Chapter 23 - The Awakened Mummies

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The help of the desert eagle was equivalent to having a pair of eyes in the sky. It could help him to avoid a lot of risks. Even so, Shen Fei was still somewhat worried.

After all, Monica had sensed the aura of death and danger earlier. This desert was full of dangers, not to mention that the ruins were completely new and had yet to be explored. No one knew what was there.

It’s just like exploring a game dungeon. There’s no knowing what kind of monsters he’ll encounter. Shen Fei hesitated for a moment and decided to give the mithril set to Monica, who has the best combat ability.

Compared to her sister, Monie, as a dark fairy, Monica had not just the ability to release curses, but also excellent combat ability. Monie was more akin to the team healer that applied all kinds of blessings and positive status.

“Monica, put this on.”

The mithril set could change according to the size of the owner’s body. There was a flash of white light, and it fit perfectly on Monica. It was like a pool of moonlight wrapped around her exquisite body.

In particular, the neckline in the middle was in a deep V shape, extending all the way down. On the lower half of her body was a pair of extremely short pants, revealing her milk-like skin. It was like some sort of uniform temptation.

Although Monica’s figure was petite, every part that should exist was present. The undulating mountains and valley attracted the full attention of the people in the live stream.

“Eh, the screen is dirty. I want to lick it.”

“Oh my god, I didn’t expect there to be such depths to Monica.”

“Previous commenter, I suspect you’re being lewd and there’s evidence.”

“Awww, I’m a girl, and I’m enjoying it.”

“Previous commenters, you guys are so useless. Can we have 10,000 sign a petition in blood for Monica to grow up?”

At this moment, Shen Fei did not know that the viewers in the live-stream were already indulging in fantasies. His slightly admiring gaze swept past Monica’s body, and he sincerely praised, “You look very good in it.”

After being praised by him like this, Monica’s pointy ears started to turn pink. It was as if the colorful clouds on the horizon had landed on her body.

Shen Fei looked at the geomantic compass in his hand. There’s still some distance between them and the ruins. If they were to walk, it would probably delay their journey by a lot.

He looked to the side in the corner of his eye and saw that there was still some wood left to build the house, neatly arranged there. He immediately had an idea and decided to follow the previous method.

Previously, he did not have enough materials, so he could only build a wooden board to surf the sand. Now, all this wood was enough for him to showcase his skills.

Everyone in the live stream saw him tinkering with something. Not long after, a small yacht was made. Although it looked a little rough, being able to make something like this in a short time was already the best that could happen.

“Wow, I just want to ask if there’s anything he can’t do.”

“He used wooden planks to surf the sand earlier. This is really an upgraded version. He’s close to creating a speedboat. I won’t find it strange if he creates aircraft carriers in the future.”

“There’s nothing unusual here. We are already a mature audience. We have to learn to be calm. After all, this big shot is not an ordinary person. We can’t judge him with ordinary thoughts.”

Shen Fei sat inside and packed his things simply. Then, he called for Monie and Monica to start their journey. He activated the talent of the “Desert Emperor”. If there were no waves, he would create waves.

The sand that was half the height of a person suddenly lifted, as if it were really a huge wave on the surface of the sea. Wave after wave, it crashed onto the wooden boat.

Like an arrow that was released from a bow, Shen Fei and the boat sped forward with a “whoosh”. The speed was much faster than before, and also more comfortable.

Everyone in the live stream was amazed.

Along the way, everything was calm. Nothing happened. Shen Fei sat on the boat leisurely. Compared to the other live streams, where players were frazzled from fighting with the oases bosses, Shen Fei was extremely comfortable..

Following the instructions of the geomantic compass, the ruins quickly appeared in front of Shen Fei. Similar to what he had guessed, it was indeed a pyramid.

The huge sphinx statue stood at the front like the most loyal sentinel, watching Shen Fei’s arrival.

The pyramid looked rather ancient. Even though some parts of it had fallen off, revealing the mottled walls, its former glory could not be concealed. A corner of sealed history was lifted, and the civilization buried in the yellow sand finally revealed its mysterious face.

Looking at the majestic building in front of them, expressions abounded among people in the live stream. However, they found that Shen Fei suddenly stood at his original spot, not moving forward.

“What’s going on? Could it be that Shen Fei is stunned into a daze?”

“The pyramid is right ahead. Hurry up and charge in.”

“Hurry up and go in. I’m dying to know what’s inside the pyramid.”

Everyone in the live stream was very puzzled, but they didn’t notice Shen Fei’s expression change as his gaze fell onto the yellow sand.

Due to the talent of the Desert Emperor, he formed a subtle connection with the yellow sand and could clearly feel that there was something under the sand.

The yellow sand suddenly roiled, but it wasn’t because of Shen Fei’s manipulation.

In the blink of an eye—

Boom!

A loud sound startled everyone in the live stream. The desert not far away suddenly caved in, turning into extremely dangerous quicksand. Something was struggling to crawl out from the ground.

It was as if Shen Fei’s arrival had awakened some kind of ancient and mysterious existence. A pair of withered hands appeared on the ground. The decayed bandages were stained with the color of yellow sand, full of Egyptian characteristics and fluttering in the wind.

What’s most abundant and famous in Egypt besides pyramids?

In the live stream, a word appeared in everyone’s mind: “mummy”!

An army of countless mummies crawled out of the ground, densely packed, as if this land was where they reposed. Even though the bandages on their bodies were decayed and tattered, it did not mean that they lacked combat prowess.

Moreover, these mummies were armed with all sorts of weapons and looked like they were well-trained. It was hard not to make guesses regarding their identities. Perhaps they were once warriors who had chosen to enter an eternal slumber in this place to protect the Pharaoh’s mausoleum.

They would definitely kill any invaders on the spot without hesitation.

There were only two black holes left where their eyeballs should be. It was a chilling sight. Countless mummies instantly surrounded Shen Fei and the others, like wrapping a dumpling. This time, Shen Fei wouldn’t be able to escape.

Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone in the live stream couldn’t help but feel nervous for Shen Fei..
