Chapter 1248 Pyramid, Sandstorm
“Keep on moving. Everyone, be careful.”
Fang Qiu‘s voice reached everyone behind him.
Although they saw the pyramid, they couldn’t find the entrance, so they could only keep looking for clues.
In the meantime…
Outside the relic, the gurus of the four major countries soon detoxified all the people from their countries.
After they saved them…
The four gurus looked at each other and turned to look at Francis and Mousolini in unison!
“What do you want to do?”
Francis always had a smile on his face. But when the gurus from the four countries looked at him, his face instantly turned gloomy.
Aside…
Mousolini’s face also changed color.
They could clearly see the hostility in the eyes of the gurus from the four great countries.
“What are we going to do?”
The Murican in a tuxedo with a pale face suddenly sneered and said, “What do you think we will do?”
As he spoke…
The Murican and the burly man from Rashk walked up to Francis.
The woman in a tight suit and the man who looked like a magician with his playing cards approached Mousolini.
Obviously…
Gurus from four major countries had already regarded Francis and Mousolini as opponents.
They couldn’t do anything about their opponents who had already entered the ruin, but they could eliminate those who were still outside in advance!
In particular, this was the best chance to do it. How could they let it slip?
For the four great countries…
It didn’t matter to them where these experts came from and which force they belonged to because their countries would always clean up the mess for them!
Thus…
Even though they knew that Francis was from Roma Shrine and Mousolini was a Styx member, they didn’t hesitate to finish these two people off.
Even if they could not accomplish that, they would seriously injure them so that they couldn’t participate in the battle for the ruin!
The gurus from the four great countries were about to make their move.
Francis and Mousolini’s faces changed as they prepared to fight.
Unluckily for them…
Though they were powerful, their strength had been reduced by more than half after they were poisoned. At this time, they were no match for the four gurus.
Soon…
Each of them came under attack from two gurus.
Francis and Mousolini were seriously injured and spat out blood.
They were forced to sit back to back. When the four gurus were about to put them to death, their eyes were bloodshot from anger, and they were ready to use forbidden tactics.
Abruptly…
“Whoosh…”
A gust of wind blew across the field.
Everyone’s faces changed, and they covered their mouths and noses.
The gurus from four great countries did the same thing. After all, they were afraid of being ambushed and poisoned again.
But…
Francis and Mousolini were so seriously injured that they didn’t cover their mouths and noses in time. After a big gasp, they realized that the toxins that suppressed their strength had decreased rapidly.
“The poison is gone.”
Francis was taken aback. As he spoke, his guru-level aura erupted.
Near him…
Mousolini also released his aura in all its full force.
With a wave of his right hand, he pulled out the rifle at his waist and glared at the gurus of the four countries with his eyes ablaze.
Aside…
After the wind blew through these poisoned people, they all recovered.
Everyone stood up excitedly.
At this time…
Francis and Mousolini had recovered their strength and immediately united. When the gurus from the four great countries saw this, they were frightened and their faces changed color.
This time, no one dared to attack again.
After all, no one wanted to be the one who started another battle.
Francis and Mousolini would deliver a devastating blow to anyone who struck first. After that, the person might not even have a chance to enter the relic, let alone fight for it.
With the grave consequence in mind…
The gurus of the four countries looked at each other and retreated.
“Humph.”
Francis and Mousolini snorted coldly at the same time and walked aside.
The two teams from Itali and Greacie formed a temporary alliance to fight shoulder-to-shoulder against the groups from the four great countries.
There was no battle for the time being.
But…
People from the four great countries didn’t stay idle.
After they sat down, they frantically tried to find a way to enter the light curtain. They wanted to solve this puzzle first and get into the light curtain while Francis and Mousolini were recuperating.
On this side…
Of one accord, Francis and Mousolini took out the healing pills they carried with them. After taking them, they closed their eyes to treat their wounds while the others focused on cracking the secret of the light curtain.
Both sides were in a brief truce.
Although everything appeared to be all right, there was no doubt that the seeds of hatred had been planted within their hearts!
Ten minutes later…
One after another, when the gurus of the four great countries opened the relic gate, all their team members got up and went in.
Over there…
After spending five minutes recovering, Francis and Mousolini quickly learned the trick to get into the relic.
The gurus of the four countries had taken their people in first. But because they had not fully recovered from their injuries, Francis and Mousolini still joined forces to go into the relic.
Without any doubts…
Upon entering the relic, groups from the four great countries, Francis, and Mousolini came across a strong black sandstorm.
A raging wind carried black clouds of sand and dust through the air. Beyond that, the sandstorm possessed a terrifying force that could easily tear apart everything.
At this sight, everyone paled with shock and could only muster up their courage to resist!
Here…
These people didn’t find any valuable leads…
Fang Qiu and others walked around the pyramid and finally saw another boulder that seemed to have come loose from the ground.
