"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"How! How could this happen?!"
How did you know this...?
About twenty minutes later, Nan Tong, led by Lin Ke, found a spacious passage.
Although it was spacious, there was no light inside.
Moreover, although there were traces of people coming and going around, it was clear that a long time had passed.
"Just as I expected."
Lin Ke didn't hear Nan Tong's words; at that moment, he was only certain that his previous judgment was correct.
There's definitely something wrong here!
It is already quite unusual for people from many different civilizations to be in the same area.
And there wasn't a single person here.
If you try to connect the information in the civilization panel with this place, it doesn't make any sense at all; it's completely chaotic and disordered.
But Lin Ke quickly realized that the information provided by the civilization panel only told him the other party's location on the map.
This location represents a land location.
As for land, it can be divided into above-ground and underground.
If there is no one on the ground, the answer is obvious.
Nan Tong was even more confused when she heard Lin Ke say "As expected".
"His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh?!"
"You knew about this passage all along?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ke turned her gaze to Nan Tong.
However, before Lin Ke could speak, Nan Tong began to talk to herself.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh! Your insight is indeed superior to that of the gods!"
"You merely came out of this place, yet you managed to find the entrance to the underground?!"
"I just don't know where this passage leads?"
"Leaving aside whether there are people down there or not, it seems to be completely blocked, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
Lin Ke simply nodded in response to Nan Tong's words.
That's right. Now that we've discovered the passage, the most pressing issue is how to get in.
"We can look for another entrance."
After saying this, Lin Ke continued to lead Nan Tong in searching the city.
Later, Lin Ke discovered that the city was indeed strange.
Every now and then, groups of two or three people dressed like civilians would appear on the street, but Lin Ke could tell at a glance that they were not civilians at all, but soldiers.
Lin Ke could only avoid their routes of provocation, and the appearance of these people made Lin Ke increasingly aware that there must be some secret hidden here.
Otherwise, the civilization panel wouldn't show so many people here.
The large number of people indicates the existence of a huge underground space.
Such a vast underground space could not possibly have dedicated personnel patrolling the city.
Even Nan Tong couldn't help but let out a soft gasp of surprise.
"Your Majesty, Pharaoh! This place is truly strange!"
"To ensure your safety, let this old minister escort you away!"
Lin Ke refused again. Finally, they followed a "commoner" from a distance, watching him enter a house and not come out for a long time.
When Lin Ke saw on the map that he had moved to another location, he went to the house. However, Nan Tong was quite startled by Lin Ke's action.
Soon, they entered the passage leading to the underground world.
To be precise, it is one of the channels.
The island is now showing a completely different face than it does during the day.
"Oh...our God."
"Where is this place?"
When Nan Tonggui arrived below with Lin Ke, he looked up and saw only firelight and a temple.
The magnificent temple, with its burning torches, casts a flickering, slightly distorted light on the statues.
Lin Ke, who was visiting this place for the first time, was not afraid at all. He simply hid in the shadows and observed the clothes and appearance of the people nearby.
The clothes worn by each person may seem simple, but they are all made of expensive silk.
Moreover, some people wore masks, while others did not.
Looking at the strange people and scenes around him, Nan Tong felt utterly bewildered.
Lin Ke, however, squinted and continued to observe the information on the civilization panel.
Sure enough, there were quite a few people here, all envoys from different kingdoms and civilizations. As for the others, Lin Ke couldn't guess their identities.
Clearly, it was very strange that people from different kingdoms and civilizations were gathered together on such a large scale.
Furthermore, given the unusual and secluded location of their meeting, Lin Ke could deduce that these people were organized and that they were likely discussing unsavory matters.
"On the surface, everyone on this island is here to attend the World Conference, but perhaps this is their real gathering place?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Tong lowered his voice and said, "His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is absolutely right, that is indeed the case."
"To be honest, I've also noticed that some envoys from certain civilizations frequently visit their residences, behaving in a mysterious manner."
"It seems that many civilizations are probably on very good terms with each other in private."
Then, Lin Ke seized the opportunity and, based on the location information provided by the civilization panel, led Nan Tong forward.
Before long, they arrived at a somewhat dark place.
Lin Ke arrived here based on the location information provided by the Civilization Panel. Based on their movement route, Lin Ke judged that a large number of people would inevitably gather here in a while.
"Your Majesty, what do you need me to do?"
Nan Tong looked at Lin Ke, wanting Lin Ke to give him a precise order.
But Lin Ke simply pointed to another place.
“Look over there, it looks ordinary, right? But look closely at that side door.”
Nan Tong looked in the direction he pointed and saw an inconspicuous small door on the side of the temple, which was slightly open. A black figure quickly slipped inside.
"this?"
Nan Tong saw this and widened his eyes slightly, thinking he was imagining things.
Lin Ke simply nodded.
"Just as I expected."
"Nantong, let's sneak closer and hide behind those rocks over there."
"What we need to do is gather intelligence and then return to Holy Egypt."
The two crouched low and carefully slipped into the shadows.
The surrounding ground was paved with smooth marble, reflecting the flickering firelight.
Nan Tong, like Lin Ke, maintained a similar posture and waited.
Just then, two more people sneakily approached Nan Tong and Lin Ke.
To be precise, it was heading towards the building where Lin Ke and Nan Tong were.
The two men spoke in hushed tones, their words coming out very quickly.
"...We must win their support for our proposal in this vote..."
"...But those stubborn old guys won't change their stance easily unless they're given enough reasons."
"...They've already been promised trade privileges, plus that batch of weapons...they can't possibly refuse, can they?"
