Chapter 53: Horus
The strange scene that happened outside the stone room quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the stone room, and when they saw the scene outside, a creepy feeling gradually came to their hearts.
"This ...... What is it. Catherine trembled as she looked at the gray mist, her heart beating faster and a feeling of horror creeping through her heart.
Is this supernatural power?
This is the common thought that pops into the minds of all those who know that there are supernatural forces in this world.
"What now?"
A mercenary approached Commander Chalaman and said in a low voice.
As private mercenaries who have retired from the United States Marine Corps on the surface, they have secretly been under the command of the Ministry of Defense of the United States.
This time, the Ministry of Defense of the United States sent them over to seize the Eye of Horus, which may be an extraordinary artifact, and opened up a lot of information that was kept secret to ordinary people, so they understood very well how terrifying the transcendent power was.
I knew we had Egyptian guards in our battle plan, but you didn't tell me there were transcendents.
What to do?
I want to ask this question too.
Chalaman moved his fingers away from his back, where a weapon was hidden, but ...... Fight the transcendent with a pistol? No kidding, as for the brothers outside, they are probably all wiped out by now.
The gray mist spread over, and when they arrived in the stone room, looking at these fogs, the faces of the people in the stone room showed panic, and they retreated back in a panic.
Although I don't know what these fogs are, no one wants to be the next person in the fog to freeze like a relief mural.
Soon, they retreated to the innermost part of the stone room against the wall, and dozens of people were huddled together in layers, nervously looking at the gray mist spreading over, their faces frightened.
Boom!
I don't know who reached out and gave Professor Felton a push behind him, knocking him to the ground.
"Teacher. ”
Catherine saw this, and in a panic she went up to help Professor Felton and lift him up from the ground, and the next moment she heard a frightened voice in the room that silenced all the noise.
"Look, look, there's someone in the fog. ”
Catherine instinctively looked up, only to see a vague figure in the gray mist.
As he went, the fog rolled and dissipated, and the vague figures in the fog stopped what they hadn't done, knelt on their legs, raised their arms above their heads, and assumed a strange posture, as if bowing to this vague figure.
Because the fog was dispersed, the appearance of the blurred figure gradually became clear.
Only then did everyone see that it was a man in a black robe and a golden hat, carrying a golden coffin on his back, holding a dark crank staff in his hand, and a pair of empty eyes as if he could see, and his gaze swept over everyone's face.
"It's ....... ”
"Lotus...... Horus. ”
Catherine muttered, her pupils that reflected the other party's appearance shrank, she felt her scalp explode, and an indescribable chill crept up her body.
The stone chamber was so suddenly silent that you could hear the sound of a needle falling on the ground.
Horus stepped up, his tall figure blocking out the sunlight that was shining in, casting a shallow shadow over Catherine's body.
Instinctively wanting to run away, she was stunned to find that she seemed to be frozen, and her whole body was no longer obedient.
Are you going to die here?
Catherine laughed bitterly in her heart, and suddenly the appearance of many people appeared in her mind, and she had a lot to say, Dad, Mom, I'm sorry .......
He slowly bent down, stretched out his right hand, and his black-gloved fingers ran all the way down Catherine's fair face, his throat moving, and his voice squeezed out hard, "My Sekhmet......." ”
A cold touch quickly spread from her face to her whole body, and Catherine, who was ready to die, was stunned to find that she was still alive.
Sekhmet?
Do you mean me?
The description of Sekhmet popped into her fear-filled mind.
Legend has it that when the god Ra was old, the humans and gods of the earth were ready to act in vain to become the ruler of everything in place of the god Ra, and when the god Ra noticed it, he took off his right eye and ordered it to punish the humans and gods who did not obey his rule.
This right eye inherited the wrath of the god Ra and transformed into the tyrannical goddess of war, Sekhmet, to slaughter the humans and gods on the land who tried to subvert the rule of the god Ra.
Blood, stained the sky red, and all humans and gods who did not obey the god Ra were slaughtered.
Seeing that he was almost done, he drunk Sekhmet with a drink made of pomegranates, and turned the goddess of war, Sekhmet, into the goddess Hathor, who later became the wife of Horus.
So, I ...... Am I His wife?
Thinking like this, Catherine found herself in her hands, and she held Horus's cold hands with both hands, and let out a mean scream on her lips, "Horus, you still dare to come to see me, I want to kill you with my own hands and bury you in a holy coffin full of scarabs......"
No...... No, I didn't, I didn't say that.
Catherine's pupils instantly became frightened, and she felt that she would be strangled to death by this cold hand in the next moment.
Burying people in a coffin full of scarab beetles is the most cruel and vicious insect devouring punishment in ancient Egypt, and saying that those who hold their lives will be punished with death is not looking for death.
But Catherine's imaginary strangulation by Horus's own hands did not appear, his waist bent even lower, his face kissed Catherine's cheek, and the face that seemed to be real people had a feeling as hard as steel.
He said softly, "Sekhmet, I'll release you now." ”
With that, Horus walked towards the Eye of Horus, and the gray mist began to spread, engulfing the people in the stone room, no matter what they were doing before, it was as quiet as the reliefs and murals carved on it, keeping the previous movements frozen.
Everybody is dead?Catherine only felt that the blood in her whole body had stopped flowing, and her body became numb.
But just as Horus reached out and took the Eye of Horus.
A light shone in.
The midday sun shone on the god Ra, on the god Amun, on the body of Ramses II, but not on the god Ptah, who represented the underworld.
The gray mist receded at once, and the vague figures in the fog dissipated, and even Horus's figure became blurred.
Catherine was in a trance when she heard Horus's voice, "Sekhmet, I'll come to your ...... again." ”
