Mahesh, the Egyptian lion god, was the son of Bastet.
"What did you do to him?!" Best demanded.
"Rest assured, the sun is impartial and will not implicate the bravest warriors on the Golden Sun Ship because of your mistakes."
"After being separated for so long, your son must miss you dearly. So let you two be reunited. Come out, Lion God."
"Roar!!!"
A deafening roar came, causing Best and the others to stumble backward.
boom! boom! boom!
A gigantic lion came running from the golden sun ship, unleashing terrifying power.
"Machs!"
Best stepped forward, trying to stop Machs's charge, but was instead blasted back by Machs's roar.
The lion's eyes were red, and it couldn't recognize Best and the others, as if it were being controlled by something.
Serket lashed out at Mach with his scorpion tail, laughing as he said, "I love watching family members kill each other."
Best's eyes reddened. "You damned scorpion, what have you done?!"
Serket said with a smile, "Back then, your son was defeated by the sand god Set with his sandstorm axe while covering your escape."
"The great Sun God, out of consideration for his past valiant battles and also because of the incompetence of you as his mother, showed leniency and spared his life, only imprisoning him here."
Serket gently held his scorpion tail in his hand and said, "I had nothing better to do, so I fed him some scorpion venom, and it turned out to be surprisingly effective."
"Would you... like some too?" The Scorpion Goddess smiled wickedly, looking at Best and the others.
"I kill you!"
Best instantly flew out, heading straight for Serket to attack!
Mahes raised his giant claw and slammed it down on the flying Best.
Horus leaped forward to shield Best from Machs's attack.
Serket dodged Best's attack and lashed out with his scorpion tail, sending Best flying.
Best slammed into the railing, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"If it were the old you, I would have been somewhat wary of you with your unpredictable speed, but now that you haven't fully recovered your strength, you're no match for me at all," the Scorpion Goddess sneered.
"Best, I'm here to help you!"
Hathor quickly moved forward, and the two attacked Serket simultaneously.
Since Hathor failed to summon the lioness Sekhmet, his fighting power was even weaker than Bastet's, and the scorpion goddess seemed to handle the two of them with ease.
Sobek drew his two battle axes from his waist and was about to rush forward to help when Anubis stopped him.
Anubis stopped Sobek and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Sobek brandished his battle axe and said matter-of-factly, "Of course, we'll help Best and the others."
Anubis narrowed his eyes and looked at Sobek, saying, "Didn't you hear what Serket just said? Those three were the guys who rebelled against Sun City before, and they've been hunted down and imprisoned everywhere."
"But we haven't done anything wrong. If those two Corpse Ancestors of Great Xia don't show up, with our current strength, how can we fight against Sun City?"
"In the end, we were just coerced into joining this team..."
Sobek interrupted him, saying with a simple-minded look, "I don't want it, I want the magic mud that kid Gu Tianchen has."
Anubis: (ー_ー)!!
"Can't you use your crocodile brain to see things clearly? The situation is unclear right now, so let's wait and see. Why bother getting involved with those reckless guys?"
"oh oh."
Sobek sheathed his axe back into his belt and looked at Anubis seriously, asking:
"If I don't help them fight the sun, will that kid Gu Tianchen give me the magic mud?"
Chapter 282 Fighting Alone
Anubis was furious. To avoid drawing attention, he whispered, "What else is on your head besides playing with mud?!"
Sobek thought for a moment and replied seriously, "And eating, sleeping, and fighting."
Anubis really didn't want to deal with this brainless teammate, but he was afraid that this guy would ruin his plan to wait and see, so he could only try to keep him calm with words.
“Sobek, listen to me, you are the guardian of the Nile, and I am the new king of the underworld.”
"To enter the underworld, you must cross your Nile River. Of all these people, the two of us are the closest."
"So you have to listen to me, let's hold back and wait and see."
"I have risen to the position of Hades step by step in the underworld over the years, relying on my ability to assess the situation and act accordingly."
"I've lived my whole life on thin ice, so take my advice: let's not help anyone, and we'll help whoever wins in the end."
Completely bewildered by Anubis, Sobek could only nod sheepishly, put down his axe, and sit on the deck to eat.
Anubis narrowed his eyes, watching the fierce battle unfold before him, observing the situation.
boom!
