Then, under Iben's shocked and horrified gaze, the night watcher gave him a weapon … It was the same weapon as the princess, but he didn't know why it was silver.
"Desert Eagle, the name of this gun." The night watcher gave a simple explanation. "There are only seven bullets. Use them sparingly."
The princess always had the divine weapon, and it was the most powerful weapon she used to defeat the giant beasts … Iben didn't expect that he would have a divine weapon one day!
"Desert Eagle …" Both of his hands were trembling as he held the silver pistol … It was clearly a cold gun, but it made him feel as if it was burning his hands. He said with a trembling voice, "I … I don't know how to use it?"
The night watcher glanced at Iben and said casually, "When you need it, you will naturally use it … Even if your brain forgets, your body's instinct will still be there."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing." The night watcher shook his head and walked toward the door of the underground stone room. "Let's go. The chance to get rich is not always there. If you don't pay attention, it will slip through your fingers … Poverty can make people crazy, and I believe you can do the same."
Iben licked his lips, and his eyes were filled with the endless pursuit of wealth … The most primitive desire.
To put it simply, he wanted money more than his life!
Also, he could leave this damn place and not be threatened by the giant beasts anymore!
"Wait, what is there in the outside world?" Iben quickly chased after the night watcher and asked, "Is there an endless supply of fresh fruits? Is there an endless supply of water and honey? Is there … "
"Everything you can imagine, everything you can't imagine, there is." The night watcher turned around and replied, "It is a beautiful world."
"A beautiful world, a beautiful world … A beautiful world." Iben kept repeating this sentence as if he was possessed. "A beautiful … world!"
Suddenly, this silver divine weapon didn't seem to be so hot anymore … He was a complete madman. After he forgot his initial fear, his brain started to work quickly. "Oh! Honorable [Night Watcher], your most loyal servant, Iben, is at your service … How can we kill the high priest? "
"There is a place …" The night watcher said in a low voice, "There is a place that is suitable for us to make a move … Don't ask about the rest. Just remember one thing. Wait for my signal, and don't hesitate to use the gun in your hand."
"Un, understood!" Ibn nodded. While he was nervous, he also seemed to be a little excited.
…
It was not difficult to leave the former Empress' residence, especially after knowing that there was no vengeful spirit of the former Empress, Iben felt much more relaxed.
When they were about to walk out, Ibben couldn't help but ask curiously, "Speaking of which, how did the former queen die? I heard that the Pharaoh and the former queen were very loving. But … "
Ibben observed the surroundings of his residence. Not only was it dark, but it also looked as if no one had cleaned it for a long time. It was as if this was a room that had been completely forgotten. "But from the looks of it, the Pharaoh doesn't seem to love his queen very much?"
"No." The night watcher, who had always given Ibben the impression of a cold person, seemed to have some fluctuations in his voice. "The Pharaoh's longing for his wife is stronger than any of you can imagine. This is a longing that comes from the depths of his soul. I can feel it. "
Ibben pursed his lips behind his back, as if he didn't agree … What you feel is not the taste of love, but the sour smell of a house that has not been cleaned for many years, right?
"So, you seem to know how the former Empress died?"
It seemed that no matter which era people were from, they all had something in common. The soul of gossip that pushed humans to evolve was now burning in Ibben's heart.
"The Pharaoh killed her with his own hands."
Unexpectedly, the night watcher gave Ibben an unbelievable answer.
Ibben laughed subconsciously and patted the night watcher's shoulder. "Hahaha! Brother, you also know how to joke? I didn't know that the Pharaoh would kill his queen with his own hands … You, you are telling the truth?! "
"Who knows if it's true or not." The night watcher said indifferently, "He said it himself."
"He said it to you?" Ibben frowned.
The night watcher said indifferently, "Usually, no one comes to this place, but the Pharaoh will come here himself … quietly. He will sit in the Empress' room and repent. During this period of time, I temporarily stayed in the basement and occasionally heard some of it. Of course, it's up to you to believe it or not … Anyway, no matter how the former Empress died, it has nothing to do with me. I only have one goal. "
"Kill the high priest … and leave this place?" Ibben asked subconsciously.
