Chapter 142: The City of the Dead

Three days later, the passenger ship where the dream team was located arrived safely at its destination, as for whether the boat of the protagonist of the plot had a shooting, explosion, and attack by the black-clothed pharaoh guards, Lin Meng could not know.

Knowing that his party would arrive at least half a day faster than the protagonist, Lin Meng immediately took the people around him to full speed and went to the oasis closest to the Hamna Tower.

In the desert, water is of the essence, and because of the abundant groundwater, this oasis is so prosperous that it has even developed into a small trading market. Everywhere there were people wearing robes and headscarves, and of course women who wore veils to cover their faces and embraced Islam.

"By the way, why don't I buy a veil for Lu!"

Under the hot sun, Lin Meng, who fell into a weak state again, had an idea, bought a set of robes worn by women, with a face covering, and dressed up as an Islamic woman, which was really much more comfortable.

Zhao Xin, who has never smiled and has the expression of a dead man at home, saw Lin Meng, and the muscles on his face jumped obviously.

"What's wrong?" Lin Meng asked.

Zhao Xin didn't speak, and pointed to Ye Ying on the other side, except for the color of their eyes, the two of them looked almost no different......

"Why does he wear women's clothes?" Soldier Robben asked suspiciously.

"I don't know what the nobles think, we commoners will never understand, and he is not an ordinary nobleman, but a damned English nobleman." Archaeologist Manda shrugged his shoulders and kicked the black man next to him, ", go buy what you need to cross the desert, camels, water, food!" ”

"You two with me. I can't hold that much on my own. ”

Black Tam pouted disapprovingly at the name "". Grabbed the two of them, and after some bargaining, they quickly bought six camels. The means of transportation in the desert is, of course, camels, which can starve, go days without water, and gallop at a speed that does not even get off the horse.

"Now that the sun is poisonous, should we wait until the night to hit the road?" Ye Ying asked with concern.

"Nope. We left the protagonists of the plot behind, and we must have left all the people of the Emerald team behind, and we must further distance ourselves. It is best to arrive at Hamnata a day earlier than them. Lin Meng saw three assistants, one leading two groups of camels, and hurriedly greeted them.

After eating a little at the bazaar, the group barely lost much time. Just set out on the road to the Hamna Tower.

As the legendary city of Hamna Tower. It has long been a forgotten ruin, and it will take a lot of time to get there even from the nearest oasis!

Every day I rode on a camel, ate dry food when I was hungry, drank water when I was thirsty, and slept on the camel. The surrounding scenery is the same, either yellow rocks or yellow sand dunes. At first glance, the endless golden color is attractive. But seeing too much makes people feel tired, and there is a kind of panic in the heart, caused by monotony and expansiveness.

If he could completely isolate himself from the sun, then he would not be wearing a robe but an artifact, Lin Meng was extremely weak from the sun during the day, and quickly recovered his physical strength and magic under the moonlight at night, such an encounter made him very distressed.

After four days of walking in the desert, which is the 10 days limited to the main quest, and seven days have passed, Tamu, a black man who is the guide, stops the camel.

"Your Excellency Baron, the destination ...... Hamnata, the capital of the dead, is about to appear......" Tamu pressed his hand to his chest and bowed in respect, his voice heavy as he said this, clearly remembering what had happened to him last time.

"Hamnata, are you sure?" The archaeologist wondered, "In my eyes, there seems to be nothing but sand dunes in the distance, are you misremembering the location?" ”

"Can't be wrong, how could I forget this place!"

The black man Tam was visibly agitated and roared, "This is it, this cursed place!" On that occasion, because of the clue to the Hamna Tower, our officers were filled with yearning and longing for the place where the infinite treasures of Seti I, the richest of the Egyptian emperors, were buried. ”

"However, after all the hard work to find the Hamna Tower, I was the only one who escaped from the 127 soldiers who entered the ruins, those cold-blooded men in black, and the supernatural and unexplained events that appeared from time to time."

The black man squirmed his thick lips and sighed, "We're here, waiting until dawn." ”

As time passed, the golden sun gradually rose from the distant horizon, like a miracle, a solemn ancient stone city, or ruins, in a flowing ripple of light and shadow, appeared in the distance of everyone's sight.

"This ...... This is the power of the gods! ”

Robben immediately got off the camel, went down to the ground, knelt down, picked up a golden statue ornament hanging from his chest, and put it in front of him to worship.

This gold-painted kobold statue can't of course be the Desert Grim Reaper in League of Legends, but the son of Seth, the god of evil, and Nephtis, the patron god of the dead, in Egyptian mythology, the god of the underworld and the dead, that is, the god of death: Anubis.

It is also the legendary patron saint of Hamnata, the capital of the dead!

