The unification war between Upper and Lower Egypt was very simple. After Narmai inherited Upper Egypt, he joined forces with Lower Egypt to destroy all the primitive tribes nearby. Then, the two Egyptians merged after a discussion. No one knew why exactly. In short, the two gods decided to form a unified dynasty after a short discussion. Narmai would be the king of Egypt, and the gods of Lower Egypt would leave.
Narmai's crown was red and white, combining the white crown of Upper Egypt and the red crown of Lower Egypt.
However, when Lan Mu saw the two Egyptian totems fused together, he found it strangely familiar.
The guardian of Upper Egypt was an eagle, and the guardian of Lower Egypt was a snake. The two combined into one, forming a guardian with an eagle's head, eagle's claws, and a snake's body.
Lan Mu looked at it with its wings spread out. It looked like … Yinglong!
"It should be a coincidence …" Lan Mu thought of the legend of Yinglong helping the Yellow Emperor. The east and west were very far apart, but then he remembered that Egypt had sent an expedition team to the east to find the end of the world …
This was the Egyptians' own doing. They were living too happily.
They were self-sufficient in terms of productivity, and they had good harvests every year. Their flood-control and smelting techniques were also very advanced. Out of curiosity, they formed expeditions and went to different parts of the world.
Because the flood had just subsided, these Egyptians spread the seeds of civilization all over the world.
Lan Mu shook his head at this thought. This guess was too shocking, and even he found it hard to accept.
However, the flood was definitely real. This catastrophe destroyed many of the budding civilizations in the world, and the main culprit was the Egyptian gods. Of course, these gods still had some sense of responsibility. They chose a few valuable primitive civilizations to protect, so that they would not be wiped out, and left some seeds for other civilizations.
At this point, they did not want to rule over humans anymore. There was no benefit to it. They even had to become humans' nannies. Obviously, they did not want to accept this. But now, this group of gods had left and allowed the humans to rule themselves. If the so-called history was true, then Narmai's successor, Menes, would be the first pharaoh of Ancient Egypt.
He was the first human ruler. Since then, every pharaoh of every generation was a human.
Pharaoh was Pharaoh. Some later translations added the word 'King', but it was not accurate to call it Pharaoh King, because Pharaoh was not a king.
It meant a palace, which meant the people who lived in the palace. This palace obviously referred to the palace where God used to live. The Pharaoh only represented the people who were allowed to live in the temple. Because God had left, the Pharaoh became the actual ruler, but he was definitely not the king in name.
At least in ancient Egypt, the meanings of the pharaoh and the king were clearly distinguished. After the end of the Mythological Era, Egypt no longer had a king, only a pharaoh.
When Lan Mu found the capital of the Nile Valley, he was finally able to verify this point.
It took him a day and a night to reach the most magnificent capital city.
In this barbaric period, the ancient Egyptians lived in abundance and built huge cities.
Gold was their favorite item. Almost everyone wore gold equipment because the armor of the gods was gold in color.
When Lan Mu flew into the air, many people cheered and saluted, but they were all wondering which god this was. There was no golden armor, and they had never seen one before.
Lan Mu landed on the ground, and the people saluted him with their hands on their foreheads. The men used their right hands, and the women used their left hands, but they did not touch their foreheads.
He noticed that most of the people in the city were Asians, some were black, and only a few were white.
"God who crossed the sky, may I know your name?"
Lan Mu translated the words, thought for a moment, and replied, "Mu."
"May I ask if you are here to replace Menes as king?" When they said this, the people looked forward to it from the bottom of their hearts. They really hoped that God would continue to rule over them.
Lan Mu asked a few more questions, and then he understood that the last king, Nalmai, was planning to leave soon.
There was also a funny situation: Menes himself did not want to be king.
Nalmai had already left, but Menes refused to accept it. He even made the whole country beg Nalmai to stay and not abandon his people.
This dragged on, and the people desperately hoped that the next king would be a god.
The three thousand years of the Mythological Era had deeply rooted this idea. Now that God wanted to return the throne to the humans, the humans did not want it …
When Lan Mu, this' god ', appeared, the people thought that Nalmai had agreed to the pleas and asked Lan Mu to inherit the throne.
…
Lan Mu did not answer these people's questions. Instead, he flew straight to the largest palace, which was obviously the palace, or rather, the temple.
In the temple, there was a 2.7-meter tall giant talking to a 1.6-meter tall Asian man. When he saw Lan Mu fly in, he only smiled.
"Menes, a civilization can never rely on outsiders to grow." The giant was Nalmai. He obviously saw Lan Mu, but he only smiled and continued talking to the humans.
The only human in the temple was Menes, the future Pharaoh.
He said with tears, "How can humans rule over themselves? This is against the law! "
"I have to leave this place. My family and friends are all gone. They are waiting for me in the sky. I have to go. Our interference has already brought disaster upon us. Apophis and the Great Flood have already made us realize our mistakes. That is our punishment … We cannot continue to make the same mistake. "Narmai's will was very firm. He had to leave.
Menes said, "Why? How can God be wrong? Who dares to punish God? "
Nalmai took out a blueprint. On it was the side view of a building. It was as clear as a picture.
Lan Mu quickly went to take a look. Nalmai did not stop him, and Menes was completely absorbed in the blueprint.
It was a beautiful triangular building, the pyramid that Lan Mu was familiar with. He also noticed that the blueprint showed the Doomsday Pyramid in the depths of the Bermuda Trench.
"Menes, your world is unique. It was born naturally, but it is full of unnaturalness. This is a world that belongs to you, and we've already been abandoned. This thing is your world's secret. We also want to understand it, but it is completely beyond our understanding. Leaving is the best choice. Otherwise, the situation will only get worse, "Nalmai said.
Lan Mu knew what he meant. Even God was afraid of the pyramid! However, Menes obviously did not understand.
Menes asked, "If we understand it, you can come back, right?"
Lan Mu and Nalmai were stunned. Nalmai then laughed, "Yes. If you can solve its secret, we can come back."
As he spoke, a golden scorpion armor appeared on Nalmai's body. Lan Mu looked closely. It was a mechanical scorpion armor.
It was probably made of biomass and alloy. It was hidden in the body and could be activated when necessary. It was a type of armor.
The six scorpion legs carried him out of the palace. Menes held the blueprint in his hand and shouted, "God, we will definitely decipher its secrets. I will not become the king of Egypt. That position will always be yours. I will become a pharaoh and protect this land until you return!"
Nalmai said, "Whether it is king or god, it is just a title. Sooner or later, you will also become so-called gods, traversing the sky. However, this path is extremely difficult and long. If you fail, before the calamity destroys you, go to the west of the desert where our Sun Boat once anchored! There, we will leave you with a chance of survival. "
"This is all we can do, Menes."
As he spoke, Nalmai soared into the sky. Everyone in the city looked up at him as he disappeared through the clouds.
Lan Mu hurriedly followed and flew into the sky.
Everyone who saw the two gods soar into the sky cried loudly with tears streaming down their faces.
Egypt entered the era of the pharaohs.
