Chapter 1737 Queen of Hell (8)

After settling in Filch and Lawrence, Severus and Susanna returned to the National Library of France.

Lucius, disguised as Alessandro, had gone somewhere, and Gongsei was the only one in the reading room.

"How did it go?" Severus said.

"Do you remember those urban sculptures on the Place de la Concorde?" Gongsei asked.

"Like Strasbourg?" Severus asked.

"You can understand it as the personification of the city." Gongsei said, turning a book around and handing it to Severus. "Thebes was also personified, but it was represented by a male warrior.

, he was armed with a compound bow and a Hyksos-style scimitar.”

"So?" Severus asked.

"His name is Wasset. He was established during the Thirteenth Dynasty of Thebes. Later they corrected themselves to the Seventeenth Dynasty of Egypt. You know that the pharaoh likes to use his own image to create statues. The queen mother of the Eighteenth Dynasty, Yahho

Tepu was also a Theban. After driving away the Hyksos, she razed Avalis to the ground, including the temple of Sobek, which was once a symbol of royal power during the Seventeenth Dynasty.

Similar to Amon and Horus, it is often worshiped together with the god Hapi, who represents the Nile. In Egyptian mythology, Leosiris is the god of resurrection, rainfall and plants. Wherever water flows, the land will become fertile."

"Get to the point." Severus said impatiently.

"Avalis is the city of Abydos. Yahotep ordered it to be razed and was cursed by the gods. Her family later perished quietly. During the time of worshiping Sobek,

The Nile River has just reached its highest point, and any more will cause floods. Kings even use Sobek's name as their title, such as Sobek Kara, who is a queen, and the inheritance rights of the Luna family are in Tut.

The reign of Moss I was over, because Amenhotep I had no male descendants. Thutmose I married the former pharaoh's princess Amos, and their daughter was the future Hatshepsut.

, and Thutmose II was only the son of Thutmose I and his concubine. I dare say that this pharaoh’s family life must have been very painful..."

"That's enough." Severus interrupted Gongsei. "Abydos has been found, and so has Avalis. Don't confuse them."

"You have a bow, right?" Gong Saiyi asked.

"Why are you asking?"

"When Kamos I was buried, there was a bow among the funerary objects. If the anthropomorphic symbol of Thebes, Vasset, carries a bow, then Kamos I being buried with a bow can be regarded as being buried with a 'scepter'

Yes, look." Gong Saiyi crossed his hands and raised them in front of his chest. "The Pharaoh's gilded coffin usually holds a flail in the left hand. It can be used as a tool for threshing grains or as a torture instrument. It usually symbolizes power and is used for whipping.

The other hand holds a shepherd's staff, which represents the Pharaoh's authority to shepherd his people."

"Do you think the bow and scimitar also represent royal power?" Severus asked.

"You'd better figure out what happened to your bow." Gong Saiyi said, "After we destroyed the crocodile sculpture, the magic power gradually recovered. I was not affected because I was wearing the scarab amulet. If that is a

A product of alchemy..."

"That bow can ignore the rules and be used wherever there are crocodile sculptures." Severus said.

"I think Sobek's field is more suitable, oh, why didn't I think of that at the time, Nile God." Gong Saiyi complained.

"What bow?" Susanna asked.

Severus took out the bow he had found while searching for sun gold in the Alps from the shapeshifting lizard skin pocket.

It seemed very useless at the time, because with a wand, it had no use other than shooting farther. It was like a failed experiment. At this time, the small buckler repaired by Lyle Meyer also floated out, and it circled around

Severus circled slowly.

"The Sissoxians lost to the Egyptians because their technology lagged behind the Egyptians." Gongsei looked at the bow and said, "But it was these nomads who introduced horses and chariots to Egypt."

"You want to say that those invaders contributed to Egypt's progress?" Severus asked.

"The Seventeenth Dynasty spent too much energy and financial resources on building pyramids and offering sacrifices. It stopped building pyramids after the Eighteenth Dynasty. To be precise, it was during the reign of Ahmose I that the workers who built the pyramids were used to build city fortifications.

