Chapter 229 Back to Cairo!
"Really? How do we become official members?"
Qin Zhuiyu's eyes lit up upon hearing this, not expecting there would be a chance to get more reward points, so he immediately inquired.
"Of course it's true. You're newcomers to this horror film, so we won't make too many demands. We'll start evaluating you when we start the next horror film. Don't worry, as long as you don't perform too badly, you'll become a full member."
Although it was just empty talk, Lin Yu wasn't exactly lying. If these newcomers really did well in the next horror movie, Lin Yu would be willing to acknowledge them.
However, Lin Yu didn't think they could do it, because if nothing unexpected happened, the next horror movie would be an extremely difficult one that even Lin Yu would have to be careful of. Let alone perform well, just surviving would be a feat for them.
"Boss, I'll definitely do my best!"
The bald, burly man immediately assured him.
He knew he had performed poorly at the beginning and was in a more difficult situation than other newcomers, so he felt even more pressured.
Lin Yu merely nodded slightly at the bald man's assurance, not taking it to heart. In Lin Yu's view, the man had already been eliminated, and keeping him around was only to drain his reward points.
"Should we now go find Imhotep, who has just been resurrected, and bury him with the Book of the Sun?"
Seeing that Lin Yu and the newcomer had finished their conversation, Zheng Zha asked a question.
Imhotep hasn't regained his powers yet, and they have the Book of the Sun. If they find it, the problem will be easy to solve. Otherwise, once Imhotep regains his powers, things could get very complicated. Movie plots are just for reference, and nobody knows what kind of magic Imhotep would have in his prime. He might cause them a lot of trouble without them even meeting him, so it's best to deal with him as soon as possible.
"No need. Let's go back to Cairo first to prepare for the battle with the Indian team. As for Imhotep, I have other plans."
Lin Yu didn't want to bury Imhotep directly, but wanted to see if there would be any extra rewards for killing him in his prime. Anyway, with his strength, he didn't need to worry about any accidents.
Of course, this killing means eliminating his soul as well, leaving him with no possibility of resurrection.
If the supreme deity had any sense of shame, they should at least offer some decent reward.
Since the next horror movie is already incredibly difficult, it doesn't matter if it gets even harder.
Zheng Zha and the others were somewhat puzzled, not understanding what Lin Yu wanted to do, but since it was Lin Yu's decision, they did not object, and so the group returned to the ground along the original route.
"I want to ask what exactly happened?"
Seeing that Lin Yu and the others seemed to have finished talking, O'Connor approached with a respectful expression and asked what had happened.
"The spell Evelyn uttered resurrected a demon... but don't worry, we'll take care of that demon and protect you."
As Zheng Zha walked, he explained the situation to O'Connor and the others.
Although the distance restriction imposed by the main god is gone, it doesn't mean the male and female protagonists are unimportant. Perhaps the mission of the Indian team is to kill the male and female protagonists, so they can't be allowed to run around.
Several days later, Lin Yu and his group returned to Cairo. At this time, in a hotel in the city, several members of the Indian team were sitting quietly in a room, all sitting cross-legged around a little monk. Suddenly, a girl with her eyes closed stirred slightly and said softly, "The Central Continent team has returned to Cairo. They are currently located near the port."
Although the other party blocked her mental scan, it was precisely because of this that she was able to confirm that the other party had returned and guess their approximate location.
The young monk in the middle asked, "Who is closest to there?"
A tall, thin man with pale skin took out a device the size of a palm, examined it, and then said, "Imani and Muhammad Yoref are closest to there—"
The young monk frowned and said, "Imani's explosive muscle power is too strong, easily causing a disturbance. Muhammad Yorif's high-tech weapons are also unsuitable for fighting in the city—in short, let them test the Middle Continent Squad as usual. Also, have Arot get there as soon as possible. If they are injured, have Arot save their lives; with his medical skills, there shouldn't be too much of a problem—that's it. Let's test the Middle Continent Squad's strength and see if they are prey or enemies who can speak to us on equal terms!"
Although the rewards for team battles are very generous, if the opponent is too strong, it will be a losing proposition. Therefore, it is necessary to test the opponent's combat strength to determine the next strategy.
After disembarking at the port of Cairo, the group headed into the city. Along the way, they cautiously observed their surroundings, knowing full well that an attack by the Indian team could come at any moment.
Zheng Zha, while observing his surroundings, repeated the plan they had discussed the day before.
"If the Indian team attacks, then we'll deal with it as we discussed yesterday. Zero will be in charge of sniping, Zhang Jie will be in charge of covering Zero, Zhao Yingkong will be in charge of assassination, Zhan Lan will be in charge of providing magical support, Cheng Xiao and I will be in charge of close-range attacks, Ba Wang will be in charge of firepower support, Ming Yanwei will be in charge of close-range sniping, and Lin Yu will be in charge of support."
"The other newcomers should hide themselves well and try not to stray too far from Lin Yu. Also..."
Just as Zheng Zha was repeating yesterday's plan, a murderous aura came from not far away. Zheng Zha, Lingdian, and a few others with keen senses immediately turned to look at a certain place outside the crowd.
"————That's right, it's members of the Indian Squad. Such intense killing intent————Emergency situation. We are likely to be sniped here. I don't know if there are any of their people around. Perhaps we are already surrounded."
Sensing the intense killing intent of the Indian team members, Zheng Zha became somewhat nervous.
"It's probably just a test. Zheng Zha and Cheng Xiao, you two go and deal with those two. Try to keep them here. The rest of you, be prepared."
Lin Yu spoke up.
Zheng Zha and Cheng Xiao nodded, took out their weapons and prepared to fight, while the others scattered and took cover.
The muscular, dark-skinned man laughed heartily and said to the bearded man beside him, "Yorif, their reaction was quite quick, but I wonder how strong they are. So, have you chosen your opponents?"
'
Suddenly, a red light flashed in Yoref's hand, and a crimson submachine gun appeared in his palm. He smiled sinisterly and said, "No need to choose. It seems they've already chosen the opponent for us—the old rule, kill the enemy first to win, and the loser gives a thousand reward points to the winner to exchange for something. It seems I'm in a better position."
"Hahaha, that's not necessarily true. Be careful not to get castrated, hahaha—"
The muscular giant laughed loudly. He raised his fist and slammed it into the ground. Instantly, pebbles flew everywhere, and the surrounding civilians cried out in agony. The scattering pebbles were extremely powerful. More than a dozen civilians nearby were easily pierced through the body by the flying pebbles and lost their lives. Civilians a little further away were also seriously injured and lay on the ground groaning.
