Chapter 703: Chapter 249: Seeing the Sun

“`

“Go in.”

“It seems these wraiths still can’t harm them, so you all should put away your plans.”

“If there were a chance, do you think I would willingly have come this far?”

Outside the Sun City, Ramses II gave his final instructions.

Behind him, the Benben Stone, resembling a small pyramid, hovered in the center of the crowd.

It received the light from the sky, scattering warm sunlight and dispelling distracting thoughts from those who accompanied him.

In truth, within the hearts of these Egyptian nobles, they were not entirely in agreement with the Pharaoh’s decision.

After all, the Egyptians’ enslavement of the Hebrews had persisted for thousands of years. Now, someone suddenly told them that despite the divine oracle’s decree to wipe them out completely, he advocated for sparing these Sin People. Even those always loyal to Ramses couldn’t help but have doubts in their hearts.

However, all speculations ceased in front of the Benben Stone. This rumored artifact, said to have been transformed from Mars falling from the sky at the dawn of the Egyptian Dynasty, always stood atop the oldest pyramid and even the pharaohs throughout generations couldn’t control it.

They could only construct similar creations atop their pyramids, turning them into “Capstones,” built in the form of sundials.

The square form symbolized the four directions, and the pointed top symbolized the sundial needle. It was placed at the top of the pyramid, representing the first land that emerged from the Primordial Water. While the circular perimeter symbolized time and the central cross symbolized space, its essence was the embodiment of the Order of Temporal.

Finally, they carved their most fervent inscription onto it: “Build him a sky ladder for ascension, so that he may ascend from the Mortal Realm to The Sky.”

This was the Egyptians’ gateway to The Sky, the ladder of ascension, and no one had ever been able to control it, except Ramses.

So, in this time when Ra had not manifested for a long while, no one dared to question his ideas.

“Go on, I’ve driven him away three times, now it’s my turn to meet him.”

“Sun City… God will watch over all of this.”

Striding forward, the ocean of the deceased parted before Ramses.

No matter what thoughts they harbored, at that moment, everyone followed the pharaoh.

Since the Benben Stone chose Ramses, it must have its reason.

Even the most devout believers wouldn’t question his authority now.

…

Crunch crunch…

The sound of bones grinding and flesh colliding echoed occasionally, and aside from a few, those accompanying couldn’t help but feel jitters.

The stench of rotting flesh and blood spread, and without the light of the Benben Stone, quite a few people might have died from panic or become plagued.

Fortunately, reality held no “what ifs.” As they moved inward, the clash of weapons and voices came one after another. In the center of the city, The Temple like a pyramid loomed in sight.

With it as the center, within thousands of meters were packed with people. Some held children, some leaned on canes, but most were the young.

After all, amidst these incessant natural disasters, only the vigorous had a better chance of survival.

In that crowd, however, the most captivating was the elderly man standing in the very center.

He lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his Serpent Staff, with divine light swirling around him.

The wraiths blocked by the Guards were merely the lucky ones that slipped through. Countless deceased surrounded this small city.

Beneath the Earth, the skeletal remains of beasts crawled through the soil; above in The Sky, skeletal birds let out piercing cries. But they were all blocked by that layer of divine light, and even in the eyes of the Pharaoh, he could see even more at this moment.

An illusory scroll unfolded in The Sky, and the power it emitted constantly guided the wraiths to arrive. And the true adversary faced by the elderly man holding the Scepter was indeed it. If not for the existence of the scroll, the undead of the entire city might have been easily wiped out by him.

This was God’s Strength and the reason Ramses had to arrive.

Initially, Messe’s power was not nearly this strong, so he believed he still had a chance to resist him. But now, unless All Gods directly descended here, he couldn’t think of a way to counteract.

“Besides, it doesn’t matter anymore. In the whole world, from ancient times to now, only the Nile River Basin could support the survival of a civilization. The oases on the deserts can only sustain tribes, unable to give birth to a civilization comparable to Egypt.”

“If they can’t find a better place, I needn’t do anything; they will die out on their own. And if they still manage to find a place to reside outside of here, it proves that their god is still performing miracles.”

“And Ra… had no inhibition over this.”

Witnessing this miraculous scene, Ramses once again strengthened his resolve.

He strode forward, heading towards where Messe was.

The living among the wraiths stood so conspicuously that he needed to do nothing else. As they truly approached the circle guarded by the Hebrews, they were quickly discovered.

“Who goes there, stop!”

A sharp rebuke rang out; the guard responsible for this area immediately shouted to stop them, yet the next moment he revealed a look of disbelief.
