Struggle in the Steam Age

The new discoveries in certain aspects suddenly made Lawrence and the others depressed. Compared to previous guesses, now Lawrence and Nora can confirm that the ancient god of death has brought Amon-Ra's thing under his control.

After all, if it is reasonable for a hidden thing not to be discovered, it is basically impossible for such an existence that continuously radiates energy to be ignored by the ancient god of death who controls this section of the Styx.

It's just that for Lawrence and Nora, if they want to know whether the other party is willing to hand over the legacy left by the main god of the ancient Nile civilization to themselves, they can only decide after they find such wealth.

So after a brief discussion, Lawrence and the others decided to proceed as planned. At least for them, the only way to know what is going on now is to find that thing.

But just when Lawrence and the others were trying to find a way to their destination, a voice that was hard to hear but contained some kind of soul power suddenly came from the direction of the source of the sunlight ahead.

The range spread by this sound wave is so wide, and the power contained in it is so powerful, that Lawrence saw with his own eyes that the wandering spirits wandering not far away were all dissipated in an instant.

On a mountain peak not far from a tributary of the Styx River, many mummies wrapped in bandages wandered aimlessly around the mountain peak, making mournful wailing sounds or some kind of secret language belonging to the dead from time to time.

And on the top of this mountain is a flat platform, on which is a temple built purely from bones, and in the center of the temple is a throne also made of bones and some ominous gems.

On the throne, a golden mummy dressed in a white robe and holding a nine-tailed and golden orchid blue scepter sat there with his hands crossed on his chest. At the same time, the two weapons emitted terrible power of death.

The position of the mummy's eyes did not ignite a flame representing the soul, and at the same time, the whole body did not emit a little power. The whole thing looks like a completely dead thing.

But on the side of the throne, a mass of dust that looks like tulle is constantly spinning in the temple. The entire temple was shrouded in a thin layer of dust.

The dust seemed to be shining like gold sand, and at the same time exuded a kind of sun-like power. Obviously, the sunlight that Lawrence and the others felt just now came from here.

And when Lawrence and the others approached not far from the mountain and crossed an invisible barrier, two green flames suddenly ignited on the bare face of the golden figure sitting on the skeleton seat.

With a creaking sound as if the rusted door was reopened, the golden mummy, which looked like a sculpture, began to move its limbs.

At the same time, waves of powerful power began to flow in this body, even causing a lot of green light to emerge from the gaps in the golden bandages wrapped around the mummy's body.

At the same time, a soul-impacting scream radiated from the body of the golden mummy to the surroundings. In an instant, a powerful soul hits you, the throne, as the core, and rushes towards the surroundings.

For the mummies wandering around this temple, this kind of soul impact is like a big tonic, making them look a lot stronger all of a sudden.

But for those undead creatures that do not belong to this territory in the distance, this impact has a fatal effect on them. A large number of undead creatures were completely wiped out from this world.

However, it may be because the movement of this blow was too loud, when the ripple of the soul attack reached the tributary of the Styx River, the Styx River, which was still as calm as a mirror just now, suddenly became irritable.

There were ripples on the surface of the river for a moment, and then these ripples became bigger and bigger, and finally formed a huge gray waterspout filled with chaos and powerful death force.

After the gray waterspout took shape, the tornado flew into the sky with a large amount of river water, and then turned into a gray cloud and flew towards the top of the mountain.

When the cloud flew to the top of the mountain, gray raindrops fell from the sky towards the temple of bones on the top of the mountain, covering the entire temple in gray rain and fog.

Although the golden mummy in the temple reacted immediately, manipulating the golden dust that was hovering in the temple to cover the entire temple.

But this kind of protection is more than one or two points worse than the Styx water. The moment the two came into contact, the hemispherical dust shield was pitted by gray raindrops.

The mummy on the throne immediately recited an obscure incantation after seeing that the situation was not good, and the wandering mummies around the hall were shocked at the same time, then knelt on their knees and spit out a large amount of golden dust into the protective cover .

Relying on the power extracted from those mummies, the golden mummy finally blocked the counterattack from Styx. But after all the attacks were over, all that was left of the mummy was the incomplete subordinates and the dilapidated hall.

Naturally, Lawrence and Nora didn't know what happened in the Hall of Bones at the top of the mountain, but whether it was the undead wandering around falling down in unison or the disappearance of the power of the sun after the Styx Riot, they were aware of their destination. There have been some changes.

"What happened just now?" Lawrence asked with wide-eyed eyes, "It seems that our destination launched an attack, and then the Styx force counterattacked."

"I think your guess should be right." The little puppet also frowned at this time, "I guess it is very likely that the arrival of the two of us triggered some kind of mechanism arranged by the elite church."

"But now it seems that the power in those backhands should correspond to the power of the entire Styx region. That's why the change in Styx just now was induced."

"Then is this accident a good thing or a bad thing for us?" Lawrence looked down at the little puppet flying close to the ground and asked, "If it's too dangerous, we don't need to carry out the next plan."

"It's not dangerous." Nora said after feeling the energy reaction of the distant destination very seriously. "And going now is the best opportunity, because the strength over there is just in the weakest state after confronting Styx."

Realizing that now is the best opportunity for treasure hunting, Lawrence and the others subconsciously accelerated their pace. Soon, the two discovered some artificial traces began to appear under their feet:

A path paved with various corpses appeared under their feet, and at the same time extended towards a hill not far away.

"I think we've found the right place." Through the gray mist that has become so thin that it can't block the line of sight. Lawrence saw some artificial buildings on the top of the obviously artificially flattened mountain at first glance.

To be honest, if the treasure of the Gate of the Gods was not too important to him, Lawrence would never have taken this potentially life-threatening adventure around the legendary Styx, which was full of dangers.

All the way up along this bone path, some objects with the style of ancient Nile began to appear in the caves on both sides of the path.

For example, ebony sculptures inlaid with gold, painted human coffins and mummies wearing metal armor, holding metal weapons, and wrapped in linen.

However, unlike what I imagined, these things are just some items. He didn't jump up and attack Lawrence and Nora who were walking on the road.

And through the inscriptions on those items, Lawrence also knew that these items belonged to the treasures of the Church of Amon-Ra, and could even be said to be the bottom part of the church's treasury.
