Planner of Age of Heroes

"Oh~ You must be the Wenshu that my little Yanzi mentioned. You look like a really heroic and good girl. Don't worry, I will take good care of you on this trip to Egypt."
Liu Xiu nodded, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed slightly, making a Han ritual with his hands, "Then I'll trouble you to take care of me during this trip."
"Based on what you said, I will definitely take good care of you. You can just call me Sister Ruonan. I didn't expect you to be interested in Han culture. How come such a good girl didn't join the army? But I'm not the kind of woman who forces people to change their ambitions!"
Zhao Ruonan blinked at Liu Xiu and then raised her thumb. "There's nothing wrong with mud and water. There are 360 professions and every profession has its own top talent. Just do your best in the things you are interested in and leave no regrets."
Liu Xiu nodded. That's right. There's nothing humble about dealing with soil and water. Didn't the Chinese nation rise step by step from the stage of facing the loess and back to the sky? Just don't leave yourself any regrets.
Zhao Ruonan patted the two men on the shoulders, then hailed a taxi and headed straight to the airport. Because the travel tickets they had were free tickets, other team members who went through a legitimate travel agency would wait for the three of them directly at the airport.
After getting on the plane, Xia Yan put on an eye mask on his face, and planned to have a good sleep before sneaking into the bathroom on the flight to play the disaster prophecy. This could be considered as a way to avoid suspicion. After all, on this plane, an "ordinary person" like him would not have the ability to post the video on the Internet.
When the plane entered a stable flight phase, Xia Yan quietly left his seat, went to the bathroom, locked the bathroom and turned on the system.
At the same time, I kept praying that this disaster would never happen in Egypt!
It seemed that God heard Xia Yan's prayer, but misheard the content of the prayer. This time the prophecy did happen in Egypt, but it was just a Class C event. The system named the event "Cultural Relics Thief". It did not seem to be an abnormal creature that caused a major disaster, but was done by an illegal psychic.
As for the existence of this kind of existence that specializes in destroying culture and its appearance in the prophecy, whether the affected countries should be happy or sad is a matter of opinion. After all, if only historical relics were affected, and there was no large-scale building damage and casualties, it does not seem unacceptable.
But to another extent, their losses were definitely not light, and they don’t even have a way to recover.
The museum is quiet late at night. People who patrol here at night have to be extremely alert, because here are the spiritual pillars of their country. If these cultural relics are destroyed completely, then the history of their country may be manipulated at will.
"You have no actual evidence to prove your history."
The managers of this country don't want some guys to say this to themselves, even if the once glorious civilization has been broken in their bodies...
The security guards held flashlights in one hand and guns in the other. They were scattered throughout the museum, carefully checking the door locks of each counter. However, when they turned around inadvertently, some gold jewelry disappeared without a trace.
From some small ornaments and utensils buried with the dead to the noble golden mask, an invisible hand stuffed all of them into its pocket. Even several mummies disappeared. Among these mummies was a famous pharaoh - Ramses II.
In just a moment, these cultural relics with special significance disappeared from the spot, leaving behind a card with a childish smiley face on it.
When the security guards came back from their patrol and discovered that the valuables were stolen, it was too late to sound the alarm. In an alley, a man wearing a mask and a thief's costume was fiddling with the cards in his hand. If you look closely, you will find that the patterns on the cards are exactly the missing artifacts in the museum.
Looking at the bustling city, the thief simply bowed slightly, then fiddled with the cards in his hand and disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind a sentence, "You must hand these things over to the client as soon as possible."
Looking at the disaster warning video in front of him, Xia Yan raised his eyebrows. He always felt that it was a bit strange. If it was just like this, it should not be enough for the Savior System to issue a prophecy. Could it be related to the client mentioned by this psychic?
This was the first time Xia Yan had seen a disaster that was not caused by natural disasters but by man-made disasters. For a moment, Xia Yan didn't know how to deal with it. After all, this trailer looked like the prologue of a movie, the 0th episode of an animation.
