Chapter 107: Immorton
Seeing that the yellow gas began to be released from the gas tank, Han Ji slammed the gas tank in his hand under his feet, and then squatted down with Alvin and Levi facing the foot of the city wall.
Behind the three of them, there is a mobile wall of the field and a creaking gas tank, and the gas released by the gas tank takes on a spherical shape, surrounding the three of them.
The so-called "insecticide" is not a drug used to control agricultural pests and urban health pests, but is actually a spores extracted from biochemical plants43 that have a parasitic and killing effect on organisms.
After being released, they can remain in the aerosol for a period of time, and any organism that touches it will be parasitized by spores and grow plant rhizomes in the body.
However, "pesticides" have a limited time of action, and when the aerosols that carry them disappear, the spores will become inactive, and the roots of the parasitic plants will also dry up and die quickly due to the knockout of the reproductive fragments in the genes.
The cloaks on the three Elwin can isolate the inside and outside and rely on internal circulation to provide the user with breathing, and the gas masks they wear are just to add a layer of security. Except for Alwin, who has not been strengthened by the virus, the other two are not afraid of insecticide spores.
Now the spherical air shield formed by the "insecticide" has become the strongest defense line of the three Elwin.
When the locusts first came into contact with the yellow mist, they slammed into the sand like kingfishers fishing.
Only a handful of them freefell forward by inertia for some distance, and then crashed headfirst into the arcing maneuver wall, turning into a charred mass of protein.
The locust plague was the first plague brought about by Immorton's resurrection.
It was originally recorded in the book of Exodus that God sent a calamity to Egypt and persuaded Pharaoh to return freedom to the Israelites, but it was shown by the resurrection of the high priest of Egypt.
Could it be that Immorton is an Israeli Jew?
The locusts in the sky were just a trivial trouble for the three Elvins, who had been prepared for a long time.
But for others in the camp who had just fallen asleep, it was not so pleasant.
As soon as they fell asleep, they felt pain all over their bodies, as if something was eating them.
When I opened my eyes, I found that my body was crawling with locusts, and these locusts no longer ate plants, but ate the flesh and blood of their people.
The bodies of those who had died in the firefight had been eaten clean by the locusts, and the white skeletons only needed to be degreased in a hot pan to become a new specimen.
O'Connor was also awakened by the bite, and he rested by the fire, and the flames frightened the locusts, so that O'Connor had few locusts on his body, so that he had time to flee for his life.
Benny reacted faster than O'Connor, and like an arrow from a string, he crossed the fire pit to force the locusts behind him, and with a few more taps on the sand, he ran towards the ruins in the distance.
This familiar scene reminded O'Connor of the previous scene when Benny left him to dodge the attacks of the Pharaoh's guards, and then looked at the direction Benny was heading. It was clearly the stone gate passage that locked him out of the ruins in the first place.
"Benny! Wait for me!"
O'Connor flapped the locusts on his body and chased after Benny.
Seeing Benny rushing into the stone door, the whole person leaned against the stone door, using all his strength to suck the milk, trying to close the door.
"Gold!"
O'Connor shouted out the strongest bargaining chip against Benny, and Benny, who forgot everything, could leave a way for him to survive for the sake of gold.
Sure enough, after hearing Gold's name, Benny hesitated, and then immediately made a choice.
Benny left O'Connor with a crack in the door, and anxiously shouted at him, "Hurry!"
O'Connor pounced on it, slamming it on the stone brick floor, and Benny closed the stone door at the same time, and the dull sound of locusts hitting the stone door behind the door came from behind.
"I saved you once! You've got to give a big baby!"
O'Connor rolled over, spitting the sand out of his mouth, and wiped a golden staff from his backpack with his back to the sky and tossed it to Benny.
Receiving the golden scepter, Benny's face became flattering, and he carefully placed the golden scepter, and then took off his coat for O'Connor to kill the locusts on his body.
But Benny's coat, which had been crawling in the desert for half a month, was picked up by Benny's hands and thrown on O'Connor's body, giving him a kind of pain of being whipped.
"That's it! All right! I said enough!"
O'Connor held Benny's clothes with both hands, rolling in the sand and crushing the locusts with his body weight.
O'Connor, who had risen from the ground, tilted his head to the side, and listened with his ears to the sound of ropes in the distance.
O'Connor looked in the direction of the sound, and a black beetle swooped down on them like a tidal wave.
O'Connor stood still, confused, and asked, "What is that?"
Benny certainly couldn't answer him, because all that was left was O'Connor's back.
O'Connor could only follow Benny closely, and he didn't carry the torch for the light of the fire, so he could only follow the fire in Benny's hand and find a way to escape.
After turning a corner, Benny's torch disappeared from O'Connor's sight.
