"Yeah." Lin Ke's face was calm and he didn't say anything, as if these things were as simple as breathing.
The Heka Masters immediately fell to their knees.
"Your Majesty the Pharaoh, with just a thought, you can cover your mortal body with divine light! This is a true miracle!"
"Great Son of Ra! Your kingship reaches the underworld, allowing the humble body to rise in an instant and glorify the palace!"
"We wish that Israel and Palestine will protect the light you have bestowed, so that the glory of Egypt will shine upon the earth once again!"
They used the most praise possible to express their surprise.
How many years has it been since a miracle occurred?
And now, it seems that a new god has been born in their Egypt?
As for Nan Tong beside Lin Ke, he was still staring at the three floating civilians, and his eyes gradually became bright.
Lin Ke had no time to pay attention to them. Instead, he looked at the words "Builder Manufacturing" displayed on the civilization panel interface with satisfaction.
This way, once the [Builders] are built, they can be immediately sent out to cut down trees!
He pulled up the map and saw that the enemies who had attacked the palace had retreated outside the capital and were gathering their forces.
There is still time!
Now the [Technology], [Municipal Affairs] and [Engineering] in the civilization panel all have projects under research. Until they are completed, there is no room for operation.
While the civilization panel was "working", he planned to check the situation near the palace first.
He walked out of the palace and looked around to see if there was anything he could do before Stonehenge was completed.
There were collapsed buildings everywhere, and some exhausted Master Heka were leaning against the wall to rest.
After ordering people to clean up the battlefield near the palace, he sent craftsmen to repair the damaged buildings.
The more buildings that can be repaired, the more cover the Heka Masters will be able to use later.
The bodies of fallen Egyptian soldiers and Master Heka were everywhere, and of course, there were also many Hebrew magicians.
Perhaps because of these corpses, the atmosphere outside the palace is different from that inside the palace.
After a life-and-death battle, even with Lin Ke's sudden appearance, everyone's morale seemed a little low.
After all, it can be said that they are almost the same as a lost country, and the enemy has even reached the royal capital!
In the era of cold weapons, low morale of soldiers was almost equivalent to a decline in or even loss of their combat effectiveness.
If the enemy attacks again, how will these exhausted soldiers pick up their spears and swords to fight back?
Morale? He frowned, but thought of a solution.
…
At night, dozens of long torches were lit in front of the palace, and the flames illuminated the dilapidated walls.
The Heka masters, dressed in white linen robes, spread a carpet on the ground to symbolize the cycle of life and death. The soldiers formed an outer circle and stood silently holding wooden shields engraved with the "Eye of Janubis" symbol.
A high priest stepped forward and lit a golden bowl filled with ointment and fig oil. The rich aroma slowly rose, as if guiding the souls of the dead to the arms of Osiris.
Nan Tong tapped the ground lightly with a scepter made of crocodile skin and chanted the Heka spell to lead the dead souls. The soldiers raised their spears to show their mourning and respect.
Amid the smoke, an old priest used a feather dipped in pomegranate juice to leave the Eye of Horus on the forehead of the mourner, symbolizing "rebirth".
Accompanied by a chorus of "May the Light of Ra protect us", everyone knelt on the ground, placed their hands on their hearts, and silently remembered the heroic souls who had died for Egypt.
By the time they stood up again, their eyes had become extremely sharp.
That’s right!
Mourning the dead is a common ritual that helps to bring people together.
Nan Tong looked at Lin Ke, and after Lin Ke nodded, he raised the crocodile leather scepter.
"Everyone, listen up - in the name of the great Pharaoh, we will watch this night with the Eye of Horus, and we will drive out the enemy with the wrath of Sekhmet! Let the heroic spirits of the dead stand shoulder to shoulder with us and swear to protect the dignity of Egypt!"
"Protect Egypt to the death! Protect our great Pharaoh!"
