Chapter 548 Naihe (Two in One)

[Divine Scroll - Protection Rune: After active activation, a shield can be generated to absorb the next (120) points of damage (self-professional level * 20), which lasts for 10 seconds, and the rune disappears after use. Parts that can be engraved: Tops. 】

[Divine Scroll - Awakening Rune: After active activation, you can get the effect of awakening, immediately remove the current abnormal state and control effect, and gain 35% toughness for 10 seconds, and the rune will disappear after use. This effect does not stack with other resilience effects. Parts that can be engraved: the head. 】

(Toughness refers to the ability to control reduction and reduction, such as Bai Xiaowen's sincere heart passive.)

[Scroll of Divine Art - Quick Step Rune: After active activation, you can get a movement speed bonus, increasing the movement speed by 60%, lasting for 10 seconds, and the rune disappears after use. During this period, you are immune to the slowing effect of priority (7) or lower (including 7). Parts that can be engraved: feet. 】

...

"This... should be regarded as enchanting. They are all runes engraved on the equipment. Once used, they are the hole cards that can turn the tables." Bai Xiaowen said.

"These things are very useful, but it's a pity that they will disappear after one use, and the price is relatively expensive..." Li Shuyi said.

Indeed, these divine runes are not cheap. The cheapest rune of sobriety needs 2000 merit points, and the rune of protection needs 3000 merit points!

"If the rune can be used continuously after the inscription, it will be far more than a few thousand merit points, tens of thousands are possible," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "A normal awakener team, in the ancient Egyptian plane, would like to save a few It's hard to make a thousand meritorious deeds, let alone tens of thousands... It's no fun seeing that you can't get it, the rules of the spirit world won't be so boring."

After a pause, Bai Xiaowen looked at the merit value page of the team: "We are in the ancient Egyptian plane, and we have accumulated 6408 merit points so far. We can buy two to three magical runes. Let's choose one first."

Of the more than 6,000 points of merit, 4,500 points are mission rewards, and nearly 2,000 points are rewards for killing enemies in this day's intense battle. Although a war with tens of thousands of people is difficult, the rewards are also very rich.

"Xiaowen, should I choose the lucid rune?" Li Shuyi asked softly.

Awakening Rune only needs 2000 Merit, and it is an additional means of removing control. The cost performance is indeed very high, and it is mainly used in the battle of the Awakened.

For example, when playing league matches and personal battles, Li Shuyi faced long-range professions such as mages and shooters, and if she had an extra control method, her chances of winning would greatly increase.

Apart from Qinglianzi (priority 6), Li Shuyi only has a blue accessory solar eclipse badge (priority 4), which is not very useful. She thought about it, and felt that she needed a 7-point priority release.

Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "Don't choose this. From now on, we will fight side by side, with team skills to pull, butcher's hook, and my fixed-point airdrop... The most important thing is the bone magician's Huang Tian skill." , itself is a 7-point priority release."

"As for the CUAA league, with the defensive mode, there should be fewer individual battles, and team battles are still the main one. And even if it happens once... it's not worth spending a magic rune on you."

Li Shuyi nodded, and she finally chose the "Reflection" rune with a price of 3000 merit points.

[Spell Scroll-Reflection Rune: After active activation, you can get the reflection effect, and the next single spell directed at you will be reflected, returning to the caster. The rune disappears after use. Engraved part: top/shield. 】

Although both parts can be engraved with reflective runes, but divine spell runes are unique, and it is impossible to engrave two identical runes at the same time.

Li Shuyi doesn't need a shield anyway, just engraving a jacket is enough.

Bai Xiaowen chose the "Phantom Strike" rune, which has a very special effect. After activation, the next physical attack of a single target will trigger the Phantom Strike effect, and a phantom will appear to copy the current attack and special effects, and the attack speed will increase by 20% within 10 seconds. . The rune is inscribed on the hand.

After acquiring the two divine runes, each took 10 seconds to inscribe.

After engraving, strange symbols and characters appeared on the equipment, shining with a slight light. Fortunately, the light of the divine spell rune, like the quality light and enhancement level light of the equipment itself, can be hidden by choice.

With the remaining several hundred merit points, Bai Xiaowen bought a few bottles of "filtered Nile water". Although this thing is rather tasteless, it will have miraculous effects under certain circumstances.