Machs lunged forward and nearly knocked Horus down from the air.
As the vanguard among the Egyptian gods, Mahes's power was not to be underestimated among the chief gods.
Moreover, he is currently controlled by Serket's scorpion venom, and he is ruthless and indiscriminate. After going berserk, his combat power has skyrocketed.
Horus, with his flexible and varied fighting style, was clearly struggling to hold on.
Horus also wanted to close his right eye and go into a frenzy, but Best, who was usually calm on the field, had lost his mind because of Mahes.
Hathor could descend into a state of slaughter that could spiral out of control at any moment.
Anubis stopped Sobek from making a move and remained on the sidelines.
Serket is cunning and treacherous; we must be wary of him.
As the team leader, he couldn't afford to lose his temper any longer.
boom!
A sharp lion's claw ripped through the void, wounding Horus's chest as he was distracted.
Horus quickly flapped his wings and flew away to avoid Machs's attack.
The key to breaking this deadlock now lies with the two Corpse Ancestors of Great Xia. Hopefully, Best's allies will be as reliable as she is, and won't fail her at crucial moments like she has now.
Blinded by hatred, Best launched a relentless attack, neglecting to even defend, displaying a completely madman-like fighting style.
Hathor was so frightened by Best's attack method that he dared not make any rash moves and could only act as a support to block Serket's attacks as much as possible.
Serket said with a smile, "Best, with your current strength, even if you use this reckless fighting style, you can't hurt me."
Best flicked his wrist, attempting to use the golden mask to damage his own source power in order to enhance his combat strength.
Swish!
A dark purple scorpion tail lashed out from behind Serkett with lightning speed, instantly wrapping around the golden mask on Best's wrist.
The sharp barbs pierced Best's skin, and the dark purple scorpion venom spread rapidly throughout her body along her blood vessels.
"Best!"
Serket threw the injured and unconscious Best directly at Hathor.
Hathor leaped to catch Best, but was slashed on the arm by the sharp scorpion tail. The wound turned blackish-purple, and the venom spread throughout her body along with her blood.
"you……!"
A strong wave of dizziness washed over him, and Hathor fainted instantly, collapsing to the ground like Best.
Serket slowly retracted his scorpion tail, held it in his hand and shook it, a slight smile playing on his lips.
boom!
Horus was slapped down by the giant lion that had leaped high into the air, and he fell to his knees on the deck.
"Hator! Best!"
Horus watched as his wife and allies were defeated and fell to the ground, and his heart burned with rage.
Serket walked up to Horus with a smile, “The brave and fearless god of vengeance, even with one eye missing, is still valiant in battle.”
"But look around you. There's no one behind you anymore. How can you possibly withstand the Nine Pillar Gods all by yourself?"
"Surrender, Horus. Stop your futile struggles. No matter how high the eagle flies, it can never contend with the sun."
Horus slowly rose to his feet, before whom stood the colossal lion god Mahes and the scorpion goddess Serket.
Not far away lay his beloved girl and his most steadfast ally.
Behind him, Anubis and Sobek stood by and did nothing, even able to easily subdue him and make him apologize to the sun god Ra.
On the solar boat, only Horus remained, fighting alone.
Horus glanced down at the bleeding wound on his chest and said with a cold laugh, "Even if I'm the only one left, I will fight to the very end!"
“Hmm, even I admire your courage, but,” Serket said with a slight smile, “how are you going to play next?”
A faint light emanated from the scorpion tail behind Serket, and Best and Hathor, who were lying on the ground, slowly rose like puppets.
Their eyes turned bloodshot, like those of enraged beasts, making it impossible to distinguish friend from foe. Under Serket's control, they slowly walked toward Horus.
The Scorpion Goddess smiled wickedly, "I'd like to see what you'll choose when your wife and ally both turn against you?"
……
Human circle.
As Gu Tianchen smashed all nine temples of the Nine Pillar Gods to pieces, the burning sun in the sky gradually lost its brilliance.
Gu Tianchen looked up and saw that the huge sun was gradually shrinking, finally turning into an eyeball and slowly falling into the center of the square.
"This is the Eye of Horus?"
Gu Tianchen pinched the glowing eyeball between his thumb and forefinger, lifted it up, and looked up at the sky.
