Gabriel replied:
"If you have news of Amon, inform the people in the Plains of Duc to evacuate the city of Leng. I know you are very resourceful, and it is not difficult to send someone to sneak into the caravan to deliver the message. People are looking for him, and so am I.
… … Supreme General Amon should have arrived at Eygut by now, didn't he come to see you? "
Rod Drick shook his head and said: "No, the Supreme General did not come to see me." Uh, no, what I had a few days ago was not a dream! " At this point, he suddenly raised his head with a look of horror on his face and recalled: "I had a dream a few days ago, Supreme General Amon was standing at the head of the bed and looking at me. I woke up with fright, but there was no one in the room." Gabriel was also startled. "It seems that Supreme General Amon has been here, because it was you who sent Lady Maria to Duc back then, and she became the Adoratrice. I am worried that what happened to the Adoratrice will make him lose his mind, and I am really glad that you are still alive. " After saying this, Gabriel left, but Rod Drick did not dare to go back to sleep. He put on his clothes, got out of bed, took off his sword, and sat in the room until dawn. After dawn, he summoned the chief priest of the Anjira legion and the priests in the shrine, saying that now that a chaotic battle had broken out in the Plains of Duc, Strait should also be on guard, and that the guards of the governor's office should be strengthened. He ordered the mages and the craftsmen in the city to build an alert magic formation to be placed in his mansion.
Rod Drick was now also the head of the Anjira legion, and since the chief priest George had left and never returned, he had asked the Pharaoh to send another supreme mage to Strait in the name of stabilizing the border. As a result, an honorary high priest, Ibin, was transferred from the Temple of Isis to serve as the chief priest of Strait and the Anjira legion.
Ibin did not understand why the governor suddenly wanted to strengthen the security and guard of the governor's mansion, but he did as he was told. Rod Drick was not worried that Gabriel or Amon would come to assassinate him, but last night's experience had really frightened him. If there really was an assassin as capable as Amon or Gabriel, then he would be in great danger, and it was better to take precautions.
After leaving Strait, Gabriel traveled day and night to Montefiore, and the main shrine of Isis that she was once so familiar with had turned into a scorched earth. Half of the shrine square had been destroyed, and there were guards on duty at the edge of the square to prevent ordinary people from approaching. It was said that a shrine of Seth would be built here, and there would be a special place for Maria in the side hall.
Amon would definitely come here, or he had already been here. Gabriel wandered around the square for several days, but never found Amon.
After the destruction of the main shrine of Isis, the chief supreme warrior of the shrine and the commander of the Legion of Isis, Drick, was the busiest and most nervous person in Montefiore. He had to answer questions from all sides, and wrote a detailed report to the Pharaohs Of Eygut. The atmosphere in Montefiore was also very tense, and he had to strengthen patrols to prevent any more trouble at this time.
It was not until more than a month later that the official announcement of the Empire of Eygut was issued, and the incident was considered to have a clear official statement, that Drick was slightly relieved. On this day, he still personally led the guards to patrol the city, and when he passed by the ruins of the Temple of Isis, he sighed inexplicably, stopped his horse for a moment, and then continued to move forward, returning to his office.
Just as he dismounted, a man came to the door of the mansion, and shouted in a low and clear voice: "Lord Drick, do you have time to talk?" Hearing this voice, Drick was taken aback, and the surrounding guards were about to stop him, but he quickly waved his hand: "This is my friend, quickly invite him into the mansion and close the door."
The man wore a cloak to cover his face, and followed Drick into the mansion. When they came to a small reception hall, Drick sent the servants away and asked: "Gabriel, how dare you return to Montefiore?" Gabriel took off his cloak and said: "I was ordered to kill Amon, and as a warrior, I asked for a duel. I was defeated in the duel and became a prisoner. The Empire of Eygut refused the Supreme General's request for a ransom, and he can decide how to deal with the prisoner, so he released me. I did not violate any imperial laws, so why can't I come back? Commander Drick, you are in charge of the security of Montefiore. May I ask if you want to arrest me, and for what reason? "
Drick's expression was a bit awkward, and he said in a low voice: "What you said is the truth. Of course I won't arrest you, and I have no reason to arrest you. Didn't I invite you in? I knew that the Supreme General would come to find me, but I didn't expect you to come as well. " Gabriel leaned forward with his hands on the table, saying: "The Supreme General has already come?" Amon had indeed come to find Drick three days ago, and the scene was almost the same as today. At that time, Drick was patrolling the city, and just as he was getting off his horse and entering the mansion, a beggar in ragged clothes suddenly appeared in the distance. The guards were about to chase him away when Drick suddenly heard a voice in his ear: "Drick, I have something to ask you!"
This voice was like a sudden clap of thunder. Drick was startled and hurriedly said to the guards: "This is an elder from afar, please come to the backyard." The newcomer was Amon. His hair was disheveled, his face was dirty, and his clothes were ragged, looking like a beggar. Without saying a word, he walked into Drick's mansion. Drick followed behind and respectfully welcomed him into the backyard. According to Drick's memories, Supreme General Amon was still conscious, but his eyes were red, and when he spoke, he was always staring at an unknown place, not knowing what he was thinking.
