At night, in the base camp of the Holy Egyptian Alliance.
Thousands of linen tents were arranged neatly, with bronze oil lamps hanging in front of each tent.
The flame in the oil lamp swayed gently in the wind.
At the edge of the camp, the giant elephant stood there quietly.
Their huge figures stretch their shadows very long.
The elephant trainer dozed off against the elephant's legs, holding a water bag in his hand.
They didn't dare let their water bags touch the ground. Even when they were sleeping, they had to hold the water bags in their arms or in their hands.
Because they have seen what those monsters look like with their own eyes, and they don’t want to become like that.
The kind that looks like neither human nor ghost.
"It's time to switch shifts, Amazon warriors."
Several warriors of Holy Egypt came to several female warriors who were adjusting their armor.
They rubbed their eyes from time to time, obviously having just woken up.
"Okay, we'll go right away."
The lights here are connected together, and occasionally people can be heard talking.
In this polluted land, it seems that only this place still has life.
As for other places, they were completely shrouded in darkness.
Although there was a full moon in the sky, it seemed that even the moon's light could not dispel the darkness.
Only firelight can do that.
So, when Lin Ke was in the camp and looked into the distance, he could only see pitch black darkness.
Even the color of the night sky is not as pure black as the surrounding jungle.
It seems that after the pollution, even the light will be swallowed up by the polluted land.
It was already late at night, and the leaders of the Holy Egyptian Alliance had already gone to bed.
But Lin Ke, because he possessed the "holy object" bestowed by the supreme god Osiris, did not need sleep at all.
Logically speaking, this is definitely a blessing. After all, it means that Lin Ke doesn't need sleep to repair his body.
But looking at the sleeping soldiers, Lin Ke felt that this might not be called a "gift".
After all, that means he can "work" forever without any time to rest.
Of course, Lin Ke did not feel frustrated or angry because the "holy object" was repairing his body every moment.
He is in the best physical condition at all times.
That makes his thinking sharp, his mind clear, and he doesn't feel any negative emotions.
Not only that, Lin Ke didn't dare to take off the green bandage and put it somewhere else.
He can only wear it on his body. Only in this way can Lin Ke ensure the safety of the "holy object".
And your own safety.
It represents not only divine power, but also the ability to summon Osiris, the god of the underworld.
At this time, Lin Ke came to an open area on the edge of the camp, from where he could slightly overlook the city of Hebron.
The so-called slight overlooking means looking from a distance at a terrain almost at the same height as the city wall.
From here, you can't see the city.
But Lin Ke could clearly see that there was no light around the city of Hebron or above the city of Hebron.
Even under the light of the full moon, such a large city almost blended into the surrounding darkness.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ke became even more certain that the city of Hebron must have been polluted.
There are no living people inside.
Earlier in the day, when at the city wall of Hebron, Lin Ke saw the situation inside Hebron through the civilization panel.
There is no living "unit" anymore.
Not only that, Lin Ke also noticed a very strange phenomenon.
That was a phenomenon he had never seen before, either in the civilization panel or in real life.
While he was talking to Nan Tong, he clearly saw a "hostile unit" moving towards their location.
Or, to be more precise, it was more like the "hostile unit" got as close to Lin Ke as possible in the city.
However, the "hostile unit" appeared and disappeared in the civilization panel.
But Lin Ke did not tell Nan Tong the news directly. Instead, he only told him based on the "hypothetical principle" and asked him to prepare for the worst.
Because that’s what Lin Ke felt.
In his opinion, the "hostile unit" that appeared and disappeared was most likely related to creatures such as "devil".
Very special units such as gods and demons are usually not displayed in the civilization panel.
And since that "unit" can be shown in the civilization panel, it means that he may be between "demon" and "human".
This also fits with the time when the city of Hebron was polluted, and can explain why all the people in the city disappeared.
Lin Ke guessed that all this might be related to that "hostile unit".
Therefore, his top priority was to first find out the situation in the city of Hebron, and then find a way to deal with the "hostile unit" as soon as possible.
Otherwise, things may become more difficult.
But......
How to find out?
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh~"
"It's so late, you haven't rested yet?"
"Your spirit is getting better and better~"
The succubus came behind Lin Ke at this time, and seeing that there was only a man in a black robe in the distance, she made a playful and naughty sound.
"It's been a long time since I talked to you like this~"
"Are you worried about the city of Hebron?"
The succubus followed Lin Ke's gaze and saw the city in the distance at a glance.
"Yes, the city of Hebron is now full of doubts, and we know very little about the situation in the city."
"By the way, with your ability, can you sense any abnormality in Hebron?"
Hearing Lin Ke's words, the succubus just shook her head slightly.
"I can't feel anything."
But Lin Ke just thought about it for a moment and continued to ask.
"If the opponent's power is greater than yours, you will be able to sense that power. I know you can do this."
"However, if a demon wanted to know the extent of your power, do you have a way to counter it?"
After hearing what Lin Ke said, the succubus just shook its tail gently a few times.
She thought about it for a long time.
"Of course there are ways to counter it, but it won't last too long."
"Just like the ritual magic of the Fortress City, it can reduce or completely isolate our perception of the city, causing us to misjudge the situation in the city."
"But for demons like us, we may have to replenish our strength through rituals every two days."
"This method consumes too much energy, and we demons don't like it."
"We prefer to win quickly and enjoy the fight."
The succubus said this while looking at Lin Ke.
Her eyes seemed to be turning into hearts again.
"Just like when I was with you."
"Holy Pharaoh, Your Majesty~"