The night watcher suddenly stopped, and Ibben bumped into him due to inertia. "Brother?"
The night watcher waved his hand and pulled Ibben to a corner to hide. They were about to reach the exit of the palace, and they could even vaguely see the stars in the night sky.
The night watcher put his finger near his ear and then looked up. He even held a strange item in his hand and placed it in front of his eyes, facing the ceiling above the palace.
'Night vision goggles?'
For some reason, this name suddenly appeared in Ibben's mind. He was quite surprised because he had never seen such a thing before. How did he know the name of this thing?
"So there is one here … Heh, you are so careful." The night watcher sneered, "You think you will be absolutely safe if you hide behind it … Naive."
"What … what did you find?" Ibben asked hurriedly.
The night watcher slowly took out a black [Divine Artifact] and put a short black barrel on it. Then, he suddenly fired a shot at the ceiling above the palace!
The sound was not particularly loud, but it was not soft in this particularly quiet corridor … Ibben was startled, fearing that the sound would attract the other guards in the palace. He was so scared that his face turned pale.
But at this moment, there was a sudden sound in front of him … It seemed that something fell from the ceiling above.
He subconsciously walked forward and saw that it was a palm-sized metal box … There were a few leaf-like things in the four corners of the metal box!
In an instant, a new name suddenly appeared in Ibben's mind: Drone.
"This … This is?" Ibben picked up the metal box on the ground … Drone. He looked up at the night watcher nervously, "You shot this thing down?"
At this time, the night watchman said casually, "There are many legends about the high priest in the City of the Sun … Legend has it that he knows everything. No matter what happens in the City of the Sun, no matter what bad things those people do, they can't escape the eyes of the high priest. He always judges everyone in the most fair way, right?"
"That's right." Ibben nodded, "And this is a fact. The high priest never makes a mistake … But what does it matter if he knows this thing?"
"This is the secret that your High Priest has never made a mistake." The night watcher lowered his head and glanced at Ibben. "Because what you are holding now is the high priest's [Eye]."
"Eye?!" Ibben was startled. His hands trembled, and he directly threw the drone to the ground, "What … what eye?"
The night watcher said, "I don't have time to explain too much to you. You must act as soon as possible … Since an outsider came in, it means that the exit channel was opened recently. If I miss this chance, I don't know how long I will have to wait … Don't talk nonsense! This is the deposit for you! "
With that, the night watcher took out something from his fur clothes and threw it directly into Ibben's hand.
This was a golden coin that was purer than all the gold he had ever seen in the City of the Sun, but it was engraved with an unknown portrait!
"I like gold coins!" Ibben's eyes suddenly lit up, "Oh! Great [Night Watcher], please order me around like a camel! "
…
…
Royal Palace, Princess Yamanlana's bedroom.
Looking at the night, the latter half of the night was about to pass. The maid of the royal palace suddenly woke up, and then hurriedly looked around. She was relieved when she found that it was not dawn yet.
The maid had to make a lot of preparations before dawn. She hurriedly fetched a basin of water and prepared to bring it into the room for Princess Yamanlana to freshen up.
In front of the door of the princess' room, several white-robed guards stood like statues … The maid blinked her eyes. These white-robed guards were so energetic that they had been standing like this for the whole night.
"I'm here to fetch water for the princess."
The white-robed guard nodded and directly let her in … She came to the door and gently pushed open the door of the bedroom. In the first half of the night, the high priest brought some medicine that could help the princess sleep. After that, the princess fell asleep peacefully.
When the little maid walked into the inner room, she found that the lights were already on. Her Royal Highness the Princess had already woken up.
The princess was now standing in front of a huge mirror made of gold … and her body was naked.
Seeing this, the maid hurriedly fetched clothes and put them on the princess. "Your Highness, there are white-robed guards outside!"
