1592 The Sequence of the Chambers

Her limbs were still a little stiff. She had to wait for a few minutes before beng able to move again. However, her eyes never left Mo Fan as she waited.

Mo Fan had really scared the Great Ruler-level creature away!

“How did you do it?” Heidi’s eyes were full of doubt.

When the others recovered, they had the same look in their eyes. They had all witnessed how Mo Fan had driven the Scorpion Lord Medusa away. To their disbelief, the Scorpion Lord Medusa acted as if Mo Fan did indeed beat it up in the past!

How was that even possible!?

Despite how strong Mo Fan was, he was still as insignificant as a bug to the Scorpion Lord Medusa. Was the Scorpion Lord Medusa the kind that would scream and run around the house like a little girl after seeing a little spider or caterpillar?

The group remained silent for a long time. Shreev led them to the door he believed was correct. The others followed him, their minds still blank.

They eventually reached the passage. It felt a little safer there. They slowly turned around to look at the chamber.

They stood in the passage for some time, still wondering if everything that happened was real. Did they really just walk out of the chamber of the Scorpion Lord Medusa perfectly unharmed?

“Mo Fan, you’re really something. That Scorpion Lord Medusa is really scared of you after you beat it up the first time. It actually let us pass!” Zhao Manyan knew the details of the invasion of the Great Pyramid of Giza, so he was not too surprised by the Scorpion Lord Medusa’s reaction. He walked up to Mo Fan and patted him heavily on his shoulder.

“Ugh…” Mo Fan fell feebly to the ground after Zhao Manyan patted him on the shoulder, covered in cold sweat.

His shirt was soaked through in just a few seconds. His breathing was heavy, and his face was extremely pale!

“What’s wrong?” It gave Zhao Manyan quite a huge fright. He quickly helped Mo Fan up.

“I’m fine…I’m fine, it’s just, I almost wet myself!” Mo Fan took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Heidi, Shreev, and Meos were utterly dumbfounded. Wasn’t Mo Fan acting all mighty and smug just then? They almost believed he was actually a deity in human form, who had decided to show his true power when facing the Scorpion Lord Medusa. Why did he look so miserable all of a sudden?

“We are in grave trouble!” Mo Fan told Zhao Manyan.

“What trouble? Isn’t it working so far? You managed to scare the Scorpion Lord Medusa away. Perhaps the rest of the chambers are guarded by creatures that you’ve beaten up before. Our path is full of green lights. If you can’t scare them, you can just beat them up again! I think we’re pretty close to the Day and Dusk Compass. Khufu is in deep sleep, too. If we can take care of his annoying subordinates, our job here will be done!” Zhao Manyan exclaimed.

Mo Fan dragged Zhao Manyan to the side and whispered in his ear.

Zhao Manyan burst out laughing and slapped Mo Fan on the shoulder. “HAHAHA, are you seriously joking with me at a time like this? Do you think I’m going to believe you? I know that you will only use it as a last resort…”

Mo Fan stared at Zhao Manyan, using the sincere look in his eyes to convince Zhao Manyan that he was not joking, he was being dead serious!

Zhao Manyan’s smile stiffened. He grabbed Mo Fan by the collar and cursed, “F**k your cousin’s sister, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Only a psycho would go inside a Pyramid with you if it wasn’t for your trump card, and now you’re telling me you don’t even have your trump card? I’ll kill you and kill myself!”

“Calm down, calm down! Zhao Manyan, stop behaving like a mad dog all the time!” Mu Bai quickly pulled Zhao Manyan back.

“Seriously, why do I always be friends with the wrong person?!…” Zhao Manyan was about to lose his mind.

Mo Fan was about to go crazy, too. It turned out that his Demon Element had been unavailable all along. Xinxia did remind him that he would not be able to use the Demon Element for a year or two. If he forced himself, it would only result in greater consequences. Mo Fan had not thought much about it. He thought Xinxia was just worried he was overburdening his body.

To his surprise, the demon in his body was indeed hibernating. He could feel his organs trembling when he recalled how reckless he had been throughout the journey!

“Mo Fan, so what was that when you were facing the Scorpion Lord Medusa?” Mu Bai asked. He roughly guessed what was going on.

