Infinite Horror: The Strongest Zhongzhou Team
Chapter 470 The World in the Story, and the Story in the World
Jonathan, Evelyn, and O'Connor looked at each other and said in unison:
"Nothing much, just the one from your East who almost unified the world."
After saying this, the three of them looked strange.
It seems that some bad memories were recalled.
Zheng Zha, Li Xiao and others were stunned after hearing what they heard.
Li Xiao hurriedly asked:
"Then why is this still Britain and not some Eastern colony?"
"To be honest, I really thought that after this visit, places like Egypt and the United Kingdom could be renamed."
O'Connor shook his head:
"Ten years ago, that guy did conquer a lot of places, but he retreated afterwards."
"And then an international treaty was signed, and the war finally stopped."
"As for what happened afterwards, we don't know."
The other three locals also shook their heads as if to indicate that they had no idea about the situation.
After all, they are just ordinary adventurers.
A librarian.
The leader of an ancient tribe.
But at this time Jonathan suddenly raised his hand:
"I seem to know a little bit, but it may not be the news you want."
Seeing Zheng Zha and the others nod, Jonathan said:
"I can confirm that the entire ancient Eastern country has adopted a policy of isolation since a year ago, with no one allowed to enter or leave."
"Something big seemed to have happened up there, and then all messages were cut off from the outside."
The people who heard this looked at each other.
Xiao Honglu frowned even more fiercely.
"Only a force that can rival his can stop the war, and the existence that can fight against the Dragon Emperor..."
Then Xiao Honglu shook his head and said:
"Forget it, Scorpion King and Hamunatta are more important."
"If we have time at the end, we can go and have a look. It might be an unexpected gain (side story)."
Hearing this, Zheng Zha, Li Xiao and others nodded.
He simply ignored the confused Cheng Xiao and the two newcomers.
Let’s get back to the topic.
"Where's the time?"
"Does the bracelet have any clues?"
Xiao Honglu looked at Eric.
The little guy glanced at his mother secretly, and then slowly said:
"Yes, sixty days."
"But if I don't enter the Amshe Oasis at sunrise on the fifty-third day, I will die!"
"Then if I don't kill the Scorpion King and send his army of death back to hell within the remaining seven days, I will die too!"
People who heard the news had different reactions.
O'Connor, the father, and Evelyn, the mother, stood up in shock and panic.
The senior member of the Zhongzhou team muttered "What a terrible Lord God" in his heart.
Obviously, there is no hidden requirement of fifty-three days in the main mission of the Lord God.
It can be said that if Xiao Honglu hadn't asked it, it would have been another big pit.
But now the second phase of the main quest has been clarified.
That is to kill the Scorpion King within seven days after arriving at Amshe.
"Sixty days???"
"No, fifty-three days?"
"If you can't make it in time, you will die!"
"Walter, Eric, why did you say it now!!!"
O'Connor's roar startled everyone.
As a father, O'Connor felt his blood boiling at this moment. After all, his son's life had started to count down from this moment on.
As a father, how could he not be anxious?
But in the next moment, O'Connor calmed down inexplicably.
"Well, sixty days is not a problem. It's enough time for us to look for clues."
In a corner where the characters in the story couldn't see him, Zhang Heng let out a long sigh and put down his raised hand.
Li Xiao gave him an appreciative look.
For ordinary people, the effect of the Twelve Emotional Stress Array is no less than that of a powerful sedative.
Calm O'Connor and Evelyn let go of their confused son and quickly entered thinking mode. They said quickly:
"It's too late to go to the airport now. Let's wait until daybreak, Zheng Zha. Then we can set off together."
"The first location is the Pyramids of Giza, which should have direct flights to nearby cities, and it would only take more than five hours to get there from the UK."
Evelin also nodded and said calmly:
"Yes, although there is a time limit, I believe you will find a way."
"Let's do our best to be good hosts tonight. After all, we can't take gold for nothing."
"At least I'll treat you to a meal in this museum."
Evelin said, actually still in the mood to make tea.
The heroine was seen skillfully taking out the tea from Oriental Packaging from the desk in the hall.
