[Comprehensive Anglo-American] The First Mutant

The black storm circle was very wide, and Phoenix and the others had Asazo lead the way, and it was already past eight o'clock at night when they entered the Egyptian territory.There is a border city at the end of the route he chose, and its city walls can be vaguely seen away from the storm circle.Simple and majestic, made of sand and stones, standing at the gate of the city, you will feel the vicissitudes of life.

Before Azazuo could say anything, an old man's voice came from the city wall, asking in Egyptian, "Asazuo is a warrior?"

Everyone who had updated the "language library" telepathically by Phoenix could understand it. Azazuo performed a warrior salute and said respectfully: "Wise High Priest Gammons, I am Asazo from Memphis. Those favored by God go to Alexandria to study."

The people on the city tower raised their hands to signal, and the next moment, the closed city gate opened a crack allowing several people to pass through.

Egypt didn’t close the city gates at night to prevent entry and exit. According to Asazzo, entering the city through the gates represented the great respect for visitors from the local priests or city lords.The ancient city gates may not be opened even during the day, and if they are just ordinary visitors, they will naturally enter the city from other intersections.

Phoenix and the others followed Asazo into the city gate, where an old man and six young men were already waiting there.They all wore white linen robes, but the styles were slightly different.The old man looked to be at least 70 years old on the outside, but he was in good spirits. He said to Phoenix and others, "I am Oka, the high priest of Gammons. Guests from afar, welcome."

It seems to be quite enthusiastic, which is quite different from the arrogant and mysterious image in people's impression.

However, Phoenix, the others, and Asazo have carefully inquired about the Egyptian traditions, and these few words of the meeting can reveal some clues.

First of all, "wise" is not a compliment, but a prefix similar to a nickname.Not everyone can have it, which shows that this high priest named Oka is very prestigious in the whole of Egypt, and everyone has the impression that he is full of wisdom.

Secondly, among the six followers he brought, the first two with clothes similar to his should be priests of the temple, and the last four without hair are monks.The high priest led the team and waited for them at the gate of the city, which shows that they attach great importance to their visit.There are priests and monks but no guards, which represents pure welcome. Not only is there no malice, but the standard is quite high.

It seemed that he was laughing and joking all the way, but in fact he was listening very carefully and his mind was turning quickly. Wade couldn't help winking at Phoenix.

Unlike Wade, who has a big brain and guesses casually, Zero knows Phoenix's identity: 【Do they doubt your identity? 】

Otherwise, why would they be treated as if they were received by a city priest?And if it is confirmed, there may be more than one city of priests.

Priest Orca didn't keep them guessing for a long time. After a brief self-introduction, he explained the purpose of coming frankly: "The eagle brought Atum's oracle, and Alexander can't bear the favor bestowed on you by God. The priests of Mu invite you to the holy temple of Atum..."

Oka mentioned the priests of Atum and the temple of Atum with an expression of admiration.Although the Memphis Temple to which Azazuo belongs is the largest temple in Egypt, her power is far from comparable to that of the Atum Temple.Atum, as stated by his dazzling crown, the temple is the original temple, and the priests are the priests closest to the gods. She is the core of Egyptian religion and the holy place in the hearts of the Egyptian people!

Eagles represent storms in Egyptian culture, which means that after they stepped into the circle of storms, the Temple of Atum temporarily changed their minds?

"Do you want to leave after a rest, or to rectify and set off immediately?" Priest Orca even gave Phoenix the right to choose.

【Let me inquire about it? 】Zero question.

Phoenix shook his head at him, and said to Priest Oka, "We are flattered by your kindness. We just admire the Egyptian culture and the power of the gods. As the warrior Asazur said before, going to the Temple of Alexandria to study is already It’s a great honor.”

"This is the arrangement of the Temple of Atum, Mr. Phoenix." Priest Orka didn't even rely on his age, and he seemed to be a peer. "Don't be nervous. I will let my disciples and Asazor The warriors will serve as your guides, and believe me, it will make your travels much more enjoyable."

The priestess on the right side of Priest Orka bent slightly and said softly, "I am Orolo. It is an honor to go to Atum with you."

Accompanied by priests, you don’t need to spend gold coins to go to any city or village in Egypt, and even many places are allowed to enter.For Phoenix and others, it will indeed be more convenient.

But because of this, they will definitely be taken to Atum.It seems a bit forced, but in terms of Phoenix's "status", letting them go to Atum is actually what they want.It is said that the temple of Atum was built on the remains of the god Ra, as if they were guarding each other, and they were alone in the desert. Without the permission of the priests of Atum, the Egyptians could not approach casually.

"Well, let's rest for one night and start tomorrow, thank you for your help." Phoenix thanked with a smile.

Seeing that Phoenix had already decided everything, he didn't say much. Although he was very worried, he went to the temple with Priest Oka to settle down, but everything was well organized.When Phoenix came back, his Egyptian-style single bed had the pillows he was used to at home and several small throw pillows he found temporarily, all of them were round and chubby, looking very cute.

"Do you need to rest now?" Zero hasn't left yet, and he can give Phoenix another massage if he needs it.

"I saw that your own room hasn't been tidied." Phoenix picked up a pillow and patted it, and hugged it into his arms. "Seeing how worried you are, baby, it seems that you have suddenly grown up by four or fifty years."

Zero blinked, squatted at Phoenix's feet, lay on his knees and said in a muffled voice, "Am I so old in your eyes?"

"You won't grow old if you're happy," Phoenix pinched his cheek, "Don't worry about me, it's very comfortable here, take a good rest."

"Dad! Orolo said there is a night market in the city, do you want to..." Mark, who opened the door and came in, imitated Phoenix and raised his eyebrows.

