Chapter 107 The Only Chance! The Tower of Death! The Vengeful Undead!

Cairo, Egypt.

This is a city with a long history.

The Nile culture shines brightly on this land.

Fu Manchu stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the ancient city in the distance, his face filled with reminiscence, as if he were commemorating something.

His attire was simple, consisting of only a faded blue robe, making him appear nothing like a former emperor, but rather an ordinary passerby.

But the pigtail he still wore at the back of his head silently proved that he had never forgotten his past glory.

"What is Your Majesty thinking about?"

A cold voice came from behind Fu Manchu.

A spiral light gate opened in response.

A familiar figure slowly walked out from behind the portal.

Fu Manchu remained silent, simply gazing at Cairo.

He stood there casually, looking so simple, yet he naturally exuded a calm and composed temperament that was as profound as a mountain and as noble as a man.

Ultimately, he was someone who had truly been wealthy!

Even though he's down on his luck now, he's still far beyond what ordinary people can compare to.

Fu Manchu suddenly remembered his old home.

once Upon a time.

He owns a house that is even more magnificent and grand than the city before him, a masterpiece that embodies the ancient charm of the East for thousands of years and is the culmination of ancient architectural techniques.

Compared to the Forbidden City.

The city of Cairo before my eyes is truly unbearable to look at.

Thinking of this, Fu Manchu couldn't help but sigh.

His weathered eyes revealed boundless sorrow.

"Ancient One, you're late!"

"I've been waiting for you here for three days!"

"They ate sand for three whole days —"

obviously.

Fu Manchu was very unhappy about Gu Yi's lateness.

to be honest.

He can wear a faded blue robe to feign aloofness, thus demonstrating his determination to devote himself to the cause of restoring the country, but you can't really let him live a hard life, otherwise he will be unhappy!

He was once the supreme ruler—although only in the past, a former supreme ruler is still a supreme ruler, and he also has his pride!

Gu Yi sighed, his expression becoming extremely serious.

"Yes, I'm late!"

"But this is not good news!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Manchu's face immediately darkened.

That damn bald guy, is being late a good thing?

The Ancient One seemed to hear Fu Manchu's inner monologue, and immediately explained with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, you should know that I possess the Eye of Agamotto, so logically speaking, even if justice is late, I cannot be late—"

She sighed, and even her bald head seemed to dim slightly.

"Captain Patriot has gotten even stronger!"

"His power has begun to erode the timeline—"

"We don't have much time left!"

Upon hearing the name of Captain Patriot, Fu Manchu suddenly trembled almost imperceptibly, and a hint of barely suppressed fear flashed deep in his profound eyes.

Aside from the Ancient One, he was the person who understood Captain Patriot the most, and also the person who was beaten the hardest by Captain Patriot.

It has left me with psychological trauma to this day!

I get agitated just hearing the name of Captain Patriot!

"He's still getting stronger? Are you kidding me?"

"Is he even human? Doesn't he have any limits?"

Fu Manchu couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The Ancient One shrugged helplessly. "His power comes from the blessing of a higher dimension and will only grow stronger over time. Fortunately, he hasn't become powerful enough to completely overwhelm the divine timeline. So we still have a chance to turn the tide!"

Fu Manchu was a man who had seen many storms, and even though he was terrified and shocked, he quickly regained his composure.

"A comeback from the brink of defeat? How exactly can one achieve such a turnaround?"

"He's too powerful!"

"So strong he's not even human—"

Fu Manchu trembled and shrank back, the scene of him being beaten on the Far East battlefield involuntarily appearing in his mind.

Fortunately, the Thirteen Saints Armor still retained a trace of their peak divine power, otherwise he would have perished on the Far East battlefield long ago.

"Even if we eventually succeed in reforging the White Tiger Seven Kill Blade, I do not believe that we can defeat an existence like Him with just an imperial weapon—He is a legendary true immortal!"

"Let's stop hiding things now! Let's be frank! What other tricks are you up to?"

Gu Yi calmly looked at Fu Manchu. She knew that she had to give her teammates some confidence, otherwise Fu Manchu would not have the courage to face the patriotic captain again.

"One imperial weapon is indeed not enough to defeat Him! So I exhausted all possibilities and took advantage of the opportunity when the Eastern Continent wanted to reforge divine weapons to try to gather three divine weapons."

"The Heavenly Wolf Demon Blade, the White Tiger Seven Kill Blade, and your family's ancestral Thirteen Sacred Armors—Captain Patriot certainly knows I want to reforge divine weapons to deal with Him, but He has absolute confidence in suppressing all variables, so He is also happy to let me help complete the complex task of reforging divine weapons!"

