Chapter 011: Destination
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第011章 目的地
Wang Bo examined the golden scorpion ornament over and over, then infused a trace of magic into it.
In an instant, the golden scorpion ornament seemed to come alive, clicking and snapping onto Wang Bo's wrist while releasing a series of phantom images.
These phantoms pointed to the location of the Scorpion King... the Oasis of Amshe.
Evelyn and the others looked at the map shown by the phantoms and were overjoyed. "Great, with these directions, we can soon find the legendary Oasis of Amshe."
Evelyn decisively said, "Time waits for no one. Let's set off immediately."
"No need." Wang Bo stopped the impulsive group, took out a digital world map, and projected it into the air, forming a 3D model.
Wang Bo circled the model once, pinpointed a location, and zoomed in on the map.
Evelyn walked up to Wang Bo, looking at him curiously.
Wang Bo pointed to a place and said, "Here, this is the Oasis of Amshe."
Having seen the plot, combined with the map he had just seen and the world map, finding the Oasis of Amshe was effortless for him.
Evelyn and the others hadn't expected Wang Bo to find the legendary Oasis of Amshe from home, and they were somewhat skeptical. O'Connell said, "Are you sure it's here?"
Wang Bo casually opened a portal, on the other side of which was an oasis.
Evelyn hesitated a few times, then stepped through the portal into the oasis, immediately sensing that the oasis was filled with the power of Anubis.
This power permeated every corner of the oasis.
As a Keeper of the Dead, she knew the power of Anubis better than anyone.
Evelyn closed her eyes to sense for a moment, then suddenly heard a sound rapidly approaching, and the aura of death swept in from all directions.
Evelyn understood at once that this oasis had its own guardians.
They did not welcome her arrival.
Any living person who entered this oasis was their enemy, even her.
So Evelyn retreated, returned to the dining room, and nodded to Wang Bo. "That's enough."
Wang Bo casually closed the portal.
Jonathan asked curiously, "So that was the Oasis of Amshe?"
Evelyn nodded. "Yes, it is indeed the Oasis of Amshe. Thank you. Without you, we wouldn't have found it so easily."
"You're welcome." Wang Bo said softly. "It's the least I could do."
O'Connell asked, "Now that we've found it, when do we go in and kill the Scorpion King?"
Evelyn said, "It might take some time. The Scorpion King's resurrection is still a while away. Even if we go in now, we might not find him. So we must kill him after he resurrects."
O'Connell said, "I have no objection. With plenty of time, I can prepare some weapons."
Jonathan asked, "So how long until the Scorpion King resurrects?"
Evelyn calculated the time. "Not long, just twenty days."
O'Connell nodded. For him, twenty days was enough; he could definitely get his hands on some powerful weapons.
Jonathan said, "So for these twenty days, we don't need to do anything?"
Wang Bo smiled confidently. "Eat and drink as usual. When the time comes, come with us to see the ancient king, and watch me punch him to death. Everyone's happy."
O'Connell said helplessly, "Hearing you say that, I feel like I don't even need to prepare weapons."
Wang Bo looked at him curiously. "Why would you need weapons for a picnic? Who brings weapons to a picnic?"
Evelyn reminded him, "The Scorpion King is not weak."
Wang Bo said dismissively, "If Anubis himself came down, I might be more cautious. But a Scorpion King—how strong do you think he can be?"
Evelyn: ...
She felt this conversation couldn't go on.
Wang Bo wasn't deliberately trying to annoy Evelyn; it was just that with his current strength, he really didn't need to worry about a Scorpion King. The guy was indeed a formidable opponent for humans.
But for Wang Bo now, he was just a slightly larger ant.
If Wang Bo got serious, he could crush this ant with one finger. No matter how much importance he placed on such an opponent, he couldn't take it seriously.
Though there's a saying, "Even a lion uses its full strength when hunting a rabbit."
But don't underestimate rabbits; rabbits are not only fast but also not weak. An adorable rabbit can even kick an eagle's chest to pieces.
Thus, rabbits are truly impressive.
But in Wang Bo's eyes, the Scorpion King was not a rabbit but an ant, and Wang Bo was not a lion but a giant.
Would a giant use all its strength against an ant?
No.
Wang Bo was not the cautious type.
Over the next few days, everyone followed Wang Bo's advice, eating and drinking as usual.
Jonathan quickly sold the gem Wang Bo had given him, exchanging it for a considerable sum of pounds, and began looking for a location to set up a high-end nightclub, busy all day long.
O'Connell, along with his wife and child, took his leave and returned home.
By the way, their home was also in London, since O'Connell was British and had been a British soldier in his youth.
But he said he would come to help when the Scorpion King resurrected, and Wang Bo agreed.
As for Alex, he left with a tear-streaked face. Wang Bo could tell the little guy's butt was nearly swollen from his mother's spanking.
But he hadn't learned his lesson; before leaving, he secretly asked Wang Bo if he could come along to see the Scorpion King's resurrection.
Before he could finish, his mother Karen caught him.
Without a word, Karen grabbed him by the ear and dragged him out.
Wang Bo mourned for the little guy's future. Having such a hot-tempered mother was quite a fate.
As for Evelyn herself, she spent these days studying the Scorpion King.
But records about the Scorpion King were scarce, mostly legends, and Wang Bo couldn't say how much was true.
As for Hela, since she left Wang Bo's estate that day, she hadn't returned. Her whereabouts were uncertain, and Wang Bo didn't know where she was.
As for Wang Bo himself, he returned to Middle-earth through the World Gate.
Because it was time for him to teach Elsa and Anna.
