Chapter 1421: False and Real
Another team member also said helplessly with a bitter face, and Steve nodded in agreement, and even took out the artifact that he asked Director Tawfik to make a one-to-one replica.
"Senior, look, this is the replica we asked the curator for help. For safety reasons, the curator gave us. Let's compare it!"
Nie Yao took the replica of the cultural relic handed to her by Steve and found that it was made very delicately. It must be that when Li Jinxing donated the heirloom to them, Director Taofik began to lead the staff to start the reproduction of this cultural relic!
Almost every detail has been taken into consideration, and if they are put together like this, they can even be mistaken for the real thing!
Nie Yao asked Steve to put the replica away first, and then began the on-site survey and testing work...
Half a day passed, and apart from confirming that the stone walls of this secret room were thicker and the density was several times higher than those of other secret rooms, no other discoveries were made!
There was no hidden pattern. They had tried all the ways to find hidden chambers in the Valley of the Kings or other temples in Egypt before, but nothing worked!
The stone walls everywhere were very flat, without even a single crack...
"If we can't open it here, should we try extraordinary measures?" someone suggested, and Steve immediately shook his head in denial.
"No, if we forcefully blow it up, won't we damage the artifacts inside? Absolutely not!"
Nie Yao frowned slightly, nodded, and said solemnly, "This approach won't work. Since it's a secret room, there must be a mechanism. Perhaps we just missed some clues..."
She thought for a moment, then asked Steve, "By the way, besides this secret room, what about other places in the underground palace? Have you continued exploring?"
"Other archaeological teams have explored several stone chambers and made some discoveries, but none as astonishing as the armory you personally discovered earlier!"
Steve reported honestly.
Nie Yao nodded slightly and smiled at Steve, "How about this, there's no need for everyone to stay in front of this secret room, at a loss as to what to do. Let's go somewhere else first. Maybe there will be some new ideas!"
After she said this, other members of the archaeological team also expressed their agreement.
Nie Yao reassigned the teams, making them four people in a team, heading in two different directions...
Nie Yao originally wanted Steve to go to another team, but Steve was determined to follow Nie Yao, so Nie Yao had to give up.
Soon, she took Steve and two others and continued walking along the path of the underground palace to find other stone chambers first!
Not long after they walked, they heard the sound of flowing water again. They immediately quickened their pace and found a long stream flowing underground. They didn't know where it came from, but it made a gurgling sound!
"Senior, we also found flowing water in the underground palace last time, but it doesn't seem to be this one..." Steve lowered his head, looked at the undercurrent carefully, and said hesitantly.
Nie Yao pulled out the high-definition photos she had taken earlier from her bag, compared them one by one, nodded, and said solemnly, "It's definitely not the same one!"
"So, there are actually two streams in this underground palace?" Steve looked at Nie Yao in surprise, shaking his head in disbelief. "How was this built? How can the underground palace remain stable for long? And this place is obviously not far from the Valley of the Kings, and the wind and sand are very strong. How can such flowing water be brought out from underground?"
