Chapter 276: The Movement of the Dagger
"The Dawn rescue ship is about to arrive, and now that the disaster has begun, I need to hurry."
Laura turned her head to look at Anna and said, who nodded and said:
"Go ahead, leave it to me here. Remember, Domingis must die! ”
She hadn't forgotten that it was the same scholar who gave the order to kill Richard Crawford.
Laura bowed slightly, took a deep look at the devastation of the tsunami around her, and Anna, whose face had returned to calm, before leaving amid a sonic boom.
The construction team on the Chakchel temple was ordered to continue their excavation, much to the annoyance of the team leader.
Because although their group and tools are safe, the oil on the reef and the tender ship is only enough to run the construction machinery for two working hours, and after that, they can't rely on a few pickaxes to deal with the hard stones in the passage, right?
"Bang!"
The sudden explosion sound on the opposite shore startled them, and the team didn't know who complained:
"Is that hellish place a forsaken land? I just got a tsunami, and now what kind of moth is it? Earthquake? Mudslide? Fortunately, this ghost temple here doesn't seem to be affected. ”
As soon as the words fell, the ground beneath their feet suddenly began to shake, and everyone's eyes were on the man who had just spoken.
"Rory! Shut your crow's mouth! ”
However, this "earthquake" was not a natural disaster, but a man-made cause, and Laura, who was in a hurry, crashed directly into the temple through the light hole on the top of the temple.
The geological structure here is indeed unstable, and after the original basketball-sized light transmission hole was violently knocked open by the brutal energy, the rock layers at the top were peeled off under the drive of a chain reaction.
Time was pressing, and after finding the location of Chakchel's key inside the altar, Laura directly smashed through the hard stone wall with a single punch, grabbed the dagger grip and pulled it out with a large amount of stone fragments.
"Huh?"
What she didn't expect was that the Chakchel's Key, which was supposed to be stored in Ichchel's box and activated through a special ritual, reacted with her own sun power.
The shield that was originally held up was quickly extracted because of the power of the sun in it, and the cover, which could no longer maintain its own energy balance, exploded instantly, and the terrifying energy directly blew a large hole in the top rock layer that was still slowly peeling off.
Anna, in the small town of Cozumel, had just buried the bodies of Antonio's mother and son in a large pit she had dug and was mourning silently with a shovel.
After hearing the sound of a violent explosion coming from the direction of the temple reef, she turned sharply, her eyes full of worry, not even knowing that the wooden shovel handle in her hand had been burned to ashes by the overflowing high-temperature energy.
It wasn't until a red-gold figure rose from the reef and pierced the dark sky beneath the total solar eclipse that Anna breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Laura really couldn't say what she was suffering at this time, and the broken dagger stuck to her hand after being activated by the power of the sun, and she couldn't break free at all.
And I don't know if it's her own delusion, the sun's rays, which originally only had one circle left in the sky, seem to have become dimmer.
Flying into the Pelican as fast as she could, Laura set the navigation destination to Paittiti, and then waited for Rachel's Archon Warframe to bring the silver box from the Seven Hardships Cult before she could set off, and by the way, try to get the dagger that was stuck to her hand to absorb the power of the sun.
As the strongest armor she possessed so far, the Archon could only fly a little slower than the specially modified Pelican, so it only took it a little more than two minutes to reach Laura's current location.
Taking the Ichchel Box from the Warframe, Laura found the slot at its bottom and eagerly stabbed the dagger in.
After a "buzz", the strange suction on the dagger disappeared instantly, and Laura finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because in just a few minutes, the power of the sun in his body has been absorbed by this broken dagger for nearly thirty percent.
"Target, Paytititi, go!"
As she slumped in her chair and gave the order, the Pelican's three engines spun at full speed, turning into a stream of light, this time with no stealth enabled by Laura for maximum speed.
Anna watched the Pelican disappear into the dark sky, glanced down at her watch, then looked at the Chuck Chel Temple, which had been cut off by the explosion, and whispered:
"With more than seven minutes to go, it's time to deal with the last bit of aftermath."

Crawford Biological Experiment Base.
Maya Hansen looked at the big red letters on the screen, "Simulation process failed", reached out and rubbed her eyes, which were a little dry.
This is the first plan she and Tony have devised together, and the result is still very unsatisfactory, the energy in Jane Foster's body is extremely stubborn, and all attempts by the two have failed.
As a super desperate warrior, she felt tired, not to mention Tony, who was an ordinary person when she took off her armor.
At this time, his eyes were bloodshot, but he was still concentrating on sitting in front of the computer and quickly designing a new plan.
Seeing this, Maya, who had no good ideas for the time being, could only move her stiff neck, stood up and walked out of the laboratory with a gentle movement, she needed to empty her brain and ask some questions to someone by the way.
"Jane saved?"
Thor, who had been pacing back and forth, immediately greeted her with excitement on his face as soon as he saw her, and quickly collapsed his face after seeing the other party shaking his head.
He was about to rush inside, but Maya reached out and stopped him.
"Tony is still working inside, don't you go in and disturb him, forget what you were kicked out for?"
Brother Hammer scratched his head embarrassedly when he heard this, he was an impatient himself, and he had walked back and forth in the laboratory like this before, and he asked about the progress every once in a while, and Tony and Maya, who were so annoyed, rushed out.
"Tony said you live in Asgard, do your doctors or scholars have anything to say about Dr. Jane Foster's condition?"
Maya Hansen asks because she thinks there is such a big gap in physical, scientific, and cultural disparity between the two races, and that knowing some of Asgard's approach to the situation may be the key to breaking the game.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he heard this question, Thor wilted even more, and said with a "I'm guilty, I'm damned" expression:
"I also wanted to contact Asgard, but after the eclipse appeared, I lost my sense of the gods, and I had been trying to call Heimdall outside, but for some reason there was no response at all."
