Kai stayed in Egypt for five days. His first mission this time was to meet his old friends. He and Hawke had not seen each other for several years. In order to form this special force, Hawke had cut off contact with the outside world for a long time.
Even his family members don't know where he is. Fortunately, this guy is not married, otherwise the cliff will become a green grassland. Foreign women are not that long-term.
The second task is to have a good vacation.
After arriving in Egypt, except for walking around the base on the first day, the rest of the time was spent holding the girl in his arms and playing around Egypt.
It is clear that it is to pluck the wool of the US military, but from the special forces to the US military, not only are they not angry about this behavior, but they secretly encourage and let it go. For the US military, plucking federal wool is simply a required course for every general.
For example, a National Guard major general’s wife went to Los Angeles for shopping and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars a day. As a result, these bills were reimbursed by the major general’s training ammunition.
This is of course a very low-end way of playing, but this situation is very common among the upper echelons of the US military. There are high-end players who do a good job of keeping accounts and receive large sums of benefits without any problems. Others
No one can even check it.
The good thing about the U.S. military is that everything is opaque! Everyone can obviously see that there is something wrong with the accounts, but when someone else mentions military secrets, everyone can only stare.
In short, there are many ways to play, but you can't escape the fact of shedding wool.
It's great for them that Kaiken is complicit. After all, he is a superhero, and an excessive sense of justice has always been the most taboo thing about superheroes among politicians and military officers. They are not sure whether these guys with an excessive sense of justice will
Will target them, after all, they themselves know that their behavior has absolutely nothing to do with justice.
Why is Kai welcomed by all parties? Because he only focuses on his own business and is not interested in other messy things at all. For those gentlemen, this is the best. Now that Kai is blatantly picking up wool, it shows that everyone is on the same side.
. At least this way, they don't need to worry about what Kai will do to them, and everything will be easy to talk about.
Anyway, the federal government has money, and it won’t be spent until it’s wasted.
Kai actually didn't think too much about it, after all, there were too many twists and turns behind it. He just came out and walked around.
Egypt...this is the place where Kai fought.
But this place is completely different from back then.
Those magnificent cities and pyramids built by the Egyptian gods have disappeared in the long river of history, leaving nothing behind.
The pyramids built by the Egyptians later looked magnificent, but compared with those 10,000 years ago, they pale into insignificance. The pyramids in Egypt now exist as mausoleums, but those pyramids back then had practical functions.
functional buildings.
You may not believe it, but those pyramids are considered power stations of the Egyptian Protoss, and they are solar powered!
However, the miraculous thing is that their utilization rate of solar energy is very high. The energy generated by a pyramid is far more than that of today's nuclear power plants... Kai didn't know what the principle was. Kai was also curious at the time, but the Egyptian protoss obviously didn't.
He planned to share their technology, but told him that it was because of the power of the sun god Ra.
Kai just pretended to believe it.
To be honest, modern Egypt is not worth seeing at all. It has little to do with ancient Egypt, or even ancient Egypt. Both the people and the culture here are completely different.
There is a big difference between modern Egyptians and ancient Egyptians in terms of blood. The ancient Egyptians were closer to the Near Eastern race, not African blacks or Arabs. The main ethnic group in modern Egypt is Arabs, and they are not ancient Egyptians.
Descendants of human beings. Since the time of the ancient Roman Empire, ancient Egypt has been invaded by foreigners many times. Under the rule of foreigners, the religion, language, customs and habits of the ancient Egyptians gradually changed beyond recognition.
At the same time, Egypt's economy and culture are also in a mess, causing the cities here to look crowded and dilapidated.
The city of Cairo is yellow, with yellow earth-colored buildings arranged in complex geometric shapes. There is a big gap between Cairo Airport and imagination (this gap between imagination and reality will appear at any time in the future). I originally thought it would be comparable in size to Istanbul.
The level of airport construction in *** cities is almost the same, in fact, it is equivalent to the level of third-tier cities in China. There are not many flights, and the entire airport is empty.
