Chapter 308 Eastern Desert (2)

Walking eastward from the entrance of Suez Bay is more than 200 kilometers, it is the most central area of ​​the eastern desert, which is called the death zone. Although the area of ​​this desert is very small, it is a quicksand gathering area of ​​the entire desert. The solid sand under your feet may become a human-eating trap at any time. Even those tomb robbers who regard wealth as their lives are willing to come in here to find treasures. This place can be said to be a virgin land that has not been discovered for a long time. However, a month ago, a few Belgian adventurers suddenly found some exquisite golden scorpions from this desert, and the virgin land began to be captured by a large number of people, and the Barnes family was one of them.

In the eyes of many people, the Barnes family is not a well-known family in Britain. There have never been any famous figures in their family, but in terms of the ancient family, it is rare to compare with their family in Britain and even Europe. The original family record of the Barnes family began in the Alexander era, and then experienced the Roman era, the Dark Age, the Middle Age, etc. The family blood has never been cut off for more than two thousand years. Some people once said that the Barnes family was a family that was attached to God, so they remained in perseverance during the changes of the times. However, the members of the family who truly belonged to the core of the Barnes family all scoffed at this statement, because they all knew that if they really wanted to say nostalgic, it would not be God's turn, and in a sense, God might even be their enemy.

Among the core members of the Barnes family, each generation will have one or two people with a magical ability to find some magical power items that can be used by them from some monuments. These things can prolong their lifespan and increase their power. These people are called guardians by family members, and are also the biggest secret that the Barnes family can continue, so they have always spared no effort to discover the ancient monuments.

Although there are many ancient monuments in the world, there are few monuments that are truly useful to the Barnes family. Their family has continued to this generation, and not many people can truly become the guardians of the family. The last guardian of the family is over four hundred years old. The power that extends his lifespan is still from the ancient Inca Kingdom, but over the years his power has gradually weakened and people are getting older.

Kevin Barnes was the only person in the Barnes family with that kind of ability, and for this reason, the Barnes family decided to help him get the power that made him a qualified guardian. So they formed several expeditions and went deep into Egypt to find the possible monuments, and finally they were happy that Kevin felt that there seemed to be a force in the eastern desert that could help him.

The Barnes family organized an expedition to go deep into the land of death to dig out the monuments. Fortunately, those who were afraid of talking about it did not appear. But what was not good was that after entering the death zone, Kevin began to have a fever and was unconscious, and often spoke some languages ​​that he had never heard before in a coma. This situation was considered a good phenomenon by the people of the Barnes family, so based on the degree of Kevin's fever, he found a temple site that was being excavated.

After half a month of excavation and cleaning, the roof of a temple appeared in front of everyone. This roof is very large, and unlike the spire-shaped roof of other temples. It is a flat-topped ground, which looks like a huge football field. What is even more surprising is that after cleaning the roof, everyone found that the entire roof was made of a huge volcanic rock. Not to mention how the roof was ground, the question of how it was placed on the top of the temple was enough to make all Egyptian scholars exhaust their brains. Some Egyptian locals hired by the Barnes family believed that this was the power of the gods, and the roof was full of cobras and scorpions representing this death, and the cursed words on the edge of the roof, people gradually began to become unstable, and a large number of people left one after another. The excavation work finally stopped.

"Those damn maggots still refuse to resume work." Jerry Barnes walked in from outside the tent, dragged the belt holster on his waist, grabbed the kettle and drank most of the pot, and let out a long sigh of relief, and asked Anna Barnes, the aunt sitting by the bed, "How is Kevin?"

"The situation is getting worse and worse, and my strength cannot last long." Anna's hands were covered by a layer of white mist, and a wave of chill was revealed in the mist. Then the mist extended out like a long snake, gradually covering Kevin, who was lying on the bed and blushing on the face. It was not until this time that Kevin's face gradually returned to normal and his breathing became calmer.

"If it really doesn't work, we can temporarily go back and wait until Kevin's situation is better before hiring some people to dig." Keri Barnes set up his drooping eyes and suggested.

"No!" Anna and Jerry both opposed in unison. Anna stood up and used her ability to collect the water in the surrounding air into the kettle, saying, "The people who left a few days ago must have spread the news that the temple was excavated here. Now the expedition teams and archaeological teams are afraid that they will all rush here. If we leave, we will come back. What we see may be ruins."

"Since that's the case, we might as well stop digging. We can make a hole from the top and then enter the interior of the temple." Keri suggested again: "I have checked around the temple. The exterior wall of the temple seems to be sealed. In this way, there will be no sand flowing in the interior of the temple. We can make a hole in the weakest wall in the northeast corner of the temple and put ropes in, so that we can enter the temple before dark."

As the head of this family expedition, Anna thought for a moment, nodded, and said to Keli: "You organize people to dig open the temple wall immediately," and then said to Jerry: "You lead your subordinates and Mayan to immediately stop the expedition teams trying to get close. You must not let them arrive at the temple before we find anything." Then she paused and said: "If necessary, kill them all, for the glory of the family."
