As the pharaoh of Egypt, Memphis has complicated feelings about the gods——

Of course he believes in the existence of gods. After all, Isis, who was born with magical power and became the high priest of the temple in her teens, is a good example. The priests in the temple can indeed use some supernatural powers. strength.

However, as a king, he is still full of thirst for power and hopes to be a king with great power. Memphis also dislikes theocratic power very much, because the power of theocratic power means the decline of royal power.

As the saying goes, "One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers." In Egypt today, it is said that royal power and divine power are equally important, but in fact, the relationship between the two is in constant competition, even struggle.

Memphis is a natural royalist. His attitude towards theocracy is respectful on the surface, but he is very unfriendly in his heart. This is one of the reasons why he does not want to marry Isis, because Isis is the high priest of the temple. If she becomes queen, the theocracy will definitely grow stronger.

At that time, his life as a pharaoh will be difficult.

With such an attitude towards the theocracy, it is self-evident what Memphis thinks about the gods. Although it is impossible for him to be contemptuous or disrespectful to the gods, his respect and worship are only superficial. It's just superficial.

If he was really devout to the gods, it would be impossible for him to single-handedly create the lie of "Daughter of the Nile"!

But now, because of what he did, the real god came to his door, and Memphis suddenly panicked. He had a hunch that what happened next must be something he didn't want to see.

However, the gods came, and as a pharaoh, he could not be absent, otherwise, he would really be charged with disrespect to the gods.

Therefore, even though he was very uncertain, Memphis still pretended to be calm and walked towards the temple.

He thought to himself, if it really came to a last resort, he would have to abandon Carol. It's just a pity that such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was lost!

If the matter really develops to that stage, it is necessary to cut off the tail to survive and abandon the car to protect the handsome man. However, his reputation and prestige will inevitably be affected to a certain extent. At that time, in order to ensure his status and maintain his rule , combined with Isis, became the only choice.

In this way, everything went back to the original point, not to mention, but went backwards. His situation is not as good as before he met Kyroll!Thinking of this, Memphis subconsciously vented his anger.

He completely ignored that all of this was his calculation. As his chess piece, although he dare not say how innocent he is, at least he can get some sympathy points compared to him, the culprit. .

When Memphis received the news and walked towards the temple, Kyrol, the "Daughter of the Nile" as the protagonist, was also a sinner named by the gods, so naturally she would not be missed, but her identity was exposed. Now, the person sent to inform her, it is conceivable that the attitude must not be much better.

No, their attitude is no longer simply bad, but can be called bad and rude.

Facing the hostile gazes and rude words and actions of the visitors, Kyroll was flustered, but at the same time, there was unconcealable fear and fear on his face.She backed away again and again until she touched the table, and was forced to stop. Immediately, she tried to show her momentum, but her trembling and cowardly voice betrayed her completely in an instant, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"What do we want to do?" The visitor sneered when he heard the words, "We should be asking you this question, right?! You, a sinner who pretends to be the daughter of a god, has the face to question us. You know that because of your behavior, How many people will be killed?!"

His words are definitely not alarmist!The Nile River is the economic lifeline of Egypt. More than half of the citizens depend on the farmland around the Nile River for their livelihood. Now, because of the behavior of this foreign slave, the gods have been angered. The rainy season ended early this year, and the Nile River has stopped flooding. It is foreseeable. Widespread famine is certain to break out in the coming year.

When the famine came, the nobles could still rely on the accumulation of previous years to feed themselves, but the common people could only ask for more blessings.

"How could...?!" Kyroll panicked when he heard that his identity had been exposed.

She didn't know how serious her actions had brought about, but she still had the most basic common sense, knowing that she would never admit it at this time!Otherwise, according to the worship and awe of the gods in Egypt, she would have to be tied to the stake and burned alive.

So Carol pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Isn't my identity known to everyone? Why do you say that?"

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, "Are you sent by Isis?!"

"Bold!" Hearing what Kyroll said, another guard who was standing on the side suddenly became furious, "You are a counterfeit, how dare you disrespect Queen Isis?!"

