Chapter 2 Start
"The Legend of Gods series, or the Mummy series, is considered a classic among action-adventure movies, almost as famous as the Raiders of the Lost Ark series..." After glancing at the bustling crowd of people on the streets of Cairo outside the main god's protective shield,
, Ye Zi was the first to speak: "Most people have probably seen this series of movies, so I will simply recount the plot."
"In 1920 BC, the high priest Imoton had an affair with Princess Ansuna and gave Pharaoh Seti I a green hat. After the adultery was exposed, they even joined forces to kill the mistress. Uh, by the way,
Although this unlucky pharaoh is not famous, his legitimate son and successor is the most famous pharaoh in history - Ramesses II."
(Nothing is impossible for the Pharaoh on earth, and everything is in his hands...ahem, I am cheating.)
"Faced with the pharaoh's guards who arrived, Ansuna cut off her rear and died. After escaping, Immorton sneaked into Hamnata, the capital of the dead, took out the Black Book of the Dead, and tried to use the magic rituals in it to resurrect Ansuna.
Suna. But this time, the pharaoh’s guards arrived just in time. They interrupted the magic ceremony and sentenced Immorton to the death penalty—insect bite.”
"The punishment of insect bite is to mummify the sinner alive and seal it in a sarcophagus with countless scarabs, so that while he is awake, the scarabs will slowly eat away all his flesh and blood... and this execution is cruel.
In addition, it is also a curse. If Immortun is released, he will become an undead monster with infinite power and wreak havoc on the world."
"In 1926 AD, the protagonist and his party went to Hamunata to explore. The heroine Eve pretended to die and recited the incantation in the Black Book of the Dead, and inadvertently resurrected Immorton. After his resurrection, Imogen swallowed
The three American plot characters restored their flesh and blood and magic power, and brought ten plagues to Cairo. Finally, they kidnapped Eve to Hamna Tower, intending to use her as a container to resurrect Ansuna."
"Of course, its plan failed. Relying on the incantation in the Sun Golden Sutra, the protagonist and his party broke its immortality. The hero O'Connor pierced it's chest with a sword and gave it the final blow... That's all.
The entire plot of "Legend of Gods and Ghosts I"."
After telling the general plot, Ye Zi turned to look at Chu Xuan who was aside. After meeting her gaze, Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses and said calmly: "Next, is our mission for this horror film.
… Putting aside the team battle rules, the mission description is only three short paragraphs, but the information contained in it is quite rich."
"First of all, it's the time. Considering that another team, the Indian team, has entered in advance, plus the content of our mission this time, at the current time, there is a probability of more than 90% that Immorton has just been resurrected.
, is about to begin to wreak havoc on the human world.”
"Secondly, there are the 'Ten Disasters'. In the original plot, Immorton sent down the 'Ten Disasters'. Apart from spreading destruction and fear, it didn't seem to have any special purpose. And here, since the Lord God asked us to stop the 'Ten Disasters'
"Disasters", and even issued a total of 15,000 points, a high penalty that is enough to wipe out all of us with negative points, which shows that the status of the "Ten Disasters" is more important than shown in the original plot. Regarding this, I have a
An inference..."
"The plague of blood, the plague of frogs, the plague of lice, the plague of flies, the plague of livestock, the plague of scabies, the plague of hail, the plague of locusts, the plague of darkness, the plague of killing the firstborn. The earliest source of these ten plagues is "Exodus from Egypt" in the Old Testament.
》, it is the coming of God Yahweh
The warning in Egypt, and the religious meaning behind it, is a denial of the Egyptian gods - in the face of the miracles sent by God, neither the Pharaoh, who is known as the incarnation of God, nor the Egyptian gods behind him are powerless.
"
"Now, in Egypt in 1926 AD, no one believes in the Egyptian gods anymore. The people who rule this land are the British and the Egyptians - the former believes in Christianity and the latter believes in [DATA EXPUNGED]. These two monotheistic religions
Although fire and water are incompatible, their beliefs point to the same true God... In this case, the significance of Immorton's 'Ten Plagues' has begun to emerge."
"To use the other's way to repay the other's body, to bring the so-called true god's miracles to the heads of his believers, from a religious point of view, this is an unprecedented 'blasphemy', and Immorton himself is very
It is possible to gain something from this 'ritual'."
"Is it similar to the 'blasphemous priest' in the rules of Dungeons and Dragons?" Overlord scratched his head and interjected with some uncertainty.
"It should be different." Chu Xuan shook his head slightly and continued: "But it is very likely that every time Immorton brings a disaster, his strength will increase by one point... Of course, judging from the rules of the Lord God, this
The ceremony cannot happen overnight. There must be at least a few hours between each disaster. Otherwise, we would have no chance to interrupt the ceremony."
"Finally, it's the Indian team..."
