Report

Alexander claimed to be the son of Amon in the temple, but there was no oracle, because Amon could not know any of this at this time. As Artemis said, when Alexander sacrificed to him in the temple, the god who had returned to the human world might still be a baby in swaddling clothes.

Perhaps he was a creature wandering in the jungle, or a seed sprouting in the soil.

Even if Amon was still in heaven, he would not send an oracle because of this. Telling the world that there was a way to transcend eternal life was the last oracle of Amun.

Alexander conquered Eygut and knew how to win people's hearts with a policy of restraint. Not only did he claim to be the son of Amon, but he also ordered the construction of a new port north of Montefiore, at the mouth of the Nile River, and named it Alexandria after himself to promote his extraordinary achievements. Not only that, he also ordered the reconstruction of the Temple of Isis in Alexandria, fulfilling his promise to Medanzo.

Although the goddess Isis had fallen long ago, in Eygut, she was still the Holy Mother Angel that people believed in. When the temple was completed, some old people discovered something. The Holy Mother Angel on the altar was no longer the original appearance. The craftsmen of Eygut had actually sculpted her into the appearance of the last Adoratrice of the Temple of Isis, Maria.

The people of Eygut had never seen Isis, and the memory of the goddess had faded. But when talking about Isis, people would think of the last Adoratrice of the Temple of Isis, Maria. Countless people had seen her. This might be a coincidence, intentional or unintentional. The craftsmen had integrated the image of Maria into the statue of Isis, or it was intentional.

If Amon knew what the emperor had done, he would at least have a good impression of him. Alexander knew how to win over people's hearts and how to please the gods. The Alexandria Harbor he built was more magnificent than any other city on the continent. Not only did it surpass Montefiore, but it also surpassed Bablon City, which had a long history on the continent.

Alexander not only requisitioned the power of Eygut, but also used the power of the entire Macedonian Empire to build this new city. It was a miracle on the continent, and in the next few hundred years, it became the cultural and commercial center of the continent.

Alexander himself stayed in Eygut for a year. Before Alexandria was fully built, he once again led the army to the east. The route of his expedition was the exact opposite of the route that Gilgamesh had taken when he led the Uruk Army to the west. He would cross the southern part of the Syah Desert and attack the former Bablon Kingdom. In the wilderness on the banks of the Euphrates River, the Macedonian army and the million-strong army of Potsdam, led by Darius III, were engaged in a final battle.

At this time, the Potsdam Empire had lost its territory on the west bank of the Euphrates River. Like a heavily wounded giant, it mustered the last of its strength to resist the rising Macedonian Empire, but was once again defeated. Alexander won a decisive victory, defeating the last main force of the Potsdam Empire. Taking advantage of this victory, he crossed the Euphrates River and smoothly occupied the most glorious city on the continent, Bablon City.

The towering Divine Gate outside Bablon City was now covered in smoke and ruins, like a huge and desolate monument. In the era of Cyrus and Darius, the conqueror of Potsdam didn't force the people of Bablon to change their faith in Marduc. But after the death of Darius, his successor, Xerxes, spread the Great Radiant Church throughout Potsdam and ordered the Divine Gate to be burned down.

Alexander came to the Divine Gate to pay homage to the ruins and publicly announced that he would restore this magnificent miracle. This made the people of Bablon very excited. But the project was too huge. Just to clean up the rubble and rubble of the Divine Gate would require tens of thousands of people.

It was easy to destroy a magnificent building that had been built by generations of people for hundreds of years, but it was too difficult to restore it.

Alexander only made a gesture, but in the end, he did not restore the Divine Gate. But he rebuilt Marduc's shrine in Bablon City and led the people to offer sacrifices to Marduc. This won the favor of the local people and the support of the traditional priests. At the grand ceremony, Alexander also called himself the "Son of Marduc".

One can imagine how solemn and holy the occasion was. The title of "Son of Marduc" added a holy aura to Alexander's rule, and he was praised and revered by the people. When people looked up to this god-like emperor, they must be in awe and trepidation.

But Alexander's behavior on earth amused Artemis and Mourrin in the clouds. They were originally in a serious mood, but when they saw Alexander first call himself the son of Amon in Eygut and then the son of Marduc in Bablon, they couldn't help but laugh.

Alexander used the most solemn and sacred ceremony on earth to make the gods in heaven laugh in a serious manner. Artemis laughed and shook her head. "Who taught him this? He really doesn't regard himself as an outsider and doesn't separate from the family! " Alexander did not regard himself as an outsider. He learned the dignified Eastern court etiquette, wore the costume of the Emperor of Potz, accepted people's prostrations, and followed the provincial system created by Cyrus. The provincial jurisdictions of the Empire of Macedonia were roughly based on the settings of the Empire of Potz. But compared to the Potz era, the Macedonian era strengthened the monarchy, and the military, financial, and civil affairs of the local provinces were separated to check each other.

