Chapter 108 Giant Pyramid
When they arrived at the bottom of the pyramid, Qin Fu and his party walked down the extremely hot sand dunes carefully.
Their footsteps left a series of deep footprints in the hot sand, as if the soles of their shoes were about to melt.
Looking up, everyone's eyes were filled with shock and amazement.
The height of this pyramid is simply incredible. A rough estimate is that it is about as high as two hundred stories.
It is at least 600 meters high, taller than any known pyramid on Earth.
Its appearance is simple and solemn, and each huge stone is closely connected, showing the unparalleled architectural skills of ancient craftsmen.
In the sunlight, the surface of the pyramid sparkles with golden light, like a palace made of pure gold.
Wu Jinqiang opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.
He murmured to himself:
"Fuck! This is ancient technology? It's unbelievable! How did they build such a magnificent building without modern machinery?"
Han Zichu couldn't help but admire:
"It's amazing! This pyramid is simply a masterpiece of ancient civilization. I really want to know how they did it all."
Everyone nodded in agreement. They were all deeply attracted by the grandeur and mystery of this ancient pyramid.
The pyramid faces the east where the sun rises in the morning, and has carefully built rows of neat and uniform stone stairs.
These stone steps wind up like a giant dragon, extending to the top of the pyramid, presenting 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 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 exhausting to walk up these 200 flights of stairs?"
Xu Wenting also echoed:
"Who and when did they build this miracle?"
Qin Fu stared quietly at the pyramid in front of him, his eyes revealing a complex emotion.
It seemed that at this moment, some familiar yet vague images surged in his memory.
He tried his best to recall and grasp those fleeting fragments, but it seemed as if there was a thin layer of mist between them and he could not see clearly.
At this moment, Wu Jinqiang and everyone else were curiously looking around the pyramid.
They walked and stopped, pointing at the carvings on the wall and the marks on the stones and talking about it.
Suddenly, Wu Jinqiang stopped, his eyes fixed on a huge rock under his feet.
He shouted loudly: "Brother Fu, come and have 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 huge rock under Wu Jinqiang's feet.
This stone looks different and seems to be able to be rotated at will.
Just above the protruding stone is an exquisite sun pattern, carefully carved using ancient craftsmanship.
Directly below, there is an equally exquisite moon graphic, which echoes the sun graphic above.
In addition to these two eye-catching pictures, there are circles of strange runes carved around the circular stone.
These runes looked ancient and mysterious. People gathered around and curiously studied the runes and the 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:
"Are you blind? That's clearly a pattern of the sun and the moon. You're so cunning and stupid."
Mo Yiyan was angered by Wu Jinqiang's words, and he retorted:
"Am I asking about the meaning behind the picture? Smart-minded stuff?"
"Humph, I'm smarter than you."
At this time, Qin Fu walked forward slowly. He stared at the runes and pictures on the boulder, pondered for a moment and 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 hearing Qin Fu's explanation, Xu Wenting became even more curious. She asked Qin Fu in confusion:
"That is, if we can turn this round stone to the right position, it may be possible to open some mechanism of the pyramid?"
Qin Fu nodded in agreement:
"That's 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:
"So are we going to go into the pyramid? That would be so exciting!"
At this moment, there were sudden dull and strange vibration sounds from under the desert, as if some huge creature was stirring underground.
Immediately afterwards, the surface of the sand dunes under everyone's feet began to show abnormalities, and the sand kept jumping at intervals of less than half a meter.
"Hey, hey"
Seeing this, Wu Jinqiang and his men immediately became alert. They quickly assumed fighting postures and looked around vigilantly.
At this tense moment, thousands of zombie-like creatures suddenly rushed out from under the sand dunes.
Some of them look like humans, some are aliens, and there are even animal corpses that are as shriveled as dead branches.
These zombies have lifeless eyes and exude a rotten smell all over their bodies.
They rushed around blindly, as if they were being summoned by some irresistible force.
Seeing this, Wu Jinqiang couldn't help but teasing:
"Hey, Jiji, look, your kind are here. Just like them, when they have no blood to drink, they look as ugly as mummies. Haha."
However, Jiujiu did not understand Wu Jinqiang's humor. He said angrily:
"Master, can I bite this yellow-haired man?"
Seeing this, Wu Jinqiang waved his hand and explained:
"La, la, la, can't you just take this as 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 light-hearted jokes.
However, his actions seemed to anger the zombie-like creatures.
They felt incredibly humiliated and offended by Wu Jinqiang's words.
The zombies' eyes showed ferocious looks, and they stared at Wu Jinqiang as if they wanted to tear him into pieces.
Without any hesitation, as if they were under unified command, they immediately roared and rushed towards Qin Fu and his group.
The zombies approached the crowd at an alarming speed in the blink of an eye, emitting a suffocating stench and smell of decay.
Upon seeing this, Qin Fu and his men immediately took alert and clenched their fists to prepare for this sudden battle.
