American comics: Launching a dimensional war at the beginning

A huge cobra statue stands tall, with two equally huge torches burning in its eyes, bringing a faint light to this dark world where even the brilliance of the sun god Ra cannot reach it.

This royal tomb in the Valley of the Kings is extremely luxurious. Under the light of the fire, the ancient Egyptian murals on the walls reveal its history.

The brightly colored murals appear extremely vivid in the swaying flames. The guardians on the tombs on the murals are shaking strangely, as if they are about to step off the murals.

Any living person who breaks into the tomb and disturbs the Pharaoh's rest will be cursed.

In the tomb of the unknown pharaoh, warnings like this can be seen everywhere, so that the soul of the deceased can sleep peacefully.

Muto Shuangroku held a torch and led Professor Elson Bute along the passage leading to the inner chamber, but no matter how the two of them walked forward, they always felt that this road seemed to be endless.

The geographical location of the Valley of the Kings determines the scale of the mausoleum construction, and it cannot be a huge and wide mausoleum.

If you want to build the Valley of the Kings, you must first dig a hole in the cliff, and then start the long construction journey.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to build a mausoleum as majestic as the pyramids of the past due to the geographical conditions and conditions of the Valley of the Kings.

No matter how much manpower and material resources are spent, the area and space of the Valley of the Kings is only so much. It contains more than one mausoleum, and the space of each mausoleum is also limited, so the scale becomes small. A lot.

But the space of the royal tomb in front of them has obviously subverted people's ordinary cognition.

This king's tomb seems to have hollowed out the entire mountain. When you look up and stare carefully, you can't see the top at all. When you lower your head and look down at the dark everything, you can feel the wind blowing up from below. Just like the dark abyss in the deep sea, it seems to be leading to the end of the world.

"Shuangliu, this is truly the tomb of the unknown Pharaoh. The scale is indeed different from that of ordinary Pharaohs."

"You must know that except for monarchs who have committed huge crimes, there are very few monarchs who do not even have the opportunity to leave their names..."

Professor Elson Bute looked at the royal tomb in front of him that seemed to be built on the bottomless abyss. He did not care at all about the possible risks that he and Muto Sugoroku might face in an unknown environment.

Instead, he looked at everything in front of him with excitement, as if he was preparing to engrave everything in front of him deeply in his mind, and he kept sharing his professional knowledge with Muto Shuangroku.

Different from the excitement and excitement of Professor Elson Bute, Muto Sugoroku had an inexplicable look of nostalgia on his face.

Generally speaking, the two of them had a smooth journey along the way and encountered no difficulties at all. It was as if the royal tomb had opened its door to them, allowing them to move around as they pleased.

··············································· ·····

On the other side, this royal tomb belonging to the Eighteenth Dynasty of ancient Egypt once again welcomed a new "guest".

It's just that the "guests" this time are not easy to deal with. When evil guests come to the door, the king's tomb and the guardian behind it naturally have other ways to deal with them.

Wadiye is a wily tomb robber. He knows that the tomb-guarding clan is powerful, and he will definitely not be able to lead the charge stupidly.

Therefore, Wadiye sent a group of "guinea pigs" in and asked them to inquire about the situation in the king's tomb for him.

You must know that the real Valley of the Royal Family’s Sleep is not in the surface world. The Valley of the Royal Family’s Sleep hidden in the inner world is the place Wadiye wants to find.

What Vadier needs to do now is to wait patiently for Muto Sugoroku and Professor Elson Bute to successfully open the real door, and then take the opportunity to enter the real valley where the royal family sleeps.

And now in the king's tomb, a group of poor "white mice" are marching into the depths in an orderly manner, holding torches and lights in their hands.

I saw this group of people holding weapons in their hands and dressed in full armor.

These "little white mice" have walked all the way until now, and the royal tomb has been silent. The only sound they can hear is the shallow footsteps of walking, which is slowly echoing in the tomb.

