Chapter 98: Beat Seth, Me? (Please order first!) (13)

In response to Horus's question, Zhuang Boshi slightly organized his words and described how he and others met the resurrected Imhotep and how they were "forced" to fight him.

How to chase him into Hamunaptra, and seeing Imhotep escape into this place, he rushed into this place in one go.

After that, he was surrounded by a group of demons, fighting and bloody battles, with his life hanging by a thread.

The process of being rescued by two gods in the end.

"What a wonderful adventure," Horus exclaimed. "The dead, the unexpected, the thrills, the battles, the friendships."

"And love, of course," added Hasselt discontentedly.

"Yes, and perhaps love." Horus smiled tolerantly and said, "Imorton, I seem to have heard this name before."

"As the high priest of Egypt, he seems to have committed acts of rebellion and folly in his time, which led to the most cruel punishment."

"Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, when all the gods disappeared one after another, he was resurrected and brought the Ten Plagues to Cairo."

"It seems that the one who is leading all this is Seth."

Fear and hatred flashed in Hassel's beautiful eyes. "He still wants to return to reality?"

"However, Cairo is now occupied by foreign gods. How many humans still obey the Ennead?"

"It would be better if this traitorous city were destroyed by the Ten Plagues, so that those lowly humans would stand in awe of the majesty of Heliopolis!"

Hassel's words made Zhuang Boshi's face freeze.

Although these two seem to be friendly at the moment, they are primitive gods symbolizing nature, representing disaster, rule and royal power.

But he is not an ordinary good god.

"Humanity cannot be blamed," Horus sighed. "It is we who failed to defend our own lands."

"It all stems from my battle with Set, the battle that shattered the earth and destroyed the gods."

"It's not your fault, it's Seth's!" Hassel's voice revealed deep hatred: "It was his ambition and arrogance that ruined everything!"

That’s right, it seems to be my previous guess.

Horus, the god of the sky, Set, the god of strength and desert, Hathor, the goddess of love, and the grievances and hatreds between the three.

These familiar names and the golden and shiny transformation effects make this a movie full of the atmosphere of nouveau riche.

"Gods of Egypt", according to this idea, there may also be "The Mummy", "Indiana Jones" and so on.

Well, it really fits in with the mummy’s worldview.

It seems that Imhotep's soul was controlled by Set, and he fell into this hellish place.

To confirm this conjecture, Zhuang Boshi hinted, "Great Horus, I have heard of Set, the Lord of Strength and God of the Desert, in mythology."

"Out of jealousy, he killed his brother Osiris at a banquet and gouged out your left eye."

"But then you defeated him and took back your power."

"Yes, that's roughly the first half of the story. I lost an eye," Horus said frankly, "but the myths don't record it."

"The second half is the Twilight of the Gods in Heliopolis."

Only then did Zhuang Boshi notice one of Horus' eyes.

The left eye, which was said to be able to see through everything and symbolize wisdom and light, had been cruelly taken away, leaving behind an empty abyss.

Horus tells his story of being a loser with complete honesty and objectivity: "Ever since Set killed my father Osiris, I have been battling him for hundreds of years."

"We had our share of victories and defeats, but he became more powerful than ever by seizing the power of some gods, even a small portion of my grandfather Ra's power."

"At that time, some neutral gods could no longer tolerate his brutality and began to help me resist him."

"But this madman actually brought out Apophis and wants to completely destroy the world."

"In that war, all the gods of Heliopolis fell, and my grandfather Ra also sacrificed his life to kill Apophis." Horus sighed.

"After that war, there were few gods left in the land of Egypt."

"But Set still exists. As long as he lives, the disaster will never stop."

"Before his death, the God of Wisdom, Thoth, left me a message, telling me to use the Eye of Horus and the curse of Hades in the original place of the underworld to completely break the world barrier."

"Then, we can banish him completely."

"Let him never come back."

——What a brutal war it was, all the gods of an entire pantheon were wiped out.

Zhuang Boshi was a little shocked. Seth was really a top traitor. He released the Lord Apophis and then killed his father, brother, wife and colleagues.

Horus said painfully, "But he is still too powerful, after possessing my eyes."

"He was able to cross the world barrier and return to the mortal world."

In mythology, Horus' left eye does symbolize light and foresight.

There is even a version that Horus sacrificed his own eye so that Osiris could become the king of the underworld.

"I had no choice but to burn my body and utilize the final curse of Heliopolis."

"Nail myself here, use myself as an anchor so he can't escape the endless void."

"This period of time between birth and death, converted into mortal time, is almost three thousand years."

Hasel caressed his chest tenderly. Horus looked at the goddess beside him with deep affection using his only remaining eye: "This is my sin."

"But Hassel, she was willing to spend thousands of years to come to this place to accompany me."

Hasel shook his head and said, "Horus, I am the only one left in the mortal world. I cannot endure the loneliness there any longer."

The two gods looked at each other affectionately.

It seems that the ending of the story is not like the plot of the movie. After Set killed all the Egyptian gods, Horus could only drag Set into the deepest part of the underworld.

In the end, when Set was sealed, he died together with Set and was imprisoned together.

