Chapter 110: The Sun God's Gaze
In the movie, the Hamna Tower is just a backdrop wall, and a few passages represent everything. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But when Wu Ming entered here, he found that this place was grand and magnificent, and it was really not a few passages and corridors that could be passed by in one stroke.
"Fluorescent Twinkle!" Several fluorescent magic balls surrounded Wu Ming, lighting up like ghost fires.
Wu Ming looked around with interest, there were many ancient Egyptian murals here. It tells how to make mummies and how to punish invaders who enter the Tower of Hamna.
In ancient Egypt, the city of the dead, Hamnata, was a sacred place to worship Hanubis, the god of death. Anyone who trespasses here is brutally mummified and left with a mural as a warning.
It's a pity that time has passed, and today's Hamna Tower has long been dilapidated.
Many of the walls even have cracks, and people can't help but worry that if one of them is bad, the place will collapse completely.
"Look, what did I find!" When he walked around a corner, Wu Ming suddenly stopped.
In this corner, there were many dents in the walls, and there were blue gems on them, which were shining under fluorescence.
Of course, Wu Ming is not an ordinary person and will not be deceived by appearances.
These blue gems look colorful, but they are all disguised as a killing creature, a man-eating scarab.
"Those who disturb the sleep of the dead will be dragged to hell!"
Looking at the warning signs on the wall, Wu Ming tilted his head and thought for a moment, then slowly stretched out his finger and lightly tapped on these dormant scarabs.
Click...
The blue stone shell of the scarab beetle began to shatter under Wu Ming's fingers. And with the appearance of the crack, the entire Hamna Tower shook slightly, as if it had triggered a mechanism.
In the next second, the stone carapace on the body of the scarab beetle disguised as a sapphire began to crack rapidly.
Accompanied by a dense buzzing sound, the black scarab under the blue camouflage trembled and began to revive, letting out a sharp cheer.
It is an ancient curse, the resurrected scarab, that will kill all intruders.
Wu Ming watched this scene quietly, his face couldn't help but show a three-point smile, and he strode towards the depths of the passage.
... Rumble...
didn't wait for Wu Ming to walk far, and there was a sound of overwhelming mountains and seas coming from behind.
Two black waves of scarab beetles swept in two directions of the passage.
Hearing the sound from behind, Wu Ming didn't think about it, and raised his hand to make a blasting spell.
The powerful blasting spell hit the passage behind him, accompanied by a violent collapse sound, quickly burying the hole behind Wu Ming.
As the entrance to the cave was buried, the scarab beetles, who had nowhere to go, left a part of the excavation passage, and the rest rushed towards the entrance of the cave where they went out.
For this result, it is exactly what Wu Ming wants.
Whoever tries to get in from outside will be a roadblock. And taking advantage of this time, Wu Ming will be able to find out the location of the Golden Book of the Sun and the Bible of the Dead.
Time was very tight, and Wu Ming didn't know how much time these scarabs could buy him, so he had to step up.
Layer by layer, Wu Ming, who did not know the exact location, could only follow the mural.
These murals are like road signs, Wu Ming will not go to the passage without the mural, and the passage with the mural will pass through quickly.
In this way, ten minutes later, Wu Ming walked to the end of the mural, in a wider hall.
Inside this hall, there are many statues of the pharaohs on both sides, and at the end of the many statues, there is a golden statue of the god.
"Statue of the Lord God of Egypt, the Sun God!" Seeing this statue, Wu Ming's eyes appeared fiery.
In the Hamna Tower, the Bible of the Dead and the Golden Book of the Sun are placed next to two statues.
Among them, the Bible of the Dead belongs to the Grim Reaper and is with Immorton's coffin. The Golden Book of the Sun is placed in the hands of the Sun God, that is, in the hands of the statue in front of him.
"Praise be to you, great sun god!" Facing the statue of the sun god, even if Wu Ming was an unbeliever, his mouth also let out a sound of praise.
After all, this is a world of gods and ghosts, and there are gods behind it. Even if these gods have never appeared in person, they can be described again and again in the movie, which proves that this world is unusual.
Wu Ming didn't have much affection for the gods, but in the face of absolute power, he felt that he needed to maintain a certain amount of humility before he had the ability to talk on an equal footing.
Humbly bowing his head, Wu Ming respectfully stretched out his hands and took the Golden Book of the Sun from the hands of the idol.
As soon as the Sun Golden Book was in his hands, Wu Ming felt that the gaze of the god statue showed a bit of appreciation.
It's a weird feeling, it's so intense, it's too strong to ignore.
Wu Ming didn't know that it was his own respect that was praised by the sun god. Or protect the golden book of the sun, which has been affirmed by the other party. However, he could understand that at this moment, there was really a being in the shadows, looking at him with admiration.
"Who is this man, the sun god that the Egyptians believed?" Wu Ming held the Sun Golden Book in his hand and couldn't help but think of this question.
It's a pity that the admiring gaze only flashed and lasted less than two seconds.
By the time Wu Ming couldn't help but be curious and secretly looked at the idol in front of him, there was no strangeness about the statue, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that the statue returned to normal, Wu Ming shook his head regretfully, hugged the golden book of the sun, and left the hall where the statue was located.
The next moment, as soon as he walked out of the hall, the sound of battle was heard in his ears.
Hearing the sound of battle, Wu Ming frowned slightly, and his heart was a little more worried.
You must know that the scarab beetle's combat effectiveness is strong, and it is aimed at ordinary people. Outside, whether it is the white-clothed squad or the hometown squad, there must be countless ways to deal with these scarabs, and it is really hard to say how much time they can stop.
"I need more time to find the Bible of the Dead. Remember that in the movie, inside the Hamna Tower, there are countless mummy guards. These guards receive only two orders, one from the High Priest's command, and the other from the Golden Book of the Sun! Thinking of this, Wu Ming looked down at the Sun Golden Book in his hand.
The entire Golden Book of the Sun is made of gold, with an eight-pointed star on the cover, which is tightly closed, and cannot be opened without a key.
It just so happened that Wu Ming was the one who had the key, and this key was nothing else, it was the black box that contained the map of Hamna Tower.
Take out the box and slowly twist it to the right against the eight-pointed star of the Golden Book of the Sun.
With a grinding sound, the Golden Book of the Sun slowly opened, revealing the contents of the first page.
"In accordance with the will of the gods, I command you as the bearer of the book, and the guardians of the tomb obey the orders!" As the words on the book were read, in an instant, one after another secret doors were opened in countless passages.
Out of these open secret doors, accompanied by the sound of neat footsteps, came a mummified warrior wearing armor and holding a weapon.
In just half a minute, the mummified warriors formed four stubborn phalanxes in front of Wu Ming's eyes, as if they were soldiers being reviewed.
Seeing this scene, Wu Ming showed a little smile on his face, pointed to the passage where the sound of battle came, and said, "I order you, at all costs, to block the invaders and buy me more time!" ”
... Swish...
The mummified guards of the four phalanxes bowed their heads slightly to Wu Ming, and then brandished their respective weapons and rushed out under Wu Ming's eyes.
