In mid-air, the army of locusts had already left, the moon was clear and the wind was clear, and it was a quiet scene. Standing here, the young man glanced at the black-clad knight who was coming after being alarmed in the distance, and retracted his gaze to look down at his feet.

At this time, there was chaos in the mausoleum. Encountering a monster, the glasses man's eyes and tongue were taken away. The people who had been hiding from the locusts began to avoid the scarabs that appeared halfway, but they still inevitably suffered casualties - the workers who fell behind died tragically under the gnawing of the swarm.

Outside the mausoleum, when the black knights arrived, inside the mausoleum, the people who had already been frightened again and again encountered the most terrifying and incredible thing in their lives - a living corpse. Then, unable to stand the mausoleum, which was more terrible than the outside world, everyone hurriedly fled to the ground, and finally crashed into the muzzle of a group of black-clothed men who had just entered the mausoleum, led by archaeologists.

"I said that if you don't leave, you will die, and if you don't listen, now everyone has to die. You have unleashed a three-thousand-year-old monster. ”

The knight leader stepped out in a crowd and pulled down his mask, a handsome man with a Van Dyck beard and a tremolo who spoke.

"Don't worry, I'll kill him. ”

In the face of the reproach of the knight leader, O'Connor did not flinch in his eyes. He was sure that just before he left, a shotgun had knocked the seemingly terrifying, but in fact fragile monster to the ground - he fled in a hurry with everyone, and without looking back, the monster he thought he had killed was shot and fell to the ground, and immediately stood up as if no one was fine.

He didn't know the characteristics of monsters, but the knight leader who guarded the undead was clear: "Human weapons can't kill him, he doesn't belong to this world." ”

As the words fell, he stepped aside, and behind him, two men in black with glasses with weak feet stepped forward and placed him in the open space between the two groups. Seeing this, the other two cowboys hurriedly stepped forward to check, and saw that the two eyes of the glasses man had become hollow, and the mourning was endless, and the two were greatly touched and filled with grief and indignation.

"Bastard!" the man in dark clothes glared at the man in black with a look of disbelief.

The blonde man suppressed his anger: "What did you do to him?"

"We rescued him from the monster. The knight leader explained, turning to the others in front of him, "If you don't want to die, leave at once." ”

After speaking, he gave an order, and the men in black lowered their guns and marched with him to the depths of the mausoleum. There's no point in dwelling up with these troublemakers anymore. The top priority is to find a way to deal with the monster that has just been resurrected and is not particularly powerful.

"We have to go in and find a way to deal with him. As O'Connor passed, the knight leader said.

In any case, the birth of the monster is a fact, and in his opinion, O'Connor and his party have nothing to do with this chaos now, even if they are responsible for the disaster. The meaning of this could not be more obvious - you have already made enough of the mess here, and we have to bother cleaning up this mess, so don't stay here and continue to make trouble.

Hearing this, O'Connor frowned.

"As I said, I killed him. ”

He is full of confidence in the power of ***, and he is also full of confidence in his own ability. Under normal circumstances, he would not easily allow others to question his abilities.

The knight leader stopped, turned to look at O'Connor, and his face was extremely serious.

"Remember, this monster is a messenger of death, he will not be hungry, he will not be tired, and he will not stop. ”

The knight leader made a point clear, saying that O'Connor couldn't solve the monster, but in fact, it was the right thing and not the right person. The implication is that this monster is not something that mortals can deal with.

Leaving this seemingly threatening admonition, he rushed into the depths of the mausoleum without looking back.

Seeing that the other party said this, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought, and O'Connor no longer recklessly did it, and began to pack his luggage with everyone.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, compared to the crowd when he first arrived at the Hamna Tower, the camp now has only O'Connor, Evelyn, Jonathan, the three cowboys and the archaeologist. In addition to the unlucky prison warden, the workers, who accounted for the majority of the workers, were also fleeing from death and death in a series of accidents, until in the end there was not one left.

And Benny, who was also not among the survivors at this time, was not dead. However, at this time, he was in the mausoleum, face to face with monsters, and he was not necessarily more lucky than those who died.

Who wouldn't be scared when they suddenly bumped into a monster, let alone Benny, who was timid by nature. Seeing that the situation was critical, the monster threatened himself step by step, and while he retreated, he took out a large number of religious symbols from his body and tried to save himself. He doesn't have a good character, but he thinks a lot. The last time he was on the ship, in the face of O'Connor's intimidation, he knew the other party's temperament well, and he played the family card without thinking. This time, in the face of supernatural existence, he also took out the preparations he had already made - tokens of various religions, as well as corresponding prayers. These were all preparations he had made in advance for fear of the Tower of Hamna, which had the title of the City of the Dead.

