Chapter 1327: The City of Sacrifice

……

Although it is a city, it should be regarded as a temple, a temple dedicated to the supreme god 'Ra'. As a result, cities are not as large as real cities. But compared to ordinary cities, Heracples is more majestic than usual.

Looking down from the Suowan Mountain where Liu Dong and others are located, it can be clearly found that the entire Heracpus is rectangular. It is about 800 meters long from north to south and about 250 meters wide from east to west. The whole ancient city is distributed in a three-step pattern from front to back, and the last layer is built close to the Suowan Mountain, with a height of 45 meters, which is extremely majestic.

"How are we going to go down, Master?" said Roddy.

Liu Dong's cave entrance is facing due east, which is exactly at an angle of 90 degrees to the direction where Herakpus is located, and it is impossible to use the last height of the ancient city to go down, so the distance of nearly 100 meters from the cave entrance to the basin where the ancient city is located has become the most difficult existence to cross.

"Didn't you prepare the rope?" Liu Dong frowned.

"Ready! But we lost some of it in the battle with those mercenaries the other day, and a few of the ones we lost in that steel passage yesterday, and now we have only one rope left that we can use! But this one is only 50 meters, far from enough to send us safely to the ground. ”

"50 meters?" Shaking his head slightly, he took enough rope from the mustard seed space and threw it over, "Plus these should be enough!"

"Yes!" said in awe. Luo Di hurriedly took the rope handed over by Liu Dong. One end is tied to the alloy door buckle. Threw the other end down the hill hard.

With a rope, it is naturally easier to go up and down.

After the group was down-to-earth, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and finally came down.

"Let's go!"

Glancing at the majestic ancient city of Herakpus not far away, Liu Dong greeted him excitedly, and then strode towards the location of the gate of the ancient city.

This time, there was no need for him to greet him too much, and his curiosity about the ancient city drove everyone to take out their fastest pace, and followed Liu Dong to the only gate of Heracpus in the south direction.

"It's spectacular!" faces the main entrance of the ancient city. Clark Müller couldn't help but admire.

Hearing this, Liu Dong glanced at him, smiled slightly, and didn't say anything. Strictly speaking, the main gate of the ancient city of Herakps is indeed quite spectacular, the height of the city wall alone is close to ten meters, and the width of the main gate is also more than ten meters, and on both sides of the gate are four stone Egyptian pharaoh seated statues, and on the left and right sides of the pharaoh sitting statues, there are two obelisks with a height of about 15 meters!

But maybe it's because of the war or the later sandstorms. One of the two obelisks to the left has collapsed, and the four stone statues of the pharaohs have also been damaged to varying degrees.

As for the city gates, which were supposed to serve as a defense, they are long gone.

Moreover, the ancient cities of Egypt did not have gate towers like the ancient cities of China. The location of the entire ancient city gate is the city gate, and the two sides are still city walls, and like the outer city wall, the height of this section of the city wall of about 15 meters is also ten meters, and there are two layers with a total of 16 square black holes.

Obviously, these black holes are convenient for the defenders to strike at the attackers from here.

After walking through the city gate with Luo Di and others, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a road about 150 meters long and 5 meters wide, all paved with rocks, was presented in front of everyone. On either side of the corridor are miniature stone sculptures of the Sphinx, which resemble the 'stone statues' commonly found in Chinese imperial tombs, along the corridor to the magnificent palace at the end.

It is a huge stone palace located on almost 50 steps and more than 20 meters high. The majestic corridor in front of the palace, supported by papyrus columns, is no less majestic than the temples of Amun and Karnak.

Between the two papyrus pillars sits a huge idol of more than 10 meters high, and in the middle of these majestic idols, there are three tall portals for entry and exit.

In the absence of competitors, Liu Dong naturally chose the middle portal and walked in.

"So many dried corpses?"

The first thing that catches people's attention as soon as you enter the temple is not the ornate statues of the gods and goddesses, but the walls around it that are filled with ancient Egyptian-style frescoes. It's the corpses that fill the hall.

