Section 59: Victory, Cracking, and Return
The time has come.
When the Demon Scorpion Emperor ushered in the thirteenth death, every reincarnation present had a touch of enlightenment in their hearts.
It's now – it's the last time.
The heroes of ancient times have been completely transformed into monsters of Anubis. The part that belonged to the human body had been completely removed from the body of the scorpion with the manifestation of divine power.
After the thirteenth death, the laser cannon fire that fell again did not work as well as before. Theoretically, as long as he didn't have an S-level bloodline, or if he opened the fourth-order gene lock, he could only rely on the blazing artillery bombardment of the hard top of the defensive strange object, and he didn't create the fourteenth killing at this moment.
It didn't die.
It dropped its halberd, a symbol of mortal martial arts, and its hands, which had also been transformed into chelicera, were transformed into chelicera—the chelicera he poked out clamped and tore at lasers that were essentially high-energy clusters, like tearing a sheet of noodles wet with water!
It's not something that anything else can do...... The laser is not physically present, and it cannot be pulled by limbs at all. Perhaps Chu Xuan's power of faith would be able to touch a similar realm after it was developed to an advanced stage. However, that would also require Chu Xuan to open the third-order gene lock, and even vaguely touch the edge of the fourth-order.
It is impossible to defeat it, reincarnators.
The only thing that can defeat it is the Spear of Judgment in the hands of the Chosen One.
The power of Osiris has been activated, and the blessings of the gods are particularly evident in Jiang Yu's cognition at this moment. As he raised the Spear of Judgment, the monster in front of him tore through the web of laser beams. He seemed to ...... No, not as if, but unequivocally heard whispers from the gods. They told him that the time had come, and they told her that if she threw the spear into the heart of the Scorpion King, he would be victorious and his enemies would die.
Now is the time.
At this very moment.
Everything in Jiang Yu's eyes gradually tended to stand still at this moment, as if he had pressed the pause button. There was nothing in his eyes but what he wanted to do.
So, just do it.
It's like ...... It was decided from the beginning!
Jiang Yu turned around reluctantly, threw the spear in his hand, and then threw it.
He didn't exert any superfluous manipulation or force on the spear - the target the spear tip was pointing at, but it exceeded the expectations of everyone present!
His goal is the Central Grand Temple!
'Boom——!
! ’
The sound is an auditory hallucination in cognition, and the moment the firelight explodes, the sound waves are actually completely too late to reach his ears. And the next moment, in the central temple that was blasted into powder, an endless white light suddenly burst out!
The light drowned everything.
The light swallows everything.
When the pure white light covered Jiang Yu's field of vision, he didn't hear the announcement of the main god who had killed his companion.
As he expected.
…………………………
Time passes.
After a long time, colors and lines appeared in Jiang Yu's eyes again—his gaze focused, and what caught him was an endless field of golden reeds, and a huge wooden sun boat sailed on the field, and one of them came to his side and stopped in front of him.
Without much hesitation, he made a light jump and landed on the deck of the wooden sailing ship. And a familiar person was quietly waiting for him in the middle of the deck.
It was Chu Xuan - Chu Xuan pushed the frame of his glasses when he saw him.
"You're doing a little better than I thought you would." Chu Xuan's voice was generally unchanged from usual. "I thought you were only going to be able to maintain a winless streak. Theoretically, you shouldn't be able to beat the last resort. ”
His words are not very straightforward, but the meaning is clear. There is only one meaning in the words, and that is 'How do you know that the heart of the Demon Scorpion Emperor is the Central Great Temple'?
Jiang Yu casually found a railing and leaned against it—and as he did, Kasumi quietly appeared beside him. Their lives and souls resonate with each other, and wherever he appears, she follows.
"It's simple, because no one told us that we need to go to the Central Temple."
The gods did not tell the reincarnation that they needed to go and guard the central temple. The gods only tell the reincarnators that the trial is about defeating the Scorpion King. It was the task of the Lord God to inform the reincarnators that they must defeat the Scorpion Emperor before the central temple was captured. But the Lord God only said, 'It cannot be conquered,' but he did not say that it could not be destroyed.
A head-on fight is obviously also a solution - killing the Demon Scorpion Emperor, who has completely become an Anubis monster, will naturally end this battlefield. However, the laser cannon array is already the strongest means of output for the reincarnators at the moment. No carbon-based creature can resist it, and when it loses its effectiveness, the reincarnators will naturally have only two mutually exclusive directions: exploding seeds and changing the means of response.
