Chapter 496: Pharaoh's Crown
"Although there has never been a real resurrection of the pharaohs, it is undeniable that the power that can resurrect them is real, but not yet all the conditions have been met. [with _ dream]ā"
The expression on Olivia's face became a little subtle, and she glanced back at Andy.
"However, the most likely pharaoh to be resurrected is Tutankhamun, he is the greatest pharaoh of the Ekki Empire, and it took a lot of effort to successfully resurrect himself. ”
"Then why didn't he come back to life?"
Margaret was looking at the figurine-like sculpture beside her, turned her head when she heard the words, and asked curiously.
"I heard Jack say that Tutankhamun believed in Osiris and used a golden mask as a burial offering, but it was only because Anubis stole Osiris's power that Tutankhamun never came back to life......"
Andy replied that this was what Jack had told him when he first extended an invitation to him.
"That's right, Marge, look around here, there are statues of Anubis everywhere, the power of Anubis has shrouded in the Tower of Hamna, once we take the golden mask from Tutankhamun's body, Tutankhamun's mummy will accept the power of Anubis, the mighty pharaoh is resurrected!"
Olivia's voice echoed through the empty pyramid chamber, and the wind roar could be heard faintly from behind the stone door at the end of the chamber.
And the roar of the wind seems to be mixed with prayers, curses, struggles, and curses...... and so on for a small murmur.
"Boss...... You, did you hear that?"
Charles was startled and leaned in Andy's direction.
"Ha, it's just a reaction to some ancient curse, Charles, you shouldn't be so daring. ”
Andy patted Charles on the shoulder, looked at Charles, who was a little pale, chuckled and shook his head.
He suddenly remembered what Charles looked like when he was captured in the quilt.
Charles was the boatswain of the Bloody Mary, and his captain and first mate died at Andy's hands.
One of the most unlucky was the first mate, who was still immortal at the time, and Andy cast the curse magic of the Black Death Curse and died in pain.
At that time, Charles seemed to be trembling subconsciously when he saw Andy, and when he talked to Andy for the first time, he almost cried because he was slapped by Andy.
"Can't blame me for that, chief...... You know, I've always had a lot of respect and fear for this mysterious power, and if I were to fight another guy, I wouldn't be afraid of it even if I saw blood, but I would be excited......"
"But...... If I'm dealing with an undead who has mastered the power of evil...... Oh~ That's horrible. ”
Charles's body trembled, and his eyes looked around from time to time.
"Don't worry, Charles, there are three wizards here, and no curse can hurt you. ”
Charles nodded, straightening up, but it seemed that his heart was still a little weak.
"I need blood to get me excited. ”
Charles took a deep breath, he listened to the faint roar of the soul in his ears, and his violently beating heart gradually calmed down.
An esoteric feeling arose in Charles's mind.
"It seems...... I've found a way to awaken the heart of the ocean...... Perhaps, I need a hearty battle, overcome the fear in my heart, and fight the undead. ”
Charles was inexplicably excited, he quickly followed the footsteps of Andy and the three, and when he looked at the mysterious totem imprints and various gods in the pyramid, the fear in his heart seemed to be reduced.
The stone door at the end of the burial chamber was closed, flanked by two huge statues of Anubis, polished from black boulders and smeared with gold dust, and Anubis's eyes were two rubies, shining with an eerie red light in the sunlight reflected in the mirror, which looked inexplicably terrifying.
The stone door was covered with ash, and some murals and other things could be faintly seen carved on it, and Olivia wiped the ash stains from the stone door in front of her with her hand, revealing the iconic carving in the style of the Ekie Empire.
The main figure carved on the stone door is dressed in strange costumes similar to those on the sculpture of the Pharaoh, flanked by several guards, armed with short blades and scimitars, and scantily clad waitresses standing with gold and silver vessels.
"A scene in the palace of the pharaohs...... It looks like something is being chosen, maybe a funeral companion. ”
Olivia thought for a moment and said with some uncertainty.
"In addition to the pharaoh's tomb, there are also the guardians of the tomb, and most of them are the most trusted guards of the pharaoh during his lifetime, don't ...... Maybe there will be a favorite concubine to accompany the funeral. ”
Olivia sneered with some disdain as she said about the funeral.
"How is this stone door going to be opened?"
Andy touched the lines on the stone door, then rubbed his fingers to get the dust off, the stone door was more than two meters tall and didn't look like it was easy to open.
"There may be a mechanism around here, don't try to force it open, this may be the real mausoleum gate, if you forcibly destroy it, maybe something will happen that we don't want to see. ”
"Well, damn the Pharaoh's Tomb. ”
Andy cursed under his breath and glanced at Margaret and Charles.
"Look around, and if you come across something suspicious, don't take it lightly. ”
Margaret nodded, looked left and right, and walked over to a pile of golden figurines.
Charles, on the other hand, groped his way to the side along the wall.
Andy had the same idea as Charles, and he began to probe carefully along the other wall of the stone door.
The walls are carved with many lines, most of them in the form of old men and guards and maids from the ancient Eki Empire, and a few slaves chained, though most of them are located at the bottom of the wall frescoes.
"Boom~"
Not far behind Andy there was the sound of stones grinding and chains sliding, and Andy turned around to see the stone door where Olivia was standing, a little sunken downward.
Charles, on the other hand, looked at a stone handle in his hand with some surprise, which he had just inadvertently touched.
It's similar to the case of the pharaoh sculptures that I encountered on the island.
"What's going on?"
Andy was disturbed by the sound and walked over.
The position of the stone door depression looks like the shape of a crown, and there is a large groove at the very top, perhaps a gemstone.
"Huh?"
Margaret looked at the sunken pattern, and with a startled look, she walked quickly to the spot she had explored before, pointing to a golden figure that was one man tall.
"Look, this crown and that pattern fit perfectly!"