Zhang Heng felt a little embarrassed at the end, because he accidentally made the parents seem too calm.
Just when Eric looked at his parents with confusion, questioning whether he was his biological son.
Evelyn started to boil water with an alcohol lamp and said:
“It’s a shame that the British Museum’s job is going to be ruined, and they’ve been let go.”
Evelin turned around and asked curiously:
"Zheng Zha, do you know who they are?"
"You know, it's not easy to be the director of the British Museum. He actually gave up just like that."
"And he's been hiding from me and Eric for such a long time."
"I can only say that the goal is not small."
Before Zheng Zha and the others could answer, a voice rang out.
"They should be a group of descendants who are committed to being loyal to the Scorpion Emperor, also known as the Scorpion King."
"Although the Scorpion King's rule over the world was very short, it is undeniable that he was once the ruler of Egypt."
"The Scorpion King led his army back to Hell, but there should be a part of him left behind."
"Whenever the Year of the Scorpion comes, they will appear before the world."
"Just like we are descendants of Pharaoh's guards."
"Of course, they could also be the descendants of the monks of Imhotep."
"After all, they also call Imhotep their master."
Adebei and Cheng Xiao walked over from behind a statue in the museum.
The two of them were holding a large bag of food.
Adeb placed the food and drinks on the stone table in the center of the museum.
This time he looked at Zheng Zha and the others seriously:
"My friends from ten years ago, before the adventure began, I had a question. The mysterious East is just like the mysterious you."
"Can you tell me where you heard the story of the Scorpion King?"
"I don't believe that this information was leaked by our guard clan."
"Or maybe it was a dream like Evelyn's."
While Ad was answering questions, Evelyn, O'Connor, and even Jonathan and Eric looked over.
Because their reappearance ten years later was too suspicious.
Whether it is time, or their own appearance, condition and ability.
It's all so unbelievable.
The senior members of the Zhongzhou team looked at each other.
Finally, Zheng Zha spoke. He sat on the mahogany chair that was moved from the hall and said with a smile:
"In fact, if this were our world, we would never have told you so much."
"Or reveal any information."
"But now, it doesn't matter, and I can tell you most things without being punished."
"………so."
"You should have guessed it."
"Yes, we are not from this world." "We are from another world, ten years ago in Hamunatta. It's not that we don't want to say goodbye, but we have completed our mission and have to leave."
"So in the end, we will just disappear right in front of you."
"To be honest, we were caught off guard at the time."
"It's always been a pity that I didn't say hello to you properly."
Jonathan and Eric were both very surprised when they heard this.
On the contrary, O'Connor and Evelyn did not show any surprise.
Evelin was calm and composed. She poured a cup of boiling tea from the glass pot for each member of the Zhongzhou team.
Then he took a sip slowly.
O'Connor said:
"In fact, we roughly guessed it when you disappeared from our sight outside the mausoleum."
"Then we didn't hear from you for several years, so we thought maybe you weren't from this world."
"After all, with your abilities, it is impossible for you to remain unknown in this world."
Evelin finished her drink, her face showing unconcealed curiosity:
"So you are the ones who came up from below?"
"Or someone coming down from above?"
Seeing this scene, Zheng Zha was stunned for a moment, smiling and waving his hands repeatedly:
"No, no, no, both of you."
"It has nothing to do with heaven or hell."
"Another world, that's what it means literally. When you say that, it makes it sound like we are dead, but my companions and I are both alive.
Just not of this world.”
"But another one... Anyway, we are not the dead ones. Uh, well, why should I explain."
"Xiao Honglu, come here."
Seeing his captain shaking his head, Xiao Honglu stood up.
He handed the Andersen fairy tales he found in the museum to the two people.
Then he turned to the children in their arms and asked:
"Eric, do you know the story of the little match girl?"
"Yes, I have heard this story many times."
"What if you entered this world and met the little match girl?"
"And your mission is to save this little girl, so what should you do?"
Eric thought for a moment and said:
"I would find a warm home and invite her in so she wouldn't have to strike a match to keep warm."
