Chapter 101: The Bible of the Evil Dead
After talking about the ancient tomb adventure, Zheng Zha began to ask the following plan: "Now there is no distance bondage, but what should we do next?" Stay here and wait for the Indos team to arrive again or if Immorton comes out? Or follow O'Conor and them back to Cairo to experience the original plot of the movie? Xiao Honglu, do you have any good suggestions? ”
Xiao Honglu's camel was in the middle of the line, and he replied lightly: "No, I don't have any special suggestions, but there are two doubts...... One, what is their mission for the Inzhou team? Kill the undead sacrifice Immorton? Or is it something else? Second, does the Yin Zhou team also know about the special existence of the Bible of the Dead, and hope to get it? ”
Zheng Qi was stunned for a moment and asked strangely, "The special existence of the Bible of the Dead?" What do you mean? ”
Xiao Honglu said lightly: "I once came across the Undead Bible in the chaos just now, and although it immediately burned my hands, the voice of the 'Lord God' also prompted me to get the plot items...... The specific tip is that you can learn the undead dark spells, and you don't need any bonus points to understand the ancient Egyptian script, otherwise learning each spell costs 1000 bonus points, and you don't need the number of side plots, but you can only learn it after returning to the 'main god' space......" After finishing speaking, he also showed the bubble in his hand.
"Maybe I was burned because of my lack of ability, but if it was the captain or Kotomi, it would be fine. This Bible of the Dead has an effect on us as well, by the way, does it cost a lot of bonus points to learn a legendary magic skill in the 'Lord God' space? ”
Zhan Lan hurriedly said: "Self-study doesn't cost anything, my magic is all in harmony with the qin, and there is no expense except for redeeming horror movie time for learning." If you exchange it directly with the main god, it will be very expensive, not only do you need reward points, but also consume many, many side plots, and the entry skills require D-level side plots and thousands of bonus points, and those offensive skills can only be learned by C-level or B-level side plots......"
"That's right, Sister Zhan Lan, spending rewards to buy magic skills is actually a very bad choice for people like us who have the ability to learn. A "Time and Space Administration Magician Beginner's Guide" is not even enough money for an introductory magic skill enhancement, and all kinds of magic books and magic learning materials are extremely cheap compared to direct enhancement as long as they are not original texts. Unless it's a special skill like Misaka's utopian embodiment that has the meaning of strengthening, it's better to learn on your own. The exception, of course, is an orangutan that has only muscles in its head and no brains. Misaka added.
It's too chicken to exchange skills directly for this kind of enhancement.,Even with this kind of magic props, it's not cost-effective to exchange them at a preferential price of 1000 points.,So many reward points are enough for Misaka to buy a beginner magic guide book and spend another two months to completely eat it through.。 After Misaka finished speaking, he also made an extra sarcasm of Zheng Zha, this guy has strengthened several times and is more and more like the original Zheng orangutan, the combat instinct is good, and he learns various combat skills very quickly, but he is blind when he encounters all kinds of theoretical knowledge. Although he also participated in the magic lectures held by Misaka in his spare time, but every time he finished speaking, he didn't gain anything except mosquito coil eyes, and Zhao Yingkong learned two magic tricks to assist assassination or steal things after stealth.
"Hahaha...... It's really that my scientific concept is too stubborn, I can't understand the magic net incantation you talked about anyway..."Zheng Zhe, who was lying down and was shot, changed the topic awkwardly. Hey, you guy who learned the Aura Wave Fist to strengthen the blood clan talks about science, and it's a lot worse.
"There is no pressure on Misaka to read ancient Egyptian texts, although the undead dark magic Misaka is very annoying, which of you wants to try Misaka is not opposed, and considering that Immorton also needs the Undead Bible, it is better for us to control it in our hands..."
There are not a few Americans left after the disaster, they have gathered some horses and are running towards us, the huge glass bowl made by Misaka in the desert obviously attracts them, and it is a better choice to escape back to Cairo with us in the crisis, and they have not gotten the gold, so they feel that Misaka and his party do not need to pay attention to them, so they are blocked.
Originally, the Americans thought they were coming to greet them when they saw Zheng Zha coming, but when they arrived in front of them, they were surprised to find that Zheng Zha and them were aiming their pistols and assault rifles at them.
"Hey, brother, this joke is not funny at all...... "One of the Americans immediately shouted.
Zheng Zha raised his gun and swept a fire net on the ground, and several Americans suddenly stopped riding their horses, except for the old professor, the rest of the Americans hurriedly raised their hands...... They had already seen the power of the gun in Zheng Zhe's hand, and at such a close distance, the power was enough to easily tear them to pieces.
