Chapter 3: The Tower of Hamna

The desert Hanhai has almost no constant yellow, and the sand dunes are the sand dunes as far as the eye can see. The sun shone on the yellow sand, diffracting the color of gold, but this dazzling color had been seen for a long time, and there was nothing but dizziness.

Squinting at the four people riding camels on the desert in the distance, Adesbay's heart slowly floated with murderous intent. He belongs to an ancient secret organization, the Grave Keeper, who has guarded the city of the dead for 3,000 years, and has vowed to do everything in his power to prevent the legendary High Priest Immorton from returning to the earth! But now

If it weren't for the delay, you would have died the other day! Raising his hand, Adesbay was about to beckon his fellow grave keepers to charge, when he suddenly saw a man in red in the distance who led the way glance at them, and then four camels began to charge!

Did you find out? But "Charge!" ”

What if you find out? How far can a couple of civilian camels run?

A sense of peeping with murderous intent made Liu Hong's brows furrow slightly. Due to the gaze or breath of the gods not long ago, Liu Hong is now very vigilant, so as soon as the peeping gaze fell on him, he immediately reacted. Turning his head to look at the location where the sense of peeping came from, Liu Hong saw a group of men in black riding horses on the sand dunes watching them.

Grave Keeper! Liu Hong is very clear about the identities of those people. Originally, he thought that the grave keepers would attack him when they were on a boat, as in the original book, so he would be okay to stay at the bow of the boat. After all, although they left Cairo much faster because of him, it was impossible for the grave keeper not to get the news. The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities is also one of the tomb keepers!

"O'Connor, are we almost there?" Looking at the grave keeper on the hill, Liu Hong asked O'Connor beside him.

"Probably so." O'Connor said indifferently, his eyes fixed on the surroundings. They had passed through countless sand dunes, and now the sand under the camel's feet had grown thicker. Large rocks and some weathered rocks also appeared on both sides: "I only know the approximate location of the Hamna Tower. When the sun appears, the city of the dead will appear. ”

"Then let's get up to speed." As he spoke, Liu Hong motioned for O'Connor to look at the sand dunes where the grave keeper was.

"Oh, damn it, it's those guys!" Although O'Connor didn't know the grave keepers, he was impressed by the group of men in black on the top of the dunes! If it weren't for those men in black, he wouldn't have lost all his comrades and then spent another three years in a prison in Cairo!

"Pretty gentlemen and girls. We need to speed up! A group of messengers of death have their sights on us! O'Connor shouted as he tapped the camel under his crotch.

"Messenger of Death? What's that? Not to mention the army of the legendary Grim Reaper! Evelyn asked in a loud voice, but she also twitched wisely at the camel under her crotch. Regardless of whether there is really a messenger of death, if she accidentally gets separated from O'Connor, the person who knows the location of Hamnata, how can she go to Hamnata? Fascinated by archaeology and Egyptian culture, she would never allow this to happen.

"Let's look back! You don't think Hamna Tower is unguarded, do you? ”

Looking back? Evelyn turned back with Jonathan, who was listening to their conversation

"What are those men in black for?" Jonathan twitched the corners of his mouth and shouted to O'Connor, who was running at the front. Looking at the gesture of the group of men in black brandishing their weapons and charging at them, Jonathan didn't think it meant to be friendly at all!

"Hell knows! But my comrades died at their hands, and I was imprisoned because of them! O'Connor's tone had a hint of resentment. Also, all my comrades-in-arms were wiped out, and I suffered in prison for another three years, so it's strange that I don't have grudges!

Ignore what was being said between the three O'Connor. Liu Hong, who glanced back, frowned slightly. Compared to the horses of the grave keepers, the camels under their crotches were a little slower, and they would be caught up in less than half an hour if the momentum continued. So he divided a few rays of true qi and poured them into them and the camels under his crotch, blessing their strength and physical strength.

"Wow! Not bad! Good guys! The increase in the speed of the crotch mount naturally made O'Connor ecstatic. That means they have more lives, maybe not? He wouldn't think that he was the protagonist and could lead a group of incompetent guys to counterattack that group of fighters who were not afraid of death!

"I suddenly feel like those profiteers aren't killing us!" Jonathan also sighed with a smile on his face.

Damn it! What breed of camel is that herd? Looking at Liu Hong and the others, who were a little faster, Adesbay suddenly had a feeling that common sense had been subverted!

Liu Hong: Where did they buy camels, he had already investigated clearly, but what the hell is this speed now?

