Chapter 019 Gold Mask

Zhuo Lie died and died miserably. His whole body was burned, his body was pierced, his head was blown up, and his eyebrows were a big scar from the mouth of the bowl.

Lin Xiao naturally didn't know Zhuo Lie's past and didn't care about the man's final confession and redemption. Instead, he kicked away the gray wolf wagging his tail and curled his lips:

"It's up to you to eat scorpions and snakes, but eat people in front of me... You are too bold. Believe it or not, I will kill you and drink it?

"Wow." The gray wolf sobbed pitifully and then walked silently to the corner of the wall.

"Ah, but when I leave, you can do whatever you want. Lin Xiao was really shameless, and he threw away the last bit of integrity between the two words.

In my ear, the solemn reminder sounded:

"If you kill the number E3927, you can randomly select a piece of equipment for the current target. Do you want to extract it?"

"Yes."

"Ding, you got the sacred necklace."

"Holy God-given necklace, C-level props. Strength +5, spirit +5. The only active skill: blessing. It can relieve the abnormal state applied to the body. Including dizziness, blindness, silence, locking and so on. If it is a continuous abnormal state, it can last for ten seconds. Selling the dominant space can be exchanged for 1000 points. Current usage: 1/3. It can't be charged, and it will be destroyed after energy is exhausted.

"Master's comment: This is a necklace opened by a Roman cardinal. One day in a certain month, a young believer with a sense of justice rushed into the werewolf gathering place with a long gun, and then... Then the necklace fell into the hands of the werewolf.

Lin Xiao: "..."

Although this necklace is only a C-level prop, its attributes are excellent, which can relieve various abnormal states and even save lives at some moments. However, it is a pity that there is only one last opportunity to use it. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it's the credit of this necklace that Zhuo Lie was able to break the bondage of the holy light just now.

After playing, Lin Xiao casually put the necklace into the mark. Just as he was about to leave, the big gray wolf ran over and kicked a golden mask to Lin Xiao.

"Hmm?" Lin Xiao looked at the big gray wolf shaking his head and tail, bent down and picked up the golden mask. At the moment when the finger touched the mask, the master's prompt sounded: "You got the golden mask and rewarded 1,000 points."

"!!!"

"Golden mask is a golden mask worn by Tutkamon when he is buried. After wearing it, it will trigger world-class continuous hidden missions, and can be immune to mental attacks and mental strength +10. If you sell it to the dominant city, you can get 2,000 points.

Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "What is a world-class continuous hidden mission?"

The master did not pretend to be stupid and quickly gave an answer: "World-class continuous hidden missions are a series of task chains. Adventurers must trigger and complete tasks in different trial scenarios, and the final reward is not clear."

Lin Xiao touched his chin and was speechless for a long time.

The golden mask accidentally kicked by the gray wolf actually triggered a world-class continuous hidden mission. Isn't this luck really too exaggerated? Moreover, this task has a big name, and the difficulty of world-class tasks is necessarily not low. In terms of rewards, the master is unclear. The key is the punishment for the failure of the task, which is not clear.

Golden Mask, Tutkamon... They are all famous in history.

The Egyptian golden mask, worn after the death of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutkamon in the 14th century BC, was found in his mausoleum. When his mummy was unearthed, his head was covered with a golden mask, which made him the most famous Egyptian pharaoh known in modern times. The mask was commensurate with the size of a real person's face and just covered his face. The mask is made of gold foil and is embedded with gemstones and stained glass. The forehead is decorated with the eagle god and the cobra god, symbolizing the upper and lower Egypt (the upper Egypt takes the eagle as the protector and the snake god as the protector in Lower Egypt); the beard hangs below, symbolizing the god Osiris.

The mask is one of the most exquisite art treasures in the world.

Tutankhamun (meaning "Amon image" in Egyptian) was the twelfth pharaoh of the 18th dynasty during the New Kingdom of ancient Egypt, reigning from about 1333 BC to 1324 BC. He is not the most meritorious pharaoh in ancient Egyptian history, but he is the most famous Egyptian pharaoh king today.

He reigned at the age of 9 and died violently at the age of 19. The cause of death was once hung from murder, so his whole body was shrouded in mystery.

As for the legend of the golden mask and Tutkamon, there is a lot of opinions. Among them, the most suspense is... The curse of the pharaoh. Also known as the curse of Tutankhamun.

When Tutankhamun's tomb was discovered in 1922, it was the smallest but best-preserved mausoleum of Egyptian emperors. After the excavation, all kinds of strange deaths came to my face, with a strong mystery.

The first victim of Tutankhamun's spell was Canafon. The cause of death was a lump on his cheek. A few months ago, when Canavon entered the entrance of Tutankhamun's mausoleum, his left cheek was suddenly stricked by something, and the wound was suddenly swollen and painful. A few days later, Canavon was admitted to a hospital in Cairo. In the early morning of April 15, 1923, the nurse on duty suddenly heard Canafeng shouting, "I'm done!" I'm done! I have heard the call..." After the nurse rushed to him, there was a sudden power outage and it became dark everywhere. Five minutes later, when the lights were back on, (the cause of the power outage at that time was to be investigated) people rushed to Canafon's bed and saw him staring wide in horror, half his mouth, and he was cut off. Strangely, when Tutankhamun's mummy was later examined by X-rays, it was found that there was also a scar on his left cheek, which was exactly the same shape, size and part as the lump on Carnarvon's left cheek.

This is more than that, or just the beginning.

Carnarfon's death is just the beginning of a series of deaths. Soon, the nurse who cared for Canavon in the Cairo hospital also died suddenly, and the cause of death is unknown. After taking a few photos of Professor Azibart Lide, who had X-rays for Tutankhamun, suddenly had a high fever and died soon after returning to London. Since then, Canafon's assistants and scholars and experts who participated in excavations and investigations have mysteriously died. In addition, an American who was accompanied by Carter to visit Tutankhamun's tomb died of a high fever the next day. After visiting the excavation site of the mausoleum, a South African tycoon fell from a yacht into the calm Nile and drowned. The strangest thing is that Carnarvon's widow also died in 1929. It is reported that she was also stung to death by insects, and the stinging area was also on her left cheek. In just 6 years, more than 20 people have died inexplicably. People call this series of tragedies the "Curse of Tutankhamun".

In fact, modern scientific research has proved that only 5% of the first people to enter the tomb of King Tután died abnormally.

Is the bizarre death of many people in a short period of time a curse or a nightmare? Whatever it is, it can't hide the mysterious light of this golden mask.

Lin Xiao frowned and hesitated for a moment, and finally put the mask gently on his face...

"Ding: You have activated the second stage of the continuous hidden task. The content of the task, please get the Sun before the end of this task scene, and the reward is unknown. If the mission fails, the golden mask will officially disappear.

"Ding: You have been cursed by Tutankhamun, and your vitality is gradually losing. This state is a special state, and the current survival period is 7 days."

"..." Lin Xiao: "Damn! I knew there was nothing so good!!"

Curiosity killed the cat, which is true... However, it is gratifying that the Sun Sutra is outside. As long as Pharaoh is killed, it is not difficult to seize the Sutra.

After taking off the mask, Lin Xiao looked at the status bar. Tutkamon's curse was still flashing. Obviously, he would not fail without wearing a mask.

curled his lips, and Lin Xiao was looking for any other props that could trigger the task. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion outside, and the firelight danced wildly.

Lin Xiao patted her forehead: "It's noisy and disturbing... Let's solve the pharaoh first!"
