Chapter 492 God’s Blessing

Li Yuanhong was stunned for a while while holding the two gem fragments. Suddenly he heard movement behind him. When he turned around, he saw several mummies chasing after him.

"Not bad, I was able to break through the trap array. It seems you are lucky!"

Li Yuanhong saw that several mummies had injuries on their bodies. They were obviously injured by the mechanism. This made it easier for him to fight, and Li Yuanhong also enjoyed the results.

Fighting with the injured mummies was almost not difficult. He quickly killed several mummies. Then Li Yuanhong returned to the sacrificial hall. On the way back, he saw several mummies dead in the trap. He thought there should be no living things here. .

The journey went smoothly, and nothing disturbed him anymore. When Li Yuanhong reopened the door of the control room, Li Yuanhong unexpectedly saw a living person, a person wearing sacrificial clothes, but this person was not as dressed as the high priest. Gorgeous, the clothes are made of coarse cloth.

"I didn't expect there to be anyone alive here. They are probably the servants of the sacrificial priest. Let's just kill him!" Li Yuanhong muttered, raising his knife and preparing to chop down.

"Do not kill me!"

Suddenly, the servant shouted in ancient Hebrew.

Li Yuanhong suddenly paused. Although Hebrew is spoken by few people, it is still an earth language. Li Yuanhong's translation system has it stored, so Li Yuanhong understood it.

"Oh? Do you know the earth language?" Li Yuanhong looked at this slave curiously.

"I...I am a slave serving the high priest. I have to deal with the hardworking people frequently, so I can speak the language of the slaves." The slave said.

"Oh? It turns out that Hebrew is the language of slaves. This is the first time I have heard of it." Li Yuanhong said to himself.

"What?" Because Li Yuanhong muttered to himself in a low voice, the servant did not hear clearly.

"It's okay. It's okay if I don't kill you, but you have to give me a reason not to kill you!" Li Yuanhong looked at the slave with squinting eyes. For Li Yuanhong, whether to kill this person or not does not matter to the overall situation, but if he can get more useful information, Li Yuanhong does not care about letting this person go.

"I know everything about the high priest. As long as you don't kill me, I will tell you everything I know." The slave said quickly.

"Let me think about it, please tell me first, how does the high priest control the defense of this pyramid?" Li Yuanhong then asked the question that he was most concerned about.

The servant told everything he knew in order to survive. After hearing this, Li Yuanhong had doubts, so he asked: "Without the Eye of the Sun God and the Pupil of the Moon God, how did the high priest activate the defense of this pyramid?"

"The Eyes of the Sun God and the Pupils of the Moon God contain the divine power of the Sun God and the Moon God. In the past, both gems were lost for a period of time. During this period, a sacrificial priest used the Moon God's Tear Gem and Fire The power gem replaced the two gems and activated the pyramid defense, but there seemed to be some sequelae, which the high priest did not say."

Li Yuanhong knew this time what the two gems in the hands of the high priest were used for.

"Then why did the high priest fight with those zombies?" Li Yuanhong asked another question.

"This..." This time the servant didn't answer immediately, fearing that Li Yuanhong would kill him immediately if he lost his backer.

"What? You don't know?" Li Yuanhong showed a threatening look and raised the knife in his hand slightly.

When the servant saw it, he immediately sweated and said quickly: "Yes...that's it. When the high priest was searching a historical site, he found a book, an ancient book about summoning ancient gods by ancient sacrifices. This ancient book introduced, This pyramid is not just a defensive weapon, but more importantly, this pyramid is a signal tower for communicating with the gods. These defensive weapons are just accessories to ensure the safety of the signal tower."

"What does this have to do with the high priest fighting zombies?" Li Yuanhong asked impatiently.

"That's right. The book introduces that the person who presides over the summons will be blessed by the gods and can gain the power of gods."

"Is there still such a thing?" Li Yuanhong frowned.

"That's what the book said, but the high priest didn't tell His Majesty the Pharaoh about it. Later, the Pharaoh found out that the high priest had hidden something from him, so he started to take precautions against the high priest and even prevented the high priest from touching those artifacts. So the high priest stole those artifacts and fled the palace, which caused His Majesty the Pharaoh to send troops to encircle and suppress them." The servant continued.

"Oh, so that's it." Li Yuanhong finally understood what the battle between zombies and mummies was like.

Suddenly Li Yuanhong remembered something and asked, "So does the Pharaoh know about these gems and the blessings of the gods?"

"None of these high priests told His Majesty the Pharaoh, and even the high priests secretly built an army of mummies, but they did so without the knowledge of His Majesty the Pharaoh," the servant said.

"Interesting, I didn't expect this high priest to be very ambitious." Li Yuanhong thought to himself. From all indications, this high priest does not simply want to receive blessings from the gods.

However, a plan suddenly appeared in Li Yuanhong's mind, but before that, Li Yuanhong still had one problem he didn't understand: where is the pyramid portal.

