Egyptian Pyramids

When William arrived at the collapsed building, he expected to see high-ranking officials directing operations from the front lines.

Ideally, it would be drizzling, and the secretary would have an umbrella, but deliberately not use it.

This not only makes them appear extremely anxious, but also means they don't even need to use eye drops; tears appear automatically.

Whether it's just for show or genuine emotion, the publicity is there.

Even if people aren't present, they can still get some work done by using a small excavator and slacking off, even if it's slow.

When Death Eaters attacked the Suez Canal last time, causing a blockage, didn't Egypt simply send an excavator to work hard there?

William never expected that when he arrived at the scene, instead of seeing an excavator, he would see crowds arranging flowers, lighting candles, crying, and taking photos.

There were even some early internet celebrities who filmed videos, intending to post them online to gain clicks.

As for the relevant departments?

They claimed:

Some parts of the structure have expanded and shifted, which could lead to further collapse of the building. For safety reasons, rescue personnel have withdrawn from the scene.

Okay, is this something a human could do?

It's one thing for the Muggle government to act this way, but even the Egyptian Ministry of Magic is doing nothing.

Many people died; they were all wizards who came to participate in this Alchemy conference.

This whole thing is rather strange!

But William did not offer any opinion.

Back in the United States, at least I had a Targaryen identity, which made everything much easier.

Things are different now.

Besides, he wasn't actually attending this so-called Alchemy conference.

He came here... to rob tombs.

Unable to find a hotel to stay in, William declined Mirshat's invitation again and continued with the Gringotts group.

Not long after leaving Cairo, he saw the three majestic pyramids standing tall in the desert.

If we were to conduct a global survey on preconceived notions about Egypt, the first thing that would come to mind would undoubtedly be the pyramids.

The most famous of these is the Giza pyramids complex, located on the Giza Plateau outside Cairo.

These are the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure.

The family relationship also involves three generations living under one roof.

Below the pyramids stands the famous Great Sphinx.

William found it very strange no matter how he looked at it.

Because it doesn't have a nose either.

Wait, why did I say "also"?

The Great Sphinx's nose disappeared a long time ago.

It is said that in 1798, when Napoleon invaded Egypt, his troops used cannons to bombard it.

That's complete nonsense. Napoleon didn't have a nose before he went to Egypt.

Besides, our France emperor was a famous art collector, and he took many things to Paris intact.

How could I possibly damage the Great Sphinx!

However, this noseless statue is also known as the beauty of imperfection, just like the Armless Venus.

It even inspired countless artists in later generations to create and imitate performance art.

Take Voldemort, for example... He had plastic surgery back then, and William wouldn't believe it if he said it wasn't for this thing.

However, this was not the destination of this trip. Although the Giza pyramids are amazing, they have all been thoroughly studied.

In his previous life, William could analyze the pyramids in great detail, even in a random book about Unsolved Mysteries of the World sold at a roadside stall.

Things like "built by ancient aliens," "energy receiving tower," and "dividing the perimeter by twice the height to get pi"...

She's even older Luna Old Lovegood.

Some experts even claim that it was a 19th-century Western forgery.

Napoleon, with his 30,000-strong expeditionary force, conquered Egypt, captured Malta, fought fiercely against the Mamluks cavalry, suppressed a popular uprising, and finally escaped back to France...

In recent years, these 30,000 men not only waged wars against enemies many times their size, but also forged and built 96 pyramids?

William could already picture his soldiers carrying stones in one hand and wielding guns in the other, braving a hail of bullets and artillery fire as they persevered in building the pyramids.

Is this guy France?

It's even more Godzilla than Transformers!

Most importantly, Western civilization goes to great lengths to help the Middle East and its colonies falsify history... What is its motive?

Why not just fabricate something for yourself?

However, now that he was a wizard, William instantly understood that it was definitely the future Ministry of Magic trying to Confundus Charm.

