Chapter 4 Travel to Cantara
readx;
Those who were going to decide to go to Egypt and those who were going to return to Egypt were divided into two factions, and after a long debate, no one could convince anyone, and finally they finally agreed on a course of action. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It's close to Egypt now, and it won't be long before you get there, get there first, and then let the people who are going to return to the rescue go back on the Black Princess.
After just over an hour, the Black Princess anchored in Port Said, and Joshua, as the owner of the Black Princess, and many family members were in Greece, so he followed the seven heirs back. And his daughter, Jessica, originally wanted to stay, but could not resist her father's request and returned. This time, there were nine people who went back, and only six people remained.
The vampire old man Lawrence, the whip-wielding Mister, the fiery beauty Laura, the dwarf who looks very similar, Joseph who wields an axe, Janet, who seems to be rich in biological energy and has bought a lot of Wang Chen's things, and a man named Wia stayed.
Among them, Wia looked to be in his sixties, hunchbacked, and fought with hook and claw gloves, and everyone else called him Old Wia. When this person fought the sea monster Setus before, he could transform into a monster that looked similar to the velociraptor in his opinion, and his strength was barely okay in Wang Chen's opinion.
Joshua left Wang Chen a badge card that resembled a business card, hoping that he would be a guest of his family in Greece when he returned from Egypt, and Wang Chen nodded in agreement. He used to have the White Bird Sacred Vestment and the Phoenix Sacred Vestment, and when he heard that a new Greek warrior had descended, he wanted to go and see it.
After getting the general information about Egypt from the old coercion, Wang Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This ancient civilization as ancient as China, the monsters that have descended are no less than the types of monsters in China, but because the Egyptians have scattered surnames and are not as suitable for survival under pressure as the Chinese, the current situation in Egypt is much more severe than that of China.
The center of Egypt is in the middle and lower reaches of the Nile Valley. The largest gathering place was originally in the capital Cairo, but Cairo was attacked by monsters such as pharaohs, mummies, and scarabs that came out of the pyramids, and the people of the gathering place could not resist and had moved to Mansura in the north. In all of Egypt, there are now less than ten gathering places that have not been destroyed by monsters. The original Cairo has truly become a capital of the dead.
Cairo was occupied by the mummy of the pharaohs, and Immortun, the high priest who held the "Bible of the Dead" and the "Golden Book of the Sun", is now entrenched in the famous ancient city of Luxor in the upper reaches of the Nile, where the temple originally used to worship the main god Amun has been turned into a temple to Anubis, the god of death.
High Priest Immorton is naturally the villain in "The Return of the Mummy", and he used to be the high priest next to Pharaoh. At a jousting tournament, Immorton fell in love at first sight with Pharaoh's most beloved woman, "Aksuna", and when the two were cheating on each other, Pharaoh discovered that Aksuna stabbed Pharaoh to death with a dagger and killed herself in order to protect Immorton.
And Immorton was sentenced to the most brutal capital punishment for such crimes: gouging out his eyes, cutting out his tongue, wrapping them into mummies and putting them in a coffin, and then putting hundreds of scarab beetles in the coffin to eat away at his body, making him die the most painful death.
This evil punishment will also have terrible consequences, once the mummy of Immorton is awakened by the spell, he will become an evil god with boundless power.
Now the evil god has returned, and he has been given two powerful scriptures. However, Immorton is not as evil as the legend says, he is similar to the Zhang Jiao brothers in China, and does not kill civilians casually, but keeps them in captivity and becomes his own subjects. The lives of ordinary people near Luxor have not changed much before the arrival of monsters, but the heirs have been relatively unlucky, and they have all been turned into mummies by the high priest with the Bible.
In another big city in Egypt, "Alexandria", the most famous woman in Egyptian history, known as Cleopatra, is called "Cleopatra", there are games and movies about this woman, and I don't know which world she came from, only that this woman can indulge the terrible poisonous snake like the tide of the sea.