Another impression is that of crowding. The oases on both sides of the Nile River are filled with houses, and there is almost no other space. The Cairo metropolitan area has a population of 21.3 million, which is about the same as the New York metropolitan area, but its area is far different from the New York metropolitan area.
All the space in this city has been filled by the rapidly growing population. There are densely packed and disorderly buildings everywhere. More than 95% of the population lives in dilapidated communities without modern public facilities. Among the world's metropolises, the number of poor people is the largest.
, the worst environment is none other than Cairo.
Because of poverty and rapid population growth, Egypt simply cannot provide so many job opportunities.
Walking on the street, you will find children (the future unemployed army), idle youths, and middle-aged people doing backbreaking jobs such as garbage collection, repairs, and porters. There are not many decent jobs in the entire city.
But even so, you still can't feel the vitality of this city, as if it is a city that is gradually being swallowed by the Sahara, lifeless...
Kai couldn't find any trace of the afterglow of Egyptian civilization in this city, as if the splendid civilization of the Egyptian gods had never been here.
Kai and the cover girl sat on a rickshaw and wandered around Cairo aimlessly. This kind of rickshaw is actually a tricycle, but it has many Egyptian-style decorations on it, which is considered a special means of transportation.
However, when passing the Egyptian Museum, the cover girl suddenly whispered in Kai's ear.
"Someone is following us."
Kai was stunned, he didn't realize it.
"Do you know who it is?" Kai's mind had been haunted by memories of the past, and he didn't even notice that he was being followed.
"have no idea."
The cover girl shook her head.
Egypt is not a peaceful place, especially in recent years. Egypt also had a glorious time. Back then, Egypt was the big brother in the Arab world. It even thought about forming an Arab republic (first merging with Syria, and then trying to attract other countries to join
, but they broke up within two years). When Nasser was in power, Egypt was the most powerful and powerful big brother in the Middle East.
But since the defeat of the war with Israel and Nasser's death from illness, the dream of becoming a great nation has been completely shattered.
Egypt has been in decline ever since.
The strong contrast has caused religious forces in the country to begin to rise. As a result, Egypt has been in chaos in recent years.
It was also because of the chaos that Cairo once again became a battleground between various forces.
There are everyone. It’s a chaotic bunch.
But generally speaking, these people are not likely to offend Americans, except for those religious extremists.
"Probably those religious extremists."
…
In the dark, three calm-looking men silently looked at Kai and the cover girl who were injured in the rickshaw. There was a faint light flashing in their eyes.
But soon, these people turned around and disappeared into the streets.
When they appeared again, they were in an underground ruins in Egypt.
This ruins looks like a temple. But there are no statues of gods around. It looks very strange for a temple to have no statues of gods.
In the center of the temple, next to a circular altar, a man with long hair and bare feet is inserting a cane on the altar. The two crocodile head statues on the handle of the cane are constantly emitting purple light.
It doesn't sound like a good thing.
After the three men saw him, they immediately planned to go forward and report.
But just as they stepped forward, two men with guns came out from behind the huge stone pillars of the temple and stopped them.
The two men shook their heads at them.
Only then did the three of them realize that at some point, a lot of people had come around. They were as quiet as ghosts, just staring at the man next to the altar with pious and fanatical eyes.
The man turned a blind eye to all this, but took out a kettle and a glass. He placed the glass on the altar and filled it with water.
The man rubbed his fingers along the rim of the glass and whispered something in his mouth.
After his fingers stopped, he picked up the cup and drank the water inside. Then he took out a piece of linen cloth and carefully wrapped the glass.
Snapped!
The double-headed crocodile's palm fell hard, shattering the wrapped glass.
Then a woman came to the man respectfully holding a pair of leather sandals.
The man carefully lifted up the cloth wrapped with glass fragments and poured all the glass fragments inside into the sandals.
Then he put on his sandals as if nothing had happened.
The people around him were not surprised by this scene, and it seemed like it was a matter of course.
Soon, the ceremony began.
Well, the opening words are similar to those of most cults, about the world being filthy, and about believing in me to gain eternal life and salvation. In short, it is the same, not surprising.
There are many cults in the United States.
There are many all over the world. There are all kinds of weird and weird teachings.
