Evelyn woke up late this morning, and she didn't have much appetite since she ate too much yesterday, so she went straight to Debes to do archaeological research. But she always looked absent-minded.

"Eve, Eve!"

Jonathan's voice woke Evelyn, who was standing in front of the wall.

"Huh? What's wrong? Jonathan. ”

Jonathan pulled Evelyn under the light, reached out and waved it in front of her eyes, asking, "What's wrong with you?" Absent-minded look. ”

"Last night, was there really a cat as big as a human last night?"

Before Jonathan could answer, Krieg and Elou beside him, holding a wooden box, passed by Evelyn, and Elu waved her paw at Evelyn in a friendly manner.

"It's true!"

Evelyn scratched her hair, wondering what was going on in the world.

Jonathan took out two pancakes from his bosom and handed one to Evelyn, took a bite of it, and said, "I think they're pretty good, I went to ask for one this morning, it's really delicious." When they heard that I was coming here to meet you, they gave you a copy for me to bring to you. ”

Evelyn looked at the food in her hand, tilted her head to look at Jonathan, and said, "Aren't you panicking?" I ate so many ...... yesterday."

"Hold! Eat it too! ”

Evelyn sighed and put away the food in her hand, the ruins had almost been cleaned, and she saw the direction according to the ancient Egyptian text tips on the walls.

Walking through a circular hall, following the words on the walls, Evelyn came to a passageway.

Evelyn had never felt that archaeology was so easy, and someone had cleaned up the ruins of all kinds of bugs and poisonous snakes, and incidentally cleaned up the cobwebs everywhere, and if it weren't for the protection of the materials, they might have even cleaned up the murals.

Looking at the scorpion pattern on the wall, Evelyn leaned on the wall and tapped her hand to listen to the sound inside.

Evelyn's guess was confirmed by the sound of empty drums, and she looked at the wall with all her might, but she couldn't shake it in the slightest.

'Meow Meow ......'

Following the prestige, Evelyn saw two Ellu cats, looking at her at the entrance of the passageway, as if asking if they needed help.

"I ...... Well...... How do I talk to a cat? ”

After a while, Evelyn stood in the center, two Elu cats, one on the left and one on the right, their claws pushing against the stone wall.

"I say one, two, three, and push hard!"

“o(=ェ=)o/o(=ェ=)o”

With the cooperation of two cats and one person, the stone wall fell in response.

Inside the stone wall is a burial chamber littered with scorpions, and the scattered bones prove that someone came before Evelyn.

Evelyn looked at everything inside with suspicion, as if she had been here in memory of it.

Evelyn just walked in, worrying the two cats on the side, and the cats took out their short sticks and cleaned the scorpions under Evelyn's feet, so that she could move with peace of mind.

Pull on an inconspicuous candlestick on the wall, and the wall next to it pops open.

'I've been here?' ’

A cat holds a torch in front of her, and a cat stares at the back road, escorting Evelyn forward.

After walking a few steps, Evelyn was in a trance, and only felt that she had changed time and space.

The dimly lit corridors around them were lit with torches that had been lit for a long time.

At the end of the hallway, the carved stone door suddenly opened, and an Egyptian woman with Evelyn's face could not see the door and walked out. Through this brief gap, Evelyn looked inside the stone door.

Two Egyptian warriors, armed with scimitars, guarded a box made of gold. The scorpion pattern can be faintly seen on the box.

Evelyn saw the lady in ancient Egyptian dress come out, and twisted the lock on the door, sealing the stone door.

Evelyn, who returns to reality, looks at the dilapidated hallways and cobwebs that can be seen everywhere. The two cats were looking at her worriedly.

"I'm fine, I look like I've been here."

Evelyn came to the stone door and twisted the locks as she had seen in her vision.

The stone door opens!

Tearing off pieces of spider webs, Evelyn looked at the gold medal pattern on the central treasure box and said in disbelief: "This is the symbol of the Demon Scorpion Emperor!" He was never discovered! ”

Evelyn, who was excited, and the cats held torches to remove all the cobwebs around them, so that they could see the truth of this stone chamber.

Just like in the same fantasy, the two ancient Egyptian warriors who guarded the treasure box have been dried and turned into mummies.

And the surrounding murals tell a story.

Seti I's favorite daughter, in a contest she was given the responsibility of guarding the Bracelet of Death. She placed the Ring of Death in Thebes, the last city to be conquered by the Scorpion Emperor.

Looking at the mural on the wall, Evelyn saw the illusion again.

In the splendid ancient Egyptian palace, two graceful beauties wearing metal masks are holding three forks in a fighting pose.

The gong sounded, and the battle between the two began.

Between the collision of the three forks, the crisp sound was accompanied by the assassination of each other, but the graceful posture of both sides made this battle look unique in this palace.

The battle ended in an instant, and the side that fell to the ground looked at the victor unwillingly, and reached out to remove the mask from his face.

And under that mask, it was Evelyn herself.

'That's me?!' ’

Evelyn exits the illusion in fright.

Touching her excited heartbeat, Evelyn looked at the murals around her, and then focused on the treasure box in the middle.

Trying to open the treasure box, Evelyn couldn't shake it.

"Quick! Remember how to open it! ”

In the end, Evelyn couldn't make a sound, and just as she was downcast, she accidentally saw the pendant on the warrior next to her.

It was a small octagonal ornament, very similar to the opening of the octagonal box that Jonathan had stolen.

Copied and decorated, Evelyn will match the keyhole on the box.

The treasure box was opened, and what appeared in Evelyn's eyes was the legendary Bracelet of Death.

The Bracelet of Death is made entirely of gold, a bracelet in the shape of a scorpion with a jackal's head.

Just as Evelyn wanted to take a closer look at the Bracelet of Death in front of her, the two cats next to her meowed anxiously beside her.

/.. \/.. \

"What's wrong? Are there any dangers? ”

Not understanding the cat's words, Evelyn could only guess what the cat meant. But before she could figure it out, the rumbling sound of the water had already explained the answer to her.

At this moment, the cats couldn't explain anymore, and the cats screamed and jumped.

One of them knocked Evelyn down, leaving her on a wooden cart that appeared at some point.

The stone walls on both sides of the corridor shattered, and the water of the Nile poured in directly, and the two cats one after the other, one pulling the cart and the other pushing, competing for time with the flood.

Floodwaters poured out of the buildings of Thebes and lost their tracks across the vast desert.

Evelyn and her two cats were lying on the wet sand, gasping for breath and looking at the blue sky for the rest of their lives.

Rorschach appeared next to Evelyn, his head covering the sky.

"Looks like you've got the Bracelet of Death, Nafidili."
