Chapter 102: Reason?

After the communication, Zheng Zhe led everyone to the Oasis Bazaar, although the first confrontation was won, but the battle below was even more difficult, the shadow of the god of death Anubis hung over everyone, and they must hurry to the oasis to join Kotomi to fight against the increasingly powerful enemy.

"It only took three days to reach the oasis, and then we were soon able to reach the port to take the travel boat back to Cairo, which was about... It took about two days to board a tanker in Cairo...... Don't worry, I don't believe those Grim Reaper monsters or anything will come across the ocean to kill us. O'Connor is optimistic about the future, or at least seems optimistic, and he often preaches the idea that if you run fast and far, you'll be fine. Jonathan took another batch of gold from Zheng Zhe, which he said was to raise money for the rest of the trip.

Zheng and Zhan Lan agreed that both O'Connor's out-of-tune arguments and Jonathan's gold collection were nothing more than the two of them venting their fears and relieving stress. It's too exciting for them these days, and they'll go crazy if they don't give themselves some relief. However, it is true that neither of them has the courage to fight against the mummy now, and what they want most now is to quickly take a sum of money and run away, and run back to Europe far away, it should be possible, maybe it will be fine. Only Eve was still thinking about how to clean up the mummy from time to time, holding the Bible of the Dead and trying to find some clues.

Everyone hurried day and night, and finally saw the Oasis Market a few days later in the evening, and the destination of the meeting was in sight, and the exhausted people rested at the Market Hotel for a while, waiting for the meeting with Misaka. But after that day, there has been no communication between Misaka Kotomi's side, and although there is not much danger in knowing that Misaka's strength is strong, this kind of waiting torment still makes everyone toss and turn.

In the evening, Zheng Zha took a bottle of tequila and lay on the balcony of the hotel, after coming to this legendary world of gods and ghosts, he rarely had such a free and calm time as tonight.

"Are you drinking?" A male voice came, this was Zhang Jie's voice.

Zheng Zha didn't look back, but just took out another bottle of tequila, Zhang Jie was not polite, he sat down and opened the wine bottle by himself, and then poured it into his mouth in a few sips.

"Already...... Feeling tired? Zhang Jie drank half of the tequila in one go, and he also lay on the deck.

"Huh? So...... Well, I'm tired. Zheng Zha exhaled, and he also poured a large sip of wine, which quickly turned into a hot stream when it entered his throat, burning his whole body to heat up.

"Is it because you're going to die at any time? This time the situation is very troublesome, it is difficult enough to deal with the Yinzhou team and the mummies, and the god of death has also been involved, and I don't know when Kotomi will come back..."Zhang Jie asked after a moment of silence.

Zheng Zha drank all the tequila in his hand in one go, and then said lightly: "Anyone can die at any time, in fact, I have been on the verge of death for a long time, except for wanting to live because of some fetters in my heart, most of the time I look down on life and death, for example, I can never imagine that I can be so indifferent to other people's lives, and I can easily erase others...... What really makes me tired is that I have to fight while guarding against my partner, and if I can't even hand over my back to my partner, that's what makes me really tired......"

"If you say...... If ......" Zhang Jie also drank all the wine in the bottle in one go, and then he muttered: "...... Brother, if you remove Qinmei, a girl I don't know what to say, the strength of the Zhongzhou team is far inferior to the Yinzhou team. Although there is an element of luck in her show, this little girl has left us far behind, and now if we face her, the three Middle-earth teams will not be able to beat her. Even if I ......"

Zhang Jie sighed and shook his head and continued: "The Zhongzhou team is far inferior to the Yinzhou team, but the Yinzhou is the name assigned by the 'main god' according to the ancient continent, which is about the general name of the Indian and Indian Sea archipelagos in the real world, plus the Arab countries in the direction of India in the Dead Sea, and Zhongzhou is the general name of the land that extends north from the Chinese territory of the real world, whether it is the size of the land or the population, the people who can enter the Zhongzhou team are definitely the most among all the reincarnation teams, so ...... Why are the other members of our Central Continent team so much weaker than the Indian team? Even if it's not Kotomi, this bug should be about the same. Are you really not curious? ”

Zheng Zha took out a bottle of wine from Na Ring again, and he said lightly: "So, I've been waiting for your words......"

