I made up myths in America

Chapter 90 Black Book of the Dead
And just when Feiying was being interrogated at the Investigation Bureau.

As the other party in this battle for the spell, Drake is in a very bad situation now.

The directors of the Life Foundation were very disappointed with him, especially after watching the video about Joan of Arc.

A talisman that could bring the dead back to life and possessed such magical powers was lost just like that.

If they were to get it and resurrect the prophet Moses, they couldn’t even imagine how happy the Jews would be.

"What a waste!!"

The more beautiful the expectations were, the angrier these directors became.

Drake, who once served as the head of the Life Foundation's San Diego headquarters, was soon dismissed by the directors who were disappointed in his abilities and exiled to the Egyptian desert.

Since the frequent occurrence of extraordinary events, the craze for Egyptian exploration that briefly appeared in the 19th century has returned.

After all, according to normal logical reasoning, we can conclude that as one of the four ancient civilizations, since China has mysterious supernatural powers, ancient Egypt must have them too.

Moreover, unlike China's strict management of archaeological sites, modern Egyptians and ancient Egyptians are not even the same race.

As long as you pay, the Egyptian government is very relaxed in this regard. You can dig as much as you want.

A large number of expeditions and archaeologists have come to this ancient and mysterious land recently, hoping to find ancient Egyptian treasures with extraordinary powers in the desert.

That's Drake's job now.

The board of directors has already made a harsh statement.

Unless he can find a real Egyptian treasure, he will have to eat sand in Egypt for the rest of his life.

This was a huge drop for Drake, who once held immense power.

Even the day before he left, he saw the female assistant who used to be obedient to him, walking out of his former office with loose clothes and a seductive look on her face, without even looking at him.

Because this office has welcomed its new owner.

"Damn, my silk carpet"

At that moment, Drake was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. He was thinking about how he would deal with this couple after he found the ancient treasure in Egypt and returned as a king.

But when he really arrived in Egypt and was exposed to the wind and sun in the black desert for a few days, his spirit was immediately worn away by half.

The boundless sea of ​​sand never changes, with no end in sight, just like his life now.

"Tsk tsk, the resentment is really visible to the naked eye."

A raven controlled by Lu Bai flew through the sky, looking down with interest. In just a few days, he had completely changed from a powerful and exquisitely dressed head of the base to a Drake with a beautiful beard that had not been taken care of for several days and was simply covered with a mask. He wore a loose Egyptian robe and his arms and neck were sunburned.

He has not been idle these days.

In addition to traveling around the world, he created many monsters and undead using his two abilities of flesh transformation and shadow control.

I also took the time to go to the Mountain and Sea Realm and exchanged feelings with the Shusha tribe, Jufu, Biyiniao and others.

Among them, the hunting trip to the desert with the Shusha tribe was very rewarding for him.

At the same time, I saw two strange beasts living in the vast desert.

One is a strange beast that was once worshipped by the two countries of Zhiduan and Xi.

This is a strange beast that looks like a dog, but is much larger and has six legs.

Three hundred miles further south is a mountain called the Cottonwood Mountain. On its top are abundant gold and jade, and beneath are abundant green and blue stones. There lives a beast there, shaped like a dog, with six legs. Its name is Congcong, and its cry is self-deprecating.

From it, Lu Bai imprinted a very interesting talent, Mingsha.

As the name suggests, this is the ability to manipulate sand.

When Lu Bai first copied it and it was at level 1, he found that it was not very strong. But after he spent nearly 5 willpower points to upgrade it directly to level , he found that it was already strong enough to control the desert and even create some sand soldiers with simple intelligence through sand.

This gave him a lot of inspiration to do things, so he controlled a desert raven and came to Cairo, Egypt.

As for the other strange beast, Qin Yuan, its abilities are also very interesting.

Four hundred miles southwest is the Kunlun Hill. There is a bird there that looks like a bee and is as big as a mandarin duck. It is called Qinyuan. If it bites birds or beasts, they will die.

The innate ability that Lu Bai copied from it was [Poison Resistance].

Like Mingsha, this ability was not strong at the beginning and could only control a small amount of poisons or mix some simple toxins.

But after he consumed a large amount of willpower and upgraded this talent to level 5, its performance increased instantly. Not only could he control a large number of poisonous creatures, but he could also make these poisonous creatures devour each other, evolve, and even create plagues.

This made the inspiration in Lu Bai's mind clearer and clearer.