Bai Xiaowen then took out a bottle of "Alpine Wurm Power Potion".

The purity of this level 10 medicine is as high as 97%. According to the calculation formula of medicine addition, the theoretical 5 points of strength multiplied by 97% purity will increase the strength value by 4.85. According to the rounding principle, the final power of 0.85 will be converted into a percentage probability.

When Bai Xiaowen drank this bottle of potion, there was an 85% chance that he would get a full 5 points of basic strength enhancement, and another 15% chance that he would only be strengthened by 4 points.

Bai Xiaowen's mental willpower is now much stronger than before. The pain value of the third bottle of potion is not enough to break his willpower, and he successfully survived the strengthening process. The final result was also relatively smooth, without the 15% chance of triggering a black face.

At this time, Bai Xiaowen's basic strength has reached 24 points, basic agility, and basic physique 23, which have fully met the equipment requirements for the "Commander's Cloak". He then replaced the Tribal Feather cloak with this great cloak.

The appearance of this cloak itself is very domineering. The high collar and wide shoulders not only cover the back, but also cover the shoulders together. When the arms are naturally drooping, the hands cannot be seen, adding a touch of BOSS atmosphere.

This is a bit like the shape of the "Justice" army coat that Bai Xiaowen once watched in the anime "One Piece", which will not fall off behind the admiral, except that two sleeves are missing.

"It looks good." Little stars appeared in Li Shuyi's eyes.

"Well, I finally got rid of that primitive cloak..." Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "Let's go to the Ptah Legion and start working."

"Is it the investigation of Silent Tongue? Starting from the Ptah Legion?" Li Shuyi followed in Bai Xiaowen's footsteps, "Do you think Silent Tongue is really a traitor, colluding with Sammet?"

Bai Xiaowen said: "That's not necessarily the case. However, I think if I were Sammet, if I wanted to fight against the Pharaoh with a stable regime, I would have to unite the depressed sects, families and officials in Egypt, which may have something to do with the silent tongue Contact, at least you should know some information, right?"

After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again: "Since the pharaoh asked for an unannounced visit, we are not allowed to ask Sammet directly, so let's go to the Ptah Legion and find out the most trusted cronies of Sammet for interrogation."

Ptah regiment garrison.

"Hi, Dio, my friend. I'm so busy right now that I don't have time to entertain you."

General Samp, who was "rescued" from the Hittite army by Bai Xiaowen in disguise, is now the commander of Ptah's army, and he gave Bai Xiaowen a warm hug when he came up.

"It's okay, Samp..." Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "First of all, congratulations on your promotion, and I'm also here on business this time."

Bai Xiaowen showed the pharaoh's golden token.

Samp's face changed slightly, and he was even more polite to Bai Xiaowen. He waved back a few guards and said, "Tell me, my friend, what do you need me to do?"

It seems that the effectiveness of this pharaoh's token is more effective than imagined.

Bai Xiaowen put away the token: "In Putah's army, there should be 'that person' cronies, right?"

Samp said in a low voice: "Yes, the first thing I did when I joined the Putah Legion was to control them all... on the charge of delaying the military plane. The best result waiting for these disloyal people is endless Hard labor, or send them directly to Osiris."

Sure enough, Pharaoh sent his confidant general here just to carry out a big cleansing. This cleansing will certainly damage the vitality of the Ptah Legion, but a legion that is absolutely loyal to him is what Pharaoh wants to see.

The pharaoh did not show mercy when dealing with Sammet. First, he deprived the army of power, then cut off the wings of the army, and then cleaned up the supporters in the country...

When Sammet was cornered and tried to give it a go, it would be too late.

Bai Xiaowen shook his head, ignoring the grievances between the superficial brothers, and said instead: "I need to interrogate these people. Who are the highest-ranking people among them?"

"Let me take a look at the list..."

Samp picked up a piece of papyrus from the stone table, and pointed to one of the names: "The commander of the fourth formation is named...Zehu Dinakht, and his two lieutenants. Do you want to Shall I send two experienced people to interrogate you?"

Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "No need."

This Commander Zehu is the boss of the chariot commander that Bai Xiaowen cut into. Now Bai Xiaowen has turned into the Pharaoh's confidant Jin Yiwei. Even the army commander has to be treated politely, but Mr. Zehu has become a prisoner.

