Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 190 Windfall

The book charm is a kind of spirit creature, so it is very sensitive when faced with this kind of divine power, so that it has such a violent reaction when it comes out. If it were replaced by an ordinary human being, the situation might not be discovered until the conversion reached an irreversible point.

As the last defense inside the pyramid, the divine power-drenched defense method used in this room can be regarded as a defense method that fully matches the style and overall status of the pyramid, but it is not common.

From entering the pyramid to entering this core control room, Lawrence can be said to have gone smoothly all the way, except that he encountered a group of vulnerable mummies in a certain passageway and a few doors that he could not open without some knowledge. I have never seen any mechanism, no magic traps, no various mechanisms, and no groups of armed puppets.

Of course, there's nothing surprising about this. After all, there are two types of pyramids in the ancient Nile civilization. One is for the dead to live in. Naturally, it will be filled with various traps to prevent vicious tomb robbers from disturbing the peace of the dead. The other type is similar to temples or shrines, and often does not have these defensive facilities.

Just like St. Gutenberg's Cathedral, there are indeed some defensive props like statues that can be activated, and the holy spirit residing in the holy emblem. But they will only be placed around as decorations, and there will never be anything like traps on the road.

Because for the gods, their temples are their symbols in the world, so as long as they exist, the church has the most powerful protection. Not to mention that there are often countless supernatural beings who are believers of the gods to help defend these places, so naturally they will not use things like traps as a means of defense.

If the Harpy god was still there and cast his attention on this pyramid, or if the bloody sky was active here, Lawrence would definitely not be able to step into this pyramid, and even if he appeared nearby, he would be discovered and closely monitored. Can't touch the side of the pyramid.

Even if there is another person in this room who can control the internal facilities, Lawrence will be impregnated with stronger and more targeted divine power in the room below. In this way, even if he possesses the bit of divinity contained in Bai Ze's bloodline that has begun to awaken, it is impossible for him to escape as he is now.

Fortunately, none of the above-mentioned bad scenarios happened. Now Lawrence can quietly study the highest extraordinary achievement of the ancient Nile civilization.

It is also fortunate that this world does not belong to the magical world that grows stronger as it gets older, and its development depends entirely on archaeology. The whole world is always in development. So the pile in this room is probably the most advanced, most complex and powerful overall magic design back then. For Lawrence, who has mastered the latest mystic knowledge through the blessing of the gods, it is not the kind of mystery that cannot be solved.

As Lawrence wrote and drew, a huge formation slowly appeared on the area under his feet in light yellow. On a flat ground paved with stone slabs. A few hours later, when he put down the last stroke, an extremely complicated magic circle diagram appeared at his feet.

"Goo————" Just when he was about to study it seriously, he suddenly felt a feeling of hunger in his abdomen, accompanied by the sound of empty stomach motility.

It has been sixteen or seventeen hours since Lawrence entered this space, and during this process, he has not eaten anything other than drinking some sugar salt water that he brought with him. Although extraordinary people are much better than ordinary people in all aspects, they will still feel hungry if they don't eat food after ten hours of high-dose exercise.

"Well, it's better to think while eating, and to be in the best state at all times during the adventure." Lawrence muttered and recorded the picture on the ground in his mind, and then walked back along the open door. hall.

After glancing at the pattern that was still drawn after repeated simplifications, Lawrence felt that his research might take several days before he could figure out some clues. Therefore, during this period of time, a safe resting place that is relatively close to the research site is very necessary.

After a brief thought, this front hall was chosen by Lawrence as his resting place. It's just that in this way, the bones placed here are very obtrusive. Normal people definitely don't want to have a row of ribs on the left and a femur on the right when they sleep, and accidentally turn their head and kiss a skull.

Looking at the bones scattered in the front hall, Lawrence sighed and took out a dozen shoebox-sized wooden boxes that were originally planned to hold various harvests from the space bag, and then put the severely weathered remains on the ground together. With good convergence.

Although the cultists lying here probably did very evil things during their lifetime, according to the tradition of Lawrence's previous life, the dead are the most important, he still put the remains in these boxes, and then activated Bai Ze's power to protect the dead. The victims performed a simple requiem ceremony.

Unexpectedly, as the ceremony was held, Bai Zexuying began to dance the ancient dance that he had danced in Lawrence's mind before, and then wisps of white light mist formed on the tips of his folded hands A white light cast ball.

After the milky white ball of light appeared, ripples surged in all directions around the ball. After the milky white ripples touched the remains in the box, the box containing the remains immediately released wisps of blood-red smoke.

The blood-red smoke disappeared in the void as if it had been neutralized after touching the ripples of milky white light released by the light ball on Lawrence's fingertips, but the newly produced blood-red smoke on the bones continued to flow from popped out of the box.

Lawrence felt that he was riding a tiger. He didn't expect that just an ordinary requiem ceremony could trigger such a strong reaction from Bai Ze's blood. But the matter has come to this point, and it is absolutely impossible for him to give up halfway at this time.

Fortunately, every time a bit of bloody smoke is cleared, Lawrence can recover some magic power through Bai Ze's blood. So he is confident to win the final victory in such a tug-of-war.

The tug of war didn't last long, or in other words, it was much shorter than Lawrence himself imagined. After just over half an hour, there was no more blood-red smoke floating out of the box.

"It's finally done." After watching the milky white halo projected through the boxes onto the remains and passing through them smoothly, Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief, and planned to close the lids of the boxes. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the remains in the box quickly disintegrated into a pool of ashes as if they were made of sand.

In the process, the remains in each box gave off wisps of gray smoke. Finally, these gray smoke condensed together, forming a basketball-sized gray mist ball.

【Appraisal】Lawrence searched the mystic materials in his mind and found that there was nothing that could explain this strange phenomenon, so he directly used magic.

【Memory, after the dead gain peace with the help of external forces, they give their memories as gifts to those who helped them. Just get in touch. Of course, because the time since the death of the deceased is too long, these memories are just fragments. 】

Is this the legendary man's reward? The corner of Lawrence's mouth was raised slightly. After he packed up the boxes and piled them in the corner, he stretched out his left ring finger and lightly touched the gray mist ball floating in mid-air.

The moment his finger touched the gray mist ball, the phantom of Bai Ze in Lawrence's mind immediately came alive and made a sucking gesture. The fog ball immediately turned into a rope also made of gray mist and flowed along his body directly into his mind, and was then sucked into his body by Bai Zexuying.

As the gray fog disappeared bit by bit, a lot of information also flowed into Lawrence's mind. When the last wisp of gray mist disappeared, he finally knew what happened here that year by sorting out these broken memories.

"They are indeed crazy, they can do such a thing." After opening his eyes, even Lawrence, who had experienced the most incredible experience, couldn't help sighing. "Hopefully I'm making the right choice now."