Zheng Zha said lightly: "I don't want to say anything else, hand over the Bible of the Dead, this thing is of little use to you...... And if you hold it, you'll be hunted down by the mummies to the end, you don't want to encounter that horror again, right? Hand us the Bible of the Dead...... We are willing to exchange it for gold. ”
Several Americans were looking at each other, ready to pick up their pistols at any time to fight hard, and the old professor held the Bibles of the Dead tightly in his arms, looking at them fiercely as if Zheng Zha was going to take away his treasure. But as soon as they heard about "gold", several Americans immediately lit up, and one of them said: "Gold ... How much gold? ”
At this time, everyone also came over, Zheng Zha directly took out a gold brick from the ring and said: "Ten gold bricks like this, just in exchange for an ancient book, do you think it's a good deal?" With that, he gently tossed the gold brick at one of the Americans.
The American caught the gold brick with both hands in a panic, looked at the sun, and after confirming that the color was very good, he pinched it hard, and even bit it hard, and then he said to his partner next to him: "Really, really...... This is a real gold brick! ”
Another American snatched the gold brick and did the man's action just now, and then he looked at Zheng Zhe greedily and said, "Ten... Fifteen gold bricks! Give me fifteen gold bricks and you'll be sold! ”
In the eyes of these adventurers, gold is everything, and it is not for gold to go to the Egyptian desert to dig sand so hard, and risk being killed by ghosts and curses, I originally thought that Zheng Zhe and his party came over to kill them, but they actually came to send money. I don't know which museum can be exchanged for fifteen pieces of gold, and a fool doesn't agree! As for the old professor, he was unlucky to block everyone's financial path.
"Okay, fifteen!"
Zheng Zhe didn't care, and began to continue digging for gold, when an American pulled out a pistol from his waist and shot the old professor. Since the old guy is in the way of our wealth, let's die!
"Stop!" A magic shield appeared in front of the old professor, blocking the evil bullet.
Seeing that the bullet was blocked by something incomprehensible, several Americans thought that Zheng Zhe wanted to repent, and they all turned pale and speechless under the threat of guns and mysterious power.
"Get out of here!" Zheng Zhe didn't have a good impression of this kind of person, he threw all the gold bricks on the ground, and coldly watched a few Americans carnival there with gold bricks. The Americans tossed around the gold for a while, thinking that it was not safe here, so they got on their horses and ran away.
"Old sir. This thing is not an ordinary ancient artifact, even if we don't want it, the resurrected mummy will come and grab it. You can't afford to continue to get involved in this matter, so take the travel money and go back to China to continue teaching. Misaka walked over to comfort the old professor who had just escaped from the muzzle and was too frightened, and quietly handed him some gold bars and gems.
However, when Misaka took the Bible of the Undead, there was a problem, and as soon as he got it in his hand, he felt that the book was rebelling against Misaka, and a black negative energy flame full of death power suddenly erupted, almost burning Misaka.
"This book is also rebelling against Misaka." Misaka's words surprised everyone, Xiao Honglu just got the burn can be said to be the reason for his inability, but it is really strange that a powerful mage like Misaka has encountered more fierce resistance.
After the end, everyone came to try it, in addition to the plot characters of the original book, the members of the Zhongzhou team will be more or less hurt when they get this book, newcomers like Xiao Honglu have at most two more bubbles in their hands, and people like Misaka and Zheng Zhe and Zhan Lan who strengthen the mysterious power will be attacked by negative energy flames.
Such a strange thing made Eve and the old professor's eyeballs shattered, obviously it was just an ancient book in their hands, how could it be that the hands of these people were not hot and angry. Jonathan and O'Connor weren't interested, they were really unlucky to get home by not finding the gold this time, and they were thinking about returning to Cairo and leaving the damn country as soon as possible.
"Strange, why is this book like this?" Misaka walked aside and thought silently, the original Zheng Zha recognized the master very easily, but now everyone can't even touch it, there must be some reason for this, but the problem is that Misaka really doesn't know what's going on. Why is this happening?
"The Bible of the Dead is an item of Anubis, the god of death, and judging by the attitude of that stinky dog towards Misaka in the capital of the dead, it is certain that Misaka cannot be used. But this thing is to some extent a plot reward provided by the 'main god', and there's no reason why others can't use it..."After thinking about it for a long time, Misaka still couldn't figure it out.
"Yuxi, show Misaka the current situation of the Inzhou team..."Zheng Zhe seems to have consumed this book, and is using the aura wave fist over there to mobilize blood energy and burn against the negative energy flame on the undead Bible, Misaka here to see how the enemy's situation is.