Before the system could continue to reflect the knock on the toilet door, I heard an old lady's voice outside, "Hello, are you almost there?"
Xia Yan quickly stood up, pressed the flush button of the bathroom, opened the door, and embarrassedly apologized to the auntie outside the door. The auntie looked at Xia Yan's returned seat, then looked at the bathroom without any smell, raised her eyebrows, and always felt that boys nowadays are weird.
Chapter 26: Things are taking a strange turn
Xia Yan, who had no idea that he was being defined in a strange way, had already returned to his seat. He asked the stewardess for a small blanket, covered himself with it, closed his eyes, and while falling asleep, he kept thinking about the inexplicable weird feeling predicted by the system.
If he had not been interrupted just now, perhaps Xia Yan would have figured out what was going on, but unfortunately, he was unable to catch the flash of inspiration that just occurred to him.
The old lady who had just knocked on the door had come back at this moment, and was whispering to her companions about her experience. After all, Xia Yan was a psychic, and although he had no combat power, when he was awake and the distance was not too far, he could still easily capture the conversation.
That’s right, the auntie was a member of the same tour group as them. Except for Xia Yan and the other three who were young people, the others were middle-aged people of this age. Fortunately, most of them were asleep. I hope the rumors will stop at the wise.
Listening to the aunt's various speculations, Xia Yan rolled his eyes silently, then took out earplugs from his pocket and put them in his ears.
As for whether the plane will encounter any malfunctions during the flight, that's a joke. This is a world where abnormal events occur frequently, and basically all means of transportation have been specially reinforced.
Instead of worrying about the plane malfunctioning, it is better to worry about them encountering abnormal events in mid-air. The abnormalities occurring in the sky will not be small in scale, and aircraft will generally plan routes in advance to dodge them. This is the experience that people in this world have gained after decades of exploration, and there will be no problem.
Otherwise, the human race would have been reduced to only a few surviving.
Anyway, after a good night's sleep, we should be almost in Egypt.
As soon as they got off the plane, they could feel the change in climate. Even the smell in the air seemed a little strange. Looking up into the distance, they could not see the city boundaries and the pyramids in the desert yet, but they could already feel that they had set foot on foreign land. It was a wonderful experience.
"Oh! Look, look!", a fashionable middle-aged woman, holding a mobile phone with a cover covered with various crystals, couldn't help but pull her friend next to her, her eyes full of excitement.
"I didn't expect that not long after we got on the plane, a prediction of the next abnormal event appeared on the Internet, and it happened in Egypt. It doesn't seem to be harmful to humans. Do you think the tour guide will give us time to watch it? After all, this time it seems to be a man-made disaster instead of a natural disaster~"
Another middle-aged woman nearby took a look at the video on the Internet, raised her eyebrows slightly, then stretched out her hand and waved it gently, with a smile on her face, "You see, it's obviously evening now. Evening is our free time, and the tour guide can't control us."
"You can see that this scene was captured at the right time. This tells us exactly when we should go to join in the fun. I think this trip to Egypt is totally worth it."
Several middle-aged women were talking and laughing together, attracting the attention of everyone around them. The tour guide looked at his phone and said to them in a panic, "Aunties, you should understand how dangerous and terrifying anomalies are. Even if it is just a man-made disaster, the fact that it can be predicted means it is extraordinary. Please don't join in the fun."
The aunties looked at the tour guide, looked at each other, and then waved their hands, "Okay, okay, we got it."
Seeing that the aunt was obviously perfunctory, the tour guide was a little panicked. If something happened in a foreign country, he would be sold to an underground hotel to be a gigolo, and it would take him ten years to pay off the compensation!
At the same time, the tour guide couldn't help but curse in his heart, why didn't he show up earlier or later, but at this time did an abnormal incident happen, and the level was not high, and elements like thieves were added. Isn't this just to attract people to watch?
