"The Central Continent team has already bared its fangs at us."

Miyata Kuraki's face was frosty. "Without sacrificing the newcomers, we can't survive this horror movie. Rather than letting them become side stories and reward points for the Central Continent Team, it's better to sacrifice them for our survival."

In the end, Aoi Sora had no choice but to agree.

Compared to the lives of the newcomers, she cared more about the lives of Miyata Kuraki and herself.

“A wise choice.” Zhao Zhuikong grinned. “Then, to be more sincere, could you tell me what your mission is?”

"Shouldn't we talk about the East American team's mission before we go any further?" Miyata Kuraki retorted.

"That's it."

Zhao Zhuikong suppressed his smile, "Let me reveal some information about the members of the Central Continent Team first. One of them comes from an assassin family and has already unlocked the fourth stage of the gene lock, awakening the Light of the Mind. His ability is to release a kind of petal similar to cherry blossoms, which can be ever-changing and is both offensive and defensive."

"Fourth tier! That's terrifying. It seems that person is the captain of the Central Continent Team."

Aoi Sora exclaimed in surprise, then worried about the upcoming battle, "We must avoid direct combat with the enemy as much as possible..."

"Your target is that fourth-tier assassin?"

Miyata Kuraki, however, immediately realized Zhao Zhuikong's purpose: "To challenge the limits, he killed his own teammates, but now he wants to cooperate with us—"

"I suppose you've already fought that fourth-tier assassin, but were defeated, which is why you're considering cooperating with us."

"I don't really like smart people." Zhao Zhuikong's eyes were incredibly cold, and an invisible aura erupted, sweeping across the scene, causing beads of cold sweat to drip from the foreheads of Miyata Kuraki and Aoi Sora.

But in reality, Zhao Zhuikong was completely calm inside; the gloom on his face was just a facade.

Indeed.

What Miyata Kuraki said was true; he lost to Zhao Yingkong, but victory and defeat are common occurrences in war, and he would not let it shake his resolve.

The only thing that could stir his emotions was that Zhao Yingkong's second personality acknowledged the false memories of the past, yet chose to be independent, wanting to completely replace his cousin.

He, Zhao Zhuikong, would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen!

and so!

He must kill Zhao Yingkong once!

In addition, just in case, the "native" who has a significant influence on Zhao Yingkong must also die!

# Chapter 543 The One Chosen by Serket (Part 1)

With the collaboration between the East Blue team and the East America team, Miyata Kuraki ordered Mitarai to bring over all the newcomers, a total of four, one of whom was wearing the Death God Bracelet of the Scorpion Emperor.

"He might need it later."

Miyata Kuraki pointed to the trembling young man wearing the Death Bracelet and said, "The horror movie reality we live in is not quite the same as the Mummy series we know. This bracelet may have other uses, but it cannot be taken off for now. We have to keep him alive for the time being."

"A reasonable speculation."

Zhao Zhuikong thought of the native friends Zhao Yingkong had made and agreed, so he borrowed a dagger from Cangjing Kong.

Swish!

A flash of white light, and the heads of the three newlyweds rolled to the ground, dying in Egypt before they could even cry out in pain.

The remaining newcomer, wearing the Death Bracelet, collapsed to the ground with a thud. His trousers were soaked through. His eyes trembled as he stared at the three corpses lying in the pool of blood, and at the three heads with wide-open eyes, filled with resentment and hatred. His mouth was open, and he let out a silent scream.

"Ah!"

Zhao Zhuikong glanced at the newcomer with disdain, casually tossed the dagger aside, and said, "Your tiny place is truly 'full of talent'."

Faced with the mockery, Miyata Kuraki frowned and said coldly, "If you have no power, you are even more pathetic than him."

"That's not necessarily true."

Zhao Zhuikong's mocking expression intensified...

···

"Captain, one member of the East Sea team has been killed."

After Jiang Liu scouted out the members of the East Sea team, Zero immediately concealed himself and aimed at the area around the cliff several miles away. The moment Koizumi Masao peeked out, he pulled the trigger and fired a bullet, achieving a headshot kill and gaining a B-level side quest and 7,000 reward points.

no doubt!

The guy whose head he shot unlocked his genetic potential!

It's a pity—

"One escaped. The other party reacted very quickly; they must be a reconnaissance agent."

"Understood. Continue to conceal yourself. Zhan Lan's mental shield will ensure that you are not discovered by others, but also pay attention to the distance. Five thousand meters. The main god has severely restricted our range."

Using the spiritual points that Zhan Lan had placed in everyone's ancestral aperture, Zheng Zha gave instructions to Zero Point, and then sighed.

Team battle.

If you don't kill others, you'll be killed...

Even though he had prepared himself mentally at the beginning, a sense of gloom still arose in his heart after he killed one of the opposing members with zero points.

However, as the captain of the Central Continent Team, Zheng Zha was responsible for the safety of all team members, so he immediately adjusted his emotions.

"Understood, Captain!"

The order was given at midnight; conceal your presence and quickly relocate.

"What should we do next?" Zheng Zha asked Jiang Liu.