"The situation of casualties... Material consumption... Life-saving items and... Wait, what are these things? "Misaka suddenly found something strange on the list of Inzu team items given by Ariki that was obviously not in the original book - three "Charms of Anubis".
"Anubis's spell?" How could the Inzhou team have such a thing?
This is not a fake and shoddy cottage amulet product from a street stall vendor, but a one-time artifact specially descended from the gods. As long as there is a suitable sacrifice (on one side are innocent people with just the right medical examination or fanatics who specialize in breeding), the gods can use this unfortunate sacrifice as a container to descend on the incarnation.
However, the advent of the gods is not a visit, even if there are sacrifices for positioning and containers, it will consume a lot of power, not to mention that the earth has the upper limit of the amount of power to bear, and the inhibition power of the world realm itself will suppress the power of the gods as soon as possible. But even the lowest-level god incarnation will not be lower than the fourth order, and as long as the descending is successful, the average human being is definitely not an opponent, no matter how stressful it is to fight alone, it is easy to destroy a country in ancient times.
It is precisely because the incarnation of the gods has a strong strategic-level force, although there are a large number of restrictions, such as the difficulty of finding sacrifices, the cumbersome production of artifacts, and the fact that the gods may not be willing to respond, etc., they are still favored by many people, and in ancient times, the divine descent technique has always been the highest level of strategic deterrence.
Based on the previous circumstances, from the Inzhou team going to the Sphinx to get the charm to the rejection of Misaka in the City of the Dead, and the current performance of this Bible of the Dead, after sorting out and analyzing this information to eliminate all impossibilities, the remaining results are ridiculous and true. Although it is difficult for Misaka to believe, the only possibility is that Anubis, the god of death, has teamed up with the Inzhou team to deal with the Nakasu team, and the main god has really found a great momentum for the Inzhou team. Even if Anubis has been angry for thousands of years, but there are still three catties of nails in the rotten ship, as long as the main god promises to give the other party enough benefits, there is absolutely no reason for believers to refuse if they lack a god of death who has no one to worship and can only cut down on food and clothing.
"Zheng Zha, stop quickly! Anubis is not going to war against Misaka, but against all of us, the book..."Misaka, who figured all this out, hurriedly stopped Zheng Zhe's brutal behavior, but before Misaka could finish speaking, there was a change.
The Bible of the Dead floated from Zheng Zhe's hand and opened it by itself without a key, and then there was a loud turning of the page, and a black light flashed at the end, and the book fell to the ground and did not move. Eve cautiously went over and poked it, and picked up the book when she felt that it was not dangerous, and felt that nothing had changed except that it was a little cool.
"What's going on?" The mutation of the Bible of the Dead thunders and rains so much that everyone is confused.
"Look over there!" Misaka first noticed that something was wrong, it wasn't that the rain was small, it was just a little late. Not far away, several small tornadoes were gathering, and soon turned into tornado pillars connecting heaven and earth, echoing each other and moving towards the side of the Central Continent team.
"It's a sandstorm of death! Let's go to Misaka's crater and take refuge! "This is the wind of death in the desert, and ordinary people are doomed to death if they are caught in it, and everyone runs madly with their camels into the craters of the dragon's slashing.
"Diber, take care of Kuroko..."Several of them were specifically rushing towards Misaka, which had completely violated the rules of air flow, and Misaka was just about to teleport and was swept in.
"Your sister is absolutely fine, let's hurry up and save our lives!" Heizi had to run over to the rescue, but Zhang Jie picked her up and ran.
I don't know how long it will take......
"Misaka is so dizzy, why are there all stars, why are there birds calling?" I don't know how long it took to go, but Misaka was finally thrown out of the tornado, and there was nothing but turning Misaka's eyes into mosquito coil eyes, and the tornado couldn't break through Misaka's defensive magic.
"Where is this?" The place where Misaka fell seems to be on the edge of the ruins of an ancient ruin, but judging by the fact that it is still a desert nearby, at least it did not fly out of Egypt.
"Zheng Zhe! Zheng Zhe! Hear it, please answer! Hear it, please answer! After confirming that there was no danger nearby, Misaka turned on the phone as soon as possible and contacted Zheng Zhe.
"Kotomi! Kotomi! I'm Zhang Jie! I'm Zhang Jie! ”
"Sister-sama!"
I didn't hear Zheng Zha's voice, and there was a call from Zhang Jie and Heizi in the communicator, and after contact, it was confirmed that everyone had escaped from the storm, and the three protagonists were also safe and sound, but unfortunately not only did the old professor know where the road went, but two of the newcomers were also missing, and the "positive two" points on the main god's watch showed their whereabouts, and they were swept away by the tornado and died.