Fortunately, the terrifying insect tide behind him also disappeared, and O'Connor was able to relax for a while.
O'Connor could only draw the pistol he had with him, carefully guarding his surroundings.
"Benny!"
O'Connor called Benny's name as he groped his way through the darkness.
As O'Connor went deeper, O'Connor's fear grew. It's as if some fateful enemy is waiting for him.
Brushing aside the hammer from his pistol, O'Connor temporarily halted his progress. He felt something unusual.
The tunnel was buried deep underground, and there would be no wind, but O'Connor's sweat after running violently reminded him of the difference around him.
O'Connor leaned against the wall, moving forward a little.
The intuition brought by the war made O'Connor wonder what was waiting for him on the other side of the wall.
Coming around another corner, O'Connor leaned against the wall and raised his weapon.
After a short, long breath, O'Connor jumped straight around the corner and pointed his gun at the other side.
"Ah......h
The two frightened cries came from Benny and O'Connor, respectively, except that O'Connor had learned Benny's fear pretense.
Putting the weapon back in its holster, O'Connor reached for Benny's chin and told him to shut up.
O'Connor asked, "Why don't you hold a torch?"
"Lost ......"
Benny replied with two words, and his jaw dropped weakly, as before, and his mouth opened wide and let out a silent howl.
"You dislocated your jaw?"
O'Connor looked at Benny, who did not respond, grabbed the edge of Benny's jaw with both hands, and squeezed the condyle downwards in an attempt to press it back into place.
But with every attempt, Benny involuntarily grew his mouth.
O'Connor let go of Benny, looked him in the eye and asked, "There's something behind me, huh?"
Benny closed his mouth and swallowed unconsciously, exhaled for a long time, and nodded fearfully.
O'Connor suddenly turned around and used the American double knife as fast as he could, the Colt revolver and the 1911 style.
Thirteen rounds were fired by O'Connor at the fastest speed.
It wasn't until the bullet inside the gun was fired that O'Connor could see exactly what enemy was in front of him.
A mummy, a moving mummy, to be exact.
The bullet pierced the mummy's body, splattering some of the dried body tissue from the mummy's body. z.br>
Pulling the trigger, the ram of the revolver slapped weakly against the bullet's buttocks, O'Connor looked at the mummy getting closer and closer, and reached for the strap on his body.
Suddenly, O'Connor looked behind the mummy, and then shouted, "
Benny! Hit him!"
O'Connor's appearance made the mummy think that someone was sneaking up on his back. But when he turned around, the empty scene reminded him that "you have been tricked".
Looking back, O'Connor just now also lost a trace.
The resurrected Immorton follows O'Connor, the original High Priest of Hamnat, the guardian of the Pharaoh and the capital of the dead, and who knows the area inside and out as a local.
O'Connor was like a headless fly, running around.
The enemy, which could not be killed by bullets, made O'Connor realize what kind of monster he was encountering. The fear in his heart drove him to keep running, and now he wanted to get out of here.
O'Connor was extremely remorseful, why should he still covet that illusory wealth, he should have left Hamnath far away after getting his first fortune.
"Maybe you shouldn't have left a mark on Benny, maybe those three people have a way......
At the last minute, O'Connor finally thought of the right answer, but Immorton was not going to give him more time to regret it.
O'Connor bowed slightly, and made an inviting gesture to the mummy.
"Here we go! Come on!"
Waving his hand and backing away, O'Connor caught Imton's attention.
However, Immorton didn't move a bit, he reached out to the mural on the wall next to him, as if grasping something, and then jerked it down.
The figure on the mural was dragged out by Immorton, a former monk who was mummified into the mural after his death.
The monk of Immorton dragged his decaying body towards O'Connor, who sighed and said, "Well, since you're not fooled......
Pulling a piece of explosives from his strap, O'Connor clicked the fuse of the explosives.
A pair of hands reaching out from the ground grabbed O'Connor's ankles, and O'Connor fell to the ground on his back. The monk, who was following him closely, snatched the explosives from O'Connor's hands.
The monk with the explosives looked at the fuse and walked tremblingly into the corner of the corridor under Immorton's order.
The explosion took away O'Connor's last glimmer of hope, and he looked at Immorton as he approached, and kept backing away.
"You will be the first mortal to witness my return!"
O'Connor looked at the mummy in front of him and said his last words, "I don't understand what you're saying, but my last wish is to let me go!"
Immorton opened his mouth wide and gnawed at O'Connor's life until O'Connor dehydrated and formed a new mummy.
After his first meal, Immorton felt like something was stuck in his mouth, and a shriveled bug spat out of his mouth with a thud. It was the Plaka parasite on O'Connor.
"People in this era are really in poor health!"
