Chapter 497: Tutankhamun's Tomb
Olivia walked over quickly, a hint of surprise on her face. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a
She originally thought that the key needed to open the stone door would be in the hands of the pharaoh's royal family, but she did not expect that this crown would be in this tomb.
"Let me get it, there might be some kind of curse on it. ”
Olivia said to Margaret, and she reached out to remove the crown from the golden pharaoh.
"Wait a minute, look here, there's a line. ”
Margaritra stopped Olivia, pointed to the arm of the Pharaoh, and whispered.
Olivia withdrew her hand, looked at the ancient Ekiving, and whispered it.
"Illegal old blood...... Whoever touches the crown of Pharaoh will drink the waters of the river of the dead......"
As Olivia's words fell, several people present felt a chill rising from their hearts.
"Is this a curse?"
Charles leaned in towards Andy, looking around with some wariness.
"Maybe...... Does the river of the dead mean that whoever moves the crown of the pharaoh will definitely die?"
Andy was still thinking about the meaning of this sentence, and looked up, only to be surprised to find that Olivia had taken off the crown.
"Olivia?"
"Don't worry, I'm already an undead, am I?"
Olivia smiled, she didn't care too much about this curse, she was an undead curse, she sacrificed her entire life, she was essentially an undead who could think and move.
The crown in Olivia's hand was made of pure gold, but it was evident that there was some other magic, shimmering in the sun, and at the front of the crown was a huge cat'seye gem, like a real eye, staring at everyone.
Olivia placed the crown against the hollow in the stone door, and the whole stone door began to change from the bottom upwards, as if someone were applying gold paint to the stone door.
The originally gray and cold stone gate turned into a golden gate made of pure gold in just a few seconds, and when the color of the eyes changed, the stone door slowly opened, revealing the passage behind it.
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
The torches in the passage were lit up and brightened by the various gold objects and gold dust.
The end of the passage is intricately divided into many branches, and there are caves and stone gates on both sides of the passage.
It's an intricate underground world.
"This should be the mausoleum of the real pharaoh, the mausoleum of Tutankhamun...... It should be in the deepest part, as for the Demon Scorpion Emperor, it's up to you, Nie. ”
Olivia turned her head and glanced at Andy.
"Let's go in first, if there's no second entrance, then Jack just hasn't entered here, and if there's another entrance to this mausoleum, then, maybe we'll meet again. ”
Andy walked in first, and the walls on both sides of the passage were still covered with frescoes, but the content was richer, and there were some scenes of war and sacrifice.
The frescoes record the deeds of the pharaohs of the ages.
In addition to the frescoes, the walls on both sides of the passage are inlaid with figurines, their hands crossed on their chests, their heads bowed, their hands holding sharp scimitars and short bayonets, half of their bodies wrapped in the walls, looking vivid.
"We'd better not touch these things...... They are most likely pharaonic guards who have been made into mausoleum guards, and if something unusual happens, they may be resurrected, and there are at least hundreds of these things in this passage, which is no fun. ”
Olivia admonished, her eyes flashing with solemnity.
Even if she is an undead and an immortal, if she is crushed by these guards, there is nothing she can do.
"Can they be resurrected?"
Andy was a little surprised, and looked carefully at the figurines on the wall, there was indeed a special power in the figurines, which made him a little uncomfortable.
"It's not like the Pharaoh was resurrected, the resurrected Pharaoh has terrible magical powers, but these mausoleum guardians may only have a little more developed limbs, well, and besides, they are not afraid of death, and they will not die. ”
Olivia tilted her head and stared at Andy.
"Okay, okay, we have to be careful. ”
Andy sighed, and he glanced at the fork in the passage in the distance and the nearby tomb gate in some embarrassment, and fell into deep thought.
"I don't know where Tutankhamun's mausoleum is, but Andy, I think maybe we can walk from here, I can feel that this leads to a nice place!"
Andy was struggling with whether or not to enter the burial chamber on either side of the passage when Margaret suddenly stepped up and grabbed his arm, pointing him in the right direction.
"Well, maybe I should listen to you. ”
Seeing the strange brilliance in Margaret's eyes, Andy nodded, anyway, they don't have a map of the mausoleum, it is better to believe in Margaret's feelings, at least Margaret can sense something.
Because he was afraid that there would be something strange in other tombs, Andy didn't choose to pry open all the doors of those tombs without the necessary certainty.
Under Margaret's guidance, the three of them walked hundreds of meters along the passage before they came to the front of a tomb.
To Andy's surprise, in addition to the frescoes, the passage was full of figurines suspected of being the guardians of the mausoleum, and they had walked so far that they saw at least hundreds.
Olivia walked to the tomb, looked at the door of the tomb, gently wiped the dust, and looked at the patterns and words by the light of the torches.
Tutankhamun...... He became a pharaoh at the age of nine, and during his reign he made the Eki Empire the most powerful empire in the world, and died at the age of nineteen when he was cursed for angering the gods......"
The frescoes on the stone gate and the nearby walls depict the life of Tutankhamun, who became a pharaoh at the age of nine, fought against all sides, and borrowed the power of the gods to become one of the most powerful human beings of his time......
"Look at these paintings. ”
Charles pointed to the wall in front of him and said to the three of them, his face a little excited.
Andy walked over and saw the pattern on the wall.
The pattern roughly depicts Tutankhamun's final phase, when the powerful Tutankhamun conquered the nearby empires and became so conceited that he did not even take the sun god who gave him power into account, and began to believe in Osiris, the god of the underworld, for fear of death.
Tutankhamun made a golden mask out of the world's most precious and mysterious mystical gold, and worshipped it day and night, winning the favor of Osiris, but he angered the sun god and was cursed to death.
After his death, Tutankhamun was buried in the tomb of the pharaohs, the city of the dead Hamnata.
Tutankhamun was buried with the endless gold he had been plundering for years, a large number of prisoners, and hundreds of guards and maids in the pharaoh's palace.
"It seems that this is Tutankhamun's tomb, and it may not only be Tutankhamun, but his guards and maids may also be in it, hmm...... Maybe it's a big burial chamber, Marge, what did you feel in it?"
Olivia's face became solemn and she asked in a deep voice.
"Death, resentment, anger...... Also, a large number of souls. ”
Margaret closed her eyes and said word by word.
"A large number of souls?"...
Olivia's pupils contracted suddenly.
"That's right, it's so large that I had a vague sense of it when I landed on the island, at least ...... One hundred thousand!"
