"It's good to know!" Settra said again and again, raising her hand to summon a mummy with a scorpion-shaped crown. Snorri judged from the clothes and the shape of the mummy that he should be a tomb technician.
If you are a tomb king or a tomb prince, you should wear noble jewelry and receive better maintenance. If it were a Lich Priest, it wouldn't be in the form of a mummy.
Tomb technicians are not ordinary laborers, but master builders with great ambitions, whose ambitions may last their entire life journey.
During their lifetime, the tomb technicians supervised the laborers building cities and pyramids under the scorching sun. After the pyramid was completed, they would also be killed and buried in order to ensure that the mechanisms inside would not be leaked.
After giving a few instructions, the tomb technician turned and left, and soon came back with a gold plate. Snorri saw what seemed to be two items placed on it.
"Dwarf, come forward!" Emperor Settra waved. Snorri responded and walked up the steps.
"Do you recognize these two things?" The tomb technician followed the owner's wishes and brought the plate to Snorri. On it was an exquisite pendant and the head of a mining pick.
The artifact cache in Snorri's mind reacted. Both of these items were extremely extraordinary. The former is a component of Gazul's gifted token. This thing was originally a token of God's choice given to him by Gazul, the dwarf god of death, the strongest of the ancestral secondary gods whose power is second only to the three main gods.
The warrior who received the token lost his message on the way to eradicate the undead villains in the world, and the token was also lost. If it can be recast, it can be used to recall a heroic spirit from the ancestral hall managed by Gazul.
The latter is the pickaxe of Granny's divine pickaxe. As the name suggests, it was once an artifact belonging to the dwarven father-god Gruni. God the Father relied on it to mine ore and dig out the original fortress of the dwarves in the mountains.
This artifact itself is extremely sharp, capable of tearing apart mountains and rocks. What's more important is that once it is combined with the pickaxe handle, the ancestral Granny runes carved on it will be restored.
That rune contains boundless power and can protect the dwarves within the effective range from any harm for a limited time, while enhancing their strength and fighting spirit. This is also a necessary condition for Snorri to perform the ultimate grunni ritual.
"Gudu!" Snorri couldn't hold it back and swallowed. He almost couldn't control his hands reaching for those two things.
"Reply, reply to Your Majesty!" the tomb technician urged.
"They should all be treasures left behind by our ancestors." Of course Snorri refused to tell the truth, but he didn't dare to tell complete nonsense. These two parts are different from the three divine objects he collected before. Their extraordinary features are obvious.
Emperor Settra himself has seen countless rare treasures and has extraordinary spell-casting abilities - yes, he is not only a warrior on a carriage, but also a priest king, and even knows some of the spells of lich priests. .
Settra and his men must have the ability to identify magic items. Since they have been singled out, trying to get away with it is undoubtedly self-defeating.
Upon hearing this, Settra's soul fire jumped strangely. This superior, who was only the master of others and not the subject of others, may have seen that what Snorri said was untrue, but he did not point it out. After all, he knew that only dwarves would use these two things, so as long as they were valuable, it didn't matter to him what value they had.
"One of these two things was paid tribute by King Paimeng who was sent to the Vulture Mountain alone, and the other was captured by the rebels who conquered Laemia alone!"
Settra was lost in memories of her exploits. Nehekhara was unified for the first time in history during his lifetime, and after reawakening, he defeated the kings of later generations and reunited them again. It is best described as unprecedented and unprecedented.
"You can take away each of the nine books of Nagash you find and dedicate to him!" Settra took back the plate, handed a roll of papyrus to Snorri, and signaled that he could leave.
Snorri didn't say much. The effect of bargaining with the Tomb King would not be very good. He and his men walked out of the pyramid and once again boarded the skeleton carriage back to the river. Snorri said nothing all the way, thinking silently.
"Where can I get the nine books of Nagash?" The only thing Snorri was sure of was that Black Akhan had it in his hand, but he didn't want to go to the Lich King and try the Tomb Sword and Tomb Sword in his hand. The Staff of Nagash is powerful.
You must know that his body was chopped over by an axe from the Pot-Belly King Gulu, and after Gulu came to Ulthuan in Waaagh, he fell into the hands of Prince Yris and Eltharion the Merciless. But at the end, Akhan cast a curse of time and turned the high elf prince into dust.
There is no possibility that this kind of dark book could be hidden for Snorri to miss. It is a creature. It does not matter whether it is intelligent or not. It can feel the rich dark power in it.
"Perhaps the Sigma Cult may have preserved it? Maybe the ancestor of vampires also has it?" Snorri reluctantly thought of two possibilities. His system was not owned by the Tomb King and could not provide information about the nine volumes. He could only rely on him. I went to investigate on my own.
After walking out of Khemri, Snorri was very satisfied with the passage seal stamped by Emperor Settra in his hand. With this thing, his future shipping traffic would be guaranteed.
The dwarf fleet set sail again, and the Great Styx was bounded by Khemri, and further west it was called the Ember River. Snorri's next stop was Quata, which guarded the entrance to Coffin Canyon.
Since not every king of Nehekhara could afford to build a pyramid, many priest-kings dug tombs on the cliffs of Coffin Canyon to place the remains of their dignitaries.
Over time, a majestic tomb complex was formed there, as well as many huge colonnades and temples for worship. Kuata is therefore also known as the Palace of Corpses or the Path to Eternity.
The flow speed of the Ember River was much faster than that of the Great Styx. Panosin tied the sailboat to the back of the dwarf ironclad and pulled it upstream. Although the speed is limited, the steam engine does not rest at night. It only took them two days to travel 500 kilometers.
As a white stone city came into view, Snorri knew that Quata had arrived. In front of the main entrance of Kuata stand two holy titans, as tall as giants. These constructs were originally activated in Quatar to guard the kings buried in Coffin Canyon.
Their faces are carved in the image of Nehekhara, the god of death. The statues exude an aura of evil magic, and it is said that those who stand in their shadow can hear the cruel laughter of the ancient gods. It is believed that they will become the guides for the souls of deceased emperors, leading the souls of mortal emperors to the realm of souls.