Since they couldn’t find the entrance, Fang Qiu could only let everyone continue to resist the sandstorm. Then, he and Luoyun tried to shift the huge stone.
“Boom!”
When Fang Qiu and Luoyun dragged the giant stone, it made a loud noise.
However…
The sandstorm was so ferocious that the sound did not resound far. Frankly, even Fang Qiu himself couldn’t hear it.
But…
Fang Qiu’s face immediately lit up with joy as soon as they managed to shift the boulder from the ground.
He guessed it right.
There was indeed a door behind the boulder.
Because of the loud noise, they couldn’t communicate with each other by speaking. Therefore, Fang Qiu reached out and pointed inside to let everyone in.
When they were inside…
Fang Qiu instantly asked Luoyun to help push back the boulder and block the entrance. They ensured that the door was sealed even more tightly.
Outside…
Gurus of the four great countries also came near the pyramid with their men. They saw the huge pyramid but could not find a way even after they searched all around. In bewilderment, they all stood there, not knowing what to do.
They wondered how on earth they would be able to enter the pyramid.
On one side…
Francis and Mousolini also came near the pyramid and began looking for the entrance. However, they couldn’t find it, no matter how hard they tried. They almost bumped into people from the four great countries several times.
However, because of the raging sandstorm, they couldn’t see each other nor hear any sounds unless it was a frontal collision.
The boulder was moved back to block the entrance.
Finally, Fang Qiu and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
When they were inside the pyramid, they no longer needed to pour time and energy to fight against the sandstorm.
“Whew.”
Fang Qiu let out a long breath and looked around.
There was no light inside, but these people could see even in the dark, so it didn’t matter to them whether there was light or not.
Before them…
There appeared a wide and square tunnel.
“Patter.”
Fang Qiu took the lead to walk in.
The others followed closely behind. As they walked, they began to observe their surroundings.
After they walked for some time…
They didn’t discover anything that was out of the ordinary.
It was unknown how far they had walked.
A few minutes later, the group finally reached the tunnel’s end.
As they stood there and looked down, they saw an impressively high cliff. Under the cliff, there was a vast maze. Even if they stood so high up there, they could only see a quarter or even a fifth of the maze, so they couldn’t figure out the layout of the whole maze.
Everyone was astounded by the maze!
“Er…Do we need to pass through this maze?”
One asked.
“It seems so. I think there must be something in mid-air that will hinder us. Maybe it’s a light curtain like the relic gate or something dangerous.”
Luoyun said.
“Try it, and we’ll know.”
Fang Qiu felt that their words made sense. At once, he picked up a stone from the ground and flung it with all his might to the opposite side from above the maze.
The next moment…
“Bang!”
There was an explosion.
After flying only a few meters, the stone thrown by Fang Qiu exploded into pieces like fireworks and fell toward the earth.
This scene frightened everyone.
“You’re right. Even if we can fly, we can’t fly over the maze.”
Fang Qiu helplessly spread his hands and said, “If we want to pass this place, we’ll have to find our way through the maze.”
“Let’s go.”
Luoyun’s face was expressionless as he said, “Since we’re here, we can’t retreat. It’s just a maze. If we work together, it shouldn’t be difficult to get through.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Instantly…
When he saw this huge maze, Fang Qiu immediately thought of the picture on that rolled-up parchment.
At that time, the chief of the primitive tribe had told him that the picture was related to the Pharaoh ruin.
It seemed that…
The pattern should be the map of this maze.
With that in mind…
“Everyone, follow me.”
Fang Qiu spoke up.
“Hmm?”
Everyone was stunned.
“Brother John Doe, is there a way to get out of the maze?”
Luoyun asked curiously.
The others all gazed at Fang Qiu in amazement, as they waited for his answer.
“Hee hee.”
Fang Qiu smirked proudly and said, “Let me show you how good things happen to good people.”
He finished speaking…
Fang Qiu picked up a few more stones and threw them at the cliff.
After making sure there was nothing amiss with the way to the maze entrance, he jumped down directly.
Everyone followed closely behind.
Soon, they landed.
They gathered at the maze entrance.
“Stay close. If anyone falls behind, you may not be able to get out.”
Fang Qiu said with a casual air and strode into the maze.
Luoyun and the others followed closely behind him.
According to the map on the sheepskin scroll in his mind, Fang Qiu led them forward.
After he passed two tracks, he turned round a corner.
Suddenly…
A pictograph tablet appeared in front of him.
Its contents were also recorded in detail on the parchment, so it didn’t bother him in the least.
“Follow my footsteps. Don’t go the wrong way.”
Fang Qiu reminded the others.
Then he stepped forward.
The people around him did not dare to be careless at all. One after another, they followed Fang Qiu’s steps carefully and walked by quickly.
