Egyptian Mythology: Daily Life of the Desert God

Chapter 60 Out of Control Sandstorm
After his failure, Seth faced two choices.

One is to choose other people's lives to weave the web of fate.

And take this spider thread of fate that is rooted in others as the basis for weaving the spider web of fate.

With the number of humans, if you try one by one, you will always succeed.

Want to do that?
After thinking about it for a moment, Set rejected the idea.

If we use the cobwebs woven by other people's lives as the foundation.

Then there is no need for him to give up the existing broken destiny authority given by Eamon.

After all, they are all using other people's fate.

The difference is that other people's risks may be lower than Eamon's.

But there are risks after all.

This leaves only one option.

Keep trying.

As a human god, he can repeatedly try to be the spider's thread of fate throughout his life.

If you are recording other people's lives to make a thread of fate, if you fail once, you cannot do it a second time.

Set took a long breath, calmed his mind, and once again used the blank power of faith to weave the paper.

Then record his short life as a human word by word.

“…That day, I became a god.”

Snapped!
The paper of faith disintegrated again, leaving behind a mess of power of faith.

Calmly dissipating all the power of faith, Seth tried again.

Existing failures are preparations for future successes.

Ten times, failed.

A hundred times, failed.

A thousand times…

Ten thousand times…

After the 20,000th time, Seth's eyes turned red as he watched the power of faith disintegrate into chaos!
The desert surrounding the temple was blown by an invisible wind.

Grains of yellow sand are connected together, and a sandstorm forms, spreading into the distance!
Not long after, the oasis close to the temple saw overwhelming sandstorms coming from all directions!

At this moment, the sun has been covered by the flying yellow sand.

The desert becomes dark, like night falling!
From time to time, desert wolves, camels, cacti and other things that were swept up in the sky fell.

Although he fell on the yellow sand, his flesh and blood were still mutilated.

People in the oasis were frightened and quickly hid in houses and lay down.

The caravans walking in the desert gathered together and prayed frantically to the gods.

The caravan without idols could only hide under the camels and pray for survival!

The gods attached to the desert took action one after another to protect the foundation of their own authority!

But looking at the sandstorm that blocked the sky, the sun couldn't penetrate, and the roar was deafening.

They looked solemn.

I also realized again that the Lord God, whose authority has been lost, is still the Lord God!
"Crazy, Seth must be crazy!" Tequila God Mulan shouted loudly with fear in his eyes!

However, there were no other gods around her, only the roars of the monsters she captured.

"Shut up!" Mulan shouted angrily.

The monsters feared God and stopped.

The territory Set assigned to Mulan is the new gathering place for monsters!

This land is small, just enough to accommodate agave flowers and a hundred thousand monsters.

Mulan did not dare to kill the monsters due to Seth's orders.

We can only squeeze in here with the monsters and make sure they can't escape.

What bothered Mulan the most was that monster urine and feces often appeared on her agave flowers!

She obviously endured it, but Seth actually wanted to set off a sandstorm and destroy all life in the desert!

Mulan is angry, hateful, and scared!
Although the other gods were not as crazy as Mulan, they looked at this sandstorm set off by the owner of the desert, which seemed to destroy the world.

I can't help but wonder if Set is really crazy and wants to kill these gods!

And kill all the humans in the desert!

"Is he really not afraid of offending the God of Ra?!" Thorns was puzzled.

A gathering place for monsters.

Mulan raised his hand and crushed an eyeless snake that screamed out of fear to death!

She no longer protected the agave flower, but roared angrily in the direction of the Yellow Sand Temple. "Set, I won't let you go!"

"I'm going to the underworld to tell the god Ra about your evil deeds!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sandstorm stopped roaring.

The yellow sand falls back into the desert like rain!
The blue and clear sky is visible again, and the red sun is still high.

Mulan looked at this change blankly.

If it weren't for the bloody corpses on the desert that corroborated Mulan's memory.

Then, Mulan will really suspect that there is something wrong with his memory!
Did the threat work?
No, she didn't feel that Set was one with the desert.

The other gods were also confused.

He didn't even have the guts to meet and ask Seth what happened.

If Seth really goes crazy, they will probably die at Seth's hands.

Yellow Sand Temple.

Seth looked pale and looked ugly.

"It got out of control!"

Twenty thousand failures not only depleted all the power of faith that he had merged with divine power.

Even the power of faith that covers people and destroys the authority of destiny has been partially depleted!

This made Seth unwilling and angry.

In addition, after he lost the desert territory, he was affected by negative emotions such as anger and hatred.

The two are superimposed, and Seth has always wanted to destroy everything in his heart.

Set off a sandstorm and kill all life, including gods!
Fortunately, Seth controlled himself.

Seth stood up, mobilized his divine power, and sealed the temple into the yellow sand.

Then open the God's Gate and return to another temple.

There should be gods coming to him, and he didn't want other gods to peek into the secrets of that temple.

Sitting on the throne, Set placed the Ankh under the dome of the temple.

The smell of the desert permeated the entire temple.

Now part of the power of faith that covers people and destroys destiny's authority is missing.

To be on the safe side, it’s better to cover it up with desert scent.

After doing all this, Seth began to wonder why twenty thousand attempts ended in failure?
Wrong steps?

But in the memory he got, that's what Eamon did.

Is the memory wrong?

It seems that I have to try it with other people's lives.

Sighing, Seth sat on the throne to rest. He had exhausted too much energy.

The higher gods and lower gods attached to the desert are in contact with each other.

They wanted to choose a brave god and ask Seth if all was well.

However, no god dared to ask.

If Seth, who may have gone crazy, is offended, what will happen to the agave god Mulan?

Unable to choose a brave god, they could only tell Shu, the god of order, about the incident.

Of course, this time all the gods wrote to inform him.

All oases that have been frightened by sandstorms are filled with excitement and joy of surviving the disaster.

The same goes for caravans walking in the desert.

Except for some unlucky ones who were swept up by the sandstorm and fell to death.

But those people are basically exiles expelled from various oases.

After the excitement and joy comes the large-scale sacrifices to the desert gods.

However, some oases have other ideas.

The duck grass oasis is named after the oasis they live in looks like a duck.

Among the hundreds of oases where Seth showed his magical power and gained faith is the Duckweed Oasis.

They are oases that worship desert gods.

However, the tribal chief of Duck Grass Oasis looked at the old high priest with an expression of disbelief.

"You want us to leave the desert and convert to the god of agriculture?"
