Chapter 769 -   Chapter 31 High Priest

  The Black Book of the Dead is indeed a strange book that records all the spells and curses of ancient Egypt. This book records a large number of spells, and most of them are related to the dead. For example, the resurrection spell for resurrecting the dead, the slavery spell for enslaving and driving the dead, and other spells and spells simply dazzled Jiang Ning.

  In contrast, Jiang Ning was also very interested in the Golden Book of the Sun, which is also a book that records the secrets of ancient Egypt. It is said that this book records the rituals used by the ancient Egyptian people for sacrifice and the secrets about gods.

  ...

  If the spells of the Black Book of the Dead tend to be dark, then the spells recorded in the Golden Book of the Sun tend to be positive energy. This can be concluded from the original book. The Black Book of the Dead, which records the resurrection of the dead, does not have a spell to defeat the dead. However, in the Golden Book of the Sun, there is no spell to resurrect the dead, but there is a spell on how to defeat the dead. Therefore, it is easy to infer the functions and attributes of the two books.

  The butler, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke at this time: "Sir, although the witchcraft in this Black Book of the Dead is unique. However, compared with wizards, it still has some shortcomings. There are many limitations. When you become a fourth-level wizard, you will know what powerful witchcraft is!"

  "The key is that I am not a fourth-level wizard yet! Don't forget, I was demoted. Moreover, my soul is traumatized. There is no magic item, or method, to repair the soul. I don't know how long it will take to rely solely on the nourishment of the sea of ​​​​spiritual."

  "Although I have become a wizard, I am just an apprentice. Nearly two hundred years of life cannot be wasted here. Therefore, fully assisting me in repairing the damage to my soul is the first priority. Moreover, I have a vague guess in my heart. There is not enough information to confirm this guess. Everything will wait until I meet Imhotep and talk to him. If you still can't find a way to repair the trauma of my soul, then I can only try that method!"

  "Sir, I firmly believe that you will find a way!"

  Jiang Ning smiled: "Then I'll take your good words, butler!"

  ...

  On the other side, O'Connor, Evelyn, and Jonathan were running for their lives, not noticing when Jiang Ning disappeared.

  "Son of a bitch, there's danger here, turn back!" The hurried American shouted after seeing O'Connor and the other two. O'Connor looked closely and saw countless scarabs coming like a tide. One worker fell down, and in an instant he was devoured by the scarabs swarming from behind!

  "Oh my God!"

  O'Connor was so scared that his soul almost flew away, and he fired several shots at the scarab tide with his shotgun. It only blew up a "wave", and the scarabs behind filled the gap in an instant. Seeing this, O'Connor turned around and ran.

  Afterwards, the three of them jumped onto a high platform and safely avoided the terrifying scarabs.

  ...

  After the scarabs retreated, O'Connor found that Evelyn and Jiang Ning had disappeared. He asked Jonathan: "Did you see where Eve and Ning went?" Jonathan shook his head with lingering fear and pointed to where Evelyn had just stood: "Eve was clearly standing here just now. I don't know where she went."

  "Damn it, one thing after another!" O'Connor cursed, jumped off the platform, and came to where Evelyn had just been. Try to push open the stone door in front of you, or find a mechanism that can move the stone door.

  ...

  After Evelyn fell into the stone door, she came to a corridor and exclaimed repeatedly. Looking carefully at the surrounding situation, she saw a person in front of her. After looking carefully, she recognized that he was one of the Americans: "Mr. Burns, thank God, I found you."

  Burns heard the words and turned around. The empty eye sockets scared Evelyn and made her scream loudly.

  Burns said vaguely: "My eyes, my eyes..."

  Evelyn stepped back repeatedly. At this time, a dry mummy walked out of the darkness. Evelyn was so scared that she kept stepping back until her body touched the wall. She looked at Burns and asked for help: "Please save me!"

  "He bit off my tongue!"

  "Ansuna?" He mistook Evelyn for Ansuna, and then he raised his hand: "Come to my side, Ansuna!"

  ...

  After O'Connor rescued Evelyn, he met Adebe and his Pharaoh guards at the corner.

  "I told you to leave a long time ago, but you refused to leave. Now, the monster has resurrected, and everyone will die!"

  "He was killed." O'Connor said.

  Adebe turned to look at O'Connor and said, "Listen, what you see is not a human at all. He is a monster that has lived in the dark for three thousand years! He will not be injured, will not bleed, will not be thirsty, and will not feel tired."

  "I said, he was killed by me." O'Connor emphasized.

  "Mortal weapons cannot threaten him!" Adebe said, and turned around with his guards into the tomb.

  ...

  "Is there anyone?" The coward Benny looked around at the dark passage, holding the torch in his hand and constantly looking around.

  "Ah!"

