Chapter 283: Princess, Do you think I'm suitable?
The tomb of the Egyptian princess Angmanette is actually a huge underground cave.
It is not as grand and huge as the pyramid of the pharaoh, but it is particularly eerie and terrifying.
Luke was the first to enter, followed by Dr. Henry and his "archaeological team".
The wolf king Lucian, as well as his compatriots, became dispensable and unimportant characters at this time.
Because of the existence of Superman, the magical journey that was originally fearful and dangerous is changing in the direction of outings and outings.
Everyone looked relaxed and slid down the high-strength nylon rope.
The hollow cavern was filled with the sound of the wind, and it let out a terrible scream like a ghost crying wolf.
"Mercury ......"
Dr. Henry followed Luke closely, as if he felt more secure.
A drop of cloudy liquid hits the shoulder, slips down, and rolls into the palm of your hand.
Just as the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used mercury to simulate rivers, lakes and seas, the ancient Egyptians also used a lot of this chemical element called "mercury" in the construction of tombs.
In their perception, mercury can suppress the souls of the dead, and it is also a means of preventing tomb robbers from breaking in.
Because it is neurotoxic, it can harm the brain and nervous system.
Many tomb robbers enter the pharaoh's mausoleum, and if they accidentally inhale too much mercury vapor, they will go insane and go crazy and die.
This is also the reason for the terrifying rumors such as "Pharaoh's curse" and "evil spirits asking for their lives".
In that era of ignorance, people often attached mysterious and grotesque explanations to unknown things they didn't know enough.
"Mercury drips from the top and falls into these holes."
Dr. Henry pointed his flashlight into the ground, and at regular intervals, a square hole resembled a sewer entrance.
"This means that there is a complete plumbing system in the tomb of the Egyptian princess, and we can follow the direction to find the coffin."
The corners of Luke's mouth twitched slightly as he listened, and he felt that the Hakumi Department was completely an experienced tomb robbing organization.
Some of the archaeological team members who came down set up lighting equipment, and some explored the terrain.
It seems that this is not the first time that they have carried out tomb robbery in the name of archaeology.
Worse still, according to Dr. Henry, what they received was eventually handed over to the state and placed in the Natural History Museum in London, which belonged to the Department of Knowledge.
It's like a left-handed hand-to-right-handed!
Luke couldn't help but sigh, when it comes to shamelessness, it's better to be capitalist Dafa.
"This is the antechamber of the mausoleum, and the mummified body of Ann Marnet is inside."
Studied for a while those huge statues, stick figure murals with a primitive atmosphere.
Dr. Henry rubbed his hands together and pointed to a swarthy hole.
He had a hunch that it was a big discovery.
Unaffected by the environment, Luke's gaze swept through the thick rock to determine the exact location of the coffin of the Egyptian princess.
"Seth's dagger in your hands?"
He turned his head and asked.
That's the key prop.
As a Supreme Mage, Luke's knowledge of magic is not too bad, and he knows a little about the application and casting of contract charms and reincarnation rituals.
Seth, the god of death, signed a contract with the Egyptian princess Ammanette, and the dagger set with rubies was an important medium.
Choose the right body and stab it with the dagger.
It will bring the Grim Reaper to life in a human body and gain full divine power.
It's a trick to circumvent the rules of the material world, and Luke has the impression that the old devil Mephisto has done something similar.
The latter united with mortals and gave birth to an heir.
Then take possession of that body, from a father to a son, and you can logically exert the full strength of a hell lord in the material world.
Otherwise, every time you come into this world, you will be suppressed by the rules.
"We found the gem. It fell into the hands of the Crusaders and was later placed in a coffin as a funerary object. ”
Dr. Henry replied.
"During the Crusades, they invaded Egypt. Perhaps it was at that time that they got the rubies. ”
If it weren't for the discovery of the ruby, some clues about the Egyptian princess would have been found.
Dr. Henry would not initiate this operation either, and hired the werewolf to act as a bodyguard, leading to a series of events that followed.
Luke frowned and continued to ask, "So, where the dagger is only known to Ammarnet himself?" ”
Dr. Henry nodded, otherwise he would not have thought of unsealing the coffin of the Egyptian princess.
Only the dagger and ruby in one can complete the final ritual.
Fighting monsters with monsters is the policy set at the beginning of the establishment of the Hiromi Department.
If you can study the power of death, or control Ammarnet for your own use.
The Hakumi Department has taken a big step on the road to darkness.