Jiang Yu really wanted to choose the former, but considering the follow-up variables, he still changed his approach.
"And, Anubis is in too much of a hurry." Jiang Yu raised a finger and pointed to the reed plain. "You asked Zhao Yingkong to bring me some information. The battlefield of Thebes is the domain of Anubis. The power of the Nine Pillars God is limited to the interior of the Great Temple, and the more we are at the last moment, the less likely it is that the Nine Pillars God will be able to convey information to us. ”
This is something that has been established before - the blessings of the gods are almost dormant after entering the pyramid of Anubis. And more importantly, there is the 'suppression mechanism' mentioned by the main god.
The power of the reincarnators is indeed suppressed by the main god. But the main god will suppress it because it needs to fit the original plot and Anubis's trial mechanic, rather than making it difficult for the reincarnator without a clue. And since the suppression of the main god has always been effective, it naturally means that the power of Anubis is entrenched in a considerable weight. And the camp between the gods is clear and clear, the Nine Pillars God and Anubis belong to two different sides in this trial gamble.
So, at the last moment, the moment the Spear of Judgment activated. What whispered beside Jiang Yu could only be the influence of Anubis.
And now...... Jiang Yu took a light breath, he clearly sensed his body and shell at this moment. The suppression of the Lord God and the trial mechanics of Anubis have been erased. He has returned to his prime, and is stronger than at every point in time.
Chu Xuan nodded, then shook it again.
"I didn't let Zhao Yingkong inform you."
"You let it." Jiang Yu waved his hand. "You've interacted with her, so you know whatever reaction she's going to have down the road. You must have known that she would come to me about these things, and since you didn't stop it, it means that you intended to do it. Or rather...... You've designed this as a branch plan? ”
Jiang Yu's gaze was skewed, and he looked at Chu Xuan's chest—there was a huge blood hole there, and a heart was beating rhythmically there. And in Chu Xuan's hand, he pinched a glowing feather.
In Egyptian mythology, the heart of the deceased was weighed on a scale. If it weighs more than a feather, it will be sent to hell. On the other hand, they can travel to the afterlife and enjoy eternal prosperity.
The task of weighing was, in mythology, the duty of Anubis. And now, the feather at the other end of the scale appeared on Chu Xuan's hand.
So...... In this current trial, what should be put on the other side of the scales to be worthy of being the corresponding weight of the soul of the trialist?
"I guess you weren't going to stay here that long in the first place. Something unexpected happened that prevented you from making it back to the battlefield in the city of Thebes. And Zhao Yingkong is the timed trigger mechanism you have prepared for it, if you don't turn back within the right time, she will bring me the information I need. And the reason why it is not said directly but needs to be hinted at in an indirect way is because the entire Theban battlefield is under the supervision of Anubis? ”
Chu Xuan pushed his glasses and looked away slightly.
"What is the situation, can you tell us about it?" Jiang Yu asked, sensing the slight pause of the big boat under his feet.
"It's Seth." And Chu Xuan did not hide it in this matter. "This trial is a gamble between Anubis and the Nine Pillars God, and it is also the promotion ceremony of Anubis. With the souls of ancient heroes at stake, if she succeeds, she will be able to escape from her awkward position under the Nine Pillars God. This leads to a more powerful rank - however, to become stronger, you need to consume food. ”
"The protection given to us by the Nine Pillars God is the food she needs for promotion."
For a deity, to reach a higher place. Either you can get extremely precious natural treasures. Either gain a higher level of powerful deity power. And although there is no shortage of treasure in this world, Anubis obviously did not touch it. So, she traded the soul of Mozius in exchange for the gods in exchange for the possibility of an ascension...... and food.
Therefore, the protection given to the reincarnation by the Nine Pillars God is a temporary protection. Because if the reincarnators are defeated, Anubis can directly take the protection from the reincarnators, which means that the reincarnators are not in a completely hostile position with her.
But Seth did it...... Among the Nine Pillar Gods, only the protection that Seth gives to the reincarnators is the protection of perpetuity. And this means that this part of the divine power that Seth gave up has become a part of the reincarnations. And even if Anubis finally wins the trial gamble, her reward will have to be taken from the corpses of the reincarnators.
