Chapter 681
Her agricultural policy has made people's lives more and more prosperous, and everyone praises the greatness of Pharaoh.
And now, the great pharaoh finally wants to lead them together to reconquer this chaotic kingdom and restore the glory of the kingdom of God.
Beside the pharaoh is a rather handsome man.
Although he was on a chariot, he was not wearing any armor, but a gorgeous white dress, which was said to possess great power and mystery, which even the gods could not see through.
He is a great sage from a foreign country, and it is said that he is also the lover of Pharaoh, Lord Thoth.
It is said that this lord has wisdom comparable to the gods, and at the same time he has a powerful force called "magic". With wisdom and strength, this lord assisted Pharaoh and established the glory of Memphis today.
Many people say that the pharaoh was able to rise again under the influence of corrupt officials, except for the trial from Horus, it was due to the help of this sage. It is said that many new policies and technologies came from this The advice of a sage, and many officials in the court have also been taught by this sage to become excellent officials.
So far in the court, many officials still call him a teacher.
In the eyes of the soldiers, the Great Sage Thoth is naturally a great person second only to Pharaoh Nitocris.
Seeing the two finally appear, the soldiers spontaneously raised their weapons and cheered loudly.
Oh, by the way, the weapons in their hands are also credited to Lord Thoth.
Although the original Egyptian civilization was developed, it lagged far behind other civilizations in terms of smelting technology and weapon technology.
For example, for a long time, Egypt has been using bronze weapons, and the types of weapons are mostly duckbill axes, war hammers, daggers, and spears.
Most of the armor is simple leather armor. Some soldiers will wear leather clothes and carry leather shields, but most people usually just wear a pair of leather shorts, and even go to the front line almost naked.
For example, Egyptian archers still use simple straight-drawn bows. The bows and arrows used use reeds as arrow shafts, and the arrowheads are made of bronze. They are only effective at short distances, and their accuracy is quite limited.
However, the arrival of Ye Ting finally brought different changes to the Egyptian army.
The new smelting technology has brought sharper and stronger weapons, as well as metal armor-now the pharaoh's guard in the forefront is an army of full metal armor, and other levies also have complete leather armor. Armor is no longer naked, and more advanced bows and arrows like horn bows and recurve bows are also equipped in the army.
When such an army equipped with new weapons faced other "Nome" armies, it must have been a massacre.
In addition, there is a more powerful force in the army of Memphis.
Chapter 0842 Nitocris's mage group
In the phalanx of Egyptian warriors wearing armor and holding sharp knives, there is such an army.
Everyone in this army was strangely not wearing any armor, nor did they hold any sharp weapons.
Contrary to other soldiers, they all wore soft and loose robes and held a seemingly gorgeous but incapable scepter in their hands. They did not carry any quiver, but one by one. The only special thing about scrolls made of papyrus is that the paper quality of these scrolls is obviously much better than ordinary papyrus.
Although these guys who are incompatible with normal fighters are not many in number, they are still in the ranks of fighters majestically, and judging from their positions, their status is not low.
These people are not clerks or military supervisors in the army, nor are they logistics personnel, but the real main combat personnel. In Nitocris's vision, they should be the battlefield in the war They are the real source of confidence for Nitocris to launch the unification war.
They are all magicians who have practiced Egyptian rune spells.
And this army with only dozens of people is the war mage group under Nitocris, and it is also the only mage group in Egypt.
Yes, in today's Egypt, there are finally mages who have undergone systematic study and have a clear inheritance and knowledge system.
And their magic obviously came from Ye Ting.
As a mage who traveled thousands of miles to Egypt to collect local special spells, Ye Ting did not forget his fundamental purpose after helping Nitocris regain power.
So, after Nitocris stabilized the situation a bit, Ye Ting devoted himself to the study of Egyptian rune spells—or in other words, divine rune spells, and focused on converting divine runes into magic spells. runes.
