Chapter 56: Sealing Mana
Because of the relationship between the injured, Chen Xu and his party rested for a few more hours to deal with the injuries and recover their strength.
Jonathan, on the other hand, walked happily in the water, and from time to time caught fish and got them for the test.
I have to say that a thief like Jonathan has great eyesight and hand, and if he doesn't stretch out his hand, he will catch a fish when he stretches out his hand, but what corresponds to his eyesight and hand strength is that his cooking skills are miserable, and the fish is either burnt, undercooked, or tasteless, in short, all kinds of unbearable.
But it can't be helped, who called it all men here, there are no men with good cooking skills in this world, but among them, there are obviously no men with good cooking skills.
"Just eat it, don't think about the taste." These are what Chen Xu said later.
After resting enough, sorting out the things that should be prepared, the group set out on the journey again.
However, this time, no monkeys came to stop them, so they reached the pyramid where the Scorpion King was located without any problems.
It's a pyramid, huge and huge, and at the top of the pyramid, there's a diamond, which is roughly the size of two basketballs, according to preliminary estimates.
"This diamond is bigger than the largest diamond in the world, and if I get it, I'm going to be a rich man." Jonathan looked at the diamond, calculated in his heart, and then said, "Shall we go and get the diamond down first, and then find the treasure of the Scorpion King." ”
"This is no ordinary diamond." Chen Xu said in a deep voice.
Approaching here, he felt a sense of spiritual oppression, as if some colossus was oppressing his mind, and the source of this oppression was the diamond at the top of the pyramid.
It is impossible for an ordinary diamond to emit such a sense of oppression, so this diamond must be a treasure, and it is a very powerful treasure, stronger than any spear of judgment.
"Terry, you go in." Chen Xu pointed to those elite soldiers and gave an order.
He stopped in front of the pyramid and did not step forward, letting these elite soldiers test it.
It was a very strange feeling, he felt that there was something in it that was not good for him, but he was not sure that what was bad for him would be dangerous, and the mind did not give him a hint.
So he stopped, cautious.
The five elite soldiers walked up cautiously, watching and listening in all directions, and walked all the way, but they did not encounter any danger.
"Could it be that there is no danger in it, and what is not good for me is just dead things?" Chen Xu said secretly.
There are many such things, for example, when people are faced with sharp knives, they will instinctively feel fear, but fear is not danger, because knives are dead objects, and it cannot kill or hurt people without anyone to control them.
He suspected that it was the same, there was something in it that could pose a threat to him, but it was not inadmissible, so his mind did not feel the danger.
"There's no danger here." Confirming that there was no danger, Terry immediately reported back.
"Hmm." Chen Xu answered and walked over.
As soon as he got close to the pyramid, Chen Xu felt a strange fluctuation sweep through his heart, and for a moment, his heart trembled.
This fluctuation came and went quickly, but the oppression caused to Chen Xu was unprecedented, his face was pale, his body trembled, his legs were more like rooted, and he didn't move at all.
He doesn't know what he's facing, he doesn't know why he's afraid, but he's just afraid, he's afraid.
These emotions come suddenly, and for no reason, as if they are reversing cause and effect, and there is no cause to produce effect.
But he understands that the relationship between cause and effect can be reversed, but it cannot be completely reversed, because it is impossible to produce uncaused effects, which is the rule, the eternal rule.
Chen Xu suspected that the reason why he was afraid was because his mind felt some unpredictable danger, so he trembled, but because it was unpredictable, he couldn't know.
It's like a stone that suddenly moves, and man can't find the reason for his movement, so he classifies it as having no cause and effect, and in fact, the cause is in a place where man can't find it, not that it doesn't exist.
"What's wrong? Master. Lei Ting had been paying attention to Chen Xu, and when he saw Chen Xu's face suddenly pale, he immediately asked.
"Don't you feel it?" Chen Xu looked at the people with the same faces as usual, and understood in his heart that the feeling just now was aimed at him alone.
Still, he asked, "Do you feel anything unusual?" ”
"Nope." Thunder shook his head.
"What about you!" Chen Xu's gaze swept over everyone one by one, and everyone who was swept by him shook their heads.
"It looks like it's really targeting me alone." Chen Xu's brows furrowed even more, and after a long while, he stretched, "Let's go." ”
If you can't figure it out, put it aside for the time being, so as not to breed internal demons.