For the Egyptians, life and death were equally important, and they believed that after death, the soul would still exist and would go to the temple of the dead, and the guide was Anubis.

Anubis taught the Egyptians to mummify, and to guide and guard the spirits of the dead, which had the head of a jackal, or what could be seen as a black dog. In the second part of the mummy, the Scorpion Emperor prayed to Anubis when he was on the verge of death in the desert.

In this way, he saw the great miracle shown by the god of death, and obtained the kobold army that defeated the army of the pharaohs, and finally became the half-human and half-scorpion king under the magic of death!

The sun that had just risen was not strong yet, and Lin Meng barely looked at the sun, his eyes becoming awe-inspiring.

In the ruins far away, on a rocky hill, a row of men dressed in black and riding horses were staring coldly in their direction.

"Pharaoh guards? These should be considered decent NPCs in the movie, but perhaps, they will affect our actions. ”

Lin Meng frowned, if possible, he didn't want to provoke the descendants of the Pharaoh's guards. Seeing the men in black disappear, he beckoned a few people around him and rode a camel towards the ruins that appeared in the morning sun, Hamtana, the capital of the dead......

The moment he stepped into the ruins, Lin Meng heard a hint from the brand: "The dream team has completed the main quest one, and the main quest second will be released below, which is also the last task in this world, to send the fully resurrected high priest Immorton back to the underworld." ”

"Mission time: 50 days."

"Wouldn't we, really, let us kill Immorton's mighty mana? Or is it fully resurrected? ”

Lin Meng's heart was a little shocked, Immorton's body could turn into dust, almost immune to physical attacks, and could be seen as a sand version of the Terminator T-1000. His mana is many times stronger than Dracula, who has been in love for four hundred years, and the most excessive thing is that he has an immortal body!

Immorton is afraid of cats, because cats are the guardians of the Egyptian underworld, and they are the nemesis of all Egyptian undead before they are resurrected, and this weakness will not be there after a full resurrection.

"It seems that the Golden Sutra of the Sun must be found in order to be able to kill Immorton."

Since they entered the capital of the dead first, the dream team had a complete advantage in finding treasures, and secretly recalled in his heart the location of the Sun Golden Sutra in the movie, Lin Meng calmed down and looked at this ancient and solemn ruins.

At this time, on the desert about a day's journey from the capital of the dead, the Emerald team, which was also riding a camel, simply exploded, because of their brand, there was a hint of "Team Battle Opponent Dream Team has entered the Tower of Hamna and completed the main quest one." ”

"Damn ......"

The strong white man, who was under the camel and seemed to be trembling when he walked, and his muscles were bulging, scolded viciously, and turned his head to look at the little girl: "Haven't you been monitoring the protagonist and those Americans?" ”

"It's none of Xiaomei's business, it should be that the Dream Team found some clues, or maps, or guides, and left the plot characters to go to Hamtana ......" Jade said calmly.

The white young man said angrily, "Then they can get the Black Scripture of the Undead first!" ”

"We're one step behind, but since they're not here, there's no need for us to distance ourselves from the protagonists of the plot, let's go and get closer to those people."

Emerald didn't seem to be annoyed at all by the Dream Team's entry into the City of the Dead, and said with a smile: "It may not be a good thing for the other party to enter first, it is possible that they will dig up the mummy of Immorton and the Black Book of the Undead first, but don't forget the key to open the coffin and the scripture book, in the hands of the heroine's brothers and sisters." ”

"Let's just get the key! That's the most important thing! Besides, Immorton's resurrection will kill the person who opened the chest containing the Black Sutra of the Undead as a sacrifice, so let them solve that trouble. ”

"O'Connor, Eve, and even Jonathan, these people have luck similar to the aura of the protagonist, many of the fatal moments in the movie survived by accident, and being able to win over these people will definitely help the next exploration and battle."

The Tower of Hamna, the capital of the dead, is full of ancient ruins, tall stone walls, and broken statues, making people feel that in ancient times, this must be an incomparably prosperous city!

Stopping at the foot of a huge statue of the Grim Reaper, archaeologist Manda pointed: "This is Anubis, the statue of the Grim Reaper, the legs of the Grim Reaper go deep into the ground, and legend has it that there is a secret compartment inside the legs of the idol of the god, which houses the Golden Sutra of the Sun." ”

From the fact that he casually said this news, it can be seen that this archaeologist does not really believe in that legend.

Manda recounted the history and led the other two to find some old mirrors around and collect them. Ye Ying and Zhao Xin were also helping on the side, and as for Lin Meng, he had already hidden in a place where the sun couldn't shine.

After a busy day, Manda successfully found the entrance to the underground palace of the ruins of the capital of the dead, and everyone entered through a gap to the gloomy underground. (To be continued......)
