"Have you read the contents inside?" After Tang Bai received the spell from Imogen, he did not go to open the Bible of the Dead himself and verify it as Imogen wished. Instead, he asked again.

"Every high priest has read the contents inside." Immorton, who had regained some of his strength, glanced at the silver dragon standing on Tang Bai's shoulder with fear and hatred, and said with his head lowered.

"Can't say?" Tang Bai frowned.

"It can't be said that the gods have put some kind of prohibition on it. It's not even a language." Immortun understood the meaning of Tang Bai's "can't say" without any hindrance. "This spell is the prohibition of every high priest."

One of the greatest secrets to protect."

"You should know very well what the price of deception is, right?" For some reason, Tang Bai felt slightly worried and uneasy in his heart.

This kind of anxiety and uneasiness comes from suspicion of Immortun. According to Tang Bai's understanding of Imogen, this mummy, who was cursed for more than three thousand years before being resurrected, is really not a character that people can trust 100%.

.

Let's not talk about the things he deceived Evelin, O'Connor and others. When facing the Scorpion King, he saw that he was defeated and immediately made a surrender gesture, praying to the Scorpion King to let him go, and waited for an opportunity to look.

He obviously also has some heroic potential.

He wanted to see something from Imogen's face and eyes, but the result made Tang Bai feel disappointed. Only a skeleton and a rotten skin of Imogen were left, and there was no trace of it from his face.

No matter the slightest expression, even the eyes, they were quite calm, without the slightest hint of guilt.

"I have told you what I know. Even if you let this thing purify me, I can only reveal so much to you." The corner of Immorton's lips twitched obviously, revealing a circle of rotten yellow teeth.

.

Tang Bai was silent for a moment.

To be honest, if possible, Tang Bai would never touch or participate in certain uncertain things and events that carry great risks of anonymity. But things will never be as smooth as he imagined.

, perfect.

Risks and opportunities have always been twins who are inseparable.

It is prudent to take steps step by step, but if you are too conservative and prudent, you will definitely lose a lot of opportunities and progress; the greater the risk, the reward will be equally huge if you succeed. And what Tang Bai needs to do is to choose between prudent and risky.

Between them, make a choice that favors the surname.

What Tang Bai needs to consider now is whether to take this possible risk?

Although there are gods in the mummy world, these gods are no longer as active and intimidating as they were in ancient times. Even miracles have not appeared again for a long time. In my impression, there are only two gods in this world.

When minor gods take action, they are all the same god.

Anubis, the god of death!

Once, he agreed to the Scorpion King's contract promise and gave him an invincible and immortal army of immortality; the other time was when Immorton and the Scorpion King were having a death duel in the ring, for the sake of fairness and balance, he deprived him of the immortal army.

The magic power of Immorton.

The only two times, they were only indirect attacks, and even the true identity was not revealed.

No matter what happened to the gods in this world that caused their current influence in the human world to be greatly reduced, there is no doubt that in places like Hamna Tower, those gods are still

He has the ability to take action.

This time is not like facing the Poseidon, but also Aslan. Although the Poseidon is moody, she is in a sealed state. Her power does not allow her to use it too much. Aslan is a relatively gentle god.

, and there is no conflict of interest with Tang Bai.

But Anubis is different.

Tang Bai was not sure what kind of attitude Anubis would have towards someone who dared to pry into his secrets.

After pulling out the book on the train and seeing those words with profound meanings, Tang Bai couldn't help but feel a little more anxious and urgent. He eagerly wanted to read the contents recorded on it.

For Tang Bai, it was a rare opportunity in front of him.

It was an opportunity that was so rewarding that he needed to be determined enough to give it a try.

The Bible of the Undead came out of the arms of Evelin who was unconscious on the ground, as if there was an invisible thread in the void pulling it hard, and flew straight to the direction of Tang Bai. Tang Bai faced the undead

The Bible tapped the wand, and the flying Bible of the Undead spun in a circle in the air, adjusted its angle, and floated quietly in front of Tang Bai.

The wand was switched to his left hand, and the palm of his right hand was lightly fanned at the Bible of the Dead. The unlocked Bible of the Dead, following Tang Bai's gesture, immediately seemed to be opened by an ethereal hand, revealing the inside.

content.

