After her heart was reset by the wolf-headed man, the woman ended her sluggish state.

But then, the two Skeleton Soldier standing behind the woman instantly lifted her up, walked to the cliff and threw her down.

Falling into a giant 'crater' that emits a strange red light, the consequences can be imagined.

Immediately afterwards, the wolf-headed man did not stop weighing.

The teenage boy who was behind the woman was forced forward by Skeleton Soldier, and his heart was taken out and weighed in the same way.

The heart is heavier than the feather.

Seeing this, the wolf-headed man immediately picked up the heart and threw it onto the 'bloody pile' aside.

John Through the far vision function, he discovered that the pile of bloody objects were countless... beating hearts.

The wolf-headed man walked up to the dull young man, opened his mouth and spit out hot flames.

The young man was wrapped in flames and burned, but he did not make any struggle.

Within a few seconds, the flames burned the young man, whose heart was heavier than a feather, to "clean" flesh, tissue and internal organs, leaving only a complete skeleton.

In the end, the young man turned into a Skeleton Soldier and left here under the leadership of the mummy.

.

See what's happening in the distance.

Karl, who was lying on the city wall sniping like a sniper, couldn't help but sigh to John, "John, those might really be Anubis among Egyptian mythology.

Although there are some discrepancies in the wolf-headed human body, it will also use a scale to measure the human heart..."

"Not sure." John still said quietly:

"Twelve strange creatures with wolf heads and human bodies were visually observed. Counting the 'Hell Rift' that resembles an active volcano, there are a total of thirteen anomalies that led to this eruption."

"Thirteen..." Mylon, who was on guard behind the two of them, turned his head and complained, "This number is unlucky."

"Eh?" At this time, Karl seemed to have thought of something.

And suggested. "John, Athena are gods in the Greek world. Do you think she will understand those 'Anubis'?"

"It's possible." John nodded.

"Master Chief." Cortana reported in everyone's communication:

"I have recorded everything we saw, and I also conducted a simple analysis of the 'Hell Rift'.

It was found that the temperature around the crack was as normal, averaging around 27°, which is definitely not the crater temperature we know.

Judging from the weighing behavior of the creature with a wolf head and human body, it is similar to Anubis.

The woman with a heart lighter than a feather just now must have passed its test and was sent to the world after death, 'Duat'.

From this, I surmise that 'Hell Rift' should be the entrance to another world."

"..." After hearing Cortana's analysis, the blue team fell into a brief silence.

Then John stood up, walked towards the city wall and said softly, "No matter what, we must stop this kind of abnormal phenomenon.

Let's leave here first to meet up with the Major and the others, then withdraw from the barrier area together, and upload all the data we detected to the Infinity."

"Yes."(x2)

Mylon and Karl replied and followed John away from the city wall, preparing to leave this abandoned ancient city.

The three Sparta once again used Thor's Hammer and their own physical fitness to quickly run south.

During this period, with the assistance of Cortana, we successfully contacted the Warthog motorcade that was five kilometers away.

Soon after.

A Warthog convoy was parked in a concave area between two sand dunes. The mad tooth sharks led by Michel were guarding the convoy, while several paratroopers were on guard high up in the dunes.

The people who stayed in the vehicle were all civilians, and the police and UNSC soldiers also followed the Mad Tooth Shark to guard the vehicle.

As for the blue team's Mylon and Karl, they were also standing on the sand dunes on both sides, assisting the paratroopers in guarding together.

John, Michel and a group of fanatic shark squad leaders stood in front of the first vehicle of the convoy, Warthog, discussing the retreat route.

"Major." John looked at Michel and asked quietly:

"During our separate operations, what new discoveries did you make?"

"Yes." Michel took out a paper map from the pocket on his waist.

Then Michel spread out the map, placed it on the hood of Warthog, and smoothed it out.

John and a group of squad leaders gathered around Michel, focusing on the map.

I saw the scope of the barrier area marked on this map, as well as the location of their convoy, and the mark with an x drawn by Michel with a red marker.

(Picture)

Michel's right hand pointed at the red x in turn, and explained to John and everyone, "Everyone.

According to the survivors we rescued, there are a large number of Hell Guards gathered here, here, and here.

That is the Ghost Soldiers we dealt with before.

Moreover, there are still a large number of UNSC and local police officers in these towns who are resisting, and our agents are very likely among them.

However, due to the complete loss of communication, they were unable to receive support.

If we move south along the Nile River, we will encounter a large number of Ghost Soldiers, as well as armed forces that are still resisting."

"You can't go south." John shook his head and said:

"Although heading south can support friendly forces and rescue ordinary humans, it will take at least eight hours to get out of the barrier area."

"Indeed." Michel also deeply agreed.

He added, "If we retreat toward the southwest, we will have to cross a 400-kilometer desert, and we can't confirm whether there is really no Ghost Soldiers stationed there.

Then the only quickest direction is east, to the border between Israel and Egypt, which is about a hundred kilometers away.

If everything goes well, the barrier area can be evacuated within an hour, but...

This route is too close to Cairo, and you may be chased by those large wolf-headed men.

Master Chief, what do you think?"

"Xiangdong." John said without hesitation, "It is our top priority to inform Infinity of the information we have as soon as possible."

"Haha." Hearing this, Michel couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile, "I had already guessed that Master Chief you would say this, so let's evacuate to the east."

"Hmm."

John nodded without a smile, then held the Plasma Rifle in his hand and ordered in a low voice:

"Major, the blue team is in charge of the rear of the convoy. You and Shark Company protect the people following you."

"Yes." Michel and a group of monitors saluted one after another.

Then everyone began to act according to John's orders.

The paratroopers of the Berserk began to board the vehicle, allowing civilians to gather in the center of the convoy, while they were at both ends of the convoy.

As the commander second only to John, Michel was also protected by paratroopers in the middle of the convoy.

On the last Warthog, the driver is John, the gunner of Gauss Cannon is Mylon, and the co-pilot is Karl holding Gauss Sniper Rifle.

"Click!"

Karl pulled the trigger, Vision glanced at her comrades and smiled, "It's time to return to the Infinity."

"Ah." John nodded silently, and then ordered in the communication, "Let's go."

"Buzz-."

With the unique low noise of Hydrogen Engine, the Warthog fleet began to drive quickly towards the predetermined route.

"Hey!" As the gunner Mylon, he was still adjusting the atmosphere and shouted:

"No matter if it is hell or not, I will send you back!"