What the?
Consequence?
Nor can a high-level person with serious psychological problems and an evil personality be expected to make any wise decisions.
"Judging by the structure of the mausoleum, it can be guessed that Ammanet was imprisoned here as a sinner."
"A large amount of mercury was poured on the mouth of the well, suppressing the soul, so that she could not rest in peace for eternity and could not be reincarnated."
"Generally speaking, where the coffin is located, there will be a dog-headed caretaker to warn the intruder."
"But the six keepers are looking at the mouth of the mercury well, and the purpose is to suppress the dead mummy, and nothing else."
Dr. Henry, who habitually conducted academic science popularization, concluded: "Underneath this is an evil soul that has endured a thousand years of darkness, torment, and resentment. ”
After hearing this, the group of people from the Hiromi Department all approached Luke's location.
The latter's face was as usual, he had even been to hell, and he had negotiated terms with the old devil.
If there really is any evil spirit or evil ghost in front of you, a set of physical demon extermination will be sent away directly.
"Take the coffin out."
Luke ordered.
Dr. Henry observed for a moment, finding the open mechanism.
Thundered!
I heard only a violent sound, and the underground cave shook and shook.
A coffin, mottled with rust, slowly rose and was chained out of the mouth of the mercury well.
Then there are the dense camel spiders, which seem to feel anomalous, like a black "carpet" covering the rock walls.
"Thankfully, it's not a scarab."
Luke pursed the corners of his lips, that thing was standard in Egyptian mausoleums.
The bio-force field suddenly opened, isolating the camel spiders that crawled over.
"Find a helicopter and pull the coffin up."
Dr. Henry, who was a high-ranking member of the Broad Insight Department, was able to eat well in Iraq, and soon got a helicopter.
The coffin used to seal Ammanette has finally seen the light of day after thousands of years of darkness.
Large crows hovered in the air, as if attracted by some mysterious force, like gathered dark clouds.
"The power of Death Seth is starting to work."
Dr. Henry's face is solemn, and the raven is a symbol of death and a messenger of death.
"Ammanette has completed the summoning ceremony, signed the contract, and she has an immortal body, which can only be sealed."
"I guess it won't be long before it comes back to life."
Luke didn't care.
Not to mention the dead Egyptian princess, even if the god of death Seth appeared in front of him, it would not pose any threat.
The Egyptian gods are probably about the same strength as the dimensional demon gods.
What Luke is really interested in is the conceptual power of death.
Although Seth is only the Egyptian god of death, he has no control over other realms.
Asgard, Olympus, Heaven, Hell, none of it's his business.
But to get that power is also equivalent to having a part of the "death" authority.
"I hope she'll wake up sooner and lead me to that dagger."
Luke saw yellow sand and smoke billowing on the horizon.
A huge sandstorm is coming towards the helicopter.
As if the god of death could not come, Seth, wanted to stop the Hiromi Department from taking the coffin of the Egyptian princess Ammanette.
"Your Excellency, then I will return to London."
Dr. Henry glanced at the coffin, and felt a little stunned.
They landed at a nearby airfield, and a transport plane was ready to take off at any moment.
Luke was about to nod when the rusty coffin, wrapped in chains, suddenly vibrates.
The sharp sound of fingernails scratching suddenly sounded.
Faintly, you can still hear the woman's crying and shouting.
"Leave him alone."
A hollow-eyed member of the archaeological team, leaning towards the coffin like a puppet, Luke stops Dr. Henry.
The latter's idea was to bring Ann Marnet back to London, where he would conduct research and find out the whereabouts of the dagger.
But in Luke's opinion, it's all the same.
Wake up the Egyptian princess as soon as possible, it seems that it will be a little easier.
The members of the archaeological team near the coffin seemed to have fallen into a hallucination and were deprived of their minds.
They uttered awkward, strange syllables, cutting off the black chains that were wrapped around the coffin.
A large flock of crows hovering in mid-air was like a thick cloud covering the sky, blocking the blazing sun overhead.
A shriveled hand grabbed the edge of the coffin.
The slender figure wrapped in tattered cloth tapes slowly sat up.
Mummified Egyptian princess, Ammarnet, awakens.
She turned her head a little mechanically, her dark eyes fixed on the crowd.
Before Ammanette could speak, creating a more terrifying atmosphere, Luke spoke up, "Your Royal Highness, do you think I am suitable?" ”
"Can you be the god of death and walk in the flesh of the world?"
