Chapter 62: O'Connor

It all started 3,000 years ago, in the powerful kingdom of ancient Egypt, when the pharaoh Seti I had a favorite concubine, Aksuna, who was his forbidden and no one was allowed to touch her.

However, Immorton, the high priest at the time, had an adulterous affair with Aksuna, and the two committed adultery in Pharaoh's dormitory while he was not in the capital.

But what the two didn't expect was that the pharaoh returned to the royal capital ahead of schedule and inadvertently broke the adultery between the two.

Immorton and Aksuna teamed up to murder the Pharaoh, and Aksuna committed suicide in front of the Pharaoh's guards who rushed in.

Immorton fled, and with him, he led a group of temple monks loyal to him, risking his life to steal Aksuna's body from the tomb in order to resurrect his lover.

He took the body to the tombs of the pharaohs and the place where the treasures were accumulated, the Tower of Hamna, the capital of the dead, which had a direct passage to Hades.

As a high priestess serving the gods, Immorton has mastered a powerful spell, and he has taken out the holy book that can control death, the Black Book of the Dead.

Aksuna's soul has been returned to Hades, and her internal organs have been ripped out and placed in five urns.

What Immorton has to do is to use the Black Sutra of the Dead to perform a conjuring spell to summon Aksuna's soul back from the underworld, and then resurrect it.

As the ritual was about to be completed, the pharaoh's guards suddenly broke into the Tower of Hamna, interrupting the conjuring ceremony.

Aksuna's soul was forced back into Hades, and Immorton and his monks were arrested by the guards.

In order to severely punish them for their sins, the monks were mummified alive.

As for the leader Immorton, because of the murder of the Pharaoh and the disturbance of the peace of the dead, he was betrayed to accept the most terrible punishment in Egypt - insect devouring.

It was one of the most vicious of the curses of ancient Egypt, and it was too horrible to be inflicted.

Immorton was the first sinner in history to receive such a punishment, having his tongue cut out, wrapped in linen and mummified all over his body, and then imprisoned alive in an iron coffin.

Eventually, the coffin was filled with Egyptian scarabs, a black beetle that feeds on human flesh, and the beetles slowly devoured Immorton.

Before he died, he could still feel his body being eaten by one mouth, and his soul was trapped in the coffin forever.

Because this punishment is so vicious, legend has it that once the punished person is freed from the trap and returns from the underworld, he will become a monster that destroys Egypt.

The story began three years ago, when a group of soldiers traveled through the desert in search of ancient Egyptian treasures and found the Tower of Hamna.

However, they were attacked by the tomb keepers of the Tower of Hamna, descendants of the Pharaoh's guards.

According to the explanation in the original story, it seems that only two people survived, one is Rick O'Connor, the protagonist of the original story, and the other is Benny, a villain with a shameless temperament and greed for money.

Following Evelyn's siblings, Han Lie was dual-minded, talking and laughing with Evelyn in a low voice, while recalling the plot of the original story.

The purpose of their trip was to go to Cairo Prison to find O'Connor and ask him about Hamnatar.

Evelyn held up the hexagonal box and said, "My brother bought it from Thebes, and now he is taking us to the original owner, if he is the discoverer of this thing, then he may know something......"

Hearing this, Han Lie couldn't help but smile and glanced at Jonathan, and replied, "Yes, then your brother's luck is really good." ”

Coughing twice, Jonathan quickened his steps a little embarrassedly, "Don't talk about this useless nonsense, let's be smart, it's true to find him quickly." ”

Moments later, the three of them came to the outside of an old enclosed building, and at the door, a short and fat man who had been notified and was waiting there greeted them into the building.

Dirty environment, noisy atmosphere, the short and fat man stretched out his finger and pointed around, and said with a smile: "Welcome to Cairo Prison, this is my home." ”

This short and fat man is none other than the warden of Cairo Prison.

Evelyn shrank her head a little restrainedly, quietly glanced at Han Lie, and saw that he was looking around, not noticing this, and immediately raised her right foot and stepped on Jonathan's leather shoes fiercely.

She whispered in exasperation, "Didn't you say you bought it in Thebes?" Why did you run to Cairo prison again! Are you kidding me? ”

Jonathan hurriedly hugged his leg in pain and shouted, "Ah! It hurts, are you going to murder your own brother? ”

Han Lie couldn't pretend not to see it at this time, turned his gaze back, and said with a smile: "What happened?" ”

Stamping her foot, Evelyn pursed her lips, glared at Jonathan, and then said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, my brother lied to me, it doesn't seem that he bought this thing in Thebes." ”

Jonathan shouted again and again, "That's just that you heard it wrong!" Eve, how can you step on my feet, I'm your brother. ”

Seeing that he was still quibbling, Evelyn pinched her waist and glared at him angrily: "You are obviously lying to me and making me ugly in front of Han!" ”

Frightened by her fierce gaze, Jonathan shivered and hid behind Han Lie, "Okay, okay, I lied to you, but what's the big deal, Han won't mind, right?" ”

Hahaha, Han Lie grabbed Evelyn's wrist and pulled her to his right hand, and put Jonathan in his left hand position, standing in the middle, separating the two.

