A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Cao Gui smiled slightly: "Looking for you, Mr. O'Connor, Ms. Eve, and... who is it?"

Cao Gui smiled and nodded at her brother, while the white man named Jonathan was speechless. This guy... is so unfair.

"Sir, what do you need us for?" Eve asked quickly. She could tell that none of these men were reliable, and she would have to do it herself.

Cao Gui reached behind him with his right hand, took out the dark scripture they had found before, and chuckled:

"The three of you, I think this is familiar to you, right?"

O'Connor and Jonathan's eyes lit up immediately. Good heavens, they've delivered themselves right to their doorstep!

Chapter 219 The Golden Book of the Sun

"Mr. Cao, so that's how the Dark Scripture came into your hands. You're really powerful."

In the private jet, Eve gently covered her mouth and smiled slightly.

"Haha, Miss Eve, you flatter me. I only did some small things within my ability," Cao Gui said with a smile, gently stirring his coffee.

"We still need your help to deal with that mummy."

"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you," Eve said with a slight smile.

The two men were having a pleasant conversation, while behind them were O'Connor and Jonathan, whose faces were swollen like buns. Their features were not exactly clear, but they were at least bruised and swollen.

While at the hotel, O'Connor thought Cao Gui was weak, easily bullied, and vulnerable, yet he still did exactly that.

This is the result.

"Hiss... I can't even drink alcohol anymore." O'Connor's lips were swollen like sausage lips, and it hurt terribly to even touch them, let alone drink anything.

"Are you stupid? Just use a straw."

Jonathan, with a straw in his mouth, looked at him like he was an idiot, but unfortunately, his eye sockets were swollen shut, so his eyes couldn't convey anything.

“Drinking coffee with a straw…” O’Connor was speechless. This was not something a British gentleman should do; it was too unconventional.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

Jonathan didn't care about any of that. He sipped his coffee with a straw, completely absorbed in the experience. Such a nice private jet, such good coffee—it would be a waste not to drink it. It would be foolish not to take advantage of a good deal.

O'Connor: "..."

In a luxury hotel in New York.

A man with a pointed snout and monkey-like face, looking timid and hesitant, stood next to Imhotep.

"Master, there are too many people in this city, I can't find O'Connor and the others..."

His name is Benny, the little guy who said in Chinese, "Please, Bodhisattva, bless me."

Imhotep closed his eyes and ignored him.

"Owner……"

At that moment, Imhotep suddenly opened his eyes, startling Benny.

"I can sense the presence of the Dark Scripture and the Jade Urn!"

Imhotep suddenly said in a deep voice, "However... these two things seem to be located at a very high position, and he is not yet capable of dealing with an enemy who is his equal at such a high position."

Imhotep closed his eyes again to sense the situation. After a while, he opened his eyes again and found that the two things were moving in the direction of Egypt, his homeland.

"Looks like you want to die..." Imhotep muttered. Playing on home turf, the advantage is on my side!

At this moment, boundless confidence surged within him; this time, it was time for that brat to taste the pain of defeat.

“Master, what happened again…” Benny asked cautiously, but Imhotep grabbed him and carried him into the air, turning him into a sandstorm.

Hamnat, Egypt.

This is deep in the desert, known as the City of the Dead.

O'Connor and Eve led Cao Gui into the underground palace with practiced ease. Eve had been here once before, but O'Connor had been here quite a few times.

"Dear sir and madam, what are we doing here again?" Jonathan asked breathlessly. The swelling on his face had subsided considerably, and he was beginning to resemble a human again.

“Defeat magic with magic,” Cao Gui glanced at him and said calmly.

“Cao, you’re right.” Eve nodded in agreement. “We found the Dark Book here and resurrected Imhotep.”

"Then the legendary Book of the Sun must also be here, and it must have the power to kill Imhotep."

"Heh... hiss~" O'Connor couldn't help but grimac when he saw this, but the pain from the injury on his face brought tears to his eyes.

"So Eve, where is that Sun Sutra you mentioned?" Jonathan asked.

“Well…” Eve scratched her head, “Isn’t that what we’re looking for?”

"So you didn't know either..." O'Connor was speechless, then, as if remembering something, quickly said:

"Also, don't forget, that key is in Benny's hands."

“If it’s really as you say, then the Black Scripture needs a key, and the Golden Scripture of the Sun also needs that key.”

“Oh, right.” Eve suddenly realized, “You’re right… God, we don’t have the key yet.”

As she spoke, she suddenly became agitated: "Damn it, we don't have the key yet, what are we going to do?"

