~8 min read 1,569 words

Wu Xian said this, and before the Zhongzhou Team members could react, he described the battle process he had just experienced in detail.

Of course, he definitely had to add some embellishments, mainly to raise the status of the enemies on the opposite side, claiming he had used all his strength to barely repel them, which immediately brought considerable pressure to everyone.

Except for Chu Xuan and Zhan Lan.

The former didn't know what pressure was, while the latter had a "map hack" and had watched the entire battle just now. She knew very well what Wu Xian's "barely repelling the opponent" meant and couldn't help but complain in her heart.

However, she didn't expose him. Clearly, she understood her man's intentions. While finding it funny, she secretly chatted with Zhao Yingkong, telling the assassin girl the truth so she wouldn't worry too much.

On the other side, when Wu Xian mentioned the names Whitebeard and Aizen among the enemies, Zheng Zha, Li Xiaoyi, and Cheng Xiao—these young people—couldn't help but show expressions of astonishment, seemingly never having expected that these two classic anime characters would appear in the reincarnation world.

There was no help for it; the era they were in now was exactly when the "Big Three" shonen manga were most popular. Especially for young people, even if they hadn't watched these three anime, they had at least heard the names of the characters in them.

By the way, Uchiha Madara had not yet appeared in the manga at this time, so most of the Zhongzhou Team did not know of his existence, only guessing that he had some connection with the second male lead, Uchiha Sasuke.

After all, the reincarnation worlds sent by the Main God were basically based on horror movie plots. In the Zhongzhou Team, except for Chu Xuan, no one would be idle enough to watch anime.

"Captain, are you sure they are real anime characters, and not disguised by the East Sea Team's reincarnators using their abilities?"

Zheng Zha still asked with some disbelief.

"Of course, I can still distinguish that much."

Wu Xian didn't reveal the information about the chat group, turning instead to say: "However, this isn't actually strange. Reincarnation teams can indeed recruit NPC members in horror movie worlds, it's just a bit troublesome.

For example, Imhotep in this world—if you have any ideas, after completing the mission and returning to the Main God Space, you can exchange for a reincarnator watch and a team entry contract from the Main God to invite him to become an external member of the Zhongzhou Team."

"Invite Imhotep?"

Zheng Zha was slightly stunned, and then the image of the mummy from the movie appeared in his mind. He couldn't help but laugh dryly: "Stop joking, Captain. Imhotep is a villain; how can our Zhongzhou Team recruit such a member?"

"That's a funny thing to say. Our mission this time is to help him resurrect Anck-su-namun; does that make us villains?"

"Ah, this..."

Zheng Zha was speechless, always feeling that Wu Xian was being sophistical, yet unable to refute, which was very frustrating.

"Let's put the matter of recruiting reincarnation members aside for now; the top priority is the upcoming team battle."

At this time, Chu Xuan, who hadn't said much since descending into the "The Mummy 1" world, suddenly spoke: "According to Wu Xian's statement, if those anime characters are the real deal, then according to the settings in the anime, they all have at least Fourth Stage initial combat power.

What's worse is that Wu Xian can no longer easily join the battle now. In other words, these three people alone have already posed a threat to the Zhongzhou Team, let alone the possibility that the East Sea Team has other similar existences... Everyone, be prepared; this team battle might be very difficult for us."

Once these words were spoken, everyone's expressions became extremely solemn, even a bit nervous.

"Not only that."

Wu Xian added fuel to the fire: "Among the people who fought me just now, there was also a member of the Devil Team named Zhao Zhui Kong... That's right, like Yingkong, he also comes from an assassin family. His strength is not weak, and he also has Fourth Stage level."

Everyone was slightly stunned upon hearing this and subconsciously looked at Zhao Yingkong, only to see the assassin girl's expression as usual, calm and waveless, as if she wasn't very familiar with this guy named "Zhao Zhui Kong."

