The mausoleum of Egyptian Princess Amunet is actually a huge underground cave.

It is not as majestic and huge as the pyramid of Pharaoh, but it looks particularly eerie and terrifying.

Luke entered first, followed by Dr. Henry and his "archaeological team".

Wolf King Lucian, as well as his compatriots, have now become dispensable and unimportant characters.

Because of the existence of Superman, the magical journey that was originally scary and full of dangers is changing into an outing and an outing.

Everyone looked relaxed and slid down the high-strength nylon rope.

The hollow cave filled with the sound of wind, emitting a shrill scream like the howling of ghosts and wolves.

"Mercury..."

Dr. Henry follows Luke, as if this way it feels safer.

A drop of turbid liquid hit his shoulder, slid down, and rolled into his palm.

Just like Tomb of Qin Shi Huang uses mercury to simulate rivers, lakes and seas, Ancient Egypt people also use a large amount of this chemical element called "mercury" when building tombs.

In their understanding, mercury can suppress the souls of the deceased and is also a means to prevent tomb robbers from breaking in.

Because it is neurotoxic and can harm the brain and nervous system.

Many tomb robbery teams enter the Pharaoh mausoleum. If they accidentally inhale too much mercury vapor, they will become insane and die.

This is also the reason for Shocker rumors such as "Pharaoh's Curse" and "Evil Spirit Seeking Life".

In that ignorant era, people often attached mysterious and bizarre explanations to unknown things that they did not understand well enough.

"The mercury drips from the top and falls into these holes."

Dr. Henry shined the flashlight on the ground, and at regular intervals, there were square holes similar to sewer entrances.

"This means that there is a complete pipeline system in the tomb of the Egyptian princess, and we can follow the direction to find the coffin."

As Luke listened, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He felt that Bo Jian Department was a tomb-robbing organization with rich experience in committing crimes.

Among the archaeological team members who came down, some arranged lighting equipment and some explored the terrain.

It seems that this is not the first time that they have carried out tomb robbing in the name of archeology.

What's even more shameful is that according to Dr. Henry, the harvest they get will eventually be handed over to the country and put into London's Natural History Museum - but that place originally belongs to the Bo Jian Department.

It's like the left hand is the right hand!

Luke couldn't help but sigh, when it comes to being shameless, capitalism is better.

"This is the front hall of the mausoleum. The mummy body of Ahmunet is inside."

I studied the huge statues and primitive simple murals for a while.

Dr. Henry rubbed his hands and pointed at a dark hole.

He had a hunch that this was a great discovery.

Luke's sight was not affected by the environment. He scanned through the thick rocks and determined the specific location of the Egyptian princess's coffin.

"Dagger of Set, is it in your hands?"

He turned around and asked.

That is a key prop.

As the designated Sorcerer Supreme, Luke's understanding of magic knowledge is not too bad, and he knows a little about the application and performance of contract spells and reincarnation rituals.

Set signed a contract with Egyptian Princess Amunet. The ruby-encrusted dagger is an important medium.

Select a suitable body, and then stab it into the body with the dagger.

Set can be resurrected in a human body and gain full divine power.

This is a trick to bypass the rules of the material world. In Luke's impression, the old devil Mephisto also did something similar.

The latter unites with a mortal and gives birth to an heir.

Then taking over that physical body and changing from father to son, he can naturally exert the full power of a Hell Lord in the material world.

Otherwise, every time you come to this world, you will be suppressed by the rules.

"We found the gem. It fell into the hands of Crusaders and was later placed in the coffin as a burial object."

Dr. Henry replied.

"During the Crusades period, Egypt was invaded. Maybe it was at that time that they obtained the ruby."

If Bo Jian Department hadn't discovered the ruby, we would have found some clues about this Egyptian princess.

Dr. Henry will not initiate this action, and will invite Werewolves to act as a bodyguard, leading to a series of subsequent events.

Luke frowned and continued to ask, "So, only Ahmunet himself knows where the dagger is?"

Dr. Henry nodded, otherwise he would not have thought of unsealing the coffin of the Egyptian princess.

Only the dagger and ruby combined into one can complete the final ritual.

Use monsters to fight monsters, this is the policy set by the Bo Jian Department when it was founded.

If you can study Death God Power thoroughly, or control Ahmunet, you can use it for yourself.

Bo Jian Department is a big step on the road to darkness.

