Journey through the Worlds from the Wilderness

Chapter 644 The Avenger

In the mortal world, after three years of cold and heat, the once prosperous and prosperous royal capital is now shrouded in a depressing and heavy atmosphere, and it is no longer the luxurious scene of the prosperous and prosperous times before.

And all of this is because of Seth's order, in order to show the brilliance of the god of gods, which can be compared with the supreme sun god, to build a tower that can be seen from anywhere in the world.

Construction has always been more difficult than destruction, and building a building worthy of the gods is bound to cost people and money. Seth knows this very well, and this is exactly his purpose.

Now three years have passed, mortals have been enslaved and suffered unspeakably, and some gods have also launched a rebellion, which was then suppressed by the army led by him, and all of this, that person did not respond at all, and seemed to acquiesce in his behavior.

Therefore, Seth felt that he had figured out the attitude of the outsider, and it was time to launch a revenge plan.

……

royal palace.

Seth was wearing half armor, standing on the steps condescendingly, not like a king, but like a warrior.

"Architect, you better bring the news I want to hear."

Seth's tone was flat, but the mortal architect named Wu Xu felt as if the whole sky was falling down, and he couldn't think of any resistance, so he could only kneel respectfully and salute.

"Lord Seth has learned that mortals have been working day and night, and have introduced the fire from the center of the earth into the bottom of the tower, completely perfecting the casting platform." Wu Xu raised his head, handed over the blueprint and tentatively said: "I just don't know. , what will Sir Seth want to cast?"

Seth took the blueprint and looked at it. Hearing this, he glanced at Wu Xu. The coldness in his eyes made Wu Xu tremble, and he quickly added: "The servant has also studied casting skills. If he can understand what your lord thinks, maybe..."

"Okay." Seth interrupted him, put away the drawings, and said lightly: "You will know what you should know. Now, step back."

Wu Xu didn't dare to say much, and lowered his head, "Yes, my lord."

Ush left, and Seth ignored a mere mortal. He walked around to the back of the hall, walked through the corridor, opened a door with ornately carved patterns, and stepped into the room.

This is his bedroom, and the purpose of his coming here is to put a big box under the bed that he sleeps with every night.

Taking the box out and putting it on the table, Seth squinted his eyes and opened the lock on the box with anticipation, and then opened the lid. Lights of several colors immediately poured out from the gap, permeating Seth's whole body, intertwined with each other, faintly There is a trend of convergence.

Set's cold eyes reflected the colorful divine light, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face, as well as a hint of yearning called ambition.

He quickly returned to his original state, his eyes became indifferent and cruel again, he snapped the lid of the box, locked it, put it back under the bed, turned around and walked to the window with the deep red curtains wide open, overlooking the That unfinished tower, take a deep breath.

"Soon, soon. At that time, I will take it back with my own hands, everything I deserve!"

……

While Seth silently suppressed his revenge and ambition, Wu Xu, the architect who had just left the hall, was targeted by someone. More precisely, he was targeted by the pickpocket Baker, the second male in the original plot.

Because of the appearance of Gao Feng, Baker, who was supposed to take the risk of stealing back the Eye of Horus after finding his wife and asking Horus for help, is now eyeing the celebrity beside Seth, the architect Wu Xu.

This is mainly because he learned from his wife who was sold to Wuxu to become his servant that the architect Wuxu was ordered by the tyrant Seth to build something secretly. As for what it is, the servant's wife has no way of knowing. It is precisely because of this that he followed Wu Xu and recorded his activities and rules of action. This work has been going on for nearly a year.

One year is enough to do a lot of things, so Baker has figured out Wu Xu's movements, well, it should be said that he has figured it out a long time ago. As a pickpocket, although he does not have the habit of stepping on spots like a thief, he deliberately It doesn't take a year to do this.

The reason why he waited until now was because he was waiting for an opportunity.

Watching Wu Xu's team go away, Baker put on his hood and descended from the side of the two-story building. After a few dexterous leverages, he landed smoothly, then walked out of the alley and disappeared into the crowd.

He shuttled back and forth among people and houses, and finally went from the bustling area to the dilapidated place far away from the palace.

It looks dilapidated, but in fact, it used to be a place where wealthy families gathered. However, under the increasingly cruel tyranny of Seth, people with little property also lost their wealth and became impoverished poor people, even slaves. .

Stopping in front of a house with an ordinary appearance, Baker raised his hand and knocked on the door. After a while, there was a questioning voice inside: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Baker."

The people inside seemed relieved, opened the door, quickly glanced left and right, and pulled Baker into the door.

Only after entering the house did one find that there was not only one person who opened the door, but also several people with plain clothes and different expressions. Judging from their different temperaments, it is not difficult to guess that they were not in the same class before, but now they are Come together for the same purpose.

"How's it going, Baker?"

As soon as Baker came in, everyone's eyes focused on him.

Baker pulled down his hood and shook his head slightly to the expectant eyes.

After receiving such a response, everyone couldn't help but sigh, but perhaps they were used to such a result, and they quickly cheered up again.

Facing the future, what people are afraid of is not the torture at this moment, because anything that will pass can be called a test, but if there is no hope ahead, that kind of despair, even the most determined fighter, cannot bear it.

Baker looked at the crowd and said encouragingly: "It is always the darkest time before dawn, and we have made a lot of efforts for this. I believe that as long as we hold on, the light will be waiting for us not far away. By then... ..."

"Revenge!" Several people shouted with deep expressions.

The reason why they gathered here was precisely because of hatred, hatred for Seth.

In order to build the magnificent Tower of Babel, Seth forcibly recruited the Egyptian people. In the process, the rich could lose money and avoid disasters, while the poor could only be slaughtered. But even the rich, once entangled, might be able to survive three or five times. , but to continue?The results speak for themselves.

Such tragedies are happening every day in Egypt today. The difference is that some people accept their fate, while others still want revenge.

They don't have the ability to kill gods as mortals, so they can only rely on Baker. For this, spending a year is nothing at all, and even if it comes ten or twenty years, it will still be nothing!
