Chapter 108 Giant Pyramid
When they arrived at the bottom of the pyramid, Qin Fu and his party carefully walked down the extremely hot sand dunes.
Their footsteps left a series of deep footprints on the hot sand, as if the soles of their shoes were about to melt.
Looking up, everyone's eyes were filled with shock and wonder.
The height of this pyramid is simply unbelievable. A rough estimate is that it is about 200 stories high.
It is at least six hundred meters tall, towering higher than any known pyramid on earth.
Its appearance is simple and solemn, and every boulder is closely connected, showing the unparalleled architectural skills of ancient craftsmen.
In the sunlight, the surface of the pyramid shines with golden light, like a palace made of pure gold.
Wu Jinqiang's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face.
He murmured to himself:
"Holy shit. Is this ancient technology? It's unbelievable! How did they build such a magnificent building without modern machinery?"
Han Zichu couldn't help but admire:
"How amazing! This pyramid is simply a masterpiece of ancient civilization. I really want to know how they did it."
Everyone nodded in agreement. They were all deeply attracted by the magnificence and mystery of this ancient pyramid.
The pyramid faces the east side where the sun rises in the morning, and rows of neat stone staircases are carefully built.
These stone stairs wind up like giant dragons and reach the top of the pyramid, showing a breathtaking and magnificent sight.
To everyone's surprise, the top of the pyramid was not a sharp triangular stone, but a huge round stone standing on it.
Looking up from the ground, you can clearly see that this round stone is like a carefully carved artificial sun, exuding a mysterious and strange atmosphere.
Mo Yiyan looked at the long stone staircase and couldn't help but sigh in surprise:
“Wouldn’t it be tiring to walk up these 200 floors of stairs?”
Xu Wenting also echoed:
"Who exactly was it and in what era did they build such a miracle?"
Qin Fu, on the other hand, quietly stared at the pyramid in front of him, with complex emotions revealed in his eyes.
It was as if at this moment, some familiar yet vague images were flooding into his memory.
He tried his best to recall, trying to capture those fleeting fragments, but it seemed as if they were separated by a thin layer of fog and could not be completely clear.
At this moment, Wu Jinqiang and everyone looked around the four sides of the pyramid curiously.
They walked around, pointing to the carvings on the wall and the marks on the stones, and talked among themselves.
Suddenly, Wu Jinqiang stopped, his eyes fixed on a boulder under his feet.
He shouted loudly: "Brother Fu, come and take a look. I found something like a mechanism."
After hearing Wu Jinqiang's words, everyone stopped and quickly ran to his location to check.
I saw a round, slightly protruding stone on the boulder at Wu Jinqiang's feet.
This stone looks different and feels like it can be rotated at will.
Right above the protruding stone, there is an exquisite sun figure, which is carefully carved using ancient craftsmanship.
Directly below, an equally exquisite moon figure is carved, echoing the sun figure above.
In addition to these two eye-catching pictures, there are also circles of strange runes carved around the round stone.
The runes look ancient and mysterious. Everyone gathered around, curiously studying the runes and mechanisms on the stones, trying to uncover the secrets behind them.
Mo Yiyan frowned in confusion and asked Qin Fu:
"Qin Fu, what does this mean? Do these have any special meaning?"
After hearing this, Wu Jinqiang responded impatiently:
"You're blind, that's obviously a pattern of the sun and the moon. It's really stupid and stupid."
Mo Yiyan was angered by Wu Jinqiang's words, and he retorted:
"Am I asking about the meaning behind the picture? A smartass thing?"
"Hmph, I'm smarter than you."
At this time, Qin Fu walked forward slowly. He stared at the runes and pictures on the boulder, thought for a moment and then said:
"These runes should represent the scale of time. They may record some important time information or be related to the mechanism of the pyramid."
After Xu Wenting heard Qin Fu's explanation, she became even more curious. She asked Qin Fu doubtfully:
"In other words, if we can turn this round stone to the correct position, is it possible to open some of the pyramid's mechanisms?"
Qin Fu nodded and agreed:
"It is possible. These runes and mechanisms may have been set up by ancient people to protect the pyramid or the secrets within it."
When Han Zichu heard this, her eyes widened in surprise. She asked excitedly:
"Then we want to go into the pyramid? This is so exciting!"
At this moment, there were sudden bursts of dull and strange vibrations under the desert, and there was some huge creature ready to move underground.
Immediately afterwards, the surface of the sand dune under everyone's feet began to appear abnormal. The sand kept beating within a distance of less than half a meter.
"Eh, eh"
When Wu Jinqiang and everyone saw this, they immediately became alert. They quickly assumed a fighting posture and watched the surroundings with vigilance.
At this tense moment, thousands of zombie-like creatures suddenly rushed out from under the dunes.
Some of them resemble humans, some are aliens, and there are even animal carcasses as shriveled as dead branches.
These zombies have lifeless eyes and a rotten smell all over their bodies.
They rush around blindly, as if under some irresistible call.
When Wu Jinqiang saw this, he couldn't help but joked:
"Hey, Jiujiu, look, your kind is here. Just like them, they look as ugly as mummies when they don't have blood to drink."
However, Jiujiu did not understand Wu Jinqiang’s humor. It said angrily:
"Master, can I bite this yellow hair?"
Seeing this, Wu Jinqiang quickly waved his hand and explained:
"La, la, la, can't you just make a joke? Don't be so serious, we still have to deal with these zombies."
At this time, Wu Jinqiang was still trying to ease the tense atmosphere with lighthearted banter.
However, his actions seemed to anger the zombie-like creatures.
They felt an incredible sense of shame and were offended by Wu Jinqiang's words.
The zombies' eyes showed fierce looks, staring at Wu Jinqiang, as if they wanted to bite him into pieces.
They didn't hesitate at all, as if under unified command, they immediately roared and rushed towards Qin Fu and everyone.
The zombies approached everyone at an alarming speed in the blink of an eye, emitting a suffocating stench and rotten atmosphere.
Upon seeing this, everyone in Qin Fu immediately prepared for the sudden battle with clenched fists.