The reason for this was that Zhan Lan had shown her the footage of Wu Xian's battle earlier, so she had long known of Zhao Zhui Kong's existence and thus didn't show any surprise.

Furthermore, times were different now; the sub-personality Zhao Yingkong already knew part of the truth and understood that her past memory of hating Zhao Zhui Kong was just a false lie, so naturally, she wouldn't explode at the slightest touch like in the original work.

Of course, if she really met Zhao Zhui Kong, Zhao Yingkong would still use every method to kill him—not out of personal grudge, but just to repay the "reward" of being deceived and used all these years, nothing more.

"Another Fourth Stage... The Main God Space is already this competitive now? I feel like if you don't have Fourth Stage strength, you'd be embarrassed to call yourself a reincarnator."

Zheng Zha smiled bitterly. He had thought that after a year of training in Van Helsing, he would have the confidence to replace Wu Xian and lead everyone through this team battle. Now it seemed he was still too naive.

"No help for it; after all, it's the Main God Space. If you don't find a way to improve, others will overtake you in the blink of an eye."

Wu Xian also shook his head helplessly and then said: "According to my estimation, the East Sea Team has at least six Fourth Stage combatants. With the current strength of the Zhongzhou Team, in the situation where I cannot act, winning is almost impossible. Therefore, the only way is to seek foreign aid."

"Foreign aid? Captain, are you talking about Imhotep?"

Zheng Zha had a flash of inspiration and used his brain for once.

Imhotep in the movie had quite impressive strength; he was a powerful "hexagonal" mage and also possessed an immortal body. If they could have his help, the Zhongzhou Team would effectively have an additional Fourth Stage powerhouse, and their chances of winning would increase by a point.

"I did consider him, but besides that, there is also the Devil Team..."

Wu Xian said this, remembering the content he saw in Uchiha Madara's memory, and his expression was quite strange.

"Wait? The Devil Team!"

Zheng Zha and the other Zhongzhou team members were confused. The former picked his ear and asked in disbelief: "Captain, did you get it wrong? Also, didn't you just say that the Devil Team had already cooperated with the East Sea Team?"

"When did I say the Devil Team and the East Sea Team cooperated?"

Wu Xian rolled his eyes. "I said the clone of Zhao Zhui Kong cooperated with the people of the East Sea Team, not the entire Devil Team.

In fact, they are quite miserable. As soon as they came up, their mental power user was controlled, and then they were attacked by the East Sea Team. Seeing that the situation was gone, Zhao Zhui Kong simply defected temporarily and used a team transfer contract. Now the Devil Team only has four people left, and they are not far from total annihilation."

Speaking of this, he also glanced at Zheng Zha, revealing a playful smile: "By the way, the current captain of the Devil Team is your clone, Zheng Zha. He has already broken through to the Fourth Stage and held back several powerhouses of the East Sea Team by himself. He is much stronger than your entire original self."

"What? My clone!"

Zheng Zha opened his mouth wide, his mind in a mess.

"In other words, the current situation of the Devil Team is even worse than ours. To avoid negative points and erasure, as well as for revenge, their only chance is to cooperate with us."

Chu Xuan, who was on the side, pushed his glasses, and a white light flashed on them, seemingly having already begun to conceive a new plan.

"Of course, the opposite is also possible; it just depends on whether Zheng Zha's clone is a spineless coward."

Wu Xian smiled, then sighed with feigned regret: "Alright, I won't participate in the upcoming team battle for now, so as not to fall into inner demons again, which would only bring trouble to you all...

Like this, you go to support the Devil Team first and try to form an alliance with them. As for me, I will go find Imhotep and, by the way, get my hands on the Book of the Sun and the Book of the Dead. These two are important props involving resurrection; since we have come to this world, we must not miss them."

"But Captain, didn't you say you can't easily act? What if Imhotep..."

Before Zheng Zha could finish, he saw black smoke rising around Wu Xian.

A few seconds later, a cat with pure black fur and golden eyes appeared on his shoulder.
