Chapter 195: Popcorn and Soda

As O'Connor thought, their trip was destined to be uneventful from the start. The last time he escaped from Hamnata , the group of men in black he had accidentally seen struck as he expected.

O'Connor didn't wonder why they made a move, it was nothing more than to monopolize the treasure or something. He was not surprised that their blocking could be so fast and accurateβ€”a well-trained team, combined with an effective intelligence network, could do that. But there was one thing he wondered, how could these men do it so early, and the men in black could have set up an ambush on the road they had to pass. Why are these people so anxious? Like they're afraid of something.

O'Connor pondered, and heard Benny on the other side smugly shouting "O'Connor, hey, O'Connor, it looks like the horses are on my side", so he smiled and replied, "Hey, Benny, it looks like you're on the wrong shore". In a simple sentence, Benny couldn't shout anymore, so he had to whisper an insult, kicked the river hard, and splashed a splash.

The battle between the two teams continues, and whether or not there is a bet on the treasure, they don't want to be left behind.

Although the animals were all with Benny, their group returned to the river bank where the harbor was located, and the boat was in vain. On O'Connor's side, although there were no horses, fortunately they had crossed the river and came to the other side. Next, all you need to do is find a market, buy a few horses, and you can go all the way to your destination.

In contrast, O'Connor's side has a little more advantage.

Still, Benny's words reminded O'Connor. Their original supplies, except for leather bags containing guns and ammunition, treasure boxes, and other personal belongings, all the exploration equipment related to tomb robbing, and all animal power, were not with them.

The priority is not to think about the strangeness of the behavior of the men in black, but to solve the current predicament of his own group. When it's late at night, the first thing to solve is to find a place to rest. However, it is not difficult to do so, it is not the rainy season, and along the Nile, there are many Bedouin settlements in dry places with sparse vegetation. Thinking of this, he beckoned the two siblings and the warden of the prison, a group of four, towards the woods in the distance.

......

The morning sun shines on a Bedouin settlement. It was full of tents, herds of camels, smoke and dust. Children chase and play, adults sit or stroll, work or chat.

The Bedouins are a branch of the Arabs.

For thousands of years, living in the middle of the three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa, West Asia and North Africa, the Arab nation has become the hub of interaction between various peoples and civilizations, and has also made them have thousands of years of business history.

However, unlike most of the Arabs, who were engaged in commerce and reselling, the nomadic Bedouins mostly lived by raising and selling camels, and often lived in arid areas with sparse vegetation – which is why O'Connor was confident that he would have no trouble finding Bedouin settlements at this time.

The prison warden, who spent the night here, was well fed and slept, but he did not change his mind, and tried to break into the women's pile. When he was bombarded away by them, he was still swearing in his mouth. At the same time, Jonathan's complexion not far away was not very good-looking.

"I only need four, four! I want four, not a herd!"

Jonathan shook excitedly and shouted hoarsely, while the Bedouin, who was opposite him with four camels in his hands, behaved even more exaggeratedly than he was, like a child, barking and jumping to his feet.

In Jonathan's opinion, the asking price is already ridiculously high, and even buying a large herd of camels is enough. However, it is clear that even if the Bedouins are not businessmen, they are not bad at bargaining as a branch of the Arab nation. He bargained repeatedly, and after a few times, the Bedouin had begun to live and die. After talking for a long time, the two of them were anxious, but in his opinion, they only lowered the price a little, how could they not be angry.

"Oh my God, can you believe it?"

Almost angry with this unreasonable guy, he turned his head to look at O'Connor behind him, asking for support.

"Can you pay?" said Jonathan as he looked at him, O'Connor pointed his finger at the former, warning.

He was also a little impatient, compared to the treasure of Hamnata, what was the point of fighting for this little profit now? Besides, they had a bet with Benny and his gang for up to five hundred dollars. The most important thing is that, in fact, the price has been pushed to the lowest point of Johnathan's reasonable range, but he has no intention of giving up, and has a penny to buy the frame of four camels. This is also the reason why the camel seller behaves more anxiously than Jonathan.

Jonathan was too timid to fight O'Connor, and he knew he was taking advantage of it, so O'Connor's orders were met, and he did so, but in the end he couldn't help but complain twice - he felt that he could have spent less.

"You just have to give him your sister, and you don't have to pay. ”

O'Connor understood Jonathan's thoughts, and mocked as he took the camel leash.

"yes, isn't that fascinating?"

