I Am a Heroic Spirit

From the changing expressions of Professor X and the other two, one could tell what they were thinking, and Quicksilver quickly poured cold water on them.

"Uncle En?"

Quicksilver shouted to Apocalypse, and the others also looked at Apocalypse, wanting to confirm whether Apocalypse had the ability to resurrect.

Tianqi nodded, then shook his head, and then said: "As long as there is a breath left, I can make those children return to normal, but if even the last breath is gone, there is nothing I can do."

No one showed disappointment because they were mentally prepared.

"but……"

Just as Professor X was thinking about the success rate of asking Ramses II for help, Apocalypse spoke again.

Everyone looked at Tianqi quickly, and Tianqi said, "I can replenish their vitality. As for their souls, you have to ask Imhotep."

Everyone was delighted at first, and then immediately looked at Imhotep. Wasn't Imhotep the resurrected dead? It was said that he had once performed a resurrection ceremony to revive his lover, but it was interfered with and failed.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Imhotep was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said, "There are two ways to resurrect. The first is to use a living person with a high degree of compatibility with the deceased's soul as a carrier of the dead soul, and summon the dead soul back from the underworld. However, the living person as a carrier will have an impact on the dead soul. The second is to use the body of the deceased as a carrier to summon back the dead soul. However, if the person resurrected by this method is too long ago, even if he is resurrected, he will only be a moving corpse."

When Imhotep resurrected Ansuna, he used the first method, but it failed due to O'Connor's interference.

When he was resurrected for the second time and was about to revive Ansuna, Ansuna's reincarnation appeared. Even after the soul-calling ceremony was used to call back Ansuna's previous life's soul, the reincarnated soul still existed. Later, Imhotep was betrayed because of this.

Thinking of his own experience, after sighing for a while, Imhotep continued, "But their situation is different. All they need to do is find the altar and perform the ritual of summoning the dead. However, the vitality of the deceased needs to be replenished."

After hearing what Imhotep said, Professor X, Quicksilver, Phoenix, and Cyclops couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that Hank and the others were saved.

"However, there is a prerequisite, which is to leave here. After leaving here, you have to find a temple and set up an altar before you can perform the necromancy ceremony." At this time, Imhotep reminded Professor X not to be too happy too soon.

"I understand," Professor X nodded and said firmly, "Put Hank and the others in a corner first. We will set out now and defeat Ramses II as soon as possible."

Temple of Ramesseum.

"Haha ...? Did you hear that? Nitocris, they're actually talking about resurrecting the dead after we get out! Isn't that ridiculous? People who

Osmandis, sitting proudly on his glorious throne, heard the ridiculous and foolish words and laughed out loud.

Wasn't that Nitocris standing to the right of the throne? She'd clearly been defeated by Professor X and Magneto, yet she stood there unscathed, respectfully facing the King of the Gods she revered, though her face was tinged with anger and shame.

As a spirit summoned by Osmandis in the temple with the power of the gods, although Nitocris is far inferior to the original body and slightly inferior to the servant in terms of strength, Nitocris possesses the same immortality as the temple. As long as the temple exists, she can be resurrected continuously.

"It's only natural that mortals cannot comprehend the power of gods," Nitocris commented sharply.

"Don't let anger cloud your mind, Nitocris." Osmandis stopped laughing, turned towards Nitocris, and spoke in a low and stern voice.

"I'm deeply sorry, Pharaoh Osmandis. My actions have not only tarnished your prestige, but have also inflicted a torrent of wrath upon my mind." Nitocris lowered her head in shame, fully aware of the cause of her loss of composure.

"It's okay. Their strength is far superior to yours. Your defeat was not unexpected to me."

Osmandis shook his head slightly and warned Nitocris sternly, "One or two failures are nothing, but don't let your heart be affected. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing."

"Yes." Nitocris replied respectfully.