Of course, Drick knew why Amon was looking for him, and he gave a detailed account of everything that happened in the Temple of Isis. Then Amon took something left behind by Maria and went somewhere.
Gabriel asked: "Under the power of the Tiamat's Wrath, what else could be left behind?" Drick replied: "I saw with my own eyes a figure rushing into the sky with a hiss of pain. No matter what kind of supreme mage he is, it is impossible for him to fly straight to an infinite height until he disappears. Who exactly it was, I can't say, but you can imagine. The Tiamat's Wrath can't destroy everything. The Adoratrice is gone, and the scepter is destroyed, but in the middle of the scorched earth, there is an Elixir of the Gods. "
At that time, after the storm with the power of destruction disappeared, people did not dare to approach the site of the Temple of Isis for a long time. It was Drick who entered with the warriors of the legion to clean up the remains. The supreme warrior walked in alone first, and he found that the only relic in the scorched earth was the Gods' Tear, lying quietly in the dust with tears shining.
Gabriel asked again: "Why did you keep the parangon and not hand it over?" Drick lowered his head and replied: "I don't know why, but the luster of the Gods' Tear really shone like a tear, so I quietly put it away. I also know that this parangon was personally opened by Supreme General Amon back then. Maybe one day he will return here, so I think the relic of the Adoratrice should be given to him, not the Empire of Eygut. " Gabriel did not find Amon again, but he learned the latest news about Amon. He had come to Montefiore and taken the Gods' Tear from Drick. Zaimon had experienced many hardships, but he had never been depressed. His life was very simple, and he did not pursue luxury, but he had never abandoned himself. Now he was unkempt and dirty, and his clothes were ragged. It seemed that he had no mind to care about other things, not even the clothes he wore and the dust on his face.
What kind of state of mind was this, that could make a ninth-level great achiever fall into such a state! According to Drick, Amon's mind was still clear, but he was always in a state of confusion. Fortunately, he now looked like a beggar, and it was not easy to attract attention in the crowd.
Gabriel searched for Amon in the various cities of Eygut. This was a mission given to her by Maria, and she had to complete it. Looking for Amon had even become her belief. The young man who walked out of the town of Duc had now become the altar of Amun, but he had given up everything he had and disappeared into the mortal world in ragged clothes. Half a year passed, and Gabriel still could not find him.
With the passage of time, the unforgettable pain seemed to be less intense, and inadvertently became lasting and continuous. If Gabriel could not find Amon, she could not go back. Whenever she turned around on this road, she seemed to be able to see Maria's eyes, shining like the Gods' Tear.
The place where Gabriel finally stopped was the eastern bank of the Nile River, surrounded by a wilderness. In the distance, there were schools of slugs resting on the riverbank. A little further from the riverbank was a range of mountains, and there was a bend in the mountains. Walking into the col, there was a flat valley.
This place was still fresh in Gabriel's memory. When Amon first came to Eygut, the high priest of the Temple of Isis, Julien, had sent people to hunt him down. There was a fierce battle in this valley. Amon eliminated all the pursuers, exhausted his strength and seriously injured. He walked out of the col to the riverbank and fainted on the ground.
Maria and Gabriel happened to be passing by the Nile River in a boat. Alarmed by Schrödinger's cry, they went ashore to rescue Amon. This was an unexpected reunion, as if it was a pursuit arranged by fate. If Amon could not get rid of the heartache, sooner or later he would come to this place to remember Maria. Gabriel was waiting in this valley.
After living in seclusion in the valley, Gabriel did not give up on cultivating the power of the origin. To find Amon and protect him, he must have great power. Amon was facing the Ennead, the Archangel. Seth's injuries were definitely not light, and he would certainly not appear again in the short term, so Amon would not be able to find him. But Seth could command the many divine emissaries in the Ennead, and no matter how capable Amon was, it would be difficult to deal with him alone.
Perhaps the conflict had already broken out, but Gabriel had been wandering around the Eygut for so long and had not heard of any fierce fighting. The so-called cultivation was not just about power. Gabriel had to calm her soul and find the clear and firm faith that guided her. She had been thinking about what Maria said in the letter.
Maria knew what kind of impact this would have on Gabriel's soul, so she specifically asked in the letter, "At that time, what kind of guidance will your faith receive?" She also reminded, "I know your faith in the gods, that is the light of your heart. I hope you will find the true source of divinity and accept the guidance of that light." Maria did not want Gabriel to be lost because of this, and even tactfully told Gabriel to accept the guidance of Amon. The Adoratrice was well aware of the path of exploration that Amon was walking on. But now the one who was lost was Amon, and perhaps he was getting further and further away from the path to the gods.
The people of Leng had lost Amun, and Amon had also lost Maria, and he must find her. And Gabriel wanted to find Amon, which was equivalent to finding the source of divinity that guided her in her faith. When the sun rose on this day, Gabriel sat in the valley and prayed quietly, listening to the voice from the soul that was getting clearer and clearer. "Whose voice is it that rings in the soul, like the light of the sky, that is the call of the eternal source? Whose eyes did I see, full of compassion, with divine sorrow? God, the god that I call, who are you and where are you? To find you, to find my wish, my path, and my glory!
