Chapter 79 God Eats God

The sacred tree and the big snake were entangled and crashed into the earth, breaking the quicksand.

I was beaten to pieces, but I still clung to the tree branch and didn't let go. I still have a place to stay.

Others don't have such good luck as me.

Li Yuan and Karl, who were very skilled, naturally had no problem and could even pick up a few people from the sunken sand. But those who were on the other side of the tree were directly knocked into the sand and could not be found.

Find it somewhere.

Why are people dying now?

I looked at the endless and soundless desert, and felt cold all over. The few people who had dinner together yesterday sank into the yellow sand today.

The sun was blocked by the storm and the temperature plummeted.

After Jacqueline was helped up, she ran to the inscription on the tree trunk regardless of her injuries. After looking at it, she fell down in despair, muttering something in her mouth.

Lou Shiqi was also very unlucky. He was hanging in the air holding a branch on his hands and knees, and kept complaining, "I know you will get struck by lightning when climbing a tree in a storm."

Although we were almost struck by lightning, we still don’t know whether it was a tree or a snake that caused the lightning.

Before everyone could get up, the thick-skinned snake broke through the sea of ​​sand, swinging its tail and shaking the fallen tree. We watched in fear as the big snake swam around the tree. Now this

The big snake does look like a guardian, but I don't know what it is it is guarding.

The ancient Egyptians believed that animals possess the power of nature. Snakes are regarded as animals that divide day and night, and are in charge of the half of the sky without light. In order to plunge the world into eternal darkness and chaos, the black snake Apep wanted to trap the sun god in the

Night time.

However, the "world besieger" Apep could not trap this tree. The roots of the tree were very deep and long, and they were still stuck in the sand after it fell. It seems that it has always relied on the roots to search for water sources in order to grow upwards.

of.

The big snake entangled itself again. It tightened its body and twisted the tree trunk until it made a chilling cracking sound. Golden liquid seeped out from the tree's wounds.

Everyone was shocked.

This tree has been dead for thousands of years, so why is there still vital sap gurgling out of its dry trunk?

Someone was thrown under the tree because he was unable to stand, and the quicksand opened its mouth and swallowed him. Others had no time to save him, so they had to press themselves tighter to the tree.

Jiang Can crossed his legs on the branch and shot at the big snake with his gun. The mercenaries were also furious.

The black snake ignored the attacks on it and licked the golden scars on the tree with enjoyment. The strong visual impact was just like the death of a god.

Jacqueline stared blankly, the snake's letter almost wrapped her in but it was still motionless, and she uttered a sentence in a daze: "God eats God."

In ancient Egyptian legends, both Anubis and Kongsu once devoured other gods as gods. And isn't Apep's purpose to prevent the resurrection of the sun god and plunge the world into darkness forever?

In response, the sky was obscured by the storm and became dark.

Jacqueline looked ugly, and I broke out in a cold sweat.

"Take advantage of people's danger. If the tree hadn't already died, where would this beast have been?"

Li Yuan stepped on the branch and jumped down. He pulled Jacqueline up and shouted to us at the same time: "Get away from this tree quickly, the snake's target is the tree!"

As expected, the black snake did not look for the living person in front of it, but continued to tighten its body, trying to crush the sacred tree in one fell swoop. At the same time, it greedily rolled the resin into its mouth.

But there was quicksand everywhere, so where could we go? I couldn't tell whether the snake came with the quicksand or if it brought the quicksand.

While still hesitating, the tree trunk finally couldn't bear the weight of the black snake and broke into pieces.

The ancient Egyptian guide now looked like a frightened baby seal, mumbling: "The desert protects ancient Egypt, no matter what way is needed. Even by killing them."

"Sooner or later, if this continues, we will be doomed." Jiang Can spat out bloody spit, staring straight at the snake diving into the sea of ​​sand. "We have to jump over."

The increasingly strong wind wrinkled this crazy idea.

Teacher Bai pulled Meng Weiqing over and said something, and the latter nodded. When the big snake emerged from the sand and wanted to get closer to give the almost shattered sacred tree a final blow, Meng Weiqing took the lead and jumped on its back.

Jiang Can laughed and found the right opportunity to jump over with Teacher Bai. Those foreigners also followed suit.

I was afraid and disgusted when I saw the snake's golden eyes that had been buried underground for a long time and had not seen the light of day. But we need this snake to take us away from this sea of ​​sand. We will jump to it if our hearts are crossed. However, the tail of the big snake

It landed right next to me, so I had no choice but to jump in the opposite direction.

The sacred tree fell apart.

The serpent's purpose has been achieved.

I lay dizzy on a broken piece of wood and watched helplessly as the people clung to the big snake farther and farther in the storm. I didn’t know whether I would win or lose this time.

