21st Century Necromancer

"He is not using Ancient Egyptian!" As the ceremony unfolded, Chen Yu's liturgy in a mysterious language elicited a surprised expression from Professor Smith.

Although Professor Smith didn't know how to speak Ancient Egyptian, he could judge the accent of the Ancient Egyptian language. The language Chen Yu used was clearly not Ancient Egyptian.

"Will this affect the ceremony's effectiveness?" Major General Claire couldn't help but furrow her brow. Though she couldn't interfere with Chen Yu's actions, she wanted to know how it might impact the ceremony.

Hearing Major General Claire's question, Professor Smith felt awkward and explained with some distress: "I don't know what language Lord Chen Yu is using. The ceremony should have been conducted in Ancient Egyptian, but the language he is using now is obviously not. As for what impact it might have on the ceremony...

To be honest, I'm not an occultist, just an archeologist. If the language used in such a mysterious ceremony changes, I'm afraid Lord Chen Yu understands more than I do."

Professor Smith's answer undoubtedly made Major General Claire furrow her brow further, but since she didn't understand the matters of the occult herself, she could only worry and let Chen Yu continue to preside over the ceremony without interrupting him.

After all, in terms of the occult, Chen Yu knew much more than she did, and trusting him was Major General Claire's only choice now.

Chen Yu certainly did not let Major General Claire down. As the ceremony proceeded, the liturgy he recited resonated with the Divine Power of Osiris within the temple.

Watching the ancient Egyptian text engraved on the temple walls gradually light up as Osiris' ancient power responded to Chen Yu's call, both Major General Claire and Professor Smith's faces transformed from worry to surprise and ecstatic joy.

"This... this really worked! What language is this? Why can it replace Ancient Egyptian?" As an archeologist, Professor Smith was more concerned with the mysterious ceremony than its effectiveness and was intrigued by what language Chen Yu was using. "Could it be a unknown ancient Egyptian language unknown to academia? Or is it the legendary priestly language? This is simply amazing!"

Compared to Professor Smith's excitement, Major General Claire seemingly paid little attention to such details, only caring whether the ceremony proceeded smoothly and if it could reveal the path to the Garden of Osiris.

The emotions of Major General Claire and Professor Smith were evidently within Chen Yu's perception. The ceremony wasn't complicated, the key being how to resonate Osiris' Divine Power with the ceremony's conductor.

When Chen Yu used Divine Power to chant the Necromantic Holy Words, the Death Attribute God's power of the Underworld King naturally responded to the same attributed Necromantic Holy Words' summoning.

As Osiris' Divine Power responded to Chen Yu's call, the ancient Egyptian text engraved in the temple also lit up. As the radiant light circulated, it seemed as if countless sounds echoed within this temple.

"This is genuine Ancient Egyptian! It's the sound of the priests of Osiris praying in the Ancient Egyptian era!" Hearing these resonant sounds, Professor Smith was caught in a feverish excitement, quickly taking out his phone to record the sounds: "This is the real Book of the Dead! It's the spells Egyptians prayed with to the god Osiris! My God! I've never heard the Book of the Dead read aloud in Ancient Egyptian! This is undoubtedly the most astonishing archaeological discovery of this century!"

I come before you, bringing justice, banishing deception for you.

I have not wronged people.

I have not abused livestock.

I have not committed sinfulness in sacred places.

I have not known things that should not be known.

I have not seen wickedness..."

Professor Smith fervently chanted the spells alongside the voices resonating within the temple. Even though he couldn't understand Ancient Egyptian, a lifetime of researching Ancient Egypt and Osiris enabled him to understand the content of the echoing voices, making him thrilled to join in the recitation.

While Professor Smith was immersed in fervor, Major General Claire couldn't help but feel tense. The doscil power surging in the temple gave her immense pressure, making her worry whether Chen Yu could truly complete the ceremony and find the path to the Garden of Osiris.

However, this worry was evidently unnecessary, as Osiris' Divine Power surged, the water within the channels surrounding the temple also began to flow and gradually spread across the temple floor.

The water flowed across the temple's floor, progressively forming an intriguingly strange map.

Upon seeing the map appear, Major General Claire hurriedly instructed the people waiting nearby to photograph the map.

After the map was formed, Chen Yu's chanting came to a conclusion, and Osiris' Divine Power quieted down once more.

Finishing the ceremony, Chen Yu stood before the water-formed map on the ground and removed the accessories belonging to the Ancient Egyptian priests, asking Professor Smith nearby: "Professor, can you discern what place this map depicts?"

"Although it's somewhat different from current maps, I can basically confirm this is the Nile River," Professor Smith's face still bore lingering excitement, but he remembered the reason he had been called and soon identified the map's subject.

"Is this the Nile River? Quickly bring up the satellite map of the Nile River; I want to confirm what location this is along the Nile." Major General Claire appeared somewhat impatient, hurriedly instructing nearby personnel to perform satellite map comparisons.

Compared to slowly researching materials and deducing locations, she preferred utilizing modern equipment to achieve her objectives directly.

Yet, Professor Smith unexpectedly interrupted: "If you're going to compare, remember to use maps from before 1960. The current Nile River's course is post-Aswan Dam construction, differing slightly from the original Nile River course."

Hearing Professor Smith's comment, Major General Claire promptly altered her instructions.

However, just as the person beside them prepared to find the maps according to orders, Chen Yu suddenly spoke: "No need to bother with that; the location is nearby. In Ancient Egyptian times, after the deceased underwent the ceremony here, their bodies, already turned into mummies, would be transported to nearby channels and placed on solar boats, ascending the Nile River to enter the Garden of Osiris."

"The Garden of Osiris is upstream of the Nile River? So this map...?" Major General Claire showed a surprised expression on her face.

"This map is the key to opening the entrance to the Garden of Osiris. If we don't enter the Garden of Osiris before the water dries up here, the entrance that had been opened will be shut again." Chen Yu looked at the map formed by the clear water on the ground and elaborated.
