Vol 2 Chapter 172: Road to heaven

Chapter 172: The Road to Heaven
People such as Moses need the guidance of faith, disciples such as Medanzo also need the guidance of faith, and Amon, who is exploring alone, needs a faith. At this time, Amon may not know what ambitious aspirations he made clear as he passed through the Syrian desert. If it is to be accomplished, it is by no means a state that ordinary gods can possess, which will run through the transcendence of eternal life.
...
Amon was not happy or slow, but he didn't stop. He had entered a state of ecstasy. For many days without rest and without food, he seemed to be walking in an endless river. This is an incredible experience. I have never heard of anyone who has broken through the endless trials and mastered the Nine Level Achievement of the Source of Power when he is on the road, but Amon is.
When that ray of thinking soul walked out of the Syrian desert, it seemed to have gone through many generations, such as a drop of shuttle water that was almost invisible in the stormy waves, but was not drowned.
How to describe this feeling? When walking in the sun, he was like a drop of water, reflecting and refracting various colors in the world. After going through many life experiences, it is like flying birds flying over the mirror again and again, leaving clear reflections disappearing again and again. When Amon opened her eyes again to look at the world, she suddenly realized that there were countless him in the eyes of different people, just like the endless experience. This countless number of thoughts reflect the shadow he left in this world, as if it were countless incarnations, which need to be verified one by one, and finally verify that clear self.
With this achievement, you can be called a on the continent, as if you have endless life, you can also have the realm of the source of divine power, and draw the power to grow and repair the soul. After returning to God, Amon can't help but sigh, if he doesn't take this step, some things will never be realized. He is also thinking about another thing-maybe he needs to build a place.
Amon has realized how dangerous his experience is, and he is shocked by the turbulent waves in silence. He actually entered the meditation state while walking and passed the endless test. Out of his instinctual self-protection, he lost his traces by running mana, and walked in the desert without being disturbed by accident. Due to his long-term habit of using divine magic, his mana is deep and long, and he can sneak in unconsciously for a month, without any clutter. If he didn't do any of these things, he wouldn't be able to walk at all.
Recalling that when he faced the test of losing strength and reinventing himself, he was in a very dangerous situation. If it was on the battlefield or in other fighting environments, he would probably not survive! The cost of achievement is huge, not only the test itself but also the situation in the world. He didn't want his disciples to be as dangerous as himself. If he already knew what was happening on the road, he still had to rely on luck to run wild. This was not courage but foolishness.
The place he wants to build is not a city-state like Salem, but a place like the Jiulian Shrine where the envoys of the Eju Jiulian God System live. It is separated from the outside by a strange space, a very good cultivation environment, suitable for The disciples meditate intently, and at a certain time, they can provide protection that is not available elsewhere in the world. Such a place is not a real kingdom of gods, but a cave house where the so-called gods live in myths and legends.
Amon had already chosen a place in his mind and gave it a name called "Eden." At present, there are many things. When the city of Salem gains a foothold on the Duke Plains, it will gather its disciples to plan the morning Eden.
...
A month later, at the checkpoint of the Syrian border at Hati Kingdom, an idle soldier was staring into the distance, and a man suddenly came from the deserted Gobi Desert. He couldn't help rubbing his eyes, thinking that he had seen the flowers. The man appeared out of thin air!
When he put down his hand, he was sure that he was not mistaken. Someone really walked across the desert. This person had no car or horse, and didn't even carry a parcel! He quickly grabbed his weapon and shouted, "Who, where did it come from, and what?"
The man replied loudly: "My name is Amon, and I am from Eju, and come to fight her at the invitation of Celia, the great theologian of your country!"
The garrison throughout the checkpoint was completely alarmed. The sirens blew the horn of the assembly and led the soldiers to greet him. He stood at the intersection and saluted Amon: "The distinguished great theologian Ge Lie and the governor of the city of Suya are early. There is an order, no matter where General Amon enters Hatti, he will be treated with the most solemn etiquette, sending horses and guards to you to the city-state to arrange everything. We have the best carriage here For you, I will personally send you to the city. "
Amon smiled: "I claim to be Amon. I have no tokens and you haven't verified your identity. Is it just a grand reception?"
The level officer replied: "Apart from General Amon, the Megatron nations, who has the kind of spirit you have to walk through the thousands of deserts with your hands and walk alone. Besides, I have seen you on the battlefield!"
Amon was ushered in the checkpoint. The chief wanted him to eat and ordered the carriage and the guards to prepare. Amon waved his hand and said, "No, I ’m going to a duel. Please wait until the duel is over. Please tell Suya. The city-state said that Amon had entered the territory of Hati and would be waiting for the great theorist of Celia at the designated place. "
The chief said anxiously: "But Lord Ge Lie said hello, and his old man wanted to see you."
Amon smiled: "It's natural to meet when it's time to meet. I still have something to do. I won't bother for the time being."
