Section 48: This is only the beginning

When his feet touched the ground, a familiar feeling appeared in Jiang Yu's heart.

He felt as if he had just returned to the time when he had just embarked on his second journey of reincarnation, stepping onto the Nosmo spaceship in World 2, and facing those aliens whose combat power and specifications were unknown with trepidation and anticipation.

The enemy is definitely not weak, and it has an unknown backhand and bottom.

But he is not weak.

Even if he was suppressed by the main god with a large part of his strength, he was still able to easily defeat the group of hostile soldiers in front of him. And even the powerful, theoretically speaking, scorpion king who can be compared to Hercules, at this moment, may not be his own enemy.

Probably, perhaps.

The Spear of Judgment was held in his hand, holding the shield of the Round Table forward. Several soldiers from the Theban side dodged autonomously. And the Scorpion King Army in front of him was thrown away like a worm.

Advance.

One by one, brave warriors appeared before themselves.

However, whether they are fighting alone, or in groups of three or five, or even forming formations, trying to pounce on them with a numerical advantage. They are fearless.

What about limited reinforcement?

The energy pool and constitution have been greatly decayed, and they can't even fully adapt to the armor, so what?

His own genetic lock realm is not false. And even if you don't open the genetic lock, the biological perception gathered by the vibration will clearly gather all the surrounding information into your heart.

- Six in front and three on the side.

The warriors rushed with their spears, their spears snapping under the solid surface of the shield of the Round Table. Each blow of the Spear of Judgment can bring up one or more slices of blood. Warriors who try to rush from the flanks and attack with sledgehammers and axes will not be able to break through the Terminator's armor defenses, even if they succeed.

But Jiang Yu didn't intend to let them hit.

Reinforcement being suppressed is not a bad thing. At least in this way, the energy in your body can be controlled more finely. The abundance of resources that came with foresight had made him accustomed to spending heavily in battle. Then, before this habit becomes a weakness, it is not useless to get a good taste of what it feels like to be on budget.

Move sideways, feel the subtle changes in every muscle fiber in your body.

Sensing the fineness of the ill-fitting armor on his body.

Correct them and guide them so that even at this time, they can still exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

body, panning one foot.

Several axes, which were impossible to break through the defenses, brushed through a large area of air in front of the armor.

It doesn't seem to be very difficult.

The spear in Jiang Yu's hand turned, and death was the only end for this group of attackers. He could clearly perceive that in addition to the front and side, there were also warriors behind him who were waving weapons attacking him. However, they don't need to care about it at all.

Because Kasumi dealt with them.

Kasumi was like a shadow, quietly following behind her. After being given the duty of long-range shelling and spellcasting, she became reticent...... No, it's not that she's become reticent, it's that she's spending too much time on research and development. And Kasumi ...... Never got close to anyone other than myself.

- Kasumi is happy, now.

Jiang Yu thought. His third-order genetic lock was able to help her clearly recognise Kasumi's excited heart - in this strengthened suppression of the main god, only Kasumi's power was the weakest. Because her qigong was only converted to C-grade, and B-grade qigong, which was ten times that of basic C, came from the cooperation between herself and her dual cultivation.

Now, Xia's combat power in the Zhongzhou team may be ranked fourth...... Or even the third.

Instead of hiding far away, use artillery and spells to support yourself. Fighting side by side with himself is definitely more in line with Kasumi's inner wishes.

- I should have spent more time with her.

Jiang Yu exhaled softly, feeling Xia's heartbeat, Xia's pace—she and his body and mind were always in sync. As he advances, she must follow with precision.

The Scorpion King is not far ahead. As in the first part of the movie, several brave Theban warriors have fallen under the warrior's sword and shield—he has a clear eye on Jiang Yu, just as Jiang Yu is also looking at him directly.

- Magnetic field rotation, 4,600 horses.

The biggest advantage of magnetic field rotation is that it can provide strength and speed far beyond level-level enhancements at low levels. Even if Jiang Yu can't even do the first day, his explosive speed has still reached the critical point of subsonic.

A slash.

The scorpion king's throat burst with blood.

Jiang Yu was very sure that he had not exerted enough lethal power in the blow just now. Of course, he knew that he could kill the Scorpion King in front of him with a single blow, but he didn't want to do it right away.

But the Scorpion King is still dead.

When he fails, he dies – even five thousand years ago, and he didn't die immediately when he failed.

The burly body fell to the ground. The flow of the breath of life is swift and unstoppable.

And before this ancient warrior died, he said a sentence that was almost like a proverb in the legendary worldview of gods and ghosts.

"Death is just the beginning."

He swallowed.

His men did not panic and fled, and their morale did not collapse because of the death of the monarch.

They just fight, constantly fighting. Until the defenders of Thebes, who were already stronger than them, slaughtered them all.

The battle is over.