Osmandis continued, "Those foreigners may not understand the power of the gods, but do you think that Imhotep, the priest, and Apocalypse, who has lived in this land since ancient times, would not understand what the gods are? Would they be unable to recognize the power of the gods?"

"They knew very well that there was no possibility of resurrection for those who died in this temple, because they were already the property of the gods."

Nitocris was stunned for a moment, then her face showed shock. She said, "You mean..."

"Hmph, it's just a trick of quenching thirst by looking at the plum, using unattainable benefits to induce a momentary passion in fools." Osmandis sneered, with a mocking smile on his face.

Useless work that is not worthy of being shown on the stage.

This is Osmandis's evaluation of Apocalypse and Imhotep's move. Because there is something that can quench thirst by looking at a plum, but what they hope for is impossible to achieve as long as Osmandis does not allow it.

"Souls of the dead who dwell in my great temple! I call upon you, the incarnation of Apib, the spirits of Aswan, the nightmare of Thebes, the guardians of Nubia, the descendants of Anubis. Fight for me."

Following Osmandis's orders, several mummies with guns, red and blue undead like air masses, snakemen with swords and shields, and dark purple werewolves appeared under the throne.

"With all due respect, Pharaoh Osmandis, these undead soldiers are useless," Nitocris said, bewildered, looking down at the undead beneath the throne. Aside from the somewhat formidable Descendant of Anubis, the other undead were merely undead soldiers.

"It's just used to harass the formation. Passing through numerous checkpoints with superior numbers is not the kind of battle I want to see." Osmandis said without comment.

Outside, Tianqi and others passed through the inner courtyard, the Great Hypostyle Hall and the sanctuary of the Temple of Edfu, left the Temple of Edfu, and walked quickly towards the depths of the temple complex.

After walking for a few minutes, the group arrived outside a temple. Without any hesitation, they immediately walked towards the entrance of the temple.

However, when Apocalypse was the first to step into the temple gate, and Magneto and Professor X were about to enter, an accident happened.

A javelin shot from the side, passing a few centimeters in front of Professor X.

"What?" Professor X stopped immediately, and Magneto also stopped in his tracks. Naturally, no one would move forward past Professor X and Magneto.

Everyone turned their heads and saw dozens of undead, mummies, and snake people, led by a dark purple werewolf, rushing towards them from the side of the temple.

The werewolf in the lead was tall and exuded a chilling aura of death, which easily reminded people of Anubis who had previously taken away their companions. However, his strength was much weaker than the previous projection and did not pose much threat to them.

The snake man held a sword-like weapon in one hand and a shield in the other. The undead had no weapons, but they were all in strange shapes. The mummies had javelins, and one of the mummies had no weapon, so I guess he was the owner of the javelin that attacked Professor X.

"You go in first, I'll take them out."

As Cyclops spoke, he took off his red quartz eyepiece, and his murderous gaze turned into a red particle beam, shooting towards the Descendant of Anubis.

However, the descendant of Anubis did not stop to dodge, but just stretched out his claws to block his chest.

It obviously underestimated Cyclops's power, because the particle beam it fired took only two seconds to penetrate its claws and shoot towards its heart.

The descendant of Anubis quickly dodged, but its speed was no match for Cyclops's gaze, and he quickly aimed at it again.

At this time, other undead also rushed towards Cyclops and others, but Cyclops just looked around, and the particle beams released from his eyes turned most of the undead into ashes.

Facing Cyclops' particle beam, the Descendant of Anubis swayed left and right, jumped up and down, and moved like a snake, trying to avoid Cyclops' attacks and attacking Cyclops. However, Cyclops' well-tested eyesight could always capture the figure of the Descendant of Anubis and force him back.

Seeing that Cyclops had the absolute upper hand, Professor X felt relieved and continued to walk towards the temple gate. The others also entered the temple gate one after another.

However, due to the interference of the mummy's spear, the mutants had to divide and conquer several times before they could all enter the temple. Because of this, when everyone entered the temple, they suddenly discovered that the others who had entered the temple a few steps ahead of them were not in the temple they were in.