The tour guide was already prepared to spend the next few nights drinking coffee and watching the hotel gate to prevent these aunties from getting involved in this matter.
On the other hand, Xia Yan was already thinking about which heroic spirit he should call out to cause trouble this time. This is Egypt, and next, the mummy of a certain pharaoh will be stolen by a thief. It would be a shame not to summon that pharaoh, but that pharaoh needs too many recognition points.
So...how about trying to summon the Pharaoh first, and then not giving him the power of a full-fledged heroic spirit? As long as he has a few more numerical values than a normal person, it should be enough to deal with the Phantom Thief incident. As for the Pharaoh's full power, you can slowly unlock it with the recovered recognition points. After all, solving the Phantom Thief incident can recover certain recognition points.
Moreover, if the power is given to the Pharaoh in layers, his working hours can be shortened a lot. After all, he is traveling. If he does not communicate with others for a long time and is alone, it will always seem extremely strange.
This incident was not only found strange by Xia Yan, but comments on the Internet were basically the same.
Most netizens think that this prophecy is a bit exaggerated, but some netizens believe that human history and culture are extremely precious treasures. If even these disappear, human beings will be like rootless duckweed, which is the most unimaginable disaster for mankind.
[So no matter what, we must ensure that human history will not be affected in any way! This is the purpose of the prophet telling us about this abnormal event! ]
[But I still think it’s a bit of an exaggeration...]
[As an Egyptian, I am very grateful to the prophet for doing this. You know, we are very concerned about history now.]
[Is there no one thinking about how to catch that thief? ]
[That's obviously a psychic, and who knows if he has any killing power? How could someone without any skills do anything? Most importantly, do you want the unregistered psychic who is hiding secretly to jump out? How can someone be so stupid? ]
[Hurry up and check the Internet. The psychic detective who can see the passage of time by touching objects has issued an announcement! ]
[Is he the famous detective who has many unsolved cases? What did he say?]
[You will know when you go upstairs. You will definitely not be disappointed! ]
Chapter 27: I am now a detective
On the Internet, a young man dressed like Sherlock Holmes has a confident smile on his face.
“I think the fans who opened this video should have already known my purpose. Yes, there is a new fable on the Internet recently. This time the incident was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster.
This is an incident where a thief stole a large number of cultural relics. I believe that the Egyptian officials have begun to prepare for defense, but if I may be frank, this may be prevented, but it is not easy to catch the thief.
Although I don't have any great skills, I am still confident as a detective. This time I will go to Egypt to catch the thief by myself. My fans can wait for my good news and see me in the new international headlines. "
After Xia Yan completed the initial summoning of the Heroic Spirit in the room alone, he left the room and prepared to have lunch with the others. The tour group would go to visit the first attraction in the afternoon, and lunch could be considered a gathering. When Xia Yan arrived at the restaurant, basically everyone was discussing the matter of the Phantom Thief and the detective.
Even Xia Yan didn't expect this to happen. How should I put it? It's getting more and more interesting, maybe I can say that.
Egypt, antiques, thieves, detectives, super powers, with so much information gathered together, it would definitely be a big drama if it were made into a movie.
Now, just like the plot in the movie, it is about to be staged in reality. I guess more and more people will be watching. Looking up at her cousin, Zhao Ruonan also had a very interested expression, "If I, as a Chinese soldier, help the authorities catch the thief during my break, will there be a reward from the Egyptian authorities?"
Xia Yan paused while eating, with a helpless expression on his face, "You don't really want him to get involved in this matter, do you?"
After all, before the sense of incongruity is completely eliminated, there is always a vague sense of danger in this matter.
Zhao Ruonan smiled, "After all, this just happened. Wenshu, do you want to help? I see that you have very well-proportioned muscles. Do you want me to teach you a few tricks? Let's catch the thief together. Don't worry, I will do my best to ensure your safety."
