Infinity, our Zhongzhou team has a bright future.

Chapter 103 Zhan Lan: I am 'Horus of the Human World'

Not long after, Zhan Lan, who had tried to contact that person through prayer, returned to the control room with the Sun Bible, bringing Luo Li two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The good news was that Horus had responded to her. The bad news was that Horus said his previous incarnation as Zhanlan on Earth had been discovered, and he was now under surveillance by several gods and unable to offer any help.
Luo Li was not disappointed by this, after all, Horus had said when he first appeared that he could not interfere in the human world because of the covenant between the gods. As for Set, he was originally a god who was banished because of his defeat, so naturally he would not abide by the covenant between the gods.

After a period of patient waiting, Chu Xuan and the others led the seven tomb guardians into the control room. The youngest of them was Ades Bay. Just as Luo Li saw him and was about to greet him...

Suddenly, the six gravediggers, their hair already white, knelt down before Zhan Lan, piously chanting things like, "Horus of the human world, we, the descendants of sinners, are guilty. Please forgive us," leaving Zhan Lan bewildered.

To be honest, Luo Li didn't expect such a situation to suddenly appear. She immediately looked at Ades Bay, the leader of the tomb guardians, and asked him with her eyes what to do.

Then an elder tomb keeper noticed that Ades Bay dared to stand before Janlan, the Horus of the mortals, and quickly and forcefully pulled him down to kneel.

As Ades Bay looked at the Horus mark on Zhan Lan's forehead, he vaguely saw a deity with a falcon's head and a human body, with a sun disk on its head, behind it.

The next moment, Adez Bay knelt down with extraordinary piety, no longer harboring any resentment towards the Middle-earth Team, but instead believing that their actions were guided by Horus.

Zhan Lan also noticed Horus's brief appearance. Although she didn't know what the great man meant, she knew she couldn't explain herself now. In the eyes of the tomb keepers, she had truly earned the title of Horus of the human world.

Although Zhan Lan was very unhappy about being used as a substitute for Horus by the tomb keepers, she had to admit that this identity was indeed useful. As soon as she opened her mouth, the tomb keepers elders would tell her all sorts of secrets.

Regardless of whether those secrets are helpful to the Central Continent Team, at least their devotion is impeccable, which makes Zhan Lan, who was born in the new era, feel very uncomfortable.

However, Zhan Lan, who had a deep understanding of Egyptian mythology, also knew the meaning of the title Horus among humans. When facing the tomb keeper kneeling in front of him, no matter what he thought in his heart, he always maintained a solemn expression on his face, for fear that any change in expression would cause things to develop in a bad direction.

After a question-and-answer session to confirm that the tomb guardian elder had not missed any key information, Zhan Lan ordered Chu Xuan and Qi Teng to take them to rest.

Knowing that Zhan Lan was putting on an act, Chu Xuan and Qi Tengyi cooperated, first thanking Horus of the human world for his kindness, and then leaving with the tomb keeper.

After they walked away, the command room was filled with laughter. Zheng Zha even imitated the tone of the tomb keeper and repeated the words they used to praise Horus, which made Zhan Lan so angry that she wanted to pick up the cross and smash it on Zheng Zha's head.

But just as Zhan Lan was about to take action, she suddenly thought of a better idea. So she continued to maintain the solemn expression on her face and secretly used divine power to give herself special effects.

"Horus among men. Is that a funny title?"

When Zhan Lan, radiating a golden glow like the sun, stared at him and asked if it was funny, Zheng Zha, like a duck caught by the neck, let out a 'quack' and could no longer laugh.

After successfully intimidating Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan turned her attention to the others. Under Zhan Lan's gaze, everyone who had just laughed felt uneasy, except for Luo Li, who boldly met her eyes without flinching.

The two stared at each other for almost a minute before Zhan Lan finally couldn't hold back any longer. She raised her hand to rub her facial muscles, which were stiff from maintaining the same expression for so long, and asked, "Luo Li, how did you find out?" To this, Luo Li commented, "You acted very well, but you lacked the invisible pressure that Horus had when he possessed you."

“I see. After all, His Highness Horus is a true god, and I can’t learn that kind of oppressive power.”

After learning the reason from Luo Li, Zhan Lan was quite open-minded. She was just an ordinary person who was chosen by the main god by chance, and she was definitely not as good as Horus, the true god. She was satisfied as long as she could fool Zheng Zha and the others.

At this moment, Zheng Zha and the others realized that they had been fooled by Zhan Lan. They couldn't believe that Zhan Lan, who should have been a gentle and considerate nanny, would do such a thing.

Manavia, watching the farce among the Central Continent Team members, felt genuinely envious, thinking how wonderful it would be to be a member of the Central Continent Team.

But she knew that was impossible. Even if the God of War allowed her to transfer teams, she would never be accepted by the Central Continent Team because of her past betrayal.

After adjusting the atmosphere, once Chu Xuan and Qi Teng returned, Luo Li stopped everyone's playful antics and made a suggestion.

"Alright, stop fooling around. The elder of the tomb guardian has already asked, and we now know that the only way for Seth to return to the human world from the underworld is through the gates of the underworld."

The Gate to the Underworld is indeed merely a gateway connecting the human world and the underworld. Anyone wishing to leave the underworld must exit through this gate. However, during this process, the Gate to the Underworld still requires anchor points to maintain its connection with the human world.

So, what do you think would happen if we threw the anchor point into the Underworld through the gates the instant the gates opened, before Seth emerged?

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately astonished, but upon careful consideration, they realized that the idea was indeed feasible, as long as it could prevent Set from descending.

The only one who thought this method wouldn't work was Manavia, but she knew she had no right to object and could only pray that the Middle Continent team would be gentle when throwing her into the Gates of the Underworld.

At this point, after careful consideration, Xiao Honglu realized that Luo Li's method would be extremely difficult to implement.

"Wait, if the Gate to the Underworld is just a door, then when Seth wants to come out after the door is opened, wouldn't it be just like when we go out every day, we can just take one step out of the house?"

And think about it: if someone tries to force their way into your house when you're about to leave, you'd definitely stop them. But the difference is that Seth is a true god, while we're just ordinary people with some abilities. How are we supposed to overcome Seth's obstruction and throw the anchor point into the underworld?

Luo Li, however, gave a thumbs up and said confidently, "No problem! We can just ram the Hamunaptra Magic Fortress through it!"

【Caw! Blasphemy!】