"This portal is in another tunnel. That tunnel leads to the bottom of the pyramid. However, entering the room of the teleportation array requires a special key. Without this key, the room of the portal cannot be opened." The slave said .

"Where is this key?"

"This key is unique to His Majesty the Pharaoh. No one else can even touch this key."

"It seems that we really have to cause trouble for this pharaoh!" Li Yuanhong sighed helplessly. He originally thought that he would go directly to the pyramid and press the crystal that destroyed the teleportation array, and everything would be fine. He didn't expect to find the key.

However, Li Yuanhong now has an idea. He plans to use this pyramid as a bait to attract the Pharaoh's army to attack, while he waits for work and destroys the Pharaoh's troops.

That night, Abinus was drinking wine in his tent in a depressed mood. Now he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off, either leaving or staying.

At this moment, a kobold soldier ran in: "Report, Lord Abinus, we found a letter!"

"Letter? Whose letter?" Abinus was very puzzled. It was so sentimental to send a letter here in the middle of the night.

"It's for you, Lord Abinus." The soldier arrived.

"Who sent this letter?" asked Albinus.

"I don't know!" the kobold replied.

"I don't know? How did you get the letter?"

"While we were patrolling the camp, a bow and arrow suddenly hit the village gate. We thought we were being attacked by an enemy. At that time, we were almost scared to death!" The kobold said with some fear.

"Cowardly fellow, what's next?" Abinus then asked.

"Then we lay on the ground and waited for a long time, but saw no movement. We got up and looked around. When there was no other movement, we looked at the arrow. Sure enough, there was something on the arrow, and it was this letter."

The kobold said, handing the letter to Albinus.

Abinus took the letter and saw the words "Your Majesty Abinus personally express" written in ancient Egyptian on the cover of the letter. So Abinus opened the letter carefully, and when he saw that there was no magic fluctuation, he took out the letter.

The letter was written by a servant of the high priest. He said that he was very dissatisfied with the high priest's betrayal of His Majesty the Pharaoh and decided to change his ways and return to the Pharaoh's tent. In order to show his sincerity, he decided to tell the secret of the high priest in order to atone for his sins.

The letter told Abinus that the high priest actually didn't have many mummies left, and no more than 20,000 of them could survive. Moreover, the energy of the gems used by the high priest to control the pyramid was almost exhausted, and the pyramid defense could only fire twice at most.

These are not critical. The key point is that the high priest has obtained the method to summon the gods. Once the high priest successfully summons the gods, he will be blessed by the gods. At that time, the high priest will obtain the power of gods and become invincible in the world. Then At that time, the high priest would fight back to Cairo and usurp the throne.

Seeing this, Abinus was extremely shocked. He did not expect that the high priest would have such ambitions and conspiracies, especially the coming of the gods. He had also heard from his ancestors about this matter. Every time a new pharaoh ascended the throne, there would be a coming of the gods. ceremony.

But that was tens of thousands of years ago. Ever since a rebellion in Egypt, the method for the descent of the gods had been lost. Unexpectedly, the high priest found it.

This time Abinus finally had a reason to return to the city, and he believed that the Pharaoh would not only not blame him, but would even reward him.

"Hurry up and order the whole army to set up camp and return to Cairo immediately!" Abinus said.

"Sir, isn't it safe to march at night?" the kobold asked doubtfully.

"Why is it unsafe? The military situation is urgent now. There is no delay. Let's set off quickly!" Abinus said angrily.

"Yes, sir!" The kobold quickly bowed and retreated.

Early the next morning, Abinus returned to Cairo. He didn't even bother to rest, so he hurried to the palace to see His Majesty the Pharaoh.

However, the Pharaoh hadn't gotten up at this time. Abinus was anxiously pacing back and forth at the door of the hall, looking up at the sun in the sky from time to time in order to estimate the time. It was not until the sun was three o'clock in the sky that the guard at the gate informed Abinus that it was okay. Enter to see His Majesty the Pharaoh.

Abinus didn't care about complaining and hurriedly entered the hall. He saw the pharaoh at this time, wearing a gorgeous robe and a golden crown on his head, sitting on the throne. However, he may have indulged too much at night and his face was not good-looking. , and a little sleepy.

Seeing that Abinus had come so early, he asked: "Abinus, have you come back victorious? Have you killed the damn high priest?"

"Your Majesty, the high priest was not killed." Abinus quickly bowed.

"Didn't he kill him? Did he capture him alive? That's right. How could such a heinous person be allowed to die so easily? I will cut him into pieces!" Pharaoh said through gritted teeth.

"Your Majesty, I couldn't catch the high priest either!" Abinus still shook his head.

"What! You dare to come back without completing the task I gave you. Come on, capture this bold rebel!" Pharaoh was furious, and without any explanation, he ordered his men to capture Abinus.

"Your Majesty, calm down, I have something important to report to you!" Abinus quickly bowed and said loudly.
