Chapter 172: Good News and Bad News (Please Collect and Recommend)
Changing bullets is a small matter. What is really amazing is the big hearts of these two people. →When the Americans saw the mummy for the first time, they were almost scared to pee their pants. Even if they fought back, they would shoot at the same time without any rhythm.
But what about these two old men? They are so steady!
After the two old men had fired a round, Hyde and Nemo came. It’s not that they are useless, but they are not experts in playing with guns. Hyde is pure meat, and Captain Nemo is more skilled in knife. After the two came, they were not afraid. They picked up the modified long-handled pistol and the 20-round Lee-Enfield short rifle in their hands and shot at the mummy.
The 20-round Lee-Enfield short rifle is a special type of gun, specially used for trench warfare. It has a fast firing rate, and all 20 bullets in one minute hit the mummy.
Captain Nemo's modified long-handled pistol has a more historical origin. Its shape is classical and gorgeous, but the things inside are very high-tech. It was modified by Captain Nemo himself, and it uses special rifle bullets with a 7mm caliber!
This thing should not be called a pistol, but a hand cannon. It is so powerful and has a terrible recoil. Only a tough guy like Captain Nemo dares to hold it with one hand. I don't know if Captain Nemo has any superpowers. His arm strength is really strong, and his hand is not broken.

That shot directly blew the mummy into two pieces, and a big hole was blown out of the ground under the mummy.
Kai likes this gun very much, no matter its appearance or power. It's a pity that this is Captain Nemo's private collection. He made it by himself, and there is only one in the world. Kai can only wait for Captain Nemo to make another one before it's his turn.
The mummy named Immorton was shot without getting anything. In the end, he had no choice but to turn into dust and disappear in the room.
The two Americans were dumbfounded.
If the two old men were awesome, then Captain Nemo was a god. It was the first time they saw someone shoot with such power with a pistol. The key was that Captain Nemo's arm was fine after the shot.
Soon, the soldiers next to the hotel were alarmed. When Alfred arrived with a group of soldiers, there was nothing left except the messy room.
Faced with this situation, Alfred happily gave the hotel enough compensation and asked the hotel to change their room. This time, Alfred planned to let the three Americans sleep in the living room and not let them out of sight.
When Kai came back, he found that the hotel was full of sentries and guards.
Kai came back this time with two people, an old man and a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe. The old man is fine, but the most important thing is that this middle-aged man doesn't look like a good person at first glance. He has tattoos on his face and looks fierce.
The soldiers naturally couldn't let such obvious extremists enter the hotel. In the end, it was Ah Fu's arrival that let them in.
"What's going on?" Kai was naturally curious about why the room was changed.
Then Lao Fu told Kai the news that the mummy was coming.
Before Kai had time to comment on this matter, the soldiers reported that they had caught a sneaky guy.
O'Connor jumped up as soon as he saw this guy.
"Benny! You bastard, you are still alive!"
O'Connor and Benny should be considered a pair of enemies. The two used to be best friends, but later they fell out. It is said that it was because Ben betrayed him. But Benny did not admit it, and did not think he was O'Connor's friend. He said that O'Connor would only bully him. Benny is a local. Although his character is questionable, he has an extraordinary talent for languages. He can basically speak a few words in any language. He can speak more than eight languages, including Chinese.
Although his Chinese accent is very strange, Kai can still understand it. Especially his sentence "Please bless me, Buddha" is very funny.
In short, O'Connor is very familiar with Benny, and he barely spent any effort to get his secrets out. Benny is a soft bone, and he will say anything if you just hit him twice.
But no one expected that Benny's revelations would be so shocking.
It turned out that when he ran to the end of the mausoleum, he was caught by Imhotep. At that time, he thought he was going to die, but he said a sentence in Hebrew in his nonsense. This language was spoken by slaves in ancient Egypt. (The ancient Hebrews were slaves of the ancient Egyptians until Moses led the Hebrews out of Egypt)
So Benny survived, and Imhotep needed a slave to help him. Imhotep promised to give him countless gold and silver treasures as a reward.
From Benny, he learned that if Imhotep wanted to be fully resurrected, he had to have a sacrifice. And the sacrifice was the unlucky ones who were cursed, the three American guys and Professor Allen. He needed to get the holy urn (the jar for the internal organs when making mummies) and their lives and blood from the four of them.
He took Burns' eyes and tongue for this reason.
In the spirit of being idle, O'Connor beat Benny again and continued to interrogate. It turned out that this guy had more.
In addition to the four Americans, Imhotep also wanted Evelyn!
He wanted to use Evelyn as a sacrifice to resurrect his lover - Ansunamu, the wife of Pharaoh Seti I three thousand years ago. Immorton had an affair with the pharaoh's wife, Ansuna (abbreviated), After being discovered, he murdered the Pharaoh, which led to him being "worm-eaten" - that is, he was put alive in a coffin, and then put scarabs in it, and then he was bitten to death very slowly by the insects.
A very romantic way to die.
But the sequelae are terrible. Just like now, once resurrected, it will harm the world.
"Since he wants Evelin and these four unlucky guys, it's easy to handle. Let's lead him directly to Hamna Tower and kill him there!"
Kai happily decided to use Evelin and the others as bait. Although the three Americans were not very willing, they didn't care. Evelyn was very enthusiastic, but she made O'Connor and her brother Jonathan so angry that they couldn't even hide.
But Evelin agreed, and Kai and the others didn’t seem that easy to talk to, so they could only risk their lives to accompany the gentleman.
"The most important thing now is to find Dr. Allen, Ah Fu! Don't you have any news yet?" Kai said.
"No... we found Dr. Allen's residence, but no one came back. Our people have already set up defenses nearby. Once he appears, we will bring him back immediately." Ah Fu does not look like a man who has just turned 20. A very calm and capable person.
"Well, maybe we should participate in this defense. After all, there is Gregory. If the Book of the Dead is still in Dr. Allen's hands, the Russian guy will definitely go to him."
As soon as Kai finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
The intelligence officer who had briefed them last time came, and with him came a mummy that had been carried in.
"We were a step late. This poor American was found by the mummy and Gregory at the same time. We wanted to save him, but..."
Needless to say, this unlucky guy was so lucky to meet Immorton and Gregory at the same time, which is considered a wonderful death. Neither party is easy to mess with.
"What about the Book of the Dead?" Kai asked.
"The good news is that the book was not taken by Gregory. The bad news is that the mummy got the book." The intelligence officer had a good sense of humor. "By the way, there is another piece of news that I don't know whether to call good or bad. The mummy and Gregory got into a fight over this book."
