"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"You... you actually visited this remote city like Marsa Matruh."
"It is my subordinates' fault for not doing their job well. Your Majesty, the Holy Pharaoh, please punish me!"
At this time, the leader of the kneeling guards prostrated himself on the ground and spoke.
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent.
Apart from the earth-shaking shouts and cries of killing outside the city of Matruh, no other sound could be heard.
Some of Matruh's soldiers also saw Linke's appearance clearly. They knew very well what the double crowns on Linke's head and the Pharaoh's staff in his hand meant.
He is the supreme monarch of Holy Egypt and the supreme leader of the Holy Egyptian Alliance.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh..."
"How is this possible... His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh would actually come to this remote place..."
Many of Matruh's soldiers opened their eyes wide, and then they slowly lowered their heads.
As for the archers on the city walls, they wished they could bury their heads in the ground.
"I believe that you will be able to complete the task I assign to you."
"You have defended the glory of Holy Egypt."
"However, each of you is an outstanding warrior. I hope that you will die at the hands of the enemy."
"Instead of dying at the hands of one's own people."
Lin Ke raised his head at this time, and wherever his eyes looked, it was as if an invisible mountain was smashing down on the Matruh soldiers.
All the Matruh people bowed deeply, their foreheads pressed tightly to the ground.
However, only one person still raised his head. He looked at Lin Ke, and saliva was even flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Holy Pharaoh?"
“Haha…hahaha!”
The steward uttered crazy words at this time. It seemed that his eyes could not even focus. His two eyeballs just looked at each other. However, from a distance, it seemed as if he was looking at Lin Ke.
“Bold!”
"How dare you disrespect His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
Nan Tong was casting magic at this time, and the steward immediately let out a few painful howls.
Then, one of his arms twisted and rolled, like a rag that was tightened, twisting continuously, and finally burst, and the blood and flesh all turned into sand.
"ah--"
The steward wailed in pain a few times, then fell heavily to the ground with a "bang", completely losing consciousness.
Lin Ke raised his head and spoke slowly.
"Come here, control the lord of Matruh first."
The guards immediately rushed to the city wall and tied up the lord of Matruh in no time.
Under Nan Tong's magical power, no one did anything out of line. Of course, even if Nan Tong did not use magical power at this moment, no one would dare to do anything out of line.
"People of Matruh."
"I am the Holy Pharaoh of Holy Egypt."
"The situation in Matruh is complicated. I will explain it to you personally later."
"Time is running out. The Vikings are approaching Marsa Matruh. I need you to do a few things for me."
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, many people in the city frowned in confusion.
Apparently, this was the first time they had heard the term "Vikings".
Although they did not know which specific ethnic group the "Vikings" represented, they all knew very well that what His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh was referring to at this moment was the invading enemy.
"All archers, ascend the city walls."
"All Matruh warriors, deploy your forces according to the guards' instructions. Your job is to guard all the gates of Matruh and prevent any Vikings from breaching them."
"All citizens of the city should gather in the center of the city, away from the city walls!"
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, Nan Tong immediately released his magic. Then, the people in the city did not scream and run away as Lin Ke had imagined.
In Lin Ke's opinion, the people in these remote cities might show fear when facing foreign invasion, so he thought that after they understood the current situation, they would scream and run away.
However, the people of the city of Matruh slowly stood up at this time. They all bowed slightly, lowered their heads, and looked towards where Lin Ke was from time to time.
They seemed to be more interested in Lin Ke, or rather, Lin Ke's arrival surprised them more than those outsiders.
Lin Ke raised his eyebrows slightly at this time.
yes!
This is the border city of Holy Egypt. Judging from its history, this city has suffered many invasions by foreign enemies, so they are no longer surprised by the invading enemies.
In other words, those who still choose to stay in the city of Marsa Matruh are simply accustomed to this kind of scene.
After all, although this city belonged to Holy Egypt, it had been ruled by the Hebrew Empire for a long time before.
Some of the people in the city were even Hebrews.
"Is that really... His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh?"
"The Holy Pharaoh of Holy Egypt actually came here in person?"
Several people spoke softly, but their voices were as small as mosquitoes and could not be heard clearly.
However, at this moment, several older men looked at Lin Ke and began to tremble.
"Holy Law...Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"Your Majesty, the noble and great Holy Pharaoh, actually came to the city of Marsa Matruh in person?!"
"His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh has come to this remote city in person!"
“Ah—ah!”
"How could I, such a lowly person, be able to witness the holy face of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh in this lifetime!"
"I can actually see gods and the great magician!"
"It's not a pity to die, it's not a pity to die!"
"puff--"
The old man's words became more and more excited. Lin Ke widened his eyes slightly. He just looked at the old man, whose body was shaking more and more violently as if he had been electrocuted.
In the end, he actually vomited a mouthful of blood with a smile, and fell to the ground with a "thump".
Lin Ke had seen many fanatical "believers" who admired and respected him, but this was the first time he had seen someone die of vomiting blood after seeing his true face and body.
However, people didn't even care about the old man who died of vomiting blood. Their eyes were still on Lin Ke.
Not only that, Lin Ke discovered that the number of people expressing their admiration began to increase.
Several more old men showed reactions similar to being electrocuted!
Lin Ke widened his eyes slightly.
This can't go on any longer!
Otherwise, casualties would have already begun to occur in the city before the enemy even broke through the city walls!
Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?
"Nantong."
Lin Ke spoke softly at this time, and Nan Tong's voice immediately spread throughout the city like thunder and lightning.
"Obey the orders of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"All citizens of Matruh, act now!"
