Legends are legends, not necessarily the truth.

However, since Hamna Tower has been spoken, then this city of the dead must exist.

Of course, existence is existence, as Gauss thought, is another matter.

Is the Tower of Hamna in this world just a burial ground for the pharaohs in ancient Egyptian legends, or is it a city of the dead like a mummy movie? Or is it both a pharaonic cemetery and a city of the dead, and at the same time a demon god is sealed?

If the Tower of Hamna is just a legendary pharaoh's necropolis, it is only of archaeological value and has no meaning to Gauss, but if this mysterious city can be related to a cursed mummy, or if an evil god is really sealed, then Gauss may be able to find the magical knowledge he needs wherever he goes.

It didn't matter if there was an evil god or not, what Gauss cared about was whether he could find a new source of magic.

Judging from superhero movies, even if there is an existence on the earth that he can't deal with, but equally, that kind of existence shouldn't be able to deal with him, that is, he is unlikely to encounter mortal danger on the earth.

After receiving the news of Hamnata, Gauss transferred the mirror clone in the Middle East to Huaxia and replaced him, and he rushed to Cairo, the capital of Egypt, with the mirror clone in North Africa.

The Tower of Hamna is an ancient Egyptian city, and of course it starts with Egypt.

Egypt is now also a battlefield, and because the Nazis and the Allies are at war with each other, neither side can completely expel the other, so there are now two regimes in Egypt, one in the Nazi-occupied zone and the other in the Allied-occupied zone.

Cairo is currently located in the Nazi-occupied zone, less than a hundred kilometers from the front line.

When Gauss arrives in Cairo, he transforms into a Nazi officer, and the mirror doppelganger transforms into a soldier and follows him.

The two of them found a map of Egypt in the library, studied it carefully, and decided to go their separate ways.

Egypt has an area of more than one million square kilometers, which sounds like a lot, but it is not really big for the search for Hamnata.

After all, the Tower of Hamna, known as a mysterious city, such a mysterious city, since many people can't tell where it is, it is at least certain that it is not near cities marked on maps and towns with large populations.

If you exclude such places, you will also exclude more than half of Egypt.

So, the places that really need to be explored are not that big, and nine out of ten are located in the desert.

The mirror doppelganger was in charge of the exploration, and Gauss not only gave him the dimensional bag and mage equipment, but also sent some pets for him to dispatch.

Needless to say, the dimensional bag and mage equipment, those dozens of pets, all of which are flying, not only green-winged parrots, flower-feathered parrots, golden-winged parrots, red-tailed parrots, but also mini flame bees, wise-tailed bees, white-bone bees, bats, crows, sandy petrels, brown, black and white three-color owls, feathered owls, royal eagles and other small animals.

These flying pets, Gauss singled out to mirror doppelgangers, of course, are very useful.

The mirror avatar came to the edge of the Libyan desert, released dozens of pets, and then cast a psychic vision on them one by one.

The spell of the Psychic Vision is very useful, the pets will be lined up, divided into dozens of roads, and search the ground from the air, so that not only the search line pulled out is hundreds of kilometers wide, but once discovered, the mirror doppelganger can also immediately share the vision with the pet, and discern on the spot whether the legendary Hamna Tower has been found.

Of course, the mirror doppelganger is in the center, and it is also necessary to search for it yourself.

There are two main methods of searching, one is to use flashing with psychic induction, and the other is to cast a spell to release the Eye of Kilrog, relying on the invisible Eye of Kilrog to quickly scan the scene along the way.

If it weren't for Gauss's mages, warlocks, and shamans' summoning spells, because they spanned different time and space, it was difficult to reach the summoning target, and they couldn't be cast at all.

As soon as the mirror doppelganger leaves, only Gauss is left in Cairo.

Gauss also had something to do, not only to learn Egyptian, but also to gather information and get to know the Tower of Hamna in general.

The former was easy to do, and he hired a student directly from Cairo University as a follower.

Since the legend of the Tower of Hamna involves the history of ancient Egypt, Gauss specially selected students from the history department.

All six divinities were mobilized, and within five days, Gauss had mastered the Egyptian language.

However, instead of firing the student, he followed the student to visit a teacher at Cairo University.

The teacher's name was Huni, an expert in the history of ancient Egypt and was also said to have studied the occult.

Because Huni has always been timid and afraid, the students actually look down on him.