After Tianqi stepped into the gate of the temple, he looked back as if he had sensed something, but saw that there was a gap outside the gate behind him, and the people following him had disappeared.

"Space transfer?" Tianqi thought to himself, but immediately shook his head, "No, it should be the temple that is being transferred."

In another temple, Magneto walked into the temple and found that the magnetic field had changed. He turned his head and found that the location of the temple had changed.

Not only Apocalypse and Magneto, but also Professor X and Quicksilver, Imhotep, Phoenix, Hellboy, and Storm were separated and entered into five different temples, and they each discovered this situation.

In the temple of Ramesim, in front of Osmandis's throne, a large, colorless screen appeared in the air.

The screen was divided into eight areas, showing scenes in seven temples, as well as Cyclops outside a temple who had just defeated the last descendant of Anubis and was walking towards the temple gate.

"Power of the gods that reside within the temple. In the name of the Pharaoh, I grant you your correct names!"

Osmandis supported his head with his left hand, extended his right index finger, and pointed at the picture of the temple where the Phoenix Girl was, causing ripples.

"Sacred Beast Sereket."

Huge scorpions gradually gathered in the inner courtyard of the temple. Their round mouths full of sharp teeth were bigger than Phoenix Girl's head. Their strange shapes scared Phoenix Girl.

"Etheric Anubis."

Osmandis pointed his finger at the image where Imhotep was. The power of death from the underworld surged from the floor of the temple. A creature with snake heads growing on either side of its head and a body like a jackal appeared in front of Imhotep. The aura of death emanating from its body made Imhotep pale.

"Aether Apophis."

The third temple that Osmandis pointed at was the temple Cyclops had entered. The evil divine power formed into a long snake with two legs and claws like blades, coiled around the pillars of the Great Pillar Hall, and cast evil glances at Cyclops, bringing him considerable pressure.

"Holy Carver - Half-Dragon Nut."

The fourth place Osmandis targeted was Storm's temple. The temple's power transformed into a half-dragon with a dragon's tail and a human body. The half-dragon floated in the temple's inner courtyard, gazing coldly at Storm below. As she struggled to mobilize the power of the celestial phenomena, Storm couldn't help but hold her breath.

"Saint Carved Dragon - Half Dragon Gebu."

The fifth target was the temple where Hellboy resided. The orange half-dragon, constructed from the power of the earth, landed heavily on the temple's sanctuary, its weight shaking the ground.

"Saint Carved Dragon - Shulong."

The sixth target was the temple where Professor X and Quicksilver were. The wind power within the temple transformed into a slender blue dragon, which circled in the air above the inner courtyard. Its swift movements triggered a violent storm, forcing Quicksilver to hug Professor X and run towards the temple.

"The Holy Dragon King - Atum Dragon King."

The seventh temple to be lit was the one where Magneto resided. Twilight emerged from the statue of Atum and transformed into a noble dragon of light in the center of the temple.

"Ether Sobek."

The last temple to be touched was the one where Apocalypse was. The powers of earth, water, fire, and wind were channeled from the four temples into Apocalypse's temple, combining into a streamlined, cheetah-like form before Sobek's statue.

The Pharaoh sacrificed the power of the temple and summoned eight Egyptian god-monsters. ...

"Let me see if you can give me a wonderful fight. You must make me happy, otherwise this game will be too boring."

Osmandis spoke arrogantly and jokingly, looking down at the game that he had single-handedly led.

Nitocris remained silent and stood quietly to the side of the throne.

In the Seleket Temple, the Phoenix Girl soared into the sky, and a scorpion tail passed under her feet, piercing a hole in the wall behind her.

Because she does not have strong enough attack ability, the Phoenix Girl has been entangled with the sacred beast Sereket for some time, but still cannot defeat the sacred beast Sereket.

However, the ability of the sacred beast Sereket is rather mediocre. Although it has a scorpion venom that can kill with one blow, it cannot hit the Phoenix Girl.