It’s just that one has a beautiful woman by his side, while the other - I’m afraid he doesn’t even have anyone to chat with. Will he go crazy?

Zhuang Boshi quickly asked, "Honorable Horus, then why was Set able to cross the barrier and influence Imhotep and control his soul?"

Horus said, "I thought Set would be trapped between worlds for at least ten thousand years."

"But in recent years, the mortal world seems to have generated a great curse and resentment, which has greatly nourished Set and caused his power to continue to grow."

“Therefore, he was able to use certain media to lure Imhotep to open the passage to the underworld.”

"Perhaps it won't be long before he can escape from the cracks in the world and bring great disaster to the human world again."

"No, he will definitely turn the world into a complete desert."

In recent years?
Zhuang Boshi frowned and suddenly thought of the First World War a few years ago, coupled with the Spanish flu, which killed tens of millions of people in a short period of time.

The plot of The Mummy 1 begins after World War I, doesn’t that make sense!

The mastermind behind the seduction of Imhotep has been found, it's you, Set!
Horus looked at Zhuang Boshi and Ming Yanwei: "I thought everything was predetermined."

"But at the last moment, I discovered you in the underworld. This must have been the will of the god Ra. Therefore, I guided you here.

"I believe you can stop Seth."

Zhuang Boshi's polite expression suddenly paused, and a confused expression appeared on his face.

If there is an emoticon, it is the catfish demon in Journey to the West who was assigned to eliminate Sun Wukong and his disciples.

ah? I?
[Triggering side quest: Prevent Set from returning to the world from the Endless Void. Reward: 2 B-level side quests, 10000 points. If the quest fails, the corresponding side quest points will be deducted.]

The Lord God's reminder sounded at that moment, and Zhuang Boshi's mind went blank for a second. When he finally realized what was happening, his face turned green.

Stop the gods, Lord God, do you know what you are saying!

Not to mention the first world where I had to fight Sukuna, now it’s my turn to kill the gods!

Moreover, if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. This world is obviously very complicated. Seth can only make some trouble in North Africa at most, but he has no way of destroying the world.

Zhuang Boshi could no longer pay attention to the pain in his body. He was completely stunned by the Lord God's amazing task.

Zheng Zha’s prediction was right. This time he was going to fight against God.

It doesn't make sense, how could this happen?

Just talking about the 2B level side quests, they are difficult, quite difficult, which means that it requires a huge price to complete.

But it will definitely not match the difficulty of stopping the gods.

Given the current strength of the Zhongzhou team, to stop Seth, at least all members must have A-level quests to match the difficulty.

And this task was obviously issued for himself, because the team is now divided into three teams.

I was trapped in this hellhole and couldn't unite with my companions.

So, is there any other power to borrow from?
"Great Horus, and beautiful Hasseil."

Although in a state of intense shock and speechlessness, Zhuang Boshi could only turn to the two great gods in front of him for help: "Respected Horus and Hasel, my strength has been completely consumed by the demons outside."

"And even if I were intact, I think it would be difficult for me to fight Set."

"It's not that I'm afraid of death, but I'm afraid that I'm alone and powerless to stop Set from returning to the world and causing a world-destroying disaster."

"After all, he is one of the Nine Pillar Gods, and I am just a mortal. I would probably not be able to defeat him in a head-on battle."

If this wasn't the underworld, if the outside wasn't full of demons, if there weren't two gods in front of him, Zhuang Boshi would have run away long ago.

Horus chuckled softly. "Indeed, even when I was in good health, I was still no match for him. Besides, you are just a mortal."

"But three thousand years ago, he brutally seized the power of the gods and also bore their curse."

"And he is still in the endless void outside this world. To return to the mortal world, he must obtain three elements."

"Power, path, and vision."

"In recent years, he has gained enough power in the mortal world."

"He possesses my eyes, able to see through the endless void and see everything that happens on earth."

"Now, he has bewitched the priest named Imhotep and used him as a signpost to find his way back to the mortal world."

"So, just destroy his signpost, which is Imhotep."

"Then he will be countered by the power of the world and miss the opportunity to descend."

"You don't have to be afraid. This time, there's no need to fight him head-on."

In the final analysis, we still have to kill Imhotep, which coincides with the main task. Zhuang Boshi then calmed down and asked a question.

"So where is He now?"

Hassell pointed to the sky. "For three thousand years, he has been trapped in the rifts of the world. This purple sun is the projection of his divine body in the land of darkness."

Zhuang Boshi looked up and saw a strange purple sun emitting evil, heat, and death.

I understand, the sun, the god.

Shooting the sun the day after tomorrow.

If you want to learn how Houyi shoots down the sun.

So, now the best bow in the entire Zhongzhou team is Ming Yanwei’s Windrunner Bow.

Magic metal, compact structure, precise workmanship, and mysterious runes.

Produced by the Lord God, it must be a high-quality product.

——But are you kidding me? Using a C-class weapon to fight against the god Set?

——Horus, are you serious? You want me to play the role of Hou Yi shooting the sun?

——What the hell, is this mission so difficult? This double B-level side quest is even more outrageous than taking turns to fight Sukuna!
——If we can’t complete it, won’t we be trapped here forever?
 Please place your first order and please place your follow-up order!
