Evelin got up from the ground and looked at Rorschach in front of her curiously.
"What on earth do you know? Why did you lead me here? You called me Nafediri from the beginning. Am I really her?"
Three questions came out of Evelin's mouth, and she desperately wanted to get an answer from Rorschach.
Rorschach did not answer directly, but told legends and stories.
"The ancient Egyptians believed that they would go to the afterlife after death. They believed that the body was the container of the soul, and that the soul would leave the body every night and come back in the morning. They also believed that the soul would be resurrected after death, and the body must be retained to keep the soul.
They had their own place to live, so they invented embalming and mummification. They believed that after a person died, Osiris would weigh his heart to judge whether he was good or evil, and then decided whether the soul would be resurrected or destroyed."
Evelyn said: "So I am the reincarnation of Nafediri?"
"Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
Evelin stood up, patted the sand on her body, and asked: "What do you want from me?"
"I want to know if there is Osiris in the underworld and if Anubis exists."
Fear made the team leader even more anxious. He dropped his archaeological tools, reached out to grab the wet mummy, and lifted it up with gritted teeth.
O'Connor thought carefully about Benny's words. Although Benny seemed wretched, timid, greedy for money, untrustworthy, and unjust, as long as you gave him money, he would really get things done for you.
No one spoke at the scene, they just looked at the team leader, hoping that the team leader would tell them what to do.
"No...it's just that anyone who wears the Bracelet of Death will be cursed. They must reach the Amshai Oasis within seven days to lift the curse."
"It's nothing, just death. Don't worry, you are the reincarnation of the Pharaoh's daughter, maybe Anubis will be lenient."
"It's already like this, how can I put it back together?"
O'Connor's words made Benny look at him in shock and asked unconfidently: "How do you know?"
Suddenly a wave of malice struck, and then disappeared in an instant.
Arson is the best way to disrupt order. Faced with the burning flames, the people who were originally hiding in the tent had no time to think about it and could only jump out of the ring of fire.
Evelin took out the bracelet and said doubtfully: "But I don't remember any of this at all. I only saw him fighting another woman before. I don't know why, I hate her..."
Benny was nowhere to be seen next to him. Benny only left O'Connor with his back retreating into the darkness.
One of the onlookers expressed what everyone was thinking. This mummy looked different, with wet and ferocious limbs, and a posture that wanted to roar, showing a completely different and weird look.
O'Connor has already found the location of the parasite. As long as there is no accident, it will be surgically removed as soon as he leaves.
"Does he look a little damp? Or did he just get stuffed in there?"
After many attempts, Evelin finally found the right direction and the projection became clear.
That is to say, only the gun-wielding guards can reluctantly obey his orders for the sake of gold. But after nightfall, no one wants to believe O'Connor. They will even avoid this place during patrols.
When he saw the Bracelet of Death, Ardais Benen blurted out the curse of the Bracelet of Death. The Scorpion Emperor predated Seti I by countless years.
The firewood in the firepit involuntarily erupted more sparks, and small ripples were heard in the hot tea next to the firepit.
"You are one of the few friends I have. Of course, you will also need to pay some small expenses. After all, it takes money to bribe some people."
Evelin did not answer Rorschach's question, but looked at the Death Bracelet that she brought out.
The desert nights are always bitingly cold, and the gun-toting guards are no longer in the mood to protect anyone. They gather under a city wall, relying on the city wall to resist the bone-chilling wind at night.
However, the camp was not without resistance. Those armed guards who were far away from O'Connor built a defense line based on a corner of the city wall. Here, they relied on their numerical advantage and used the weapons in their hands to barely block the cavalry offensive.
These warriors who have persisted for three thousand years are not like ordinary people. As a descendant of the Pharaoh's guard captain, Ardes Bey is well aware of all historical details and secrets.
After hearing this, Benny became sad and said, "Then what are you going to do? Do you need me to find a way to escape for you?"
Although he failed to seal Immortun again, he escaped unharmed and even snatched a sacrifice from Imogen's mouth.
For three thousand years, the Pharaoh Guards tried every means to prevent outsiders from coming to Hamnat.
Benny walked out of the shadows behind the rocks, shyly avoiding the sight of others, and came to O'Connor's side.
As soon as O'Connor moved his position, he heard the sound of horse hooves, followed by the galloping black-clad scimitar cavalry.
Hearing this, Evelin asked with a hint of fear: "What kind of curse is it?"
Evelin was no longer in the mood to argue with Rorschach. She was carried onto the train by the cats.
With such strength, who would believe that they relied on inheritance to persist to this day?
As night approached, the sarcophagus, which had been hewn for a whole day, was finally broken open. The thoughtful people opened the coffin, only to see a different kind of mummy.
After piecing together the stones of the coffin lid, the team leader looked at the traces of being forcibly clawed out from inside the coffin lid. Then he looked back at the ferocious wet mummy.
The hatred that has lasted for thousands of years will naturally not be eliminated so easily. Just like Immorton who was punished with insect bites.
An inexplicable dark wind blew by, disturbing the surrounding torches. A change in light made the originally moist mummy stare at them with his empty eyes.