However, Gauss is different, he likes to deal with timid people.

Led by the history student, he found Huney directly at an antiquities repair shop.

There are many cultural relics in the repair room, but they are all in tatters, and even Gauss does not see the need for repair.

This kind of place is not a place that ordinary people will not stay, and perhaps it is precisely because of this that it has become Huni's own land.

Huni is somewhat short-sighted, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses wrapped in copper, and has disheveled and unkempt hair.

When he looked away from a broken copper sheet in his hand and saw a Nazi officer coming into the room, he immediately became a little nervous, hurriedly put the broken copper sheet, and arrived in front of Gauss in a few steps: "Sir, how can I help you?"

Gauss's morality is not noble, but he also has a set of standards, and he has never bullied honest people, he saw that Huni looked flustered, obviously nothing wrong, but the look on his face, as if he had committed something, said with a pleasant face: "I have inquired, Cairo University's expert in ancient Egypt belongs to you at the highest level, and you also know some occult knowledge, so I asked you, a student, to bring me here." I do have something to do with you, but here, the occasion is not right, right?"

"Yes, it's not quite right......"

Sweat broke out on Huni's face, and he quickly let Gauss in.

Gauss took out ten marks, sent the student away, and then followed Huney into one of the offices.

In fact, the layout of the office was also disorganized, but Gauss had no intention of scheming, and as soon as he sat down, he asked Huni, "Professor Huni, how much do you know about the Tower of Hamna?"

Huni was stunned for a moment, then he was very anxious, and asked instead of answering: "What happened to Hamnata?"

"Professor Huney, since you asked, it seems that you know a lot about Hamnata. Gauss couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and already had a good premonition, "However, you don't have to worry, I mentioned Hamna Tower, not because something happened there, but because someone was eyeing that place, and I was afraid that something big would happen, so I wanted to ask you a few words." ”

Huni breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, it's good if nothing happens......"

Gauss laughed, "Can you say it now?"

Huni thought for a moment, and finally sighed and said: "Sir, although what I said may not be right, if you can prevent others from approaching the Hamna Tower, it is better to stop them, although it is the burial place of many pharaohs in ancient Egypt, and countless treasures and gold are buried, but it is indeed a real city of the dead, as the legend says......

"When you say undead, do you mean mummies?"

Huni nodded: "Yes, it's a mummy." ”

Gauss wondered: "Is the legend of mummies in ancient Egypt true?"

Yes or no, it's easy to answer, but there's a bit of mystery in that.

If it's true, it proves that magic is real.

Gauss had asked the history student before and knew that the mummies of ancient Egypt originated from a myth.

It is said that in the mythological era of ancient Egypt, Pharaoh Osiris, the son of the earth god Seb, was killed by his younger brother Seth, and his body was dismembered and thrown in various places. When her wife Isis learned of this, she retrieved the pieces of the body and buried Osiris on the spot.

Later, Horus, the widow of Osiris, grew up to defeat Seth and inherited the throne of the pharaoh of ancient Egypt. Horus dug up the pieces of his father's body, put them together and made a dried corpse called the mummy, and then, with the help of the gods, used the mummy to resurrect his father. But the resurrection of Osiris was not resurrected in the human world, but resurrected in the underworld as the king of the underworld, responsible for judging the undead and protecting the pharaohs of ancient Egypt.

When the Pharaohs learned of this, they began to declare to their people that all Pharaohs, like Osiris, were kings of the world alive and kings of the underworld after death, and that whoever rebelled against Pharaoh would suffer both life and death. To reinforce this statement, every pharaoh died by performing the myth of Osiris and mummifying himself.

The myth of the mummy involves some gods, and Gauss inquired about this, mainly to find out which evil god is sealed in Hamnata in the mouths of the witch doctors of several tribes in the Middle East, if there is really one.

Huni hesitated and said, "Osiris, Isis, and Seth are real, but the stories are all fake. ”

Gauss raised his attention: "Huney, you said that the story is false, you must know that it is true, tell it." ”

Huni nodded, but before speaking, he first told Gauss a condition: "Sir, I heard from a cemetery keeper in Hamnata about this, and I was asked at that time not to tell anyone else, so even if I say it now, I must also ask the sir, and don't tell anyone else." ”

Gauss swore and said: "Don't worry, I have always been very strict." ”

Huni seemed to believe it and said, "I hope so....."