.”

"And the Valley of the Kings," Susanna said.

"The Valley of the Kings was built on the order of Hatshepsut. Neither Yahotep nor Yahmose I was buried in the Valley of the Kings. After Thutmose III succeeded to the throne, all traces of her rule were eradicated.

And began a large-scale military expansion. After the Battle of Kadesh, the power of the Sisokos completely disappeared. Later, he appointed his son Amenhotep II as his co-ruler. Amenhotep II

The title of king in this world is that of the god Amun..."

"Have you said enough?" Severus interrupted Gongsei's ramblings again.

"This!" Gongsei levitated a piece of paper on the table. "This is a hymn of Yachhotep."

"Irma read it," Severus said, adding quickly, "In English."

"Hotep means peace, and the moon in Egypt usually represents mummification and war." Gongsei wrote hieroglyphs in the air with a magic wand. "Names are very important. They are related to the immortality of the dead. The Egyptians believe that as long as people

If you remember the name of the deceased, he will not really die. You can see many murals in Egyptian tombs, in which the name of the owner of the tomb has been repeatedly carved many times. Later people will also chant the name of the deceased when offering sacrifices, Tut

Moss III's eradication of Hatshepsut's name can be understood as eradicating the evidence of her existence, and it can also be understood as eradicating her resurrection, just like Ahmose I eradicating the traces left by the previous dynasty, and the Hyksos

The evidence of his rule over Egypt is the same, but he still funded the completion of the final pyramid, just as Louis XVIII built Napoleon's tomb."

"But Napoleon demolished many buildings of the Bourbon royal family, such as the tower on the Île de la Cité where Louis XVI and his family were imprisoned."

"But he rebuilt the Saint-Denis church." Gongcey said.

"Are you singing his praises?" Severus asked.

"In addition to claiming to be the son of the god Ra, the Hyksos also worshiped Seth and built a temple for him." Gongsei said, "The ruler of the Fourteenth Dynasty of Egypt claimed to be the favorite of Seth.

The ruler of Avalis, Seth was once considered the supreme god, and later became a foreign god and a god of chaos, but to the Hyksos he represented the storm god and his companion.

Astarte is similar to Hathor. I am checking who Hathor’s true love is. Amenemhat I was the founder of the Twelfth Dynasty. He restored chaos to Thebes and Egypt.

Towards a stable situation, he was also a very lonely man. I think the person who left that line seemed to think that Amenemhat I was more like Napoleon I than Thutmose III."

"Why do you think that?" Susanna asked.

"It feels like." Gong Saiyi said calmly, "The war has reached the cemetery. I am like a lost person who has strayed from the right path."

"What?" Susanna asked confused.

"This is what a pharaoh in Egypt said. The cemetery is the resting place of the dead. We should not disturb it without authorization. He was once a good person, but it is a pity that he did not persist to the end like Amenemhat I. He and Amenemhat I

Amenemhat is too lonely," Gongsei said.

"Amenemhat I used Amon as his title, but in his heart he hoped that he would be Hathor's true love?" Severus asked indifferently.

"You can understand that." Gong Saiyi said with a wry smile, "I seem to understand why Hathor is pestering him."

"How do you say 'I love you' in ancient Egyptian?" Susanna asked curiously.

"Uh~ ti mi mmak." Gong Saiyi replied in confusion.

"Which word is you and which word is me?" Susanna asked.

"Anything else?" Severus asked.

"I think it's great to be able to find these in such a short time, boss." Gong Saiyi said angrily.

"Keep looking." Severus said to Gongsei, and then walked away with his bow.

But Susanna did not follow him. Instead, she stayed and looked at the information on the table with Gong Saiyi.

"Damn foreign accent."

Severus muttered as he walked away and continued looking for Lucius Malfoy.

Timimak, or ti mepitk, both means "I love you" in ancient Egyptian.

I heard that Pony was slapped, and the man who slapped him was talking about the slogan that the French army shouted at Saint-Denis Church when they went out to fight. It was not about knocking down Pony.

Screaming such a majestic slogan but getting slapped like a woman...
