From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

And Alicia didn't have to look for it at all.

She has seen the Philosopher's Stone.

It was just hanging in the air within arm's reach in front of her.

A crimson, translucent polygonal gem, suspended in the air, slowly rotates along an illusory axis.

Alicia smiled wryly, thinking about it, she really deserved it.

The purpose of alchemy is to convert mediocre, base, and contaminated metals into gold, which temporarily helps the alchemist achieve his goal.

But it is not really a touchstone after all, and those who get this gold will eventually find that they are ordinary metals, and they will feel great disappointment.

So that's the essence of alchemy.

As for why the pharaoh Delos and the great priest Dahor set up an alchemy formation here in Giza, Erich believes that this is probably a coincidence.

The purpose of Delos and Dahor is to send the original information to the starry sky, so that the original companions can receive the original coordinates.

The primordial is closely connected with the creation, and a series of concepts of purifying and improving in the process of creating the world happen to be consistent with alchemy.

Therefore, the double phalanx arranged by Dahol happened to be exactly the same as the alchemy formation set up by the alchemists, and he also directly called it the alchemy formation.

Therefore, when Dahor manipulated the pharaoh to complete this huge ceremony, he would be able to bring the by-product of the alchemy circle—the Philosopher's Stone.However, Dahol didn't know about this point, or didn't care about it.

Thinking of this, Ailixi finally picked out a seemingly clear clue in the logic that could almost make her completely stunned.

But, it's not right, because she is in the way, the formation is not completed yet, is it?

Wait, what did that guy with long ears say just now?

Huge deception and huge disappointment.

After Erich tried his best to stop it, the sun god Ra cut off the beard and harvested people's hearts, and made the Egyptians who Erich tried so hard to save turn around and turn against Erich—this is the real madness Deception, and a huge disappointment for Elyse.

This kind of deception and such disappointment—by mistake, helped her meet the conditions for opening the Philosopher's Stone.

Erich stretched out her hand in the air, trying to grab the gem suspended in the air.

Her fingers seemed to have felt the energy released by the gemstone.

Senmut was standing beside Alixie, frowning at this moment, looking at Alixie's expression of mixed sorrow and joy, he still seemed to feel that something was wrong.

He saw Alixi reach out and hold the gem, and then turned to him with a look of astonishment.

Immediately afterwards, Senmut felt an overwhelming disappointment.

In the matter of disappointment, Alicia has accumulated too much, and it is almost unbearable.

But Senmut is no longer the strong empath who shed tears because of Erich's sadness.He already has a strong control over his own emotions and the emotions of others.

"Alich—"

The clear voice sounded, allowing her to quickly stabilize from the violently fluctuating emotions.

That invisible hand gently wiped away all the strong and angry emotions in her heart, allowing a trace of calm tenderness to reappear in her heart.

Standing in front of her, Senmut opened his arms to her, as if wanting to provide her with unconditional protection and support, wanting to welcome her to run towards him, wanting to accept her desperately burying her face in his neck nest.

In the end, Alicia just accepted a gentle hug from him.

"Finally I can do it too, to be a firm anchor, Erich."

Alicia heard the man whisper in her ear.

"It doesn't matter if you can't find the Philosopher's Stone, there are still a few original items, we will definitely find something that can help you advance..."

"Hahaha……"

Wanton laughter sounded from a corner of the chess room.

The shadow of the demigod of the fennec fox that just disappeared layer by layer as if the scroll was drawn away was quickly outlined from the corner.

"Yes, yes, yes..."

The tiny ears on the guy's hairy head seemed to be moving slightly, which would definitely drive the mystics crazy.

He clapped his hands as he appeared.

"Not bad, your anchor is of good quality—well, have you accepted my suggestion to have another child with him—"

This time it was Senmut's turn to turn red.However, the anchor at this moment was replaced by Erich, and she seemed to have ice and iron in her heart, unmoved by any tenderness.

This kind of cold and hard emotion can be used by Senmut as the cornerstone of stabilizing his own emotions, so that the blush on the face of this handsome, fair-skinned high priest quickly faded and gradually turned pale.

Similarly, after witnessing the interaction between Erich and Senmut, the fennec demigod's face gradually turned dark, as if recalling some unforgettable past events that he couldn't bear to look back on.

"Do you think I wasn't disappointed enough just now?" Alicia asked very calmly.

She finally figured out the intention of this senior demigod.

"Yes……"

The fennec fox demigod gave the answer.

"That's why I manifested the Philosopher's Stone just now to deceive you."

The demigod has no scruples and directly tells the truth about the deception.

"But it should be close by now."

The demigod pointed at Elyse and asked, "Can you find it now?"

Alicia subconsciously reached for her neck, as if checking the expensive necklace she usually wears.

She seemed to have touched something, gradually grasped it with her right hand, and then gently pulled it out from her neck bit by bit——

It was a huge multi-edged gem with a bright red body.

The morning light came in from the platform on the east side of the chess room, shining on this gem.

It looks pure and flawless, but its color is deep and strong, like a ball of blood that cannot be melted.

Erich held this original item in front of Senmut, and both of them felt the characteristics of this Philosopher's Stone at the same time.

The stone of deception is also the stone of disappointment.

