Just like there was a "seated Buddha in the flesh" on display at the Hungarian Museum of Natural Sciences, which was later determined to have been stolen from China. The wealthy businessman who collected this seated Buddha in the flesh got into big trouble and was in a state of panic.
Strictly speaking, the "Seated Buddha with Flesh Body" is not a top-level national treasure. The real rich people attach great importance to the legitimacy of this world-renowned national treasure. In other words, they would rather buy the funerary objects newly dug out by tomb robbers than directly purchase this national treasure that has been labeled as such in the world.
It takes a lot of effort to steal, but it takes even more effort to sell! This is a perfect description of the world's treasures in the museum. So the protective measures are much simpler than Du Yuqi thought.
…
Soon, Du Yuqi opened the hidden safe and held the "Scepter of Anubis" in his hand. The two previous counterfeits were also made vividly and realistically, but once compared with the real thing, their true colors were immediately exposed.
Why do I say so? It is because the authentic "Scepter of Anubis" has a kind of ancient beauty, a beauty that has been baptized by time and rendered for thousands of years. This beauty is extremely withered and destroyed, but it makes you feel shocked at the first sight... just like the dust accumulated for thousands of years in the ice cracks of the Song Dynasty Ge Kiln, just like the broken arms of the Venus statue, just like the headless and armless statue of the goddess of victory.
"Ah..." As soon as he touched Anubis's scepter, Du Yuqi immediately groaned in unbearable pain! He felt an indescribable power hidden in it! It was like a strong wind in the desert, carrying irresistible heat and yellow sand, sweeping across the world!
Under such a powerful impact, Du Yuqi's body shook. With his current strength, he seemed to be hit by a punch and fell directly to the ground! If you look closely at Du Yuqi at this time, you can find that his eyes have completely lost focus, just like a person who is sleepwalking.
What Du Yuqi saw in front of him was no longer the secret room of the museum, but the endless yellow sand under the scorching sun, the blue sky, and the huge pyramid! This huge building made of 2.3 million huge stones stood there silently, and the Sphinx was lying faithfully beside it.
However, in front of the pyramid, a huge pond was dug out, at least the size of two basketball courts.
There is no clear water in this pond, but blood!
This is a pool of blood!!!
Around the blood pool, a large number of sand scorpions, scarabs, etc. rushed out, greedily sucking the blood soaked in the sand.
Next to the blood pool, there are six sub-pools of different sizes and shapes, corresponding to the six major priesthoods under Anubis: the guardian of cemeteries, the god of mummification, the god of incense, the god of guardian of treasures, the god of judgment, and the god of keeping secrets.
In the six sub-pools, smooth stone channels were built, leading to the blood pool in the middle.
Surrounding the six sub-pools was an endless queue of captives with numb and dull expressions on their faces. They were escorted to the sub-pools and killed. Priests wearing jackal head masks used special tools to drain their blood, which flowed into the sub-pools and finally gathered into the blood pool in the middle through special stone channels.
When the blood pool was full, Anubis's priests would continuously throw various materials into it, including benzoin, stone powder, and even human bones, mud from the Nile River, and eagle feathers. Therefore, even under the scorching sun, the blood pool did not emit any smell of decay, but the water in it was quickly evaporated under the high temperature.
Time passed quickly, day and night went by, and when the blood pool dried up completely, a layer of dark red strange substance was left at the bottom. The closer to the center of the blood pool, the more of this dark red substance there was, and in the end it looked like a grave.
The High Priest Anubis slowly walked down the blood pool, and after coming to the center, he used his hands to peel off the strange dark red substance, and took out the scepter!! He held the scepter, slowly turned around and raised it high. You couldn't see his expression behind the golden jackal mask, but you could feel his joy from his slightly trembling wrist.
Below dozens of steps, there was a huge black crowd, countless in number, extending all the way to the depths of the sea of sand. They cheered loudly, then knelt down, touching the ground deeply with their heads!
…
The illusion before his eyes gradually spread out like ripples, Du Yuqi uttered some meaningless syllables from his throat, and the focus of his eyes gradually returned to normal. Then he quickly pulled himself out of the illusion and realized that he was back in the secret room of the museum.
At this time, a series of stern shouts were heard from outside. Although it was difficult to understand, it was probably something like "You have been surrounded, come out and surrender quickly." The surroundings were filled with white fog and a pungent smell. It was obvious that the internal guards of the consortium had quickly arrived and surrounded the place. Tear gas bullets should have been fired. If Du Yuqi's physique had not been far superior to that of ordinary people, he would have been choked to death.
At the same time, from the chaotic footsteps outside, it can be judged that many people are approaching rapidly with guns in hand and standard tactical movements.
At this moment, the beast claw altar opened automatically and appeared in front of Du Yuqi. A series of prompts came:
"Found a time coordinate item!"
"Found a time coordinate item!"
"Please sacrifice it to the God of Contract quickly! You will receive a rich reward!"
Without saying anything, Du Yuqi stuffed the Scepter of Anubis into the Dimension Ring. What a joke! When I just touched this scepter, I had many illusions and even completely lost control of my body. If something unexpected happens during the sacrifice, wouldn't I be at the mercy of others?
There was no time to lose. Du Yuqi searched around and found a bottle of Coke, which he poured on the clothes next to him to wet them. Then he tore off the wet cloth and wrapped it around his face. This would temporarily eliminate most of the effects of the tear gas. He then grabbed the body of another unconscious guard next to him, held him in front of him, and rushed out.
