Chapter 182 Preliminary Exploration of the Pyramid (Modified)
Bill handed them a bag of Galleons, "This is your reward for catching the horse-shaped water monster, a total of 400 Galleons. The prices here are lower, and the reward amount is not as good as ours in England."
The number looks small, but it is still quite heavy in the hand.
Ron was overjoyed, he had never had a Galleon.
But George snatched the gold coin from Ron and handed it to Alan.
"These rewards should belong to Allen. If it wasn't for him, we would all die in the river." Fred and George agreed that the prize money should belong to Allen.
"What's more, he lost Neptune because of it!" Fred added.
Ron, who was ashamed that he had just seen Qian's eyes open, nodded desperately.
"I propose that this money be used for our tours and the purchase of food and souvenirs." Of course, Allen will not monopolize all the gold coins.
Without this money, Alan would be ashamed to buy local specialties to eat and drink while everyone was eating the sandwiches made by Mrs. Weasley.
In this way, the quality of Allen's travel in Egypt can also be guaranteed, so he doesn't have to be greedy for all kinds of local delicacies.
It's very dry outside, and the heat is unbearable.
It's hard to believe that there was a heavy rain here last night, just like the Muggles knew nothing about the big battle in the Nile last night.
Pyramids are the mausoleums of the emperors (Pharaohs) of ancient Egypt and one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
The most amazing thing about the pyramid is that it is made of stones weighing a thousand tons, and there is no adhesive between the stones, and it is built only by the overlapping and occlusal of the stones.
Muggles thought it was incredible in ancient times, so there are different opinions on the construction of the pyramid.
Some think it was built with the blood and tears of the ancient Egyptians, while others think it was built by aliens.
How the pyramids were built is not a secret to shamans.
The wizards in ancient Egypt were very resourceful and thoughtful.
They serve those in power, and at the same time use the power of the whole country to experiment with their own magic.
Standing in front of the pyramid, Alan looked up at the gleaming pyramid in the desert, imagining the mighty demeanor of the ancient wizard.
"If you didn't insist on coming here, I wouldn't come here to eat sand!" A woman in her thirties in a white dress said with disdain, attracting the surprised eyes of the surrounding tourists.
"What's so interesting about a tomb made of piles of stones?" The woman stared back one by one without showing any weakness.
"Ignorant Muggle!" George was very unwilling to be stared at.
Allen noticed that his wand under the sunscreen moved, and he was curious, so he couldn't help walking over, and asked in a low voice, "What spell did you cast?"
Nothing, it just makes it easier for Muggles to be unlucky. ’ George and Fred winked.
"Be careful, Mr. Weasley is committed to Muggle protection, if you know your actions..." Allen gave them a self-seeking look.
"Come here, follow me." Bill took some water and food from the car and distributed them to everyone.
"This is the entrance for Muggles to visit, and we wizards have another passage." Bill explained.
Everyone followed Bill and walked into a hidden path behind the pyramid.
"There's a spell to keep Muggles away, and Muggles won't go in here." Bill showed a visitor's permit to the guard in blue uniform.
"Now, let's keep up, okay? Don't run around. The tunnel inside is indeed like a maze, and it's easy to get lost." Bill warned with a serious expression.
Allen felt that his words were obviously addressed to the twin brothers.
"Don't worry, I'll watch them," said Percy.
Fred and George were grimacing playfully.
Allen felt that if Percy hadn't said that, the twin brothers might still follow the peloton.
Now, it was hard to say what they would do to Percy.
after a while,
A group of people entered the stone chamber through the small square entrance.
Allen hunched over and followed them through a narrow tunnel that seemed to gradually slope downward.
Bill led the way, his wand in his hand illuminating the path beneath his feet.
The floor of the pyramid is soft with a lot of sand on it. The air was cold and damp.
"The walls are made of granite," said Mr. Weasley, pausing to run his hand over the low ceiling. "All the tunnels are made of limestone."
This movement seemed to be contagious, everyone couldn't help but touch the top plate with their hands, and so did Alan.
A burst of energy entered Allen's body, and Allen was stunned for a moment, and a system voice sounded in his mind: "Sudden mission: save the trapped soul, and the time limit is one month. If the mission is successful, you will be rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery. "
Fortunately, the time limit is one month, which happens to be the time that Allen can stay in Egypt.
Allen feels that it is not urgent yet, and he can complete the task after he is fully prepared, "But the system will arrange the task according to my own time? Why does it seem to be looking for a reason to arrange a task for me every time? The main purpose is to give Do I have some benefits?".
Allen stopped thinking about this kind of doubts about being cheap and acting like a good boy. The top priority is to take a good tour and explore the way to complete the task.
But then, the second system sound rang again: "Sudden task: Find the power stone of the pyramid, and the time limit is one month. If the task is successful, you will be rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery."
It is usually very quiet, and people can almost ignore the system it exists. Why does it feel like a chicken blood when entering the pyramid?
After two missions in a row, there is still no clue, which makes Allen feel a little bit of a sense of crisis.
In just one month, Allen was a little anxious to complete two difficult tasks.
"Bill, have you heard of the 'Pyramid Power Stone'?" Allen walked quickly and rushed to Bill who was at the front, and decided to consult Bill first.
"There is such a legend." Bill glanced at Alan in surprise. Does this little wizard have a wealth of knowledge? He even knows about pyramid energy stones!
"The ancient Egyptian wizards preserved the pharaoh's corpse and made perfect mummies. These mummies can be preserved for thousands of years!" Bill glanced at Allen.
"This is because of the power stone in the pyramid. The mysterious energy of the power stone can quickly dehydrate the corpse and accelerate its mummification, waiting for the day when they can be resurrected."
"This mysterious power is definitely not hearsay. Even Muggles have been verified by scientists." Mr. Arthur Weasley inserted the topic with interest.
"How do you know, Dad?" Bill asked in surprise.
"I did a little homework before I came here." Mr. Weasley smiled and took out a rusty copper Knut.
He handed the coin to Allen: "You can try it. When I go out, Copper Nat may be able to restore its original appearance. This is affected by the power stone."