After about an hour of running, Liu Hong found that they had gotten rid of the grave keeper. They no longer blessed the camels with their true qi, and their speed naturally slowed down.

After slowing down. Jonathan looked back and saw that he couldn't see the group of men in black anymore, so he complained loudly, "Whew! My ass! I swear I'll never ride a camel again, you nasty fellow! ”

"Enough! Don't mention it again! If it weren't for them, maybe you'd already be meeting Anubis! Evelyn was well aware of her brother's character, and she didn't want to endure Jonathan's chattering all the time.

Compared to Jonathan. Evelyn, the librarian, is still a girl, and the pain is naturally even more intense, and she now feels that her ass is not her own!

"Nope! I believe in God."

"We're here!" Just as Jonathan was about to say that Anubis could not judge him, a believer in God, O'Connor's voice interrupted him.

"Here?"

Collapsed buildings, long walls. The dilapidated ancient city, almost half of which was in the sand, crouched like a giant beast, emitting a golden-red glow under the rays of the setting sun, making the few people who watched it from a distance feel sacred and vicissitudes!

It's just that compared to others, Liu Hong has other feelings, fear, curse, pain, and resentment seems to have turned into substance in his perception! It's just that

There is no despair! More than 3,000 years of life and death did not make the high priest despair!

"What has made you hold on to this? Ansuna love? Liu Hong muttered a little distracted. Infinite admiration suddenly arose in his heart. Not to mention 3,000 years, it will make him collapse in a year!

"What? Ansuna? Your lover? Evelyn on the side heard Liu Hong's muttering, but she didn't hear all of it clearly, but before she could ask anything, O'Connor spoke.

"I suggested we rest for the night before going in. After all, the chase has consumed most of our physical strength, and the night will disappear there, I don't think you want to put yourself in unknown danger, do you? O'Connor suggested very solemnly.

"Disappear? You're kidding! So big" Jonathan, who was about to taunt O'Connor, was stunned.

The sunset slowly but surely sinks into the dunes, taking away its light and the Tower of Hamna!

"It's really gone," muttered Jonathan, who had grown his mouth. The same is true for his sister Evelyn, only O'Connor, who has already seen before, and Liu Hong, who knows this situation very well, still have the same face.

"Aren't you surprised?" Looking at Liu Hong, whose face was as usual, O'Connor asked suspiciously. Ordinary people will definitely change their faces if they are not frightened when they see this situation, but Liu Hong's face is too calm.

"Prepare to hide. We dumped those people, but they certainly knew that this was our destination. Without answering O'Connor, Liu Hong glanced around and frowned slightly. There are sand dunes all around, and you can't hide even if you want to!

"That's right, come with me, there's a place to hide over there!" Compared to Liu Hong's eyes, O'Connor, who had been here for a while three years ago, naturally knew where to hide.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is extremely large, and it is extremely hot during the day when there is sun, and extremely cold at night, and can even drop below 0°C. So O'Connor, who was hiding between a few rocks, had to start a campfire for fear of being noticed, and the tent couldn't be spread out here. However, there are no gaps between these rocks, and there is no fear of the wind blowing in.

But even so, some people felt cold, Evelyn. As already introduced, she's a librarian, and she's a woman. Don't expect a weak woman to endure such a cold environment!

Even though she had fished out a coat from her brother, Evelyn still felt cold, and even the campfire could not warm her body. After thinking about it, she planned to get around someone. It's just that all three of them are men except her

O'connor? PASS! Brother, this is okay, but after taking a closer look at Liu Hong's face, Evelyn got up and walked to Liu Hong's side, and said softly with a little embarrassment: "Can I keep warm next to you?" Don't get me wrong, just you're so pretty I can treat you as a woman! ”

The corners of his eyes twitched unnaturally, Liu Hong raised his right hand to untie the strap of his shirt, took it off and put it on Evelyn's body: "Wearing it, you won't feel cold." ”

Although his shirt looks very thin, it has the effect of refining runes and magic patterns, which is almost already a magic prop, and will naturally absorb the energy between heaven and earth, so not to mention hot and cold, ordinary attacks can be resisted!

Sure enough, Evelyn didn't feel cold at all after putting it on, just

"Don't you care if you give me such warm clothes? Seeing that you wear it like this during the day, you must be afraid of the cold! Don't be embarrassed to say it! I'm not embarrassed to be a girl, you still push back! ”

Reaching out to Evelyn's cheek, Liu Hong said lightly: "Do you think my hands are cold?" (To be continued.) )
