Chapter 3-1

Zheng was grateful he exchanged the ring. Not only was it a powerful weapon against spiritual beings but that he could store a lot of things in it, like... magical bullets!

Normal magical bullets were inexpensive. The only issue was their difficulty to carry in large quantities. But the Na ring eliminated this drawback. He easily took out a large stack of magical bullets and not only did he restock the ammunition for Jie, Lan and the others in the group but also swapped O'Connell and the other characters' bullets with magical ones. Even though their weapons weren't powerful but every little bit helped in this circumstance. He wouldn't skimp on just some bullets.

As they walked down the stairs of the clock tower, they get more and more anxious the closer they were to the ground. It wasn't limited to the normal people like the characters and newbies, Zheng and the veterans also got nervous.

A thick wooden door blocked their way on the ground floor. Lan immediately casted the acceleration and stamina buffs on everyone. Zheng took our mummy fragments and sands and the Book of the Dead then chanted the spell to create four mummy guards.

The newbies watched it in shock then Zheng kicked open the door, waking them up with the loud sound. He charged out and sprayed with his gun, knocking at least ten walking corpses near him to the ground. The magical bullets were indeed effective. These corpses ignited and several seconds later became a pile of ash.

"O'Connell! Take the lead!" Zheng turned around and said in a hurry.

O'Connell nodded. He looked at Evelyn, and without a word pulled out his two guns and walked in front of the group.

Everyone followed behind him without talking. But there was not even a single walking corpse on the way to their surprise. It wasn't until they made a turn through a valley did they saw a wall of people blocking the way. It was a wide street, at least several thousand walking corpses packed the whole area and ten mummy guards were standing on the walls to the side.

"Pick up your guns! If you don't want to die then give all you have!" Zheng held onto the gun on his left hand and the knife on his right. He shouted and at the same time fired at the mummies.

Everyone followed suit and opened fire at the corpses and mummies. Yet these corpses looked just like normal humans. There were even some kids eleven or twelve years old. O'Connell and some of them hesitated but Jie yelled them to move away as he pulled out a heavy machine gun, the same one he used in the last movie. As soon as the others moved to the side, he opened fire.

The sound of the heavy machine gun felt much more powerful than Zheng's gun, and of course its power too. The corpses were falling like flies, the mummies couldn't close in on them too. Jie gave off the feeling that he was on fire. He held onto the machine gun with one arm and the bullets with the other. He kept shouting as he ran forward.

"He's feeling sad... The person that carried the bullets for him last time had died."  Zheng sighed then looked at the man in black who was carrying Tengyi's body. Everyone knew the rational thing to do was leave his body in the clock tower but they didn't have the heart to just leave it there. So everyone decided to find a place to bury him. According to the man in black, this was also how a warrior could obtain peace.

Fortunately it seemed like Imhotep's curse had no effect on them. Tengyi's body remained in eternal sleep... Yet Zheng couldn't forget the scene of his death, and those last words of his...

It didn't take long for the heavy machine gun to consume all its bullets, but that was enough to kill all the mummies. Only around a thousand corpses were still walking toward them. Everyone fired their guns without holding back. For a while, the sound of gunshots filled the air. They cleared a path through the corpses and moved through the street to the garage.

Jonathan began running to the sports cars as soon as they entered the garage but Zheng and O'Connell held out their arms simultaneously and carried him to a mini bus. He yelled in resistance. "Hey, sports cars! Sports cars run faster and also more expensive!"

Zheng replied. "I will give you five gold bars after we survive. Enough for you to buy one!"

Jonathan paused for a moment then immediately said. "Five... six, six is a lucky number."

Zheng and O'Connell looked at each other then threw Jonathan into the bus. O'Connell began to look for the key after they all got on but Zheng punched the keyhole, then pulled out the wires and twirled them together. The bus immediately started up.

O'Connell laughed. "You're too violent."

Zheng shrugged. "You will be more violent when you drive... Lets go, our buddies are here."

The entrance to the garage was filled with corpses just as he said. Furthermore, several dozen mummy guards were coming straight at them from the wall behind them. O'Connell drove the bus right into the corpses, shattering blood and flesh all over the place...