A gleam flashed in Liu Xiu's eyes, she had never had such an experience before, especially catching a thief. Thinking about it carefully, she was actually a little moved. She decided to start her life over again and experience a slightly different life. So the emperor nodded, but as for who would protect whom when the danger really came, it was not certain.
Looking at all the people whose emotions were aroused, Xia Yan sighed and prayed silently that no unexpected situations would occur.
At the same time, in a corner of Cairo, a man wearing a black jacket, gold jewelry, brown sunglasses and gold earrings on his face, crossed his legs, holding a mobile phone in his hand, watching some very popular videos recently, and couldn't help but raised his eyebrows.
"Yu's holy body... is it actually placed in a glass cabinet for people to see? Although it feels good to let people admire it, it is extremely disrespectful to steal the body of the pharaoh without permission."
Ramses II did not think it was too much to have his mummy viewed by others. The reason was very simple. He had the same idea as a certain Jin Shanshan. As the sun god among all gods, even if his body turned into a mummy like that, it would be perfect. It was an honor for ordinary people to be able to view the pharaoh's mummy!
But having one's body stolen is something that is unacceptable. Both the thief and the caretaker will be punished by Pharaoh.
Gently drinking a cup of coffee, enjoying the feeling of the sun shining on his body, listening to the people on the roadside speaking a language he was not used to, the ancient king still sighed. He did not expect that such a glorious era would eventually become a thing of the past. Although the power of his heroic spirit has not yet recovered...
But with his superhuman physical fitness and inherent abilities, he can still catch a mysterious thief.
"I didn't expect that as the Pharaoh, I would actually have the rare opportunity to act as a policeman. But it doesn't matter. It is the king's responsibility to have fun with the people. Let me change my identity a little. Now my identity is a detective, and my title is the Glorious Sun. Hahahahaha!"
The man thought for a moment and stood up, straightening his clothes. "If that's the case, I have to prepare early. At least I have to help the police of this era solve some cases before I can gain their trust. Now that I'm ready to disguise myself as a detective, I have to do it perfectly. The Emperor's privilege is activated - I gain the ability [Investigation and Reasoning]."
Pushing his sunglasses on his face, the man nodded with satisfaction, "This is perfect. Let me see who will steal the holy body of the Pharaoh!"
For the tour group, before the theft occurred, they would continue their trip according to their established plan.
Looking at the pyramids in front of him, Xia Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. These pyramids in front of him were already buildings thousands of years ago during the time of Ramses II. For the Egyptians, walking on the grassland and looking at these pyramids would remind them of the scenes of the ancient dynasty. It is true that everything will become history, giving people a wonderful feeling.
After visiting the pyramids on the bus, everyone went to the Valley of the Kings, which is the true resting place of the pharaohs of the Ramses period. Listening to the tour guide telling stories of the past and the process of discovering a pharaoh's mummy, Xia Yan couldn't help but gather his thoughts.
Speaking of which, I have already summoned the heroic spirit, that Pharaoh, but I don't know what the king is doing now.
At this moment in the police station in Cairo, a man wearing sunglasses and gold jewelry put the files in his hands aside. At this moment, all the clues and reasonings were marked on these files. Some of them had directly marked the criminals, and some had marked out several people. Because the specific information was unclear, only a rough range could be given.
But even so, it is surprising enough.
"Huh, is that all? I have already handled all the cases. Now I can prove that I am capable of participating in your next operation. I think you need a local detective to assist you more than a foreign detective."
The man wearing sunglasses leaned back in his chair. At this moment, he looked like the king of detectives!
Chapter 28: It’s just a part-time job! You can do it!
"The Cairo Police Department in Egypt responded to the prophecy on the Internet. This time, the Egyptian Police Department invited a genius detective who had solved all the grade teaching cases to deal with this attack by the thieves. According to official information, this detective handled all the cases that the police had failed to handle in just half a day.