Fu Manchu's noodles twitched, and even with his years of self-control, he couldn't help but lose some emotional control.

"Since everything is under Captain Patriot's control, what's the point of all your scheming to gather these divine weapons?"

"What are you doing all this for?"

"Just so that He could ultimately succeed in reaping the rewards?"

"Just to complete the set of three divine weapons for the Eastern Continent?"

Gu Yi, however, remained calm and showed no sign of being in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, look at you, why are you in such a hurry again?"

"Since I did this, I naturally have my reasons. There are some things I can't explain to people like you who can't cheat—this was originally an open conspiracy!"

"He wants to use me to reforge the divine weapon, while I want to reforge the divine weapon to deal with Him. It's simply a matter of who is more skilled!"

"Of the 36 million futures I have observed, I have failed countless times—"

When it comes to failure, the Ancient One remains calm.

Obviously.

She had failed so many times that she had become numb to it.

"In those failed futures, I also invited all sorts of powerful helpers, some of whom even possessed weapons no less powerful than national treasures, but Captain Patriot casually dismantled them all into a pile of junk!"

"And this is our only chance of success. Because if He wants to preserve the three complete national treasures, He will definitely show you mercy. At the very least, He will not destroy the three reforged divine weapons again."

"This is our only chance to hurt Him!"

Fu Manchu stared blankly at the Ancient One, muttering, "Even after achieving this much, I only have a chance to hurt Her? She truly is a despairing being!"

Gu Yi smiled calmly upon hearing this.

"It's okay!"

"What's truly despairing is that we couldn't harm Him before. Now that we have the opportunity to harm Him, it means we can defeat Him!"

"I have found the most suitable helper; he will complete the final piece of the puzzle in this battle to slay the immortals—"

Fu Manchu sensed the composure and calmness emanating from Gu Yi, and that inexplicable confidence made him breathe a sigh of relief.

The pressure from Captain Patriot was immense!

It's like a nightmare I can't wake up from —

With the Ancient One as their pillar of support, Fu Manchu felt much lighter and subconsciously asked, "So what do we do next? And where is our last helper?"

Gu Yi nodded with satisfaction.

As long as my teammates follow orders, we can still fight this battle!

"Let's go! We don't have much time left!"

"Now we need a guide to find our final helper to resurrect the ancient spirits!"

Before the words were even finished, the spiral light gate had already opened.

Gu Yi went in first.

Fu Manchu followed closely behind.

Go through the portal.

What you see is a house with distinctive ancient Egyptian cultural features, with various artifacts displayed around it, and even some dried mummies wrapped in white cloth.

"Terrence is an expert in ancient Egyptian culture, and he also has a high level of knowledge in ancient Egyptian mysticism. He is also well-versed in the sacrificial culture of the ancient Egyptian tomb-keeper tribes."

"Using him as an anchor point, I can quickly obtain all information about the City of the Dead, Hamunaptra, using the power of the Eye of Agamotto —"

Before Gu Yi could finish speaking, a well-dressed English gentleman appeared before her.

"Hey! Who are you two?"

"The museum is closed. How did you get in? I'm warning you, this constitutes trespassing, and I have the right to remove you! Please leave immediately!"

Terence spoke in a serious and methodical manner on the surface, but secretly he was on guard, ready to summon the undead guards to counterattack if anything went wrong.

Say something.

The bald woman in front of him gave him a strong sense of unease; her eyes seemed to see right through his soul.

Fu Manchu ignored the old gentleman's attitude and quietly inquired about the Ancient One's opinion on the course of action: "Should we just arrest her?"

Gu Yi shook her head. "That would be too impolite! We should talk to him, both morally and logically."

"The more cooperative he is, the less effort I have to put in!"

With that, the Ancient One flashed a perfect smile and extended her hand to Professor Terrence: "Hello, Terrence. It's a pleasure to meet you. I sincerely invite you to explore the City of the Dead, Hamunaptra, together. What do you say?"

Hamunaptra, the City of the Dead!

Terence's eyes widened immediately.

He never expected that these two intruders would covet the tombs of the pharaohs and even try to drag him down with them.

As a researcher with professional ethics, he naturally could not agree to such a thing and immediately and righteously refused, saying, "Impossible! This is illegal tomb raiding!"

"I am an officially appointed professor and scholar. How could I possibly collude with shameless tomb raiders like you?"

