Chapter 44: The Most Respected Enemy
Immorton, who was covered in dry bones, stopped roaring, and his bloodshot eyes turned in the direction from which the voice came: "Who's where?" β
A tall figure as a spear slowly appeared in the dark corridor, with a fierce momentum and uninhibited pride. It was Wang Yang.
Wang Yang walked to Immorton within ten steps before stopping, he looked at Immorton quietly for a moment, and then bowed slightly: "I am from the distant ancient country of the East - China, my name is Wang Yang, I am honored to meet you, Mr. Khotan." β
The voice of Imhotan (Immorton reverted to his historical name from now on) was extremely solemn: "In your eyes I can see the pride, calmness and wisdom of the soul, and the respect that is unpretentious; You are a true strong and wise man, and you are entitled to be equal to me. β
Wang Yang smiled softly, neither showing the slightest disdain, nor showing half flattery, really like a friend who had been separated for many years, in a faint atmosphere, greeting and cherishing: "Your profound wisdom and dedication make me yearn, and in the same way, your loyalty and unyielding love make me respect; Although we are about to become rivals, I still have to meet you, this is a moment I have loved for a long time, and I am sure you can understand my expectations, although in the dimension of history, we are separated by 3,000 years. β
Yin and Khotan nodded: "I understand what you mean, because we are all the same kind of people; Is there anything wrong with you? β
Wang Yang smiled and said, "After being reborn, you will get an immortal body, and your lover Aksuna also needs to be resurrected by your own hands, am I right?" β
Yin and Khotan looked at him motionlessly: "Please continue." β
Wang Yang nodded: "But there is one thing you have ever thought about, Aksuna cannot live as immortal as you." Sickness, pain, and time will take her away from you again, and even if you can reclaim her soul repeatedly, you will have to taste the pain of losing it all the time for a long time, and this is not the result you want. β
Yin and Khotan were silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Then do you have any way?" β
Wang Yang raised his head confidently: "My mother country, China, has a legend of cultivating immortals and sealing gods since ancient times, and there are many examples of achieving immortality through continuous cultivation, I believe you must have heard of it." β
There was a hint of fluctuation in the voice of India and Khotan: "Yes, I have heard of the mystery and power of the East for a long time, and it is also recorded in the ancient books of Egypt. But as far as I can see, you're far from there. β
Wang Yang smiled: "But it's been less than five years since I started practicing as an ordinary person. β
Khotan was silent.
Wang Yang continued: "I come from a mysterious place, this place is related to the ancient saints, and I can't say it too clearly due to restrictions, but it is a place where all dreams can be fulfilled. Whether it's eternal life or godhood, you can find a way. β
A gleam flashed through Yin and Khotan's eyes: "You don't belong to this world? β
Wang Yang's smile was like a breeze, and he didn't answer.
Yin and Khotan bowed their heads and groaned, but did not speak.
Wang Yang knew that he was nervously considering the gains and losses, and he was not in a hurry, just waiting quietly. Just like every time it comes to Lori, Zheng Zha will be nervous, it is about Aksuna, even if the wise Khotan is like the sea, it is also a bit of a gain and loss.
After a long time, Yin and Khotan raised his head: "I believe your words. So, what do I need to do? β
It is really effortless to talk to smart people, Wang Yang slowly put away his smile, and said very solemnly: "Please don't interfere in the competition between me and another team, and after you recover all your mana, fight with me!" β
A hint of cunning appeared in Yin and Khotan's eyes: "Visitors from another world come to Egypt to duel, and one side will become my enemy, and of course the other side will become my ally, in this case, what you have, they will also have, why should I refuse the olive branch of an ally and accept the empty promise of an enemy?" β
Wang Yang's smile did not change in the slightest, still warm and firm: "This question, you will know the answer after you meet them." β
India and Khotan did not care, and said to himself: "And the battle between us, I have no reason to pay attention; I am a noble High Priest, with an immortal body and infinite power, endless time and wisdom that will allow me to accomplish anything I want, and as long as the state and rule remain, I can be the supreme High Priest, enjoying the reverence of the world and the protection of the gods. β
Wang Yang sneered: "Three thousand years of slumber, has it completely wiped out your pride? Or are you willing to drown your emotions in a boring temple forever? β
Yin and Khotan were slightly stunned, and then shook his head: "If you want to convince me, your reasons are not enough. β
This is a great man who lives in countless legends, but also a giant with wisdom like the sea, his wisdom and knowledge can be comparable to any figure in history, in front of such a negotiation opponent, Wang Yang did not dare to relax in the slightest.
Wang Yang took out a holographic projector from the watch space, displayed the history of mankind for 3,000 years in front of India and Khotan, and explained: "γγγγγγ In 1945, the first atomic bomb exploded, which has killed 220,000 people to date, and for the first time, humanity had the power to destroy the worldγγγγγγ In 1969, for the first time, mankind left the earth and landed on the moon, and the space age officially began, and it was no longer a dream to set foot on the starsγγγγγγ β
Yin and Khotan watched quietly, and from his boneless face, Wang Yang couldn't guess what was going on in his heart.