Therefore, Chu Xuan, who should have returned to the present world a long time ago, would be blocked from this underworld.
"So...... We're in such trouble this time, and it's Seth's ghost again? ”
The person who spoke was Zheng Zhe - Jiang Yu turned his head and saw that this guy appeared in another direction on the deck after a momentary pause.
When he saw Jiang Yu, he complained loudly: "And Jiang Yu, you are too sudden, do you know, when you threw the spear, I was very startled!" ”
Jiang Yu originally planned to defend himself, but he finally decided to raise his hand and surrender.
"I'm sorry." "But Anubis is looking at the whole area, and I think it's better to be careful," he said. ”
"Didn't you think you'd guess wrong?" This time it was Zhan Lan, who appeared on the roof of the ship with her cheeks up. "When the spear was thrown, I thought I was going to die. You don't know how powerful the Spear of Judgment really is. ”
"I've got a good grip on it. Even if it is fried, it will only blow up the central temple. And...... I can feel it. Jiang Yu waved his hand and said the most important piece of information in the logic of his actions.
Amxie Oasis, beneath the Pyramid of Death.
The heart of darkness that is connected to the earth and the sky. And the heart that belonged to the Scorpion King, before Jiang Yu stepped into the Anubis Pyramid, had already been quietly pried away by him with a resonant technique!
The sky and the earth are a whole, and long before entering the pyramid, Jiang Yu had determined that the entire Amxie Oasis belonged to a part of the structure of the Scorpion King—it was not an independent entity, but an environment, a behemoth. And since it has turned into the trial battlefield of Anubis, the form of the heart may not be the shape of the heart in ordinary people's cognition!
Jiang Yu didn't know what it would become, but Jiang Yu could sense it.
When the Scorpion King completely turned into the monster of Anubis, the induction of the heart, in Jiang Yu's cognition, appeared on every brick and stone in the entire central temple.
The inference is correct, only the Scorpion King has completely turned into a monster of Anubis. It can be killed by the Spear of Judgment. And now, the only disagreement is where the crux of this monster is.
And Jiang Yu trusted his feelings, many evidences, and Chu Xuan's judgment. So he made a decision. And the result is ...... It was he who got to this place.
Everything is already clear and straightforward.
The temple had been shattered, the mission had not failed, and the soul of Mozius had already appeared in Chu Xuan's hands.
Chu Xuan didn't say what he had encountered during his journey to the underworld, how many powerful guards he had encountered, and how many puzzling puzzles he had solved. How many servants of Anubis fought with wits and courage. Because the end result is that he is here, with the ship of the sun at his feet, and there is no trace of half of the pursuers behind him.
So......
"So...... Where are we going? Zheng Zhe rubbed his hands, feeling the power of restoring his full heyday in his body. Everybody's all on this ship now. According to Egyptian mythology, is it going to carry us to the afterlife? Will there be anything else to fight? ”
His hands were itchy.
After the suppressed power is restored, there is always an energy to be expended.
And Chu Xuan didn't say anything, just raised his hand and pointed into the distance.
A tall jackal-headed warrior stood there—she wasn't Anubis, but she had the power of Anubis. It was also the last obstacle for the reincarnators, and before that, Chu Xuan had been blocked by it all the time, unable to return from the underworld to the real world.
Behind it was a massive portal—the door to the afterlife, and a gateway back to the present world.
So, the solar boat crashed into it.
…………………………
- [The main quest is completed, all members will get 2 B-level side plots, and the reward points will be 6000 points. 】
When the reincarnators returned to the present realm in full order, they were greeted by a ruined sight - the spear of judgment thrown by Jiang Yu was now firmly planted on the huge statue of Anubis in the center of the pyramid. The material of the statue itself immediately changed, turning into a scorpion king in the form of a scorpion.
It's dead.
Chu Xuan stretched out his hand and released the feather in his hand. It floated into the sky, accompanied by an ancient Egyptian 'thank you', and drifted off into the distance.
The ground then shook and the temple began to crumble - unlike the unplayable Seth, Anubis did not make any further moves after his defeat. And when the blessing given by the Nine Pillars God gradually dissipated, the reincarnators also returned to the original advent point.
The journey of the return of the legend of gods and ghosts is over.
Along with the light of the teleportation, the sound of the main god's settlement also echoed in the ears of the reincarnators.
