Chapter 10: The Legend of Nefertiti
We looked at each other, and I was about to raise my feet to enter the burial chamber, but I was stopped by a mischief, "This burial chamber has not been opened for at least a thousand years, in order to prevent suffocation from poisonous gas or lack of oxygen, we had better wait before entering." As he spoke, he took out a candle from his backpack and lit it at the door of the tomb, "After five minutes the candle is still out, and we will be able to enter." ”

"You haven't regained your superpowers yet, it's normal to be scared, it's almost time, let's go inside!" I said to the candle, which still hadn't moved at all.
