Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Solar Boat
Menes was pulled into the crypt by the entanglement of rattan, the dark and deep crypt could not see the bottom, this time Menes honestly did not struggle, waiting for the rattan to send himself to the bottom, Rasim was terrified and wanted to swing his sword to cut the rattan but was stopped by the stinger, cut off the rattan and fell down to die?
This time, the magic rattan did not strangle Menes and the group of people hard, it seemed that they just wanted to send Menes to the bottom, everyone waited quietly, and the rattan sent everyone to the bottom.
As they descended slowly, there was a whistling wind overhead, and the three mummies also fell, glanced at Menes in the air, and fell straight to the bottom of the cavern, with a long crashing sound.
It seems that the three mummies chose to jump out of the cave to follow Menes, the mummy is not bad, and he doesn't have to take the elevator downstairs, and Menes has the godhead of the king of mummies, and he does not have the belief that he is not afraid of death and life.
Finally, the four of them landed safely on the ground, and indeed those magic rattans had no malicious intent, and after sending Menes to the bottom, they actually released automatically, and flew forward with a whirlwind and pumped forward against a heavy door, which creaked open.
Jett lights the Kaba candle to illuminate the cavern, the bottom of which is covered with the bones of fallen skeletons, some of which are still shaking, and the Stinger kicks away the living skeletons with a kick of disgust.
The three mummies waited for Menes at the bottom of the cave unharmed.
Menes took the lead and walked through the doorway, when a huge ship appeared, a richly decorated ship of the sun god, with a statue carved on the bow of the god Ra, who was gazing into the distance.
The length of the Helios ship is only more than 60 meters, the height is seven or eight meters, the width is about three meters, and the narrow hull floats in the air.
The other three were stunned, such a huge ship of the sun god was much larger than the ship in the religious ceremony, and longer than the largest sea ship in the Kemert Kingdom.
The whole ship of the sun god is made of cedar wood, with a sturdy keel, the hull is painted gold, glowing with gold in the light of the caba candle, the bow is painted on both sides with the green Eye of Horus, and in the center of the hull a mast of more than thirty meters stands high, and a huge linen sail hangs on the crossmast.
A group of people climbed up a rope ladder to the solar ship, the deck of the cabin was smooth and clean, all kinds of sailing equipment were available, and there was a richly decorated cabin in the aft area, with desks, chairs, beds, pens, ink and paper, like a ship preparing to sail.
Menes wondered where the Helios ship in the crypt would sail to, and it was said that Ra drove the Sun Ship to the Misty Swamp, but there were no sailors here.
Rasim walked into the room with a large basket in his arms and said, "What do you see I found?"
"Sausages, roast leg of lamb, bread, vegetables, fruit and wine, and a galley in the lower cabin, all of which were delicious. Rasim said, taking a bite of a leg of lamb.
The three stared at Rasim silently.
"What do you think I'm doing?" Rasmus asked, puzzled.
"See if you're dead or if you're going to become a monster?" Menes laughed.
"Dead monsters, why?"
"This is the city of the dead, you dare to eat anything, anyone can become an undead, maybe in a moment this food will become a piece of!" said Stinger.
"Bah, ......," Rasim hurriedly spat out the food in his mouth.
"It's okay, you eat first and help us try the poison. ”
The four of them were still patiently visiting the sun ship, suddenly a gust of wind blew, the sun boat moved slightly, the winch of the anchor chain turned by itself, the sun boat that was originally floating in the air sank down suddenly, fell to the ground, the flax sail hanging on the mast puffed up in the wind, the tail rudder swayed, the whole ship made a creaking sound, and began to turn in place.
"Where will the sun boat ferry us?" Menes asked.
"The Misty Swamp, the abode of the gods!" replied Jett respectfully.
"I think it's a hell for the undead, and it's a ferry across the River Styx. Menes said.
The solar ship slowly turned around and passed through the walls of the crypt, and Menes couldn't open her eyes in a dazzling sunlight, and it took a long time for Menes to barely open her eyes.
The sun boat sailed in the middle of a vast sea, overlooking the royal blue sea in the distance, calm and serene, and a breeze blowing through Menes's long hair.
The sky was blue and there were no clouds, and although the sun was not visible, the ocean was still bright.
Menes put away the mummy king's godhead and took the compass from his pocket and looked at it.
The compass turned slowly and rhythmically like a whirling wooden horse, and it was impossible to tell the direction, and Menes said leisurely, "If only Bata were here, he could at least tell us where he was." ”
"Bata can't do it either, we're not in the mortal world at all!" Rasim said on point.
The solar ship floated in the vast sea, time seemed to stand still, there was no night and no day, time and space were confused, Menes suddenly had a feeling of floating in a four-dimensional space, no, it could be a five-dimensional space, or a sixth, seventh-dimensional ......
