The Last Apostle

Chapter 93: Scepter of Anubis

That day, Du Yuqi was eating in the cafeteria again. While eating, he looked up at the TV in the cafeteria. Suddenly, he had an idea and saw the news anchor on the TV start playing the screen. At the same time, a voice-over came from the side:

"The special exhibition of cultural relics of Country E was held in this city. A total of 87 precious cultural relics of Country E were exhibited in the exhibition, and 11 of them were open to the public for the first time..."

After seeing this report, Du Yuqi was now rich. He called the Taekwondo Hall and said he would not go. He called a car and went straight to the Municipal Exhibition Hall. The Taekwondo Hall had difficulty recruiting people, so they could only stare and endure Du Yuqi's casual absence from work.

After arriving at the Municipal Exhibition Hall, Du Yuqi stared at one of the exhibits without hesitation! This exhibit was a scepter. The head of the scepter was made into a dog head, and it was wrapped with yellow and black stripes. The dog head was also inlaid with two dark black gems. It looked both majestic and had an indescribable exotic style.

However, Du Yuqi felt very strange at this time. He was clearly looking at the scepter and was extremely eager to get it, but he could not sense its existence after closing his eyes, as if there was nothing in front of him.

Du Yuqi also felt very strange about this feeling, until he carefully read the instructions next to it and suddenly realized:

"Exhibit: Scepter of Anubis, the god of death." (Imitation)

When he saw the word "imitation", Du Yuqi seemed to have a row of crows flying over his head, and he began to curse in his heart. He stared at the imitation silently for a while, and could feel an indescribable desire rushing wildly in his heart, then he nodded slightly and walked out.

Next, Du Yuqi went online to investigate the details of this treasure and found that it was a national treasure, similar to the peerless collection of China's "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". No wonder it would use a fake to fool people.

This treasure was discovered in a tomb in the desert two years ago. The expedition team that discovered it all died, so this treasure seemed to be covered with a mysterious and terrifying veil and was treasured in the museum of Nile, the capital of E country.

"Nile?"

Du Yuqi pondered for a while. The political situation in E country was very chaotic. Not long ago, it was invaded by foreign forces because of oil. The whole country was seriously injured and divided into several major forces to fight. It has only improved in recent years, but it is still a group of scattered sand. The government is actually only the largest force. It is very similar to the situation during the Xinhai Revolution in China. Therefore, various riots and terrorist attacks often occur. If you want to go, you have to be very careful.

But soon, the arrogance in Du Yuqi's heart rose again. Holding a sword in hand, is there any fetter that you can't break in the world?

So he searched online and made a call:

"Hello, travel agency? Are there any free tours to Country E... price is not a problem."

***

Two days later, Du Yuqi was already standing in the terminal of Nile International Airport, the capital of Country E. Du Yuqi stretched his muscles as hard as he could. The fifteen-hour flight really made his back ache.

He had thought carefully about coming to Country E. On the one hand, he was attracted by the scepter, and on the other hand, he felt that he couldn't do anything in school all day, so he just came out to relax.

It happened that Du Yuqi was taken to RB by his mother last year. The passport and other things were available. As for the visa, it was just a matter of extra money to let the travel agency handle it expedited.

At this time, as soon as the plane landed, Du Yuqi immediately felt that there seemed to be something in the distance. You know, Nile International Airport is fifteen kilometers away from the city!

If we make a horizontal comparison,

then the "candle shadow axe sound" porcelain fragments that Du Yuqi encountered last time had to be within several hundred meters of it to be sensed. This shows the importance of this scepter, and it is worth Du Yuqi's long journey.

Of course, we have to admit that the last time he stood in front of Zhou Yang and dodged bullets from the black muzzle of the gun gave Du Yuqi great confidence. After all, it was almost impossible for Du Yuqi to get this scepter through legal means.

Originally, the travel agency here did not open free travel to Country E, but under Du Yuqi's conversation style of raising the price, he still met his request. At this time, the tour guide took Du Yuqi to the Fairmont Hotel where he was staying, handled the five-day check-in procedures for him, and handed over the return ticket, and the two parties had a deal.

However, the tour guide still had some professional ethics and reminded Du Yuqi:

"The E government has recently stipulated that tourists entering the country must carry more than 2,000 US dollars in cash, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter. Therefore, the number of crimes against foreigners has increased by 400% recently. If it is not necessary, try not to go to places with few people. It is best to return to the hotel after 5 pm."

Du Yuqi nodded, but ignored it. In his heart, he was quite glad that the public security was not good, because he was here to do bad things. The worse the public security, the tighter the police force, so if he caused any trouble, the less pressure he would face.

Also, he discovered something even more wonderful, that is, because of the scorching sun here, people often cover their faces with veils or headscarves, so that they can cover their faces openly, which makes it even more difficult to recognize his face.

***

E country has been a British colony for hundreds of years, so English is the official language, and even the currency is pounds and euros. Du Yuqi can easily have daily conversations, but after going out the next day, Du Yuqi found that this is indeed a chaotic city, which can be said to be difficult to match its status as the capital. The traffic in the city is excessively free, and traffic lights, zebra crossings, and traffic rules are invalid. The scattered and chaotic traffic order makes this already crowded city even more bloated, and almost every bus is packed with people.

At the same time, the dilapidated streets and messy houses, the crowded vehicles and the dusty ground left Du Yuqi with a very deep impression. Along the way, there are innocent children who greet you enthusiastically, but there are also vendors who stick to you like flies that can't be driven away. There are armed policemen at scenic spots and main road intersections, which gives people a feeling of extreme chaos and insecurity.
