On the high slope, Samet was silent when he saw Egypt's Seth army rushing over to provide support and Ramses retreating.
Nat sighed. "I didn't expect the Seth army to come so timely. Master, it's time to make a decision. "
"Order the Ptah army to move out and assist the Pharaoh," Samet said.
"Master, if we gather the soldiers loyal to you, we can still draw out a few hundred elites! Why don't we … "Nat said in a low voice, a trace of viciousness in his eyes.
"No, if we do that, the crime of murdering the Pharaoh will spread throughout Egypt. Ramses' prime minister and officials will oppose me, and it will be even more impossible for me to sit on the throne of the Pharaoh!" Samet shook his head and rejected the proposal.
"But … even if you go to assist them now, Ramses' suspicion of you will not be eliminated! We can only fight to the death now! "Nat persuaded in a low voice.
Samet shook his head again. "Don't say anymore! I've already decided. If Amon doesn't give me the chance to rule Egypt, then I can only choose to obey his will. "
… …
After a series of fierce battles, the Hittites were also exhausted. Under the encouragement of the Pharaoh, the Egyptians, who were eager to return home, broke through the Hittites' blockade with a powerful burst of energy.
In particular, the Ptah army, which arrived late, made the Hittites flinch. King Muwattalis ordered them to retreat and return to the Stone City to guard it. If they pursued rashly, the Egyptians would take advantage of the situation and occupy the Stone City, and the entire Suriston (Syria) region would no longer be a barrier.
Under the witness of Bai Xiaowen, Ramses and Samet, who were brothers on the surface, had a friendly and cordial meeting.
Samet apologized as soon as he came up, but he also shirked responsibility. He said that they had been harassed by the Hittite rangers during the march and had sent out their elites to pursue them. That was why they had been delayed.
Ramses comforted him. When Samet heard that the Pharaoh might be in trouble, he gave up on his original target in Ugarit City and rushed over to "rescue" him. His sincerity could be seen through by the heavens.
At least Samet brought the Ptah army to the battlefield intact, unlike the Lai army that had been ambushed by the Hittites and completely defeated.
Samet then indirectly asked about the origins of Bai Xiaowen and Li Du. In fact, he was also trying to explain.
The two of them had left the army halfway. He had thought that they were traitors, so he had issued the wrong order from the temple. He had almost messed up his plan. For this he was sincere (?) She apologized to Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen thought to himself that Samet's skin was thick enough. This seemed to be a necessary skill for a Wang family descendant.
Ramesses didn't deny Samet's conjecture that the two of them were the Pharaoh's trusted aides. Instead, he smiled and agreed. As for the wrong temple edict, Ramses also expressed his understanding.
In short, the two brothers cleared up the misunderstanding and worked closely together to rule Egypt together …
As if.
After forgiving Samet for his late arrival, Ramses stripped Samet of his title and had him come to his side as the deputy commander of the Amon legion to learn how to lead an army … Once he finished his apprenticeship, he would let him lead an army.
As for the date of graduation … That was naturally decided by Ramses.
The Ptah legion was handed over to Ramesses' trusted general, Sang Pu, for the time being.
Bai Xiaowen looked at Samet's hesitant expression as he handed over the legion commander's token. He shook his head slightly and said in the team channel, "Samet is ambitious.
Even if Ramesses II dies, I'm afraid it won't be his turn to take the Pharaoh's position. "
Li Shuyi said, "He should have taken a risk and stabbed Ramesses when the situation was in a stalemate. There might have been hope. I don't know why he didn't do that and chose to hand over the token instead … Ramesses boiled a frog in warm water like this. After all his power is taken away, he might not be able to escape death. "
"Maybe he's greedy for his current power and position and doesn't have the courage to fight," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "There's a saying in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms: 'A poor horse can't stop loving beans'. It's talking about people like Samet … Anyway, let's take stock of the gains after this battle."
The battle had lasted for a long time. Both camps had tens of thousands of soldiers killed and suffered heavy losses. But for the Awakened, the gains were off the charts.
In terms of psionic energy points, the team's savings had increased by more than 20,000! As a pure reward of psionic energy points for killing monsters, it was absolutely terrifying.
Bai Xiaowen had specifically selected elite Hittite officers to attack. Regardless of whether he was the main attacker or the last hit, he could steadily harvest a portion of Soul Essence. After this battle, the growth of the Black Soul Stone had reached 1,344 points of Soul Essence.
It had to be said that this kind of large-scale battle was the most suitable for the growth of the Black Soul Stone. This was also because the difficulty of the ancient Egyptian plane was not high, and there were not many elites in the legion. Otherwise, after this battle, the growth of the Black Soul Stone would probably be close to level six.
They did not gain much from the treasure chests, mainly because in the chaotic battlefield, when most of the enemies were killed, they were attacked by the Egyptian soldiers, who were from the same camp as them. This reduced the drop rate of the treasure chests. After counting, the two of them got a total of seven elite treasure chests and one gold treasure chest. As for the ordinary treasure chests, they only had time to pick up five.
Other hidden gains were the increased reputation value in the camp, the favorability of the Spiritual World characters, and so on.
Their camp reputation was still at Respect, but looking at the progress bar, it was close to Reverence.
Ramses' favorability was still at the Acquaintance level, but Sang Pu's favorability toward Bai Xiaowen had increased a lot, reaching the Friend level.
On the way back to the Amu Fortress, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi secretly opened a wave of treasure chests since they had nothing to do anyway.
The ordinary treasure chests were needless to say, as they basically gave psionic energy points.
The seven elite treasure chests all had low combat ratings, and they were relatively weak. Only the two rare elite treasure chests were slightly worth looking at. In the end, one of them dropped a piece of blue equipment, and the other dropped a piece of gold equipment.
The gold equipment was a cloth hood called [Centurion's Glory]. It increased strength and physique without any special effects. Neither of them needed it, so they left it in the storage space for the time being.
The last one to be opened was the gold treasure chest of the commander of the Hittite army, the level-8 leader Horimu.
Level A combat rating!
After receiving this notification, both of them felt excited. The value of this treasure chest was much higher than the total value of the previous 12 treasure chests. This was the temptation of killing a boss. It was definitely not a dream to become rich overnight.