When Bai Xiaowen captured the Hittite scouts, Zehu refused Bai Xiaowen's request to meet the army commander. Bai Xiaowen originally thought he was trying to claim credit. But now it seems that things are not necessarily so simple.

"Yuan, it's too wonderful."

When Zehu saw Bai Xiaowen, he didn't think there was any fate between him and Bai Xiaowen... Even if there was, it would be a bad fate...

The interrogation process went smoothly. Commander Zehu had no intention of being loyal to the lost master Sammet. Regarding the question raised by Bai Xiaowen, he almost said it out of a bamboo tube.

In order to "treat with leniency", Zehu even told everything that Bai Xiaowen didn't ask, really without reservation.

It's a pity that Zehu is not the "core person" Bai Xiaowen is looking for - although he has the highest military rank among Sammet's cronies, his degree of trust is far lower than that of Sammet's cronies.

Zehu basically knew nothing about who Sammet had befriended in Egypt and what contact he had with the Hittites.

However, Zehu provided a clue.

"Lord Dior, although I don't know about it, I know that someone definitely knows!"

It was a bit of a mouthful, but Bai Xiaowen still understood: "Who is it?"

"He is called Naihe, and he was born as a slave of Sammet, but he is very trusted by Sammet. In many cases, he is the one who passes on Sammet's orders, including doing some shady things." Zehu said Speaking of this man named Naihe, I feel quite aggrieved.

Bai Xiaowen nodded, walked out of the interrogation room, and found the new army chief Samp again:

"In the list, is there a guy named Nahe? Although he is a slave, he is Sammet's most valued confidant, and he must know a lot of secrets."

Samp looked at the list carefully, shook his head and said, "No...only those with military ranks are recorded here."

Samp did his best and cooperated with Bai Xiaowen to search the entire Ptah barracks, but no trace of Naihe was found.

"It seems that he has escaped, this guy is by no means a simple slave..."

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes, "We must report to Pharaoh, and immediately launch a city-wide search, in the name of arresting escaped slaves."

"Will this act as a warning and cause him to abscond?"

Bai Xiaowen held a piece of paper in his hand and browsed through Naihe's background information.

"I just want him to escape!"

...

The ancient kingdom of Egypt was bordered by the Red Sea in the east, the Mediterranean Sea in the north, the dangerous shoal of the Nile River in the south, and the endless desert in the west. Only the Sinai Peninsula in the northeast was adjacent to West Asia.

This is why the Egyptian pharaoh valued the hegemony of the Syrian region. The geographical location of the ancient Egyptian kingdom led to its natural isolation, and it was in great need of trade and exchanges with West Asia.

In the Nile Delta area, that is, near the city of Memphis in "Lower Egypt", there is a small village called "The Village of Im".

The name of this village comes from an ancient man named "Imhotep". It was this man who invented a new construction method and had the prototype of the pyramid. Since then, pharaohs of all generations have begun to build pyramid mausoleums for themselves with great fanfare.

A slender white-robed man rode an inconspicuous skinny horse to the entrance of Im's Village.

He got off his horse and looked at the sparse wooden and stone houses, as well as the rising smoke, with an unconcealable joy on his dusty face.

Leading the horse, the slender man walked all the way to the end of the village, in front of a dilapidated wooden house.

The wooden house has been abandoned for a long time, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated. There are cobwebs on the door frame, and it seems that no one has lived in it for a long time.

The lanky man let out a long sigh. He tied his horses to a side gatepost and took off his robes to clean.

"who is it?"

Suddenly, the slender man straightened up vigilantly, and his eagle-like eyes swept over.

"Are you Naihe? You came so late, we have been waiting for you for a day."

After the deserted wooden house, the two turned out.

"It's you..." Naihe's eyes narrowed slightly. These two people, they caught the Hittite scouts and destroyed the two key figures in the master Sammet's event, the chariot commander Dio and his deputy captain. !

However, the panic was covered up in an instant, and Naihe regained his composure:

"You have misunderstood the person. My name is not Naihe, my name is..."

"No need to quibble, Naihe. I have a very good memory. Although I just glanced at it, I will not remember you wrong when you stood beside the commander of the Sammet army." Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our Reading Academy