  Benny turned around and was frightened by the mummy behind him and screamed. He even threw away the torch, and he kept retreating, and Imhotep kept approaching him.

  Benny pulled out a bunch of amulets from his collar. He held up the cross: "May God protect me, like a shepherd protects his sheep." Seeing that the mummy was still approaching him, he took out the Islamic crescent amulet: "Praise be to Allah! Praise be to Allah! There is no god but Allah (Arabic)"

  ...

  Then he took out the Buddha pendant and said in Chinese: "Please, Bodhisattva, bless me." Seeing that it was still useless, he hurriedly took out the Star of David and said in Hebrew: "&¥#*%..."

  Hearing the familiar language, Imhotep stopped his actions: "Slave language? Maybe I can use you!" He took out a handful of gold from somewhere: "You serve me, and there will be a great reward!"

  Looking at the gold in Imhotun's hand, Benny also forgot what fear was: "Please give orders, Your Highness!"

  "Where are the other holy urns!!!"

  "Imorton!"

  "Hmm?"

  Imhotun turned around and saw a young man in a black robe standing in the darkness.

  "Wizard?"

  Jiang Ning slowly walked out of the darkness where he was hiding and came close to Imhotun: "I want to make a deal with you!"

  "Pagan, you also want to make a deal with me?..." He was speechless because he saw the Black Book of the Dead in Jiang Ning's hand and the key to open the book. He looked at Jiang Ning: "Tell me, what deal do you want to make with me?"

  "I need to know if there is any way to heal the wound of the soul!"

  "Soul?" Imhotun looked at Jiang Ning carefully and smiled: "Your soul is injured, wizard!" After that, he rushed towards Jiang Ning. But...

  Imhotun seemed to hit an invisible wall and bounced back heavily. Before he could get up, a stream of ice spread from his feet upwards, freezing his limbs and torso, freezing him firmly.

  Jiang Ning came to his side, looking down at him, holding the magic wand in his hand: "Even if my soul is injured, I still have a way to kill you! Do you want to try! Your Excellency the High Priest!!!"

  Imhotep didn't dare to act recklessly. He had not yet been fully resurrected, and now he was no match for Jiang Ning. Hearing Jiang Ning calling him the High Priest, he said in confusion: "Do you recognize me? Wizard!" Benny on the side was completely stunned. He never thought that the Chinese who was in the group with O'Connor was actually a wizard. Today, his worldview was severely impacted.

  "You don't need to know how I recognize you, you just need to tell me how to heal the wound of the soul! If you tell me, then I will give you this Black Book of the Dead." Jiang Ning said.

  In order to show his "sincerity", the ice that froze Imhotep gradually melted, and Imhotep stood up: "The soul is very mysterious, not something that mortals can covet. Perhaps, only by asking the great Anubis can your soul be healed."

  "Is there no other way?" Jiang Ning was very disappointed. What kind of person is the God of Death? How can a small mortal make a deal with the God of Death?

  Imhotep was silent for a moment, and said, "Perhaps finding something with a strong life force can repair the soul. However, I have only heard that it can heal the soul, and I don't know whether it can be cured." "

  Butler, did he lie?" Jiang Ning asked the butler, after all, Imhotep's character was really not very good.

  "No, sir. He is telling the truth!"

  Jiang Ning looked at Imhotep deeply. Just when Imhotep thought that Jiang Ning would do something to him, Jiang Ning handed the Black Book of the Dead in his hand to Imhotep. This surprised Imhotep very much. He didn't expect that the wizard in front of him would keep his promise.

  However, Jiang Ning didn't mean that. Since Imhotep was resurrected, the butler once said that there was a strong will watching here. Jiang Ning guessed that perhaps this strong will was the god of death Anubis. No matter whether

  it was the pharaoh or the high priest, no matter what happened during their lifetime, they would be under the jurisdiction of Anubis after death. Although the high

  priest Imhotep was resurrected because of the effect of the spell, he would not be able to be resurrected without the power of the god of death. To put it bluntly, for the god of death, this is just a game, and he is watching the game activities.

  Therefore, in order to leave a good impression on Anubis, Jiang Ning kept his promise! God knows whether he will encounter Anubis in the future, if he asks Anubis for help. The good impression left today may give Jiang Ning some more impression points. If he does not keep his promise, then the conversation with Anubis will be impossible. The god of death will not believe a person who does not keep his promise.

  After getting the answer from the high priest, Jiang Ning walked out. Although he did not get a specific solution, at least he had a choice. In any case, he had to try. If it doesn't work, he can only find Anubis.

  To be honest, Jiang Ning really didn't want to find Anubis. God knows what the character of this god is like? What if, seeing that he is a pagan, not only does he not help, but he kills him, then he will have no place to cry.

  Therefore, Jiang Ning will not ask Anubis for help unless it is absolutely necessary.
