William woke up from his dream. He screamed, waking up Evelin who was sleeping next to him. Immorton stopped reciting the spell and looked at William who suddenly woke up. Suddenly, the entire airship The atmosphere seems to have become somewhat different.
"What happened? There's a lot of sweat on your forehead. Do you have a nightmare?" Evelin let go of the "Black Book of the Dead" placed on her body and asked with concern.
It was still the environment of the airship. Everything seemed so safe and sound. The airship heading to China was running well. However, when thinking about the contents of the dream just now, the feeling of lingering fear always lingered deep in my heart and became a symbol. The lingering shadow.
"I had a nightmare," William said.
"I can see that your heart is beating very fast." Evelin nodded and said. At this time, she could feel William's strong heart beating. On this quiet night, thousands of miles high in the sky, William's She could hear the heartbeat clearly.
"What dream did you have? You should understand that at our level, the so-called dream is not just a dream. Dreams involve this life and the next life. The dead can communicate with people in reality through dreams, and even to the living. Cause harm, God will also convey oracles to the living through dreams, and as the Pharaoh's reserve and your own power, except for some power beyond you and me, otherwise no existence can interfere with your dreams, let alone give you You bring nightmares.”
High Priest Imogen's performance at this time was very much like Detective Conan, seeing through William's question at a glance. In fact, for the high priest, this is common sense. Imogen's subtext is obvious, there is such a great being as a god entering. Into William's dream.
Dreams contain good and bad omens, and there is no need to confirm. Looking at the way William said that he had nightmares and was frightened, there is no doubt that this represents a bad omen.
"Anubis, the god of death, appeared in my dream. He asked me to surrender to him and give my faith so that I could add his name to my throne name and at the same time, I could gain Command of the armies of Anubis.”
William took the handkerchief Evelin handed over and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and recounted what happened in the dream.
"So, do you mean you agreed?" Immorton asked.
"If I agreed, would I still have nightmares? I refused to dedicate my faith and become His servant. So Anubis was very angry. He said that he would take back the life and power given to me, and he would do so within seven days. Take my life away.”
There was no panic or fear in William's eyes. Immorton frowned and said, "You have lost a good opportunity. This is what many people in ancient Egypt dreamed of, even the Pharaoh himself."
Although the Pharaoh of Egypt is regarded as the son of Ra and the human Horus, he is not a real god after all. Even if he has the soul of Horus, it is only a part of it. The body of the Pharaoh is not the same as the bodies of other ordinary people. The slightest difference is that he will age and be killed. After the death of the Pharaoh, his status is actually lower than that of the gods, especially Anubis who will take away the Pharaoh's soul.
"There is nothing to regret about it. Even if I do it again, I will make the same decision. My future does not lie in Egypt, let alone Anubis."
William said absently, not caring about what Immorton said was regretful. What God gives, God takes back. Anubis gives you life and mana, and Anubis can also take it back.
In the plot of the second part, Immorton relied on his immortality and divine power to challenge the Scorpion Emperor and kill him to gain command of the Anubis army in the hands of the Scorpion Emperor. However, he had just arrived at the Scorpion Emperor. The pyramid was deprived of immortality and divine power by Anubis.
Imogen must use his own flesh and blood to defeat the Scorpion Emperor with his own weapons. However, Ansuna wanted to persuade Imogen to leave the pyramid, but what she got was Imogen's rejection.
Because all this is the will of the God of Death, Anubis. The God of Death, Anubis, wants Imogen to challenge the Scorpion Emperor in flesh and blood, so Imogen is not allowed to refuse, regardless of Imogen or Ansuna. They are all resurrected through the power of the Black Book of the Dead, that is, through the power of Anubis, the God of Death. The resurrected dead also belong to the domain of Anubis. Therefore, for the future of himself and Ansuna, Immorton The will of Anubis cannot be denied.
strength.
William closed his eyes slightly. Deep in his heart, he had never been so eager for power, for the power that belonged to him and would not be deprived by the great being in the dark.
"Immoton, please, use magic to speed up to China. I don't have much time." William said, the reason why Anubis, the god of death, wanted to take away his life was to leave him seven days. Not because of Anubis' mercy, but because he apparently only had seven days to take his own life.
This is the blessing of fate, but it is not the resistance of his own power. After all, he is not a pure human being, but an evil dragon.
But even so, William's delay was only seven days.

Xi'an, China.
The capital of the Qin Empire, the capital of the Han Empire, Chang'an, was changed to "Chang'an" in Wang Mang's new dynasty, and "Daxing" in the Sui Dynasty. In history, more than a dozen dynasties established their capitals here, including the Afang Palace of Qin, the Terracotta Warriors, and Weiyang Palace of Han Dynasty. Changle Palace, Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty, Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace in the Tang Dynasty all had a glorious period here.
The Eye of Shangri-La guided William to find the location of the Dragon Emperor's tomb. At this time, China was in the age of warlords. Spending the money obtained from Hamna Tower, countless workers kept digging downwards, hoping to Excavate the Dragon Emperor's tomb.
The men in red clothes held submachine guns in their hands. They were all loyal servants of Imogen. The high priest Imogen was wearing a cloak and looked at the Chinese people who were digging. He didn't know what he was thinking.
"Mr. William, I hope you will not damage the cultural relics. These are the essence of our Chinese history and civilization. They are the precious wealth left by our ancestors for our descendants. They are the best proof that distinguishes us from the foreigners."
Jackie Chan came to William and said that he didn't look good at this time. Even though he used mechanical power to mobilize a large number of workers, William still felt that the action was too busy, so he often used the magic power of the Dragon Talisman to blast to increase the progress of the excavation. , this has to make Jackie Chan feel his scalp numb. These are ancient cultural relics of the Qin Dynasty. Each one is a national treasure. If one is lost, he doesn’t know what to explain to the later Chinese people.
It's okay for you to resurrect the Dragon Emperor and then kill him to save the world. I, Jackie Chan, support you, but it won't work if you damage cultural relics.
"Yes, Mr. William, our Black Hand organization will definitely help, so please don't worry, we will speed up the process." Valon is rarely in step with Jackie Chan. If the Golden Rooster King's treasure is destroyed by the Dragon Talisman, then Wouldn't the point of them coming here be gone?
"No problem." William said easily, since the Dragon Emperor was about to be dug out.
It's not the induction from the Eye of Shangri-La, but the induction from the evil dragon in his body.
