Infinity 237: Mission Impossible

Arnold led three team members into the tomb, leaving the injured team member and the medic outside. Originally a team of eight, two had been ambushed and killed, and another was disabled, leaving only five. The medic had no offensive power and could only wait for death.


The gate opposite the tomb slowly opened, and from the shadows, a six-legged scorpion slowly emerged. Its upper body was surprisingly human: Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Its hands had transformed into scorpion-like pincers. It was still a little confused, but its expression was extremely violent.


"Roar!" Scorpion King Mata roared furiously as he emerged. His two massive claws slammed into the nearby wall, momentarily shaking the entire pyramid. The sheer force was enough to draw comparisons. The weakling performance in the movies was merely a stunt. The real Scorpion King wouldn't engage in a back-and-forth fight with an ordinary person. A warrior with immense combat experience, how could he possibly lose to a mere mortal?


With a whoosh! The Scorpion King, swiftly leaping forward on his scorpion limbs, swiftly rushed forward. The chasm in the ground had no effect on him. His massive body nimbly leaped up and down, even scaling the ceiling. His sharp claws thrust with lightning speed. A clamp like that would have been fatal.


Black Arnold grunted, his fists turning metallic as he met the Scorpion King's powerful blow.


Bang! The Scorpion King flew forward, slamming down several statues before crashing to the ground. Black Arnold took a few steps back, shaking his numb fist. Even after clashing his fist against the pincers, his hand remained intact, demonstrating his immense strength. This wasn't just a Reincarnator from Act III; it was either a top-tier Reincarnator from Act III or a formidable figure from Act IV. A weakling couldn't possibly face a boss. After all, a boss crushes Reincarnators. If they crushed the boss, what would this mean?


The Scorpion King shook his head, his mind already haggling. "Roar! Mortal, you're courting death!" With that, a dark force rose from the abyss and surged into his body, enlarging his massive form even further. In an instant, he charged forward.


Bang! This time, Arnold used his metal mesh to cover the Scorpion King. Then, with a savage grin, he unsheathed a massive axe and chopped off one of the immobilized Scorpion King's pincers.


"Puff!" "Ouch!" Scorpion King Mata let out an inhumane scream. Fishing nets are incredibly restrictive, making it impossible to break free in a short period of time. The opponent took advantage of this opportunity and chopped off his claws with a single blow of his axe, leaving the net unscathed.


Arnold grinned, raising his axe and stomping down Scorpion King Mata's other pincer. He sheathed both pincers and watched the Scorpion King wail in agony, his smile utterly sinister. Previous bosses in this dimension had been a nightmare. He had betrayed his teammates to save his life. To climb the ladder and gain power, he had even given his wife to a higher-up for gang rape, only to commit suicide under the humiliation and torture.


Arnold was a completely selfish individual, willing to sacrifice anything for his own benefit. He would stop at nothing to climb the ladder. He would sell out his brothers and wife, even his own plans.


But now, with this kind of power, it was all worth it. As long as one possesses strength, what is beyond their reach?


Whoosh! A sandstorm swept in, enveloping them, so intense that not even a finger could be seen.


"Ah!" A scream echoed as one of their men's arms was severed at the root. The fishing nets were ripped apart, allowing the Scorpion King to break free and swiftly escape, fleeing far away.


Imhotep, also appearing in the distance with the sandstorm, addressed the Scorpion King beside him, saying, "Respected King, I am your servant, a priest. Let me hold them back. Please return outside and command the army to drive them down!"


The Scorpion King's claws were gone, dripping with dark, foul-smelling blood. "Very well, what is your name? I will reward you greatly upon your mission!"


"Imatep, your loyal servant!" Imhotep acted respectfully. His plan was simple. First, he would pretend to be a servant, gain their trust, then wield his special spear to slay the Scorpion King. This would allow him to possess the Scorpion King's power, and ultimately become the most powerful. The man who dared to cuckold him was doomed!


Each of the three parties had different agendas. The Scorpion King intended to kill everyone except his own servants. Meanwhile, Immertep's goal was to kill the Scorpion King and seize his power, thus achieving his goal. The natural outcome was revenge against Chen Luo. No man could accept being cuckolded. A true man must avenge his past shame and wash away this humiliation with the blood of his adulterer!


The Scorpion King leaped into the abyss, teleporting through it to the desert. He also snatched up several souls and chewed them to regain his strength.


When the Scorpion King appeared in the lineup, the second-act Reincarnators were caught completely off guard. Seeing the severed Scorpion King, they immediately activated, unbidden, and began attacking.


Ranged weapons like fire, wind blades, and bullets focused their fire, while melee fighters continued to mow down the horde of dog-heads.


Bang, bang, bang! Countless spells and magic pelted the Scorpion King, but to no avail. After devouring the soul, the Scorpion King's expression was extremely ferocious. He withstood all their damage, and even the crippling of his hands did not affect his toughness in the slightest. High resistance is a nightmare for any damage-dealing profession; it's simply impossible to fight!


Elsewhere, Immertep enveloped the room in a sandstorm and summoned a large number of man-eating beetles. Without needing to be commanded, these beetles knew who to eat. "Enjoy this feast, ants. I will remember your contribution!" He then transformed into dust and departed.


The two team members who were healing outside were suddenly entangled in chains formed by sand, and suddenly fell into a state of suffocation. Immertep carried the two away from the pyramid. This was a good opportunity to claim credit!