Knowing that O'Connor was joking with himself and making money, Jonathan imagined it, couldn't help but agree, and walked away first.

At this time, O'Connor saw Evelyn walking towards him, her slender body was draped in a translucent black veil, and her flesh was becoming more and more prominent, wearing a translucent veil decorated with complex patterns and a mysterious atmosphere of ancient Egypt, curled and overlapping dark blonde hair, a pair of deep beautiful eyes with affection, and the looming smile hidden behind the veil, full of gorgeous and mysterious temperament, he was already stunned.

"Yes. ”

He replied to himself, just as he had brought Evelyn the first shock after tidying up, and at this time, in turn, he began to be fascinated by her.

......

"I don't like camels, they are dirty and smelly, they bite, drool and they hate it to death. ”

A group of four, riding camels, walked on a desert of yellow sand, and as usual, Jonathan began his daily complaint again. While this was true, he said this at the same time as he glanced at the warden behind him, who was like a camel, munching and spitting out food scraps and spitting out a large pile of saliva. Clearly, Jonathan meant something.

Then, the warden's saliva squirted even harder.

"I think they're cute. ”

Evelyn, who was at the front of the group, didn't understand what Jonathan meant. She was kind by nature, with a calm temperament, smiled, and touched the camel's head.

At this time, the warden was even more proud, and even sang loudly, causing everyone to look back at him who had fallen at the back of the line.

The heat wave was rolling, the wind and sand were all over the sky, and a group of four people, riding camels, passed through the plains, climbed over the dunes, and stopped several times in between, from sunrise to sunset.

Under the vast moonlight, the camels with good endurance were still roaming, and some people in the team were already in high spirits and began to doze off.

Evelyn, sitting on the back of a camel and swaying back and forth, had already closed her eyes. She fell headfirst on O'Connor's shoulder, carefully lifted up by him. The camel barked, and O'Connor booed it for fear of waking Evelyn.

On the other hand, Jonathan, who was about to fall asleep, was woken up by the thunderous snoring of the prison warden, and immediately waved the whip in his hand and gave the other party a whip to eat. The warden, who woke up screaming, muttered in bewilderment. At this time, Jonathan had already returned to his sleeping posture, leaving no flaws.

However, at this time, O'Connor's attention was not on the noisy warden, and his heart moved inexplicably, and he immediately turned his head to look into the distance. There, on the edge of the full moon, on a rocky hill, stood a row of horsemen. His heart tightened, and his eyes did not leave them for a moment.

"This guy is strong. ”

Among the knights dressed in black, a handsome man with eyes as sharp as an eagle seemed to be the leader of the crowd. He looked at O'Connor and judged.

He still remembered that at the beginning, the group of them who were guarding the top of the Hamna Tower, watching O'Connor stumble away, someone proposed to kill the Destroyer, so as not to reveal the location of the Hamna Tower, and cause too much interference to their duty to prevent the resurrection of evil spirits for generations. At that time, he was still very confident that "the Sahara Desert will take care of him", and did not directly kill O'Connor.

Then, he was slapped in the face. O'Connor not only did not die, but returned unharmed after three years of fighting back against their sneak attack on the ship. Although he was determined to destroy these troublemakers, he still respected the strong and still had respect for O'Connor, a powerful man.

The black knights departed, and they began to prepare for the outsiders. After looking at the empty mound for a while, O'Connor finally withdrew his gaze.

Under the quiet moonlight, the camel caravan was still strolling.

The night passed, the sun broke and the sun still did not show its head.

The people on the camel's back have already woken up. The four of them came to the foot of a rocky sand dune and urged the camel under his crotch to slow down. On the opposite side of them, Benny's group, which had been one step behind, was walking in the opposite direction, and in the same way, slowing down. It is clear that the two camps are back on the same page.

On the top of the rock on their side, no one noticed that a young man was sitting up from a recliner made of vines, looking down with great interest.

"Isn't that funny, you say?" said the young man.

"I can make it all more fun if you're willing. ”

A flattery came from behind the young man, a dark, humanoid being with a jackal's head.

"No need, the game between the gods, I will go to your master to play in the future. As for now...... "The young man stretched out his hand and shook it, a bucket of popcorn in one hand and a bottle of Coke in the other," and let me watch the show quietly. ”

"Void Creation...... "Jackal Head muttered, gasped, and immediately lowered his head, "Okay, we won't bother you again! ”

After speaking, the jackal's head turned into ashes and disappeared.
