Chapter 906: The Great Burial Area
Han Dong led Mary Tis, showing her status as a "superior slave" recognized by the Colosseum, and walked all the way to the pyramid.
Huge...... Indescribably huge.
It is several times larger than the pyramid in Han Dong's impression, or even dozens of times, which is why the black pyramid can be seen clearly no matter where you are in the divine capital.
The surface of the pyramid is filled with black light, and the whole is like an inherent seal.
Feeling the powerful coercion emanating from the pyramid, Han Dong estimated that even if his own strength was completely unsealed, it would be difficult to shake it.
In addition, each black stone block used to construct the pyramid is in a semi-living state, and the semi-living characters imprinted on the surface will also change with time.
Whether it is the design concept or the scale, it must surpass the pyramid set up in the Void Realm by Dean Richard.
Of course, Dean Richard's pyramid is primarily used to communicate with the Void, acting as a medium of communication.
The black pyramid here is equivalent to the brain of Shendu, and the original intention of the two is different, which determines the difference in scale and complexity......
In Han Dong's eyes.
Powell. Dean Richard is a very potential existence, and as the town of Ridley grows, he will inevitably become stronger, and maybe he will be able to obtain the all-out cooperation of the town of Dryry one day by virtue of his status as a shareholder.
……
This time, the [Promotion Competition] will be entered through the bottom gate on the east side.
"Nicholas and Mary Thread from the Colosseum, please go to the [17] examination room for a detailed pre-game physical examination."
A pyramid attendant wearing a golden mask and a rickety body received the two men, walking along a black passage that completely shielded them from perception.
The so-called examination room is only a special biomass chair.
"As usual, there will be a limit to the number of pieces of equipment that can be carried, up to a maximum of two.
At the same time, it is forbidden to bring black water for external use, including the general black water in your wallet will also be kept by us for the time being. If you die during the race, the relics will be handed over to the organization to which you belong.
Please sit on the "test station", which will check your whole body status, and as long as you meet the testing criteria, your data will be uploaded to the think tank.
Finally, the appropriate parameter corrections will be made to the competition according to the number of participants. ”
"Okay."
When Han Dong sat on this chair, which resembled a stack of flesh, a large number of synapses immediately came into contact with his body.
Similar to the drug tests at the Olympics, there will also be an internal examination of the participants' bodies to confirm that they have not taken any amplifying drugs or have been implanted with a non-contained living creature that is not allowed by the competition.
THIS IS TO ENSURE THAT THE CONTESTANT DOES NOT HAVE ANY TEMPORARY AUGMENTATION BUFFS.
"As the number of applicants is higher than in previous years, we will first be screened through a "one-person test".
The "one-man test" set up by the pharaoh's think tank is arranged in the [Great Tomb Area].
It will be used to test your strength, your ability to observe, and your decisiveness.
However, all the inhabitants of the Shendu, regardless of the reason for death, will be made into "mummies".
It was then sealed into a coffin and placed in the lowest layer of the Black Pyramid - the Great Burial Area, which was used to stabilize the foundation of the Divine Capital.
For some reason, some of the deceased will wake up in an alternative way.
Although the coffins that sealed them were quite strong, there was also the possibility of being destroyed...... Once these living corpses are allowed to escape, it will affect the stability of the entire [Great Burial Area].
This test requires you to go to the Great Tomb Area alone and kill a resurrected mummy.
The "Eye of Horus" set up in the [Great Tomb Area] will monitor the actions of each contestant...... Once you have successfully slain, please carry the mummy's head and follow the guidance of the Eye of Horus to the preparation area of the [Ascension Competition].
At the end of the test, we will screen a subset of people based on the quality of the mummified heads.
Remember, you are only allowed to bring back one head. ”
The pyramid attendant suddenly distorted, and his left and right arms turned into structures similar to those of face-hugging insects, which quickly extended and attached to the walls on the left and right sides.
The originally sturdy black wall was immediately disintegrated into two passages that would lead to different areas of the [Great Burial Area].
Han Dong sensed a problem and immediately asked, "I have a question...... Since it's a solo test, how can you ensure that you won't meet in the [Great Tomb Area]? Hundreds of people signed up for the competition, so there should be a certain probability that they will meet in the cemetery. ”
"Rest assured.
Even if 1,000 people enter the [Great Tomb Area] at the same time, the probability of two people meeting each other will not exceed 0.01%...... Even if there is a possibility of meeting, it will be foreseen by the Eye of Horus and separated in advance.
If you're ready, let's go.
The countdown has begun, and you have two hours to complete this solo test. ”
"Miss Mary, be careful."
"You'd better be careful......"
Marites didn't look back, and immediately disappeared into the dark shadows of the left passage.
Han Dong shrugged his shoulders and walked alone towards the depths of the passage on the right.
At the end of the passage corresponds to a "transit intestine".
When stepping into it, the intestines automatically coat the passenger with a transport film.
In an 'extremely smooth' way, it slides rapidly down the intestines.
When the bottom exit is reached, the friction between the membrane and the intestine instantly increases tenfold, slowing down the rate of decline...... So that the passenger can land steadily.
A strong stench of corpses soaked into the nostrils.
By the time the membranes on his body were removed along with the transport intestines, Han Dong had already arrived at the so-called [Great Burial Area].
Han Dong also understood the reason why the attendants were sure that the participants would not meet...... It's so big, and the view is extremely limited.
Since the establishment of the Divine Capital, all the dead of the Divine Capital, whether the lowliest slaves or those in power, have been mummified and placed here.
The coffins were piled up 'all over the hills' underneath, and there was no end in sight.
The mountain is made of coffins,
The road is likewise paved with coffins,
There was black corpse gas spilling out of the cracks of the coffin at any time, making the view of the large burial area extremely limited.
Han Dong's first time was not to look for the resurrected mummy, but to think about the fundamental meaning of the existence of this [Great Tomb Area]...... Why pile up such a large number of dead bodies underneath this.
"By the way, there is also an opening in the wormhole of the city wall that leads to the lower end, and the mutilated who are not organized to collect it, as well as some of the dead, will be dumped downward.
The large burial area is also set at the 'lower end'.
It seems that these piles of corpses are 'suppressing' something...... Forget it, until the strength is completely restored, don't think about these questions that involve the root of the gods.
Hurry up and find the right living corpse. ”
Although perception is blocked.
But Han Dong has another means.
Wisps of black sand separated out, and as Han Dong straddled through the coffins, he was able to inspect all the coffins within ten meters of the surroundings at the same time.
In just ten minutes, the number of living corpses found by Han Dong has exceeded ten, but the quality is very poor.
The heads of the lowly mummies will definitely be sifted out, and a living corpse with a difference must be found......
Han Dong's 'taste' is quite picky, and he walked in the large burial area for an hour and still couldn't find a satisfactory living corpse.
Considering the time constraints, Han Dong, who was about to retreat, suddenly heard a strange voice coming from the front.
Crunch crunch ~ like gnawing on something.
Slow down and hold back your breath.
Follow the source of the sound and slowly look for the past tense.
A mummy, covered in bandages, wreaked havoc on the coffin and devoured the dried corpses inside.