The group of people walked forward, and suddenly, the brightness of the light changed, and the field of vision in front suddenly became much wider.

At this time, the leader Jim realized that they had come to a stone door, and there was a blank slate next to the stone door, but there was no writing on it.

"Go, pry open this stone door!"

Jim gave an order, and several tomb robbers with special tools walked up to the stone door. Using the tools with both hands, they began to pry up the heavy stone door.

"Duang!"

With a loud noise and after a lot of trouble, the stone door was finally pried open, and the scene inside was revealed to everyone.

Jim saw the stone door being opened and filed in with his men, completely unaware that the blank slate had undergone wonderful changes the moment they entered.

"The villains who accidentally entered the tomb of the Pharaoh should be punished by darkness!"

A line of words composed of ancient Egyptian characters slowly appeared on the blank slate.

"So, what exactly is this painting? It looks like a person, but his hands and feet are shackled. It doesn't meet the specifications of a royal tomb at all!"

"You have to know that I have never seen gods like this painted on murals so many times before?"

Among the team, a tomb robber with the most profound education and knowledge who was responsible for interpreting ancient Egyptian texts was looking at the strange murals with confusion.

The murals on the tombs of Egyptian pharaohs generally depict the various achievements of the tomb owner during his lifetime. In order to express the identity of the king and the son of the god and highlight the supreme ruling power of the pharaoh, the attendants on the murals usually use gods. The messenger replaced him.

The most favorite messenger painted on murals by the ancient Egyptians was Anubis, the messenger of death.

Although there are also portraits of these gods in this royal tomb, there are many more confusing things in those portraits.

The thing that puzzled him the most was the floor beneath his feet, which was painted with a handcuffed man.

The lines of this floor are very simple, and there is no color except for the uneven texture. The only distinctive thing is probably his ferocious expression, which gives people the feeling that he is being watched by something.

Although these tomb robbers are experienced veterans who have followed Wadiye, in such a depressing environment, it is naturally impossible to face this ferocious-looking figure calmly.

"Dige, you have to know that the owner of this tomb is the legendary unknown Pharaoh. It is said that the Pharaoh returned from the underworld. It is not surprising that the layout of his tomb is different from the tombs of other Pharaohs."

"And the boss told us clearly when we came here that the pharaohs and priests of that period of the ancient Egyptian dynasty could use magical powers."

"Under this premise, if you want to add some other mysterious power to your tomb, it is naturally not impossible."

"And we've wasted too much time. It's time to move forward!"

Although Jim with the torch can move forward beyond Dig in front of him, the width of the corridor they are currently on is really limited.

However, after the opponent squatted down, there was almost no gap left. It was almost impossible to walk past without touching the walls on both sides. That's why Jim, who was blocked, urged Digg to leave quickly.

In order not to trigger the mechanism that was placed somewhere, they were extremely careful when walking after entering.

Although Jim was a little curious about the legendary Tomb of the Unknown Pharaoh, he would not touch the murals on the walls or step on the suspicious-looking floors.

Therefore, they will not step on this kind of floor with carved patterns. They must know that generally anything that looks special represents a trap.

It's a pity that Dige is good at everything, but he is very obsessed with cultural relics, regardless of the occasion.

Had it not been for the fact that Digg was someone whom the boss Wadiye valued, appreciating his knowledge and rich experience.

If Jim had seen Digger's behavior outside, he might have been tempted to teach him a lesson.

"Okay, let's go right away. I'm just a little curious about what this carving is and why each one looks a little different."

And when Dige recalled it carefully, if his memory was correct, these carvings were all connected together like a lifelike animation, and the carving was still a walking person.

There is a figure carved on those stone slabs, the limbs of the body are elongated, the hands are raised forward, and the waist is slightly bent.

Suddenly, the original walking posture changed to standing quietly, which looked extremely strange.