The Phoenix Girl used telekinesis to stimulate the thermal molecules, creating a rapid shock wave that slashed towards the scorpion tail below.

The sacred beast Selkeit was hit by the thermal shock wave before it could retract its tail. The shell of its tail turned red and a large part of it was sunken.

But that's all. The Phoenix Girl's attack is fatal to humans, but to the non-human sacred beast, it can only cause it pain for a while.

This is the difference between humans and animals. Sometimes, an attack that is fatal to humans is just a painful blow to animals.

When the Phoenix Girl was fighting with the sacred beast Selekt, no one noticed that the flow of time in the Selekt Temple had slowed down at some point, not even the Phoenix Girl herself who was in the temple could feel it.

This was Osmandis's handiwork. As for the Phoenix Girl, who was an uncertain factor, Osmandis had three things he couldn't do: he couldn't be defeated, couldn't face a fatal crisis, and couldn't leave the temple.

Otherwise, once the power of the Phoenix erupts, even the King of Gods will feel a headache.

In the Temple of Anubis, Imhotep hung his head and murmured to himself: "Please forgive me, God Anubis."

The Ether Anubis, who was not far in front of him, heard Imhotep's prayer without any reaction. No, it cannot be said that there was no reaction at all. At least its wolf head spewed out a nest of scarabs, and the snake heads on both sides of the wolf head spewed out the curse of death.

After all, it is just a condensation of divine power, and it will not respond to anything except Osmandis's orders.

Imhotep also has the ability to control scarabs, but he does not have enough authority to control the scarabs released by Ether Anubis, and the curse of death is not something he can resist.

Imorton took out the Golden Sutra of the Sun, and a golden light emanated from the Golden Sutra, covering Imorton's body with a layer of golden gauze.

The scarab automatically avoided Imhotep, and the curse of death hit the golden gauze robe, splashing layer upon layer of ripples.

The Black Book of the Dead and the Golden Book of the Sun are no longer of much use.

Imhotep knew this well.

The Golden Scripture of the Sun is a sacred artifact left by the sun god Ra in the human world. Although it can be used as a magic book at ordinary times, if you want to unleash its true power, you must pray to the sun god.

But in this case, is it possible to pray to the sun god and gain the power to challenge the sun god?

It would be normal if the Golden Scripture of the Sun did not respond to his prayers. Even if it released the power of the sun god to burn him, it would not be strange.

The Black Book of the Dead is a sacred artifact left by the god of death Anubis in the human world. Like the Golden Book of the Sun, the enemy he is facing now is the incarnation of Anubis, so it is impossible for the Black Book of the Dead to be useful.

The magic book, which was originally a trump card, has now become a useless piece that is neither tasty nor worth throwing away.

Ether Anubis had already pounced forward, and the snake heads on both sides of the wolf head were also spewing out death curses.

Facing the Ether Anubis rushing towards him, Imhotep did not run away. His face became heavy, as if he had made a difficult decision.

Imorton's face began to grow larger, stretching freely like rubber, and his mouth grew larger and larger, almost able to swallow the Ether Anubis in one gulp.

"Great Lord of Power, King of the Desert, God of Storms, my Lord Set, I who defy death pray to you here. Please grant me the power to fight against death!"

The highest level sandstorm, commonly known as the black storm, gushed out of Imhotep's open mouth like huge waves.

Prayers to the evil god, blasphemy against the god of death, and spells against death rang out, and the high-spirited words echoed in the Temple of Anubis.

The Black Storm is a killing technique that evolved from the legend of Set killing Osiris, the ruler of the underworld and judge of death. It is usually used to fight against the messengers of the god of death, but few people use it because anyone who dares to blaspheme the god of death will be cursed by the god of death and regarded as a demon by the gods.

Imhotep was now at his wit's end, so he activated this spell.

The black storm swept towards Ether Anubis, and in the blink of an eye it expanded to fill the entire temple.
