Section 8: Next Steps
Jonathan, Evelyn's older brother. Idle, unlearned, unskilled representatives.
At the same time, it is also a comedic character used to adjust the horror atmosphere in the first two works of The Mummy, and in a sense, it can also be regarded as the hidden protagonist of the Mummy series.
After all, in the plot setting, basically the main clues of each part are made up by him. The Spear of Judgment, the Shangri-La Key, also left information on his trip to Peru after the end of the third part. And there is reason to believe that if it weren't for the third part of the bad movie, the main character who connected the clues of the fourth part would have to be him.
If there's a theme around the mummy's worldview, then this guy must have a 'clue provider' label on his head.
And as Chu Xuan said, the main god will not put the reincarnation in an area that is too far away from the plot clues. Since the main god has sent the reincarnators of the Middle-earth team to Cairo, it naturally means that Cairo has a corresponding channel for obtaining information...... And it also has a certain degree of stability, which can be said to be extremely strong.
Very good.
Zhan Lan located him—and his location was in the original museum...... Inside a small building on the side. It is foreseeable that when the Inzhou team set a trap in Cairo, they must have carried out a comprehensive sweep of the plot personnel in the city. Xue Nai, a spiritual power, is not a careless character. But maybe it's dark under the lights, maybe it's all kinds of coincidences. In short, this goods was not discovered by the Inzhou team, and was also trapped by a group of living dead, as long as the Central Continent team got out of trouble, they would definitely find time to explore the location around the museum!
So, of course, when Zhan Lan's spiritual power scanned across the surrounding blocks of the area where the museum was located. It didn't take much effort for the glasses girl to find him.
…………………………
"Uh...... Am I getting caught up in something terrible? ”
When Jiang Yu and Zheng Zhe casually threw away the living dead who were in the way in front of them, tore through the door of Jonathan's bunker and stepped on the rat trap that he used to replace the tripping thunder, it was simply a rat trap for jokers. The guy in the white suit immediately raised his hands in the air, like the French during World War II, and used etiquette to show his kindness and friendliness.
"You've happened, Jonathan." The dark gold armor on Jiang Yu's body was wrapped with thunder light. Warhammers with no force field activated are filled with blood. "You hastily unleashed an ancient evil, and now it has destroyed a city. It's time to confess your sins and then pay for them. ”
"It's none of my business!" The guy was scared to pee on the spot. "I ...... I just resold a few mummies. Those things are sold everywhere on the black market! ”
He said as he cautiously approached the location of the window.
Then, Zheng Zha casually waved the tomahawk.
'Peng-'
The windows are gone.
The walls are also gone.
Beyond the walls, the wandering, less aggressive, Egyptian living dead, who looked like zombies in need of meat, let out a low roar.
Jonathan's legs trembled—and soon his whole body was shaking. His face turned pale and green, until his eyes suddenly lit up.
"I confess!" He raised his hand a little higher. "I have a younger sister who is the best expert on ancient Egypt here. She hooked up with a strange guy not too long ago. Then a strange man found them and invited them to be their guests - it must have been the work of those two men! They lied to my sister! ”
Good, done.
Despite the sibling relationship, this guy has always been very comedic - obviously, he will probably give Middle-earth some bizarre false information and find a way to contact Evelyn and O'Connor to save him. But well......
This kind of thing should be handled by professionals.
Chu Xuan's figure appeared behind the door, and Li Shuaixi followed him inseparably behind him. He held a golden apple in his hand and transformed into a scepter in front of Jonathan.
The literary quality is polite, there is no killing intent, and he is still a normal person. However, the moment Jonathan saw him, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. It seems that the comedy character also has a strong intuition, and his subconscious will tell him who can be fooled, and who can only wait for his birthday in the underworld next year after fooling!
"Looks like there's a lot to say between us, Mr. Jonathan." Chu Xuan pushed his glasses. "About Ling's sister, about those two men. Don't worry, we are a regular organization and will not do anything to you...... Bad thing. However, I hope you can save you and me time from now on. ”
Poor Mr. Jonathan, trembling like a frozen quail at this moment. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, sat down obediently, and looked at the eyes of Jiang Yu and Zheng Zha, even with some expectations.
He might have preferred to be in the same room with the two of them.
Unfortunately, the two are not interested in staying in a house with a comedic character who is obviously going to run a train with a mouthful of words.
……………………
The two left the small building.