"rest."

Jiang Liu uttered two words, then added, "Wait until the Wenfeng Festival officially arrives."

"rest?"

Noticing the tired faces of O'Connor and the Medgar warriors, Zheng Zha took out water and food from his storage ring. Xiao Honglu and Qin Zhuiyu also ate heartily to replenish their strength and hydration.

Although the two of them had their Ren and Du meridians opened by the river and had control over the Small Heavenly Circuit, moving the circuit required the use of willpower, which was a rather tedious process that required strong mental strength. Furthermore, they did not currently have any reward points to ask the main god to help stabilize the operation of the Small Heavenly Circuit, so the consumption was also quite large.

Xiao Honglu is alright; he has innate special abilities and can see things like "death energy."

In other words, he was born with an ability similar to observing qi, which could be considered a "natural genius". Even without cultivating his life force or understanding the circulation of qi, his physical fitness was still somewhat stronger than that of ordinary healthy teenagers of the same age.

Qin Zhuiyu was just an ordinary, weak female celebrity. Her mental strength was not as good as Xiao Honglu's. After traveling in the desert for a long time, her Qi was exhausted. She had to force herself to circulate her Qi through her mind and squeeze out her potential. She was already exhausted and her condition was only slightly better than O'Connor and the Medgar Warrior.

After arriving outside the Amshe Oasis, Medgar and O'Connor, having eaten and drunk their fill, found their spirits lifted.

The energy here seemed to have touched the Medgar sacred mark on the back of their hands, which in turn stimulated the innate Qi in their bodies, causing their primordial spirit, brain, internal organs, muscles, skin and tissues to become active. Every cell in their body was pulsating at a special frequency, causing their physical fitness to improve at an extremely slow pace.

Jiang Liu and Zhao Yingkong immediately sensed the interaction between their innate Qi and Qi formation.

O'Connor is the most obvious example of this.

The Qi within his body, which originally only participated in cellular metabolism and was naturally consumed and dissipated, was actually connected in a specific order, flowing through his limbs and chest, and then circulating with his brain in a cycle.

Similar to Qi refining, it is also close to alchemy. If you only look at the trajectory of Qi circulating in his body from the front, it looks like a peculiar cross is being constructed!

The Ankha Cross of ancient Egypt!

O'Connor seemed to feel the warm current within her as well, and instinctively assumed the most comfortable position:

He stood up straight, arms outstretched, as if to embrace something.

Then, he closed his eyes, his breathing gradually became steady, and the Qi within his body completely circulated, flowing through his limbs, internal organs, and brain—

"Scorpion!"

In an instant!

O'Connor gasped, her eyes snapping open. She let out a shriek, her legs giving way, and collapsed onto the sand, gasping for breath. "I saw a scorpion! A huge scorpion! In a huge forest..."

No, it's the forest that grows on the scorpion's back!

Its head is topped with a pyramid, inlaid with a diamond larger than a human head, radiating golden brilliance!

At the end of its scorpion tail stood a magnificent, ancient city, where gold was everywhere and diamonds were as plentiful as sand…

Listening to O'Connor's description, Zhang Jie said irritably, "Are you suffering from heatstroke? What nonsense are you talking about?"

"He must have really seen something."

Zhan Lan seemed to realize something and asked Jiang Liu for confirmation, "You said the aura formation is scorpion-shaped, and the aura formation covering Hamunaptra is only equivalent to a scorpion's tail—"

O'Connor is a descendant of the Medgar warriors, and may possess certain traits!

As the Wind Festival draws closer, the activity level of the entire Scorpion-shaped aura will increase, allowing him to see some scenes from the past.

Or perhaps it's witnessing the complete formation of the aura in the unseen realm?

"possible."

Jiang Liu looked at the bewildered O'Connor, reached out and pulled him up from the sand, and asked, "You felt the flowing power within you, didn't you? Congratulations on embarking on the path of cultivation!"

At this point, Jiang Liu's gaze fell on the Medgar warrior who was looking at O'Connor with a pious expression, and he pondered, "If I'm not mistaken, there are very few Medgar warriors like O'Connor, aren't there?"

"Yes."

Coming to his senses, the Medgar warrior glanced at O'Connor, a mix of emotions swirling within him—this person was actually a descendant of the Medgar warriors, and even possessed the blessing of Serket, gaining power...

The goddess must be blind!

# Chapter 544 The One Chosen by Serket (Part 2)

Serket!

Although there was no temple dedicated to Serket in ancient Egyptian mythology, there were still a considerable number of priests in the various settlements throughout Egypt.

Why?

The Egyptian gods today can be divided into three categories: Ennead, principal gods, and animal gods. Serket belongs to the animal gods, specifically the scorpion god.

In the tradition of Medgar, Serket is not actually classified as an animal god, but rather as the god of the earth, the god of eternity, the god of rain, the god of climate, the god of war, the god of protection, and so on.

In short, of the divine duties held by the Ennead, the principal gods, and the animal gods, all except for the one in charge of the sun, moon, and stars can be attributed to Serket.

Nothing more!