Picking up a weapon from the ground that was not completely decayed, the shape should be similar to a knife, and after briefly looking at the remaining clothes on these corpses, Liu Dong guessed that they should be soldiers of ancient Egypt, and he didn't know which dynasty it was. However, according to Clark Müller, if the story of the ancient city of Heracples is not a legend, then they should be Egyptian soldiers killed in battle during the New Kingdom.

"Click......!"

At this moment, Sinclair accidentally came across a skeleton, and although he didn't move much, the bones that had been preserved were reduced to fragments of ashes almost instantly.

"Uh, I didn't mean to!"

Looking at the eyes of everyone focused on him, Sinclair couldn't help but be embarrassed.

"Let's keep walking, watch your step!"

After giving a command, Liu Dong strode forward.

Immediately, everyone hurriedly followed, but although they had paid attention, there were still a large number of bones that had turned into loose ashes along the way.

The bones that had been preserved for 3,000 years due to the arid and rainless environment of the desert have long lost the slightest resilience.

At the beginning, as a traditional Chinese, Liu Dong, who had the idea of the dead as a big thought in his heart, still felt a little guilty for breaking people's bones. But then I couldn't avoid it, so I let it go.

And compared to the bones on the ground, which should have died long ago, the exquisite moments in the stone hall, the stone statues of the pharaohs, gods and sphinxes in various shapes can arouse his interest even more.

Anyone who knows about ancient Egyptian civilization knows that the most famous building of the Egyptians in BC is Will's pyramid. Obelisks, stone pillars and statues twenty or thirty meters high. Moreover, these architectural styles of ancient Egypt had a profound influence on the later Greek civilization.

If. If you compare the Acropolis and the Temple of Luxor, you will see that there are many similarities between them, especially the architectural form.

After taking a turn in the middle hall, Liu Dong briefly browsed the palaces on the left and right sides, and it turned out that the three gorgeous palaces were almost the same, with most of the stone statues of pharaohs and gods, and the rest were murals and carvings that reflected the Egyptian wars, production, and most importantly, sacrifices.

"The master of the door. I think let's continue to go back, there is nothing of value here!" "Luo Di is not an archaeologist, in Liu Dong's eyes, he is a treasure that cannot be changed, and in his eyes there is no value at all.

Of course, Liu Dong didn't say much about this. The turnip greens have their own loves, and in the eyes of Luo Di, the golden cutie is the real wealth.

"Let's go!"

Liu Dong nodded.

Things can't run here, it's all meat in his bowl sooner or later, and it's not too late to appreciate it when he moves home.

In addition to the palace, what appeared in front of Liu Dong and the others was a rocky corridor that led directly to the second grander palace behind. This time, however, the sculptures on both sides of the corridor are no longer small sphinxes. Instead, with the addition of a stone base, it is 3 meters high. Standing statue of an ancient Egyptian warrior holding a weapon.

Two rows, nearly 100 tall samurai statues, each of which is draped in a stubborn and serious expression, makes everyone walking through it can't help but feel solemn.

In addition, behind the two rows of samurai statues, between the two palaces, there is no completely empty space between the first layer of the palace and the city gate, but a lot of square stone platforms about 1 meter high and 80 centimeters long are built with stones, and the middle of the stone platforms is full of sand, and there are still some dry tree trunks on one or two stone platforms. Obviously, these compact stone platforms were supposed to be used for planting flowers and trees.

It's just that after the ancient city was buried by the wind and sand, they were no longer alive.

Walking through the solemn atmosphere of the road, and coming to the last layer of the temple, which was mostly embedded in the mountains of Suowan Mountain, Liu Dong stopped.

The architectural form of this floor of the temple is not much different from that of the second level of the temple, whether it is the papyrus bundle pillars or the statues of the gods, the difference is that the pillars and statues here are taller than the second level of the temple.

"Huh?"

Just as Liu Dong was about to raise his legs and step up the steps, he couldn't help frowning.

"What's wrong with the Door Master?" said Roddy.

"We have competitors!"

After the words fell, Liu Dong turned his head to look at the sky in the distance.

"Competitors?"

