Chapter 455: Gestures
Lu Yao originally liked Dog City quite a lot.
An ancient city hidden in the virtual universe. Under the isolation caused by the seal, Dog City worked hard to establish stable trade relations with the Resurrection Kingdom and the Yao Clan.
Goods enter the city and are exchanged for the Fire of Faith, which then flows back into the city's inventory, allowing the value of both parties to flow.
The leader of Dog City, the scarab beetle Kepri, shows calm pragmatism and efficiency to the outside world and does not engage in unnecessary things.
If the partners are smart and reliable, the whole cooperation will become easy and enjoyable.
So if Dog City is in trouble, Lu Yao is willing to provide support within his ability. Although Charles was vague about it, it didn't matter. Lu Yao was too lazy to get involved in the internal affairs of Dog City.
Yao clan all commodities trading? OK
Except for a few special categories, Lu Yao released all of them.
Start the outer loop.
This brought Lu Yao a total of 3.8 million in the fire of faith.
Civilization is priceless, but the output of civilization is valuable.
However, at this moment, a series of strange reminders appeared on the simulator.
【Menis expressed his appreciation for Tribal Wars.】
【Menis becomes fanatical about Tribal Wars.】
【Menis shows great interest in you. 】
[Menis has challenged you through Tribal Wars. Do you want to accept his invitation to duel in Tribal Wars 2: Seal of the Old Gods? ]
【whether】
What is this?
Lu Yao was completely confused.
Menis? I don't have any connection with this person.
He clicked on the entry.
Displayed on screen.
[The dog city prohibits the gods from spying. 】
It turns out that Menis is in Dog City.
Lu Yao slowly understood everything.
The Yao tribe's products, including the tribal war chess, were given to Menes by Kebli.
Considering Khepri's unremitting gift-giving behavior, it is sufficient to prove that it is at a disadvantage in its contact with Menes.
It could be to get some kind of exchange, or it could be to win over Menes.
Lu Yao clicked [No].
I don't have enough time to keep an eye on all the civilizations in one day, and I don't have time to solo with you.
After a while the simulator popped up again.
[Menis challenges you through the tribal chess game...]
【no】
[Menis challenges you through the tribal chess game...]
【no】
…
It's endless, isn't it? Lu Yao was annoyed.
He could ignore it, but the reminder bar kept appearing, which affected his ability to view important information and was annoying to look at. It was like some kind of viral ad.
There is no customer service or complaint service on the simulator, and no blocking or blacklisting function is found.
Now Lu Yao has no other choice but to ignore it.
The outrageous thing is that if you ignore the challenge invitation, it will pop up again soon.
This Menis keeps popping up windows.
Lu Yao was a little annoyed.
He switched to the desktop, opened the web page and logged into the committee's official website.
Enter [Menice] in the database.
After a moment, the web page refreshed and a description popped up.
…
[Menes]: The founding king of the First Dynasty of Egypt. He unified Egypt and ushered in the era of Pharaoh rule... He holds the titles of [The First Pharaoh], [The Land of the Decisive Battle of the White City], and [The King of White and Red].
…
Menes unified Upper and Lower Egypt around 3100 BC, turning the entire Egypt into a country and becoming one of the shining stars in human history.
But what is more strange is that in his later years he was attacked and killed by a hippopotamus.
The title god can't beat the hippopotamus... This is really a bit confusing.
Lu Yao felt that there must be some hidden reason behind the death.
Because he is an ancient Egyptian god and the time is too far away, there are not many direct descriptions about Menes. The official information approved by the committee only adds one point - Menes is a subordinate god of Horus, the Sailor God.
Lu Yao checked the relevant supplementary literature and articles below.
Two of the papers are most valuable.
"The role of cultural diffusion and deity belief in the formation of the early state in ancient Egypt".
The author of this article is Fu Jinshou and the source is the 6th issue of "Special Affairs Internal Reference" in 2003.
"In recent years, archaeological excavations in the Nile Delta have yielded important discoveries, which provide us with extremely valuable original materials for re-examining the formation of the ancient Egyptian state. To correctly understand the formation process of the early Egyptian state, on the one hand, we should separate Narmer and Menes..."
"Menes' role in this was not only to unify the political power from top to bottom, but also to connect the Scorpion King era in ancient Egyptian mythology with the many legacies left by the gods. He was a rare person who took into account both divine power and royal power..."
The article tells how Menes, as the king and god of Egypt, changed the entire ancient Egyptian cultural system, accommodating the polytheistic beliefs and various traditions of the Egyptian people in the past.
Menes' method of conquest was to focus on launching military wars and gradually achieve it through accepting tributes and political strategies.
[The Land of the Decisive Battle of White City] This ability is described in detail.
When Menes attacked Lower Egypt, he named the place where the two armies fought "White City". This was a use of the power of rules. He reached an agreement with his opponent and designated the White City as a medium to decide the outcome.
As long as Menes needs it, anything and every warring individual can be unfolded into the White City: a fight in a canyon, a cavalry clash on a grassland, a life-and-death struggle between warriors in a house, or even a battle between ants in a pottery jar.
At its core, it is about reshaping the form of war.
