When we left the base, it was already close to sunset, and it got dark early in the mountains. At this time, smoke might just be rising from the plains, but stars were already appearing in the mountains.
Stepping on the snow that no one had stepped on for who knows how many years, Li Yuanhong walked towards the five dark pyramids.
The weather in the mountains changed very quickly. When Li Yuanhong came out, the sky was still full of stars, but within twenty minutes of walking, dark clouds began to cover, and strong winds mixed with snowflakes began to hit the earth.
Li Yuanhong then quickened his pace. If he didn't get close enough to feel the pyramid, it would be easy to lose his way in the wind and snow. By then, let alone trying to find out the news, it might be difficult to guarantee his own safety.
Fortunately, Li Yuanhong's equipment was not bad, and his speed was not affected much by the wind and snow, so he arrived at the first pyramid.
Li Yuanhong didn't know which pyramid the portal was in, so Li Yuanhong could only explore the pyramid in front of him first.
The pyramid in front of me has long been tightly covered by ice and snow. It is very difficult to find the entrance. Fortunately, Li Yuanhong is an evolved human being, so it is relatively easy to break through the ice and snow.
Soon Li Yuanhong found the way to climb the tower. Following the snow-covered stairs and braving the wind and snow, Li Yuanhong came to the entrance of the first pyramid.
This entrance is in the center of the pyramid, and the entrance door is very strange. If you look at it from the sky, the closed door looks like closed eyes. Yes, this stone door is long and narrow, not like an ordinary stone door.
Li Yuanhong walked around the stone gate. After finding no special mechanism, he came to the stone gate. The stone gate was covered with ancient patterns. Li Yuanhong didn't know what it meant, so he pushed the stone gate open.
As the stone door opened, the wind and snow on the stone door also shook down. Fortunately, the sound of the wind and snow covered up the sound of the stone door opening. Otherwise, normally, the sound of the door would be heard far away in this empty mountain.
After opening the stone door, Li Yuanhong was stunned. Behind the stone door was a stone wall. There was really a huge eye drawn on the stone wall. The eye was staring directly at the stone door. If Li Yuanhong hadn't been bold, he might have You will be frightened and faint.
When Li Yuanhong saw this eye, he was stunned. He always felt that he had seen this eye style somewhere before. However, Li Yuanhong was not here for archeology, so he didn't think much and started looking for the road inside the pyramid.
Soon Li Yuanhong found a stone staircase on both sides of the stone wall, but one went down and the other went up.
Li Yuanhong chose the upward passage. This stone passage spiraled up and soon came to a stone room. There was a stone platform in the center of the stone room, and there was a stone book on it. What confused Li Yuanhong was that the words in this stone book were a bit strange. Like Oracle, but somewhat different from Oracle.
Li Yuanhong didn't have any research on ancient characters, and he couldn't see any knowledge, so Li Yuanhong put the stone book away and looked carefully at the surrounding murals.
The surrounding murals are somewhat similar to European paintings, all depicting the invasion of alien behemoths. Li Yuanhong took one look and continued upward. There were no obstacles along the way. There were several empty stone rooms in the middle. There was nothing that Li Yuanhong cared about, so Li Yuanhong finally climbed to the top.
When they reached the top floor, Li Yuanhong saw a stone platform with another crystal skull on it. However, the crystal skull was quietly placed in the groove without any movement, which made Li Yuanhong very puzzled.
In the past, as long as the crystal skull was in the groove, a picture would definitely appear on it. There was no picture, and there was only one explanation, that is, there was no energy in this pyramid.
Li Yuanhong then took a flashlight and began to shine it on the surrounding walls. This photo made Li Yuanhong frown.
The first mural showed a whirlpool in the sky, a black hole with huge monsters constantly appearing, and the five pyramids looking so helpless under the huge whirlpool.
The second picture showed a wizard with big ears and a mask, standing in front of a stage, holding a book and chanting. The book Li Yuanhong read was very similar to the stone book he got before. The stone platform in front of the wizard was filled with heads, many human heads, but under the platform, it was covered with runes. The blood flowed into the runes along the gaps in the stone platform, making the entire runes light up. .
Li Yuanhong knew that this second picture should be a sacrificial scene, but the faces of the human heads being sacrificed were not much different from the faces of modern humans. It is important to know that modern humans are said to have evolved from ancient humans hundreds of thousands of years ago. Yes, but this pyramid, according to the information Dr. Bai received before, is hundreds of millions of years old. Humans should not have existed at that time.
Although Li Yuanhong was puzzled, he didn't pay much attention. Li Yuanhong looked at the third picture. The third picture is of four pyramids, emitting light towards the middle pyramid, and the place where the light is emitted is the gate through which Li Yuanhong came in. Moreover, Li Yuanhong discovered that when these pyramid gates were opened, it was as if the pyramids had eyes, and that The eye pattern reminds Li Yuanhong of the omniscient eye pattern in the Egyptian pyramids.
