Chapter 498 A Corpse Should Look Like a Corpse
The white-haired black-spotted dog stopped at the edge of the mist.
It narrowed its eyes and stared ahead: "The Dog City is imitating the underworld, but this taste is not right."
The underworld is the end point of the death flow of countless worlds.
The wise insect can feel that strange turbulence.
If an individual dies, this flow will unfold towards it - it is like a higher-dimensional principle that can sneak into the rule castle of thousands of worlds.
The talking dog is called Haro.
The wise insect can't see the truth at all.
It only knows that this is the assistant appointed by Yao Shen, from the underworld.
"Look at my eyes and act."
"You are the leader, I am only responsible for dealing with the dead."
Haro said, and stepped into the mist.
Stepping into the other side of the world, its body suddenly changed, twisting into a strange shape with a trident-shaped head.
Haro's limbs kept twisting, between multi-legged and soft, and his whole body was in a deep and undetectable darkness.
The six eyes on its three heads showed a kind of empty paleness, but its body surface was entangled with some slowly creeping bloody lines. These blood lines were like flowing and spreading fire, and also like some cracked wounds with strands of blood.
Xiaozhi had a strange feeling.
Obviously, Haro was right in front of him, but its body was empty. It abandoned the body that was condensed by matter before, and dispersed and expanded itself, connecting with something invisible.
Is this a powerful existence of high dimension?
Xiaozhi was secretly shocked.
"Great, you are finally here! This is..."
Charles, the commander of the undead warrior, came over quickly. When he saw Haro, he froze in place as if frozen, and couldn't say a word.
"Not an enemy?"
One of Haro's three heads cast an inquiring look.
Xiaozhi quickly said: "This is a partner, his name is Charles, and he is the ambassador of the scarab to connect with us."
"Oh."
Haro turned his head.
Charles trembled for a while, and finally resumed his activities.
He looked at the strange black and red existence with a look of horror: "Who is this?"
Xiaozhi briefly introduced.
For this Dog City team, Zhichong is the captain and commander-in-chief appointed by Yaoshen, and the three saints have their own abilities. Only Harrow is special, and is a friendly helper.
"Your Majesty is dealing with the bodies of the rioters in the west of the city. If you don't mind, let's go directly there."
Charles led a few people all the way to the western front.
On the way, he told the latest battle situation.
"Today, the sun boat of Kebli awakened a group of dead gods and monsters. They are building altars, calling and praying to the ancient evil [Terrible] Apophis."
"Apophis is second to [Original Chaos], and his divinity is stronger than that of [Lord of Strength] Set. Unlike the Lord of Strength who is both good and evil, Apophis is a pure demon of destruction. He is keen to break all order and integrity. He is the embodiment of chaos, madness and sin."
"As the sun boat continues to appear, the gods who were buried in the past are resurrected one by one in the form of the dead. Among them, there are many who worship the evil main god and the crazy Forgotten. If these beings are awakened, or cause the evil god to descend on Dog City. Then this place will fall into endless chaos and war."
Charles said heavily: "We must end this war as soon as possible."
...
When Xiaozhi arrived at the front line, the battle was over.
The wide and long street in the west was full of petals of red spider lilies, destroyed stone pillars, monuments and broken unknown substances. There were so many fragments and cracks mixed together that it was difficult to tell which were corpses and which were tombs and bricks.
The undead warriors buried their companions, although they could only find a small number of relatively intact bodies. Even the survivors were missing limbs and were clumsily cleaning the battlefield.
The mummy incarnated by Menes squatted on the ground, its face replaced by a large black scarab, and there was a dismembered monster on the ground.
The original pharaoh was holding a flail stick and looking at the spoils at his feet.
Charles stepped forward quickly and reported: "Your Majesty, the Yao tribe reinforcements have arrived."
Menes turned his huge head.
Xiaozhi showed it a humble but polite smile: "Your Majesty, we are here on the orders of Lord Yao, and hope to help."
Menes' eyes swept across the three holy wishes behind him and stopped at the grotesque Cerberus.
Harrow's six eyes looked at the pharaoh.
"The power of the orthodox underworld... Cerberus, the gatekeeper of the underworld?"
"Control the dead? The power of the Curse Clan is indeed magical."
The two sides commented on each other.
Facing Cerberus, the scarab beetle Menis showed a cautious respect: "Come and take a look at this corpse."
"Okay."
Harrow walked to the huge corpse on the ground and observed it carefully.
Xiaozhi noticed that the monster lying on the ground was very strange.
It has a huge and thick snake-like body, with black ring-shaped patterns on the thick yellow skin, and the whole body shows a lifelike fullness.
Under the head of this snake monster grows a green beard like a bush, which is hard and crosses each other, concentrated near the chin of the snake head.
Further down the body of the snake monster also has red wide bird claws, a total of three pairs in front and back.
This snake with a beard and bird claws has two holes for eyes, and a strange smile appears on its wide head. Wisps of black air come out of its body, like black smoke rising after being burned.
Intelligent insects have never seen this scene in the abyss.
The only thing it can be sure of is that the level of this basilisk is not low, and it can feel the remaining surging power in this body.
"Resent the guilty people?"
Harrow lowered his head to identify it. Its trident-like head skillfully tore open the basilisk's skin.
There was a sound of gnawing and chewing in Xiaozhi's ears.
