Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Ling Ling glanced at Apas as she watched Mofan leave.
"It looks like we have to continue robbing the Pharaoh's Spring," Ling Ling said.
"Mmm, the Space-Time Eye won't work if it's dried up," Apas nodded. The Crimson Serpent Evil Dragon had climbed up to her.
"Let's hope it can be resolved. Otherwise, Cairo might just disappear from the map forever," Ling Ling said.
Thinking of the bustling city that had been completely turned into sand and seeing those people who had been turned into stone statues, Lingling was also deeply worried at this moment.
…
After returning to Orange Sand Town, Ling Ling went to a wine cellar.
Ling Ling turned on her tracker. She noticed that the traps she had set up were moving.
They were all heading toward Orange Sand Town. They were most likely excited to hand over the quest and earn the recognition of the Hunter Union. Unfortunately, they had no idea that Cairo had been completely turned into sand. The whole of Egypt had fallen into an unprecedented panic!
Ling Ling told Apas's pet snake where the people were. She went deeper into the cellar.
The Senior Hunter was locked up in there.
If news of her kidnapping a Senior Hunter spread, she would have to sever ties with the Hunter Union. How could she possibly become the first Huntress of China?
"What are you trying to do?" The Black Elephant King's face was dark to begin with. His face darkened further when he was being held hostage by a young woman.
"So why did the Hunter Union decide to use the Pharaoh's Spring as the theme of the Hunter Competition?" Ling Ling asked.
"We need a quest. It's very difficult to find the Pharaoh's Spring. Isn't it a perfect test for all the Hunters?" the Black Elephant King said.
"Stop pretending, the Forbidden Mages in the Pyramid are trapped. Their escape has nothing to do with the Pharaoh Spring. The Pharaoh Spring's only function is to grant the Undead Medusa the power source of Cairo City. Therefore, you are the traitor that colluded with Khufu. Why did you choose to be a lackey of the Undead instead of being a good person? Black Elephant King, do your ancestors in the tomb know about this? Or are your ancestors already Khufu's lackeys too?" Lingling questioned the Senior Hunter coldly.
Professor Tong Zhouzheng opened his mouth in surprise. He wanted to say something, but he realized it was not the right time.
"Nonsense, how could I collude with the Undead? How dare a little girl like you curse my ancestors!?" the Black Elephant King's Voice.
"Then tell us the reason, why is it the Pharaoh's Spring?" Ling Ling demanded.
"It's an ancient contract, a soul contract signed between the royal family of Egypt and the God of Darkness. The contract is no longer valid after the decline of the royal family and the replacement of the God of Darkness. However, it somehow ended up in Khufu's hands. Khufu used it to threaten Hunter Kui, asking him to find the Pharaoh's Spring for him …" the Black Elephant King finally revealed the truth.
The Black Elephant King had seen everything that had happened outside. He knew very well that the whole thing had something to do with the Hunters. However, as a Hunter King, he could not bear the responsibility of Cairo being petrified.
He pretended he did not know anything.
"So Hunter Kui is the traitor?" Lingling continued to interrogate.
"I think so. I already suspected it when the Forbidden Mages were trapped in the Great Pyramid of Giza, but …" the Black Elephant King said.
"How are you going to prove it?" Ling Ling asked.
"Hunter Kui is a descendant of Egypt's royal family. His power originates from the Pharaoh. How could the Mother Medusa be revived without the help of the only Forbidden Undead Mage in Egypt? After all, the Pharaoh's Spring is still scattered everywhere! "the Black Elephant King said.
Ling Ling immediately realized!
That was right, Apas did mention that without the Pharaoh's Spring, the Mother Medusa would not be able to turn into an undead so easily and cast such a powerful Eye of Destruction.
However, with the help of a human Forbidden Undead Mage, it would be easier for the Mother Medusa to turn into an undead!
A Forbidden Undead Spell …
Why didn't she think that a Forbidden Undead Mage had awakened the Mother Medusa together with Khufu!?
Ling Ling believed the Black Elephant King after hearing his words. However, it was difficult to verify whether the Black Elephant King was a fake. After all, it was possible that he would listen to everything the Hunter Kui said.