What?

as a result of?

Nor can we expect a senior executive with serious psychological problems and an evil personality to make wise decisions.

"Judging from the structure of the tomb, we can guess that Ahmunet was imprisoned here as a sinner."

"A large amount of mercury was poured at the mouth of the well, suppressing the soul, making it impossible for her to rest in peace and reincarnate forever."

"Generally speaking, wherever the coffin is, there will be a dog-headed guard to warn intruders."

"But the direction these six watchers are looking at is the entrance of the mercury well. Their purpose is to suppress the dead mummy, not anything else."

Dr. Henry habitually conducts academic popularization, and finally concluded. "Underneath this is an evil soul that has endured thousands of years of darkness, suffering and torture, and is full of resentment."

After hearing this, the group of people from the Bo Jian Department all approached the location of Luke.

The latter's expression remained normal. He had even been to hell and negotiated terms with the old devil.

If any evil spirits or ghosts really appear in front of you, a set of physical demon slayers can directly save them and send them away.

"Take out the coffin."

Luke ordered.

Dr. Henry observed for a while and found the opened mechanism.

Boom!

Only a violent sound was heard, and the underground cave shook and shook.

A coffin covered in mottled rust slowly rose up and was pulled out of the mercury well mouth by chains.

Then there were densely packed camel spiders, which seemed to sense something abnormal and covered the rock wall like a black "carpet".

"Luckily it's not a scarab."

Luke curled his lips, that thing was standard equipment for Egyptian tombs.

Bio-Force Field suddenly opened up, blocking out the camel spider crawling over.

"Find a helicopter and pull the coffin up."

Dr. Henry is worthy of being a senior executive of the Bo Jian Department, and he can also get along well with Iraq, and he quickly got a helicopter.

The coffin used to seal Ahmunet finally saw the light of day after thousands of years of darkness.

Large swaths of Raven hovered in the air, seemingly attracted by some mysterious force, like gathering dark clouds.

"Set's power is beginning to work."

Dr. Henry looked solemn, Raven is a symbol of death and the messenger of death.

"Ahmunet completed the summoning ceremony and signed the contract. She has immortality and can only be sealed."

"It is estimated that he will be revived soon."

Luke doesn't care.

Let alone the dead Egyptian princess, even if Set appeared in front of him, it would not pose any threat.

The Egyptian god's own strength is probably similar to Dimensional Demon God.

Luke is really interested in the conceptual power of "death".

Although Set is only the Egyptian god of death and has no control over other realms.

What Asgard, Olympus, heaven, hell, everything is none of his business.

But gaining that power is equivalent to having a part of the "death" authority.

"I hope she can wake up soon and lead me to find the dagger."

Luke saw the sky full of yellow sand and thick smoke billowing on the horizon.

A huge sandstorm was heading towards the helicopter.

Set, who seems unable to come, wants to prevent Bo Jian Department from taking away Egyptian Princess Amunet's coffin.

"Your Excellency General, I will return to London."

Dr. Henry glanced at the coffin and felt a little frightened.

They landed at a nearby airport, where a transport plane stood ready to take off.

Luke Just as he was about to nod, the rusty coffin, wrapped with circles of chains, suddenly shook.

The sharp sound of nails scratching suddenly sounded.

Faintly, a woman's crying and shouting can also be heard.

"Leave him alone."

A member of the archaeological team with empty eyes leaned towards the coffin like a puppet, Luke stopped Dr. Henry.

The latter's idea was to bring Ahmunet back to London, and then conduct research to find out the whereabouts of the dagger.

But from Luke's point of view, they are all the same.

It seems to be easier to wake up the Egyptian princess as soon as possible.

The members of the archaeological team near the coffin seemed to be trapped in an illusion and their consciousness was taken away.

They spoke awkward and strange syllables and cut the dark chains wrapped around the coffin.

Legion Raven hovering in the mid-air is like a thick cloud covering the sky, blocking the blazing sunshine above.

A withered hand grasped the edge of the coffin.

The slender figure, wrapped in tattered cloth belts, slowly sat up.

The mummified Egyptian princess, Ahmunet, wakes up.

She turned her head somewhat mechanically, staring at everyone present with her dark eyes.

Before Ahmunet could speak to make the atmosphere even more terrifying, Luke said, "Princess, do you think I'm suitable?"

"Can you be Set's physical body walking in the world?"
