This was the second time the Third Elder stood next to the Staff of Anubis.
The last time, he encountered robbers wreaking havoc in the exhibition hall. He wanted to take advantage of the situation and steal the Staff of Anubis, but he didn't expect the robbers to trigger the Nine Swords Diagram, which detonated the flying swords and caused the Third Elder to be injured by the flying swords.
This time it's still for the Staff of Anubis.
In order to get the most money, Tom decided to auction the staff to make the biggest profit.
The surging spatial energy could be felt even through the protective glass, and the Third Elder revealed a greedy look.
In Egyptian mythology, Anubis is a guiding deity of hell, responsible for guiding lost souls to the underworld. Legend has it that his staff is full of spatial energy, which can lead people into the terrifying and mysterious underworld and gain supreme magic power.
The four members of the Council of Pharaohs had agreed to scout the area first, and if all went well they would steal it, and if not they would take it to an auction, as they were determined to get the Staff of Anubis.
The third elder pretended to walk around the display case, looking at the introduction label and chatting with a visitor next to him.
"This stick was originally called the Staff of Anubis, and it looks pretty ordinary."
The visitor shook his head and walked away respectfully: "Yes, it is marked with a value of 10 million. It is the staff used by the first pharaoh of ancient Egypt. I don't know if it is real or not."
The third elder was secretly surprised. This was true. The introduction was not exaggerated and was completely true.
He quietly called the Second Elder, suppressing his inner surprise: "Nothing has changed. I feel it is safe. We can do it again tonight."
"Okay, let's do it together tonight."
The third elder hung up the phone. They had already agreed to come together to grab the Anubis Staff tonight. As soon as he hung up the phone, he saw a group of security guards surrounding Tom and walking over, followed by Allen Chu.
Tom was in low spirits, with fear still in his eyes. His forehead was wrapped in a bandage, the white bandage still oozing with blood, and he looked like a rooster that had been defeated in a fight.
Chu Wenzhe saw Tom smiling and came towards him, and was surprised by the injury on his forehead. He looked energetic when they parted after drinking last night, so how could he be injured after not seeing each other for just one night
"Mr. Tom, long time no see."
Last night, he was kidnapped by the fourth and fifth elders of the Pharaoh's Council. Fortunately, Ye Feng noticed that someone had teleported to the Moon Hotel and took action in time to rescue Tom. However, Tom was hit by the flying stones when the fifth elder smashed the wall, and his head was bleeding.
Although they were only superficial injuries, he was mentally tortured even more by the wizard of the Pharaoh's Council who came to his door. He was so scared that he dared not sleep all night. As soon as he closed his eyes, the masked wizard of the Pharaoh's Council came to take his life like a ghost.
Tom rolled his eyes at Chu Wenzhe unhappily: "It's better not to meet."
Chu Wenzhe glanced at Chu Zixiong behind Tom. He got the news from Chu Zixiong and said comfortingly, "I heard that Mr. Duanmu was attacked last night? Who is so bold as to attack our Mr. Tom?"
"I was attacked early this morning. Oh, let's not talk about it. I can't participate in your jewelry exhibition in this world. Others charge money for exhibitions, but your exhibition costs lives. I have to take my staff back to the United States."
"Mr. Tom, you want to show off? That's not good."
"Don't worry, I won't pay you less than you should."
Chu Wenzhe wanted to keep Tom, but Chu Zixiong kept winking at his uncle and led him to the side.
"Zixiong, what do you mean
"Uncle, let's not get involved in this matter. You know who attacked him."
"who?"
"The Pharaoh is a wizard. The staff he exhibited is said to be an ominous object. Whoever gets it will die suddenly. His grandfather died inexplicably just one month after getting the staff. I'm afraid the robbery we suffered this time is related to this staff."
Chu Wenzhe looked unconvinced, but seeing that his nephew was speaking in a serious tone, he hesitated a little.
In this area, anyone who hears the three words "Pharaoh" will be terrified. They are synonymous with supernatural power and can kill people without being seen. A single curse can kill an entire village.
He nodded: "I understand. I wish Mr. Tom a safe journey."
Security captain Carl turned off the security system of the display case, took out the Staff of Anubis from the display case, and put it in a long transparent fiberglass box.
Tom planned to leave with the Staff of Anubis right now. He didn't dare to stay here any longer. He couldn't sleep or eat well in the early hours of the morning. He was really afraid that the wizard would appear again without anyone noticing.
The third elder who had been monitoring nearby was extremely anxious. He had finally found out the whereabouts of the Staff of Anubis, but it was already at his doorstep. If it was brought back to the United States, it would be extremely difficult to find the staff again.
You can't let the duck in your mouth fly away.
He quickly called the second elder and said, "Oh no, second brother, that Tom is going to take the staff back to the United States."
The second elder was anxious at the time: "We can't let him take it away. Even if it means risking exposure, we must get the staff. I'll go right over."
The second elder, the fourth elder, and the fifth elder gathered around the crystal ball and chanted a spell together. The crystal ball spun violently, releasing a large amount of black mist and forming a portal.
The three wizards put on their masks, rushed out of the portal together, and instantly arrived at the Zhuding exhibition hall.
When a cloud of black fog suddenly appeared in the exhibition hall and three wizards in robes and bronze masks walked out from it, the exhibition hall became chaotic, as if a bomb had been dropped.
Many people screamed and rushed to the door.
"It's the wizards. They're coming."
"Run quickly, don't let them curse you."
Two people were so panicked that they bumped into the arms of the second elder. The second elder raised his hand lightly, and the two people were thrown out like stones, hitting the glass of the display case and triggering the alarm.
The exhibition hall was suddenly filled with shrill alarms, screams from the crowd, guests pushing and stomping on each other, crying, and the shouting of security guards, turning the exhibition hall that had been thriving just a moment ago into a living hell.
Although Carl was afraid of the mysterious Pharaoh wizard, he still had to fulfill his duty. He decisively took out his pistol and pointed it at the second elder and the others: "Don't move, don't mess around."
When the Pharaoh's wizard appeared, Tom was so scared that his legs went limp and he fell to the ground holding the Staff of Anubis. The wound that had just healed was once again covered in blood, staining the bandage on his head red.
His bodyguards drew their guns, formed a circle, and protected Tom in the middle.
The second elder kept waving his hands like he was doing square dance. The bodyguards around Tom were thrown into the air one by one, and then fell down heavily. They were dizzy, with bloody heads, and they couldn't even find their guns.
For a while, screams were heard one after another in the exhibition hall.
