Capítulo 30: Chapter 29 begins "Archaeology"
Entering this ancient city known as the City of Death, O'Connor, Evelyn and others, as well as the group of Americans, can't wait to start digging.
For them, this is a treasure that has been dusted for thousands of years, with countless gold, silver, treasures and historical sites waiting for their excavation.
In particular, the discovery of the existence of Hamunaptra itself is enough to make them successful.
But for Chen Mo, who entered this ancient city, in addition to the power of the sun god that enveloped the entire ancient city and was as warm as the sun, he also felt the endless resentment suppressed under this ancient city.
"It's really amazing resentment, worthy of being a resentful spirit that has been tortured for more than 3,000 years." Chen Mo praised in a low voice, but he didn't want to dig out the source of resentment.
A soul that has been tortured for more than 3,000 years is not something he can deal with now, so the villain in the original book should be left to the destined protagonist to deal with. He just wants to dig two scriptures here and take them back.
So after entering Hamunaptra, Chen Mo just felt the resentment under the earth here, and then found Evelyn who was directing O'Connor and his brother Jonathan to prepare to go deep underground, and asked her: "Miss Evelyn, do you know the location of the statue of the sun god in this ancient city?"
"The statue of the sun god? It should be in that direction." Evelyn heard Chen Mo's request, looked up and pointed out the direction for Chen Mo: "According to legend, the Golden Sutra of the Sun should be buried at the feet of the statue of Anubis, the god of death. Mr. Chen, don't you plan to dig the Golden Sutra of the Sun?"
Faced with Evelyn's curiosity, Chen Mo just spread his hands: "Although I am curious about the scripture, you and that group of Americans are here for this book. I don't think I can snatch it from you, so I plan to see what is buried under the feet of the sun god. After all, the Golden Sutra of the Sun is buried under the feet of the statue of the god of death. Maybe there are some good things under the feet of the statue of the sun god?"
"Wow! Great idea, then I wish you good luck!" Before Evelyn spoke, his brother Jonathan couldn't wait to let Chen Mo leave.
It wasn't that Jonathan had any bad thoughts about Chen Mo. He just thought that one more person would mean one more person to share the treasure they found, so he hoped that Chen Mo would not go with them. Chen Mo
didn't mind. After saying thank you to Evelyn, he and Ada Wang walked in the direction Evelyn pointed.
The two soon found the sun statue that was half buried in the yellow sand. Although the huge statue had been eroded by wind and sand, it still stood on this ancient land.
"It seems that it will take some effort to dig it out." Looking at the statue in front of him, Chen Mo raised his eyebrows and signaled Ada Wang to tie up the animals he brought and get ready to start work.
Looking at the statue that was almost half buried by the yellow sand, Ada Wang complained somewhat unwillingly: "Why don't you hire a few workers? Wouldn't it be better to let the workers dig like those Americans? Or just use your magical magic to think of a solution? It would be stupid for the two of us to dig by ourselves."
"Do you think I look like someone who can dig by myself?" Chen Mo made a joke, looked around, but did not use magic, but said to Ada Wang: "There is nothing under the statue, find a place to go down."
Hearing what Chen Mo said, Ada Wang nodded and looked around for a way to go down.
——————————————
The day passed quickly, and when night fell, the three parties settled down in this ancient city and prepared to rest.
Chen Mo and Ada Wang naturally returned to O'Connor and Evelyn with their harvest.
"Hi, Mr. Chen, did you get anything today?" Evelyn greeted Chen Mo enthusiastically and boasted to him, "We had found the location of the Golden Sutra today, but unfortunately the Americans got there first. However, we still dug up a sarcophagus, and inside there is a..."
"A mummy that was tortured, right?" Chen Mo took over Evelyn's words and explained in her surprised eyes, "I found some stone carvings, which recorded that Pharaoh Seti I died from the assassination of a priest. The priest was sentenced to the terrible punishment of 'worm bite' for assassinating the pharaoh, and his body was buried at the feet of Anubis, the god of death."
"Oh my God! That's the murderer who assassinated the pharaoh? No wonder they used cruel punishments that they had never used before!" Evelyn instantly understood what Chen Mo was saying, and a very surprised expression appeared on her face.
But in a flash she quickly became excited again, and said excitedly: "This is a huge discovery in the archaeological world! Mr. Chen, where is the stone carving you found? This is an important archaeological discovery to determine the cause of death of Seti I!"
"On the wall of a cave, but compared to these, I think we need to be more alert tonight." Chen Mo said, looking at O'Connor, and said to him: "Mr. O'Connor, you once mentioned that your troops were attacked here. In fact, the stone carving I found also stated that after the execution of the priest, the successor Ramses II left a Pharaoh Guard to guard the ancient city and the executed priest to prevent it from resurrecting and destroying the world with evil power. What you encountered should be the descendants of this Pharaoh Guard.
I think we are excavating in Hamunaptra so loudly today. I am afraid that the Pharaoh Guards have already received the news and may attack us tonight, so you'd better be prepared."
Hearing what Chen Mo said, O'Connor immediately woke up and remembered what he had done on the way here . Seeing a group of black-clad men on horseback on a cliff, he hurriedly thanked Chen Mo and said, "Thank you for your reminder. I think they should have discovered us. Mr. Chen, why don't you stay with us at night so that we can take care of each other and it will be safer."
Seeing O'Connor say this, Chen Mo nodded slightly and did not refuse: "In that case, I'd better obey your order. Besides, my assistant is also very skilled. If you need any help, you can discuss it with her. We also brought some firearms. You can see if there is anything you can use."
The firearms prepared by Ada Wang were brought out from the Mage Tower. Many of them were good things developed by the Umbrella Corporation in the last world for internal use by the security forces. Compared with O'Connor's firearms that were still in the First World War, they were undoubtedly more powerful.
So even though he knew that there might be an attack from the Pharaoh's Guard at night, Chen Mo did not worry about his own safety. He could just moor the Mage Tower under the ancient city and release his Undead Army to see how the Pharaoh's Guard, who were still wielding scimitars, could resist the Titan tyrants that even modern weapons could not kill.