You must know that the inner demon is everywhere, and no one can completely eliminate the inner demon, even the gods, they can only abandon it.
"Let's go inside." Chen Xu took the lead and led everyone into the pyramid.
Compared to the mausoleums he had come across before, the pyramid was much cleaner, and there was not much of an eerie atmosphere in it, but rather a sense of dignified and upright.
As soon as he arrived at the mausoleum, Chen Xu felt a trace of strangeness on his hand, he looked down and saw the Death Bracelet falling from his hand and falling to the ground.
"We're here, the Scorpion King is inside, but be careful, something unusual may happen next."
In the original book, Immorton was deprived of his magic when he came here, and he didn't know if he would encounter this situation.
He is different from ordinary priests, although part of his power comes from Anubis, the god of death, but this part is only a very small part, more of it is the mana brought by his sacrifice to himself and the cultivation of the innate five elements.
Mana and magic are in harmony and transform into each other.
Everyone walked along the passage, and there were no traps along the way, and they easily reached the end.
"Inside should be the arena that Anubis of Death has prepared for us."
In front of Chen Xu are the statues of the two god of death, Anubis, and in front of the statue is the road, and at the end of the road is a vacant land, and behind the clearing, there is a throne.
This design is very similar to a place for subjects to worship the emperor, and according to the meaning of Anubis, the god of death, killing the Scorpion King is the next king of the world, and the throne is for the king of the world.
"Our opponents, wait a minute, they will also appear." Chen Xu took the first step and walked over, and as his body passed through the statue of Anubis, the god of death, a scarlet glimmer emerged from the two statues, covering Chen Xu's whole body.
He didn't panic, he just felt it carefully, and he understood that this encounter was unavoidable.
In his perception, the scarlet light drilled into his body, blocking the junction between the mind and reality, so that the magic power spewed out by the energy core could not pass through the mental interface and reach reality, and his own innate five elements** were also compressed by this red light in the dantian, and then sealed to death.
"The source of power has been sealed, but the power contained in the flesh and blood cells has not been sealed, and the sacrificial power projected from the outside world and the magic mana generated by the exchange of body and elements have not been sealed, and Anubis, the god of death, is only the core of the power that seals me."
Suddenly, Chen Xu understood, he hesitated and hesitated.
Theoretically, it would be beneficial for him to continue to wait, waiting for the power he absorbed from the outside world and replenishing the power that was sealed, but something would inevitably happen.
Thunder and the others followed behind Chen Xu and walked over, and the same scarlet light swept over them, no, to be precise, the guns in their hands.
Terry's brows furrowed when he saw this, he took the gun, pointed it into the distance, and pulled the trigger again and again, but the machine gun just didn't make a sound and sprayed bullets.
"The machine gun is useless." After testing, Terry came up with an answer that even he didn't believe.
The other four elite soldiers did the same thing as Terry, but they came up with the same results as Terry.
"There's no need to test, Anubis, the god of death, doesn't allow us to use modern firearms to fight against the Scorpion King, it's a ** contest, a fair contest." Chen Xu said.
It seems incredible to make the gun useless, but in fact, there are many ways to do it, and now the sophisticated instrument is composed of parts, and Anubis only needs to modify it in it to make the gun ineffective, and Anubis is a god, and it is not difficult for him to change the rules.
Ordinary people think that it is impossible for flames to exist in water, but for God, this is a simple thing, let alone water and fire against each other, even if it is to fuse water and fire to form water and fire, it can be done, this is to change the rules.
"It's better if you don't have a gun, I'm going to kill the Scorpion King myself and prove my martial arts." Thunder smiled horribly again.
"Be careful, everybody." Chen Xu pulled out the spear of judgment, exposed the tip of the spear, and walked cautiously on the road.
Outside, the army of Anubis, the god of death, emerged from the ground, and these armies, all of them were wolf-headed people, and they were the same as Anubis's racial form.
They are the armies of Anubis, the swords in the hands of Anubis, and the armies that Anubis used to give to mortals and sweep the world.
They are agile, they are fearless and difficult, they are not afraid of life and death, but they do not move, they are waiting, waiting for the duel of kings in the pyramid, waiting for new kings to be born in them, and then take them, sweep the world, and become the king of the world.