Correspondingly, corresponding gates were opened on the four sides of the central pyramid, which focused the light into the pyramid. At the same time, the central pyramid emitted a beam of light from the top, piercing the portal in the sky.
The fourth painting is a calm night sky, with five pyramids standing in the wind and snow. It is as if the gate of time and space has never appeared in the sky. There are only bones scattered on the ground, which seems to indicate that a tragic battle has occurred here.
After reading these four paintings, Li Yuanhong vaguely understood that this was the place where prehistoric civilization defeated the space-time beast and closed the door of time and space. However, that time it only temporarily defeated the space-time beast and did not completely close the door of time and space. Moreover, It seems that it is not easy to activate these pyramids. First of all, Li Yuanhong cannot read the incantation on the stone book. Secondly, if Li Yuanhong was asked to kill people and perform sacrifices, Li Yuanhong would not be able to do such a cruel thing.
However, through the murals, Li Yuanhong vaguely felt that the portal should be in the middle pyramid.
In order to prevent any mistakes or omissions, Li Yuanhong searched the pyramid below again. The room under the pyramid was full of runes and various pipes. Li Yuanhong felt as if he had entered a science fiction power cabin. Apart from this, Li Yuanhong never found anything of value.
Li Yuanhong didn't waste any time and quickly left the first pyramid and went straight to the central pyramid. At this time, the sky was already a little bright, but the wind and snow were still there, and the wind and snow became even stronger. There was almost no one visible two or three meters away.
This actually covered Li Yuanhong's whereabouts. Li Yuanhong didn't just rely on his eyesight to see things. His true eyes could see one or two hundred meters away even in foggy days.
Just when Li Yuanhong was trudging forward and less than a hundred meters away from the central portal, Li Yuanhong suddenly fell to the ground because just now he faintly saw a group of creatures passing by in the wind and snow. Although I don't know what kind of creature this is, the energy fluctuation is definitely a high-level creature, at least over level 30.
The group of creatures slowly patrolled to one side along the bottom of the pyramid. In the center, the group of creatures met another group of creatures, and then both parties turned around and walked back.
Seeing this, Li Yuanhong frowned. This pyramid was guarded, which meant that he had found the right place, but it also meant that it was very difficult for him to enter the interior of the pyramid to explore. Li Yuanhong did not think that the entire pyramid only had this There must be more patrols patrolling inside.
Li Yuanhong quietly left the pyramid and returned along the original route. He knew which pyramid the portal was in. All that was left was to find a way to raid in advance and occupy the pyramid in one fell swoop.
After walking in the wind and snow for most of the day, Li Yuanhong finally returned to the base. When he was still ten miles away from the base, he encountered a guard leading a search. Seeing the anxious look on the guard's face, Li Yuanhong knew that he was traveling this time. , which made the guards worried, otherwise the guards would not have brought nearly a hundred people to come so far to look for them.
Everyone returned to the base, and Li Yuanhong took the latest satellite picture handed over by Fatty Lu. This picture was taken before the wind and snow. Five pyramids can be clearly seen on it, and there are a large number of skeleton troops patrolling around the central pyramid. . And in the center of the pyramid, at the four gates, you can vaguely see skeletons standing guard at the entrance of the cave. Obviously, this pyramid has been closely guarded by the undead clan.
"Brother Li, what should we do next? Do we want to break in?" the guard asked.
Li Yuanhong also planned to break into the middle pyramid, but if he broke through, it would definitely alarm the undead clan. On the way back, Li Yuanhong was thinking about a plan, that is, at the top of the middle pyramid, there is a channel that shoots the speed of light upward. Maybe he can Use this place to sneak inside the pyramid.
So Li Yuanhong told Fatty Lu and the guards his thoughts.
"Isn't this a bit risky?" Fatty Lu said.
"Well, the fat man is right. We don't know much about that passage. And after so many years, we don't know whether the internal structure of the pyramid has changed. What if something happens inside!" The guard also said Worried.
"I have entered the pyramid next to it. There is no damage or corrosion inside the pyramid. I think the central pyramid should be similar to the other four. After all, the central pyramid bears more human tasks, so the construction quality should be better."
"But we don't know how many skeletons and zombies are inside. It's too risky!" Fatty Lu continued to object.
"No matter what, you have to take risks, and the risk of going straight to Huanglong may be smaller. In addition, don't be idle. I think the leaders of the zombies and skeletons will be here by then, so you still have to be outside. Sniper, don't think your risk is smaller than mine!" Li Yuanhong said with a slight smile.
In this way, the plan to raid the pyramid was decided.