"Then one day the little match girl asked, how do you know my story, what would you answer?"
Eric was stunned and thought for a while:
"I would say there was a prophecy, and the prophecy told me."
In fact, when Xiao Honglu asked this question.
Adebei, O'Connor and Evelyn on the side understood what was going on.
"Mission, complete the mission, disappear!"
Evelin muttered to herself and looked up and said:
"Your mission ten years ago was to defeat Imhotep?"
"By the way, I still remember you said ten years ago that you came to Hamunatta based on a prophecy, with the purpose of saving the world."
Li Xiao was drinking tea, green tea, light.
Mm, it tastes quite good.
To be honest, Li Xiao suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first time he had drunk tea since entering the main god space.
The result was the tea I drank in the British Museum in the horror movie.
And if I remember correctly, this taste is still West Lake Longjing?
This is one of the finest teas of this era.
If the East really completely closes itself off from the outside world, this thing cannot be brought out, so there must be problems.
Li Xiao thought a lot in an instant.
But he still answered the main question and supplemented Xiao Honglu's words.
"To be more precise, it is the burial of the undead priest Imhotep."
"Given the depth of the water in this world, I'm afraid that even without us, Imhotep won't be able to destroy the world."
"So there's no need to worry about the world being destroyed."
Evelyn picked up the Andersen fairy tale in her hand and read it:
"So, our world is actually a storybook?"
Li Xiao waved his hand:
"No, this is just a metaphor to help you understand better."
Evelin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this.
After all, no one wants to live in a fake world.
O'Connor nodded and asked:
"So you came back now because Imhotep has resurrected?"
"Is this your new mission?"
Zheng Zha shook his head:
"No, our new mission is to find the treasure of the Scorpion King, wake him up, and then kill the Scorpion King."
"Of course, now it seems that he will be able to wake up on his own without us waking him up."
Hearing this, both parents breathed a sigh of relief.
Because it seems that the goals of both parties are exactly the same.
Evelin, who was relieved, looked at the three people in the corner of the museum, smiled slightly, and walked over with tea.
"Three of you, please try it. This is the curator's collection. He said it is the best tea in the East."
“It tastes good, doesn’t it?”
Cheng Xiao looked at the beautiful figure in front of him and excitedly took it.
"Dear lady, I commend your beauty and kindness."
It must be said that Evelin ten years later could indeed be called a mature beauty.
Compared to the bookish lady ten years ago, she is now a charming peach.
In Cheng Xiao's words, that was his dream lover, so how could he not be excited.
But O'Connor is not blind and has already set his eyes on this person.
Prevent your home from being robbed.
As newcomers, Li Ru and Su Wei were also very surprised, but they still accepted the kindness of the heroine of the plot.
Although everything was so unbelievable, these two hours were enough for them to reshape their worldview.
For example, this is the British Museum, which you have to buy a ticket and queue up to enter in the real world.
For example, they are sitting on antiques that cannot be touched or photographed.
For example, in the entire British Museum, antiques from the East account for more than half.
From this aspect alone, we can see how chaotic the East was ten years ago.
Otherwise, these treasures would not have traveled across the ocean to be displayed in the British Museum.
"It's a pity that the British upper class now likes to put sugar or milk in their tea, but I really like this kind of tea."
Evelin shrugged and said to the Zhongzhou team.
Li Xiao nodded:
"We have it over there too, we call it milk tea, it might be the same thing as what you're talking about."
O'Connell stepped forward:
"So everyone, let's get back to the point. You just said you wanted to go to Hamunaptra first?"
"You know, Hamunaptra and the Giza Pyramids are not in the same direction."
Zheng Zha sighed, thought for a moment and said:
"I need your help, or more precisely, the help of your people, Adebei."
“At that time, Evelyn’s knowledge was also needed.”
"We need to dig through the collapsed Hamunaptra and open the way to the altar."
“Such a project requires a lot of manpower.”
"The Red Men alone may not be enough."
"And most importantly, we need time, the shortest possible time."
Ade nodded:
"That's no problem, but..." (End of this chapter)
