I Was a Priest in the City-State Era

Chapter 311: Sekhmet's Pantheon

After all, this is not the first time Sekhmet has become the protector of the country.

Looking at the gods gathered in front of him, Sekhmet not only looked calm, but also observed the gods carefully and found that compared to a hundred years ago, there was no Buba controlled by the Hyksos in front of him. Bastetto, the patron saint of the city of Stis, Seth, the native Egyptian storm god, and the sun god Ra who were confused with Seth [Zeus], ​​as well as Ptah, the patron saint of the city of Memphis, and the patron saint of the sun city who were kicked off the patron saint's seat. Gods such as Atum, Hentihti, the patron saint of Atrebis, and Amon, the patron saint of Thebes.

After retracting his gaze to observe the gods, Sekhmet spoke loudly in a majestic tone.

"It makes me as happy as I was four hundred years ago to see you respond to my call as you did a hundred years ago. Now I ask you to swear allegiance to me as you did four hundred years ago and become a pillar of my pantheon. Oh. I promise not to shake your throne as a patron saint. Even gods without a throne can still be based in Egypt as gods of faith."

Sekhmet did not ask the gods to become his subordinate gods.

Because just like the Pharaoh can only be the co-owner of all city-states in name, Sekhmet can only be the queen of the gods jointly respected by all gods.

Because they only surrendered to Sekhmet in name, when the gods heard Sekhmet's request, they all surrendered without hesitation and offered nominal loyalty to Sekhmet.

Seeing that among the gods present, only the goddesses Neite and Vadjet, who belonged to the Kingdom of Athens, did not bow to him, Sekhmet nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Very good! Now give me your divine power and let me complete the creation of the temples again."

After saying that, Sekhmet stretched out his hands towards the gods and began to draw out the divine power of the gods.

The gods did not resist Sekhmet, because they could only have their thrones in Sekhmet's temples if they contributed their divine power to the creation of the temples.

When Sekhmet extracted enough divine power from the gods, Sekhmet immediately condensed the divine power of the gods and his own divine power into a sphere.

Sekhmet said with a smile as he looked at the sphere of divine power that merged with the divine power of the gods and bloomed with colorful divine light.

"Four hundred years ago, I used the Sekhmet Temple at that time as the prototype to create the temples. Now, four hundred years later, I will use the current Sekhmet Temple as the prototype of the temples!"

After Sekhmet finished speaking, the sphere of divine power as the core of the temples expanded and deformed like a liquid, and soon turned into a building that overlapped with the Sekhmet Temple.

Although the shape and structure of Sekhmet's temples are exactly the same as those of Sekhmet's temples, the temples created by the divine power of the gods are all magnificent and magnificent, like palaces made of gold.

Somewhat different from the Sekhmet Temple, the deep part of the hall is not an ordinary throne made of stone, but a golden throne inlaid with a sun disk.

There are twenty golden thrones of various sizes arranged on both sides of the corridor of the main hall.

After the creation of the temples was completed, Sekhmet sat on his golden throne and then spoke to the expectant gods.

"My subjects, please all return to your respective thrones!"

After Sekhmet finished speaking, the gods immediately walked to the twenty golden thrones lined up on both sides of the aisle of the hall.

The thrones on which the fourteen city-state patron saints stand are all golden thrones blooming with divine light.

The thrones on which the six gods without patron saint status stand are all dim silver thrones.

Seeing his subjects returning to their respective positions, Sekhmet looked at Knight and Wadjet and teased.

"Nate! Wagit! Although you now belong to the Kingdom of Athens, I believe that Nafir will conquer all the city-states in northern Egypt. Whether it is you or Bastetto and Seth, they will eventually enter my pantheon. If If you want a good seat, I can leave you the first throne on the left and the first throne on the right."

"unnecessary!"

Knight said coldly without hesitation.

"My hunch tells me that I will never become your vassal."

After hearing Knight's answer, Sekhmet looked at Roy with an unhappy expression and said.

"Loy! You and Nafir will become husband and wife soon. Please return the cities of Buto and Sais to the Kingdom of Egypt! As a reward for you, I will allow you to become my son of God and help you After your death, you will be made a god and you will have a throne in my pantheon.”

Generally speaking, goddesses, even if they are virgins, would not hate having their priestesses become the daughters of the goddess.

But goddesses usually hate when men become the sons of their goddesses.

As the Queen of the Gods and the Virgin Goddess, Sekhmet is not only willing to let Roy become her son of god, but is also willing to help Roy become a god——

Anyone else would have eagerly agreed to Sekhmet's request.

Not only did Roy not agree to Sekhmet's request, he also rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.

Because Sekhmet's ambition is obviously not only for Knight and Vadjet, but also to make the Kingdom of Athens her territory, and to make all the gods of the Kingdom of Athens her subjects.

"Goddess Sekhmet, I am a priest of the goddess Metis, so I cannot be your son."

"What a fool!"

Crocodile God Sobek immediately complained.

"I want to be her son, but I don't have such a chance."

Roy didn't take the bait, Sekhmet said disappointedly.

"As long as you agree to become my son of God, I will give you the blessing and power of the Queen of Gods, so that you can have the power second only to the Hero God [100,000 Enemies]."

The power second only to the Hero God [100,000 Enemies]--

Roy was shaken for a moment, then shook his head and said.

"There is no free lunch in the world! The more I get, the more I pay."

"Think about it! As long as you are still the King of Athens, you can change your mind and come to me at any time."

As long as I am still the King of Athens?

Isn't your promise just now to me, but to the King of Athens?

While Roy was complaining in his heart, Sekhmet said to the gods with a smile.

"My subjects! Now everyone releases their power and raises our Pantheon to the sky."

After that, Sekhmet was the first to release his power.

After the gods followed suit and released their power, the Pantheon immediately left the ground and flew to the sky, leaving only Knight and Wadgit in the Sekhmet Temple.

Because Neit and Wadjet do not belong to Sekhmet's pantheon, they will not move with the pantheon.

Libyan Desert.

This desert is located in the northeast of the Sahara Desert, including central and western Egypt and the eastern Libya region.

At this time, the sun god Amon, the sun god Atum, and the eagle god Hentiheti, who were driven off the throne of the guardian god, formed a wandering god alliance here.

When Sekhmet's pantheon rose to the sky and shone with divine light to illuminate Egypt, Amon looked at Sekhmet's pantheon and said angrily.

"This should have been my glory! Damn Nefer, four hundred years ago, her ancestors betrayed me and moved the capital of the Pharaoh royal family from Thebes to Itaw. Now, four hundred years later, Nefer not only betrayed me, but also let Roy, an alien invader, drive me off the throne. Women really shouldn't be pharaohs."
