But the gift of death is an unattainable luxury.
Now, he, the second prince, can actually receive a gift?
And his eldest brother actually gave up the gift of death, choosing instead to suffer on the throne?
The second prince could not describe his inner feelings, he just felt touched.
"Nantong, you will temporarily take over as my brother's personal magician. You must deliver him safely and protect him to complete the 'Gift'."
After saying that, Lin Ke immediately asked his personal guard to call for a simple carriage to escort the second prince away.
Then he immediately turned around and ordered the few personal guards left by his brother:
"All of you, follow me into the palace!"
…
The main hall of the palace was originally the most solemn place for the coronation ceremony, and the walls were covered with murals of gods and pharaohs.
However, at this moment, looking around, the stone floor had completely cracked, the jewel sculptures around the gilded doors and windows were smashed to pieces, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of burnt fire.
Dozens of Hebrew magicians were engaged in a fierce battle with the Egyptian Masters of Heka. Flames, wind, sand, and thunderous explosions came one after another, shattering the originally solemn and quiet hall.
Lin Ke tried to cross the war zone with only a few guards.
"Protect the eldest prince!"
"Kill! For Pharaoh!"
The two of them joined forces, one in front and one behind, to clear a path for Lin Ke.
In front, the Heka masters also saw Lin Ke appear.
"The Great Prince has arrived! We cannot let the Hebrews prevent our great and most powerful Pharaoh from being crowned!"
"Stand tall and don't let the evil fire of the Hebrews get close to the holy body of our noble prince!"
They shouted, as if burning their last will, raised the crocodile eggshells high, and poured out wave after wave of Heka's secret magic.
Several Hebrew magicians were shocked and retreated repeatedly, but they continued to wave their staffs, releasing flames to fight back, making the entire palace seem like it was in hell.
Lin Ke's face was solemn. He seized the opportunity, ran quickly, and directed the guards to cooperate with Master Heka, and rushed to the vicinity of the throne.
The stone throne that symbolized royal power was now covered in dust and debris, and the gorgeous carvings were somewhat damaged.
But on it were placed two crowns formed by the union of two crowns - the white crown and the red crown, quietly waiting for their new owner in the firelight and smoke.
The white crown represents Upper Egypt, and the red crown represents Lower Egypt.
The two combined into one form the symbol of the Egyptian pharaoh's authority - the red and white crown.
He raised his head to look at the battle scenes around him, and saw another Egyptian Heka Master being hit by flames not far away, and he let out a scream.
This is their belief, what they are defending with their flesh and blood.
Lin Ke resolutely picked up the crown, put it together and put it on his head.
Then he grabbed the crooked staff that symbolized Pharaoh's power and raised it with all his strength, declaring loudly:
"I, the 18th generation to restore the glory of Ra! I now wear the red and white crowns, hold up the king's staff in the midst of war, and am crowned as Pharaoh!"
"I swear with my soul and blood to protect the dignity of Egypt..."
"The glory of the Nile and the Pyramids will never fade!"
