Mitsubishi Galant Battery Problem

I have replaced my EGR value. my car was running fine for 2 days I smelled something that seems like a wire was burning then I heard a lloud knocking sound. And the car locked up while I was driving I pulled over to restart the car and i moved it maybe 300ft it just died.it wouldn't come on when tired to start it or anything. At the time I didn't have that much oil in my car. I knocked on the starter to see if it would start it sounded like it wanted to but it wouldn't start!. Took my battery to Advance Auto Parts to see did my battery die the man charged it up for me, I put it in my car and It still wont start. So what could it be???

sounds like an internal engine failure form what you said, lack of oil.
