This place is called the Aswan Market, and there are many spices in it that Du Yuqi has never seen or even heard of! Truck after truck is loaded with spices of lotus, rose, lily, lavender, and violet, which are calculated by tons. Not only that, many well-known French perfume manufacturers use the spices here to make their perfumes.

There are also perfume shops of all sizes here, adhering to the ancient production method with a history of more than 3,000 years. The petals are wrapped in cloth, and two people twist the petals continuously to squeeze out the natural flower juice, filter it, and process it. It is said that a 6-ounce bottle of perfume requires 120,000 flowers to make.

Originally, Du Yuqi was dismissive of these things, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered Sister Mei's soft body, her mesmerizing faint fragrance, her rosy cheeks, and her straight legs in the narrow car that day... He walked in as if possessed. Among the dazzling array of various exquisite perfumes, he stopped in front of a perfume called "Tutankhamun".

Du Yuqi's eyes fell on the English words on the nameplate next to it:

"When our bodies turn to dust in the desert and our souls return to the gods of Thebes, my love for you will be like the fragrance of Tutankhamun, which will not change in the past four thousand years."

At this moment, Du Yuqi's heart suddenly seemed to be hit hard, and then he simply paid for the bottle of perfume.

Two days later, Du Yuqi returned home safely.

After returning to school, he gave the gifts to his classmates one by one, and then went to inquire about Senior Sister Mei's whereabouts. Unfortunately, he found that Senior Sister Mei still had not returned to school, just like before he left. After hearing the news, Du Yuqi stood there in a daze for more than ten minutes, feeling lost, and then left with a sigh.

After that, he felt a bit bored and thought he needed to find something to do, so he went to work in a Taekwondo gym. When the boss saw Du Yuqi, who was arguably the best human sandbag in the store, his eyes immediately lit up and he called several old customers, because these people all reported that they were most comfortable when Du Yuqi was their sparring partner, and that they could just hit him however hard he wanted and have fun.

…

Senior Mei's sudden disappearance did not cause Du Yuqi too much trouble. The previous one or two years of being a spare tire had made him accustomed to setbacks. Therefore, he quickly got over the melancholy of Senior Mei not coming to school. Then, while attending classes, he tried to find items that might carry the power of time.

He is now very eager to grow and become strong!

Du Yuqi had previously ventured on the continent of Arad in order to avenge his good friend. However, perhaps even he himself did not notice that the growth of his strength had caused the ambitions deep in his heart to slowly grow!

Three days later, Du Yuqi, who was in class, suddenly felt a shock all over his body, and immediately felt a sharp pain in his chest as if he had been burned by a red-hot iron! He groaned and instinctively covered his chest.

Fortunately, the severe pain came and went quickly, lasting only one or two seconds before disappearing, but Du Yuqi could also clearly feel that this was not an illusion, and that some subtle changes must have occurred in his chest.

So he simply stood up, raised his hand and reported that he had a stomachache and had to go to the toilet or he would poop in his pants. Then he went to the bathroom under the disgusted and sneering eyes of a group of people. After closing the bathroom door, Du Yuqi even simply tore open his shirt on his chest, and two buttons fell off with a snap. Then he saw that the red mark on his chest was gone, and instead there was a strange mark, which was a pattern of two overlapping triangles, which looked very much like a tattoo.

Since Du Yuqi became a summoned creature, he had a birthmark-like red mark on his chest, which was the mark of becoming a believer of the God of Contract. At this time, the shape of the mark changed, and Du Yuqi naturally deduced that it was related to his believer level being upgraded to silver (one star).

Thinking of this, Du Yuqi's spirits suddenly lifted:

"Could it be that my exclusive altar has already evolved?"

Sure enough, Du Yuqi's reasoning was not wrong. About ten minutes later, Du Yuqi, who was standing next to the lotus pond in the college, suddenly saw a blur in front of his eyes, and then an altar slowly appeared in front of him.

If the previous beast claw altar was full of traces of primitive barbarism, then this altar is built with neatly stacked stones, combining the construction features of China's Temple of Heaven, Egypt's pyramids, and America's Aztec pyramids. Such a mixed building appears grand and majestic.

At the same time, although the altar appears a bit rough because it is made of stone, the piled-up stones create an atmosphere of solemnity, piety, civilization, and order. The difference between the two is huge.

To put it simply, the original beast claw altar is like the primitive stage of human beings, where they ate raw meat and drank blood, and struggled hard. Whether it was thunder and lightning or fire and floods, they would make primitive people extremely awed.

But at this time, the stone altar showed signs of civilization, and the sparks of civilization were distributed among tribes large and small. Under the organized hunting of humans, wild beasts began to fear and became prey, and the most basic beliefs began to emerge.

Then, a series of prompts appeared again.

Pastor Du, you have now successfully been promoted to a Silver (one-star) follower of the God of Contract. You will receive the following privileges.

You will have the privilege of viewing and identifying the simple information of the sacrifices offered by the summoner, and you can also further obtain detailed information about their sacrifices. However, if you try to obtain detailed information, only the first two times a day are free (this privilege will increase with the improvement of your believer's rank, it is not cumulative, and it is refreshed at midnight every day). If you want to continue using this privilege, it may consume Holy Crown.

You have gained the privilege of having a follower. You can designate a creature as your follower. A mysterious connection will be established between you and the creature. You can summon the creature instantly when you need it. However, it takes two Holy Crowns to open the privilege of a follower. At the same time, every time you summon a follower, one Holy Crown will be consumed.

You must make the creature willing to serve as your follower. At the same time, even if you consume Holy Crown to summon the follower, the follower can still refuse your call.
