MTL - Movies and TV: a New Class Per World-Chapter 227
Li Xu opened a black umbrella, strolled in the dense rain, and walked towards the north bank of the River Thames in London.
Li Xu happened to have watched the movie "The New Mummy", and he was very familiar with the plot in it.
In order to summon the Death God Set to descend, besides the sacrifice, there is one other key thing, and that is the Death God Dagger.
According to the ritual process, the death dagger must be inserted into the heart of the sacrifice, so that the death **** Seth can come back to the world.
The purpose of Li Xu's trip was the ruby inlaid on the death dagger.
A thousand years ago, when the Christian Crusades invaded Egypt, they brought back the murals recording the deeds of Ammanite and the dagger of death.
To be on the safe side, they divided the death dagger into two parts, and kept the dagger body and the ruby on it separately.
The dagger is currently in the Museum, and the ruby is hidden under Westminster Abbey.
Westminster Abbey was built in the year AD. It is a very old Catholic church. Under it, there are many corpses of knights from the Crusades, and the rubies are with these corpses.
…
Rainy days are a feature of London. There is a unique beauty in admiring those Gothic and Victorian buildings in the hazy rain and fog.
Li Xu walked for about half an hour, all the way north along the Thames River, and walked slowly to Westminster Abbey.
··············································
Due to the recent construction of a new subway line across the Thames River in London, the graves where the corpses of the crusaders were buried were accidentally dug out, and the church was temporarily closed to receive believers.
However, this is not a big problem for Li Xu.
He is not a believer, he is a professional priest.
Li Xu took out the long-unused cross from the corner of the system space, put it on his chest, and knocked on the door of the church.
"Sir, the church is not accepting believers recently."
The one who opened the door was a little nun, she was not very old, probably only in her teens, and she looked very young.
After seeing Li Xu, the little nun blushed first, then lowered her head and said timidly.
"I'm not a believer."
.....0.....
Li Xu picked up the cross on his chest, shook it, and said piously: "I am a priest in Los Angeles. I heard the latest news and came to your church to pray for the knights who died in the Crusade."
"They are soldiers of the Lord and deserve such honor."
"Ah?" The little nun was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Why don't I inform the bishop first?"
"Sister, it seems that your heart is not devout enough."
Li Xu shook his head sadly: "The Lord once said that love and honesty meet each other. Would a kind person like me still lie?"
The little nun raised her eyes to take a peek at Li Xu's face, and thought it made sense, how could such a handsome face be a bad guy.
After thinking about it, the little nun pushed open the door, lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Then...then I will let you in first, you and I can go to see the bishop together."
After she finished speaking, the little nun realized that something was wrong, and when she looked up, the person was gone.
"Hello, Father?"
The little nun clutched her little hand nervously, looked around, and searched for Li Xu in the church.
But still not found.
"Could it be...a ghost."
Thinking of the pile of bones that had just been dug out under the church, the nun turned pale and screamed and ran towards the bishop, only to bump into a pair of majestic objects head-on.
"You can't bump into it here."
The young woman in a tight leather jacket supported the little nun, her **** red lips raised slightly: "Little nun, I want to ask you something, is there someone who arrived before me?"
......righteous.
Chapter 310
Since there is no habit of releasing spiritual thoughts in daily life, Li Xu does not know that someone is coming to Westminster Abbey for the time being.
He was walking in a dark tunnel at this time.
The structure of the tunnel is retro and old, and even a section collapsed due to the construction of the subway line, causing the Thames River to seep in.
This is why the tomb has not been excavated for the time being.
The continuous infiltration of river water has resulted in deep water accumulation in the tunnel, reaching more than one meter. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for archaeological work to proceed normally.
Of course, this is nothing to Li Xu.
With his shoes still wet, Li Xu passed through the tunnel and came to the tomb deep in the tunnel.
The tomb has been artificially transformed into a huge dome-like cavity, with Catholic reliefs full of religious colors painted on the surrounding walls, and sarcophagi are neatly arranged on the flat ground of the tomb.
The sarcophagus is still engraved with exquisite reliefs, and the identities of the deceased have different relief styles.
By virtue of this.
Li Xu quickly locked a sarcophagus inside the tomb.
The painting style of this coffin is obviously higher than other coffins. Not only are the reliefs lifelike, but there is also a seraphim Gabriel engraved on it, which is not ordinary at first glance.