Naturally, it is impossible for the whole of Egypt to descend only on these three super bosses, and there are a large number of boss monsters roaming various regions, such as the two super bosses roaming the fields between the west bank of the Nile and the Valley of the Kings: the rock colossus Memnon and so on. However, the other monsters don't have the courage to control the city as the three super bosses.
Of course, this is only the monster that came in the first wave, and what the second wave came, it is impossible for the old coercion to know.
Wang Chen's first purpose was naturally the two scriptures in Immorton's hand, as well as the sun god spear that killed the "Scorpion King" in the movie. However, in Egypt, there must be other powerful treasures besides these, after all, Egypt is an ancient country rich in myths and legends.
After landing from Port Said in the Mediterranean, the nearest gathering place was Kantara, where the six Greek heirs were going to rest, and to listen to the information of the second group of monsters. The third is to go to Cairo, Luxor, Alexandria and other big cities to hunt super bosses, and it is completely impossible without a large number of successors. These cities have a large number of ordinary bosses and low-level monsters, which are not something that a few heirs can deal with.
Wang Chen has such confidence, with the speed of his flight and the strength he has, ordinary monsters and bosses do not pose any threat to him, if it was the original, he would definitely rush directly, but now that a new monster has descended, he doesn't dare to be too big. Egypt has a lot of myths and stories, and if a legendary god were to befall him, even if he used Susanoo, he might not be able to win.
Originally, he didn't think that the so-called gods would descend, but Yanjing actually even descended from the red boy in Journey to the West, which made him a little worried.
Anyway, Zheng Tai has already said that there is no need to worry about the Botanical City, let him fight some more super bosses in Egypt and go back, then he will not be in a hurry and follow the six inheritors of Greece to act together. Anyway, if he was left alone to find Immorton, he might get lost in the long yellow sand, although his road idiocy was not serious, but he did not have a precise sense of understanding and direction.
The group walked towards Kantara, and the other six were all sitting on a monster called "chocobos", and Wang Chen inquired and learned that these chocobos hatched from "chocobo eggs" bought from an inheritor, and after buying and hatching, they naturally became demons. Although the price is expensive, these inheritors can afford it.
The speed of the chocobo was very fast, Wang Chen did not fly or ride the Water Monarch Beast, and there was a "jumping bicycle" in his creation watch, which came in handy now.
I didn't encounter any amazing monsters along the way, except for a few low-level monsters that could occasionally be seen wandering. After all, the distance from Port Said to Kantara is not far, and in the vicinity of the large gathering place, there are basically no boss-level monsters, and almost all of them have been cleaned up by the heirs.
Killing a low-level monster with a little biological energy, whether it is Wang Chen, or Lawrence and other inheritors, they are not interested in doing it, not to mention that these monsters only appear a few occasionally. Only the heiress Janet released her demon, a "woman bird" with a woman's head and an eagle-like body, using sharp claws to tear low-level monsters to pieces, and not letting go of a single one, but Wang Chen somewhat understood why she was so rich.
Although the woman bird is a flying monster, the size of the body is obviously not for people to ride, and the combat power and defense power do not seem to be higher than the armor bird, if there is no special ability, at most it is a three-star monster.
The northern part of Egypt is within the equator and has a hot climate. Wang Chen has an energy body, even if he is soaked in magma, he is only a leisure, and he is not afraid of such heat. Soon the Greek heirs riding chocobos and Wang Chen, who was riding a bicycle, arrived at Kantara, a large gathering place with fortified facilities outside, and Wang Chen saw some stone statues of human heads about the size of adults standing on the city walls.
These defensive structures, called "Statues of Grace", were capable of spitting out fiery beams like lasers, and were so powerful that a single blow was enough to shoot a hole-sized hole in a centimeter-thick steel plate, but it didn't seem to be many, and Wang Chen only saw a total of twelve statues of Grace on the large northern wall as far as his eye could see. The masonry of the entire northern city wall is pitted and seems to have undergone a massive monster siege.
