The night was dark, the stars twinkled in the distant sky, the moonlight was hidden behind the thick clouds, it looked gray, the huge Titanic was moving smoothly on the endless sea, and the strong sea breeze was whistling on the deck. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the first-class cabin was still brightly lit, there was a faint sound of music, the stern was empty, and the two patrolling crew members laughed and walked around the cabin and walked in the direction of the bow.

A closed bulkhead was quietly opened, and several people walked out briskly with heavy loads, to the side of the ship on the right.

Sure that the two crew members walked far enough not to hear any movement, Liu Minghao and a young man joined forces to throw Fanette and the two guards who were trapped in zongzi out of the railing, and with the sound of several dull falling waters, the water splashed, and a faint low roar like a beast came from the sea.

The sea is the best place to dump the corpse, and at the speed of the ship at this time, it only takes a few minutes to leave Fanette and the others far behind.

Kerry stood a few steps away with a complicated expression, watching Liu Minghao cleanly dispose of Fennet, who had become a monster, and after cleaning up, the cold sea breeze blew on his face, like a knife cut, under the reflection of the cold light of the searchlight, it was dark all around, if it weren't for the fact that his throat was still aching faintly at this time, and his surroundings were soft, almost thinking that everything he had just experienced was just a dream.

"That's fine." Liu Minghao clapped his hands, took a few steps back and looked at the few people who were shivering in the sea breeze, "You all know what to do, go back and drink some wine, get some sleep, and treat all this as a nightmare and forget it completely." ”

Several people's hair fluttered in the wind, their faces were pale as ghosts in the light, although it had been a short time, but there was still horror in their expressions, like a frightened bird, the slightest sound would be immediately alert, and there was no desire to speak, hearing Liu Minghao's words, as if he had been amnesty, he immediately nodded to the two, and then turned around and fled as if he was leaving.

Regardless of asking, even without Liu Minghao's instructions, they will leave everything that happened tonight far behind as soon as possible.

Kerry has been standing in place, looking at the endless night with an expressionless face, Liu Minghao and Ye Xue glanced at each other, Ye Xue was about to speak, Kerry turned his head and looked directly at Liu Minghao, "No matter what, you saved me, even if I owe you a favor, I will find a way to pay it back to you." ”

Liu Minghao raised his eyebrows slightly, those people seemed to have lost their memory, and they didn't say a word about being rescued, but they didn't expect that the arrogant and arrogant Kerry was unexpectedly educated, although his expression was stiff and his tone was rigid, but he could still see that he was serious, not casually perfunctory. As if sensing Liu Minghao's surprise, Kerry also felt very embarrassed, nodded steadily at Yexue after speaking, and turned around and left quickly.

On the empty deck, only Liu Minghao and Ye Xue remained.

"It's going to be dawn soon, and it's time for us to solve the final problem." Ye Xue looked up at the lighted cabin on the second floor, took out a sachet and handed it to Liu Minghao, "This can remove the corpse qi of the mummy, our enemy may be stronger than expected, although the cross can suppress its actions, but it cannot play a greater role, when the time comes, we must move quickly, as much as possible to shorten the contact time, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

Liu Minghao was noncommittal, took the sachet and stuffed it into his breast pocket, a sound of footsteps gradually approached, and the two walked quickly across the deck, and quietly went around to the other side and entered the cabin before the patrolling crew appeared.

The mummy was not placed in Fennett's warehouse, and Liu Minghao found another storage slip in Fennett's room, which marked the area where the goods she was carrying.

The two escaped the sailors on duty in the bilge and made their way to the cargo hold on the ground floor.

The cargo hold is extremely large, with all kinds of goods, Liu Minghao and Ye Xue came to the rows of wooden boxes in Area E and soon found the mummy coffins disguised as ordinary goods in the rows of wooden boxes hanging above.

The coffin was sealed in a rectangular wooden box, and Liu Minghao used a crowbar to crack the top planks and remove the thatch that covered it, revealing the intricately carved coffin inside.

The coffin is pitch black, painted with golden lines, different from the common coffin that preserves mummies, the human shape on the surface of this coffin, wearing traditional Egyptian costumes, holding both hands and chests, and it is difficult to hold two magic sticks symbolizing royal power, but the face is not carved according to the color of the deceased, but a lifelike jackal, with violent eyes and a wide mouth and grinning, which looks particularly hideous and terrifying.

Liu Minghao frowned slightly, because he had entered the mummy world before, he had a certain understanding of the tomb culture of ancient Egypt, usually the coffin was painted outside the face of the deceased, unless there were very special circumstances, the pattern on the coffin would be changed, like the evil crime, Immorton who was cursed by insects, and the spell of insect devouring was drawn outside his coffin, but this situation in front of him was extremely rare, and it also revealed an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

"A symbol of the coming of the jackal god at this time." Ye Xue found a miner's lamp in the corner of the warehouse, put the wait on the wooden box on the side, and looked at the coffin closely, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her face was solemn.

The so-called advent of the jackal god is similar to the legendary invitation to the gods, through some kind of ritual, the gods are introduced into the body, and a way to obtain the power of the gods, such people, usually like the holy children selected by some West Asian countries, can only live in the temple for the rest of their lives, and after death, they will return the power to the gods by sacrificing the way, which is similar to the existence of guardian messengers.

"This sect was widespread in Egypt thousands of years ago, but it has since declined for unknown reasons, and only a few words are recorded in the oldest texts, but nothing has survived." Yexue circled the wooden box twice, studying the ornamentation very carefully, and said thoughtfully, "I didn't expect to see it here, this may be the only example left in the world." ”

"In other words, this mummy is a sacrifice that has lost the power of the gods." Liu Minghao raised his eyebrows slightly, "That shouldn't pose too much of a threat to us." ”

"That's not the case." Yexue shook her head slightly, "This kind of guardian messenger is usually a sacrifice cultivated since childhood, and they gain power through the ritual of the god at a very young age, just like Immorton, they will receive strict training and education, and they have very strong power in themselves, even if they don't have the power of the gods, they are also among the best warriors." ”