Then, he replied, "Yes, it's not a big deal, Eve, you don't have to pursue Jonathan anymore." ”

Muttering, Evelyn was still a little unwilling: "But I'm his sister, the biological sister of the same father and mother." ”

Jonathan, who felt that he was already safe, pursed his lips, "So it's better for you to deceive, I lie to everyone, and I have always treated everyone equally, even if it's my own sister." ”

Evelyn was immediately defeated by Jonathan's shamelessness, held her forehead, and squeezed out a smile to Han Lie: "My brother is like this, don't be surprised." ”

Han Lie hooked her palm and said with a smile: "It's okay, I said that I am very tolerant of beautiful women." ”

At this time, Evelyn reacted, her hands were still held by Han Lie, and she quickly retracted them like springs.

Staring at him in a daze, Evelyn muttered unsure of what she was talking about, "Yes... I mean... Thank you, yes, thank you......"

The warden interrupted their conversation, and his men pulled O'Connor out, and said to Evelyn, "That's it, if you have any business, just tell me quickly." ”

The unkempt O'Connor was kicked to his knees by the guards and knelt in front of the iron post, Evelyn pointed at him and asked Jonathan, "The box is from him?" ”

Jonathan nodded and was about to speak, when Han Lie suddenly took over: "In that case, why don't you let me ask, Eve." ”

He raised an eyebrow at Evelyn, "Serving a beautiful lady is what every true man should do. ”

Stunned, Evelyn smiled and said, "Of course, Han, you are really a warm gentleman. ”

There was a sudden confusion on the other side of the prison, and the warden said, "Sorry, I'm sorry." With that, he walked over.

Retracting his gaze from the warden, Han Lie turned around, squatted down slightly sideways, and whispered to O'Connor, who was looking at them, "I heard that you know about the situation in Hamnata Tower?" ”

Looking at him obsessively, O'Connor replied, "Hello, do I know you?" ”

Knowing O'Connor's character for a long time, Han Lie was not angry about it, he chuckled: "It doesn't matter, what matters is, do you want to be free?" ”

O'Connor's face froze, his expression calmed down, and he muttered for a moment, "Get me out, and then I'll take you to Hamnata Tower." ”

Before he finished speaking, the warden came back, he shouted to the prison guards, pulled O'Connor away, and sent him back to the inside of the prison, Han Lie met O'Connor's gaze and shouted silently: "Deal!" ”

Evelyn hurriedly asked, "What do you want to do with him?" ”

The warden tilted his head, gave a cruel smile, and grinned and replied, "Send him to the gallows." ”

However, Han Lie will not let him get his wish, although in the original story O'Connor was hung for a long time and did not die, he can't guarantee that this world will be like that.

If the noose breaks O'Connor's neck at the moment of his execution, then Han Lie will find someone to lead him to Hamnata Tower.

So under the puzzled eyes of Jonathan and Evelyn's siblings, Han Lie pulled the warden to the side, and took out a hundred pounds: "Dear sir, I think you will let him go, won't you?" ”

When Han Lie reached into his arms, the warden was still quite expectant, but when he saw that he only took out a hundred pounds, he immediately wanted to break away from him, "Just kidding, a hundred pounds is... Not...... Okay, you're right, I'll let him go. ”

Under the influence of Han Lie's psychic power to directly urge the soul seeking demon sound, how could the prison warden, who was just an ordinary person, resist, and immediately agreed in a daze.

Ten minutes later, outside the prison gate, O'Connor was grabbed by the arms of two prison guards and thrown at the feet of Han Lie and the others.

The stinky body made Evelyn and Jonathan feel a little disgusted, and subconsciously took two steps back, Han Lie helped him up and patted him on the shoulder, "Dude, I have fulfilled my promise." ”

O'Connor gently thumped his legs, glanced up at the three of them, and finally nodded his chin at Han Lie and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you there, but it's tomorrow." ”

Han Lie smiled: "No problem, I think you really have to find a hotel to tidy up now, if you need it, I can support you a little." ”

Shaking off his arm, O'Connor turned and walked into the city, "No need, wait for me at the docks tomorrow morning, we have to leave by boat." ”

Looking at O'Connor's back, Evelyn leaned over to Han Lie with some uncertainty and asked, "Han, are you sure this person really knows the location of Hamna Tower?" ”

With his eyes narrowing, Han Lie replied, "I think it's okay, don't worry, even if he dares to lie to us, Jonathan can take us to find him, right?" ”

Swept away by Han Lie's gaze, Jonathan shrugged his shoulders, "Of course, if he dares to lie, it will be miserable, after all, Han is not a good stubble, ho, think about Han's skills, sister, what are you worried about." ”

While speaking, Jonathan was still huffing and showing his clumsy skills, Evelyn shook her head helplessly, glanced at Han Lie, and stepped on him again, "Brother, what are you talking about?" ”

Han Lie waved his hand hurriedly and said with a smile: "Eve, don't be too distant, Jonathan has a great sense of humor, we are friends, it's okay." ”

Jonathan held his leg and complained: "That's it, we are good friends, Han doesn't mind me joking, why do you always step on me, I was the right foot before and now the left foot, I am about to be trampled into a cripple by you." ”

Glaring at the two of them in annoyance, Evelyn didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.