Open your eyes and see, the sinful people of the world have created everything that makes them feel sinful. The man in the white robe promises blessings to the world, but under the white robe is the tail of sin. People of the temple, to whom are you offering? The statue of the god whose hands are stained with blood accepts the praise of the people. The true god will come and carry out a great and all-encompassing investigation. The golden grain will be left behind, and the chaff of the sinner will be burned. I will not forgive him! Under the huge shadow, I see the light of the angel flying, I see the mission that I struggle for, I see the source of divinity, I see the round ghost above my head … "…"
Gabriel, who was praying, suddenly raised her head. In the distance, there were several powerful auras rapidly approaching from the direction of the Nile River, accompanied by violent impacts and buzzing sounds of energy explosions. This was a fierce battle between the great achievers. Gabriel flew up into the air with the Blade of Order. She had long been an eighth-level supreme warrior, and now she had also verified the eighth-level achievement of the power of origin.
As soon as Gabriel flew out of the valley, she saw a figure fall from the sky like a meteor, barely falling into the river and landing on the shore. The man's hair was disheveled and his body was covered in dust, and he smashed a large pit in the soft, wet soil of the riverbank, mud splashing everywhere as if he was unconscious. Although his face could not be seen clearly, the familiar figure was that of Amon, whom Gabriel had been looking for for a long time.
In the distant sky, two people were flying over one after the other, and the one in front was the Frog Goddess Heqet of the Ennead divine clan. There were brownish-green stripes on her cheeks and forehead that reflected a strange floating luster. The Frog Goddess flew over and waved her sleeves in the air. Waves rolled up on the Nile River, and a transparent water arrow flew out from the waves, drawing a curved arc towards Amon who had fallen to the ground.
Huge waves also surged up from the river and rushed ashore, white foam rolling up the wall of waves like a huge monster hand stretching out from the river, carrying muddy water with it towards Amon who had fallen on the riverbank.
Just then, Gabriel arrived and slashed out with her axe. It was as if space had been cut open, separating the wall of waves rushing towards the shore from the waves in the river. The huge force caused the water to splash everywhere, and several huge slugs flew back into the river with their fangs and claws. This was a space-cutting magic, executed with the magical Blade of Order, and its power was indescribable.
Although Gabriel had mastered the eighth level of the power of origin and could instantaneously cast high-level magic like a supreme mage, she had always been a warrior at heart, and she always had a habit of doing what she was best at. The slash in the air only used the power of space-cutting to disperse the wall of waves that rolled towards Amon, while Gabriel's figure did not stop, and like a bolt of lightning, she flew straight towards Heqet who was flying in the air.
The battle-axe erupted with a silver arc of light, covering Gabriel's figure within it, and dispersed the water arrow rolled up by Heqet with a crisp shattering sound. Gabriel's appearance was too sudden, and Heqet was almost caught off guard. She hurriedly turned around and clasped her hands together, and the scattered water arrows and the rising waves in the river quickly condensed into a thick ice wall in the air.
With a cracking sound, the ice wall was split open by the silver light as soon as it appeared, and from the silver light, a majestic blonde woman wielding a half-moon-shaped battle-axe chopped straight towards Heqet. As a divine emissary, Heqet rarely encountered this kind of battle. Gabriel was one with the axe as he charged straight towards her from the air, and did not even bother to take a stance or fight with her. He was completely focused on killing the enemy, and did not even bother to ask a single question.
Heqet hurriedly opened her mouth and roared, and a surging sound wave spread out in front of her. With a huge impact, the ice wall that had been split apart instantly exploded, and the silver light that enveloped Gabriel was also shattered, but Gabriel was still able to chop down with her axe.
Heqet's frog's roar could even shatter boulders, and even if a powerful warrior's body could withstand it, the impact on their soul would still cause them to lose consciousness. This was her best method of survival and attack. Although the arc of light formed by the fusion of Gabriel and his axe was shattered, the axe seemed to have cut a gap in the roar's impact.
A green mist burst out with scattered brown streaks, and it was as if oil had been splashed in the air. Heqet screamed miserably as she tumbled towards the other side of the Nile River, and the green robe she was wearing was already in tatters. She had actually been cut down by Gabriel's axe, and was already injured. If it weren't for the Rampage God Sobek rushing over from behind, Gabriel would have rushed over and killed her with another swing of his axe.
Sobek's position was a little further back, and when Heqet flew to the center of the Nile River, he had just crossed the shore. Amon had already landed on the ground and was unable to fight back, and seeing that he was about to be captured, the Rampage God was overjoyed and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He slowed down a little, but he did not expect an accident to suddenly occur.
A silver light flew up from the other side of the river, and from his point of view, he saw that Heqet was sent flying in an instant, and even Heqet's roar, which was her forte, was unable to stop the enemy. The Rampage God bared his fangs and brandished his claws as he fell, and only then did the Rampage God see Gabriel in the air. The blonde female warrior had already swung her axe at him, and an arc of light flew towards him with a thunderous roar.
