Afterwards, with Na Jiduo's explanation of the murals, they gained a general understanding of the pyramid.

"The owner of this pyramid was a great worshipper of the Sun God Ra, and there are murals of him everywhere."

Na Jiduo exclaimed, "Judging from the murals, this pyramid was built by a Pharaoh who seemed to want to use it to perform rituals and borrow the power of Ra to resurrect himself."

"It probably didn't work, right?" Li Sha said with amusement. "No one can be resurrected, let alone with the power of a god..."

Qiao Fanni and the others beside him nodded in agreement, though they themselves did not believe it.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Na Jiduo shook his head, "How would I know? We'll only find out when we go deeper into the area."

As they were talking, they arrived at a large palace with a passageway. The palace was filled with murals and mysterious symbols, and there were also some mummies wrapped in bandages.

However, these mummies do not look like humans; they look more like animals.

"That's disgusting," Li Sha complained.

At this moment.

"Is that God of Death Anubis?"

In the crowd, Norbert pointed curiously ahead.

There stood a statue several meters tall, with a wolf's head and a human body.

Everyone turned around and saw that it did indeed appear to be a statue of Anubis.

"It's quite exquisite, isn't it?"

Li Sha's eyes lit up.

Just as they were laughing and about to walk over and take a closer look, their laughter soon faded.

Suddenly, the seven animal mummies lying on the ground not far away came to life.

They got up one by one.

"They're alive?!"

"God!"

Li Sha and the others were shocked and incredulous when they saw these mummies that looked like both dogs and wolves.

Bang bang bang bang!

Qiao Fanni reacted the fastest, immediately drawing his gun and firing, while shouting, "Run! Run!"

With that, he took the lead and ran towards the palace corridor.

Seeing this, the others drew their guns and fired while hurriedly following.

Unfortunately, due to their slow reaction and the fact that these wolf mummies seemed impervious to guns, three people were tackled to the ground in less than ten seconds.

"Ah..."

Hearing the screams and the sounds of gnawing behind them, Li Sha and the others who were running felt a chill run down their spines.

"How could such a strange thing exist in this place?"

"Aren't they all just legends?"

"A mummy, is this for real?"

Li Sha exclaimed in disbelief.

As she spoke, she dared not stop, because four wolf mummies were still chasing behind her.

As they fled, the three screams from the previous palace disappeared, and Su Yao also drifted here.

Upon arriving, he and Venom glanced at the wolf mummy gnawing on three corpses.

At that moment, sensing his arrival, the three wolf mummies turned their heads sharply, baring their teeth, seemingly preparing to attack instinctively.

Seeing this, Venom also bared his teeth, eager to try, and said, "Su, leave it to me, it's been a long time since I've done anything..."

However, just as he was about to make his move, when the three wolf mummies got within a certain distance, they seemed to sense something and hurriedly lay down on the ground.

"What's going on?" Venom stared in disbelief at the three wolf mummies who had been baring their teeth one second and were now behaving respectfully the next.

Su Yao, who was standing to the side, also looked somewhat surprised. After thinking for a moment, he tentatively said, "Come here."

Sure enough, the next second, the three wolf mummies stood up, walked up to him, and looked like they were at his beck and call.

Looking at the three obedient wolf mummies, Su Yao's eyes widened in surprise, and he seemed to be deep in thought.

Soon, he had a rough guess in his mind.

These three wolf mummies probably sensed his aura, which is why they were so respectful.

As for why this was the case, Su Yao guessed that the three wolf mummies mistook him for some other being.

Or perhaps they thought he was one of those noble beings, or perhaps he truly was.

As for what constitutes a noble existence...

Gods?

"Does this person think I'm some kind of Egypt god?" Su Yao wondered with some surprise.

This guess is the most likely.

After all, as gods, their auras do have similarities, not to mention that the origins of each pantheon are actually quite similar.

With that in mind, he paid little attention to the three little gadgets.

To him, the three wolf mummies only served to trigger his obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness; even if he stood still and let them bite him, they couldn't break his skin.

The next second, Su Yao moved and floated in the direction where Li Sha and the others had fled.

Seeing him leave, the three wolf mummies hesitated for a moment, but eventually returned to the three corpses and began to gnaw on them.

As the beast gnawed, blood flowed continuously, gradually seeping into the ground, its destination unknown.

In the end, the three corpses withered rapidly, turning into three skeletons.

In the corridor.

As Su Yao floated along, he saw five more corpses, with small black insects crawling on their bodies.

Upon noticing his arrival, the little black insects first stirred, then quickly retreated in fright, not daring to block his path.

As he continued forward, he saw two more corpses, until he drifted past an area where he saw no more corpses.

Those people seem to have reached the core area of the pyramid?

A little over a hundred meters ahead, Sally and the others were panting, their faces filled with fear.

It took them a while to calm down from their fear and have time to look around at their surroundings.

Then they were immediately drawn to the center of the palace.

In the center of the palace stood a golden platform, surrounded by skeletons, and on the platform lay a corpse.

"Gold?"

From the mouths of the nine survivors, a series of rapid breaths could be heard.

After a burst of excited shouts, Li Sha's gaze fell upon the golden platform.

"Is this a corpse?"

The corpse on the golden platform wore a golden mask and was covered with gorgeous golden decorations.

A golden longsword was stuck in its heart, which looked somewhat out of place.

Most importantly, this person was not skeletal like the others; he had skin and flesh, as if he had just died.

Without thinking twice, they quickly and cautiously approached.

"Is this the body of that Pharaoh?"

Looking at the glittering gold decorations on the corpse, especially the golden mask, the Golden Longsword stuck in the Pharaoh's chest, and the Golden Ankh Cross cross in his hand, everyone present gasped for breath.

The group exchanged glances, Qiao Fanni quickly said, "Be careful, don't damage these things when you take them."

As he spoke, he immediately began to peel off the gold ornaments from the corpse.

While they were busy, Li Sha, who was in the crowd, was about to reach for something when suddenly her eyes glazed over and she seemed to hear a strange incantation.

Instinctively, she reached out her hand towards the Golden Longsword.

Before Qiao Fanni and the others could react, they pulled it up.
