"Who are they?"

Watching the "dwarfs" flee in panic like monkeys, Rice was amused and asked about their identities.

"Cabanelli, but not a normal cabanelli."

"The natives cursed by the Amshe Oasis, former slaves of the Scorpion King, a bunch of pathetic creatures," Imhotep said.

“Why not kill them?” Rice asked.

"As long as they remain in the Amshe Oasis, they are immortal. They may not be physically strong, but they possess the same intelligence as normal humans. Once they realize their immortality and acquire the weapons of this era—"

Imhotep walked over to a slave lying in a pool of blood, picked up a pistol, and said with a slightly serious expression, "They will have thoughts they shouldn't have."

Even the powerless slaves were restless, ruling over the land that originally belonged to the Pharaoh, and creating weapons that even mages feared.

If these immortal Kabaneri were to discover that they are immortal, who knows what terrifying weapons they would create!

Once these slaves have weapons, they will think about rebelling and seizing our rights!

The best option for us is to scare them away and keep them ignorant!

As Evelyn translated the ancient Egyptian and understood Imhotep's words, Lu Jin's expression darkened, and he sighed inwardly. He recalled the past dynasties of China and was suddenly surprised to find that the thoughts of those emperors were similar to those of Imhotep before him—

Surprisingly consistent!

Nobody wants ordinary people at the bottom of society to have too much knowledge!

All you need are simple life skills such as farming, making bricks and building walls!

According to Brother Jiang, Imhotep is going backwards!

At the same time.

On the Zhongzhou team's side...

# Chapter 551 Sneak Attack! One Person Lost!

Zheng Zha and his group also encountered "harassment" from the Amshe natives, but after receiving a message from Jiang Liu, Zhan Lan and Zhao Yingkong did not kill them, but instead drove them away.

Although the Amshe natives are hostile to all invaders, they are also intelligent and know how to avoid harm and will not fight head-on against beings they cannot defeat.

That is, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

They would flee in terror if frightened by Imhotep.

The same reason.

Once Zheng Zha unlocks the second-tier gene lock and unleashes his power, it will be enough to terrify them into a rout, forcing them to hide in bushes and caves, no longer daring to offend him.

"These monkey-like mummies are really cowardly."

Seeing that the Amshe natives were as restless as monkeys on Mount Emei, easily frightened and running away in a panic, Zhang Jie brandished his Desert Eagle, which had unlimited ammo, and chuckled coldly.

"Jiang Liu said that these monkeys are actually people. According to the ancient Egyptians' classification of monsters, they should be called Cabanelli."

After finishing her sentence, Zhan Lan continued to complain, "This name reminds me of the anime 'Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress,' where there's a monster called Kabane, who is immortal and eats human flesh. Kabane is essentially Kabane that retains human intelligence and emotions..."

"It's not an easy thing to fool the audience."

Xiao Honglu had also watched this anime and commented, "Haven't you noticed that any film or television drama that becomes a classic, regardless of the plot, at least the creators must have put a lot of effort into setting the world view. They will look up relevant information and make certain modifications during the creation process."

The word "kaba" originally comes from the ancient Egyptian definition of the soul and the body. In Taoism, it is roughly equivalent to the meaning of the word "life" or "destiny".

The Amshe natives we are encountering now may be the true nature of the Kabaneri.

“No, Jiang Liu said that the Cabanelli are the reincarnations of the Cabanelli, a combination of soul information imprinted into the primordial Qi, returning to the person or animal born from life. Theoretically, they are new individuals with some memories of their previous life. However, because the ancient Egyptians' technology in this area was imperfect, their memories were incomplete, which caused these new individuals to be extremely emotionally unstable and easily angered.”

Through the light spot, Zhan Lan inquired about the specifics of the Kabaneri and slowly explained, "Correspondingly, the appearance of the Amshe natives is abnormal. They are affected by the Qi, causing their souls and innate Qi to remain trapped in their bodies, unable to reincarnate through the Kabane like normal Kabaneri."

"Can you speak in a way that I can understand?" O'Connor was completely bewildered and even began to wonder if there was something wrong with her brain.

"Don't worry about it, I don't understand it either."

Zheng Zha patted O'Connor on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile, "Let's hurry up and move on."

The Central Continent Team, along with O'Connor and Adez Bay, made their way through the jungle. Zhao Yingkong led the way, Zero remained hidden in the jungle, Zhan Lan maintained a constant mental scan, Zheng Zha protected O'Connor and Adez Bay, and Zhang Jie, Qi Tengyi, Qin Zhuiyu, and Xiao Honglu guarded the rear.

That's how it is.

The group heard no birdsong and saw no insects. When they scanned the open space ahead, Zhan Lan immediately stopped and said, "I sensed the enemy's mental shielding. They must have discovered us too."

Zheng Zha stopped in his tracks, about to speak, when the air behind him distorted, and a long-haired youth arrived in an instant, his dagger flashing with a cold light.

Hiss!

In an instant, Qi Teng's head was severed.

"asshole!"

Zhang Jie roared and immediately opened fire.

However, the newcomer was extremely powerful. He flicked his dagger to deflect the bullets and did not linger in battle. Seeing Zheng Zha engulfed in blood flames, with blood wings sprouting from his back and an imposing aura, he immediately took a step back and instantly appeared a hundred meters away.

"Go to hell!"

