Chapter 197: Faith and Choice (Please Collect, Recommend, and Subscribe)

Ten days later, everyone returned to Cairo. →Ten Bedouin warriors and fifty Guardian tribe warriors (hereinafter referred to as Guardians) returned with them. Only these ten of the fifty Bedouin warriors survived, and the others died. In fact, when Kai returned, several Bedouin warriors were still alive, but they were seriously injured. Kai had the ability to heal them, but in the end he respected their wishes. They believed that they should return to Allah.

Although Kai did not believe in any religion, he still helped them realize their last wishes and gave them a final blessing. Kai's final blessing was not based on their scriptures, but was made up by himself. After all, he didn't know how to do it. But the warriors were very satisfied.

As for why they were unwilling to let Kai save them, the reason was very simple. Healing them would cost a price - their souls!

Kai had a treasure, a treasure that could bring the dead back to life - a holy object from the old religion - the Holy Grail of Life. The Holy Grail could theoretically heal any injury, as long as the person being treated was not dead, he could be saved.

But this is conditional, you have to pay a price for what you get.

The Holy Grail is always fair. Although the Holy Grail was seized by Kai and became its undisputed master, this rule cannot be changed. In order to save Arthur, Kai used the Holy Grail. He was lucky at the time and relied on the golden finger to withstand the cost. At that time, all of Kai's energy points were consumed.

But now Kai's energy points are not many. Although Kai has accumulated a lot of energy by killing a series of enemies such as Imhotep, many dog ​​demons, and the Scorpion King, there may be only two points. According to the experience of saving Arthur, these two points are not enough to save one person, let alone others. →

But Kai thought of a way to make peace. Although the price must be paid, the delivery can be delayed. For example, Kai saved Ahfu, and the price was paid by Ahfu, but it could be delayed for several decades, and Ahfu's soul would return to the Holy Grail after his death. There would be a little interest in the middle, but it didn't matter, Kai could help pay it. In this way, he would consume very little energy, and saving some people would not be a big deal.

But this is also related to another issue. That is the issue of faith.

For example, the Bedouins believe in Islam, and they participate in the so-called holy war for faith, in order to let their souls ascend to heaven. But the price of their survival is that their souls cannot return to Allah, and they are unwilling to do so. They can ascend to heaven immediately, so why should they pay such a price?

This is also when Kai asked Laofu if he could accept such a price. He remembered that Laofu's family were all devout Protestants, and people who believed in God still attached great importance to the belonging of the soul, especially in this era, when faith was treated much more seriously than in later generations.

But Laofu did not hesitate at all and immediately accepted this request on behalf of Ahfu. In the eyes of some people, Laofu is a bit too selfish. For example, Catherine, although she is a witch, she is indeed a devout believer. Well, it's so magical.

She felt that if it didn't work, Ahfu's soul should be allowed to return to the arms of God. If she knew her future life, she probably wouldn't say that.

But she didn't condemn it too much. After all, who could blame an old man for saving his only grandson? This is human nature!

So Ahfu came back to life, and he didn't blame his grandfather for his choice. He didn't disbelieve in God. On the contrary, he was still pious, but he didn't want to abandon his grandfather. That would be too cruel to an old man. As for the destination of the soul... he's not dead yet, let's talk about it after he dies!

Of course, the Bedouin's choice was not wrong. Everyone has their own choice, and there is no way to force it.

However, the appearance of the Holy Grail also brought sequelae, that is, almost everyone regarded the Holy Grail of Life as the Holy Grail that was widely circulated in the Western world. Especially the Holy Grail legend of King Arthur. Now the religious aura on Kai is even stronger.

This is terrible. He is a non-believer, but he is worshipped as a religious figure. It's simply.

After seeing the Holy Grail, the ten Bedouin warriors firmly believed that this was Allah's holy object and they must protect it. So they vowed to follow Kai. However, Kai privately believed that these Bedouins wanted to continue to follow Kai to pursue a glorious death in battle because they failed to die in battle. This serious self-destructive tendency is really very ***.

In contrast, the people of the Guardian Tribe are much more receptive to the Holy Grail treatment. Kai is a god, and it is normal for their souls to belong to God. So fifty dying Guardian warriors accepted the Holy Grail and vowed to become the guardians of the Holy Grail.

As for the British...unfortunately, all the British soldiers died except Afu.

...

When they returned to Cairo again, they could hardly recognize that this was the city they had stayed in before. There were traces of gunpowder everywhere, and the city was still emitting a faint stench, and there were very few pedestrians.

It was not until they met with the head of Cairo's intelligence that they knew what happened after they left.

They left for almost two months, but in these two months, Cairo almost became a battlefield. The British and Egyptians, Egyptians and Egyptians, and the various tribes in Egypt, let's put it this way, not only Cairo, but almost the whole of Egypt was in a mess in the previous two months.

First, various disasters led to food shortages, which in turn led to intensified conflicts. In order to vent their anger, to compete for food, clean water, or simply for ambition, people began to kill each other brutally.

In the past two months, Cairo has experienced no less than fifteen riots due to food, plague and other issues. This has increased the death toll in Cairo by 30,000. As for how many people died in Egypt, only God knows.

Anyway, after such a commotion, the British rule in Egypt has become more stable, because after everyone killed a lot, they found that the natural disasters were over. They looked at each other in the ruins, all bruised and swollen, and they didn't get anything, so they might as well be honest.

These things have nothing to do with Kai and the others, but what happens next is related to them.

It's about Anna Sui.

Kai saw Anna Sui before, but didn't realize that it was Anna Sui. So this woman escaped miraculously, and ran to Cairo to meet with the German Baron von Grossmann, and then the British noticed them.

The noise these people made in Egypt was too big. They killed at least 3,000 people. Even if the British were blind, they would not fail to notice them. So the British began to investigate and found Anna Sui and the masked man Carl. This masked man appeared next to Baron von Grossmann at some point.

No wonder Kai never saw him again.

After that, Anna Sui left Egypt with the Germans, and it was unknown where she went.

However, the British did not gain nothing. They at least knew Anna Sui's secret-she became a demon!

This discovery surprised Kai. He just felt that Anna Sui's breath was a little weird before, but he didn't expect that she would become a demon. She was a pure human before! How could she become a demon?

You know, demons are not like the legends, they are transformed from the souls of evil people. To put it bluntly, they are alien creatures. How can humans become demons? The species has changed!
