Chapter 86 The God Who Wanted to Scam the Wheel-Turner
Chapter 86 The God Who Wants to Trick the Reincarnators
Luo Li's changing expression was noticed by Ades Bay, the leader of the gravediggers sitting opposite her. "Captain Luo, are you alright?"
"It's alright, but I just received a new divine decree, and I have some bad news for you."
Seeing Luo Li's serious expression, Ades Bay jokingly comforted her, "Bad news? What could be worse than the news that Cairo has been taken over by the Death Legion?"
Seeing Ades Bay's optimistic expression, Luo Li deliberately downplayed it and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the Scorpion Emperor Massayus has been resurrected."
"Oh, Scorpion... wait, you're saying Emperor Massaius the Scorpion has been resurrected?!"
Ades Bay couldn't sit still any longer and repeatedly asked Luo Li to confirm whether the news was true or false.
"This is a divine decree, of course it's true!"
Luo Li wasn't lying to Ades; after all, the name 'God' also contains the word 'god.' And to those unaware of the truth, the God's abilities would seem like those of a god.
Although Ades did not believe in the god Luo Li spoke of, according to legend, it wouldn't be long before they could verify whether the Scorpion Emperor Massayus had truly been resurrected.
Therefore, Ades Bay chose to believe Lori. After all, even if someone wanted to deceive him and the gravedigger, they would have to come up with a plausible reason that wouldn't be easily exposed.
"Scorpion Emperor, I need to return to the Oasis to gather my people. What are your plans, Central Continent Team? Why don't you come with me?"
Ades Bay wanted to suggest that the Middle-earth team go with him to the oasis where the gravediggers had lived in seclusion for generations, but Lori refused and instead showed him the drastically changed Hamunaptra.
"You... is this why you weren't allowed in before?"
Looking at the familiar under construction and the magic circle that shimmered with mysterious light, Ades Bay immediately understood why the Middle Continent Team had specially built a temporary base outside Hamunaptra, the city of the dead, to receive him and the accompanying gravediggers.
If he hadn't learned that his formidable enemy, the Scorpion King Massayaus, had been resurrected, Ades Bay would surely have rallied the Gravekeepers to crush the Middle-earth and Indian teams together.
"Ahem. We had no choice. The Indian team was summoning the Death Legion in Cairo, and our Central Continent team had to find a way to counter it. And now, isn't this a lucky coincidence? This magic fortress is about to be completed, and it will be our main force against the Scorpion Emperor and the Indian team!"
Luo Li used magic projection to show Ades Bay the complete appearance of the magic fortress Hamunaptra after its completion, as well as its combat methods. Ades was greatly shocked and almost couldn't resist raising his scimitar to kill Luo Li.
"You...you'd better never show your faces in Egypt again after this is all over!" After touring the entire magic fortress, Adez Bay mounted his horse, left with those words, angrily cracked his whip, and led his men away from this place of trouble.
After Ades Bay left, Chu Xuan stepped out from the group of familiars and said calmly, "It's unbelievable that he didn't make a move."
Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Luo Li rolled her eyes, thinking that he still hadn't worked enough overtime and still had the leisure to think about these things. She would definitely give him double the amount of work after the meeting. "Stop lamenting. Is everyone else here?"
Chu Xuan suddenly felt a chill and immediately replied, "Everyone, including the newcomers, is here. We're just missing you, the team leader."
"Let's go then."
Luo Li and Chu Xuan went together to the meeting venue.
Upon arrival, the restless Zheng Zha asked in rapid succession, "Did you hear the message from the Supreme God? What's going on with the change in the main quest?"
Luo Li and Chu Xuan each found a seat and sat down. "Zheng Zha, don't rush, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Zheng Zha took a deep breath, sat back in his seat, and said, "I just asked Zhang Jie, and he said he hadn't encountered this situation before, so he couldn't give us any advice."
Upon hearing this, Luo Li looked at Zhang Jie, and after seeing him nod, she said, "I understand. Let's talk about the current matter now. The change of the main quest is the decision of the God, and we can't interfere. We can only try to complete it. Do you have any suggestions?" As soon as she said this, everyone present immediately began to discuss it. While watching her companions sticking to their own views and trying to persuade others, Luo Li was also racking her brains to think.
If the main god's mission is to kill the Scorpion Emperor Masyaus, then she has already sent people to find the Spear of Judgment.
The problem is that the main god's mission is to prevent the demise of ***.
To be honest, when Luo Li received the notification from the main god, her first reaction was that Anubis, the god of death, was about to descend.
After all, both the Death Legion and the Scorpion Emperor are clearly related to Anubis, the God of Death.
But Luo Li felt something was off. If it really was Anubis, the god of death, why would the main god use *** instead when the clues were so obvious? It was clearly a trap.
...If it's not Anubis, the god of death...it can't be Osiris, the god of the underworld, can it...?
Just as Luo Li was recalling which other gods in Egyptian mythology were associated with death, the others had already come to the conclusion that either Anubis, the god of death, or Osiris, the god of the underworld, was about to descend. Only Chu Xuan frowned and remained silent.
Seeing this, Luo Li took the initiative to ask Chu Xuan what he thought.
"Something's not right. Putting aside why the chief god would use *** instead of the name of Anubis, the god of death, or Osiris, the god of the underworld, when the clues were obvious."
There is no reason for these two to descend to earth by simply referring to Egyptian mythology.
In mythology, Osiris was unable to remain on Earth after his resurrection and had to go to the Underworld to become its ruler, so I believe it is impossible for him to descend to Earth.
Anubis, the god of death, also needs to be discussed in terms of his divine role: guardian of the dead, lord of the graveyard, god of mummy making, and guide to the underworld.
At the same time, they are also the supervisors who ensure fairness in the process of judging souls.
Do you really think a deity whose functions are entirely related to the dead and who is known for his impartiality would willingly break the balance between life and death and descend to earth?
Chu Xuan's rebuttal made most people fall into deep thought, and upon careful consideration, they increasingly felt that what Chu Xuan said made a lot of sense.
However, the child prodigy Xiao Honglu discovered a loophole in Chu Xuan's words.
"Brother Chu, what you said makes a lot of sense, but those are all Egyptian mythology from the real world, right?"
But the situation is different in this world. In the real world, neither Egyptian mythology nor preserved history contains a figure like Masayaus, the Scorpion King.
Upon hearing this, Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses. He hadn't expected that it would be Xiao Honglu, a mere child, who had discovered the flaw in his deduction.
"You're right. Everything I said is indeed based on Egyptian mythology in the real world."
Although the mythology of this world may differ somewhat, I maintain my hypothesis that the being to descend is neither Anubis, the god of death, nor Osiris, the god of the underworld.
Chu Xuan readily admitted the flaws in his speculation, but insisted on the conclusion of his speculation.