This will not only reduce the scope of the war, but also lock on the opponent.
The Battle of White City was not just one battle, but a long war that lasted for many years. At the end of each battle, the defeated side had to pay tribute to the victor.
Each tribute will strengthen the victor and weaken the loser.
One of the core abilities of [White City Decisive Battleground] is the mutual suppression brought about by the gains from victory or defeat.
As long as Menes continues to win, he will become stronger and stronger in the face of his enemies. The strong will always be stronger, and the weak will become weaker.
If he wins enough, even if Menes only sends out an ordinary soldier, this soldier will be invincible against the thousands of troops of the enemy that were defeated before.
After reading this, Lu Yao felt a little worried.
The tribute was the scarab, but the products used were from the Yao clan. Will the Yao clan be affected?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He hurriedly looked through the subsequent literature and found the second paper.
On the Influence of Horus, the Falcon God, on Ancient Egyptian Civilization
There are two signed authors: Ding Hanzhen and Zhao Lvwei.
The source is also internal reference.
In this more detailed article, some of the abilities and responsibilities of Menes, a subordinate of Horus, are described in detail.
Leaving aside the unimportant parts, the article makes two points.
One is the death of Menes, which was due to the two titles of [The Place of Decisive Battle in White City] and [The King of White and Red].
Seth, one of the Nine Pillars, the Lord of Strength, wanted to exchange for the title of Menes, but was rejected by Menes. He held a grudge against her from then on, and later seized the opportunity to transform into a hippopotamus and captured and killed Menes.
According to the records, Set still failed to obtain the title he wanted.
The acquisition of acquired titles is either a gift from the title god - such as Hillgilis in the old god's remnant dream, who asked to reveal his true name and origin.
Either it complies with the rules and requirements of the title itself - like the messenger feeding the godhood to the rooster transformed by the Dream Maker.
The article emphasizes that [White City Decisive Battle Site] is a rare growth-oriented rule.
It can further improve and diversify itself by constantly launching battles, and can also be linked or even integrated with other titles to achieve even more incredible effects.
[The King of Red and White] is related to the secrets of an earlier ancient Egyptian pioneer, the [Scorpion King], about which the outside world still knows very little.
It was because of these two reasons that Set the Navigator did not hesitate to launch a sneak attack and rob.
…
After checking the guide, Lu Yao came to a preliminary conclusion.
If the Scarab continues to appease and pay tribute like this, Dog City will really be finished.
And Menis actually set its sights on itself as a supplier, which is really intolerable.
If the scarab was killed, no one in Dog City would be able to do business with it, and the 1.8 billion flames of faith and hundreds of divine powers would be frozen.
This is a bit troublesome.
The key is that the exact location of the Dog City cannot be determined, and it is impossible to break in. The troops that can be sent there are not enough to fight against the title god Menis.
Just when Lu Yao was frowning, Charles, the messenger from Dog City, came to the temple again.
"We sincerely thank you for your honesty and quality products..."
Charles offered two divine powers as the balance of the price difference after Kebli's judgment.
Lu Yao was deeply moved and quickly put it into the prop column.
This is the most reliable proof of the friendly trade and long-term friendship between the Yao tribe and the Dog City!
The interests and security of both parties must be protected!
Lu Yao typed his opinions to Maocao, emphasizing the danger of Menis.
He conceived three strategies: the best, the middle and the worst.
The best strategy is to open the Dog City, use [Three Crossroads of the Road Goddess] to aim and bomb directly, and don't care about Menis or Janis, just use physical salvation to get rid of them.
"I'm really sorry, but that's not possible..." Charles replied.
The middle strategy is to stop paying tribute and start a tug-of-war with Menes.
Relying on the scarab's unique [Undead Sealing Mud], they gradually crushed the enemy with their numerical advantage. The hidden danger was that Menis's power was also growing rapidly at the same time, and it was hard to say who was growing faster.
Charles was silent for a moment: "If possible, can Lord Yaoshen personally help? If the crisis in Dog City can be resolved, Lord Kebli will definitely pay a reasonable and generous reward."
Seeing the feedback from the Undead Warrior, Lu Yao was helpless. Kebli didn't want to fight, or he judged that he couldn't fight.
That's the only option.
I have to go out and check the quality of Menis.
Fortunately, Charles also shared the intelligence of Dog City, saying that Menes was not the god he once was called, but just an empty shell with a head driven only by desire.
In short, it is a powerful but brainless enemy.
Lu Yao looked at the prompt bar.
It’s just a game of chess, so losing a game isn’t a big deal.
He clicks Yes.
The simulator displays immediately.
[You have accepted Menis's challenge. The battle will be held in Tribal Battle 2: Seal of the Old Gods. Please choose an agent or a god-giver.]
Huh? Lu Yao came back to his senses.
It turns out that it is not necessary for the deity to take action, and one can send subordinate gods, apostles, and even heroes and ordinary units to participate.
Speaking of playing chess, the Yao clan does have a professional.
【Chess King】Broom.
Lu Yao immediately decided to let Bulma and Menis compete first.
Thanks: Liquan supported 1500 Qidian coins.
