Chapter 36: The Sphinx

No one knows if the Temple of Apollo has received any reports, because before the Temple of Apollo reacted, Ryuji and Nick had already left the city of Madefuna.

Ryuji wasn't stupid either, and of course he understood that if a player stared at Horus's above-ground palace, then what was hidden underneath would certainly not be so simple.

It's very likely that like the Golden City he encountered in the last game, it is ostensibly a place where necromancers work, but underneath it hides the divinity of Quetzalcoatl, and even a demonic player.

The current situation must be who will go to the ground palace first to have the advantage, and Liu Zhi will not wait for that player to go first.

After Nick and the others had almost rested, Ryuji and the others set out on their way with their luggage.

As for the camel, Ryuji didn't plan to rent it anymore, who knows what the Sphinx ate, and if he accidentally ate it all.

In addition, that place is not far from Madfuna, and their strength is not bad, so they simply walked over like this.

After walking for about four hours, they left the city in the middle of the night, and when the sun was about to rise, they finally came to a place about fifty miles south of the city of Madfuna.

This is a small valley, in fact, after the city of Madfuna, the main type of land is the valley and desert, and the same is true of the legendary Valley of the Kings, and even legend has it that all the peaks there have been dug up and turned into the tombs of the pharaohs.

The valley in front of you is not as big as the legend says, but is shrouded in a layer of yellow sand, and if you don't go here, no one will notice that there are still living creatures in this valley.

However, after Ryuji and the others arrived, Ryuji took out the box that Toth had given him directly from his backpack.

Then Liu Zhi said loudly: "Is there a human, is there a beast, I am here to deliver something." ”

Before Liu Zhi's words fell, a strong wind blew in his face.

Ryuji's understanding of the wind is quite in place, after all, his extraordinary strength has mastered the art of strong winds, but his strong wind that can blow sailboats is nothing under this strong wind, and Ryuji only feels as if he is being blown up, and he can't control himself at all.

And in the next moment, the wind actually stopped, and Ryuji looked down and found that he seemed to be standing in mid-air, and he looked down at his position a little speechlessly, as if he was still in mid-air at this time.

What kind of situation is this, although he has seen the battlefield from the sky above the universe, he can't fly.

Before Ryuji could fall, a huge sphinx appeared in front of him.

The sphinx in front of him was more than twenty meters tall and more than fifty meters long, if it was a long tail, it would be about seventy meters long, and a pair of wings were spread out for nearly thirty meters, so it spread out flatly, and the strong wind was rolling back and forth under his wings, fixing him in mid-air.

The face of this sphinx is more than five meters long, it is an ordinary and majestic human face, and he wears the royal family peculiar to ancient Egypt on his head, that is, the kind with a fan-shaped "Namus" turban drooping on both ears, and a cobra decoration engraved on his forehead, and I don't know why a lion would dress himself with such decoration.

His jaw had a long, drooping beard, which was at least seven meters long, tied into a bunch, and looked full of wisdom.

The Sphinx glanced Ryuji up and down, then the lion's paw reached forward and beckoned to something on the ground, and the box given by Toth flew in front of the Sphinx.

He didn't open the box either, but put it on his fingertips and said with some nostalgia: "It's the God of Wisdom, I haven't seen Thoth since Abidostott's Divine Exhibition was demolished hundreds of years ago." ”

Ryuji didn't know that there was such a thing, and he didn't know what to say.

Then the sphinx said, "Alright, this thing is for the king of my clan, I will take you to the king, by the way, let some of your men come in with you, but you have to warn them not to disturb the things in the valley." ”

After speaking, before Yanagi could react, a gust of wind whistled away, and by the time Yanagi reacted, he had already fallen back to the ground.

Ryuji always felt that something was wrong, as if there was something important in that box that he didn't know.

But after thinking about it, Liu Zhi didn't plan to fight with the so-called wisdom god, and the wisdom god's brain is generally better.

Wait, for some reason, Liu Zhi suddenly flashed the shadow of a wisdom god who was a little lost in his heart.

Shaking his head, Ryuji said to Nick, "Okay, let's go into the valley, but you saw that just now, Sphinx, he told us to be careful when we go in, don't mess with the things inside." ”

Nick wasn't stupid, they knew when they couldn't move, and when they could carry everything away like a tomb robber.

In the process of entering the valley, Nick and the others were all honest, and one of the little brothers next to Nick was still joking there.

"This mission is to run and run, which is much easier than the previous tasks."

Ryuji ignored him, but looked at the situation in the valley, and after entering the valley, Ryuji understood why the sphinx didn't mess with the contents when he let himself in, this valley was clearly the sphinx's lair.

In addition to the two sphinxes about the same size as the one just now, there are about forty sphinxes the size of ordinary war horses, more than a dozen sphinxes the size of elephants, and four sphinxes twenty meters long and more than ten meters high.

It can be said that there are sphinxes of all levels.

On both sides of the valley, there are a large number of one-man tall eggs, which look like rocks, as if they will be weathered when the wind blows.

On the top of each egg, there is a green gem, which seems to carry a kind of life light, and is gently breathing with the wind.

Even Ryuji, who had reached level 7 of gem knowledge, was stunned when he looked at these gems, and he could only be sure that these were real gems, but he couldn't judge why they had become like this.

At this moment, the voice of the sphinx from before rang out again.

"This is our king, the modern Sphinx."

Ryuji looked up and realized that they had been led to a mountain wall, which was thirty meters high and turned out to be a half-asleep human face.