At the beginning, the Christian cross pendant, the **** crescent moon amulet, the Buddha statue pendant, these three symbols and the corresponding prayers successively did not have an effect on the monster. Fortunately, it wasn't until the appearance of the six-pointed star amulet in Judaism that the monster finally stopped wanting to harm Benny when he recited the corresponding prayer.

But the funny thing is that this is not because Judaism is special compared to other religions and can fight back against monsters, but it can hear it, and the language of this last sentence is the language of the Jewish people who were slaves in ancient Egypt. Finally found a person to communicate with, and realized that Benny had a use value, not because of the intervention of external forces, but because of the idea of harming Benny on his own.

"The Language of Slaves...... I might be able to use you. You serve me......" said it, stretching out its hand, and on it, a pile of gold vessels, "is a great reward." ”

Seeing this pile of treasures, Benny is like seeing the lover of his dreams, and his expression changes from horror to obsession, and then to a secret joy mixed with greed.

"Your Highness, please. He smiled heartily.

The monster took out the broken lion-headed burial urn with a fierce face: "Where are the other holy urns?"

Benny immediately confessed truthfully, and betraying others was as easy for him as eating and drinking. Knowing what was going on, the monster left Benny in place for the time being, and he went to the surface first.

Finally, when it stood on the ground, behind it, the men in black had been dragged by Benny, and in front of it, the dust raised by O'Connor and his party when they left.

Beside it, the young man looked at the sky, where the continuous spiritual power was like a kite in the air, pulled to the monster's body by a silk thread.

......

After escaping the Hamna Tower, at Byton Fort in Cairo, O'Connor and his party arrived here and booked tickets for tomorrow's ferry from a nearby ferry. If it weren't for the fact that there was no steamer that sold tickets and set sail immediately, some of them would have preferred to leave immediately and escape from this place of right and wrong.

At this time, the sky above Fort Byton was already shrouded in thunderclouds, and the lightning and thunder seemed to be endless.

In an increasingly depressing atmosphere, a fierce dispute is escalating in Evelyn's hotel room.

"Don't you believe in the old stories?"

Packing up Evelyn's clothes, O'Connor lifted the suitcase and threw them in. On the side, Evelyn hurriedly picked up the white cat that was sitting on the suitcase, put it down again, and let it run away - this is a docile pet that the hotel has specially placed in the guest's room to please the guests in order to solve the pest infestation. As the region with the longest history of cat breeding, it is not uncommon for Egyptian locals to take such countermeasures in the face of snakes, rats, insects and ants.

However, at this time, Evelyn obviously can't play with cats with peace of mind. Taking the time to take care of the white cat, she freed her hand, took out the clothes she had just put in the suitcase, and threw them on the bed.

"I met a 3,000-year-old mummy that could walk and talk, and I had to believe it. ”

One is evasive, the other is confronted, and both of them have extraneous meanings.

"Don't think about it, pack it up now, let's check out and leave!" O'Connor said.

"No, we're not leaving!"

Without saying a few words, the two of them moved their thoughts to the table. One kept throwing Evelyn's clothes, books, and other personal items into the suitcase, and the other followed closely behind, picking up all the things he had just put in the suitcase.

"Yes, let's go!"

"If you don't go, it's our duty to stop him!"

"What are we? I didn't read that book. Did I tell you not to touch that book?"

O'Connor looked indignant, even though he knew that saying this at this time was purely an afterthought, but he couldn't help but complain. The reason for this, the knight leader is right, this matter is beyond his ability, and in his opinion, it is useless to do anything now. What else can be done besides complaining?

At the end of the day, he is a man of reality, a self-aware man who knows what he can and can't do, so he never forces himself to pursue goals that seem out of reach, like stopping the unstoppable monster.

"Yes, it's me, it's me, so it's my responsibility to stop him. ”

On the other hand, Evelyn has a greater sense of ownership and is more responsible than O'Connor when it comes to big things. Many times she encountered things beyond her ability, and she didn't see her flinch, plus she knew that the monster was released by herself, so this time, she wouldn't run away either.

Ordinary girls, when they hear O'Connor's words of suspicion of shirking responsibility, will only fall into an endless scolding war with him, and finally get a mess of chicken feathers. But she is different, she will not blindly show a weak posture when the situation is critical, and she will not poke out the basket and throw the pot at each other.

All because this is a woman with an independent consciousness, a woman who has the same firm principles and positions as O'Connor. Therefore, she is also O'Connor, who is used to machismo, a woman who has a great headache.

"How to stop it?" he really can't help her, he can't even deal with things he can't do, what kind of effort is she making up for it, "That guy said that ordinary weapons can't kill him." ”