Finally, Wang Yang said: "The era of religion and belief has ended, the era of material civilization is kicking off, and the temples of Egypt have long been submerged in the vast desert and turned into the dust of history; I know that with your wisdom, you will soon be the greatest giant of our time again, but is this what you want? Have you and Aksuna waited three thousand years just to fall into these dogs and horses again? Everything here pales and shallow compared to that time, and you were once infinitely close to the gods, so why bother to bend to the height of all beings? β
Khotan was silent.
Wang Yang continued: "Are you satisfied with your own strength? Or do you think you can stand at the top of the world? In this land alone, there are many powerful forces hidden at the end of the world that are enough to make you helpless, once you encounter them one day, do you have the confidence to control your own fate and Aksuna's destiny? Or do you want to wait three thousand years again? β
His eyes flickered, as if he had moved.
Wang Yang was not discouraged: "As far as I know, in the world I am in, there have been many powerful beings who can overwhelm you, and it is very likely that they will come to this world one after another, or even come specifically for you, what should you do at that time?" β
Yin and Khotan's eyes were sharp, but he was still speechless.
Wang Yang played the footage of many science fiction movies: "The world is too vast, although you can compare to the gods in terms of religion, but don't you want to experience the wider starry sky in person?" Don't you want to explore why you are as powerful as the saints, but now you are gone? You don't want to analyze why the world is going on another track entirely? Don't you want to understand how life in different planes affects and approaches each other? β
Yin and Khotan swept through the pictures of exhaustive imagination, and enthusiasm gradually appeared in their eyes.
"The most important thing is," Wang Yang's eyes soared, the battle intent was surging, the momentum of the intermediate Saiyan was like a sea of anger, the black hair was raised without wind, and the entire mausoleum began to tremble slightly under the oppression of this momentum: "Don't you want to see a real powerhouse?" See if you have the strength to protect your beloved? Come, beat me, and I'll tell you. β
Feeling the momentum of Wang Yang rising into the sky, finally, Yin and Khotan's bloodshot eyes showed a smile and longing: "Horus is above, Osiris is below, Your Excellency Wang Yang, I am looking forward to this battle." β
Wang Yang slowly retracted his cold battle intent and bowed slightly again: "Thank you for your generosity, I will do my best not to let you down." After a pause: "I will return the Bible of the Dead to you, after this battle, whether we win or lose, I believe we will meet again soon." β

Zheng Zha and the others ran all the way back from the depths of the mausoleum, and as soon as they got out of the mausoleum, they subconsciously raised the guns in their hands, because there were at least dozens of black-clothed people waiting for them outside, and in the monitoring of these black-clothed people, their partners, O'Connor and others, as well as those few Americans, were also standing there.
O'Connor laughed and said, "See, I said I had already killed the mummy, you guys are making a big fuss like this!" β
Zheng Zha sighed secretly, and he said: "No, the mummy was not killed, it is a monster, ordinary bullets have no effect on it at all, no, all bullets have no effect on it." β
Except for the members of the reincarnation team, the rest of the people naturally didn't know what Zheng Zhe wanted to say, and the leader of the men in black, a man in black with lines on his face, said coldly: "You guys get out of here quickly!" It's better never to come backγγγγγγ This is the capital of the dead, and we don't mind turning you all into the dead if you ever come back! With that, the leader of the men in black took the lead and walked towards the mausoleum.
Truth be told, after all this upheaval, no one wanted to stay here any longer, so everyone ran back to the camping area without a word, packed up, and then hurried out of the capital of the dead on camels or horses.
Zheng Zha and the others followed at the end of the line, until this moment, they had the opportunity to look at their watches, according to the past situation, once the story plot is completely unfolded, the distance restraint should also disappear at the same time, so when everyone looked at their watches, they saw that the option representing the distance restraint on the watch had completely disappeared.
Zheng Qi first asked Zhan Lan: "Where is Wang Yang?" β
Zhan Lan replied, "There was no news after he went to stop the Yinzhou team, but when he left, he said that he would catch up as soon as the matter was over." I have already used the spirit scan to explore all the places within twenty kilometers of the surrounding area, except for the strange force interference in the mausoleum, Wang Yang's whereabouts have not been found anywhere else, I guess it should be in the mausoleum, right? I think with his wisdom and strength, there will be no danger. β
Zheng Qi nodded silently, then turned to Xiao Honglu and began to ask.
Xiao Honglu's camel was in the middle of the team, and he replied lightly: "No, I don't have any particularly good suggestions, but there are two doubtsγγγγγγ One, what is their mission for the Inzhou team? Kill the undead sacrifice Immorton? Or is it something else? β
"Second, does the Inzhou team also know about the special existence of the Undead Bible and want to get it?"