Luo Di was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately followed Liu Dong's gaze as if he understood a little. After a short time, a subtle buzzing sound suddenly sounded in Roddy's ears, and as the sound gradually became louder, dozens of dense small black dots appeared in the sky in the distance.

"Helicopter!"

"Hmm!" Nodding slightly, after thinking for a while, Liu Dong quickly ordered: "Luo Di, you take them to the back palace to hide!"

"What about you, Master?" said Roddy.

"I'll stay and meet these guys and see who they are!" Liu Dong said indifferently.

"No, Master, they are outnumbered, so let me stay with you!"

"No, I know very well how much I am capable of myself, and you can't help but be distracted if you stay. ”

"But ......!"

"It's nothing, carry out the order!" Liu Dong said after waving his hand to interrupt Luo Di's words.

"Yes......!"

Looking at the serious expression on Liu Dong's face, Luo Di nodded somewhat reluctantly.

"Everybody come with me!"

Looking at the subordinates who hid in the temple behind him under Luo Di's greeting, Liu Dong, who had no worries for the time being, also relaxed. With his current ability, in the case of some precautions, firearms have lost their threat to Liu Dong.

"Buzz ......!"

As the roar of the helicopter grew louder and louder, the distance between the two sides grew closer.

Liu Dong simply lost, all the helicopters added up to about 25, except for five or six old-fashioned armed helicopters, the vast majority of the others were light transport aircraft. However, to Liu Dong's surprise, there were actually four European EH-101 Bobcat heavy transport helicopters.

This kind of big guy with advanced performance is not cheap, and Liu Dong, who often deals with arms, knows very well that none of the forces that can come up with this kind of price of 12 million US dollars per plane is simple.

"But that makes me even more curious!"

Just as Liu Dong was thinking about who was coming, helicopters stopped one after another at the top of the second-story palace in the ancient city of Herakps. The sturdy rock dome was enough for them to dock.

"How did the two of them get together?"

For those soldiers or mercenaries who were on guard with guns after getting off the helicopter, Liu Dong didn't care much. And when he saw clearly the hook-nosed thin middle-aged man who walked down from the helicopter surrounded by elite soldiers, and the beautiful woman in the allure who got off a bobcat heavy transport helicopter and wore a yellow-green camouflage military uniform, but still couldn't hide her slender and bumpy figure, Liu Dong couldn't help frowning.

However, while Liu Dong was surprised, the people who stood on the top of the temple and saw him were equally surprised.

"Nancy, do you know him?"

Looking at his sister's frowning brows, Saeed Ali Abdullah, who had just gotten off the helicopter, looked Liu Dong in the distance up and down and asked.

"Well, this is the leader of those elite mercenaries when I was in Haiz!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, after being slightly stunned, Said couldn't help but look at Liu Dong with interest.

"Two, it looks like someone is already ahead of us!"

As he spoke, a thin middle-aged man with a hooked nose walked over.

"In that case, then trouble Mr. Rune to get rid of this person, it should be an easy thing for this elite black mercenary group. And I promise, all the loot that Mr. Rune got from the other side goes to you, how about it?" Said chuckled.

Hearing this, Foster Rune's face froze, he had already learned that Liu Dong and his party were strong in combat, and he didn't want to rush up again and be beaten by others.

Moreover, Foster Rune, who had suffered heavy losses again in the previous Satanic Storm, had lost a lot of strength in his hands, and he would definitely not easily wear out his already small manpower unless it was necessary. Otherwise, the smiling Middle Easterner next to him would definitely chew him up without hesitation and enjoy all the treasures inside the ancient city of Herakps alone.

Seeing that the plan of instigating Said to take the initiative to break out a conflict with Liu Dong and make both sides lose could not be realized, Foster Rune snorted with an unchanged face and continued: "Mr. Said is joking, don't look at their small number, but all of them are the most elite soldiers, and the few people I have left are not necessarily other people's opponents!"

"Oh, yes, I would love to talk to Mr. Rune about someone who can be so feared!"

Syed's subtle derogation annoyed Fort Rune, but he could only endure it when he was not as strong as others.