"Find the scriptures first, then we'll find a way," Cao Gui said calmly, tossing the backpack behind him. Inside was the Dark Scripture.

The reason it wasn't added to the [System Backpack] was to tell Imhotep the exact location and lure him here.

“Okay.” Eve nodded, letting out a slight sigh of relief as her anxious emotions calmed down.

“Let’s go to the place where Imhotep appeared first. I remember there was a large stone slab there with ancient Egyptian writing on it. It must contain information from the Book of the Sun.”

As they spoke, the four of them led Cao Gui through the dark tunnels, winding and turning until they arrived at a relatively spacious area in the underground maze-like tunnels.

At the center of this place stands a colossal stone statue, next to which is a massive black stone coffin.

“This is Imhotep’s coffin,” Eve pointed, then quickly walked behind the statue, where a black stone slab stood, covered with dense hieroglyphs.

Cao Gui glanced at it and skipped over it. He had struggled with English in junior and senior high school, let alone these ancient Egyptian characters that looked like gibberish. He might be interested in looking at oracle bone script, but he decided to leave these to the professionals.

Cao Gui was very glad that he hadn't been arrogant and hadn't forgotten the main characters; otherwise, he would have faced the problem of how to completely crush Imhotep, who was just a three-thousand-year-old zombie.

“Eve, what did they say?” Jonathan couldn’t help but ask.

“Where is the Book of the Sun hidden?” O’Connor then asked.

"Gentlemen, patience is a virtue."

Eve's fingers trembled slightly as she traced the hieroglyphs on the paper, her gaze following the movement of her fingertips.

To be honest, she has studied these ancient scripts, but not to the extent of her native language; she needs time to translate and reflect on them.

Whoohoo!

At that moment, a strong wind howled through the passageway, and the sound was very clear in the confined space.

Cao Gui and the other two felt a chill in their hearts. A strange wind had risen up out of nowhere; it seemed the enemy was about to arrive.

“Eve!” O’Connor couldn’t help but shout.

"Please don't rush me, gentlemen." Eve's voice trembled slightly; she too had sensed the unusual nature of the strange wind she had just encountered.

"Ah! Found it!" Eve suddenly shouted:

"It says here that the Sun Bible is at the feet of Death, while the Dark Bible is within Death."

“But what we found at the feet of Death is the Dark Scripture,” Jonathan said hastily, pointing to the space beneath the statue.

“I know,” Eve said.

"This shows that there is a problem with the language I learned, but it's not a big problem."

“We originally wanted to find the Book of the Sun, but we unexpectedly found the Book of the Dark, which means that the Book of the Sun is inside the statue.”

Cao Gui's eyes sharpened as he surveyed the entire statue. It was carved from a single, massive rock, forming a unified whole with no visible gaps.

“At his feet.” Eve pointed to the base of the statue, where there was a tiny slit.

However, at this time...

Whoohoo!

The wind howled again, and swirling yellow sand emerged from the tunnel.

"Haha, so you really are here."

Imhotep's figure slowly solidified, watching Cao Gui and the other three with great excitement. His love was about to be fulfilled, his career was about to succeed, and his enemies would be buried forever in the yellow sand.

Chapter 220 Gas-Gas Fruit User

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey, it's all sand." Benny, the weasel-faced guy next to him, grimaced and spat out the sand from his mouth. He was in so much pain; he should have known better than to come into contact with this monster.

O'Connor, Eve, and the other two were startled. O'Connor hid behind Cao Gui, Eve hid behind O'Connor, and Jonathan hid behind his sister.

Cao Gui coughed sharply with his toe, kicking the base of the statue next to him. With a soft crack, a broken hidden compartment appeared under the base of the statue.

“The Book of the Sun is inside. You continue. I will take Imhotep.”

Eve glanced at Cao Gui gratefully. He was such a kind person. Not only did he help her find the Sun Sutra she had been dreaming of, but he also helped her deal with the monster she had accidentally released.

"@#￥@#@&*？~/"

On the other side, Imhotep was not inactive either; he immediately summoned the monks who had once served under him.

As he uttered obscure and incomprehensible incantations, withered hands, reduced to skin and bone, emerged from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, one by one, the mummies struggled out of the ground and staggered over.

"Kill them all!" Imhotep ordered.

Of course, the target is O'Connor and his group. The mummy can't deal with Cao Gui, so he wants to deal with Cao Gui himself. Before, the other party didn't know any martial ethics and ambushed him, an old zombie who is over three thousand years old.

Now, this is his home turf, and he must reclaim it.

"Your Excellency, now hand over the Dark Book and the Jade Urn, and submit," Imhotep said slowly.