At this moment, through the raven circling in the sky, he looked at the resentful figure of Drake in the expedition team below, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"You are the one."

In the Egyptian desert, the sun was setting. After a day's walk, the expedition team was tired and thirsty. They just wanted to find a place to have a good rest.

But at this moment, the originally calm and windless desert suddenly changed its face, and a terrifying black sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun was brewing in the distance.

"咴咴!!"

The camels under the expedition team cried out in panic. "Go, go!"

Faced with the power of heaven and earth, the expedition members who had been shouting "I can't walk anymore" suddenly shuddered, lay on the camels, and ran faster than each other.

Whoosh, whoosh—

The sky is filled with wind and sand.

In this seemingly endless sandstorm, the expedition team even lost the concept of time.

All I knew was that my body was getting heavier and heavier, and the camel under me was walking slower and slower.

In the end, they even despaired and thought they would die here.

But this time.

In the dry sand ahead, where even a few cacti could be seen growing, the air suddenly seemed to become hazy as the sun slowly set over the hills.

As the light dimmed, an ancient tomb full of ancient Egyptian style appeared before the stunned and ecstatic eyes of the expedition team, as if a miracle had occurred.

"Hahaha, I knew God was blessing me."

When Drake saw this scene, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. After making sure that this was real and not his hallucination, he laughed wildly like crazy and rushed forward first on his camel.

"Let's go and take shelter."

Seeing this, the other members of the expedition team also looked happy and hurried to follow.

The group used flashlights and explosives to quickly blast a gap and entered the ancient Egyptian tomb located underground in the desert.

Soon, under the guidance of an accompanying Egyptologist, they found a strange sarcophagus and a square treasure box engraved with many ancient Egyptian characters at the foot of the statue of Anubis, the god of death in the mausoleum.

"What does it say here, Professor Amir, Captain Drake??"

Everyone in the expedition team looked at each other and then turned their eyes to the only two people in the team who knew ancient Egyptian.

Amir, the Egyptian scholar, looked excited. He reached out and gently stroked the ancient Egyptian writing on the treasure box, muttering softly, "Anyone who opens this box will be killed. It looks like a curse, a common sight in ancient Egyptian tombs; they hate to have their dead disturbed."

As he said this, he was about to open the treasure box nonchalantly, but Drake, who had calmed down again, stopped him.

He had really seen a monster, and he didn't want to die inexplicably in this desert.

"It can't be opened. With so many paranormal events happening around the world right now, for everyone's safety, I think it's best to report it like this. We have a video of the ruins appearing out of thin air as evidence, which is enough to prove their mystery. What do you think of the reward?"

"I agree."

"Seconded!!"

"."

The members of the expedition team, who had just experienced a black sandstorm, did not want to take any risks. Upon hearing this, they looked at each other and nodded.

steaming--

A few hours later, the two mysterious Egyptian treasures were loaded onto a transport plane bound for San Diego, California, USA.

Drake also smiled and set off on his journey home in high spirits.

But after taking a flight for more than ten hours and returning to San Diego, the base that once belonged to him, he was immediately poured cold water on.

"Dear Dr. Drake, you are not so naive as to think that you can return to your previous position just because you have made such a big mistake and brought back a broken box and a mummy sarcophagus, right?"

In the underground base, the new supervisor Aaron, who was wearing a well-fitting blue suit and also had a beautiful beard, and was a head taller than Drake, looked at the downtrodden Drake in front of him with his blue eyes and some mockery.

He raised his chin towards the security guards standing nearby and said, "Go, open that broken box and see what 'treasure' our Dr. Drake has brought back."

"Yes."

These security personnel looked straight ahead, not daring to look at their former superior's extremely ugly face at the moment, and quickly carried out the order.

"No."

Drake didn't have time to stop them, and he saw them opening the box from a distance.

Whoosh, whoosh—

Suddenly, a strange gust of wind blew up out of nowhere in the room.

Several security guards who had just opened the lid froze in their tracks and swallowed nervously.

Aaron, the new supervisor, was also a little panicked.

Fortunately, after waiting for a while, nothing happened.

Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

The new supervisor, Aaron, walked forward and picked up the box with a curious look on his face. It looked very mysterious, with a black cover engraved with many ancient Egyptian symbols and a metal scripture with an octagonal recessed lock.

Amir, the Egyptologist who came with them, read out the ancient Egyptian text on the black cover.

"The Black Book of the Dead."
