Chapter 006 Familiar Shapes
Wang Bo has never been to Cairo, Egypt; he has not even visited modern Cairo, let alone Cairo in 1926. Therefore, Wang Bo is quite certain that he is lost
However, it is now around 3 a.m., and the entire Cairo is enveloped in silence; there are no people on the streets, not even a ghost.
Even the presence of an additional ghost is not an impossible occurrence
The young lady, seeing Wang Bo's prompt response, hesitated for a moment and then revealed her name, "Laura, my name is Laura Crowford"
He has no idea where he actually is
He looked around and did not sense any eerie atmosphere, nor did he see any translucent ghosts, which made him feel a sense of relief in his heart
Just as Wang Bo was about to sigh, a faint sigh suddenly reached his ears
When he turned back and could no longer see the shadows of the prison and the pursuers, he finally let out a sigh of relief
A day later, he could only gaze at the starry sky in Cairo in 1926
This world is home to mummies that have been tormented for thousands of years, the Scorpion King who sold his soul to the god of the underworld Anubis, a cursed dragon emperor, and a witch who has lived for over a thousand years without dying
Therefore, Wang Bo now has two options
After all, the other party's attire is exceedingly familiar, and it is highly likely that they are the new version of Lara Croft from Tomb Raider 9
However, this raises a question: he neither knows where the Port of Giza is located nor where the museum is situated
The exact time when jeans appeared is not very clear to Wang Bo, but he is certain it was not in 1926
The gap between the previous and the subsequent is indeed quite significant
Unless Wang Bo directly invades someone else's residence, it is simply impossible to find pedestrians on the road at this point in time
Where is this? In what place is he?
However, for Wang Bo, who enjoys a simple life, it is not fun at all
More than a month ago, he was just an ordinary person
He has not forgotten; this is the world of mummies
In just over a month, he became Superman
The second option is to go to the museum to find Evelyn
Sigh...
Before inquiring about a lady's name, you should first introduce your own name, as this is the etiquette of a gentleman. The young lady, half wet and half dry, maintained the vigilance expected of a woman.
If there are no surprises, that sigh just now was emitted by this person
Although he has gradually become superhuman in terms of strength, with brute force exceeding 2 tons, this may not be effective against ghosts. Perhaps even a small ghost could take his life.
This is quite exaggerated; if Wang Bo remembers correctly, there should not have been jeans in 1926
Fearing that the prison guards would catch up behind him, Wang Bo shot himself dead. Therefore, he ran for more than half an hour, leaving the prison far behind before he dared to stop.
He simply does not want to take any risks; he just wants to go home
I have no clue at all, what a hassle
If Wang Bo remembers correctly, Evelyn should be working at the museum in Cairo, and early tomorrow morning, they will head to the Giza Port Club, then cross the Nile River, traverse the desert, ... and ultimately find the legendary City of the Dead ...! ... Hamunaptra!
Who?! Wang Bo instinctively let out a low exclamation, his gaze sweeping around in all directions. He did not discover anyone, and for a moment, he could not help but feel a chill run down his spine
Cairo in 1926 would fall into a profound silence every night, starkly contrasting with the bustling metropolis it would become in the future
This is not scientific
Perhaps New York can be considered one, but this does not include Cairo
Fortunately, Wang Bo knew how to find O'Connor or Evelyn
A day ago, he was still lying in his cozy bed, sleeping
After Wang Bo escaped from prison with superhuman strength, he did not stop.
Wang Bo answered almost without any hesitation: "My name is Wang Bo. What about you?"
Is there no one? Could it be a ghost
Fortunately, Wang Bo has a mouth to ask for directions
After a few seconds of hesitation, Wang Bo asked, "May I ask, what is your name?"
Who could have imagined that fate is so wondrous
Although the young lady is of European and American descent, her face possesses an Eastern charm, with brown pupils and distinctive M-shaped lips, evoking an increasingly familiar feeling the more one looks at her
However, Wang Bo did not relax; instead, he perked up his ears and listened carefully to the sounds around him
What surprised Wang Bo even more was the other party's attire: a gray tank top and jeans
Without a word, you just threw yourself into Cairo in 1926, and it is the Cairo of the world of mummies. Is it fun?
Gazing at the myriad stars in the sky, Wang Bo sighed once again
Wang Bo : ... ...
After much hesitation, Wang Bo ultimately decided against invading someone else's residence. He wandered around the streets of Cairo for a while and found a place resembling a square, where he sat down
He rubbed his eyes, and this time he could see clearly that it was indeed a tank top and jeans
However, at this moment, Wang Bo encountered a new problem
What made Wang Bo feel even more incredulous was the appearance of the young lady. For Wang Bo, this look was so familiar that he could hardly be certain, fearing that he might be seeing things.
The person realized that they had been discovered and did not flee; instead, they proactively stepped out from the shadows, saying as they walked, "I am not a bad person; I am merely a lost individual."
Listening to the voice, it is still a woman
Wang Bo could not help but widen his eyes
"I see you, who are you? Come out quickly." Wang Bo was indeed not lying; he had seen a writhing figure in that place, but could not see it clearly, only able to discern a silhouette
Meanwhile, a faint sound of breathing emanated from another entrance of the square
Wang Bo turned his head and locked onto the other party
However, Wang Bo saw a young lady wearing a tank top and jeans in Cairo, Egypt, in 1926
Perhaps if it were someone else, they would find it very amusing and adventurous
Who exactly played such a big joke on him, was it God, or a deity, or perhaps aliens? Regardless of who it was that caused such an event, it would be nice if they at least acknowledged it to him.
Wang Bo slapped his forehead and couldn't help but say: "Indeed, it is you, Miss Laura Croft"
Moreover, even in a developed future, there are not many cities that can be referred to as a city that never sleeps
The first method is to go to the port of Giza and wait for two individuals to appear
However, it is unfortunate that Wang Bo cannot return, or rather, he has no idea how to go back.
Under the starlight, he saw a young lady with a single ponytail, her body half wet and half dry, walking out from the shadows. Her gaze was tinged with a hint of nervousness, resembling a startled rabbit