"Damn!" Zheng Zhe's voice also joined in, obviously it was already four minutes when the two people died because of this pit daddy's tornado It was really embarrassing, the only thing he was glad about was that the two gangsters who had been playing soy sauce died, not the new think tank Xiao Honglu and the special forces Wang Xia.
"Zheng Zha, now is not the time to complain, please listen carefully to Misaka's words..."There is no point in complaining about this now, we must remind everyone, being hunted down by a god is not a joke, even if it is an old guy who is out of breath."
"Judging from the situation of the Capital of the Dead and the Bible of the Undead, it is already certain that Anubis, the god of death, is our enemy, he is not hostile to Misaka alone, but to our entire team, and even Misaka suspects that the main god will arrange for Anubis and the Inzu team to join forces." Misaka spoke his reasoning.
"You... What did you say! The Grim Reaper and Team Inzhou join forces!! The voice from the communicator was messy, it was obvious that everyone was frightened by Misaka's words, the joy of just killing the five people of the Inzhou team was long gone, the Inzhou team is likely to be allies with the Grim Reaper, this news makes people feel black, it is as if two gangs of unscrupulous gangsters are PK in order to compete for the protection fee of a street, and suddenly one side shows that the reinforcements are actually undefeated in the East.
Xiao Honglu's voice also joined in: "Sister Qinmei, you are my own sister!" You can't talk nonsense, why do you think that Anubis will join forces with the Inzhou team? Maybe it's just that there's something wrong with the way we use the Bible of the Dead. Our mission is to bury the undead sacrifices, and the Inzhou team's mission may be to protect the undead sacrifices, or kill O'Connor and Eve, all of which I have considered, but it is outrageous for a god to join forces with the other party against us! ”
You can't blame Xiao Honglu for being so out of shape, this is the god of death, and he is also a powerful god in the ancient Egyptian god system. After all, Xiao Honglu is still a child, not Chu Xuan's absolutely calm three-no man, and the collapse of the super expansion made him really unable to calm down, and his thinking was a little confused. Except for Chu Xuan, I am afraid that anyone who suddenly hears that Anubis is going to put himself to death will panic, which is tantamount to being remembered by Lord Yama, not metaphorically.
"Anubis is the enemy of Misaka, there is no doubt about it. Considering the arrogance of the gods and the current era, it is unlikely that it will directly ally with the Inzhou team, but it is certain to hold us back or give some help to the Inzhou team. "Actually, it's already given to the advent artifact, but this information Misaka really can't say directly.
Xiao Honglu smiled bitterly: "Okay, I probably understand... This book is a chicken rib for us right now, and we have to protect it even though we can't use it. The Immortal Sacrifice will definitely always chase us, kill us and reclaim the Bibles of the Dead; And the Yinzhou team has the help of the Grim Reaper, most of them will also know the special existence of the Dao Undead Bible, and they will definitely want to get it anyway, and we will also be attacked desperately by them, and even the Grim Reaper will personally attack..."
"Since there has been such a big change, then... What will become of the resurrection scriptures? Since the Bible of the Dead is a plot item, then another golden book can't be worse than this one. My biggest concern now is what if we can't use the Golden Resurrection Sutra to bury the Immortal Sacrifice? ”
Xiao Honglu's words made everyone's hearts tug, and the continuous bad news was really unbearable.
Zheng Zhe originally thought that even if the Yinzhou team and the Grim Reaper were too powerful, there was still some hope that they would be able to run if they couldn't beat it, as long as they killed Immorton, the team battle would be over. But the golden resurrection scripture is invalid, it will be troublesome, if you can't easily eliminate Immorton according to the plot, you can only kill it, even if a trick like Dragon Breaking Slash can kill Immorton, but don't forget that there are also the Inzhou team and the Grim Reaper on the side. If the three parties are launched at the same time, no matter how powerful Kotomi is, there is only one person, no matter how the main god looks at it this time, he will force the team to death, and a bad group will be wiped out in front of him.
"That's exactly what Misaka wants to confirm below. We have to confirm whether this is Anubis's personal attitude or the attitude of the entire Egyptian god system, Misaka is now next to a ruin, there seems to be a presence in the ruins who wants to see Misaka, intuitively Misaka thinks that the other party is not hostile, if it is just Anubis's personal behavior then we are not without a chance, after all, the resurrection scripture is an item of the sun god. "From the moment I felt that the ruins on the side were constantly inviting Misaka, and not only was there no hostility but also a very close feeling, as if I had met relatives.
"Good Kotomi, you finish your investigation and join us as soon as possible, and the location will be set at the Oasis Bazaar."
"Misaka understands, please be careful during this time, Diber take care of Kuroko."
