Mutants' Daily Life [Comprehensive British and American]

Shall we switch people?

After Carlos woke up, he habitually reached out to touch the glasses beside the bed, intending to put them on to wash his face, and then put on the invisible...

However, he touched and touched, but found nothing, and his hand was held.

"Kurt? No, Kurt only has three fingers..."

He said to himself, "Who? Warren? Scott?"

"I'm Ororo. People outside like to call me Storm Goddess."

A gentle female voice that he had never heard before rang softly in his ears. Although it was in English, the articulation of the words was a little blunt, with an accent.

"What? Who are you? Where is this place? Where is it? Goddess? Which god do you belong to? Who is your main god?" Carlos closed his eyes and asked a series of questions in one breath.

In the end, he asked cautiously with a slightly dazed expression, "Could it be that I've time-traveled again?"

"What is crossing?" The female voice calling herself Ororo sounded again.

She seems to have a good temper. Even though she was asked so many questions, she patiently explained one by one: "I am Ororo, and this is Egypt. Also, I am not a god, but people outside like to call me that. God system, what god system? I don’t know. The main god? Our main god is of course the sun god Ra.”

Then she crooned something very ancient in Arabic that seemed to be a prayer.

Carlos frowned while listening, translating unskillfully in his heart.

The general meaning seems to be: "Sing the sun, praise thee, O Ra! Towards thee amazing rise! Rise, shine, make the heavens roll aside. Thou art the king of gods and lord of creation, from thee we come, Holy because of you..."

"It's okay! It's okay!"

Carlos directly interrupted Ororo's prayer: "It seems that I haven't crossed over, and I'm still in that ruined place in Egypt. Then why are you with me, Kurt? Warren, Scott and Jean... Where did everyone go?"

"They're not here." Ororo replied softly, "I brought you here while you were asleep."

Carlos turned his head in surprise, because his eyes were closed and he didn't look in the right direction.

However, this does not prevent him from asking with a little complacency: "Are you in love with me? Seriously, why are the women here so direct? Do you just snatch them home when you see them? Sigh, there is nothing you can do if you are too attractive." , hehehe."

Ororo looked a little confused.

It's not that this heroic black beauty has never been molested before, but she has never been molested by such a peacock and narcissistic guy.

But the strange thing is that she didn't feel any anger in her heart at all, instead she felt a little dumbfounded and joyful.

"No, it's because I received an oracle from God Ra."

While Ororo answered seriously, he stared at this handsome boy with a smile, a little bit reluctant to be mistaken, he was born too beautiful, more delicate and beautiful than the most beautiful dolls sold in those stores.

She couldn't help but gently touched his soft golden curly hair with her fingers, and said in a more gentle tone: "You are so beautiful, God told me to bring you here, God has a mission It's up to you to do it. But don't worry, dear, I won't hurt you, and neither will the great Ra..."

"First of all, a man has to say he's handsome, and...as if he can really do anything to me!"

Carlos raised his chin arrogantly, and said angrily, disdainfully and proudly: "He is your god, not mine. If he dares to do anything to me, my brother will definitely avenge me!"

Ororo hastily covered his mouth with his hands, and shook his head disapprovingly: "You are wrong, child. You can have pride, but you can't be disrespectful to God Ra."

Then, she spoke in a gentle voice about the majesty and glory of God.

Carlos rolled his eyes contemptuously, and just wanted to say: Sister, the way you sell Amway is quite the charm of my friend Nightcrawler back then.But I don't eat it, I just don't eat it, because you have found the wrong god, thank you.

at the same time,

Scott and the others were also worried about Carlos' safety.

"...Storm Goddess, originally named Ororo, an orphan, is suspected to be a mutant who can control the weather (tornado, lightning, rainstorm). In the early days, when her ability first appeared, because she was different from ordinary people, she was almost caught by some ignorant people. The natives of the tribe were burned to death. At that time, there was a highly respected old witch doctor in the tribe, but he saved her in the name of "Blessing of God Ra". Since then, she has been regarded as a goddess by this tribe. People outside have seen her The scene of appearing with the storm, so she is also called the Storm Goddess."

Warren explained in detail what he had asked from the waiter before, and added: "In fact, she has a good reputation in the local area, and she is considered a 'good god'. Many people respect her and worship her. I hope the weather will be smooth. But obviously, is her ability so powerful? Most of the deeds seem to say that she can use small-scale rainstorms and lightning to fight..."

"But I still don't understand why she wanted to arrest Carlos." Kurt said with a confused face.

"Wait, what is that Ra God?" Katie the Phantom Cat asked abruptly.

She said with a thoughtful expression: "Why... I seem to have heard this word somewhere."

"It should have been heard by the Egyptian population."