Especially in recent years, cults have been experiencing explosive growth. There is no way around it. There have been so many weird things in recent years, and gods have come out. As a result, cults have become a hot topic.
Business and all kinds of messy cults are coming out.
The purpose is basically the same, to defraud money and sex. Of course there are exceptions, these things are the real trouble.
Most of the cults around the world are disguised as Christianity, but this is obviously not the case here.
They believe in a god named Amit and believe that he can eliminate all evil in the world. Amit will eventually clean up the entire dirty world and make the world peaceful and peaceful.
If Kai were here, he would know what Amit is.
Amit is not a god and is not worshiped. It is more like a weapon of destruction made by the Egyptian gods. It is used to destroy those beings who dare to break the rules of the gods.
According to the tradition of the ancient Egyptians, the Egyptian gods put the characteristics of what people considered the most dangerous beast on its body: the head of a crocodile, the upper body of a lion (or leopard), and the lower body of a hippopotamus.
Although it is a demon, it destroys evil.
Kai knew better. Amit had died many years ago.
During the Set rebellion, Amit was released by the gods to deal with Set, but was killed by Set. His body was decomposed and discarded in the wilderness.
What happened next is not very clear. It seems that after the Seth rebellion ended, Amit's body was collected. As for whether it was repaired or buried directly, I really don't know.
I didn’t expect that in modern times, there is still such a thing as faith.
This thing has no self-awareness. There are only two kinds of people in its eyes. The guilty ones will be devoured, while the innocent ones will be ignored.
As for what the standard is.
have no idea!
After the ceremony progressed to a certain level, the man came to the front of the altar with his cane and faced all the believers.
"Then who's coming up?"
The believers looked at the man in the center of the temple with both longing and fear.
"Me!" A man raised his hand with courage.
The people around him immediately looked at him and separated a path for the man to walk towards the altar.
As he passed the crowd, everyone touched their foreheads, bowed slightly and pointed their fingers at the man to show respect.
The man walked to the altar.
The cult investment man also rolled up his sleeves at this time, revealing the scale tattoo on his right arm.
The man lowered his head and handed his hands to the cult leader.
The cult leader looked very gentle and gave the male believer an encouraging smile.
"You are very brave. Before our goddess awakens, you are willing to accept the trial of your soul and devote yourself to our gods."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then he placed his double-headed crocodile palm in the middle of the male believer's hand. With the cane swinging gently, he held the male believer's hands again. With this,
At the same time, the tattoos on the cult leader’s arms also started to swing!
Then the man shouted something in a language that no one understood.
As the man shouted, his cane and tattoo stopped swinging at the same time.
The scale tattoo on the arm maintained balance and then turned green!
The cult leader happily shouted to his followers: "Congratulations, you are a good person!"
When the male believer got the answer, he immediately let out a big sigh of relief and shed tears.
The cult leader hugged the believer and said some encouraging words to him.
Other believers also gave the man kind and envious smiles.
Then there was an old woman. She obviously had some obsession with this ritual, and she was eager to get the answer.
She said she had never done a bad thing in her life. She wanted to know whether she was kind.
However, the answer is cruel. The tattoo on the man's arm is heavier on one side... and the tattoo turns red.
The cult leader looked very sad and kept saying sorry to the old woman.
The old woman said sadly that she was a good person.
"I believe in you, I completely believe in you. But the scale of judgment knows everything, and maybe those bad things will happen in the future... How I hope you can survive and see the world we created, a brand new world without sin."
The old woman was equally sad, and then her body suddenly decayed, and her originally rosy complexion suddenly turned gray, as if her vitality had been sucked away in an instant.
The cult leader sadly tried to grab the old woman's hand, but the old woman fell down and was carried out by people on the side.
Then several more people came forward to be judged.
Some are considered good people, while others suffer the same fate as the old woman.
But the remaining believers seemed very calm about this. Those who were considered good people were encouraged and envied. Those who were considered bad people would express sadness and regret, but that was all. When the ceremony was almost completed.
The three people who were stopped arrived at the cult leader's side smoothly.
"Master... we have found the best sacrifice for the goddess' resurrection."