The Hunter Kui was the leader of the Senior Hunters. Every country would choose two Senior Hunters, and the headquarters of the Hunter Union would choose two more Hunters. One of the Hunters was in Egypt, the strongest Forbidden Undead Mage in Egypt!
The human's Forbidden Magic.
Khufu's Mummy Spell.
The combination of the two had allowed the Mother Medusa to return to the world and bring great calamity to Cairo!
Therefore, it was obvious that the Hunter Kui was the reason why the Forbidden Mages were trapped in the Pyramid. The Pharaoh's Spring was to protect the Mother Medusa's corpse. Meanwhile, Khufu had used an ancient dark contract he had obtained from somewhere to bring great chaos to Egypt!
"What kind of contract?" Professor Tong Zhouzheng asked.
"Do you know the origin of the deathlight?" the Black Elephant King asked.
"I did. Legend has it that there was a woman called Khonsu in ancient Egypt. She made a deal with the God of Underworld, but she betrayed him in the end. She tried to use a Dimensional Triangular Prism to reflect the deathlight. The God of Underworld could only move in places where the deathlight shone upon. The God of Underworld was infuriated. He thought humans were as shameless as Khonsu, so he vented his anger on every city that the deathlight shone upon … in the end, someone could not stand it any longer and crushed Khonsu's Dimensional Triangular Prism into pieces. The pieces turned into billions of pieces and scattered across Egypt. When Egypt's climate changed, the pieces of the Dimensional Triangular Prism would gather together and refract the light, resulting in mirages in the Pyramids and some tombs. The phenomenon was as unpredictable as the weather, and it would appear close to any city in Egypt … "Professor Tong Zhouzheng said.
"The Hunter Kui was Khonsu's descendant. Khonsu used her deal with the God of Underworld to become the ruler of a region. The God of Underworld wasn't Khufu, but an ancient God of Darkness. He hated Egypt, so he gave Khufu the right to trample all over the cities. Khonsu's descendants were unable to break free from the restrictions of the soul contract, "the Black Elephant King said.
"The mirages caused Egypt to be tortured by the undead for thousands of years. The culprit, Khonsu, was even despised by Egypt. As her descendant, the Hunter Kui did not dare tell the public about it, so he chose to beg Khufu for the contract?" Ling Ling asked.
"Yes …" the Black Elephant King said.
"How do you know so much about it? Did the Hunter Kui tell you everything?" Professor Tong Zhouzheng asked doubtfully.
"Because … because I'm restricted by the contract too. I'm his nephew," the Black Elephant King blurted out in the end.
The situation was more serious than he had imagined.
If Cairo really turned into dust, he would be a sinner who would be cursed for thousands of years.
He could not bear the burden.
He hoped everything would come to an end.
"Mofan, did you hear what he said?" Ling Ling asked as she touched the earpiece beside her ear.
"Mm, I think I have some clues … I … will … see … you … soon …"
"Hey, your signal isn't good."
"I was just outside the eye of the tornado, but I'm here now. I can still get a signal!"
"Let's collect the rest of the Pharaoh Spring as soon as possible. That being said, the Black Elephant King only has information about a few groups of Hunter Masters. I'm afraid the other groups have already told the Hunter Union the location of the Pharaoh Spring. The Hunter Union must have listened to the Hunter Kui. They must have sent their experts to retrieve the Pharaoh Spring …" Ling Ling said.
"I'll ask Little Flame Belle to help you. She's with Xinxia in Parthenon right now, but the Parthenon has a teleportation formation. She should be able to send you the Pharaoh Spring soon," Mofan said.
"Mm, you should retrieve the Space-Time Eye as soon as possible … by the way, don't tell me you flew past our country from the east, across the Pacific Ocean, and headed to Peru in South America? You should be able to reach Peru sooner with your speed, "Ling Ling recalled the direction Mofan had left in.
"Ling Ling, I know I'm an idiot when it comes to geography, but I'm not retarded. Of course I was flying to Peru from the Pacific Ocean! "Mofan said angrily.
"Alright, don't go the wrong way on your way back. Otherwise, Cairo is done for," Ling Ling said.
"Mm, got it. Damn it, I didn't go the wrong way, I know the Earth is round … "Mofan suddenly yelled angrily.
Unfortunately, the signal was having trouble. Ling Ling could no longer hear Mofan's explanation.