"But what about O'Connor? He won't let us leave easily, especially after stuffing this thing back..."
O'Connor and Benny, who had participated in the war, looked at each other and understood that all these unusual signs were warning them of the impending danger.
Evelin looked at Rorschach and said: "I can't tell you the answer you want to know now. I just recalled some things. Maybe it can remind me of things before..."
Evelin held up the Death Bracelet and happily analyzed everything she saw.
Seeing that the team leader was taking action, the Americans hurriedly helped, wrapping the mummy in cloth and stuffing it into the place where they got the internal organs jar.
"But didn't you just say that you don't know whether the underworld exists or not?"
O'Connor threw away the branch in his hand and reached out to grab the shotgun beside him.
The team leader also showed his ruthlessness at this time and said: "Then let him shut up first!"
"The guards canceled their patrol tonight, and even the leader hid in his tent. This is already obvious!"
Various illusory scenes were projected from the Bracelet of Death, but they were all blurry. Evelin held up the Bracelet of Death as if searching for a signal on an old-fashioned television, constantly trying in all directions.
Rorschach said: "The former Seti I chose his daughter Nefediri to guard the Bracelet of Death. It belongs to you."
After repeated inspections, the team leader breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Pack your things as soon as possible, we will leave tomorrow. I always have a bad feeling here..."
"Maybe the curse doesn't exist either?"
The bad premonition in his heart was warning him. The leader threw out the rocks in his hands and hurriedly urged everyone: "Put him back! Bury it back again! Hurry!"
"Then find a way to put it back at the feet of the Anubis statue!"
"I know it! That's the Pyramid of Giza, and along this direction... it should be the Karnak Desert. There is the Karnak Temple in the desert, which is exactly the same as the projection shows!"
This night was destined to be full of worries. The Americans loaded their bullets in the tent and waited for the leader's order.
Three towering pyramids, then the desert and oasis, and then the temple in the desert.
Evelin picked up the Death Bracelet and put it on her right wrist without thinking.
"Benny! Go get someone... Shet!"
Everything O'Connor and Benny discovered before was a sign that the cavalry was coming.
After opening the box, Evelin stroked the bracelet and said, "I feel like it's calling me..."
"O'Connor! I've got new news for you!"
After watching all the projections, Evelin was still excited, but seeing Rorschach's unspeakable expression, she asked: "What's wrong? Do I have any questions?"
For example, when dealing with Immorton, he dared to lead the Pharaoh Guards to face the newly resurrected Imogen. This has to make people wonder whether the Pharaoh Guards have any hidden methods.
Looking at the controller of the Plaka Parasite in his hand, O'Connor tested the controller with excruciating pain in the uninhabited desert these past few days and figured out the basic method of use.
"Are they ready to take action?"
O'Connor left a mark on Benny and guided outsiders to come. The deaths of coolies and hired workers can basically be attributed to him. Even if he persuaded some armed guards to surrender, those who died in the crossfire
, must also be counted on him.
These cavalrymen held torches in their hands, filed in through the gaps in the city wall, and threw their torches at every tent they saw.
O'Connor looked at Benny and said, "Are you so kind?"
With the help of the horse, the scimitar cuts the body with inertia, easily cutting the person in half.
After hiding the controller, O'Connor picked up a branch and threw it into the fire pit. He said without looking back: "Stop hiding it, Benny!"
This was the North African desert where a World War had just occurred. Without the rapid firepower of an organized team, groups of cavalry were enough to overwhelm everything. The dead souls in the Sinai Desert can testify to O'Connor's judgment.
On O'Connor's side, he was sitting alone by the fire pit, with the shotgun beside him.
Just when O'Connor was thinking about giving Benny a sum of gold and secretly escaping from Hamnet under the cover of night, a series of subtle vibrations made O'Connor's eyes widen.
How can you not hate it! Your father married a concubine who is about the same age as you. Then this concubine cheated on your father's sacrifice and killed your father by the way.
One of the most important responsibilities of the Pharaoh Guards guarding Hamnat is to prevent the former sinner Immorton from returning to the world.
For Alvin, they were waiting for the Pharaoh Guards.
O'Connor was also happy about this. The secrets about him were so terrifying that once people discovered them, they would treat him as a curse.
The Pharaoh Guards were lurking in all levels of Egypt, and even the curator of the museum where Evelin worked was a member of them. Later, when they fought against Anubis' undead army, there were more than a million members scattered all over the mountains and plains.
For Evelyn, she must rush to Karnak Temple as soon as possible before she will receive the next prompt from the bracelet.
As soon as he arrived at a collapsed stone pillar, O'Connor relied on it as a bunker and never stopped holding the shotgun in his hand.
The trench broom lived up to its nickname. Each shot could take away a cavalryman, and sometimes even injure the horse under the cavalry's crotch, causing the painful horse to create more chaos in the camp.
Neither the black cavalry nor the residents in the camp had any intention of leaving the other alive. The blood seeped down the sand, creating a bloody sand sculpture, which was then trampled to pieces by horse hooves and boots.
Hanji held up the telescope, looked at the killings in the camp, and asked Alvin, "Do you want to start the test now?"