The rest of the Middle-earth team was cleaning up the museum—there wasn't much heavy stuff to do, but Zhan Lan had scanned out a lot of bombs and mines buried inside. The museum master of the original work, which has a lot of plots, is missing, but there may be some clues in it that can have some effect on the Middle-earth team.
It's a delicate job, so it's Kasumi and the volunteering Zhao Yingkong who do it - unlike the original book, this assassin girl is quite active in the current Nakasu team. Maybe it's the goal, or maybe it's the motivation.
They have thin hands, so they do it. And the rest of the people cooperated and made a move.
The two heavily armed warriors, who were destined to be clumsy, were useless at this moment. So all Jiang Yu and Zheng Zha could do was to expel the large group of living dead people outside who were already very aggressive.
Expel, not kill.
In the previous process of opening the way, the two of them had only thrown the living dead away, rather than running over them.
"They may not be dead yet." Zheng Qi said suddenly, and there was a slight sentimentality in his words. As he spoke, he threw a living dead man into the distance.
"It's a possibility." Jiang Yu nodded, and used the force field of the storm shield to expel a large area of the living dead. "At the end of the first episode, Immorton's entire body mana was taken away by the Golden Sutra of the Sun. And since his mana has been erased, the impact of his spells will probably be eliminated along with it...... It's like the disappearance of the Pyramid of Death and the Oasis. ”
"Hmm." Zheng Zhe nodded.
He didn't say much, but devoted more energy to the work of expelling the living dead. Soon, the group of creatures that looked like they were not much different from ordinary people, but they were like zombies when they moved and shouted, and they were driven to the outer block of the museum. When they lose their attack, they don't want to gnaw on them like zombies. Rather, they are being banished to other areas, where they move slowly and irregularly like literal walking corpses.
An open space was cleared.
Jiang Yu exerted force under his feet and jumped to the top of a tall building. His gaze looked into the distance, the area that had been directly hit by British bombers and spell fires, the burning fire was being surrounded by the wind, and it was closing towards the center.
Cheng Xiao wasn't here to help - so Cheng Xiao was there.
Wind fuels fire, when there is no qualified water system capable person to assist. If you want to use the ability of the wind attribute to extinguish such a large fire, it is not an easy operation to achieve.
"Unfortunately, we can't help with this kind of thing." Zheng Zhe also jumped up and sat on the other side of the building. He looked into the distance, at the whole city, which was too noisy and too silent.
The noise is because everywhere is the howl of the living dead, and the silence is because apart from the howl of the living dead, only fire burns.
"We're just going to fight, we're just going to turn city after city into what we're looking like. Innocent people die in large swaths of people, or become pitiful people who don't know whether they live or die. ”
Many people died in Cairo, because the only people who were turned into the living dead were those of Egyptian ancestry, or who were of special interest to Immorton. And the Gentiles, who had no Egyptian ancestry, were now all the souls of the living dead.
Jonathan is a survivor, but there shouldn't be any luckier people besides Jonathan.
"It's not something we do." Jiang Yu looked at the city and took off his helmet. The smoke and blood in the air were a little choking, but he knew that after many bloody battles, he was no longer an unbearable Wuxia Ameng.
"I know." Zheng Zhe nodded. "However, there is a good chance that we will do something similar in the future."
Ambush the hostile reincarnation squad and ambush the strong in the plot. In times of emergency, anything can happen.
"This is the main god space, and we haven't received an A rank yet...... Even BB-level group feeders. It's not an easy task to live, let alone live in style. Jiang Yu replied, he knew that there were strong people in the reincarnation team. And if the next world is still the Grim Reaper, even if the third-order genetic lock is unlocked and the A-level enhancement is exchanged, it will have to hover between life and death.
"I know." Zheng Zhe nodded heavily, then lifted up. "I just hope that in the future if there is a choice. Try to avoid doing this. ”
"Only the strong have a choice." Jiang Yu got up. "The weak only deserve to be chosen. And now, we are not strong enough. ”
"That's right." Zheng Zhe also stood up, and he took a deep breath of dirty air. "Jiang Yu, I am honored to fight alongside you. Next, I'll try harder. ”
"Me too."
In the distance, the fire gradually subsided and went out. Cheng Xiao practiced his own philosophy through his own hands.
It's better than these two, and it will only be sad on the rooftop.
And at the same time, Chu Xuan came with news.
Evelyn and O'Connor's locations have been confirmed, and there are some surprises that come with it.