I saw that this man's head was tied up with a bandage full of spikes, and the only thing that could be seen clearly on the blurry face seemed to be the mouth that was not bound by anything.

A big mouth stretched infinitely, and the smile looked extremely ferocious under the light of the fire, just like the slit girl in the island country's legend.

The size of the stone slab and the exquisiteness of the carvings far exceed those of other royal tombs we have visited before. The figures on the stone slab seem to have really come out of the cave, and are so lifelike that it will send chills down your back.

"This is not a stone statue. Why should they be carved exactly the same?"

Dige muttered something in his mouth. He was not a professional tomb robber. In his opinion, he was still a protector of cultural relics. What he did was also a good thing, because he could bring the dark cultural relics underground to the world.

As for the floor with a ferocious expression carved on it, as long as they don't step on it and trigger some mechanism, that's fine.

"By the way, have you noticed something? Look back and see if the last stone slab is still there?"

"You must know that although we saw that floor along the way, after we walked through it, except for the stone road in front, there was no trace of that floor behind us."

To put it simply, those floors have all disappeared, and there is no trace of disappearance at all.

""

"This, this is not right!"

After a period of terrible silence, a man in the team pointed to the stone slab at his feet that was obviously different from other floors, and said with an incredulous expression on his face.

The leader Jim also noticed the changes in the expressions of his companions, and was thinking about this weird thing in his heart. It couldn't be so evil, right?

"hu! hu! hu!"

A gust of cold wind blew by, and a man who was already terrified all over his body slowly turned his head, and then moved his eyes to the floor.

At this moment, an eerie voice slowly came out in their ears.

"My name is the guide of the underworld. You foolish and rude person who broke into the holy realm, accept the judgment from the underworld!"

"The left side of the scale is my loyalty, and the right side of the scale is your courage!"

"Throw the dice representing fate. When the dice numbers are odd or even, the scales will tilt to the left and right respectively."

"And when one of the scales touches the ground, darkness will swallow your soul. Only those who pass the trial will be qualified to reach the other side!"

After the voice explained the rules, a dark hole appeared on a stone slab, and a golden scale engraved with the Eye of Horus emerged from it.

This golden scale seems to be made of gold. Even in such a dark king's tomb, it still shines brightly.

The surrounding stone wall covered with words made a subtle rumble again, and a stone brick was seen sinking in backwards. Soon, a bronze dice engraved with numbers and strange patterns rolled into the group of people. feet.

"This, is this a dice?"

"Do you want us to play a dice game?"

Seeing this kind of game rules in a tomb, even the experienced Jim couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He was surprised by the appearance of the dice.

The moment Dige on the side saw the dice, he felt as if he had seen an illusion of a ball.

This die is different from what they usually see, because this die has sixteen sides, fourteen of which are engraved with numbers from one to fourteen in ancient Egyptian, while the remaining two sides are Drawn with the Eye of Horus and a triangle.

So, this means throwing into the Eye of Horus and the triangular face, this group of tomb robbers can survive.

Dige, with a confused look in his eyes, looked at the dice that rolled to his feet, and involuntarily bent down to pick up the dice, wanting to see what it was.

"Don't pick it up -"

Jim, who was about to warn Digger not to touch him, finally took a step slower. Digger's movements seemed to signal the start of a game.

The moment Dige picked up the dice, the stone slab that was originally just a carved mural glowed with a dim purple light, and then the person inside the stone slab walked out of the stone slab at a very slow speed visible to the naked eye.

"This, this is a monster!!"

Seeing the strange scene in front of them, the tomb robbers shot richly, hoping to eliminate the monster coming out of the mural.

Although this group of tomb robbers had explored many royal tombs and heard about the curse from the ancient Pharaoh, they never thought that they would actually encounter this kind of monster and be actually cursed by the Pharaoh. .

It can only be said that people can’t walk by the river without getting their shoes wet!

And just when they resisted, the dark game had already begun! !
