I Became the God of Light

Chapter 317 Pyramid and Curse (Update 4000)

Su Yun shook his head and asked, "When will we set off?"

Emma looked at the time and said, "Let's go now."

Everyone nodded, and after everyone picked a camel, they were ready to set off.

But before they could take a few steps, a middle-aged man's voice came from behind.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Um?

Everyone turned to look in confusion.

I saw Boss Charlie leading a camel filled with supplies and heading here quickly.

"Boss, what are you doing?" Emma glanced at the camel and asked in surprise.

"How about taking the risk and adding me?" Boss Charlie smiled.

"Boss, aren't you going?" Emma was a little confused.

Charlie got on the camel, "I feel that I have lived too comfortably these years, and it's time for me to have an adventure as a man!"

As he said that, he glanced at Carlos and sighed, "I really miss the days when the two of us were adventurous together. This time will be regarded as the last adventure before retirement!"

Carlos was stunned and said in surprise, "You are so rich, and you really want to go to such a dangerous place?"

"Something's not like your character."

"Ahem..." Charlie coughed a few times and said sheepishly, "Isn't this just out of curiosity? I'll just take a look outside. There shouldn't be any danger."

All right……

Carlos and Emma thought it was no wonder, but they also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go!"

The group of people walked towards the empty and daunting desert under the bright golden sunshine.

The sun was shining and there were no clouds in the sky.

Ding bell~ding bell~

A series of ringing bells and the sound of stampedes sounded from time to time as the camels walked.

"This camel shakes so much that I feel like vomiting!" Emma complained.

She glanced at the camel and saw that its mouth was full of saliva, and she felt disgusted.

"Disgusting!"

Charlie smiled disapprovingly, "Contrary to you, I think it's fluffy. Look at how cute it is."

He reached out and rubbed the yellow down on the top of the camel's head.

"You can't tell, boss, you are still a fluffy person." Emma teased.

After speaking, she looked around and discovered something.

She pointed at a grand-looking building in the distance and exclaimed, "That pyramid must be the Pyramid of Khufu, it's really grand!"

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed.

Due to the direction problem, they could just see the pyramid over there from a distance.

The Pyramid of Khufu is the largest pyramid in ancient Egypt. It is 146.59 meters high. Due to weathering over time, 10 meters of the top peeled off. It is now 136.5 meters high, which is equivalent to the height of a 40-story building.

The tower body is made of 2.3 million huge stones, ranging in size from 1.5 tons to 160 tons.

The total weight of the tower is approximately 6.84 million tons, and its scale is the largest among the more than 70 pyramids discovered in Egypt so far.

"It's magnificent." Charlie agreed.

Carlos said curiously, "I heard that there are many rumors about the pyramid. If you know anything, please tell me to relieve your boredom."

Su Yun glanced at him and said, "I do know a little bit."

Everyone's eyes immediately shifted to him.

Su Yun said, "The pyramid is known as one of the seven wonders of ancient times."

"The remainder are the Colossus of Rhodes, the Statue of Zeus in Olympia, the Lighthouse of Pharos, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, and the tomb of King Mautholos."

"These are miraculous buildings. I think even if you don't know them, you must have heard of one or two."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, the other six ancient miracles have been destroyed due to various reasons, and only the Egyptian pyramids remain."

He paused for a moment, "Of course, there are more than these miracle buildings. Now there are several new miracles in the world."

"Let's continue talking about the pyramids." Su Yun returned to the topic.

"According to various evidences, ancient Egypt was not as simple as we imagined. Whether it is the use of astrology or mathematics, even from today's perspective, it is incredible."

He thought for a while and found a few examples, "Just like the three waist stars of Orion in the sky, after calculation, the vertical lines fall exactly on the positions of the three largest pyramids headed by Khufu."

“Even the circumference of the base of the Great Pyramid divided by twice the height of the tower is exactly the famous pi!”

Emma had some doubts and asked, "Why is the pyramid related to Orion?"

Su Yun explained, "Orion is of great significance to the Egyptians. They believe that God lives in Orion, which is where heaven is."

Everyone was stunned.

"What about the mummy?" Emma asked curiously.

Su Yun smiled and said, "The ancient Egyptians were superstitious that the soul is immortal after death."

"They believe that humans are composed of body and soul. Even in the world of the underworld, the deceased still needs his body. As long as this body is kept intact, the soul will not perish."

"If the body decays and is destroyed, the soul will also gradually be lost. The complete destruction of the body means the complete death of the soul."

Su Yun finally said, "So they made mummies, hoping that the soul would always exist, and even tried to resurrect them after death."

Emma listened and suddenly felt a little worried in her heart, and said, "I heard that the pyramids are cursed, and anyone who wants to dig them will encounter bad luck."

Listening to Emma's meaningful words, except for the bodyguards who didn't understand the destination, everyone else understood what she wanted to express.

"I have also heard of the curse. Su Yun said, "According to legend, every pyramid has been cursed, and every pharaoh also has his own protective spell.

"For example, Tutankhamun, the inscription on his tomb contains a chilling text, 'Whoever disturbs the peace of the Pharaoh, the wings of death will fall on his head'."

When Charlie and others heard this, regardless of whether they had heard it before or not, they all felt worried.

"There can't really be a curse, right?" Matt's face was a little stiff.

"Who knows." Su Yun said casually, "But some rumors about the curse have spread very widely."

"The American Medical Monthly has indeed published a report, confirming that among 100 people who have entered the Great Pyramid, the chance of dying from cancer in the next 10 years is as high as 40%."

"People who excavated Tutankhamen's tomb also encountered many accidents."

"I'll just tell you. I don't know if it's true. You can just listen to it." Su Yun said.