A meticulous, solemn and rhythmic aria flowed from Tang Bai's lips after Immortun's mouth. The long spell, which lasted about a minute, was easily repeated by Tang Bai without any mistakes.

came out.

Just after Tang Bai's last syllable fell, the entire Bible of the Dead suddenly glowed with a hazy brilliance. A huge and mysterious energy surged from the book itself along with the hazy circle of black pure energy.

out.

Being touched by that energy, it was as if he was spinning wildly on the spot for fifty or sixty times, and then suddenly stopped. His whole person had a sense of dizziness, as if his soul had been thrown out. But Tang Bai's body was...

There is no sense of balance or direction like weightlessness, and it is still standing firmly on the ground like an old tree stump.

Looking at Tang Bai, whose expression was a bit unreal, and Immorton, who was holding the sarcophagus to steady his body, a wanton smile appeared on his lips: "The answer you are looking for will be answered by the great god Anubis himself.

Bar."

When Tang Bai woke up from his dizziness, he found that he had been dragged into a dark space. In front of him was a huge figure with the head of a jackal, the ancient Egyptian God of Death - Anubis.

The melodious voice, which made it impossible to distinguish between male and female, sounded from all directions in this strange space, but there was no noise at all, and it fell neatly into Tang Bai's ears.

"Stranger, this is not the place you should come to."

The same words were spoken by different gods in different worlds.

"Anubis, the god of death?"

Tang Bai couldn't help but not be surprised. Even though he had prepared for the worst in advance, when this situation really happened in front of Tang Bai, he could only smile bitterly.

"Leave here, this doesn't belong to you, and it's not where you should be."

Anubis's voice once again sounded in this dark space that was suffused with black and had no boundaries. With his voice, Anubis's body gradually changed from solid to illusory in Tang Bai's eyes.

Apparently he was planning to leave.

"Wait! Please wait!" Perhaps it was Anubis's attitude that made Tang Bai break away from the initial panic and shock and wake up in one fell swoop. Seeing that Anubis was about to leave, Tang Bai didn't even think about it.

So I kept my voice.

However, Anubis seemed not to have heard Tang Bai's plea to stay. His body was still fading, and Tang Bai could even feel that there was an inexplicable suction force behind him, trying to pull him out of this gradually changing world.

A space of restlessness and collapse.

Tang Bai couldn't allow him to take such a big risk. As a result, except for some ancient Egyptian spells and being expelled by the "host", he achieved nothing. Although he didn't know why Anubis didn't deal with him and just expelled him.

, but he sensitively grasped one thing from Anubis's attitude, that is, Anubis had no hostility towards him.

Of course, there was no hostility, and there was also no good impression. Otherwise, Anubis would not have ignored Tang Bai's efforts to stay.

Tang Bai was currently thinking about how to keep Anubis. As for other considerations, he had temporarily put them aside. Seeing that Anubis' shadow was about to dissipate, Tang Bai's mind was spinning rapidly.

Bai, subconsciously shouted: "Don't you want to restore your glory as a god?"

The illusory figure of Anubis trembled suddenly, and then quickly became solid again. Seeing this scene, Tang Bai couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that the words he just tried so hard,

Finally, I was no longer ignored by Anubis.

Before Tang Bai could feel at ease, an unpredictable force suddenly invaded his body from the darkness. It felt like someone was using Legilimency to spy on his thoughts. Tang Bai

Instinctively activated Occlumency.

However, Occlumency, which can easily resist an elite Death Eater's prying thoughts, under that strange power, is like a small dam trying to resist the waves of a flood that only happens once in a century.

The moment was broken by that power and flooded.

Tang Bai tried his best to maintain the Occlumency that was on the verge of collapse. He was even too distracted to get angry at Anubis' sudden attack.

"...It's strange that I can't pry into your thoughts..."

"...Is it the effect of the pocket watch on your chest?..."

"...The only thing that can resist the prying eyes of gods is another god..."

"..."

The disembodied voice came faintly, resounding in Tang Bai's heart. Then, the prying energy quickly dissipated like the fading tide.

Tang Bai felt exhausted and weak.

"Now, let's prove it. How can you restore me to my former glory?" Anubis' voice, which became a little softer, fell directly into Tang Bai's ears.

"I can help you re-establish a powerful empire in this world that believes in you and respects you." Tang Bai suppressed his turbulent emotions and maintained his calm reply.

"Worthless." (To be continued.)
