Struggle in the Steam Age

"These mummies should be the remains of saints, but all the power on them has been dissipated." After reading the engraved words on the sign under several mummies, Nora figured out what was going on.

"Perhaps because this place is far away from the Styx River, the power inside these mummies has all disappeared, but these bodies can still remain, and they have been preserved intact to this day."

"That is to say, the power that led us here did not come from the remains of these saints." Lawrence muttered looking at the golden mountaintop above his head.

"Yes, these mummies are no different from the surrounding wood carvings. If you insist, this thing only has some historical value." Speaking of which, the little puppet shrugged.

"As for the power that has been guiding us before, I think it should be entrenched on the top of the mountain. In other words, as long as we climb to the top of the mountain, everything will be clear."

When they climbed more than 1/3, some existences like ghosts or broken mummies finally appeared on both sides of the road, blocking the way of the two of them.

However, the level of these guys is very poor, and they obviously have some very fresh wounds on their bodies. So that Nora didn't have to make a move. These monsters were all cleaned up by Lawrence.

Finally, after beheading nearly a hundred monsters with extraordinary levels no higher than silver, Lawrence and the others finally stepped up the last step to the platform on the top of the mountain.

What appeared in front of the two of them now was a hall composed purely of corpses, revealing a strong breath of death and decay from the inside to the outside.

But unlike the pure death in the River Styx below, this power of death clearly carried a certain evil and chaotic atmosphere, which also made Lawrence and Nora suddenly vigilant.

"It feels like something is wrong." Seeing the mummy stumbling around the hall of bones, the little puppet frowned all of a sudden.

"Indeed." Lawrence also showed a serious expression. "The god we are looking for should at least be a good god, so even if there is only a corpse left on the other side, it will not mutate into the current ghost situation."

There is naturally a huge difference between gods and ordinary creatures. For example, after the death of gods, everything they leave behind will have a certain degree of activity.

For example, this is the case with the legendary Pan Gu in Lawrence's previous life. Even if he fell directly after creating the world, his remains can even become a world.

And this situation is not just a legend in the current world. At least according to the information Lawrence found before, some astral planes are really transformed from everything left after the fall of a powerful being.

However, under normal circumstances, everything formed after the disappearance of a fallen god is often related to the priesthood and tendency of the god before its fall.

Therefore, according to this theory, Amon-Ra, the god who controls the sun, life and creation priesthood, should not form such a dead area even after his fall.

"I think there must be something wrong with the information we collected before, but to be honest, this kind of word-of-mouth information is too easy to cause problems in information dissemination when it is circulated."

Nora grabbed Lawrence's left arm and used him as an intermediary to cast spells to detect the surrounding situation, while lowering her voice and speaking to Lawrence.

"And for us, the biggest problem is that we don't know whether the information being circulated was actively inquired by the jackals, or it was some smoke bombs that the group of people deliberately released back then, hoping to change a certain idea of ​​​​the trackers."

"Mortal, come in with your pet, and I will give you unprecedented glory and power." Just as Nora and Lawrence joined hands to investigate the situation in front of them, a thick voice came from the palace.

"Good news, the power of Styx should have limited the power radiation range of the existence in the palace." Nora happily said to Lawrence through the soul connection, "So the other party should not recognize my true identity. Good thing."

"Then shall we go in directly now?" Lawrence asked Nora. "I feel like this palace is in another world. If we go in, it may be against us."

"You are right, but the problem is that if the thing we want to find really exists, it should be in this palace." Nora shrugged, "So there is only one way left for us."

Realizing he had no choice, Lawrence entered the palace with Nora. As soon as they stepped into the gate of the palace, Lawrence and the others clearly felt as if they had fallen into a desert.

And the golden mummy sitting on the throne of bones saw Lawrence and Nora enter, and quickly condensed a pocket tornado of golden dust in his hands, and then threw it at Lawrence and the others who had just entered.

The flying speed of this golden tornado is not very fast, even ordinary people can dodge it. But when Lawrence and Nora were about to get out of the way, they felt that the whole palace was wrapped around them as if they had come alive, making them unable to move. "

Soul attack? Nora, who saw through the core force of the attack, suddenly broke through the restraints around her, and then directly reached out to help Lawrence block the tornado.

"Mortal, your little pet is indeed a bit beyond my expectation." After seeing Nora easily receiving the golden tornado, the golden mummy showed a slightly unexpected look on its face.

Then it catalyzed the power of the entire palace with a gesture, turning the purple-black magic power into chains made of bones to bind the little puppet.

"But this is just a small mistake, because I underestimated those non-flesh and blood existences, and my next attack—" Seeing Nora's body watching the chains suspended in the air, the mummy began to talk endlessly.

"In reality, it seems that such an enemy with a lot of nonsense really exists!" Seeing the monster in front of him start to make some declarations, Lawrence looked surprised and said loudly to Nora who was pretending to be restrained .

"I think this is normal, because when the ancient Nile made mummies, they needed to remove the perishable brain from the cranial cavity first." Nora also said in a teasing tone.

"That is to say, the guy sitting at the highest place has an empty brain, so it's understandable to do some stupid things."

"You guys really pissed me off." Seeing that Lawrence and Nora didn't show any expressions of fear, fear or despair but instead laughed and laughed, the golden mummy showed an angry look.

Although the bandage-wrapped head couldn't show any expression, the green flames radiating from the gaps in the bandages could make everyone present feel the mummy's inner anger.

Then, the mummy, covered in green flames, walked directly from the throne. Then he walked towards the little puppet bound in the air.

At the same time, clusters of strange green sand and dust leaked out from the gaps in his bandages, slowly forming a chain of sand and dragging behind him.

"You are not that ancient sun god." After this period of close contact, Nora quickly perceived the specific situation of the power of the mummy in front of her, and then analyzed some things.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the evil god and desert god Seth of the ancient Nile civilization, but you're just wearing a shell with the power of sunlight."

"Is it just a layer of strength outside?" After hearing Nora's words, the mummy became even more angry. "I am obviously the new Sun God!"