Qin explained: "The ancient Egyptians believed in polytheism, but Ra is the sun god in Egyptian mythology and is considered the father of all gods. Many pharaohs regarded themselves as gods and often called themselves 'the son of Ra'. Therefore, the god Ra There are a lot of believers in Egypt, probably someone prayed, or brought it out while speaking, it’s not too rare a word.”

Katie frowned and thought about it, but said nothing.

"A local native goddess, why did you kidnap Carlos?" asked Bobby the Iceman.

Perhaps because of his ability, most of the time, when everyone is inevitably flustered, he can always keep calm and get to the point.

"Is it because of the "Black Book of the Dead"?" Hank said with a headache.

As the teacher who led the team, but let the students be kidnapped, he felt guilty and anxious, and couldn't help saying angrily: "In addition to Carlos, the "Black Book of the Dead" was also taken away. I said it was a big problem."

""The Black Book of the Dead", could it be..." Qin's heart suddenly moved slightly, she stood up abruptly, turned and ran out.

"Jin, where are you going?" Katie shouted in surprise.

"She probably found something. Qin has a sense of proportion. She should find out after a while."

Scott said understandingly: "I did a simple analysis. At present, we already know who the other party is, but we don't know her purpose. However, we can't bet that she has no malice towards Carlos, even if it is 'good' God'. So, for Carlos' safety, we must rescue him as soon as possible."

He looked around everyone from behind the red quartz glasses, calmly began to assign tasks and said: "We have to find someone, the kidnapped Carlos is hard to find, but this goddess, since she is the goddess of storm from the local indigenous tribe , there should be a fixed foothold. I suggest that I take a few people to find it first. Here in the hotel, Mr. Hanke will stay behind. After all, other students also need protection. At the same time, we must call Professor Charles as soon as possible, so that He tried to use his abilities to search the vicinity and surroundings, to find Carlos."

Hank nodded, and was the first to agree, "It's a good arrangement for you."

At this time, Qin took a book and walked in quickly again: "I found it! You know, I have been studying the culture of ancient Egypt recently..."

As she spoke, she quickly turned the book to a page and put it in front of everyone: "Look, here is a piece of information describing the "Black Book of the Dead"... [Time cannot be stopped, he turns back in time, Gently extend the end of time backwards infinitely. He returns to the light from the darkness of the ground, yes, the body will also return to the world, the eternal soul, and will never die again].

"What do you mean?" Scott asked.

"It means...resurrection."

Qin was a little nervous, trying to think calmly and said: "Time is turned back, the end is extended, return from the ground, return to the world, and will not die again... If my guess is correct, combined with the not-so-detailed information I heard in the museum before In the eyes of some people, the mythical story, "The Black Book of the Dead", probably has the ability to resurrect the dead."

"You mean?"

Scott, who has always liked to listen to stories, and listened to them very seriously every time, immediately thought: "You mean, those legendary stories about resurrecting mummy?"

"Resurrection, God Ra... ah!"

Katie suddenly shouted: "I also remembered one thing, that day, I went out halfway to visit the museum..."

She recounted the conversation she heard from memory: "I heard what they said about the oracle of God Ra, the resurrection of the high priest... God... Apocalypse, it seems to be the name."

Kurt continued to hold up his paw with only three fingers, and asked ignorantly, "I still don't understand, why did she grab Carlos?"

"Great question, Kurt!" Scott praised him: "The answer is, I don't know either."

He stood up and called names directly: "Jean, Kurt, Warren, you two and I will go find that Storm Goddess."

"Kurt, you can ask her directly when the time comes."

"Bobby, John, and Katie, the three of you follow Mr. Hank and protect the other students."

"Anyone have an opinion?"

Scott looked around: "OK, no, let's go!"

"Wait, I'll look up what Katie said about the apocalypse," Jean said.

"Time is running out, go and come back quickly." Scott enjoined.

On the other side, Ororo took Carlos to the place called 'Amshe Oasis', which was actually a desert.

While skillfully setting up the tent, Ororo chatted friendlyly with the blindfolded Carlos: "Carlos, we have to wait here for a few days."

"What are you waiting for, Ororo?"

"Wait for the men sent by Ra, they will dig up the bones of the high priest Imerton."

"Wait...you just said, Imerton? Is it the villain Imerton in the story told by the museum guide? The one who had an affair with the pharaoh's concubine and was killed; thousands of years later, he was resurrected and killed again." Killed; A few years later, he was resurrected again and killed again. Is it Imerton who has been killed three times in a row?"

"Uh... yes."

"Zeus... This is really terrible. Can't you God Ra change the priest? I think it's too bullying the mummy to kill the mummy priest out here and there. Moreover, Emerton himself is sure It's so annoying! Let's do it, let him be a mummy in the ground, and be quiet for a while, okay?"

"Uh... sorry, no."
