It was a wonderful time, because with the Black Sutra of the Dead, which could communicate with the underworld, there would always be some unprofessional priests studying this. They soon discovered a terrible thing, the current pharaoh was going to hang up.

It seems that the people of that era did not think of death as another situation of life, or as something else unknown to the people. The unprofessional priest made a strange prophecy, but the tablet does not describe in detail what the prophecy was. But the prophecy soon spread from the hands of the unscrupulous priest, perhaps knowing too much, and the priest would eventually become one of the priests who accompanied the pharaoh in his funeral.

Even the pattern on the last tablet does not describe what the prophecy is about, let alone any time, but it does describe what the place it was. After the prophecy was left behind, a second pyramid that was not the tomb of the pharaoh was erected at this time.

The first pyramid is, of course, the "Great Mummification Workshop" where the protagonist O'Connor is located at this time, where the priests prayed and sacrificed to the gods.

And the 'function' of this pyramid is very simple, that is, hidden. Legend has it that if you want to enter the Tower of Hamna, you have to have the right way. Otherwise, we can only wait for the moment when the sun appears, and the position of Hamna Tower will appear for a short period of ten minutes, and then continue to disappear into the sea of sand, like a mirage.

The greatest credit for this is the pyramid. If the "Great Mummification Workshop" is a place to worship the gods, then this pyramid is the 'canopy' of the entire City of the Dead. The lives of 999 slaves were sacrificed, and the blood of 142 ploughing cattle and 857 yellow sheep was sacrificed to pour every inch of land under this pyramid. The 999 wailing souls were answered by Osiris, one of the gods of the Nine Pillars, the god in charge of the underworld.

Osiris answered the priest's prayers, satisfied with the sacrifice, and sent down a divine power to envelop the city of the dead completely. Only recognized priests were able to step into the realm of the gods, and this is where the mystery of Hamna comes from.

However, there is another function hidden by this pyramid, which is something that countless generations of pharaohs buried here did not know. If you look down from above the sky, you can see that the pyramid position of the entire Hamna Tower is not without any patterns.

This means... The City of the Dead itself... It's a big altar!

Wen Zhong's face changed slightly and said, "You mean that those who die here will be sacrificed?" ”

"No!" Alex shook his head, "Sacrifices in ancient Egypt weren't as we thought, just being killed was fine. Among the Nine Pillar Gods who are really willing to accept killing as a sacrifice, there is no one at all! Only some unrecognized gods would accept such sacrifices.

However, if the sacrifice fails, the souls who are killed but cannot be accepted will be trapped in the altar forever until the day when the dead are freed or the altar is broken! If this altar was not used for sacrifice, then it would have had only one other function that we don't know about, the greatest possibility... It is to open the door to the underworld! Alex made his assumptions a little pale.

This kind of inference made the faces of the four of them a little unsightly, but Wen Zhong suddenly asked, "So as far as you know, up to now, how many people can still know the way of ancient Egyptian sacrifices?" ”

Wang Yun shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There is no answer to this question at all, as a family of tomb keepers, we should know the things of the past best." But even we only retained the most superficial sacrificial method, and we couldn't communicate with any gods at all. Truth be told, if I hadn't seen Ra's messenger with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed in God at all! Unless it's a god, who can understand the method of sacrifice here? ”

Lei Chan looked at Wang Yun, and finally showed a look of sudden realization on his face. Although he didn't know the so-called three-god duel prophecy, he finally figured out the answer that was in front of him from beginning to end, and what he ignored. If Ra's messenger could be lying, why can't there be a second liar?

He suddenly showed the smile he was used to, but unfortunately it was blocked by the mask, and the slight laughter couldn't help but make the three of them stunned. I only heard Wen Zhong look at Alex and say, "If it is said that there is also an altar inside, then is there a way to destroy the altar here?" ”

"It's possible that this is not the center of the altar, but the pillar of light..."Alex was a little anxious, but was interrupted by Wen Zhong waving his hand: "You just need to tell me, can you interrupt?" ”

Alex hesitated, nodded and said, "If this is the center of the altar, then..."

His words were interrupted again by Wen Zhong's goods, which was really a bad habit, and only heard Wen Zhong focus on a few key points and say: "Didn't this place sacrifice many lives before it finally became the 'canopy' of the entire Hamna Tower?" So as a 'canopy' to communicate with the gods, it is very likely that there is an altar inside, is there a way to destroy it? ”

Alex was stunned, now that the outside is already an apocalyptic appearance, what is the point of destroying the 'canopy' of Hamna Tower again? Despite this, he quickly reacted and said, "This is possible, if you want to destroy this altar, you only need to destroy the number of sacrifices." Ancient Egypt had strict requirements for the quantity and quality of sacrifices, and they were more strict with the gods than with their own lives. ”

But then Alex reacted, shook his head and said: "But there is no way, no one knows what the method of sacrifice is, even if someone dies here, it is impossible to complete the sacrifice." The only way might be to blow it up, but we..."

Almost all of the four of them had cold weapons in their hands, except for Alex and a small pistol. With such equipment, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to even knock down a pillar.

But Wen Zhong walked to the stone gate and said, "It's time to meet our friends!" ”

As he spoke, he pushed the door open completely!

...

The other end of the stone gate is not as dark and calm as Alex imagined.

As the stone door was pushed open, there were waves of sound on the other side, which was full of the screams and hobbies of countless people, and in the empty and silent corridor, it made the four of them feel that this was a spiritual impact.

After getting used to the impactful sound, the four of them walked in with trepidations. The sound that had just heard undoubtedly made the four of them cautious, they didn't know that in another pyramid not far from here, the scene that appeared was extremely similar to what they were seeing.

It's just that this pillar of light is not rising to the sky, but frantically pouring into the ground, its source comes from the top, and it seems to be frantically absorbing the soul through the top of the pyramid! Yes! Soul! Faces full of fear were writhing and howling in the pillars of light, like the end of the world.

A man stood in front of the pillar of light, and he quietly looked at the pillar of light in front of him, as if he was enjoying the afterglow of the sunset.

"My good friend, you're finally here!" The man smiled and turned around, smiling at the shadows where the four were hiding. Maybe other people don't know it, but this person Alex does, he can't help but look at the 'arc' beside him, but from the 'arc' eyes, he seems to have guessed that this person will appear here!