After he had spoken, he stepped forward, appeared far away, and then disappeared in a few flashes. Everyone was stunned. It is said that these border checkpoints were ordered to meet Amon, even if they wanted to stop Amon, it is impossible for Amon to achieve today's achievements, which are almost the same as those of the human gods. The reason why he showed up and walked through the checkpoint was just to say hi to the song.
...
Amon entered Eju and went straight to the east bank of the inland lake, to the southern end of the Black Fire Swamp, which was very close to the place where he and Celia had duel, and it was the place where Yunmeng came to meet. Coming from the Duke Plains, we have to cross the area of ​​shrubs and thorns growing from thick bushes and large swamps of silt swamps. There is no way to do it, but we cannot stop the Iron Beast King who grew up in the swamp from an early age.
He not only saw Yunmeng, but also Link and Aesop in the bushes beside the swamp. When the two beasts saw Amun, they stepped forward to salute. The Iron Beastmaster held down his front claws and lowered his head. The movements were all the same. Amon was happy when he saw it. He asked with a smile: "I only let Yunmeng come to meet, how come the two of you are here? Aesop, didn't I let Medanzo take you to Memphis to find Siou, how could it be here? ? "
Aesop replied, "Why did you go this long on this road? I have already returned from Monex, and talked with Siou to organize a caravan to Salem, but only if there is a way to pass. I After returning to Salem, Link and Yunmeng have explored a route in the swamp. I will take a field trip to determine the time it takes for the caravan to pass, what dangers will occur on the road, what preparations to make, and calculate the cost. How old is it? We know you're coming, so we've waited here specifically. It's been a dozen days. "
Amon did take a bit longer, and he didn't even think he would go this long, but he passed the endless test, and one month has been amazing!
A lot of things happened in this month, Medanzo and Aesop quietly came to Monfis and found the noble rich businessman Siou. Xiou's business is getting bigger and bigger today. A year ago, Amon also received a heavy investment to expand his business in various city-states and buy a large number of camel cars and horses.
This is obviously to prepare for large-scale long-distance trade. For the time being, the money is not used for nothing, but the money is given by Amon, and of course Siou will do it. The news of Amon's departure from the Aegean Empire is also known. He is also worried about Amon's situation and fears that his future business may not be very easy to do. He has been the logistics quartermaster of the An-La Corps. He has made many generals during the war. Now many large businesses are in cooperation with the official. Losing the backing of Amon may cut off important financial resources.
At this time, Medanzo visited the door of the noble rich businessman's former slave, Aesop, to discuss a very important business.
A new city-state is currently being built in the Duke Plains, called the city of Salem, with Aesop serving as its chief. Of course, the construction of a new city-state requires a lot of manpower, material and financial investment. Medanzo asked the caravans of the various organizations in the European Union to transport supplies to Salem. Mutually beneficial business.
They deliberately found Siou, wanting a continuous supply of military supplies. On the other hand, Salen City has not traded with the outside world because the roads are closed and people have not seen the benefits. Large businesses such as Siou took the lead in exploring business channels and gave other people demonstrations and guidelines.
It is necessary to explain Amon's current delicate identity. Although he killed Prince Snake and left Eju, he was not publicly wanted by the empire, and it seems that the court and the court deliberately avoided talking. On the one hand, of course, there were thousands of soldiers testifying in the scene of his killing of Prince Snake. It was the Prince who ordered the attack first, and the general only shot in self-defense. On the other hand, the reason why Pharaoh sent Snake to perform this task was to have the intention of killing with a knife.
Prince Snake was the eldest son of Rasis II and was not a supporter of Elahert's Reformation. Having his own power in the country was one of the factors that caused political instability. Now that he has been killed by Amon, Ellacht will only sneak away, and the general will play the last "extra heat" before leaving Eju.
A peace treaty has been signed between Hati and Eju, and trade has been resumed. It is entirely reasonable and legal for Siou to organize caravan exchanges in the name of a deal with the Syrian city-state. The so-called munitions materials do not necessarily mean armors and weapons. All kinds of items and materials that may be used in marching operations are counted. Naturally processed finished products or semi-finished products are naturally the best. To do this kind of trading often requires military Relationship or background.
After arriving at Hati, the caravan still had to pass through the territory controlled by the Syrian city-state, so Amon planned to talk to Gelie, one of the things was to open the passage.
Aesop privately gave Siou a list of the supplies needed for Salem, as well as things from the Duke Plains. Profitable is the instructions of benefactor Amon. On the surface, it is normal and legal transnational trade. Of course, Siou nodded and agreed, and immediately made preparations. However, doing business requires accounting for costs. In addition to taxes at border crossings, there are risks along the way and freight costs. No one can be sure before the road is opened.
