Lin Ke looked at the extra red dots on the letter and soon realized something was wrong.
"Nantong, take a look at this."
Lin Ke handed the letter over, and Nan Tong hesitated for a few seconds before starting to read it.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, Lord Kamul is congratulating you on your great victory."
"I, your Majesty, would also like to congratulate you once again. If it weren't for your Majesty, I wouldn't have imagined that I would be standing on the land of the Hebrew Empire's capital today."
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh has lived for thousands of years, and..."
Nan Tong didn't seem to notice anything unusual. He just started praising Lin Ke after reading the letter.
Lin Ke just quickly raised his hand to interrupt him, otherwise this guy's words would become more and more exaggerated.
"No, that's not what I'm talking about."
"Look where Kamul signed his name."
Nan Tong raised the letter again with a slightly puzzled look: "Where is the signature?"
He frowned slightly and carefully examined the marks beside the handwriting.
As expected, Nan Tong's eyes soon widened.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"It's blood!"
Nan Tong's words were a little shocking, because that meant that those remaining red dots were most likely left by Kamul.
And just by looking carefully, you can quickly tell that the trajectories of those small blood-colored dots are in the shape of a spray.
In other words, it was coughed out by the other person.
Not only that, Lin Ke knew Kamul very well. He was a meticulous and rigorous prime minister who was extremely loyal to Lin Ke.
Then, Lin Ke took the letter and explained to Nan Tong.
"Look at these handwritings, they are crooked."
"This handwriting is slightly different from the last time Kamul wrote."
"And these red dots that are like jets."
After hearing these words, Nan Tong seemed to realize something.
He widened his eyes and continued to wait for Lin Ke's words.
"That is to say, this is not the first letter Kamul has written."
"Something may have happened to him. He was coughing and then coughed blood onto the paper."
"The distorted characters indicate that he had rewritten the text many times and had changed the papyrus many times."
"That is to say, when he wrote this letter to me, his condition had worsened."
Nan Tong was only slightly surprised when he heard Lin Ke's words. He looked at the bloodstains on the papyrus and hesitated for a few minutes before speaking again.
"But Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, why did Lord Kamul do this?"
"Also, this letter, originally intended to congratulate you, doesn't seem to convey any message."
When Lin Ke heard Nan Tong's words, he just shook his head slightly.
"No."
"I've already written a letter to Kamul celebrating my great victory over Holy Egypt."
"This is the second time. This shows that Kamul is working too hard and his body has problems."
"It seems like he's congratulating Holy Egypt on its great victory, but in reality, he's telling me that Holy Egypt needs me to return and take charge."
"And the reason he kept changing the papyrus was probably because he didn't want me to know it was because of his illness. That would make him feel that he was a burden to me."
Nan Tong nodded in sudden realization. He was shocked by Lin Ke's analysis just now.
After all, he had rarely seen methods that could infer something based on handwriting and bloodstains.
"But Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, if that's the case, couldn't Lord Kamul have someone else write for him?"
"Wouldn't that allow him to completely conceal the fact that he was getting sicker?"
Lin Ke did not respond immediately after hearing Nan Tong's words.
He just looked at the bloodstains, his expression looking particularly solemn.
"I recognize his handwriting, Nan Tong."
"If someone else had written it, Kamul knew I would be suspicious."
"If there were no problems with Kamul and Saint Egypt, why would he hire someone to write for him?"
"That's more worrying than these barely perceptible bloodstains on the papyrus."
Lin Ke said this and sighed softly.
"We must get the army moving as soon as possible. Holy Egypt is currently short of population, and almost half of our people have become part of the logistics force or the Holy Egypt army."
"Only by allowing them to return to Holy Egypt as soon as possible and engage in normal life and production can Holy Egypt get back on track."
"In this war, we did not initiate any looting, so the resources and population we could obtain were very limited."
"Although we paid a huge price, at least we gained long-term stability on the border and made new allies and religious civilizations."
"For me, Holy Egypt, this is more than enough."
Nan Tong nodded vigorously, and then immediately half-knelt on the ground.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"I will go and prepare now."
"The army has made preparations in advance according to your previous instructions."
"The Holy Egyptian Alliance awaits your instructions at any time."
Lin Ke nodded, and then Nan Tong immediately turned and left. He went to inform several leaders of the Holy Egyptian Alliance.
At this time, Lin Ke opened the civilization panel and made the final confirmation.
There were no more signs indicating "enemy" within Jerusalem or within the army's field of vision.
And most of the armies were indeed prepared as Nan Tong said. Atlantis, Amazon, Aztec, and Maya had already assembled their armies.
As for special armies like the Witches and Demons Association that are not displayed on the civilization panel, there is no need to worry, because Lin Ke saw the succubus set off early in the morning.
Simply put, all Lin Ke has to do now is to give orders and then let the Holy Egyptian Alliance army return to the court.
Lin Ke nodded in satisfaction. The war with the Hebrew Empire had finally come to an end.
He was finally able to return to Cairo and live the peaceful and stable life he had before.
Build "wonders", research technology, greatly improve the productivity of Holy Egypt, and prepare for the arrival of the next era.
"The Next Age: The Medieval Era."
Lin Ke looked at the information on the civilization panel. At present, there was still a lot of time left in the golden age of Holy Egypt.
However, because it was the golden age, Lin Ke's logistics were able to continue to provide food and weapons for the entire Holy Egyptian Alliance.
Without strong logistical support, it would be a fantasy to defeat the Hebrew Empire.
Lin Ke continued to check the messages on the civilization panel, and he found that the number of signs marked as "enemy" on the border of Holy Egypt had decreased a lot.
Apart from the low loyalty of a few Holy Egyptian cities returned by the Hebrew Empire, there were no major problems.
However, in addition to these, there is another anomaly on the civilization panel.
That was in the city of Hebron.