Zheng Zha was stunned for a moment and asked strangely, "The special existence of the Bible of the Undead?" What do you mean? β
Qi Tengyi suddenly said embarrassedly: "When I came out of the mausoleum just now, I picked up the Bibles of the Dead and looked at them a few timesγγγγγγ 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 a thousand bonus points, and you don't need the number of side plots, but you can only learn it after returning to the 'main god' spaceγγγγγγ β
Zheng Zha and the others immediately looked at each other and became excited. Zhan Lan said: "This is what Wang Yang said, get props and learn skills from the plot." β
Xiao Honglu sighed: "So, is the harvest in the plot also an important part of promoting growth?" By the way, does it cost a lot of bonus points to learn a legendary magic skill in the 'main god' space? β
Zhan Lan hurriedly said: "Not only are the reward points, but also the number of many side plots is consumed, such as my current mental scanning skills, which consume thousands of reward points and C-level side plots, and those offensive skills are even more expensive." β
Qi Tengyi suddenly said a little shyly: "I'm sorryγγγγγγ I can read ancient Egyptian scriptsγγγγγγ β
Everyone was silent in an instant, and dozens of seconds later, Zheng Zha, Zero, and Zhang Jie all pulled out their guns, and Zhao Yingkong pulled out the dagger that was burning with flames, and several people didn't even look at each other at all, they very tacitly controlled the camel to gallop in the direction of those Americans, and the Undead Bible should be in the arms of the old American professor at this moment.
When the Middle-earth team arrived, they saw the Americans riding on their horses with a flattering face, and then disappeared from sight at an incredible speed.
And the black book that was originally in the old professor's arms was quietly placed in the γγγγγγ Hovering over Wang Yang's hand in mid-air.
When Wang Yang returned to the team, everyone was very surprised and came up to say hello.
Zhan Lan hurriedly asked, "When did you come back?" How do you get your hands on the Bible of the Dead? β
Wang Yang smiled: "As soon as these Americans saw me, they fell off their horses, and before I could speak, they took the initiative to hand over the book." It seems that the intervention outside the camp not only protected the descendants of the pharaoh's guards, but also made these American cowboys know how to cherish life. β
Zheng Zha looked behind Wang Yang: "Why have you stayed in the back for so long?" Haven't you touched a resurrected mummy? β
Wang Yang said lightly: "I just went to meet a very great person. β
"Great people?" Zheng Zha said to himself: "It's not easy to get your respect!" Who is it, do I know? β
Wang Yang looked at him with a smile: "You just met, it seems that you are still very unfriendly to greet him with a gun." β
Zheng Zha asked in surprise, "Immorton?" β
Not only Zheng Zha, but also the Zhongzhou team all looked at Wang Yang in shock.
Wang Yang's eyes turned to the mausoleum, and his eyes showed deep respect: "As one of the four ancient civilizations, no matter how the history of Egypt is written, it cannot be separated from Immorton, no, more precisely, it should be the name of India and Khotan." β
Xiao Honglu looked at Wang Yang: "You admire him very much?" β
Wang Yang said quietly: "He was a great man who stood at the peak of the times during his lifetime, with far-reaching plans and magnificent thoughts. Because of his glorious experience, it was not until the end of the 19th century that he was reduced to a real historical figure, and before that, in the minds of most scholars, he was a mythical fictional figure; In the hearts of the Egyptian people, he was the only human being to be worshipped as a god; His achievements span art, science, politics and faith. As an architect, he built Egypt's first stepped pyramid, which became a symbol of eternity; He was also the first physician, priest, scribe, saint, poet, astrologer, prime minister, and principal minister of the Western world, and he is believed to be the author of the Edwin Smith papyrus scroll, perfecting the way mummies were made with his vast knowledge of human anatomy, and developed an astonishing medical procedure, performing the first brain surgery in history; These achievements, which seem absolutely impossible today, really happened to him, 2,200 years before the birth of Hebercrates, the father of Western medicine; Whenever the Egyptian secretary unfolded a new papyrus, he would sprinkle a few drops of water as a sign of respect for him. The Greeks fused him with Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, renamed him Imopis, and built a temple of Aklepion in Sakkara to worship him. He was only an Egyptian, but he had earned the respect of the Greek, Roman, and Arab worlds, and I had been looking forward to meeting him for a long time. β
It's just that the Zhongzhou team who has watched the movie "Legend of Gods and Ghosts" knows these historical facts, it turns out that the evil sacrifice in the movie who wants to destroy the world is such a giant bull, everyone was stunned for a while.
Zheng Zha stammered and reminded: "γγγγγγ Even if this is true, he is still our enemy. β
Wang Yang glanced at him lightly: "I haven't forgotten my position." However, such a true giant, even if it is hostile, should be fully respected. β

I have always believed that it is not his friends, not his relatives, but his enemies who are most qualified to judge him.
If you are a person who even respects his enemies, that is true greatness.
