The picnic is over. Everyone at the Pen & Fun www.biquge.info Cabinet thought it was a very successful party, and the guests and hosts parted happily, and everyone was full of praise for the good craftsmanship of the chefs.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Magellan.

Although he thought clearly at lunch, the white hat might really want to reconcile, but this made Magellan even more embarrassed when he saw him.

Thinking about it, Magellan felt that he had to stand firm in his convictions and resist the temptation of supernatural powers. He now hugged the countess's thigh, white and tender...... Ah no, thick and strong, with a bright future, I don't know where it is higher than the white hat, and I must not let this rare good opportunity pass.

So after that, he lived a life of doing nothing and sitting and waiting for the progress of the excavation.

With the help of the local tribal friends brought by the White Hats, the ruins were excavated much faster than before, but strangely, no new discoveries were made for a long time.

Bored of waiting, Magellan went to the countess to inquire about the situation, and then heard unexpected news.

One of White Hat's friends from an indigenous tribe who knew about the legend of the ruins told White Hat that there would be no writing left in the excavated area, and that it was not until he crossed the "Road of the Sun" and reached the "Sun" that he could find the "Book of the Sun", which recorded all the secrets.

Magellan kept his mind and didn't ask what this new series of terms around the "sun" was, but he couldn't help but feel sad knowing that he was going to live a long life of idleness.

Fortunately, there are also chefs who will not give up, which makes the boring life a lot more fun.

Such a life ended sooner than Magellan thought.

"They found the golden hummingbird. ”

The news swept through the expedition like a storm in less than a morning, and everyone knew about it, whether it was an explorer who had nothing to do or a kitchen assistant who lived in seclusion: the black friends in white hats had found the golden hummingbird statue.

Finally, the countess walked out of the tent.

Everyone understands that something important is about to happen.

"Wow......"

Magellan, who saw the countess in front of the ruins, let out a sigh of admiration from the bottom of his heart.

Helen was wearing tight canvas pants, her hair was tied up in a ponytail, and her perfect figure was undoubtedly revealed, showing more of Magellan's heart-wrenching heroism.

"I remember the path of the sun was meant to test the Warriors?"

"Yes. The white hat made no secret of his amazement at the sight of the countess.

"We've collected all three keys, have we passed the first test?"

"No, the key just means that the warrior is eligible for the trial, and the first test has not yet begun. The White Hat quietly turned to the side, letting go of one of the native warriors behind him.

"The monkey represents wisdom," the warrior said in the local vernacular, while the white hat translated for him, "the fish represents strength, and the hummingbird represents agility." ”

"Only when all three tests are passed will the road ahead be open. ”

"I don't think there's a shortage of warriors here. The countess looked around, "Everyone, if you want to, can come and try, and the warriors who pass the test can get a hundred gold Victoria from me." ”

The crowd boiled.

"Hooray!"

As the people were immersed in the revelry, Magellan noticed that the white hat shrugged at the warrior behind him, and the two of them showed a disapproving expression together.

"Until then," whispered Magellan as he leaned in close to the countess, "there are some precautions that must be made known to all, and I think Mr. Ron must have something to say." ”

"Of course," the white hat said calmly, "First of all, the three tests, wisdom, strength, and agility can be carried out separately, and the warrior must carry the corresponding key, and after passing the test, put the key in the right place, and the door to the next test will open after the three keys are in place." ”

"At the moment, the biggest problem is that we don't know which door the three tests are. ”

The countess walked into the ruins, followed by Magellan and the White Hats, who went down the stairs.

"Really...... Impressive. ”

Helen looked around and let out a sigh of exclamation.

The room was so large that it could almost be called a hall, which was dug out of the underground rock formations, and the gaps between the rocks were filled with stone bricks and a kind of adhesive. There were small pits dug out of the walls on all four sides, and grease was still left in them, which had been lit, and the firelight lit up the entire hall.

The first thing everyone sees is a huge gold relief on a wall: a ring of snakeheads. It seems to be a totem with some kind of metaphor, the ring is made up of snake heads with long mouths, each of which has another snake sticking out of its mouth, and the next snake has another snake sticking out of its mouth, and so on until the body behind the original snake's head is covered by the final snake's mouth. On the other hand, it seems that every snake mouth has swallowed the body of the snake in front of it.

"It's kind of like ...... Ouroboros?"

This pattern is indeed very similar to that of the Ouroboros, except that the Ouroboros' body is replaced with a snake mouth, so that the body from the neck down is swallowed.

"This door is the passage to the next test. The warrior behind the white hat looked at the pattern on the door with an expression full of awe.

The countess turned.

"Behind the remaining three doors was the test, but we didn't dare to go in. We don't know how dangerous the test is, and we don't know which test is behind each gate, only that the warrior who fails the test will die, so ......"

"Tell all this to the warriors who are ready to be tested, and we'll come back tomorrow. ”

After the countess had finished speaking, she turned and left.

"Her confidence is admirable, isn't it?"

The white hat walked up to Magellan, who was still in place, looked at the countess's back, and whispered.

"I can't figure out why she's sure the door will open tomorrow...... But I have a conjecture, a crazy conjecture. Perhaps, she felt that she could pass all three tests on her own. ”

"What a ...... A lady who always surprises people......"

"See you tomorrow. ”

......

The next afternoon.

Magellan followed the countess into the hall for the second time.

Unfortunately, no one tried to pass the test for this whole day.

"As the ancestors said, the most important test is invisibly, the earliest to start and the latest to end, that is, courage. ”

Whether it was the indigenous warrior who said this, or the white hat who translated it, they all had emotion on their faces.

"There is no need to sigh about this, we are an expedition team to archaeology, not warriors who have been tested in ancient times. Magellan said this before the countess.