When they used to regard this foreign slave in front of them as the daughter of a god, they were indeed very dissatisfied with Queen Isis's behavior against her, and they inevitably had some thoughts behind their backs, but now, after being personally confirmed by the gods, Kyrol It was just a sinner pretending to be the daughter of a god, so their thoughts naturally changed accordingly.

Thinking about it now, Queen Isis is worthy of being the high priest of the temple, she has a bright eye!She must have discovered that there was something wrong with Kyroll's identity, so she repeatedly troubled her in order to expose her true colors.

It's a pity that this witch's methods are too clever. Not only did she confuse the Pharaoh to cover her, but she also deceived the people, causing them to misunderstand the noble Queen Isis. What a sin!

"Okay, don't talk nonsense with her anymore." The guard who spoke before should be a captain, he stopped the behavior of his companions, and said with the overall situation in mind, "My lord, and everyone else, still We are waiting to judge this sinner, we can't neglect Lord God and make them wait for a long time!"

As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the others suddenly trembled.

Seeing this, the team leader ordered two of his men to escort Kyrol to the temple. He himself walked in the front, while the others were scattered around to prevent the prisoners from escaping.

At this time, Carol had already decided in his heart that Isis must be playing tricks behind the scenes. There was some anxiety, but he was not too flustered. It was not that this kind of situation had never happened before, but every time, Memphis would catch up in time. To save her from fire and water.

She believed that this time would be no exception!

Thinking of his own Memphis, Kyroll couldn't help feeling a little shy, and two red clouds involuntarily rose on his cheeks.

At this moment, she completely forgot about her fiancé Jimmy in modern times, and completely ignored how her disappearance would make her family worry. Neither her sick mother nor her troubled brother left the slightest trace in her heart. , in her eyes, there is only room for one Memphis.

It's a pity that Carol has a deep affection for Memphis, and he misses his lover, but he doesn't know that Memphis is just using her, and he is even thinking about how to put the blame on her, the "Daughter of the Nile".

After all, if it has something to do with the word "blasphemy", then he, the pharaoh, is about to do it.

And if he was just deceived and bewitched, although it would also damage his wisdom, but he put himself in the position of a victim, he still had a chance to stand up, and then married Isis. My sister Wang's deep affection for him will definitely spare no effort to help him stabilize his position.

In this way, his power and status can still be preserved!

Waiting for the limelight to pass, this matter is gradually forgotten by people, and it will not be too late for him to slowly seek other things.

As the saying goes, "the lesser of two evils", one side is to become a sinner, have nothing, and maybe lose one's life, and the other side is to lose part of power and damage one's reputation. Naturally, it is self-evident that Memphis will choose. Yu!

However, no matter how well Memphis thought, the result would depend on Hecate and Lucifer's intentions.

It is strange that they will follow Memphis' script.

Both Memphis and Kyroll are not slow, but Isis is faster than them.

As the high priest of the temple, when she learned that a god had appeared, she naturally wanted to go to see it quickly, especially when the priest who came to report to her said the reason for the god's appearance this time, she couldn't sit still .

If she could take the opportunity to kill Carol and win back Memphis's heart, she would certainly like to be overjoyed, but if Egypt and her beloved brother were hurt because of this, that would not be what Isis wanted to see.She promised her father that she would protect Egypt and Memphis!

"Isis pays homage to the gods!" Isis wore the formal attire of the high priest, led the priests and priests behind her, and knelt down devoutly in front of Lucifer and Hecate.There are many gods in the Egyptian pantheon, and since she doesn't know which one is in front of her, in order to avoid offending, she can only refer to them like this!

Before she came, a priest had already come forward and invited Lucifer and others to the temple from the banks of the Nile River. Originally, they wanted to invite the gods to the temple and entertain them well, but Hecate refused Yes, she told everyone directly that the purpose of their appearance this time was to hold a public trial for the sinner who dared to pretend to be the daughter of a god.

The priests did not dare to disobey Hecate's wishes, so they had to set up a seat at the main entrance of the temple, and then sent soldiers to maintain order, lest the people rush over in excitement and disturb the gods.

In fact, the priests are simply unnecessary. With Abaddon and the others, if someone can rush in front of Lucifer and Hecate, then they will look at that person with admiration.
