“Huff—”
The strong wind blew continuously, blowing up the sand on the ground.
The sand hit Lin Ke's robe, making a "da da pa pa" sound.
Lin Ke looked at the sarcophagus and then looked around. He was not afraid of ghosts. He was more worried that some dangerous animals would suddenly appear in the cemetery.
Like a poisonous snake or a scorpion or something.
So, he just held the Sand Blade, constantly turning his body and eyes, constantly checking the situation around him.
Just wait for Ramses to wake up, then...
etc!
Where did Ramses go?
At this moment, Lin Ke suddenly discovered that the scenery outside the cemetery had turned pitch black.
But just now, he saw the torches of the Holy Egyptian Army extending endlessly to the distant hills.
How come it disappeared in just a moment?
Lin Ke smelled danger and immediately noticed the changes in the surrounding environment.
He turned his head suddenly and found that the sarcophagus that was just behind him was gone.
He was the only one left in the center of the cemetery, and the darkness around him surged like a tide, surrounding him tightly.
"Ramses?"
Lin Ke was not panicked. He just lowered his body slightly and called out in a low voice.
But the only response he got was the fading sound of the wind and the rustling of sand.
In his hand, he tightly grasped the Sand Blade that Ramses had given him before. The golden light on the blade flashed quickly a few times, as if that was Ramses responding to his call.
So, Lin Ke's eyes fell on the Sand Blade, and he immediately understood something in his heart.
"I see."
"Okay, then you guide me forward. If the tip of the knife is in the right direction, you flash quickly."
He picked up the Sand Blade and spun his body.
Soon, the Sand Blade flashed rapidly as it pointed toward a narrow path.
"Okay, I understand."
Lin Ke did not hesitate, gripped the Sand Blade tightly, and stepped onto the path.
Even if darkness enveloped him, he was not afraid at all.
Just nervous.
This tension is a state that the body adjusts to when facing danger.
In short, this state can help Lin Ke react faster when encountering danger.
After walking for a while, a huge stone gate appeared in the darkness in front of Lin Ke.
The stone gate was engraved with ancient runes, which actually emitted a slight orange glow when illuminated by the light of the Sand Blade.
But Lin Ke couldn't understand those runes. He just wanted to know where he was sent.
Why do I always feel that this place is dangerous?
Lin Ke continued to look at the runes above, and then he saw a huge object that looked like a stone pillar but not like a stone pillar appear beside him.
What is that?
He looked up and saw a tall monster standing there.
Its body was made of sand and bones, and its eyes were flashing red light, staring into Lin Ke's eyes.
Lin Ke quickly stepped back and then protected his chest with the Sand Blade.
What is this monster?!
"Mortal, this is the entrance to the underworld."
"If you want to pass, you must answer my questions."
The monster slowly made sounds, like a rolling stone learning to speak.
However, Lin Ke was stunned.
No? The underworld?
Am I not dead?
"Ramesses, am I being swept up in the divine power you sensed?"
He knew that the Sand Blade could only reply to him with correct information, which meant that it would only flash when it received the correct information.
Sure enough, the Sand Blade flashed a few times, confirming Lin Ke's idea.
At this time, Lin Ke was no longer extremely cautious about the huge monster in front of him. After all, even the ancient Egyptian gods had to obey his orders.
"What's the problem?"
After hearing this, the monster turned around and faced Lin Ke: "What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?"
Lin Ke was stunned.
This problem may have been a huge problem for the people of ancient Egypt.
But this is not the case for Lin Ke.
He knew that this was the classic "Riddle of the Sphinx".
"people."
Lin Ke answered this question without much thought.
The monster took a step back, and the stone door slowly opened. Lin Ke immediately stepped in.
After passing through the stone gate, a barren desert appeared in front of Lin Ke.
In the desert, countless skeletons and broken weapons are scattered on the ground, making this place look extremely desolate and terrifying.
But Lin Ke didn't care about these. He just continued to use the Sand Blade to find the correct direction.
At this moment, a black mist suddenly rose in the desert.
In the fog, a huge demon slowly appeared. Its body was made of flames and bones, and its eyes were flashing green light. It seemed that it was waiting here for Lin Ke.
Lin Ke took two steps back and responded.
"Mortal, this is the second gate to the underworld."
"If you want to pass, you must answer my questions."
The demon looked at Lin Ke, just like he was doing a routine, just like the stone statue just now.
Lin Ke also put down the Sand Blade in his hand: "Please speak."
The demon's upper and lower jaws began to move mechanically: "This thing devours all birds, beasts, trees, flowers and plants, gnaws steel, eats hard stone, destroys city walls, and can knock down mountains."
"What's this?"
Lin Ke said almost at the same time as the other party: "Time."
