The colonial army's supreme commander, looking at the sea of ​​people charging toward the ruins, was already terrified, his legs going weak.

He threw down his rifle, turned and ran, disappearing into the ruins in no time.

This absurd and outrageous scene stunned O'Connor, who was standing not far away; his eyes were filled with astonishment and disbelief.

As the highest commander of an army, he actually fled without a fight when the battle was about to begin.

Just as O'Connor was lost in thought, a sleazy-looking man with greasy eyes grabbed his arm from his right.

This person is none other than Benny, the funny guy in the show who prays to Buddha for blessings in Chinese.

Upon seeing the commander flee, he immediately turned to O'Connor and said, "Now that the commander is gone, you're our supreme commander!"

"Pfft~"

When Li Xiao, who was more than 200 kilometers away, saw this scene with his divine sense, he couldn't help but laugh.

The situation was urgent, allowing no room for hesitation. O'Connor quickly suppressed the surging anxiety and panic in his heart, forcing himself to steady himself as he roared, "Everyone, aim at your targets! Fire!"

Upon receiving the order, the remaining colonial soldiers immediately snapped back to reality, gripped their rifles tightly, and fired at the charging indigenous troops.

A burst of gunfire suddenly echoed across the desert, and scalding hot bullets whistled out.

The indigenous army's front rank, which was charging at high speed on warhorses, was instantly hit hard. The warhorses were startled and neighed, and the soldiers were shot and fell to the ground. In an instant, men and horses fell down, the momentum of the charge was suddenly stopped, and the front rank formation was thrown into chaos.

But this indigenous army was extremely brave, even with a ruthless spirit that feared no death. Even though the front ranks suffered heavy casualties, the soldiers in the rear ranks did not retreat in the slightest. They charged madly towards the ruins, stepping on the yellow sand and braving gunfire.

On one side was a well-equipped but demoralized and panicked remnant army, and on the other side was a numerically superior and fearless army on the run.

The tide of battle quickly turned again. The remaining colonial forces were already weak, and under the continuous onslaught of the indigenous people, they were unable to hold out. They were forced to retreat in defeat, their defensive lines collapsed, and the number of casualties rose sharply.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Benny, who was afraid of death, changed his expression and no longer cared about his comrades. Taking advantage of the gap in everyone's resistance, he turned around and ran wildly into the ruins, becoming the first person to hide in the ruins.

Seeing this, O'Connor knew he couldn't hold on any longer. He turned and rushed toward the stone gate of the ruins, wanting to retreat inside and temporarily avoid the onslaught.

But just as he was about ten meters away from the stone gate at the entrance to the ruins, the cunning and treacherous Benny, ignoring O'Connor's cries for help, closed the heavy stone gate of the ruins without hesitation!

O'Connor pounded on the stone door, but once it was closed, it could only be opened from the inside. He angrily kicked the door twice, then grabbed his rifle and ran towards the east side of the ruins.

However, his efforts were in vain. After killing several Native American knights who were chasing him, O'Connor finally ran to a stone statue and found himself with nowhere to turn.

The five indigenous cavalrymen who had been chasing him surrounded him and raised their 98K rifles without saying a word.

In the original series, just as the cavalrymen were about to execute O'Connor, they suddenly saw the statue of Anubis behind O'Connor, which was about to be weathered away by the passage of time.

These indigenous people knew some of the history of this site, so they instinctively turned around and left, allowing O'Connor to escape.

But now, with the intervention of Li Xiao, an outsider, the plot has undergone some minor changes.

"Bang, bang, bang~" After five gunshots, five bloody holes appeared in O'Connor's body, and he fell straight to the ground. His blood flowed onto the yellow sand and quickly seeped in.

The five cavalrymen seemed to sense something was wrong, but they couldn't figure out exactly what it was. When they finally saw the statue behind O'Connor, their expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly turned their horses around and fled the scene.

Shortly after the indigenous cavalrymen left, a sandstorm suddenly swept across the sandy ground, and soon the yellow sand began to undulate rhythmically.

O'Connor's body quickly sank into the yellow sand and was eventually completely swallowed up, while the sand on the ground formed a strange human face shape.

At this moment, Li Xiao was suspended above the ruins. From his vantage point, he could easily discern that the face below bore a striking resemblance to Imhotep, the high priest who had committed adultery with the Pharaoh's wife three thousand years ago.

Under the scan of his divine sense, Li Xiao discovered an octagonal black box in a corner below. He curled his fingers into a claw and directly sucked the small box into his hand.

He then turned to look southeast, where eight men dressed in black with mysterious tattoos on their faces were riding horses and peering in his direction from a cliff.

Li Xiao ignored them and left in a flash.

"Oh, by the Sun God, where did that mysterious person suddenly go?"

The group of men in black on the cliff are descendants of the Pharaoh's personal guards from thousands of years ago. Their current mission is to guard the city of the dead, Hamunaptra, for generations. Their leader is named Eddie.

At this moment, Eddie stared in shock at Li Xiao, who had disappeared above Hamunaptra, his heart filled with a turbulent wave of emotions.

This world is full of legends about gods and ghosts, and the person just now could not only fly through the air but also disappear instantly. It was hard for these tomb keepers not to think of something supernatural.

A few minutes later, Li Xiao arrived at a library in London, England. He quickly found his target and headed straight for the Ancient Egyptian Archives.

According to the original storyline, the box that Li Xiao found in Hamunaptra was the key to opening Imhotep's coffin, and it also contained a map of the Hamunaptra ruins.

The box was originally obtained by O'Connor, but was later taken back to England by Jonathan, the brother of the female lead Evelyn.

Evelyn is a researcher who is extremely passionate about studying ancient Egyptian history. She is proficient in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and began her adventure to find Hamunaptra by reading the text on the maps.

These things wouldn't begin for another three years, but Li Xiao didn't have time to wait that long, so he brought the items directly to the library.

When he saw Evelyn, she was organizing some documents, and when she found something interesting, she would take out her notebook and take notes.

"Cough cough..."

Li Xiao's soft cough broke the silence of the library, and Evelyn looked up at that moment.