Because the old coercion was very familiar with the person in charge at the city gate, Wang Chen and the others were not subjected to any interrogation and trouble. For Wang Chen, an Oriental in a group of Greeks, the man surnamed Wang Chen, whose skin was tan, with a high nose and sunken eyes, immediately put his hand on his shoulder after learning that he was Chinese, and warmly expressed that he was very happy to see a Chinese friend, China and Egypt are good brothers, etc., which made Wang Chen feel very speechless.
The purpose of the Greek group here is to find out the information of the second batch of monsters that have descended, and to make a stop here to see if they can gather a group of powerful successors, and then go to Mansura, the largest gathering place in Egypt, and then gather a group of successors, and attack towards a large monster gathering area such as Cairo.
It would have been better if the successors of Mansoura had been persuaded to wage war to return to Cairo. After that, it's Luxor, south of Cairo. As for Cleopatra in Alexander, she only heard that she had the ability to indulge poisonous snakes, but she did not hear that she had any high-level treasures, and neither the Greek heirs nor Wang Chen had any interest in her.
Mansura's successors were driven out of the capital city of Cairo by the Pharaohs, and it was not easy to convince them to retake Cairo, but the Greek heirs were prepared to try their luck. After all, there are so many mummies and scarabs in Cairo that they don't wash their hair for a month, and just a few people go in to deliver food to the monsters.
Wang Chen was not in a hurry to kill monsters and obtain items such as equipment skills. After reaching the top of the third order of awakening, he already knew the importance of the realm. Judging from the blood energy that he originally possessed and the control and use of blood energy now, the power that can be exerted is simply the difference between heaven and earth. If there is no realm, a seven-star level skill may only be able to exert the power of a five-star level, and after the realm is reached, a five-star level skill may also be able to exert the power of a seven-star level.
His sixth sense has a hunch that the degree of awakening is far more important than he thought before, and the awakening level after opening it is likely to be achieved only through comprehension, and it has nothing to do with fighting.
Of course, if there are treasures that are more powerful than Zhu Guo, such as the legendary ginseng fruit, the Nine Turns Golden Pill, the Blood Bodhi, the Dragon Yuan, etc., it may be possible to open the awakening degree to the fourth order, but such treasures are inherently available but not sought.
The eight-star treasure of Zhu Guo was obtained from the underground fire ruins, and the country of Egypt, as an ancient civilization, is likely to have many ruins. Wang Chen inquired about Old Wia and learned that he had not heard of the Scorpion King coming to Egypt. Now that Immorton has arrived, he is almost certain that the Scorpion King will also come, and if there is no Scorpion King among the new batch of Advent monsters, then the ruins of the Scorpion King in Egyptian legend will definitely appear.
The buildings in Kantara are almost entirely white masonry, with mosques interspersed with them. To Wang Chen's surprise, the ordinary people in this city are not like the ordinary people in the Chinese gathering place, because of hunger and torture, their faces are full of gray color, Wang Chen and the others arrived here at noon when the food was distributed, he saw that a large stall had been set up on the street, and some people were carrying bread from the cart to the stall, these people were not soldiers, nor inheritors, and there were no weapons on them, and no one stepped forward to snatch food.
After the dough was placed, the staff pulled the cart to the next stall, around which ordinary people were gathered to hand out the dough by two elderly women. These people are laughing and laughing with each other while waiting for food, which is very different from the soldiers next to them who are armed with guns and ammunition to maintain order when China sends food, while ordinary people are stern and silent.
Under the leadership of "Hamdi", the captain of the city gate guard who affectionately hugged his "Chinese brother", Wang Chen and his party met the supreme governor of the gathering place, an old man named "Tripa", this old man is not the successor, and he shows that he has not yet received any information about the new monster. And after hearing Lawrence's request for them to recruit heirs here to go to the Mansoura gathering place, Tripa thought for a few seconds before agreeing, much to Wang Chen's surprise.
After all, it seems that it is not a trivial matter for foreigners to recruit heirs here, and they are preparing to lead them to another gathering place.
Wang Chen asked the self-cooked Hamdi in a low voice, and Hamdi said in surprise: "It is not strange that the heirs are willing to go to which gathering place is their freedom. ā