"If you say...... Give me some time, if you survive this time against the Inzhou team, I will tell you everything, and then ...... No, no then, want to smoke? ”

Zhang Jie finished this passage intermittently, and then took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, after he threw one to Zheng Zha, he lit it and smoked it by himself, Zheng Zha took the cigarette, he only felt a little trance, as if he had returned to the scene when he first met Zhang Jie when he was in Resident Evil One, the slightly cold man, the lit cigarette......

Now the time turns to a few days ago............

After Misaka and Zheng Zhe completed their communication, they began to explore this ancient ruin, which should be a very ancient temple, and it is definitely a product of BC from the weathering situation, but unfortunately Misaka is not proficient in ancient Egyptian archaeology, and cannot tell which dynasty in Egypt built the architectural style here.

The river ditch next to the temple had been completely filled with sand, and if it wasn't for the discovery of a half-collapsed stone bridge, the riverbank was made of large stones and it was impossible to recognize that there might have been water here before.

After continuing to dig deeper into the ruins, Misaka began to make more discoveries, such as some statues buried under the yellow sand, and some relatively remote stone chambers, where the murals have not been completely peeled off, from these relics can be seen from the glory of this temple back then. The excavations were basically all kinds of cat statues, and the murals were full of cat figures, and even Misaka found the remains of several cat mummies in a secret room. After interpreting the excavated results and the remaining frescoes, Misaka confirmed that this should be a temple of the goddess Buster, because there were so many cats, and I am afraid that no temple in ancient Egypt except for the goddess Baster would have so many murals and statues depicting cats.

Sensing the other party's information, Misaka continued to go deeper, and Naiako's Dull-haired radar ability exerted a powerful positioning ability here, although the fluctuations emitted by the other party were very weak, but Misaka didn't find the wrong direction at all, and followed the Dull-hair's pointing to the source of the information in an almost straight line.

Misaka pursued the source until he discovered a buried tunnel behind a ruined house that might have once been the main hall, from which the message of the invitation was sent.

"It's really troublesome..."This dark passage is not only covered with a lot of sand, but the passage is also mixed with countless collapsed stones, and Misaka can't be blasted open with magic cannons, so it doesn't become a door, so someone invited Misaka. I had to use the hands of the mage to clean up little by little, and from time to time I had to use mud to strengthen the surroundings to prevent landslides, and it took half an hour to clean up the sand and gravel accumulated for thousands of years, revealing a stone door in the innermost part of the dark passage.

"Is anyone home? The courier is coming. Pushing open the stone door, Misaka entered a secret room. The secret room may not have been opened since the destruction of this temple, it is very well preserved, the murals on the walls of the room seem to be as if they were just depicted back then, the ground is spotless, and what is even more strange is that this thousand-year-old secret room is supposed to have a very low oxygen content, although Misaka will not suffocate because of this, but it will definitely not feel comfortable, but after entering, it is like entering an air-conditioned room equipped with the most advanced air purifiers.

It seems that at least part of the power seal of the temple owner is here to keep the place clean, and Misaka looks into the center of the room, where a beautiful altar is located, and on the altar is a statue of a cat god.

As Misaka's words fell, a light suddenly appeared in the center of the room, just shining on the cat god statue on the altar, the god statue came to life under the light of this divine light, and slowly turned into a lady image with a cat head and a human body, Baster actually descended a projection, and now the gods of ancient Egypt are not rich, and projecting an image of a dialogue is considered a big deal.

"Your Highness Kotomi, welcome to my shrine, you are so funny. First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to His Highness Kotomi for saving my last descendants, and for making it easier for me to contact His Highness. Buster first thanked Misaka, thanking Misaka for saving the two kittens, and at the same time, the Buff left by the cat's mother before she died was obviously the goddess's locator, and it was easy to find Misaka, considering the coincidence of Misaka's fall, most of the control of the second half of the tornado was in the hands of the cat goddess, otherwise why did it fall so coincidentally on the edge of her temple.

"Well, everyone is the same kind, shouldn't you help when you're in trouble? And no matter how you look at that thing, Misaka takes advantage of it a lot, so you don't have to praise Misaka. Should I have brought Misaka here today as a family member? Hearing Misaka's words, Buster had a big bead of sweat on his head, obviously not very comfortable with such a conversation.

"I'm sorry to get used to it, let's get to the point, may I ask the Grim Reaper this time..."Misaka also saw that such words were a bit too much for the other party, so he quickly stopped.

