This pyramid is obviously not just a mausoleum, or it is not used as a mausoleum itself.
Contrary to what many people imagine, when ancient ancestors built large tombs, they did not build various secret passages in the tombs, as described in those tomb robbing novels or adventure novels, and they were not big enough to allow tomb robbing. The thief is playing temple escape inside.
Although it is said that ancient emperors would regard death as life, and bury all kinds of beloved objects with them. The more particular ones would also bury some people with them and take them to the underworld for use, and some even brought their own troops with them. Already.
But no one has ever arranged a large number of mechanisms in his tomb.
One is that due to the limitations of productivity and technological conditions, it is simply impossible to make a mechanism that can last for thousands of years and still be used normally.
The two are due to funeral customs, because death is as important as life. Whether it is a mausoleum or a tomb, it is the residence of the deceased in the underworld.
It is natural to install security guards at the door of your home, but no one would place various traps in their home, or even place a lot of bows, crossbows and machetes in the bedside bedroom.
Not only would that disturb the dead, it would also be unrealistic. This so-called mechanical crossbow is just a figment of imagination.
The real mechanisms used to prevent tomb robbers include fire, flooding, pits, quicksand, and rolling stones, but they still only prevent tomb robbers from entering the tomb.
However, the pyramid in front of you is completely different. With its complex internal structure, numerous mechanisms and various poisonous insects, it is more like a maze than a mausoleum.
"Interesting, it seems that Anubis still values his own legion very much. Not only has he set up layers of protection on the outside, but he has also deployed so many means inside the pyramid." He looked at a trench at his feet. It was full of poisonous scorpions, Chen Mo couldn't help but joke.
"Aren't these traps used to protect the Scorpion King?" Evelin on the side may have taken off the life-threatening bracelet at this time, finally showing her curious side about everything again.
Faced with this problem, Chen Mo just waved his hand to disperse the scorpions on the ground and led everyone to continue walking forward. Then he explained smoothly: "The Scorpion King once swore before his death that if Anubis was willing to help him get revenge, he would Just give your soul.
According to historical records, after the Scorpion King captured Thebes with Anubis' army, his soul was taken away by Anubis.
This pyramid in the Amshay Oasis is where Anubis placed the soul of the Scorpion King. Anyone who can kill the Scorpion King can obtain Anubis's army.
That’s why there are so many institutions here, because Anubis needs to test the people who break into this place to confirm whether they are qualified to control his own legion.”
"Then how can we kill the Scorpion King and obtain the legion of Anubis?" Jonathan on the side seemed to be very interested in this question, and approached Chen Mo and asked with concern.
Faced with this problem, Chen Mo took Jonathan's golden stick from his hand, and then twisted it twice to completely unscrew it and turned it into a spear.
"This one is the legendary Spear of Judgment. Only by piercing the heart of the Scorpion King can you kill him." Chen Mo played with the Spear of Judgment for a while, then threw it to O'Connor.
O'Connor hurriedly reached out to catch the Spear of Judgment, but he felt a little confused when holding it in his hand.
"According to the description above, it should be the Pharaoh's guards who killed the Scorpion King, so you can take this thing." Chen Mo pointed to the mural on the side and said to O'Connor.
O'Connor followed Chen Mo's finger and saw a scene depicting the Pharaoh's guards killing the Scorpion King on the wall, and the arms of the Pharaoh's guards on the mural had the same pattern as his arm.
This gave O'Connor, who originally did not believe in the so-called fate and reincarnation, a sense of fate that he had fallen into a big web that had been woven long ago and that his fate had been arranged.
And what made him speechless the most was that, according to Chen Mo, this pyramid and the Scorpion King trapped inside existed at least five thousand years ago.
In other words, his destiny was written five thousand years ago. How could this not shock O'Connor and have his outlook exploded?
However, Chen Mo saw that O'Connor's mood was not right, so he said to him: "Don't take yourself too seriously. The pharaoh's bodyguard does not refer to you specifically. Adebe and his tribe are also pharaohs."
Guard, it's just that you are special, you are the reincarnated Pharaoh's guard.
The person engraved on this may not specifically refer to you, but since you are here, under the influence of fate, this person has become you.
As for fate, it is not as exaggerated as you think. It may have some inevitable things. For example, you are the Pharaoh's guard, your wife is the Pharaoh's princess, and you are here to protect her in this life.
But this is not set in stone, and it is also not inevitable. Think about it if I didn’t save you two in Hamna Tower a few years ago, and you were hacked to death by Adebe’s tribe. What would be your fate?
It no longer exists.
Destiny represents only a relatively large possibility among many possibilities, and there may be some factors affecting the development of things and leading them to this result, but this is not static."
Chen Mo said to O'Connor, and these words were his thoughts during this period after returning from the Caribbean world.
The so-called destiny is actually a trend, but without interference, the operation of the world itself will lead everything to this trend.
Just like a river, the general direction is fixed, but not every drop of water in the river will flow downstream.
Some water will splash, some water will evaporate, some water will be pumped away, some water will be polluted, and some water will simply overflow the river or seep into the ground... everything is not absolute.
And fate is the same.
It is possible to interfere with destiny, but depending on the degree of influence on destiny, the price paid is completely different.
In the previous world, Chen Mo interfered deeply with destiny, but in the end it did not cause too many changes.
In this world, the last time he interfered with fate almost overturned, which made Chen Mo think that maybe it was the difference between the two worlds, so this time he wanted to interfere with fate again to see if it would bring any different changes this time.
The group continued to move forward, passing through overlapping corridors and various traps, and finally arrived at the core of the pyramid, in front of the Scorpion King's tomb.
In front of the door of the tomb, a pair of Anubis statues half-knelt, seemingly guarding, but also waiting for them.