Zero, who buried his head on Phoenix's lap, raised his head, and the two adults looked at him.

Mark scratched his face, pushed back Kurt who came with him, and said dryly: "There is a night market, Dad."

Phoenix stroked Zero's head, caught a glimpse of Orolo waiting in the courtyard outside the window, and said to Mark, "You go first, I'll be right over."

"Okay~" Mark responded briskly, and pulled his little partner to run away.

Although nostalgic for the feeling of being attached to Phoenix, Zero stood up and arranged Phoenix's clothes.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Phoenix could only comfort him in this way.

Coming to Egypt has an impact on all of them. Mutants like Zero, Wade, and Eric have no negative impact. On the contrary, entering Egypt, especially entering the temple, superpowers seem to have been appeased layer by layer Like, become well-behaved and supple.Jarvis jumped over Mark directly, and together with Tony absorbed the escaping energy from the outside world, which put them both into a dormant state—and it was a good thing, Phoenix felt that Tony's spirit was gradually stabilizing.Thranduil felt uncomfortable because of physiological reasons. He was not a species on Earth, and he didn't like Egypt or Egypt very much, because they were not the Alfheim he was familiar with.

Phoenix was different from them, Zero and the others were not negatively affected, but Phoenix was really suppressed.

His energy is restricted by the outside world in Egypt. Only Zero and Wade, who are apostles, have a slight sense of this. Among them, Zero, who has followed Phoenix for the longest time, feels the most clearly.Zero thought that Phoenix was so unsafe, or that it was uncomfortable and unaccustomed to a healthy person whose hands and feet were suddenly tied up.

But in fact, Phoenix also feels very comfortable. Since he let go of the restriction to intimidate the representatives, and then devoured the treasure of Odin, the energy in his body has surged—especially the treasure of Odin, which has the same energy as the Infinity Gem. Vasily did not know what method to use Its energy has been supplemented, and it looks full on the surface, but in fact it is full of impurities.Before the Odin treasure was purified, it was directly absorbed by Phoenix, which made Phoenix feel like he had swallowed a mouthful of sand.

The strange energy in Egypt suppressed him, and at the same time helped him to calm down the restless energy. It was only because the speed was too slow and the progress was not obvious. Zero mistakenly thought that he was forcibly sealing off part of Phoenix's power, so he was so nervous.

If he knew that Phoenix still had more violent power in his body as if he had eaten explosives, he would definitely be more nervous and worried than he is now.

This is what Phoenix does not want to see.If it is zero, relax as before, read the books he wants to read every day, do something he wants to do, one day is only so short, and it will pass quickly, and repeat a similar life the next day, maybe in understanding him People or outsiders seem to be boring and unpromising, but Zero really enjoys that kind of life.

Phoenix looked down at Zero who was tidying up his clothes. He didn't need telepathy, just the weak connection between the master and the apostle. He could feel Zero's mood, which concealed a little worry, but it was still broad and profound. Tranquility, that is a kind of peace from the heart, as if the body and mind are converted.

"Do you want to go to the night market?" Phoenix asked him.

Zero didn't think much, stood up beside him and said, "Okay."

Because Mark has already gone, Phoenix will definitely go, and so will Zero.

When Phoenix hugged his apostles to find the children of Mark, he entered "Egypt" earlier than them, but the Avengers who have not yet entered "Egypt" are quite different from before.

The temperature in the desert at night is extremely low, which soon becomes the basis for them to judge the time.The camels formed a circle to block the wind and sand, and the Avengers sat next to each other beside the camels, listening to O'Connor's quarrel like a circle... mainly Hassan tossed, and the others appeased.

The surroundings are not too warm, the stomach is not too full, and the rest is not good...

They miscalculated the Egypt of this world, the supernatural black storm completely changed the magnetic field, the compass and the map were invalid, and the whole is the land version of Bermuda.Everyone in the Avengers understands this and can bear it, but after three days of walking, there is no definite answer, which makes Hassan, who is used to idleness in the prison, full of complaints, saying that if he can't get out tomorrow, the gang will break up, and he will take him with him. Half of the camels returned the same way.

The way back was submerged by wind and sand, and he didn't know where to go if he really wanted to go back. He just kept complaining.As an outsider and "eating for nothing", the Avengers are inconvenient to express any opinion on this. As far as Tony is concerned, if Hassan really intends to take the camel and break up, he may have to take some tough measures.

Dr. Banner's little green buddy backs it up.

"This is the right way." O'Connor lay on the blanket and looked at the sky without explaining much.

Jonathan had participated in an adventure team in his early years, and he knew that this kind of adventure activity was hard work, and there was nothing wrong with him, so he might as well take this opportunity to take a good rest.Evelyn flipped through her notes for a while, and after roughly counting the time with an hourglass, she came to O'Connor and asked a little excitedly, "Are you looking for Atum's moon ship?"

Natasha would not miss the opportunity to collect information, and immediately showed curiosity: "Atum, the God of the Sunset?"

The well-informed female agent also dabbles in religion, and Evelyn has been discussing the Egyptian mythology of this world with Natasha in the past two days.

O'Connor glanced at the young female scholar, then looked at Natasha on Captain Steve's side, and said in a low voice, "Atum rides on a moon ship and passes through the sky every night, returning to where he is. The mansion on the earth. Follow the direction where it falls, and you will enter Egypt."

As if to verify his words, they were also very lucky. As soon as O'Connor finished speaking, Steve patted Barton next to him and motioned them to look up.

In the dim night sky, a streak of golden fire descended from the sky, dragging its long tail and flashing away.Across the black sand, if you don't squat carefully, you may miss it.

O'Connor calculated in silence for a while, and said to everyone, "We will be able to enter Egypt by noon tomorrow at the latest."