I was feeling annoyed when I suddenly felt something approaching. When I looked up, I saw a strange face. I was so frightened that I jumped up immediately, and then the fright suddenly turned into anger.

But it was Lou Shiqi who poked his head over from behind me.

"You scared me to death." I breathed heavily and then yelled. "Why the hell are you here?"

"Do you think I want to be here?" Lou Shiqi shouted angrily, "I was hung up on a branch above, and I just came down to see if you were alive or dead!"

I saw that his coat was indeed hanging on a higher branch.

Lou Shiqi walked there as he spoke. The tree trunks undulated with the quicksand, and he couldn't stand steadily, so he simply crawled over with his butt sticking out and took off his clothes.

Although this sacred tree was broken into pieces, each section was large enough, just like a small forest. I bypassed many branches that were thicker than a person before walking to the other end. Lou Shiqi was positive and negative.

He sat there angrily with his back to me.

The current situation is not optimistic, and he is probably very panicked. After all, it is unlikely that 279 will come back to pick us up in Apophis. I suppressed my uneasiness and poked Lou Shiqi on the shoulder.

"what?"

"Don't worry too much, we probably won't die."

"How do you know?" Lou Shiqi didn't care about being angry and jumped up in surprise.

The storm gradually weakened as Apophis left. It should be the battle between Seth and the Serpent of Chaos. But even so, we still have to be very close to hear each other clearly.

"It stands to reason that only objects with a density lighter than quicksand can float on it. This tree trunk is definitely solid, but we haven't been swallowed by quicksand yet." I said loudly, pointing to the other end. "That's because

We were lucky. The tree trunk happened to be hit by the root of the tree, and the two were stuck together. The root of the tree is so long that even if the snake comes back, it won't be able to pull it out."

And even if it was scattered, the inside of the tree trunk was also damaged during the impact, and it is estimated that it will not sink in a short time. It should be able to survive until the quicksand caused by Set's wrath subsides.

After learning that the dog's life could be saved, Lou Shiqi's eyes lit up. When we put it together, we thought it would be safer to simply hang on the root of the tree, so we walked towards the root of the tree together.

After walking only two steps, and just as I was about to get around a branch that was as tall as a person, Lou Shiqi suddenly covered my head with the jacket pocket he was holding in his hand.

I was startled. The visibility was not very high, so it was time to make a joke. I stretched out my hand to lift up the tattered clothes and asked him what he was doing, when I felt some warm liquid splash on my hand.

It seemed to smell of blood. I ripped off the clothes and held them in my hands, staring stiffly at the scene in front of me.

Lou Shiqi stood between me and a tall foreigner. The man's eyes widened in shock, his left hand holding Lou Shiqi's arm, and the other hand holding a knife that was buried in his chest. Lou Shiqi's eyes widened in shock.

Qi Ben lowered his eyes and looked at the handle of the knife. After noticing my gaze, he raised his eyes and looked over, his face full of confusion.

My mind went blank. I watched blankly as the attacker fell backwards and slid down the edge of the broken wood. Lou Shiqi let out a soft "tsk" and tried to withdraw his arm, but stabbed himself.

The man grabbed his arm and refused to let go.

I subconsciously rushed over to catch Lou Shiqi, but I didn't expect that he suddenly stumbled under his feet. I jumped into the air. I watched Lou Shiqi being pulled by the man in panic and falling off the broken tree.

"Lou Shiqi!"

I leaned out and my face was blurred by the wind and sand. I blinked desperately while crawling down the tree branches. There was a sound of breaking through the air behind me. I rolled on the spot.

Charles, who had roasted the raw veal loin for Arnold, came closer through the wind and struck one after another. Someone wanted to kill us. I was trapped next to a broken log and almost got kicked down. See one

When the shot failed, Charles did not hesitate and took out his gun.

My eyes widened.

In the wind and sand, Li Yuan ran over on the tree trunk that was shaking violently due to the sinking, and fought with Charles. After a few gunshots, Li Yuan and I fell into the sea of ​​sand together.

Whether it was luck or unlucky, we bumped into the winding roots of the sacred tree sunk under the sand. To be precise, Li Yuan hit the roots and I hit him.

The root of the tree was broken, and the sound it made sounded like a toothache. Being bumped by the branches of a thousand-year-old tree in the quicksand was no less than falling on a stone from a waterfall.

The two of us turned over and desperately grabbed the broken tree root. We clung to it and followed the ups and downs of the quicksand until it was submerged in the sand.

The remains of the sacred tree lay in the desert, dismembered by the quicksand, and then swallowed whole.

It’s 2022, and it’s time for some people to take off their vests.
