Vampire Family: The Empress's Growth Story

Chapter 139 The Underworld Scepter
When Arthur heard what Tong Wanwan said, the expression on his face immediately became more serious than ever.Immediately afterwards, he slowly opened his hands towards the sky, speaking words that no one could understand.His voice was also deeper than usual, and every word and sentence had a weird rhythm.

Tong Wanwan obediently stood aside without interfering, but felt that these spells were like a key, piercing into her heart bit by bit.At the beginning, Arthur spoke very slowly, as if individual syllables were pulled out of the original sentence to temporarily form a new sentence combination, which seemed unharmonious and even harsh, so that Tong Wanwan wondered if it was He hadn't read the spell for so long that he forgot it.But she quickly denied her thoughts, because the water of the Nile River a few kilometers away had changed under this series of spells, and something was drilling out from the bottom of the river, but it seemed to be particularly heavy and moving very slowly.

With a "crash", this unusually heavy guy finally came out of the water, and Arthur seemed to loosen up, and the rhythm of chanting the spell also became brisk.The river receded, leaving a slender, silver-white staff hanging in the air, and then it landed firmly in Arthur's raised hands.

Tong Wanwan couldn't help but narrowed her eyes.The color of this staff is too dazzling here, a silvery white that is so clean that it is almost holy. Against it, the stars and the moon have no light.She wouldn't be surprised if Arthur said that both moonlight and starlight were taken by it.

The chanting in Arthur's mouth still didn't mean to stop, but there was a new movement in his hand. It was seen that he held the scepter he was holding vertically in his hand, and then thrust it into the ground under his feet.An extremely dazzling ray of light burst out from the crack, like a bolt of lightning, and went straight down the scepter into the depths of the ground.At that moment, Tong Wanwan seemed to hear the roaring sound coming from the depths of the ground, but all this happened only for a moment, and soon the earth returned to calm, the calm land, the calm river, and the calm moonlight.

If it wasn't for Arthur still struggling to stand there leaning on the staff, Tong Wanwan would almost think that she was sleepwalking just now.

"Tong Wanwan, I need your help." Arthur's voice almost came from the back molars, every muscle in his body was tense, obviously not as relaxed as it looked: "I can't move now , there is a pile of stones in the left pocket of the jacket, you take them all out."

Tong Wanwan immediately complied, and took out a whole handful of stones from his robe pocket.Huo, this handful of stones really blinded Tong Wanwan's eyes. As a girl who loves beauty, she naturally recognized them at a glance. These stones are all high-quality gemstones, such as ruby, tanzanite, There are even old pit jades, of all kinds, and they are all the kind with large particles, high water luster, and no impurities.All in all, each one is expensive, and if they are all added up and sold on the market, it will cost several million at least.However, these gemstones are somewhat different from those seen on the market. There is a faint fluorescence inside, which seems to be some kind of complicated and mysterious pattern.

If Li Mu were here, he would immediately tell Tong Wanwan that these are runestones, and they are all very high-quality runestones. Each runestone contains huge energy, it is simply a treasure house.Not to mention a few million, it is simply a priceless treasure.

"Crack." Just as Tong Wanwan was staring at the gems in a daze, a thin crack appeared on the silver-white scepter, and Arthur's expression became more painful.

"Pick five red runestones and press them in the grooves of the handle of the scepter, hurry up!"

"Okay, okay." Tong Wanwan didn't dare to lose her mind, so she did it immediately.The five runes turned into five red lights piercing into the ground, filling the crack.Only then did Arthur breathe a sigh of relief, and cursed in a low voice, "Sphinx, you madman! Don't you want to be reconciled until the river flows backwards?"

Tong Wanwan really didn't know how to respond, so she finally chose to keep silent, silently accompanied the old man who was holding on to the scepter, and looked in the direction of the pyramid.In fact, she can't see anything. This distance is too far for human beings.

When the world lacks a dynamic reference, humans become very insensitive to the passage of time.Tong Wanwan just stood beside Arthur for an unknown how long, maybe 20 minutes, or maybe a few hours.Because her subconscious mind felt that it was not safe to go underground, she dared not sit down and rest even though her legs were sore from standing.

Arthur seemed to understand Tong Wanwan's thoughts, and reminded softly: "Sit down, everyone behind me is safe."

Tong Wanwan thought about it but still didn't sit down, and asked Arthur hesitantly: "Will their battle really affect the city?"

Arthur let out a long sigh: "Why not, almost every battle between the blood races will affect human society, the Black Death, the Witch Movement, and all kinds of sudden plagues, almost all of us are killing each other behind it. Shadow. In fact, we can’t blame us for this. Our racial ability is very different from that of human beings. The battle of the gods in ancient times shook the mountains and rivers. There is no sunshine every year. The corpses of giants are piled up in a row, turning into mountains, blood flowing into ravines, and turning into the River Styx. By the way, there is also a River Styx under the Nile River. I borrowed this scepter from it. There It’s also where Anubis lives, so you should go down and have a look if you have the chance.”

"I still won't go, it's like a good place." Tong Wanwan waved her hands.

"In short, we are not the only ones in this world. Humans, animals, and even plants all need their own living environment. Once they are threatened, they will fight back no matter how weak they are. Lawrence's mother is in our He died in the jihad, so he became a blood race. For the Secret Party, his existence is a constant reminder that although our blood race has the ability, we still need to respect every life, and every life has his existence meaning, and may burst out with huge energy, no matter whether he is a human, a demon, or a god, he is still life."

"Although I don't understand you people well, I understand what you mean."

"Ha, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Anyway, you just need to stand behind me."

The two were talking, and with a "click", a second crack was added to the scepter.

Arthur's face was serious: "Choose five variegated stones and insert them! The Sphinx has not been suppressed yet. It seems that the battle situation is not optimistic. It's a pity that we only have these people, so we can only fight with our backs."

As soon as Arthur finished speaking, a voice shouted from far above the Nile River: "Only these people? Chairman, where do you put us in neutral!"