"In the eyes of the Lord God, our strength, or in other words, the 'paper evaluation' under a certain scoring system, is much higher than the other party."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in high spirits. Although they did not necessarily have to go to war with the other party, if they had the upper hand, they would be able to take the initiative and be able to fight or make peace. Only Ye Zi frowned slightly.
Wrinkled, there was a hint of ominous premonition.
"The reason is very simple. A weak team enters a horror movie early. As long as it is done properly, it can gain enough 'power' to balance the strength gap between the two parties - such as taking away key plot props, or making friends with important plot characters, etc.
For "Legend of Gods and Ghosts", this 'first-mover advantage' is astonishingly large..."
"The Golden Scripture of the Sun and the Black Scripture of the Dead, these two important plot props, have probably fallen into the hands of the Indian team. If their mission does not conflict with Immorton's interests, they can even win over him as an ally."
"Damn, the Lord God really thinks highly of us." After listening to Chu Xuan's analysis, Zheng Zha smiled bitterly and finally understood the situation in front of him: It's like two parties A and B are fighting in the ring, and an unscrupulous referee thinks that A is too thin.
So I gave him a watermelon knife... Well, that makes sense.
"In addition, as Chu Xuan said, this is just a gap in 'paper strength'..." Ye Zi played with the hair beside his ears and added: "Our rating is falsely high, or the other party's rating is falsely low.
It’s not impossible, and you must not be careless and underestimate the enemy.”
"I see."
In response to Ye Zi's warning, Zheng Zha nodded solemnly, and then looked at the newcomer who had just woken up - this handsome young man with a baby face, about twenty years old, was the only one in this horror movie.
I'm a newcomer, in other words, this is a nine-person horror film.
After Zhan Lan introduced the rules of the main god space, the slightly shy young man also briefly introduced himself: his name is Zhang Heng. Although he is still in his junior year, he is already a national-level archer.
He is an athlete and is good at using compound bows.
(Well, Zhang Heng is still there, but Xiao Honglu is missing... Did I take the spot like Li Xiaoyi and others? Or, this time Chu Xuan is not dead, so the Lord God does not intend to give more wise men to the Zhongzhou team.
?)
Just when Ye Zi was sighing secretly... Of course, she was different from a certain Ms. Takahashi. She was definitely not a shotacon. She was just sighing that there was a missing person in the team. Suddenly, a noisy voice came to her ears: This means
The main god's protective shield has disappeared, and this time the horror movie has officially begun!
Zhan Lan's reaction was extremely fast, and he instantly deployed his mental force field, shielding everyone present. After scanning the entire Cairo city and its surroundings, he signaled that no trace of the Indian team was found... This perfect reaction was
Even Chu Xuan nodded approvingly.
"Then, where should we go first..."
"It's the Cairo Antiquities Museum."
Then, Ye Zi and Chu Xuan looked at each other and said in unison.
----------
The Cairo Antiquities Museum is where the plot of "Legend of Gods and Ghosts" begins: the heroine Eve works there, and Dr. Terrence Bay, who serves as the curator, is a descendant of the Pharaoh's bodyguard and guards Hamna Tower.
A member of the "Mausoleum Guard". Since the Indian team is not in Cairo and is most likely still at Hamna Tower, then this is the most suitable place to obtain information.
"Zhan Lan, please scan the inside of the museum carefully so that our 'Indian friends' don't leave any 'surprises' for us."
After about ten minutes of walking, everyone arrived not far from the museum. Ye Zi stopped and signaled Zhan Lan to scan the interior of the museum inch by inch: If the Indian team predicts their actions, they will
It would be great fun to have things like "micropolymer bombs" installed in the museum in advance and plan to blow them up into the sky along with the museum.
But Zhan Lan nodded and closed his eyes, and after scanning for a while, his face suddenly changed and he retched several times!
"Are you okay, Zhan Lan? What did you find?"
Patting her back, Ye Zi asked in a deep voice, and Zhan Lan took a deep breath before calming down and sharing the picture in his mind with Ye Zi and Chu Xuan.
I saw that in the coffins in the basement of the museum, some "fresh" parts had been added to the ancient and broken mummies: some arms, some thighs, heads, internal organs, even genitals, etc. And the person who performed the operation,
Obviously he has enough understanding of the human body. When cutting off these parts, he kept them as original as possible, just like a cook cutting off a cow, as if... he was completing a crazy and creepy work of art!
If you suppress your nausea and put these "parts" together in your mind, you will be able to recognize the original appearance of this tragic victim - it is the old curator, Dr. Terrence Bay!
"Did you see something you shouldn't have seen, so you were silenced?"
Unlike Ye Zi, who looked gloomy, Chu Xuan seemed quite calm, and his tone was as calm as ever.
"Dead people can't speak. This idea is not wrong, but in the world of" The Legend of God ", this is not the case ..."
"Moreover,‘ divide the deceased into seventeenths ’line, it’ s even more to paint a snake. ”
Among the cold pupils under the pair of light glasses, the blue light flowed slightly.
Chapter completed!
