Chapter 501: The Ancient Curse
"Strange ......"
Before Andy finished speaking, the entire waterhole suddenly boiled, and the pool water kept churning, and suddenly dozens of black hands stretched out from it, but it was the palm formed by the soul wrapped in black water, pulling the wooden plank into it.
Countless faces of twisted fear appeared on the calm black water, and they tried to get out of the black water, but they were tightly restrained.
Countless undead stretched out their hands and wanted to catch Andy and the others inside, so one arm after another appeared on the black water, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.
Charles's face was shocked, and he walked away from the pool, and the struggling and twisted souls kept wailing, as if they were cursing him, cursing that he would be trapped here for eternity and eternity, just like them.
"Get away from there, and if you're pulled in, never think of coming out. ”
Olivia said coldly, glancing at Andy reproachfully, as if blaming him for not throwing the plank into the pool.
"Do you know that black liquid?"
Andy walked over to Olivia, and Margaret came over, who was also interested in the liquid.
"I don't know, but I can guess that it's the River of the Dead mentioned in the curse of the Pharaoh's crown...... Maybe it's something from the world of the dead, otherwise, it would be impossible to bind a hundred thousand souls. ”
Andy and Margaret didn't speak again, they glanced at Olivia, their eyes a little worried.
The curse says......
Whoever touches the crown of the pharaoh will drink from the river of the dead......
Olivia didn't pay attention to Andy's gaze, she walked over to the idol of Anubis and crouched down.
The statue of Anubis is on a stone platform that is half a man high, while the idol of Anubis is several meters high, with the top of his head connected to the roof of the tomb.
As for the ceiling, there are a large number of sacrificial pictures carved on it, and there are many ancient Ekiven, which looks a little mysterious.
"Didn't Tutankhamun believe in Osiris, and why did he have an idol of Anubis in his tomb?"
Olivia had apparently noticed this, and had been observing the idol.
The stone platform at Anubis's feet was carved with ancient Ekivin, and Olivia struggled to make out it, and as more and more words were recognized, Olivia's expression became subtle.
"What's wrong?"
Andy couldn't read the words, but he could see some clues from the change in Olivia's face.
Olivia reached out and pointed to a line of text, reading in a low voice.
"Death is just the beginning ......"
"He will return...... When he returned, all things bowed down and bowed. ”
"He stretched out his hand to the heavens, and the world ...... and shrouded in darkness......"
Call~
Perhaps it was this sentence that touched some kind of ancient taboo, and a nameless wind blew from the tomb, and the torches burning on both sides were almost extinguished.
The burial chamber became dark and trance-like, and the souls of the dead in the pools on either side became even more excited, and the black water boiled and almost rushed out of the pool.
Olivia stood up, her expression a little solemn.
"Anubis had a coffin at his feet, buried at the feet of the Grim Reaper, either by illustrious birth or with the worst of his sins...... Tutankhamun had betrayed and provoked the gods, and he was the pharaoh of the Eki Empire, and I think the coffin at Anubis's feet was his!"
"You have seen the curse on the stone platform...... Shall we open it?"
Andy fell silent, he looked at the words on the stone platform, and in a trance, those words turned into smiling demons and pounced on him.
Andy woke up suddenly, only to feel that his mind was in a trance, and a layer of cold sweat had appeared on his forehead.
"Tutankhamun longed for resurrection, so he pinned his hopes on Osiris, the god of the underworld, so he created the golden mask, but Osiris's power was stolen by Anubis......"
There was another strange wind blowing in the tomb, and Andy waved his hand, signaling Olivia to stop talking.
"It's probably not a good idea to discuss this at its feet. ”
"Maybe you're right, Nie, but you should know what I mean, after all, it is the child of Osiris, known as the god of death, the guardian of the undead, so Tutankhamun chose to be buried at its feet, and once the golden mask is taken away, he will be resurrected and the ancient curse will be fulfilled. ”
Olivia's eyes flashed, and she looked a little eager to try.
"Without the golden mask with the divinity of Osiris, the power of Anubis would be completely enveloped here, and Tutankhamun had prepared so many soul sacrifices, plus an ancient curse...... He will surely succeed in resurrection. ”
Olivia looked at Andy, not knowing what choice he would make.
"I finally know why Uncle Howling Wind said that to me before leaving. ”
Andy thought about it and suddenly laughed.
"What did you say?"
Margaret asked, looking back, smiling, as if she knew what choice Andy would make.
"We are pirates...... The ocean is our destination, and our destiny is to struggle and enjoy at sea until it slowly decays...... As for what will become of the empire on the mainland, what do we have to do with it? We are the object of the empire's want!"
Andy laughed, his eyes glinting.
"Even if Tutankhamun is resurrected, he will compete with the current Pharaoh of the Eki Empire for the position of Pharaoh, even if he succeeds, if he wants to conquer the whole world, he will first attack the Holy Roma Empire, what does it have to do with our pirates?"
"Maybe we can take advantage of the chaos to grab a deal!"
Charles echoed on the side, and Margaret also squinted and smiled, the Flying Eagle Empire and the Eki Empire were far away on land, and even they couldn't hit there, so she wasn't worried.
As for Olivia......
The civilization of the Gypsies was destroyed by the Holy Roma Empire, and she naturally did not worry about the safety of the Holy Roma Empire.
"So ......"
"So what are we waiting for? dig up that guy's coffin!"
"Hahaha!"
So, after a brief discussion, Andy and the four decided to dig up Tutankhamun's coffin regardless of the ancient curse!
"Tutankhamun's coffin is at Anubis's feet, but how is this stone platform opened? Damn, how the hell did they put it in!"
Andy tries to move the platform, but finds that the other part of the platform is buried deep in the earth and cannot be moved at all, and the statue of Anubis on the platform reaches the roof of the shed, which also makes it impossible to take out the platform.
"No, Tutankhamun's coffin is supposed to be upright, so it should be in Anubis's body, and this is also some kind of ritual, and lying down means eternal sleep. ”
