnai.

For some reason, Ou Nai also likes the toy that Hansu brought.

As for Erich herself, she didn't want O'Neill, the original baby, to be too precocious, and to learn to recognize a lot of words before learning to walk.As a mother, she never thought of having a baby chicken.

Therefore, she took the literacy card handed over by Hansu from Aunai's fat little hand.

O'Neill stretched out her hand to grab it, and with a snap, Erich lost her grip for a moment, and the two square cards fell to the ground stacked on top of each other.

Alicia concentrated, and suddenly found that these two square cards were stacked staggered at different angles, forming a special shape:

There are two square cards, the centers overlap, and the four corners point in different directions. There are a total of eight right-angled cards, and the eight tips together form a regular octagon.

Erich instantly realized that this might be a reminder from the original baby, she immediately looked up at Ou Nai——

I saw a pair of lacquer-like eyeballs of my teammate staring at her. There was no expression on her little face, and her eyes were dark.

At the same time, Erich heard Viola praying in her ear.

"Great god, I think I may know what the figure that the priest asked me represents."