Alexander also carried out a number of reforms to promote the integration of the various tribes within the entire empire. In the minds of many people in the Greek city-states. They believed that only the people who believed in the Olympian gods on the Heaton Peninsula were civilized and civilized people, while the rest of the world was inhabited by barbarians. Alexander was certainly not such a frog at the bottom of a well. He knew that the civilization on the continent was more glorious and long, and the people there also had extraordinary wisdom and talent.

Alexander not only promoted this integration through the establishment of a unified provincial system, but also adopted means such as marriage between the various tribes, expansion of the army, and other means to break the traditional boundaries, not only to win over the local nobles, but also to solve the problem of the source of troops. The emperor was particularly keen on holding mass weddings, encouraging his soldiers to marry local noble women. Every time he conquered a new country, he would often hold an unprecedented mass wedding.

Alexander himself also set an example by marrying different women from different places. Under his leadership, more than 10,000 Macedonian soldiers married women from various tribes. In Alexander's tent, the nobles and priests of various tribes swore loyalty to him.

This was an unprecedented great integration, and in the eyes of the people, it was also the grandest exchange of civilizations in a thousand years.

Alexander rested in Bablon for a year, and his army also conquered the territory of the former Assyrian Empire and continued eastward into the former Potz mainland. Darius III was killed by his subordinates, and the once glorious Potz Empire was destroyed. Alexander captured the Potz traitor who murdered Darius III and executed him for the crime of regicide. He held a funeral for Darius III and declared himself the heir of the Potz Empire.

So far, Macedon had completely conquered and annexed the Great Empire of Boz, but he did not stop his conquest. It took him a few years to integrate this huge empire, and then he led his army across the Boz mainland and continued westward into India. Here, Alexander encountered the most difficult battle since the Eastern Expedition. The phalanx of Macedonia met the elephant formation of the Indians. The battle was very tragic, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, but in the end, the genius Alexander was victorious.

He established three new provinces on the west bank of the Indian River. At this time, the territory of the Macedonian Empire was not far from Kunlun, but they were separated by the world's most insurmountable plateau. Alexander wanted to continue to march eastward and conquer the whole of India, but the army had already gone too far. The soldiers had fought for many years and arrived in a completely foreign land, and they were no longer in the mood for such endless conquest.

The morale of the army had changed, and Alexander had to retreat temporarily. He divided his troops into two groups. He led his army around the Syah Plateau and returned to Bablon by land, while the other navy set off from the mouth of the Indian River and returned along the coastline to join Alexander's army, completing the greatest military feat in the history of the continent.

Artemis and Mourrin had been watching Alexander from the clouds, trying to find traces of Amon's reincarnation along the route of the Great Emperor's conquest. When Alexander returned victoriously after conquering the Indian River, he was obviously still unwilling to give up. He returned to Bablon to regroup his troops and planned to march westward again one day.

Artemis and Mourrin thought to themselves, if at that time, would this Macedonian Emperor claim to be the Son of Brahma again, or even the Son of Infinite Light? If that was the case, what would Zeus's expression be? Angry or bitter? But they had to admit that a series of measures taken by Alexander during the expansion had done their best to consolidate this rapidly forming empire, and had also brought the worship of the Olympian gods to all parts of the continent and even farther away.

If Alexander could live as long as Aesop, everything in the future would be unknown. Unfortunately, history did not give him such a chance again. Shortly after he returned to Bablon City, a small mosquito bit the emperor who shook the continent. He suddenly had a high fever and died ten days later, before he reached the age of thirty-three.

Alexander's ambitious and short life surpassed his father, Philip II, in every aspect except for one thing, which was precisely the most fatal. He did not cultivate a suitable successor for himself as Philip II had cultivated him, but this could not be blamed on Alexander. He was too young when he died, and his children were underage.

After Alexander's death, his subordinates fought for power, and the great empire was soon divided into three parts. The Heaton Peninsula formerly ruled by Macedonia became the Kingdom of Macedonia, and the former Kingdom of Bablon on the continent became the Kingdom of West Asia. When Alexander was alive, he inherited the crown and scepter of the Pharaohs Of Eygut. After his death, his subordinate, Ptolemy, succeeded the Pharaoh and ruled Eygut, still worshiping Amon as the main god, and founded the Ptolemaic Dynasty in Eygut. History seemed to have returned to the beginning.

The Olympian gods and the angels of heaven did not find any clues about Amon's return to the human world. They had been silently paying attention to all possible clues, but they never found anything. Amon seemed to have disappeared without a trace in the vast world.

Three hundred years passed, and the gods and angels still had no news of Amon in the human world.

One morning, a group of camels came from the horizon at the end of the sand dunes, and the sun reflected dazzlingly on the sand. It was a caravan, leaving Eygut for Bablon. They needed to find a place to hide from the scorching noon sun. There was a huge ruin in the sand dunes in front of them, and half of the dome still remained on the top of the towering column. It was the ruins of a temple, but the altar had been submerged by the sand, and the magnificent statue of Amun was lying upside down in the sand dunes.