After a moment, Harrow smacked his lips: "This smell is right, it is resentment of the sinners. Those who refused to repent in the underground curse would turn into this. Later, they were brought in by [The Horrible] Apophis. The Seventh Kingdom has become His most loyal supporters and believers... I have investigated and interrogated several people in the underworld, and none of this group of people told the truth."
"This is the first time I have seen a resentful sinner who can reach the level of a god. This guy is somewhat famous in the Seventh Kingdom."
"I have to taste it again to confirm its identity."
With that said, Harrow gnawed at the corpses of the resentful sinners.
The sound of broken bones and flesh being torn and chewed was particularly harsh in the quiet environment at this moment.
"...It's confirmed. His name is Neff, and he used to be Apophis' charioteer in the Seventh Kingdom. No wonder he is very powerful."
Harrow spat out a sharp bone.
"As expected of Cerberus."
Scarab Menes sighed: "I didn't expect that Yao could even call us. Is he the god of the underworld?"
Harrow said calmly: "I only come here to deal with the affairs of the dead. If you are interested in the underworld, you'd better go and see it yourself."
Xiaozhi originally wanted to come out to smooth things over, but he immediately discovered that neither Harrow, who was talking, nor Menis, who was in trouble, cared.
The status of both parties is at least equal.
This surprised Xiaozhi.
It has dealt with scarabs many times in the past. The other party behaved very politely and was polite to him, but it was more about the respect and attitude of the god Yao behind him.
But Harrow was different. It was his first time here, but the scarab quickly showed a subtle caution.
What was it that Menis noticed that he didn't see?
Xiaozhi racked his brains and couldn't think of it.
"Anubis is the god of funerals, and there are extremely obvious traces of imitating the underworld here. When I came here, I noticed that there was a dry river bed outside the Dog City. It should be an attempt to imitate the Styx. But it would have to be so precise to imitate. As for the huge regular weaving flow, if the main gods of the entire Egyptian mythology lineage participate, it may be possible to create a tributary and connect to the Styx. "
"But from the current point of view, Anubis should have failed. That's why this place shrank from a small underworld to a city of tombs."
Harrow looked around: "This transformation is very clever."
"Let's talk about how to deal with the solar ship."
Menis brought the topic back: "What do you think we should do?"
"Simple, take down Kebuli and control the sun ship. Otherwise, Dog City will never be at peace." Harrow's six white eyes looked around.
"It's difficult."
The scarab tentacles on Menes' face swayed slightly, and it looked at the sky: "Khebli is riding the "Morning", one of the three solar ships. It appears for a short time, and its own "Light of Recovery" will shine instantly. The whole dog town.”
"I tried to shoot it down many times, but failed. Khebri itself is the incarnation of divinity when the sun rises, and its power will be greatly enhanced when the sun ship sails."
“The combination of the two makes it hard for me to beat, and with the short duration of the ‘early morning’ sailing, it’s even harder in that short window of time…”
"I come."
Harrow said, "Send me on the sun boat and leave the rest to me. I'll take care of it."
Menis hesitated for a moment: "If possible, please try not to destroy Kebuli's body."
"no problem."
…
morning.
A ray of dawn appeared in the sky.
A small dot appeared in the center of the orange-gold sun that was rising and getting brighter in the sky.
The demigod [Thundering Eagle Wings] Ketchikan has transformed into a giant bird, flying towards the sun at high speed with Harrow. The army of crows followed their master, but they had become indistinguishable dots.
The wise insect narrowed his eyes and finally saw the rumored solar boat.
It slowly sailed out from the center of the sun, turning from blurry strips and traces into a grass boat sailing across the sky.
The sun boat has a bow and stern like an aquiline hook, a mast and a sail, and a broad leaf-like roof on the top, which emits a golden-red light as if it is burning in the sun.
Ketchikan hits the sun boat hard!
At that moment, the sun suddenly flashed crazily, forcing Xiaozhi to close his eyes.
When it opened its eyes again, it saw Ketchikan burning all over and falling from the sky like a meteor. The crow army flew anxiously around it, but did not dare to get close.
The demigod fell straight from the sky, causing a dull tremor on the ground, and the undead warriors quickly went to rescue him.
Failed?
Xiaozhi's heart skipped a beat.
It noticed that the tall mummy next to it was still staring into the sky, with black beetles covering its facial features, showing no emotion.
The scarab is just a sculpture staring into the sky like a sun ship.
"This is impossible……"
It made a sound that sounded like an exclamation and confusion on its face.
The wise bug saw that the bow of the sun boat suddenly turned around and suddenly sailed from the sky to the ground. The papyrus boat soon hit the ground, raising a lot of dust.
The scarab beetle Menis strode towards the crash site.
Xiaozhi followed him.
A large pit with a very wide radiation range was knocked out at the landing site. Except for the spider-web-like cracks in the pit, there was no other abnormality.
In the center of the pit was Kepri, who was facing down. At this time, he was motionless among the rubble and turned into a dead body.
The sun boat disappeared.
And the black and red underworld monster Haro spit out a white mist from his mouth: "Put it away, don't let it wake up and run around again. After all, it was once a famous god, and its corpse should look like a corpse."
Won?
Captured Kepri?
Xiaozhi was excited.
As expected of the strong helper of the underworld sent by Lord Yao, he solved the problem here with one move!
No wonder Master Maocao has been emphasizing that we are just auxiliary... the main force is Mr. Harrow!
Beside him, a wisp of spell appeared on the black beetle on Menis's face, showing a rare emotional fluctuation: "You are not an ordinary Cerberus."
"You are a soul torturer!"
