Chapter 221 The Third Team
Wu Jie is a pretty good listener. Although he already knew about O'Connor's past, he still chose to listen to the story quietly.
"O'Connor, since we dare to go to Hamna Tower, we cannot be unprepared. So you can put away your equipment. That stuff is of little use against the thing suppressed under Hamna Tower." Wu Jie listened. After finishing O'Connor's story, he said to him: "I know that you prepared weapons to deal with those men in black, but I want to say two things. First, you are going to rob the tomb, and Hamnatta is their This is a holy land that has been guarded by a clan for thousands of years, so why you are being beaten to death is completely unreasonable."
".Yes, sir."
"Secondly, where they are guarding is not because of the treasure, but because of a mummy that has been sealed for thousands of years."
O'Connor's expression was a bit strange. He was not a staunch atheist. Although he did not believe in a mainstream religion, he still upheld the attitude of believing that he did not need money anyway.
O'Connor still believed what Wu Jie said.
"That is the high priest Immorton who was tortured by insects thousands of years ago. It was the most terrifying and vicious punishment. The torture would make him die in great pain. Of course, he would also gain extremely powerful power, enough to destroy the entire Egypt. . It can bring at least ten disasters to Cairo. Think back carefully, when you were besieged, did you notice the collapse of the quicksand? That was a precursor to Immorton's recovery."
O'Connor had no choice but to believe it, because he himself didn't remember the situation very clearly because he was in a panic. But now that Wu Jie was talking about it, he felt more and more that what Wu Jie said was correct.
As for why Wu Jie knew this, O'Connor ignored the question. In his opinion, it was not an exaggeration for these mysterious oriental people to know everything.
"Damn it." O'Connor cursed: "Then why do they still want to punish Immorton? Why don't they just kill him?"
"Because what he committed was the crime of regicide. The crime of regicide is a serious crime in any feudal society. It is absolutely impossible to let him die easily. The purpose of insect bite is the same as that of Lingchi. It is to torture and scare away those who harbor evil intentions. Someone with bad intentions?”
O'Connor shuddered violently. He couldn't imagine what a vicious punishment it was.
"You don't have to be afraid, O'Connor." Wu Jie reminded him kindly: "You are my subordinate now. Even if you make a mistake, I will kill you with one shot at most. I will never use this kind of torture on you. Because it’s really troublesome.”
"Sir, sir, O'Connor will absolutely obey your orders." O'Connor looked at the knife that appeared in Wu Jie's hand and remembered the exchange between him and the Oriental named Chu Xuan that night. O'Connor completely dismissed any small thoughts.
"Although Immorton's body is dead, his soul is imprisoned and has been in pain of neither death nor life for thousands of years. This pain gave him terrifying magic power, but as long as we don't release it, it won't be possible. The Pharaoh at that time arranged for special guards to prevent Immorton from being resurrected."
O'Connor let out a long sigh of relief.
"So our purpose this time is to release Immorton."
O'Connor was furious.
In the carriage, Jonathan was drinking ice-cold Coke, which was a rare item in Egypt, not to mention it was ice-cold.
Coca-Cola, which was born in 1886, was not as popular around the world as it would be in later generations. Jonathan, who was British but grew up in Egypt, found the taste a bit strange when he first tasted it, but the more he drank, the more addictive the drink became. Interested, he once again pulled Zheng Zha to talk about his Coke plan.
Zhang Jie: I am a pot of pothos. I am a pot of pothos. I am a pot of pothos.
Evelin, on the other hand, quickly integrated into Zhan Lan and the others, and soon chatted with Zhan Lan about everything she knew about Hamunata.
"I have been fascinated by Egypt since I was a child, because of those two books. The legendary "Golden Sun Book" is also called the "Sutra of Resurrection", which records all the secret spells of ancient Egypt, and the "Death Book". The Black Book is also known as the Bible of the Dead."
After talking about her own affairs with Zhan Lan and Zhu Wen, Evelin couldn't help but ask: "You guys, I mean Wu Jie, does he really have magic? Sorry, I know it's rude, but I really see When it came time for him to exert that magical power, the ability to instantly restore bookshelves, and this car that was as magical as a magic flying carpet."
"He didn't use magic, Miss Evelin." Zhan Lan showed a sweet smile and said to her Evelin: "That's super power, and this car, this is the power of technology."
In an era before Superman was born, people didn't know much about superpowers.
Seeing Evelin's confused expression, Zhu Wen took out the Yin Soldier Order, and with a flash of gray light, a Yin Soldier with its own air conditioning appeared in the car.
"This is magic."
Just as Evelin screamed because of the unexpected Yin soldiers, on the other side of the Mediga Grave Guard Clan's station, six rays of silver light cut through the sky and landed in front of the central tent.
And here, Ades and several elders of the tombkeeper clan have been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Chu Xuan and Zhang Heng descending from the sky, several elders' eyes flashed with shock.
They have never seen such a magical creation that can fly faster than that thing called an airplane.
Around them, some somewhat experienced members of the Mediga clan also whispered to the people on the side: "Look, that's foreign technology. The technology is so good that even six silver bars can fly..."
Adès came up, followed by two men in black. The two men held two one-ounce plates in their hands. Adès used his index finger and middle finger to hold the two plates. With a slight swipe of black fuel, he came to Chu Xuan to outline patterns on Chu Xuan's face.
Chu Xuan had already learned from the old curator that this was a tradition of the Mediga clan, and it would only be done when facing the most respected guests.
But looking at the battles around him, Chu Xuan knew that if he wanted the Mediga clan to support his actions, he would still need a little physical negotiation.
"Zhang Heng."
"ah?"
"See those strong men?"
"I saw it, what's wrong?"
"Knock them down and don't hurt anyone."
"Chu! I knew there would be no good in coming with you!"