Buster didn't bother with Misaka, if it was an ordinary person talking such nonsense, it would naturally be possible to face the punishment of the gods, but everyone is a god, although the size of the divine power is a little different. She first explained the current situation of the Egyptian gods, it turns out that the ancient Egyptian gods have left the earth to take root in another crystal wall, and what is left here is just their doppelganger back then, and every once in a while they can get some information and resources from the distant ontology to maintain, but it is just maintenance, ancient Egypt has been destroyed, and the gods of ancient Egypt are naturally not believed, let alone them, the Olympian god system, the Norse gods, how can there be believers now. Without believers, there is no faith, and without faith, there is no divine power, and naturally life is tight.

I see, the ancient Egyptian gods have moved, and what is left here is just their idle chess, so take care of it just in case. Misaka remembers that "Dungeons & Dragons" seems to mention the ancient Egyptian god system, what kind of god system are they called over there? It seems to be true.

"But, not long ago...", the turning point came, and the cat goddess changed her words and began to tell the cause and effect of this team battle Death Parade. Not long ago, someone found the Egyptian gods, saying that they wanted to borrow their territory to play a game, the reward was rich, the prize Bibles of the dead and the golden scriptures of the resurrection were also fakes taken by the other party, and by the way, they could also clean up a grudge that had accumulated over the years, and the Egyptian gods naturally had no reason to refuse, and now the landlord's surplus food is gone, and there is a lot of money to be comfortable for a while. The gods who were not at the level of the level did not expect that these so-called rewards were just leftovers after the main god had scavenged the world realm.

But it didn't end there, after the deal with the gods was completed, the guy secretly found Anubis to talk to him again, if it weren't for Buster's fellow members of the underworld, he wouldn't know about it. Although the content of the conversation obtained is incomplete, the general content has been learned by Buster, and the other party asked the Grim Reaper to take the initiative to help in this game, to facilitate the Yinzhou team, and even to get off the field in person when necessary, and to the Zhongzhou team is naturally to add blockage if it can.

It is said that the remuneration for pulling the eccentric frame is not much lower than the venue rental fee, especially since the other party also provides a lot of mysterious cultivation methods that can make the god of death get out of the current state of the doppelganger and become an independent new existence. It's really hard to imagine that Yin Zhou was able to contact the Egyptian gods, isn't the inner layer of the main god's space blocked.

"No wonder His Highness is so zealous." It's a single large income and you can get rid of the unlucky gatekeeper role, so the fool doesn't agree, isn't it just quietly stumbling and pulling the shelf, even if it is openly biased in favor of the Yinzhou team, what can you do with the Zhongzhou team. Attack the Underworld? No kidding.

However, eating alone will naturally lead to jealousy, and after discovering Misaka's strength, Buster didn't come over to stumble on the god of death. Although he will not personally help Misaka fight against the god of death, but many times intelligence is more important than anything else, and understanding the true intentions of the god of death and the Egyptian gods is very important for the team battles below, at least there is no need to worry about the invalidation of the resurrection scripture, and it is also confirmed that the Inzhou team can use the incarnation of the god of death three times at most, and the limitations and abilities are also understood.

"Sister Xie Xie told Misaka these words, and now Misaka has the confidence to win this battle. However, for the safety of all of us, please sign a contract with Misaka, and nothing will be revealed about what happened here today. "A contract appears before us, and it is also a contract of roots.

"This contract..."Although the content of the contract is recognized, is this contract so advanced? The cat goddess does not know the root contract, but she can perceive the horror of the effectiveness of this contract, far beyond the power level of the Dao she knows.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid Your Highness, you still don't know what kind of existence the guy who is planning this game..."

But the cat goddess shook out all the mess behind her, and if someone behind the main god manipulated this matter, if it was poked out, no matter how tossed it above, Misaka's side would definitely not be good. And the main god's detection ability involves the timeline and the parallel world, in case the cat goddess chats one day and says that it is possible to be found by the main god, so you must sign a contract of sufficient level.

After signing, the cat goddess took out a charm of the sun god and gave it to Misaka, saying that it could protect the holder with this, but the more detailed use method was vague, but it was said that it would naturally work when it was time to play, really, these gods like gods to chatter.

After obtaining information and holding the sun god amulet given by the cat goddess, Misaka took his leave and left.