Zheng Zha took a step, and the earth trembled. Like a cannonball being fired, he tore apart all the bushes and trees along the way in the most violent way. In less than a second, he was already in front of his opponent.

One punch!

boom!

The air exploded, piercing straight through the opponent's chest!

But Zheng Zha did not feel his fist touch the other person's flesh—

What was hit was only a fleeting shadow.

"Oops!"

Zheng Zha quickly turned his head.

Sure enough, the young man once again used his spatial abilities to appear in front of Zhan Lan, the cold light of his dagger slicing through the air.

Damn it!

Zheng Zha hurriedly turned back, unleashing all his potential, but he was still a second too slow.

Ding!

Just as the man's dagger was about to slash Zhan Lan's neck, a bullet shot out from the nearby jungle and hit the dagger with perfect accuracy.

This slowed down the movements of the person holding the dagger.

At that very moment, Zheng Zha arrived, his body wreathed in blood flames. His heart beat for a split second, activating the runes on it. His inner strength and vampire energy converged in his heart, which he then punched out, slamming it hard into the man's waist.

In an instant, the man rolled to one side, crashing through countless trees before landing on his feet. He took a deep breath, and his battered body began to recover at a visible speed.

Before they had fully recovered, a pink streak of light shot out from directly in front of Zheng Zha and the others. A steel rod appeared in its hand, and with a flick of its wrist, thousands of cherry blossoms accompanied it, flowing through the forest and transforming into hundreds of chains that bound them.

The person was injured and had not fully recovered. Although he forcibly activated his spatial abilities to dodge dozens of cherry blossom chains, he was still bound and tied up, hanging among the bushes.

Zhao Yingkong circulated her Qi throughout the body, and the light of her soul, Yinghuang, was also integrated into the circulation of her body and mind, becoming one with her Qi. It permeated all nine orifices and eight openings of her body. Using her body as a furnace, she smelted the five Qi, condensed a pink halo, silently recited the Heart Sutra, controlled her primordial spirit, and slammed it down on the opponent's head.

But at the critical moment, Zhao Yingkong's body trembled slightly.

The latter took the opportunity to heal his injuries, and in a flash, he teleported nearly 500 meters away.

boom!

With a single strike, countless gusts of air surged forth, and pink light rippled as countless petals spread out, just like a pink phoenix spreading its wings and crying out to the sky. The ground within a radius of a hundred meters cracked open, and a wide open area, about tens of meters wide and nearly three hundred meters long, was opened up directly in front of it.

"cut!"

Zhao Yingkong thought to herself, "They're even practicing the Heart Sutra, yet they're still influencing me. That's a bit much!"

In the inner scene, the main personality has tears in his eyes and says, "It's not his fault, forgive him."

"But he killed Qi Tengyi."

Zhao Yingkong retorted, "Jiang Liu can only avoid death and prolong life, but he can't bring the dead back to life! At least for me, before you stepped onto the twenty-fourth floor, merged with me, and replaced my false memories, Zhao Zhuikong was just a familiar stranger to me, while Qi Tengyi was an acquaintance of mine."

Having said this, Zhao Yingkong stopped talking to her master and chased after Zhao Zhuikong, only to find that the other party had already left with "inch-steps" and disappeared without a trace.

"Oh shit!"

Zhao Yingkong cursed at the main personality: "Are you happy now?!"

The dominant personality: "..."

# Chapter 552 The Golden Book of the Sun

The commotion from the battle between the Central Continent Team and Zhao Zhuikong naturally caught Imhotep's attention, and he immediately went to investigate.

Zhao Yingkong returned to the group, put Qi Tengyi's corpse into her storage ring, and said, "Hurry up! Enter the pyramid! The commotion will attract others! Finding the Sun Sutra is our priority!"

"What if we encounter the Scorpion King first?"

Qin Zhuiyu worried, "If we go to that guy's territory, our power might be taken away! Also, to kill the Scorpion King, we need the Spear of Osiris! That is, the Spear of Destiny! In the story, Jonathan got his hands on it... He probably hasn't gotten his hands on it yet."

"The Spear of Destiny is needed because Imhotep, stripped of his power, and O'Connor, an ordinary man, are no match for that scorpion-headed monster."

Xiao Honglu glanced at her, but still spoke up to explain, "But we don't need to worry about that. I've read novels about Qi before. It's connected to life and death, so it's unlikely to be separated from us. At most, it will be weakened."

Furthermore, the veterans in our team also have genetic locks.

Furthermore, the Scorpion King's palace is locked; without the Death Bracelet, it won't open. And if it were to open, darkness would descend, and dark clouds would gather—a feeling likely even to ordinary people!

After saying that, the Zhongzhou team left the jungle and came to a pyramid about 100 meters high.

Chu Xuan briefly analyzed the information he had and instructed, "That person was the captain of the East America team, and he was the only one on the East America team who had unlocked the fourth stage of the gene lock."

The only people who could handle him were Zheng Zha, Zhao Yingkong, and Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu is studying the overall energy flow and can't leave, and this is also a challenge for us...

Zhao Yingkong's main personality has a complicated relationship with that person. Even if she has the ability to kill him, she will be influenced by her main personality and will always give that guy a chance to escape.

Therefore, Zheng Zha, you stay outside and keep watch. The pyramid is only so big; it won't exceed the distance limit.

"If he dares to come, I'll kill him!"