The sub-lines given by the Lord God, the trials shaped by the gods, do not end there.

The sun in the sky gradually shifted, and the dead that fell to the ground gradually fogped in the sunlight. Disintegrated into large expanses of black smoke, drifting in all directions beyond the reach of the reincarnations.

……………………

Chu Xuan walked into the Central Shrine - along the way, no one had ever hindered him. He had some small but complicated interactions with the city's inhabitants. The result of the interaction was to verify part of his conjecture.

This is not the past, not 5,000 years ago. This world has a fixed height of the sky, a fixed depth of the earth, and a fixed distant border. The reincarnators have no way to leave, let alone the strength to support from outside the battlefield of Thebes.

It's not real, people are living creatures, they can breathe, they can talk, they can sing and dance, but they can't think. They just follow fixed rules and do fixed things. Even if their companions die in front of them, their actions will not exceed the expectations of the reincarnators.

It's not an illusion here – the touch, the rule constants, and even the blessings of the gods are still there. The physical order still exists, and running a theoretically unsolvable equation will not overload the world with crash - there is no doubt that this is a half-plane, a separate space, a wilderness of trials where rules and order are all built on the will of Anubis.

"Death is just the beginning." Chu Xuan gently pushed his glasses, even if he was not on the front line. When the Scorpion King died, the same words appeared in his throat at the same time.

"This is the realm of Anubis, and the power of Anubis will be manifested in the form of death."

His footsteps echoed through the temple, and his eyes wandered inside the temple - there were no secret treasures or traps in the main quest for the great temple that the reincarnators needed to guard, and there were no girls or teenagers who behaved abnormally.

There are only nine things in the temple.

That is the nine idols, each of which belongs to the nine-pillared deity of the Egyptian mythological system. Sun, wind, rain, earth, sky, death, life, Hades, storms. The nine deities quietly occupy nine different positions. The only thing missing is Anubis, who should be the local host.

Anubis is not here.

The reincarnators are required to hold this place.

So, does this mean that the ultimate goal of the Scorpion King will also be to capture this place?

Chu Xuan pushed his glasses, at this moment, he may have seen through everything that was represented and hidden here. And the only thing that is lacking is just a solution to break the game.

"Li Shuaixi." He spoke suddenly, not through the communication channel, but directly asked, "Do you hate me?" ”

Li Shuaixi, who had been following him silently, stiffened for a moment.

Far away, Zhan Lan and Zhao Yingkong, their ears quietly pricked up.

"Nothing." After a moment of stiffness, Li Shuaixi shook his head vigorously. "You have given me strength, you have given me shelter, you have taken care of me in many places, you have helped me. I ...... to you Only gratitude. ”

"But I have never given you dignity." Chu Xuan's voice was still calm. "It's not that I'm incapable of understanding the feelings of experimental animals. I also know that you don't expect to be a mere bodyguard, but have your own ideas and desires. You rightly hate me, and it doesn't conflict with your gratitude. ”

“…… Nothing. Li Shuaixi's answer did not change.

"Dignity needs to be done by oneself to get it, and shame needs to be done by oneself to be washed away." Chu Xuan's voice was unhurried.

However, the content of it is like thunder.

"You have a chance now to kill me."

Zhan Lan's eyes widened and she subconsciously covered her mouth.

"And you don't have to worry about being liquidated afterwards. Others will understand and forgive the behavior. And that's the promise and judgment I can give. ”

Silence – Silence lasts for a long period of seconds.

Chu Xuan, who had been suppressed and strengthened, was indeed as vulnerable as an ordinary person at this moment. Maybe with just one click, he can break his neck.

Li Shuaixi's fingers trembled.

He seemed to want to do something, to say something. But in the end, he did nothing.

He just lowered his head, as usual, standing behind Chu Xuan, like a shadow.

He passed up the opportunity.

"Gee, what are you doing so fast?" Zhan Lan finally couldn't help but bubble, interrupting the silence and silence. "Did you guys just talk about something? There seems to be nothing in this place. ”

Li Shuaixi remained silent.

And Chu Xuan just gently pushed his glasses.

"Just an immature conjecture." His tone, as always, has not changed in any way. "Don't worry, it's not anything of value."

"Uh...... Elaborate? "Zhan Lan, looking like a curious baby. Zhang Jie was still fishing outside the temple, and Zhao Yingkong also walked quietly behind her.

"It's better not to say it." Chu Xuan's gaze was cast into the distance beyond the temple. "If you say it, the consequences will be severe...... If it's so serious that this reincarnation team may not be able to bear it. ”

"Even if death is just the beginning."

Just the beginning.

When the first day is over and the sun is shining down on the second day. The Scorpion King and his army appeared again in the outer wilderness of the city of Thebes.

Up to the Scorpion King himself, down to the ordinary soldiers. Everyone's combat effectiveness was twice as strong as the day before.