More than three hundred years ago, this place used to be a dependency of the Empire of Eygut Cape States, and Dick and his son became the castellans of Cape States. It was in this area that the Urudon Legion led by Gilgamesh and the Eygut Army led by Amon had fought fiercely in the past. This place was originally an oasis on the edge of the Syah Desert, on the border of Cape, where Amun built a magnificent temple.

As the climate changed, the oasis gradually became desertified, leaving only a spring at the foot of the hill next to the temple, which was a resting place for the caravans. The small hill and the ruins of the temple next to it were the resting place to block the scorching sun. Although it was not very comfortable, it was better than not having a nose.

The stone pillars carved with divine runes became stakes for the people to tie their horses, and the livestock's feces fell on the carved steps. People sat on the sand, leaning against the statue of Amun to rest, and the huge statue just happened to block the sun.

This temple had stood for hundreds of years, and it had been fifty years since it was abandoned. The statue of Amun was lying on the sand dunes, and the collapsed stones were trampled by horses and mules, and the ruins of the temple became a temporary resting place for the caravans. This meant that the people here no longer believed in this god, and all his glory and holiness had been forgotten.

What happened to make the temple of Amun become like this?

After the death of Alexander, his subordinates divided the great empire, and established three kingdoms, Macedonia, West Asia, and Eygut. Alexander's subordinate Ptolemy wore the crown of the Pharaoh, and established the Ptolemaic Dynasty in Eygut, which was the longest of the three kingdoms.

Not long after Alexander's death, in the northwest of the Macedonian Empire, another kingdom gradually rose. It was called the Republic of Maro. In the eyes of the people of the Hilton city-states, this was originally an undeveloped wilderness. But under the guidance of the gods, many sages came here. The people of Maro inherited the civilization and knowledge of the Hilton people, and were learners and imitators.

The system of the Republic of Maro generally followed the original Hilton city-states. They were originally subordinate to the Hilton Alliance, and after gradually becoming stronger, they established an independent country. They also believed in the Olympian gods. Because of the difference in language, Zeus was called Jupiter, Hera was called Juno, and Aphrodite, who was sent into reincarnation by Amon, was called Venus.

The Republic of Maro rose with the spread of the Hilton civilization, the expansion of the Macedonian Empire, and the integration of civilizations from all over the continent. At that time, Alexander was leading the army on a westward expedition, and his main focus was on the battlefield of Potz and India. He did not notice that the small Republic of Maro was quietly growing stronger.

Until two hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Macedonia was destroyed by the Republic of Maro.

A hundred years ago, the Republic of Maro had another powerful ruler. He was the Chief High Priest, Chief Justice, Life Dictator, and Commander-in-Chief of the Legion. His name was Kaiser.

Kaiser started from a provincial governor and a legion commander. He allied with the other two major forces in the country, became the governor of the Republic of Maro, and eventually monopolized power.

After Kaiser came to power, the Republic of Maro not only annexed the entire Hilton Peninsula, but also opened up a larger territory to the northwest. Kaiser led the army eastward, basically occupying the territory of the former Potz Empire, and pursued the enemy south all the way to Eygut.

At that time, Eygut was in the midst of civil strife. Queen Cleopatra sneaked into the city of Alexandria where Kaiser was, ordered someone to wrap herself in a blanket, and sent her to Kaiser's resting room …. She became Kaiser's lover.

Kaiser helped Cleopatra defeat her political enemies and became the queen who ruled the whole of Eygut. Eygut also became a vassal state of the Republic of Maro. At this point, Kaiser's achievements had surpassed Alexander's. The territory of the Republic of Maro had completely exceeded the territory of the former Macedonian Empire, and it even extended to the west and north.

Eygut, which believed in Amun, became the last remaining kingdom on this continent.

Unfortunately, Queen Cleopatra did not keep the fate of Eygut for long. A few years later, Kaiser was assassinated in the Senate of Maro. Cleopatra became the lover of Kaiser's subordinate, Anthony, and announced that the child she had with Kaiser was the "Son of Amon", the heir to the Kingdom of Eygut.

Since Alexander, many people in history claimed to be the "Son of Amon", and the last "Son of Amon" turned out to be the son of Queen Cleopatra and Kaiser.

But good times did not last long. Anthony was defeated and killed by Kaiser's adopted son, Octavian, and Cleopatra was captured by the army of Maro. The queen tried to repeat the same trick and continue to seduce Octavian, but she did not succeed. Octavian wanted to bring Cleopatra back to Maro as a prisoner of war and parade her in the streets. The queen also killed herself after hearing the news.

The Ptolemaic Dynasty of Eygut, which had lasted for nearly three hundred years, was finally destroyed. The Republic of Maro annexed Eygut and made it a province of the empire.

Octavian abolished the republican system and became emperor. His title was Augustus, and the Republic of Maro became the Maro Empire. This happened 50 years ago.

The Macedonian Empire established by Alexander completely disappeared, buried in the dust and gravel of history. What appeared on the continent was an unprecedented Maro Empire. The people of Maro enforced their rule and religion in each province, worshiping the gods of Olympus.