It takes pleasure in deception and prides itself in disappointing others.

It's like a huge joke the Creator made with the world.

It is good at creating illusions and deceiving people's hearts. It is most happy to see the beauty and success that have been formed being thrown to the ground and smashed into pieces...

However, it is called the Philosopher's Stone.

It turns out that the sages are the best at creating virtual happiness and then destroying it...

Ailixi held this gem that was almost bigger than a goose egg, and looked at the fennec fox demigodly, feeling a little pity in her heart.Senmut sensed it immediately.

So the two of them frowned slightly at the same time, looking at the fennec fox half-heartedly.

Erich's tone was gentle, with some sympathy, she asked the fennec fox demigod: "Has it ever been opened?"

The fennec fox demigod had imitated its illusion just now, but the imitation was so realistic that it was indistinguishable from the real original object.Then it can only prove that the demigod of the fennec fox has also opened this item with his own hands.

This explains why this Asut, who followed Seth, was able to ascend to demigod status.

but--

Great deception and great disappointment...

Alicia almost didn't dare to think about what this demigod had experienced.

The demigod fennec fox looked at the two of them and smiled, with the corners of its mouth cheerfully raised, as if looking at the two biggest fools in the world.

"I said..." He stretched out a hand, pointing at Erich with his right hand with long nails in the shape of a beast's claw.

"You are about to be promoted, but you only found two of the three necessary items. If the conditions for promotion are not met, even if you force the promotion, you will die."

die?

Failure to advance will directly lead to death?

Alicia thought to herself: It seems that there is a reason why there are so few demigods in this world.

Several possible options quickly flashed through her mind.

Witnesses to the passing of millennia... how exactly does that play a role in the ascension to demigod?

Should she go to Thebes to invite Bais?Or is there another option?

The demigod of the fennec fox exaggeratedly shook his head, sighing quietly: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's finally hard for another demigod to appear in this world."

"Without the right witnesses, you risk fading through the promotion process."

will disappear?

Ellie raised her eyebrows half-consciously in hope of the fennec fox, as if she was not impressed by his clumsy provocation, and seemed to say again: Act, you continue to act!

Immediately, her heart moved, she raised her head, looked at the size of the chess room, nodded, and said, "Enough!"

Erich immediately stuffed the Philosopher's Stone into Senmut's hand, and stretched out her hand to hold the Eye of Horus hanging on her chest, and her spirit body disappeared immediately.

The fennec fox looked at the Philosopher's Stone in Senmut's hand half-heartedly, and was a little dazed for a moment.

His eyes were full of doubts, as if he was asking: How could she trust you so much?

The line of sight then moved down and touched the huge multi-edged ruby ​​in Senmut's hand. The demigod's eyes turned from doubt to greed, as if he wanted to quickly snatch the Philosopher's Stone from Senmut's hand.

Senmut immediately took a step back, with his vest against the stone wall of the chess room, countless tiny golden symbols flashed in his eyes.

He may not be as strong as Alixie's fighting ability.But as a priest of the god of knowledge and wisdom, he was not a vegetarian either.

When the two men stood at each other's ends of the chess room and were deadlocked, there was a bang, and Erich's spirit body jumped back from the other small window of the Eye of Horus.

When he came back, he brought a huge object—no, it was a huge cat with a human face, wearing a headgear that belonged to the pharaoh, squatting in this chess room with great reluctance.

Its size is too large, almost filling the entire chess room. The head with the pharaoh's headgear is against the ceiling, and its chin is knocked on the square table in the chess room. The whole body can hardly move.

Its body with wings could not fit in the chess room, most of it was built on the open-air platform outside.

Its eyes were as wide open as copper bells, and its face was full of surprise and grievance, looking pitifully at the person in front of it.

The two men stared in amazement at this creature that had at least witnessed the passage of a thousand years, so that the latter smiled at them in embarrassment, then forced himself to calm down, and began to look around the chess room.

"After so many years, this chess room still looks like this."

As a former pharaoh, Sphinx had obviously been to this chess room.

Senmut suddenly smiled, probably praising Alixi's quick wit in his heart.

No matter from which point of view, the Sphinx is a witness to the thousand-year history of Egypt.

It used to be a pharaoh and stood in front of the Great Pyramid as a stone statue for thousands of years.

It has witnessed the rise and fall of various Egyptian dynasties, and also witnessed the fleeting and multiplication of countless lives.

From this point of view, the Sphinx is more suitable than the God of Bais in Upper Egypt, or those gods who have not walked around the world for thousands of years.

Alixi turned around and stood on the platform outside the chess room, looking at the small figure like ants on the ground.

After experiencing the emotional ups and downs just now, Erich is completely calm now.

Now she could watch quietly as the people on the ground responded enthusiastically to the request of the Priest of Ra and quickly assembled, wishing to fly to the border of Upper and Lower Egypt immediately.

And there seemed to be an invisible barrier on this platform, which cut off all the noise that could disturb the mind, so that Erich could face everything calmly.

"Okay, let's take a look!"

"Thousands of years later, the possibility of being promoted to a demigod once again appeared on the land of Egypt—"

However, the Sphinx's face changed, and he let out a scream similar to a meow: "Promotion? Demigod?"