The feeling reminded Menes of the situation in Interstellar where the spaceship landed in an alien ocean.
It was very strange, Menes felt the wind, but there was no sound of the waves, no wind, no sound of sea creatures, and if everyone didn't gasp, it might be quieter.
A group of people were just drifting on the sea, and I don't know how much time had passed, Rasim couldn't help but ask, "We're not going to be abandoned, are we?
Menes was tired of the boring wait and searched around with her latest telescope.
"There's a black dot ahead, like a boat!" Menes roared suddenly with excitement.
"Where, where?" said Rasim, looking in the direction of Menes' finger.
"No, I didn't see anything!" Rasim was a little disappointed.
"Take it, look at this!" Menes handed the telescope to Rasim.
Rasim fiddled twice, followed Menes' example and looked at him in the eye, "This...... Still no, a white expanse. ”
"It's the other way around!" Menis snatched the binoculars and turned around and shoved them back into Rasim's hand.
"Wow, really, I saw it, I saw it, there really was a black spot, it was a boat. Rasim said in surprise.
Rasim flipped through the telescope and said, "My lord, when did you come up with such a thing? Is this clairvoyance?"
Jett wasn't too surprised, for Menes had admired the telescope when he had tinkered with it.
Stinger was also curious, took the binoculars and looked in the direction of Menes' finger, "Well, it's a boat, and it looks like someone!"
"Quick, quick, turn the rudder, and get on the way!" Menes commanded.
Stinger ran to take the helm and headed for the boat.
After a while, Menes looked at the telescope and laughed, "Haha...... It didn't take much effort to get there, and the man in that boat was Yunia!"
"Yunia, wasn't she captured by a youkai?" Rasim replied.
"yes, so we're here to save her, isn't it normal to see her here!"
Yunia also apparently noticed that a ship was approaching, and stood on the small boat and waved desperately.
As the sun ship drew nearer to Unity, Menes could already see Unity's purple robes.
Menes was also waving her arms to greet Yunia, and the otherwise calm sea suddenly churned, and the sun boat swayed from side to side by the lapping of the waves.
"What's wrong?" roared Menis.
"Watch the rear. Jett suddenly roared.
Menes looked back and saw a huge octopus monster leaping out of the sea, slapping it with its tentacles.
"Mummy!" Menes yelled.
The three mummies grabbed the waving tentacles and pulled them inward, but there were more than three tentacles of the octopus, and all the other tentacles swung around Menes' group.
Eight tentacles just grabbed all eight people, including Yunia, who was not spared, but this tentacle is really long.
Menes was caught in the air by the octopus monster and wielded, and in an emergency, Menes chanted a spell and prepared to transform, and the encore warhammer of the King of Mummies cut off the tentacles of the octopus, and the monster angrily spewed out a stream of black ink and rushed towards Menes.
Menes saw the thick black ink spraying over, and hurriedly jumped into the sea to avoid the ink, and the ink fell in the sea like a boiling oil pot meeting water, boiling and splashing, Menes quickly swam to the bottom of the sea and finally escaped, but there were also a few drops of ink splashed on Menes's armor, and Menes's powerful mummy armor actually burned a small hole.
Menes poked her head out of the water to breathe, the tentacles of the octopus monster that had been severed by Menes had grown, and the other four were caught by the tentacles and flew in the air.
The three mummies were still on the boat, and the octopus monster was competing with the mummies in a tug-of-war, but the three mummies were as firmly nailed to the boat as nails on their feet.
The sun boat was pulled and swayed from side to side, and the three mummies suddenly pulled the octopus monster out of the sea with force together, spun around in the air a few times and threw it out.
The tentacles also flew out, and Menes sprang out of the sea like a swordfish, stabbing the octopus monster in the abdomen, and the octopus monster was hit hard in the abdomen and fell into the sea, letting go of the other four.
Everyone recovered and quickly swam towards the sun boat, the octopus monster fluttered and trembled in the sea, all the ink in the abdomen poured into the sea, the oil pot boiled and turned, and the octopus monster struggled in the middle.
A tentacle flicked over and flew towards Yunia, Jett floated in the sea and did not rush to get on the boat, the chanting spell sent out magic, a hurricane swept up the octopus monster, and the tentacles it flew out did not reach Yunia and drew on Jet's body.
Jett's magic was interrupted instantly, "Oh, stop shouting!" Menes ordered.
The three mummies shouted in unison, and the octopus monster was shocked by the sound, but did not stop moving, what is the situation? Why didn't the octopus monster eat the mummy's cry?
Menes didn't have time to think about it, and took advantage of the octopus monster that was still shaking and pausing its attack, and quickly swam towards the solar boat.
