Chapter 267: The Unclean

At the same time, a ritual was going on in the inner sanctum of the Temple of Horus: a group of golden-skinned bald heads knelt on the ground and worshiped Lelia on the stone platform, while chanting words in their mouths

Lelia: "......" - unconscious

Worthington III: "......" - completely uninformed, with two personal attendants (of a lowly aristocratic status) waiting under the ceremonial stage, anxious

PS: The rest of the people who traveled with Worthington III are now at the main entrance of the temple (the outer courtyard part, the outer temple), which is called the "temple guard", but in fact the high priest of the temple thinks that they are of low status or believe in evil gods (pagans), and does not let them in, so as not to pollute the sacred inner temple, and he believes that only pure priests and nobles are eligible to enter the inner temple.

The head of the big bald head (the skin is not painted golden, and the object of the kneeling is not Lelia, but the idol of Horus in the inner sanctum): "......" - as if sensing some kind of information, he closed the large, thick "black shell book" in his hand, stopped praying, and stood up

Worthington III: "High Priest, why did you stop?"

High Priest: "The gods have sent me a revelation that three unclean have broken into the inner temple with the aim of destroying the ...... of the Awakening Ritual" - and respectfully return the "Black Shell Book" to the shrine

Worthington III: "Is there such a thing?" (contact the head of the guard at the door) Magik, what are you doing to eat...... "- to scold

High Priest: "Don't blame the temple guards, the unclean didn't go through the main ......" - took a handful of holy sand (ashes) and sprinkled it on the sarcophagus under the stage

High Priest (Ancient Egyptian): "Wake up, ...... servants of the gods who sleep here" - Two mummies (high priests in life) crawl out of the sarcophagus

High Priest Mummy X2: "Whew~~" - trembling and bowing to the High Priest

High Priest (Ancient Egyptian): "(Bow in return, pointing out the door)...... Wake up the other servants and kill the unclean who break into the inner temple!"

High Priest Mummy X2: "Whew~~" - took the order and left, scattering broken bones and rotten soil all the way

Squire A: "(All in the eye)...... Can this kind of thing that drops scum when it walks have combat effectiveness?"-muttered

Vallet B: "I think it's more or less for ......nothing" - muttered

Worthington III: "Don't talk nonsense, trust in the strength of the High Priest!" - a low reprimand

Vallet A/B: "Yes." - Immediately bow your head and admit your mistake

Worthington III: "(See the High Priest resuming his throne and continuing the previously interrupted ritual of awakening)...... But then again, the High Priest needs to concentrate on the Awakening Ritual, and it's not unreasonable for the two of you to help him strengthen the inner temple's defenses and take care of his worries. - hint

Personal attendant A/B: "Subordinates understand ......" - quietly retreat

On the other side, under the leadership of the [Black Queen], the three of them moved towards the inner hall of the temple

Barton: "...... Mr. B.Q. I couldn't help but speak

Zatanna (Black Queen): "What's the matter, say." ”

Barton: "You just said that you are likely to meet the mummy in the horror movie ......"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "Are you scared?"

Barton: "I'm not afraid of mummies, I'm worried that the bow and arrow won't be lethal enough, and I won't be able to shoot those guys and drag you back......"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "If the bow and arrow can't be killed, you can change the bow and arm to draw, do you still need me to teach this?"

Barton: "Those mummies can be pumped to death with a bow?"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "It's not to be crushed, they're already dead...... Don't think of those things too scary, they're just dried corpses that shatter at the slightest touch. - Cheer up

Barton: "It's shattering when you touch it, aren't you?"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "It's not an exaggeration at all, they just look scary, and the actual combat power is not worth mentioning at all, maybe not even (5)." And with the continuous development of CG technology, the visual effects of related film and television works are becoming more and more realistic, and now those zombies and mummies can't even scare ordinary people. From your point of view, they are much easier to deal with than scarabs. ”

Barton: "Then how can they be higher than the scarab?"

Zatana (Black Queen): "The ranks I am talking about are based on the level of witchcraft, and the resurrected mummies have the knowledge and skills of the living part, which allows a small number of mummies to perform some witchcraft. Of course, that mummified body must be terrible, you just have to smash their jaws and throats ......" - teach how to cope

Lei Xiaogu: "Attention, there is a bright light ...... ahead" - reminder

Barton: "Shall we reach the Inner Sanctum?" - brace your spirits

Zatanna (Black Queen): "No, we didn't get far from the preparation room......" - stepped forward, and noticed that the light was coming through the keyhole

Barton: "(Closer) ...... It's a big door, what kind of room is this?"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "(peeking through the keyhole) is not a room, it's the inner library of the temple......" - Cast a lock spell and open the door

Barton: "Neku? Whoa...... (Stunned by the golden light in front of him, he swallows his saliva) You see ......"—confirmed Lei Xiaogu to the side

Lei Xiaogu: "Hmm. - Take off your night vision goggles

Barton: "Is this qiē in front of us real?" - followed by the Black Queen

Zatanna (Black Queen): "Yes. - not in the slightest temptation by the gold and silver treasures around him

Barton: "Can we ......" - took a golden statue (small), touched it, gnawed it, and made sure it was not a fake

Lei Xiaogu: "No. "- Resolutely

Barton: "Real gold...... It's a treasure trove of national value...... It would be a pity not to bring back some "souvenirs" (constantly playing with the golden statue in my hand), ......and it would be difficult to give it up

Lei Xiaogu: "It's a pity, you won't think like that when you die because of this kind of thing, put it back!" - stern

Barton: "I'll take one, I won't be greedy......"

Lei Xiaogu: "Fool, think about it, it's not a matter of taking more and taking less...... - take the golden statue and put it back in its place

Barton: "What's the problem?" - picking up a larger golden statue

Lei Xiaogu: "There will be no security measures in a treasure house of this level? Is it possible?"

Zatanna (Black Queen): "Naturally, it's impossible. As soon as he finished speaking, the dirt under his feet squirmed, and his bandaged hands broke through the ground

Me (voiceover): "Hehe, it's not surprising that it's Barton who is causing the trouble. ”
