Chapter 032: First Stop

Wang Bo had too many good things in his hands; any one of them could satisfy Anubis. After careful consideration, Wang Bo took out a replica of the Arkham Stone and offered it as a sacrifice.

This thing was a gem from Middle-earth, unique in the world. Anyone who saw it would want to possess it. Although it was useless, using it as a decoration for a deity would not lower the god's prestige.

So Wang Bo took it out; it was more than enough as a sacrifice.

When Evelyn saw the Arkham Stone, her heart nearly melted. She even hated to use it as a sacrifice because it was so beautiful.

"I believe no woman in the world can ignore it," Evelyn said, holding the Arkham Stone with great affection. "You can use it to open any woman's heart."

Wang Bo smiled dismissively. Although the Arkham Stone was beautiful and dazzling, using it to open any woman's heart in the world was clearly unrealistic.

After all, there would always be some extraordinary women who could ignore the charm of the Arkham Stone.

Of course, Wang Bo believed it could at least open ninety percent of women's hearts.

That was beyond doubt.

Under Wang Bo's persuasion, Evelyn finally used the Arkham Stone as the sacrifice to summon the Scorpion King.

In a sealed room.

Wang Bo stood in a corner, Evelyn stood at the edge of a mysterious pattern, and the Arkham Stone was placed at the center of the pattern. She began to chant the incantation of sacrifice and summoning.

Ancient syllables emerged one by one from Evelyn's mouth. A chilling wind stirred in the sealed room, and the mysterious pattern emitted a faint glow.

After a few seconds, the ground seemed to soften, like a swamp, slowly swallowing the Arkham Stone.

Then, Evelyn began to summon the soul of the Scorpion King.

Perhaps the Arkham Stone pleased Anubis; a man slowly emerged from the ground. It was the Scorpion King, whom Wang Bo had just killed earlier.

The Scorpion King was still in a soul state. Seeing Wang Bo and Evelyn, he was somewhat surprised. He probably never expected that the ones summoning him would be the ones who killed him.

Evelyn stepped back and gave Wang Bo a look, signaling that he could begin.

Wang Bo nodded, stepped forward without ceremony, and said, "I had Evelyn summon you because I want to ask you a few questions."

The Scorpion King said with a strange expression, "You can ask, but I don't guarantee I'll answer."

If he had known that the summoner was Wang Bo, he might not have come.

Of course, he also knew that even if he objected, it would be useless because Anubis had already agreed, and he could not defy Anubis's command.

Wang Bo said, "How old were you when you attacked Thebes?"

The Scorpion King was taken aback, not expecting Wang Bo to be interested in his age. He thought for a moment and said, "I can answer that question. At that time, I had lived forty years."

"Then let me ask you, how old were you when you met Milo, and where did you meet him?"

The Scorpion King did not expect Wang Bo's questions to be increasingly whimsical, but these were not secrets. The Scorpion King did not refuse. "I met Master Milo when I was thirty years old, at a nomadic tribe."

Wang Bo nodded with satisfaction and then asked a few more questions, such as where the nomadic tribe was, what the tribe's name was, and how Milo became his master after they met.

The Scorpion King answered some questions, but refused to answer others.

Nevertheless, Wang Bo still obtained many clues.

Half an hour later, Wang Bo ended the inquiry. Evelyn acted to send the Scorpion King's soul back to the underworld.

Before leaving, the Scorpion King said to Wang Bo, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course."

"Why are you so interested in Master Milo?"

"Because I want to find her."

"You are thousands of years too late."

"For me, time is not an issue." Wang Bo smiled slightly, ending the conversation. The Scorpion King left with a heart full of doubt.

After sending off the Scorpion King, Evelyn couldn't help asking, "Can you really go back to the Scorpion King's era? That's five thousand years ago."

"Yes, I'm sure." With the Moonlight Box in hand, going back five thousand years was truly no problem for Wang Bo.

Evelyn said excitedly, "Can you take me with you? I also want to see five thousand years ago and witness the rise of the Scorpion King firsthand."

Wang Bo said helplessly, "Sorry, I can only go back alone."

This was, of course, a lie. Wang Bo could put Evelyn into the Time Villa and bring her to five thousand years ago, but the problem was that Wang Bo did not want to stay in that era for too long.

He planned to return to the Scorpion King's era, immediately find Milo, then send Milo back to the Saint Seiya world, and then return immediately. The whole trip should not exceed a week.

So he simply had no extra time to witness the rise of the Scorpion King.

If he brought Evelyn along, given her personality, she would definitely follow the Scorpion King and witness his adventures and rise.

Therefore, Wang Bo decisively refused Evelyn.

Evelyn did not know Wang Bo's thoughts; she thought Wang Bo could only go back alone, so she had no choice but to nod.

Before leaving, Wang Bo invited Evelyn, Jonathan, O'Connell, and others to a dinner party he hosted.

This dinner was to celebrate their victory over the Scorpion King and saving the world.

Although in this battle, apart from Wang Bo, most of them were just bystanders.

But no one minded.

After the dinner, Wang Bo saw everyone off. Standing under the moonlight, he took out the Moonlight Box and began his time-travel journey.

"Bodhi Paramita!"

The next second, the Moonlight Box released a powerful force, carrying Wang Bo through time and space, disappearing from the spot.

However, Wang Bo did not go to the Scorpion King's era immediately.

His first stop was the Qin Dynasty, when the Dragon Emperor unified the world and built the Great Wall.

Wang Bo returned to this era not to help the Dragon Emperor fight against the curse of the witch Zi Yuan, because the Dragon Emperor did not need Wang Bo's help at all.

Wang Bo returned to this era for the magical book.

The Dragon Emperor unified the world, built the Great Wall, standardized writing, surpassing the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in merit and virtue, but like ordinary people, he grew old day by day, approaching death step by step.

So he became afraid and ordered the people of the world to search for the elixir of immortality.

Then, his men found a Taoist nun.
