Chapter 51 [The mantis stalks the cicada!]
Midnight.
A travel boat on the Nile River was suddenly attacked by a group of people wearing night clothes.
They approached quietly through the dinghy and raft.
When they were discovered, they had already boarded the ship in large numbers and killed everyone they saw without mercy!
Suddenly gunfire broke out.
The shouts, cries, noises and killings of innocent people broke through the sky.
Flame and thick smoke rose from every corner of the cruise ship.
Perhaps because of the appearance of Zheng Zha and the others, the number of people going to the City of the Dead soared, so the number of Pharaoh Guards who came to attack them this time also soared.
There are hundreds of people!
In chaos.
Zheng Zha and his group, with their physiques generally two or three times higher than ordinary people, also have two ‘life harvesters’, Ling Dian and Zhao Yingkong.
It took half an hour to successfully repel hundreds of attacking men in black.
A small number of men in black were killed by Zheng Zha and his party.
Among them, Zhao Yingkong, a little lolita with the space treasure 'z-cup bra wrap', killed more than ten people in one go. Those people all had blood holes in their chests, which were obviously directly pierced through the heart. die.
Moreover, they all held guns before they died, but were injured from the front, which is enough to show that Zhao Yingkong was powerful.
Others were killed by Gauss guns and high-tech silenced pistols.
But if you kill a thousand enemies, you will suffer eight hundred losses.
[One of your teammates dies, and 2000 reward points are deducted. The current Central Continent team points: -2, the horror movie is over, and the reward points are negative! Obliterate! 】
Another newcomer died in the chaos, which is inevitable.
Under the hail of bullets, these newcomers who had just entered were not even as good as those black-robed soldiers, but knowing that another newcomer died still cast a layer of gloom in the hearts of Zheng Zha and his party.
"No, we have to leave here."
Zheng Zha was very upset. Before he was dismissed from the Indian team, two newcomers had already died. He gritted his teeth.
I found that the smoke on the boat was getting bigger and bigger, and the flames started to break out, so I knew I had to leave.
Zheng Zha found O'Connor.
He must protect O'Connor's life, otherwise the mission will directly fail.
"Can you still remember where the shore is?"
O'Connor was stunned: "What do you mean... Of course I don't! No."
Just listen to a pop.
O'Connor was thrown directly under the boat by Zheng Zha and fell into the dark Nile River.
Then Evelin and her brother were also thrown into the water by Zheng Zha and the others.
Looking at the hero and heroine who fluttered in the water and finally hugged O'Connor, other teammates also jumped in one after another.
Zheng Zha was at the end to ensure the safety of everyone. Just as he was about to jump down, he found that his arms sank.
"Zhan Lan?"
Zhan Lan, who stayed at the end, smiled at Zheng Zha: "Let's go together."
With the soft fragrance in his arms, Zheng Zha's body tensed up. He had no time to say anything and jumped directly into the river. At this point, they broke away from the sinking cruise ship and swam all the way to the shore.
No more than a quarter of an hour.
The cruise ship behind me turned into a blazing torch!
Very visible in the dark.
At this moment, with the help of the burning travel boat.
Zheng Zha unexpectedly discovered that on a small hill on the other side, there was a figure standing on a high place, looking this way.
Is he just showing off?
Zheng Zha stopped swimming towards the shore and rubbed his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Zhan Lan has been staying in Zheng Zha's arms, quietly holding the kitten, treading water, noticing Zheng Zha stopped, and asked.
It's a pity that her physical fitness is not as good as four times that of Zheng Zha, and she can't see the black shadow on the opposite hill at all.
“I feel like we have been watched by a pair of invisible eyes all the time.”
Zheng Zha’s tone was serious. He trusted his intuition. One time it was a misunderstanding, two times it was an illusion, but what about the three or four times?
At this moment.
Zheng Zha discovered that in the dark night sky, there was a white vulture with a wingspan of at least three or four meters wide.
Went to the direction of the black shadow standing on the top of the hill looking this way.
It is a white vulture. Zheng Zha knew the scientific name and had an idea in his mind.
That white vulture, could it be the one that I failed to shoot down at midnight a few days ago!
Just when Zheng Zha frowned.
Evelin also made a noise over there, and a lot of the archaeological equipment she carried, along with her documents, were washed away by the current.
The woman's chattering noise made Zheng Zha unable to think carefully until he tried to look at the mysterious black shadow on the opposite side.
Nothing can be seen anymore.
But this time.
Zheng Zha is sure! They must have been targeted by something, perhaps the Pharaoh's escort for this attack.
Although in the movie only the high priest Immorton seems to have extraordinary spellcasting abilities.
But who can be sure that the Pharaoh Guards, who have been silently guarding the City of the Dead, do not have any extraordinary power.
It would be terrible if they really continue to face each other.
Zheng Zha quickly gathered everyone together, explained his speculation, and asked everyone to be more vigilant in the future.
Three days passed in a flash.
In addition to the three days on the tourist boat, after a week of long journey, everyone was a little tired and couldn't stand the fatigue of the journey.
But when they saw the magnificent pyramid appearing in the desert from a distance.
Everything – it’s all worth it!
“Ouch!!!”
“We have found the City of the Dead!!!”
Zheng Zha and his party cheered.
Ride a camel and follow the steps of the energetic O'Connor, all the way to the foot of this legendary pyramid.
Standing in front of the tall and eye-catching pyramids and ruins.
O'Connor pulled the reins of the camel, controlled the camel to turn in a circle, turned around, smiled at everyone, and coughed.
"Gentlemen and ladies, please allow me to solemnly introduce to you Hamna Tower - the City of the Dead!"
Evelin and her brother Jonathan both looked happy.
But Evelin was happy about the research value of this city of the dead, while Jonathan was happy about the gold that had been buried in it for fifty years. silver jewelry.
Unfortunately, uninvited guests also arrived shortly afterwards - a group of American expedition teams.
“These guys, they are not adventurers at all, they are just a group of robbers. They will destroy all the cultural relics.”
Evelin originally wanted to take a rest, but seeing The other American expedition team couldn't sit still.
Find O'Connor and Zheng Zha and ask them to enter the City of the Dead directly without rest.
Zheng Zha also shook his head in his heart, saying that he is a robber, but he doesn't think you are very noble.
But one is robbing money and the other is robbing cultural relics. There is nothing to despise the other.
But Zheng Zha naturally would not say it directly. He thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement.
Later.
Zheng Zha and his party met privately to discuss the next plan.
“It’s been calm these days, but I think this may be the prelude before the storm.” Zhan Lan said first.
Zheng Zha nodded in approval.
“I think we shouldn’t set up defenses outside and continue to wait for the plot. It’s a waste of time.”
“It will probably take a long time for them to dig out, so I suggest that we follow them directly after a while. .”
"One, keep an eye on O'Connor, knock him out and take him away if necessary."
"Two, get the Black Book of the Dead and try to control the time of Immorton's resurrection in our own hands."
"Everyone, if you have any questions, you can ask them now."