We believe that a detective with such ability will not lose to the Internet celebrities. The glory of Egypt should be in the hands of our own Egyptians. Below we will play the extremely confident speech of the detective codenamed Glorious Sun. "
Because this matter has attracted more and more attention, basically any new developments regarding this matter will be reported in the news.
Xia Yan stayed in his room at night, watching the TV in front of him, paying close attention to the development of the situation. Then he saw a very familiar person appear on the TV. The golden eyes that could not be concealed by the brown sunglasses, and the proud posture that seemed to be glowing all over his body...
And the laughter I heard before I saw the figure...
Xia Yan dropped the phone and potato chips in his hand onto the bed. The development of the situation was a bit strange and he needed to calm down.
“Hahahaha—haha! The glory of Egypt should be in the hands of us Egyptians ourselves. Don’t forget that we once had a glorious culture and a brilliant civilization. It is absolutely unacceptable to be inferior to others. I will prove to all the citizens who is the undisputed king of this detective world! Look! I will illuminate your path like the sun!”
Looking at the smiling face as bright as the sun and listening to the incomparably hearty laughter, Xia Yan picked up the remote control in his hand, turned it back a few seconds, looked at the person who appeared on the TV, rubbed his eyes, and confirmed again and again.
...Are you having so much fun doing this?
It will be very difficult for me if you do this.
Xia Yan twisted his hands together, kicked the bed sheets lightly with his feet, rubbed his thighs against each other twice, and bit his lips lightly. His face showed some excitement and impatience, just like the movies of this type that he had seen before. Now if one more element was added, it would be perfect.
If that person were summoned, it would really be like an extremely attractive movie!
But should I use the recognition points that I have finally saved up for a day or two to summon a new Heroic Spirit that does not have the full power of a Heroic Spirit? Or should I prioritize filling up the power of this Pharaoh?
It’s just…seeing this Pharaoh having fun with his people, I feel there’s no need to return the power to him so quickly.
The villains in Xia Yan's mind were still fighting each other, but his hands moved quickly and unconsciously. The golden Pharaoh decoration was outlined on his hand, long purple hair appeared in the description, and there was a pair of purple rabbit ears. Xia Yan did not let go of such distinctive features. The story of revenge, the story of kingship, and the story of sadness appeared in his pen.
Then Xia Yan looked at his finger that had pressed the [Confirm Delivery] button and an awkward smile appeared on his face.
Well...people always get impulsive sometimes.
For example, you bought a bunch of things you don’t need on Double 11, or you accidentally had a midnight snack while on a diet, or you saw a pair of shoes you liked and bought them even though they were very expensive, and ended up keeping them in the shoe cabinet and couldn’t bear to wear them, or like yourself now.
Hey~( ?° ?? ?°)
Anyway, he had already released the heroic spirit, and it was too late to regret now. He might as well enjoy himself and see what Egypt would become next. While thinking this, Xia Yan picked up the potato chips that had fallen on the bed and continued to eat them with a crunchy sound, as if he had just done nothing but watching the TV news.
After eating and drinking, Xia Yan went into the bathroom and took a good shower, then got into the warm bed, as if he had truly forgotten that he had summoned a heroic spirit not long ago.
"Ah sneeze——!"
The purple-haired girl held her scepter with a confused look on her face. The large amount of magic power belonging to the heroic spirit in her body seemed to be sealed. Not only that, her inherent skills were also affected because of the magic power, especially Egyptian magic. How could she exert such powerful power without enough magic power?
Although her physical data that surpassed that of normal humans was retained, as the Queen of Magic, she felt insecure when she couldn't use magic, especially here, which seemed to be a busy city. This vaguely amplified the feeling of uneasiness.
The purple-haired girl used the limited magic power in her body to make a white cloak-like thing on her body. If there were anyone familiar with Egyptian legends, they would immediately recognize that the girl's current outfit was very similar to Medjay. After hiding her true face, the girl took a deep breath and prepared to walk out of the alley.
