Chapter Ten

1

As the sky was nearly dark, Guffy found a mark on the yellow stone at the edge of the cliff.

"Maru Tian, is this mark the entrance number ten?"

Maru Tian ran to the edge of the yellow stone and wiped off the dust on the mark with his sleeve. However, the mark had been eroded due to its age, and it looked very similar to this partially eroded mark compared to the mark of entrance number ten in the book.

"It should be here. Who else would be so bored to carve something here?"

Guffy felt that ordinary people wouldn't come here, let alone do something.

"The entrance should be below. Move it."

Several strong people moved the stone, revealing a hole.

"There's a barrier, this must be it." The book mentioned that the author left a barrier at the entrance to prevent others from entering first.

"This is just a small thing." Guffy lightly scratched the barrier formation with his fingernail, and the barrier disappeared.

"This kind of formation is too amateur. The main shapes and lines are too obvious and easy to break." Someone who has studied the Magic formation a little would use some meaningless lines and shapes to conceal the true shapes that guide magic.

"Captain, it seems that a sandstorm is coming again. Let's go in." Hong saw a sandstorm approaching in the distance.

"Gather up and enter the pyramid. This time, we will definitely find something unique to prove that we are adventurers."

"If there really is a secret, my name, Fei Hong, will be known to the world after the first adventure!"

"Idiot, if you are known to the world, will the people of Emoetnia spare you? By then, the two of us brothers can forget about going abroad!"

"At least wait until you die to tell the world about it." Guffy patted his shoulder and pushed him hard.

"Faye! What's this for? What if there's a toxic gas below?" Hong watched his brother fall without even a sound.

"This place has been visited by so many people, if there was toxic gas, they would have died long ago."

Maru Tian suddenly felt that Guffy's actions were not right and said, "Guffy, the person who gave us the book has been seriously injured. We should be careful."

"Alright, I'll go down and see how he is." Guffy jumped down, and a tunnel extended downwards.

Maru Tian reached out to Qing and said in a gentleman's tone, "Hold my hand, let me take you down."

Qing looked at him quietly, then looked at his hand and raised her hand to hold him. Who knew that Maru Tian would hug Qing tightly and jump down directly.

"The captain is still flirting at this time." Hong bit his lip and mustered up the courage to jump down.

Entrance number ten is actually five hundred meters away from the pyramid. If the tunnel remains vertical, it means that there is a large area under the desert where the pyramid is located.

"Look, why is the passage inside so large?" Guffy entered the pyramid from the tunnel at the entrance, and the walls of the passages were very magnificent, decorated with many murals and patterns, and there were long texts engraved on them. Guffy took a quick look, and the content was praising the people inside the pyramid.

Guffy looked at the paintings and inscriptions on the walls along the way. The fonts were from a long time ago, and it would take time and energy for Guffy to recognize all the characters.

The others watched Guffy staring at the words and paintings on the walls without interruption, and didn't bother her. They all knew that only Guffy could fully understand the content on it, and understanding the content might be useful for them to decipher the secrets of the pyramid.

"Is this the tomb chamber? The content is not directly related to the people inside the pyramid. It can only be seen that there are three people in the pyramid, and they are all rebellious people. These praising texts are actually nonsense."

"Blabbering?" Maru Tian stood next to Guffy and touched the paintings on the stone wall.

"Yes, it's all nonsense. It's more reliable to rely on your damaged book."

"Based on the murals here, they should match certain descriptions in the book, but who knows how they've changed over time?"

"The book should mention how many guards are inside the pyramids, right?"

"How do the author and his descendants count every time they enter?"

"Let's assume the maximum count, maybe they didn't see all the guards."

Maru Tian immediately flipped through the book in his hands and said, "There are two sphinxes with human faces, which they encountered every time they entered. One is facing east and the other is facing west. It seems that the sphinxes have a fixed position. As for the other Anubis guardian statues, they are truly different every time. A total of twenty-three."

"Fewer than the other explored pyramids!" Guffy had also done research on other pyramids before, and she was here because she didn't find much attraction in the other pyramids she had studied.

"It's not about the number of guardians, but how much damage these guardians can inflict." Qing thought it was very suspicious.

"It could be quite lethal, similar to brutality as far as the injuries of the original book owner are concerned." Maru Tian recalled that person, the deep wounds that showed bones, no different from being torn apart by wild animals.

"Why don't you try it? Your tomb was robbed, and you also want to kill people."

Maru Tian picked up the book in his hand and pointed ahead, saying, "Go that way. Staying here won't do us any good."

Following Maru Tian's guidance, everyone quickly followed him and arrived outside the burial chamber.

"It's strange, everything went smoothly, not even a single guardian was seen, could there be a problem?" Guffy stood outside the door feeling uneasy.

"No way, Fei, with your experience, where could the problem be?" Hong looked at the atmosphere of the guards and found a problem, saying, "Did you notice why there's still light here even though we've been inside for so long? Clearly, there are no torches or lamps."

"It's only when you mentioned it that I realized the light comes from where?" Guffy looked around and then said, "Based on my experience, there shouldn't be any light, as I've never been inside any other pyramids. I've only heard rumors about what to expect inside."

Maru Tian suddenly shook his head.

"None of you here have been inside a pyramid. If everyone is so fearful and hesitant, the dream of adventurers would be too far-fetched."

"If that's the case, I, Guffy, am not afraid of death either. Let's go in!" Guffy tried to push the door, but it didn't budge no matter how hard she pushed. She infused magic into it, but the door remained motionless, as if the magic had disappeared into the sea without any response.

"There must be restrictions." Maru Tian walked to the front of the door and pressed the center, discovering that six iron rings rolled out from the grooves on the door. Maru Tian grabbed one of them.

"Come, five of you, listen to my commands."

Six people held onto the iron rings, and the rings moved chaotically in their palms, exerting tremendous force as everyone squeezed tightly.

"Impact the center of the door, together!"

"Clang!" The simultaneous impact of the six forces hit the center of the door, and in an instant, the door was opened.

"That was too easy, right?" Guffy looked at how they were able to open the door so easily and thought it wasn't too complicated.

"Easy? Look inside!" Maru Tian's forehead dripped sweat the size of peas. Following his gaze, Guffy saw all twenty-three Anubis statues neatly standing inside, it seemed they had been waiting for a long time.
