Of course, the mechanism of this gate was also very advanced for people in the "classical era".
Not to mention these "ancient" civilizations.
Obviously, this should be one of the "masterpieces" of Thoth, the god of wisdom.
"Your Majesty, Holy Pharaoh, please allow us to protect you."
At this time, Anubis, the god of the desert, the Nile River and the god of death, followed Lin Ke into the palace.
But when the door opened and they entered the palace, the two gods sensed a certain aura at the same time.
To be more precise, it is the power of God.
"The power of Osiris, the god of the underworld, seems to have increased."
"Indeed."
Even Ramses' golden eyes flickered, which represented his affirmation of the words of Anubis, the god of death.
Looking at the other door inside, Lin Ke immediately realized that if he could continue to open the next door, the power of Osiris, the god of the underworld, would be strengthened again.
In short, it means speeding up his "awakening" process.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, this is the second door."
Anubis, the god of death, said this, while the god of the desert and the Nile stepped forward and gently extended his palm.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, I feel that this gate is infused with divine power."
“No brute force, and no mistakes.”
"Otherwise, the power of the Supreme God will pour out."
As Ramses spoke, the golden light in his eyes flickered slowly.
He turned his head and looked at Lin Ke. Although he didn't say anything, Lin Ke could feel that he wanted him to choose to "retreat".
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, opening the gate has accelerated the awakening of Osiris, the God of the Underworld."
"To ensure your safety, I and the God of the Desert and the Nile will be there to protect you."
After hearing the words of Anubis, the god of death, Lin Ke nodded slightly.
He hadn't thought about retreating.
However, he was more afraid that the power of the Supreme God would indeed cause harm to himself and the two gods.
But the most important thing is that Lin Ke needs to first confirm whether this is a "puzzle" that he can solve.
At this time, he took two steps forward.
The style of the gate is completely different from before.
There is a unique device embedded in the center of this door here.
It looks like a slab of stone.
And on the stone slab, there is a nine-square grid carved.
Each grid is inlaid with different gemstones.
The middle grid is empty, and the surrounding grids are filled with eight kinds of gems, including ruby, amethyst, turquoise, etc.
"What formation is this?"
"I have been in this underworld for tens of thousands of years, but I had no idea that there was such a device in the Palace of Hades."
Of course, if you look at it directly, it will indeed make people feel a little confused.
But Lin Ke observed carefully at this time, and he soon discovered that there was a group of hieroglyphic numbers engraved next to each gem.
These numbers are represented by different symbols.
The symbol for "1" is a vertical bar.
"10" is a U-bend.
As for the numbers within "1-10", they are represented by the same number of vertical lines.
And around the nine-square grid, there is something similar to an inscription.
"When the essence of all directions returns, the vacancy in the center will be filled."
"Day and night alternate, life goes round and round."
"Following the guidance of the gods, make sure that the number of sun disks in each row and column is the same."
Lin Ke took a closer look and found that there were even smaller instructions engraved under each grid.
The grid in the upper right corner is engraved with a rising sun pattern.
The grid in the lower right corner shows a stack of grain.
The grid in the lower left corner is a setting sun.
The grid in the upper left corner has a boat going upstream.
The two gods were staring at the numerous elements but were unable to utter a word.
They don't understand what these things and factors actually represent.
I don't even understand what I should do.
Lin Ke picked up a gem from the side and found that there was also a number mark on the back.
Clearly, these numbers seem to mean something.
But looking at the picture, it seems that the numbers are not placed in the corresponding positions.
It seems necessary to rearrange the gems according to these clues until the requirements of the inscription are met.
But how to do it?
Lin Ke looked at the pattern again, but he soon discovered that if he eliminated those abstract patterns, he would find something very familiar to him.
Yes, this is...
Sudoku game!
The so-called Sudoku game is a logic game.
Simply put, you need to fill in numbers in a grid.
For example, a grid table contains 81 small grids.
All Lin Ke has to do is fill in the numbers in this big grid, but there are a few rules:
First, there are 9 horizontal squares in each row, and the numbers cannot be repeated.
Second, the numbers in each column of 9 vertical squares cannot be repeated.
Third, the large grid is divided into 9 small grids, and the numbers in these 9 small grids are not allowed to be repeated.
That is to say, if there is already a number 3 in a line, you cannot write 3 anywhere else in the line.
Similarly, if there is already a number 5 in a small grid, then 5 cannot be written in other positions in this small grid.
At the beginning of the Sudoku game, some of the grids have been filled with numbers and the rest are blank.
Therefore, Lin Ke’s task is to fill in the blanks based on the known numbers and abide by the above three rules.
This is the Sudoku game.
In the pattern that Lin Ke saw now, only the symbols representing numbers had changed.
That is, the numbers are not written in Arabic numerals, but are represented by lines.
1 is to draw one line丨, 2 is to draw two lines丨丨, and 3 is to draw three lines丨丨丨.
And so on, you can get other numbers!
Simply put, the rules of the game are exactly the same, it’s just that the numbers are presented differently.
"I see."
Before the two gods could figure out the situation, they saw Lin Ke had already started to operate.
His hands almost "quickly" placed the gems that were associated with the numbers.
The two gods came to Lin Ke in a panic, ready to respond.
In just one minute, the door opened with a "boom".
"The door is open!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, you are so fast!"
Seeing the way the two gods were looking at him, Lin Ke began to explain.
"It's a Sudoku puzzle, but it uses the ancient Egyptian counting method."
"The numbers in each row and column have to add up to the same number, just like the tables they use when they calculate taxes."
The two gods looked at the chart for a while, then looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Okay... the next door is..."
"Wait, what is this?"