At this time, Her Royal Highness only turned back to look at the little maid. Her brows were slightly furrowed. That kind of cold and sharp gaze immediately made the little maid's heart thump. She hurriedly lowered her head and took two steps back.
"How long have I been sleeping?" The princess' voice was not loud, but it had a majesty that made the maid feel awe.
"Your Highness, after the high priest left, you have been sleeping until now. It's almost dawn," the maid hurriedly replied.
"The high priest?" The princess frowned, "The high priest came back? When? Why don't I remember? "
"In the first half of the night?" The maid looked up and said in confusion, "Your Highness, don't you remember? Last night, during the celebration party, you were attacked by a giant beast! The giant beast then turned into your appearance and tried to kill the temple and the Pharaoh! Everyone was almost scared to death! Fortunately, the high priest came in time and exposed the giant beast and saved you. "
"Giant beast … me?" Her Royal Highness rubbed the space between her eyebrows as if she was tired. She slowly sat down. "I don't remember … I should have just returned and quarreled with Sphynx Cat over the celebration banquet. Why would I attend the banquet?"
"Your Highness?" The maid thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, after being attacked by the giant beast last night, did you get hurt somewhere … so you forgot what happened last night?"
The princess suddenly stood up and hurriedly walked to her bed — she lifted the blanket and saw the [Divine Artifact] on the bed. She subconsciously let out a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness?" The maid did not understand.
The princess shook her head, "My mind is a little confused. I seem to have some recollection of what you said … Wait, wait for me to wake up."
"Your Highness has just woken up. Are you in a daze?" The little maid chuckled.
But the princess casually glanced at her … Only then did the little maid lower her head in fear and trepidation. Then, she couldn't help but raise her head to size up the princess in front of her.
"Is there something on my face?" After noticing the maid's gaze, the princess frowned again.
The maid quickly shook her head and said hurriedly, "No, no … I just, just think that Your Highness is really beautiful! And very handsome! I feel that Your Highness is normal! "
"I don't know what you are talking about." The princess shook her head and then thought for a while and said, "I still can't remember. Come, put on my clothes, I want to go out. "
"The sun is not up yet, where are you going, Your Highness?" The maid asked curiously.
"The temple." The princess said indifferently, "Since the high priest is back, I need to see him and discuss some important matters with him."
"But … but it's not dawn yet … Okay, I got it." The little maid hurriedly took the princess's clothes from the cupboard and brought it over.
At this time, the princess walked in front of the golden mirror again and looked at herself … She lowered her head and touched her body, "Why do I feel … a little?"
"Your Highness, your skin is so good!" The maid said enviously.
The princess's frown deepened … She was not the kind of princess who hid in the palace to enjoy life, but a warrior who would go out with the soldiers to fight the giant desert beast … Skin, how could her skin be so smooth?
"Later on, that giant beast that could transform, was it killed?"
"I don't know?" The maid shook her head, "But the high priest asked the white robed guards to bring it back to the temple. I heard that it was to be studied … Anyway, I am not very clear, the Pharaoh said that this matter is not to be mentioned again."
"The Pharaoh …" The princess frowned and thought for a while before saying indifferently, "Before going to the temple, I will go to the Pharaoh's palace … You can send someone to inform him first."
"Oh … Okay." The maid pursed her lips and smiled.
Although they often quarreled and even went tit-for-tat, the princess still cared about the Pharaoh …
"What are you smiling about?"
"No … Nothing!"
The princess shook her head and was about to go out when she suddenly stopped, then pointed at the thing beside the bed and asked, "Oh right, when was this oil lamp placed here?"
"Oil lamp?" The maid was stunned, then thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, this oil lamp was brought back by you, right? Then, I left it here … "
Princess Royal Highness subconsciously picked up the oil lamp and looked at it casually. 'It's just an ordinary oil lamp … Why did I bring it with me?'
She frowned, after waking up, she felt that everything was filled with a strange and even incongruous feeling.
