Ancient Egypt, one of the four ancient civilizations.

It was located in northeastern Africa, in the middle and lower reaches of the Nile, which is now the Middle East.

About this place, it can be summed up by "one ancestor, two peoples, three diasporas, four wars".

Because of its special geographical location, it is a transportation hub between the East and the West.

Coupled with religious and cultural differences, this area is in a state of chaos all year round.

Of course, there are also reasons for the interference and meddling of major powers.

Most people's image of ancient Egypt may be the dark and quaint temple buildings, the imposing pyramids, and the mysterious Sphinx.

In fact, in addition to the above, the first mutant organizations also appeared here.

Compared with Europe and North America, the Middle East, where the three religions and nine streams live in mixed groups, is actually more convenient to hide itself, and it is less likely to be ostracized and persecuted.

In addition, the oldest mutant on Earth, Apocalypse, was born in ancient Egypt.

After he became the honorable pharaoh, he transformed all the loyal guards around him into mutants.

Later, the apocalypse fell into a deep sleep and gradually became forgotten.

But those mutants who have been transformed continue to develop their compatriots and grow in power.

In the Middle East, every warlord or religious leader with some bit of strength.

More or less in their hands, they all have several mutants as secret weapons.

Turn back the clock to twenty minutes.

Outside the pyramid.

Endless desert of yellow sand.

A team of men is actively excavating.

Look at their dress, like caravans walking in the desert.

But judging by their behavior, they are more like a group of tomb robbers.

The pyramids were the tombs of the ancient Egyptian kings, who historically called them "pharaohs".

Due to the profound influence of religious culture, the ancient Egyptians formed a deep-rooted "concept of the afterlife".

They believed that the earthly world was only a temporary abode, and that eternity could only be obtained after death.

Therefore, every ancient Egyptian, especially the aristocracy.

They will carefully prepare their graves in order to gain eternal life after death.

And the pharaoh's mausoleum pyramid, which means "ladder to heaven", is naturally more magnificent and magnificent.

When they die, they will use all kinds of precious jewelry and antiques as funeral objects.

Those rulers enjoyed honor in their lifetimes, and when they died, they aspired to bring power and glory to the underworld.

It's just that they don't know that using a magnificent building like a pyramid as a mausoleum can not only show their own strength and majesty, but also attract an endless stream of tomb robbers.

Like, now.

"Are you sure it's here?"

A stubby man with a beard asked, frowning.

"I'm looking for the pharaoh's tomb, like Tutankhamun's tomb, which will make us a lot of money!"

Tutankhamun was also a pharaoh of Egypt, and his tomb was later discovered by a British archaeologist in the Valley of the Kings.

The funeral items inside are incomparably valuable, and just the gold mask, which weighs ten kilograms and is inlaid with various gemstones, can fetch a sky-high price at auction.

According to statistics, the museum valued some of the excavated antiques and gold, which can be as high as 650 million pounds.

That's an astronomical sum, enough to drive anyone crazy.

Since the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, the archaeologists who participated in the development work have all become rich overnight, attracting countless envious eyes.

Correspondingly, the Valley of the Kings, which was dedicated to the burial of pharaohs and their concubines, is also full of pits.

Every place where there is a possibility of burial treasure has been warmly visited by tomb robbers.

"Caliban don't lie. I could feel that there was a pyramid underneath it, which had not yet been discovered, buried underground. ”

A bald man who looked like he had albinism said in an affirmative tone.

His name is Caliban, and he is an alpha-class mutant.

It has excellent perception ability, and can not only detect nearby compatriots, but also detect the terrain, which can be called a humanoid radar.

"Hopefully you can't go wrong."

The beard said with a warning hint.

"Archaeological work" in ancient Egypt has been one of the hottest investments in recent years.

A lot of rich aristocrats, they like to find a few archaeologists, and then give money, give people, and look for the tombs of the pharaohs.

If you succeed once, the rewards are enormous.

Like the great seafaring that once prevailed, the royal family sponsored navigators who discovered the New World and brought back gold and spices.

"You can't go wrong with Kaliban."

The bald man seemed to be afraid of the sun and covered himself with his hood.

He is one of the most well-known black marketeers and intelligence brokers in the Middle East.

As a mutant, not only is he not discriminated against, but he also mixes well.

"Dig down, you'll definitely get a surprise."

Caliban hid in the shadows, and in his perception, there was a magnificent pyramid underneath.

Judging by the size and size, it will definitely not be much worse than Tutankhamun's mausoleum.

His deal with Bearded was to find him a pyramid mausoleum that had not been visited by tomb robbers.

They will be paid handsomely, as well as sheltered by private armed forces.

Bearded is a big warlord in the Middle East, and the employer behind him has a mysterious origin.

Belonging to the Caliban, who cannot be offended.

"Found it!"

Someone dug the entrance to the pyramid.

"The inside is sealed and can only be blown open with explosives!"

When the bearded man heard that the entrance was sealed, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

This means that it has not been visited by tomb robbers and is a well-preserved mausoleum like a virgin land.

"Blow it up! Blow it up for me! ”

The bearded man shouted.

He was hired by an organization in England to find ancient ruins, such as pyramids, pharaohs' coffins, and the like.

Some wealthy and powerful Brits seem to be interested in mystical powers.

Every time there is news in this regard, they will take the initiative to contact themselves and provide a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Well done, Caliban! You're still useful. ”

The beard was very satisfied, and he did not hesitate to praise him.

Soon, the explosives were arranged.

Boom! Boom Boom!

A huge wave erupted, shaking the sand on the ground.

The entrance to the interior of the pyramid is unblocked.

"Send a team to go in first! Look at the situation! ”

The bearded man commanded.

In order to prevent tomb robbers from destroying the mausoleum and disturbing the pharaoh's sleep.

Some pyramids are built with various mechanisms.

After the death of those uninvited guests, there were also horror stories such as "the curse of the pharaohs" and "haunting ghosts".

"If I can find something good, the British should be more generous."

The bearded man is dreaming that a local warlord like him, if he licks the British, may have a better development in the future.

"Wait......"

After a few minutes, Caliban's face changed slightly, as if he sensed something.

A look of horror rose in his eyes. Hurriedly ran to the bearded man's side.

Ignoring the scorching sun, he said urgently: "Hurry up and get out!" Inside...... Someone! ”

Someone?

The pyramid is the tomb of the pharaoh, and what else can there be in it besides the dried corpses of mummies?

The question of the beard was still stuck in his throat, and the ground shook violently, far more than the movement caused by the explosives.

The sand and gravel are like flowing water, constantly rolling, forming a turbulent whirlpool of different sizes.

Thundered!

The pyramid buried in the ground rose sharply.

The terrifying pressure flowed down like a waterfall, suffocating everyone present.

The majestic pyramid rises from the ground and reveals its true face.

Immediately after, a tall figure in metal armor and full of majesty stepped out of it.

"Could it be...... Apocalypse? ”

Caliban shuddered, and in his senses, the tall figure was like a huge mountain range, overwhelming people.

The energy radiates out, forming a high-temperature heat that resembles substance.

It's like the sun god in ancient Egyptian mythology, and people can't help but want to kneel on the ground and worship.

Caliban immediately thought of the legendary Apocalypse, the oldest mutant on Earth.

He couldn't think of any mutant who could have such a terrifying aura other than the other party.

"But, how...... And one more? ”

Trembling all over, Caliban slowly knelt down.

The shock in my heart has not yet subsided, and I feel a powerful being.

The man exuded an energy glow that was not much worse than the apocalypse, and it was majestic, like an erupting volcano.

All of a sudden, it was as if two suns appeared in the sky.