Lifted the coffin board and saw that it was so.
The owner of this coffin is the head of the Knights Templar, and a silver cross inlaid with rubies is engraved with the life of the head.
"This one?"
Li Xu took off the ruby from the cross.
As soon as he started, he raised his eyebrows.
There is a strange divine power inside this ruby, if nothing else, it should be the divine power of Seth, the **** of death.
"It seems that there is a **** in this world."
Li Xu threw the ruby in his hand.
That's where it gets interesting.
If he remembered correctly, in the "Mummy Series", there are many Egyptian gods in the background. Since Seth, the **** of death, appeared, it means that other Egyptian gods may also exist.
More importantly, Li Xu speculated that the state of those Egyptian gods was not good.
It is not difficult to deduce this.
The ancient Egypt ruled by the Pharaoh was destroyed by Alexander the Great, and the belief in Egypt was destroyed by the Crusaders... If the gods of ancient Egypt were in good condition, it would be impossible to bear it.
The only possibility is that they are too poor to make a move, and can only watch their faith die.
"In this case, wouldn't it be a shame to bully the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled again?"
The corners of Li Xu's mouth curled up slightly.
His current strength has fallen into a bottleneck period. It took him less than ten years to go from an ordinary person to a mid-level god, and his background is still too shallow.
If you want to improve in the later stage, it may take thousands of years to accumulate foundation.
This time is too long.
Li Xu decided to take a shortcut.
It doesn't matter if his background is shallow, other gods have deep background, such as the Egyptian gods, each of them doesn't know how long they have lived.
Ask them to borrow a little, and his background will soon become deeper.
As for whether the Egyptian gods will borrow it?
Li Xu believes that they should be able to borrow.
If you don't borrow it, you don't give him face.
The consequences of not giving him face are very serious.
thump!
When Li Xu was thinking about these things, there was a faint sound of footsteps coming from the tunnel in the distance.
The footsteps were soft.
If it is an ordinary person, it may not be found at all.
But in Li Xu's ears, the voice was too loud.
Generally speaking, for the convenience of daily life, he will not release his spiritual thoughts, and will suppress his five senses to a certain extent.
After all, if the nose or ears are too sensitive, encountering stench or noise is a painful torture.
But even so, his five senses are still much stronger than ordinary people, and the sound of footsteps can't be hidden in his ears.
Li Xu could even hear that the owner of the footsteps was a woman, and she was a young woman with a strong hand.
"Height 1.76 meters, weight 52 kg, um, good figure."
Li Xu touched his chin.
He didn't use divine thoughts, but simply listened with his ears. Based on his rich experience, this young woman should be very beautiful.
thump!
At this moment, footsteps sounded from far to near.
It could be heard that the owner of the footsteps was very cautious, and his movements became more and more gentle, as if he knew that there was someone in the tomb.
"It seems that he is not a simple person."
Li Xu turned his gaze and hid his figure.
next moment.
A dark-haired woman in a skintight leather jacket rolls in, holding a usp pistol in each hand. …
This pistol uses a modified Browning pistol mechanism as the basic structure. It is accurate and has a low cushioning force. It is very popular in law enforcement and the military.
"Where are people?"
The black-haired woman knelt on one knee and looked around with a gun in a standard tactical action.
According to the information she asked the little nun just now, someone obviously came in first.
"Looking for me?"
Li Xu stood behind the black-haired woman and patted her on the shoulder.
He had already recognized the terrific brunette.
Laura Crawford, the heroine of "Tomb Raider", likes to explore and excavate ancient sites, and is a famous archaeologist.
At the same time, she inherited her father's aristocratic status, has the title of Earl of Abingdon, and is a veritable rich woman.
"Who?"
Laura was very vigilant. After being patted on the shoulder by Li Xu, her slender legs swung around and kicked Li Xu's head straight.
Li Xu blinked, and instead of dodging or avoiding, he took a step forward and put Laura's legs on his shoulders.
This posture is too ambiguous.
Laura twisted her waist, rolled backwards, then stood up straight and raised the USP pistol in her hand: "Don't move."
"Do you still have bullets in your gun?"
Li Xu smiled and shook the two magazines in his hand.
"So fast!"
Laura was a little taken aback.
She didn't realize when Li Xu stole her magazines.
However, Laura is proficient in various fighting techniques, and she is confident of winning even without a gun.
Throw the pistol at Li Xu.
Laura rushed up.