"As for the Pharaoh's curse, some locals didn't believe it and thought it was just to scare away tomb robbers. It wasn't until the excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb and a series of encounters that people's views changed."

Su Yun said slowly, "In 1922, a British explorer named Carnarvon and British Egyptian archaeologist Carter led an archaeological team to search for Tutankhamun's tomb."

"Just when the archaeological team discovered the tomb and were exploring inside, they suddenly received a telegram. The Carnarvon explorer who led the exploration of the tomb this time suddenly died of a serious illness."

"It is said that when he died, he kept saying the Pharaoh's name and looked very frightened. The hospital even had an inexplicable power outage at that time, and the power company could not give a reasonable explanation."

Su Yun thought of something and chuckled, "As of now, if I don't have millions of people to accompany me on this matter, I guess the hospital won't be able to survive."

Everyone couldn't help but be speechless. How did this person laugh at such a terrifying thing?

"Keep talking." Boss Charlie couldn't help but asked curiously.

"Shortly after the man died, something even more bizarre happened."

"The guy who was responsible for pushing open the tomb door and finding Tutankhamun soon fell ill with a strange mental disorder, and his death was extremely painful."

"The person who was responsible for compiling the cultural relics in the tomb chose to commit suicide a few years later. I heard that his father also chose to commit suicide a year later."

"The director of the museum in Cairo at the time said that he did not believe in the so-called curse and was directly responsible for directing the workers in the tomb to remove the cultural relics."

"The result was unexpected. The man died of a heart attack within a month."

Su Yun finally said, "In the end, more than 20 people died in mysterious circumstances. Tutankhamen's amulet even escaped to the outside world and killed several people."

"For a long time after that, everyone who entered the Pharaoh's tomb, whether they were explorers or tomb robbers, all died accidentally, either accidentally or contracted diseases."

"Even the guy who untied Tutankhamun's shroud and took X-rays became extremely weak after taking a few X-ray photos and died after a while."

As Su Yun finished speaking, everyone shuddered, and Emma lost her mind and said, "Is there really a curse in the world?"

"There may be a curse, or it may be some kind of germ." Su Yun speculated.

"Hmph!" Professor Luka heard this with disdain on his face, "You are so damned good, can you believe the things spread on the Internet?"

"These things must have scientific basis. When technology develops, the secrets will be unearthed sooner or later."

Speaking of this, his face was full of confidence.

Boss Charlie asked, "Professor Luca, you don't believe in mysterious power?"

"I am a godless person." Professor Luka said lightly.

Although he usually talks about God, it is just a habitual catchphrase. In his heart, he does not believe that there is a god in the world at all.

Emma wiped her sweaty forehead and retorted with a frown.

"Professor, haven't there been rumors about Eastern immortals and priests suspected of being six-winged archangels on the Internet recently? Doesn't this prove that there is mysterious power in this world?"

After hearing what she said, Tam and others thought about it for a moment, their faces couldn't help but be filled with recognition, and they felt that Emma was right.

Charlie and the others couldn't help but have some worries about the next expedition.

When Professor Luka heard this, not only did he not agree, but he sneered and reprimanded, "I told you, can you trust the things on the Internet?"

"Only you young people will believe those false and exaggerated videos. I have seen too many such hypes!"

When those videos first came out, he was indeed shaken, but he soon regained consciousness and at the same time strengthened his mind, believing that they were all false propaganda.

As long as he has not seen it with his own eyes, he will never believe it!

Others on the side were a little surprised when they heard this. Professor Luka's thoughts are too stubborn, right?

"But it looks very real! How could it be fake!" Emma expressed disbelief.

She said, "Their appearance means that there is mysterious power in the world, and gods should also exist!"

"Little girl, you are too young." Professor Luka shook his head and sighed, "Even if what you said is true, how can you prove the existence of God?"

"No matter how you look at those two people, they are very different from gods, right? Even if they really have magical powers, they are only things that are cultivated."

"The most direct evidence is that if there really is a god in this world, according to the description of the power of the gods, our world must have been destroyed long ago. How can we still live the good life now."

Professor Luka said calmly, "So there is no god in the world. Those who have cultivated some skills are called gods by ignorant people."

Listening to Professor Luka's words, everyone looked thoughtful, feeling that what he said made sense.

Maybe the gods are just some powerful people, and there is nothing extraordinary at all. Maybe their current technological weapons can kill gods!

Only those ancient people who were ignorant and had no help from technology could believe in and surrender to God.

Emma opened her mouth, wanting to retort, but she couldn't speak.

What Professor Luka said is correct. They don’t understand the Eastern immortals, but the priest’s guess was that the six-winged archangel came to the world. That was just a guess. Who can prove that God really exists?

Seeing the crowd who somewhat agreed with him, Professor Luka swept away his previous depression and couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile on his face.

Su Yun had a strange expression on his face while listening to their discussion.

However, he didn't say anything. Instead, he sunk his mind into the Godhead space and examined the Godhead carefully.

Su Yun glanced at the blue color appearing at the bottom of his eyes, silently calculated, and thought to himself, "According to calculations, the next promotion should require about two million threads of faith."

"Now there are only 500,000 faith threads, and there is still a shortfall of 1.4 million."

Looking at this data, he couldn't help frowning and thinking seriously.

"The quantity is so different. It is difficult to obtain so many faith threads using ordinary methods."

After thinking for a while, he hesitated slightly, and then a determined look appeared in his eyes.

In order to resist that seventh-level god, he had to advance at least once, so the impact of this attack seemed to be greater.

After talking all the way, everyone rode camels and walked a certain distance. The sun in the sky caused the temperature to change rapidly, making them feel a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Charlie suddenly thought of something and said to everyone, "I almost forgot, I have something for you, stop now!"

Everyone pulled the rope, causing the camel to stop and looked over curiously.