Of course, this process will be quite long, and it cannot be completed in one or two years.
The main god of Egypt is the Nine Pillars God. Through their priests, Ye Ting can obtain enough materials to allow him to transform a large number of magic runes—although many of them are flashy things, at least they can give He's a great inspiration.
And the gods of Egypt are not included in the Nine Pillars.
In fact, in addition to the nine-pillar belief that covers the whole of Egypt, every city and every Nome in Egypt has its own indigenous patron saint—in fact, the future will replace the Egyptian nine-pillar god and become Heli. The god Amon, the new ruler of Opolis, was the native god of Thebes, the capital of Egypt at that time.
There are so many gods in Egypt, so many magical runes waiting for Ye Ting to collect
, so even for this purpose, the unification of Egypt was clearly necessary.
Before that, Ye Ting began to train his assistants.
After all, sorting out all kinds of runes, transforming magic runes, and establishing the Egyptian magic system by himself was indeed a huge and cumbersome task. He felt that he needed to find some assistants.
Nitocris is a pretty good choice, this female pharaoh has an extraordinary talent for magic, but the only problem is, she is too busy.
Although Nitocris herself is indeed a powerful mage, but her main occupation is pharaoh, and being able to find time to learn magic is the limit of what she can do. Naturally, it is impossible for Ye Ting to disturb her and let her devote herself to the study of magic Work.
Thus, Ye Ting began to imitate the example of Nitocris, looking for people with magical talents in various temples in Memphis to learn Egyptian rune magic, and to serve as his assistants in the future.
Incidentally, in the "Great Judgment", in addition to the officials, many priests of the Nine Pillars Temple in Memphis were also the targets of the trial. They abused the name of representing God's will, or colluded with the officials At the same time, or by means of intimidation and deception against believers, they have amassed a lot of wealth.
But in today's Memphis Temple, those in charge of the power are some pious priests and newcomers who were unsuccessful in the past.
In the eyes of these people, Ye Ting and Nitocris are undoubtedly fierce - the tragedy of their predecessor being sacrificed to Sobek is still vivid in his memory.
So when Ye Ting picked someone from among them, they naturally couldn't refuse.
However, although Nitocris, a genius of rune magic, can quickly master rune magic, it doesn't mean that every priest who can use rune magic can be like her...
The talents required for divine arts and magic are actually different.
For example, divine magic requires piety, and divine magic runes may also require sufficient intelligence, but all magicians need are truly high-IQ talents without exception. It would be even better if the innate magic circuit is sufficiently developed.
Obviously, not every priest could meet Ye Ting's request.
However, one thing is certain is that there are indeed a lot of high-IQ talents from Egypt gathered in the temple, so Ye Ting selected hundreds of guys who can become magic apprentices.
Among them, only a dozen or so were the original priests of the temple, and most of them were orphans who were adopted by the temple and served the temple.
These people just followed Ye Ting to learn rune magic in the underground palace of the palace.
That's right, this underground palace was exactly the palace that Nitocris built for revenge, but because of Ye Ting's help, she didn't need to use the method that almost killed her to get revenge. This underground palace lost its meaning, so Nitocris handed it over to Ye Ting.
"Since you have saved me and my future, let this ominous palace of my original tragic future be entrusted to you—make good use of it, let it have a real effect, as if you changed me fate."
In this way, Ye Ting became the owner of this place, and this place became his magic workshop, his laboratory, and his classroom.
And these people became his apprentices, learning magic theory and Egyptian magic runes from him here every day.
Those of them who were originally priests became teaching assistants. Because these people have the foundation of rune magic, they are learning rune magic much faster, and most of these people are adults, so they have the ability to learn rune magic. Take care of others.
So, with the help of these people, the teenagers with magical talents quickly grew up and became qualified magic apprentices. In the past, they were orphans adopted by temples in various parts of Egypt, and they were reserve talents for priests. , they do have this talent.
The Egyptian war mage group was established on the basis of these people.