"If you leave my museum now, I might consider not reporting your criminal activities—"

Despite Terence's words, he was actually using a feint to cover his tracks and had already secretly taken action. He didn't believe that tomb raiders could be good people.

Instead of waiting passively, it's better to take the initiative.

Let's capture these two audacious petty thieves first!

Whoosh—

Terence suddenly tossed a handful of spices from his pocket. These were small props to aid in spellcasting, allowing him to communicate with the power of the underworld and, when combined with incantations, revive the mummy guards.

As the spice powder settled on the dried mummies displayed around the museum, Terence immediately began reciting an ancient incantation with great emotion, shouting in ancient Egyptian: "Rise, slumbering one, defeat the enemy for me!"

As the spell was activated, Yu Ku's mummy began to come alive, becoming incredibly agile and nimble as it charged towards Fu Manchu and the Ancient One.

Gu Yi sighed, silently took a step back, and stood behind Fu Manchu, whispering, "Please spare his life. Just give him a little scare—"

Fu Manchu remained silent, standing quietly with his hands behind his back.

He stood with his feet neither too far apart nor too far apart, seemingly casual, yet like an insurmountable mountain.

Terence's resurrected mummies rushed in quickly. These mummies were once guards who protected the Pharaoh. In life, they were all powerful warriors with extremely rich combat experience. They launched an attack on Fu Manchu with exceptional coordination.

"A boring trick!"

"A pathetic piece of trash —"

Fu Manchu made a soft comment.

Just casually raise your hand, clench your fist, and swing it!

A powerful, forceful fist strike, accompanied by a dragon's roar, burst forth.

Rumble—

The mummy vanished instantly, and the wall behind Terrence was also punched right through by the same punch!

Despite being beaten into a pulp by Captain Patriot, Fu Manchu's strength was absolutely at the pinnacle of the planet.

Terence froze on the spot.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the huge hole in the wall, which was taller than him, and swallowed hard.

Fuck! Is this guy even human?

You two are so fierce, do you really need to make things difficult for me?

Gu Yi stepped out from behind Fu Manchu once again.

"Professor Terence, I'm sure we can talk calmly now! To show my sincerity, I can help you recover your losses from just now—"

With that, Gu Yi waved her hand.

The Eye of Agamotto on his chest instantly lit up with a green light.

The damage caused by Fu Manchu's fist techniques began to gradually recover under the power of the Time Stone, as if it had never happened.

"How—how is this possible?"

Terence was dumbfounded.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

The Ancient One calmly looked at Terrence and stated her request again: "I want to enter the City of the Dead, Hamunaptra!"

Terence shrank back upon hearing this and cautiously replied, "The City of the Dead, Hamunaptra, is the mausoleum of the Pharaohs of all time. It is under a very powerful curse, and anyone who dares to trespass will ultimately die without a burial place."

The Eye of Agamotto on the Ancient One's chest continued to emit a hazy green light, allowing her to quickly acquire a large amount of information about Hamunaptra by exploiting a time bug.

She nodded and smiled, "You're right. The curses cast by the pharaohs throughout history are indeed incredibly powerful; forcing your way in is extremely difficult—"

Terence was about to respond when he heard the Ancient One continue, "But Professor Terence, don't forget, this year is the Year of the Cat in the ancient Egyptian calendar—"

Year of the Cat?

Terrence was clearly taken aback.

"When Sirius rises with the sun, the curse of Hamunaptra will be at its weakest, limited by the power of Augustus, the god of the underworld—anyone who can find its location can freely enter and exit at that time! Am I right?"

Terence's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

He suddenly realized that the bald woman in front of him had come prepared; she really wanted to enter the City of Death!

"No! What exactly do you want?"

"Please don't disturb the peace of the Pharaohs—"

Gu Yi smiled shyly and shook his head.

"To stop that almost invincible being, I need to draw upon the power of the ancient Egyptian high priest from three thousand years ago—"

So I'm sorry, I can't agree to that.

Terence reacted instantly.

As a researcher of ancient Egyptian culture, he knew all too well the terror of the ancient Egyptian high priest described by the Ancient One!

That was the most powerful high priest three thousand years ago!

"No! Are you insane? He was subjected to the most extreme punishment of being eaten by worms for betraying the Pharaoh, and was sealed in a sarcophagus for three thousand years—he is a vengeful spirit, and once resurrected, he will destroy the entire world!"

Gu Yi sighed and gently shook her head.

"Trust me! It'll be alright—"

"Irhotep doesn't have that ability yet—"

"Even if it wants to destroy the world!"

"He won't agree either!"