“I was just acting,” Mo Fan replied a trembling voice.

Life was but a show that relied heavily on a person’s acting skill. Mo Fan knew he was dead for sure when he realized he could not use the Demon Element. However, he happened to notice the fear on the Scorpion Lord Medusa’s face. He decided to go with the flow, using the presence of the Demon Element that might deflate at any second, to pretend that he was going to fight the Scorpion Lord Medusa to the death!

It was indeed thrilling now that he recalled what had happened. If the Scorpion Lord Medusa doubted him just a little, the Scorpion Lord Medusa would be picking its teeth by now, and it was his meat that would be stuck between them…

“So you’re saying we don’t even have a backup plan?” Mu Bai asked.

“Mm, there’s none,” Mo Fan admitted with a wry smile.

They initially had the Queen of the Netherworld as their backup, but she was now busy handling the Snake Scorpion Horde. If the second chamber was guarded by the Scorpion Lord Medusa, the next two chambers… Mo Fan seriously thought they should consider ending their lives peacefully while they still had the chance!

“Old Zhao, can’t you Summon your tortoise over?” Mo Fan asked after giving it some thought. It was most likely the only thing they could rely on.

“Summon my ass, we are in a Pyramid protected by magic Formations. Why don’t you give the Black Totem Snake a satellite call and ask him to come over instead?” Zhao Manyan grunted back.

“It was a mistake, I miscalculated,” Mo Fan admitted.

As a matter of fact, even provoking a Super Mage was a foolish act when Mo Fan’s Demon Element was not available. He could not help but wonder where he had found his courage to challenge a higher-level Mage!

“Mo Fan, if we can survive this, can we just break off with one another?” Zhao Manyan sighed.

“Old Zhao, don’t be like that, we’ve overcome the most difficult situations. Do you think it’s going to be harder the next time?” Mo Fan reassured him.

“I believe there wouldn’t be a last time or this time if I wasn’t with you. Mo Fan, we are just Advanced Mages. The others might even think we are f**king Forbidden Mages if they knew what we’ve been through!” Zhao Manyan snarled.

“You’re right…” Mo Fan humbly accepted the condemnation.

Mo Fan agreed he should be more humble and stay lower-profile when his Demon Element was still hibernating. If there was a way to leave the Great Pyramid of Giza, Mo Fan would surely be the first to leave now. Damn it, he was going to pay for this with his life. He was still so young, he had yet to have a lot of babies with Xinxia and Xuexue, he did not want to die!

“What are you all talking about?” Shreev was confused.

Meos and Sayed had no idea what Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were yelling about, as they were talking in Chinese.

Heidi did not understand them either, but she remembered how they had mentioned the Great Pyramid of Giza had shown up in China’s Beijiang. She could not help but think that Mo Fan had indeed fought against these powerful creatures before…

But the question was, how did he do it? He was only an Advanced Mage!

Were the accusations from the Holy Judgment Court and Heresy Judgment Court real? Did the guy really have some forbidden power in him?

“Actually, we don’t have to be so depressed,” Shreev spoke up after he felt a different atmosphere from the group.

“We aren’t depressed, we just lost our will to live!” Zhao Manyan sighed.

“…” Shreev noticed how low-spirited everyone was. He said, “Didn’t I mention before? There are certain patterns to the four doors. It’s like a Rubik’s cube; it might seem complicated, but once we find the right patterns, we will be able to solve the mystery. We’ve taken a few correct doors, so I should be able to deduce the sequence of the chambers.”

“What difference is that going to make?” Zhao Manyan said.

“Of course it makes a difference to us! Once we know the sequence, we can easily avoid the chambers with powerful guardians. For example, we’ve reached the chamber of the Scorpion Lord Medusa from the Advisor Mummy’s chamber, but if we know the sequence, we can take the right door, next the front door, then the back door, and finally the front door to reach the correct chamber by skipping the Scorpion Lord Medusa’s chamber,” Shreev said.

“We can skip them?” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered.

“Yes, if we go inside a chamber and realize the Mummy is too strong for us, we can just skip it, even though it would mean passing through more chambers and encountering more Mummies. Well, it’s still better than fighting a strong creature like the Scorpion Lord Medusa, right?” Shreev asked brightly.