Link has already explored the path in the Black Fire Swamp in accordance with Amon's instructions. The path that can be opened in the shortest time is found by Yunmeng with four large iron beasts. He twists and turns in the Black Fire Swamp, passing by intermittently. The hard land above the surface eventually leads to the eastern shore of the inland lake. However, it is not easy to open the road. It is necessary to fill the low-lying areas, eliminate bush thorns along the way, and dig up some rugged rocks. If all the staff of Salem are used, it will take at least half a year.
After Aesop returned to Salem, he asked to follow the designed route first to calculate the transportation cost through this road and the maximum capacity of the caravan. Yunmeng just happened to meet Amon, and Link came with Aesop.
After listening, Amon frowned slightly: "Does it take half a year to mobilize all the manpower available in Salem?"
Lin Ke smiled bitterly: "It takes only half a year to open the road. To fully repair it, it only takes at least one or two years for the current staff of Salem City. But the situation does not allow us to wait too long, the Assyrian Kingdom. The people who came over from the original have named the city state as Enlier City. They are getting more and more people, and the walls are getting bigger and bigger. I am afraid that it will be a new conflict soon. If this road is not repaired as soon as possible, then We will be alone in the Duke Plains. "
Amon thought for a while and answered, "I will solve this problem. You first build the checkpoints and fortresses on the other side of the road, and then you can repair the marsh from there. How much can be repaired? , Try to be able to make people pass after one month, and let two carriages go wrong after three months. "
Aesop exclaimed: "This is not a miracle!"
Link patted Aesop's shoulder and said, "Of course God created the miracle!" Then he said to Amon: "I'm also curious, why do you have this confidence?"
Amon smiled slightly: "The so-called miracles are also created by humans. Moreover, this is not a miracle, it is nothing more than the accumulation of human and material resources. Salem now lacks manpower and sufficient supplies, but the Syrian city-state has, as long as Talk about the conditions, you can ask them to repair the road. "
Aesop nodded: "I see, this is also a mutually beneficial transaction. We have the treasure of Goddess Mu Yun. We can pay people to build roads from the outside, as long as the city of Seya agrees."
Amon suddenly remembered something, and rushed to Yisuo: "You came just right, I have something to ask for advice."
Aesop was a little surprised: "You are a god-like person, what can I ask you?"
Amon asked with a smile: "I heard you told the story of the sage Pythagoras in the distance, claiming to have seen it with your own eyes, and you are actually literate, wouldn't you be a slave in your lifetime?"
Aesop bowed his head, "My hometown is far away. My father was a bard. He was killed by pirates on the long journey. I became a slave at an early age. I was resold everywhere, and I went to many places."
Amon: "You don't need to mention the sad past. I know you have been to many places and you are very knowledgeable. I have never seen anyone like you know the legends around you. Have you heard the legends about the Duque Plains?"
Aesop replied carefully: "There are many stories about Duke Town, but I know you are a miner from Duke Town. Some of the stories are told, I am afraid it is offensive and disrespectful to you, so I never mentioned it."
Amon smiled bitterly: "That's the case, I should have asked you already! It's not too late to ask now, have you heard a very special legend?"
Aesop looked up and asked, "What is special, is it the battle of the gods? There are not many folk stories. You have stayed at the Archives of the Temple of Isis. If you look up the books there, there must be more than folk myths. . "
Amon's eyes brightened: "There is no need to say more about the battle of the gods. I have known a few of the parties. Are there any older, longer-lasting legends?"
Aesop frowned and thought: "I vaguely remember a legend, the story is very bizarre, about a tower. You have been to Barron, the capital of Barron. You should know that there is now a magnificent tower on the outskirts of Barron, called The Gate of the Gods was built by King Baron to pay homage to the Marduk. It may be related to a story once spread on the continent. "
...
It is said that before the war of the gods, the Anuna Kai system was the era of the rule of the Anu, but Amat, the mother of Anu, held the Tablet of the deities of the deity and had supreme power. Later, Amat gave Jane Destiny to his other son, King Gut, in an attempt to make King Gut the main god. This caused a lot of dissatisfaction with the gods, and eventually led to the division of the deities and civil war.
The legendary story of that tower should take place before the battle of the gods, because the main in the story is still Anu. At that time, there were no duke town or duke town's miners. The duke town area was a thousand miles of fertile soil. The people living there were strong and smart, but they were so smart that they were too conceited and even tried to pry into the secret of the .
They built a huge city-state, originally located in the area of ​​Salem today, and also planned to build the most tower ever seen in the world, called the Tongtian Tower. People have ambitious work to burn brick slabs under the scorching sun and pile the bricks with asphalt. As the tower gets higher and higher, they hope to pass through the tower to ascend to the kingdom of the gods.
The noise of the people alarmed the sleeping Amat, so she called Anu to ask what was going on? Anu reported on the construction of the tower and convened the gods to discuss it. It is said that all the gods were present at the time, and everyone decided to stop it. So the gods exerted their divine power together, disturbing people's language and making everyone unable to understand what each other was saying. It is said that this is the origin of different languages ​​in mainland China today.