After all, this was built by ancient Egypt sorcerers and magicians. (No dog head emoji)

So, where is the destination of this trip?

It's Thebes, the capital of ancient Egypt, of course.

As the capital of the Middle Kingdom and the New Kingdom, it was once called the "City of a Hundred Gates" by Homer.

It is home not only to the Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple, but also to the famous Valley of the Kings.

These pharaohs' tombs and temples have been designated as key sites for excavation by Gringotts.

The ruins of Thebes, now located in the area of Luxor and Karnak, astonished the newly ordained wizards when they arrived.

They originally thought their workplace would be in Cairo, or at least some other city.

Townships can barely accept it.

But how did they end up so far from human habitation, deep in the desert?

Many people had just arrived and were already thinking of grabbing their buckets and running away.

Soon, a wizard came out to greet them.

He was tall, with distinctive red hair and a long ponytail.

She wore an earring with Anubis pendant hanging from it.

He's an old acquaintance!

"Bill, it's been a long time," William greeted Hermione.

That's right, the person who came was Bill Weasley.

Bill is the eldest and most outstanding child in the Weasley family.

To put it simply, Percy was a top student at school; he was not only the president of the boys' club, but also earned twelve certificates.

But this is not surprising, after all, Bill has done what he has done.

Percy also learned from Bill in every way, taking him as his role model.

The only thing that disappointed Percy was that his outstanding older brother, unexpectedly, didn't go to the Ministry of Magic after graduation.

Instead, he chose to become Curse-Breaker at Gringotts.

This made Percy feel that his older brother had fallen into depravity.

Such a carefree personality deeply influenced his younger brother, Charlie.

This is also Charlie didn't play in the professional Quidditch league after graduation, but instead went to Romania to study fire dragons.

When he made this decision, the first person in the Weasley family to truly support Charlie was his eldest Bill.

The twins were also influenced by Bill, namely... the older brother never studied very hard.

The problem is, Bill is number one even without studying, but the twins aren't.

As for Ron... he wasn't affected much.

Bill was only one year old when he enrolled in school.

From then on, my older brother would only stay at home for a few days during the summer vacation each year, so he didn't have the chance to be influenced by culture.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, William delivered Mrs. Weasley's letter to Bill.

He was speechless after reading it.

It's that time of pressure again, urging him to hurry home and go on blind dates.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Bill has been studying the pyramids in Egypt for almost ten years.

The working conditions here are terrible, and there are absolutely no girls around.

Over the years, apart from that year's Quidditch World Cup when I went home for a short trip, and then immediately returned to Egypt.

This is also one of the reasons why Mrs. Weasley Dumbledore.

Since Arya Grindelwald went to Egypt, she needs someone to keep an eye on things here.

Bill is ostensibly Curse-Breaker, but secretly he's also acting as a spy for Dumbledore and William.

"William, I saw the news. That war was fought beautifully," Bill said enthusiastically after putting away the letter.

"Isn't Professor Dumbledore here?"

"He can't come; United Kingdom needs someone to stay there and keep watch," William explained.

Since the start of the war, he and the headmaster had never left United Kingdom at the same time.

As long as one person is present, Voldemort can be effectively restrained.

"So what's the purpose of this sudden trip to Egypt?" Bill asked curiously. "Is it to deal with Arya Grindelwald?"

He's been monitoring us for years, and now he really wants to go back home to participate in the Wizarding War.

"No, we're here to help the Gringotts Goblin break the magic within the temple," William said.

"In exchange, they will support us in this war."

That's obviously just an excuse.

At this stage of the war, Gringotts ' help is completely unnecessary.

But since Harry has been captured, William needs to enter the Egypt temple and find the entrance to the Land of Death.

And coincidentally, the Goblin also needed to go inside.

William used this as leverage, ostensibly to help them and gain support for the war, but in reality, he was using it to pave the way for his own future.

That's incredibly cunning!
