Egypt, Cairo.
About twenty kilometers southwest of Cairo were the tombs of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs.
Due to their similar appearance to the Chinese character ‘Jin1’, they were commonly known as the ‘Pyramids2′.
The largest among them was called the Great Pyramid of Giza.
At this moment, at the foot of the Great Pyramid of Giza, there were thousands of professional miners.
They were using high-precision equipment to dig out something.
What else could it be?
Not long ago, a team consisting of archaeologists from over 200 countries was formed, led by the United States.
They mapped out the internal structure of the pyramid with cosmic waves and found the correct way to excavate it.
Hence, after a discussion with the Egyptian authorities, the archaeological team immediately organized a large-scale excavation operation on the Great Pyramid of Giza.
After more than half a month of field survey and research, they finally found the correct path to enter the pyramid.
As long as they could drill through the path safely, they would be able to enter the Great Pyramid of Giza while preserving the overall structure of the tomb.
At this moment, in a tent far away from the tomb, there were two archaeology professors and their students. The professors were over sixty years old.
They were being interviewed live by Global Pictures.
…
“Professor Kohler, after so many years, the world’s archaeology community has finally found the correct way to enter the Great Pyramid of Giza. What are your views on this project that has attracted worldwide attention?”
At this moment, a beautiful hostess in her twenties with blonde hair and blue eyes smiled and handed the microphone over.
Behind her, the cameraman responsible for filming Professor Kohler quickly turned the camera around.
As known to all, the Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the only two remaining Eight Wonders of the Ancient World, and the other is China’s Terracotta Army.
The excavation of this pyramid could set a new record in the field of archaeology.
Fifty years ago, the first excavation of the Great Pyramid of Giza resulted in many irreparable losses.
The world’s archaeological organizations had no choice but to seal it.
This was a great pity for many people.
Now, as the world’s archaeological organizations announced plans to restart the excavation of the Pyramid of Giza, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people who were interested in the mysteries of pyramids.
Because of this, the world’s largest film company, Global Pictures, specially set up a large-scale live broadcast program.
When the broadcast started, tens of millions of viewers were already waiting in front of the screen.
Kohler was an archaeology professor at Harvard University in the United States. He, together with another professor of the same level as him, was invited to lead the excavation project.
Now the camera turned to him.
Professor Kohler immediately said in a serious tone, “First of all, thank you all for giving me the opportunity to lead this project.”
“Secondly, before the excavation, we’ve already mapped out the internal structure of the Great Pyramid of Giza through cosmic waves transmitted by satellites.”
“Therefore, we are very confident in this operation.”
That’s right.
This was the second excavation project of the Great Pyramid of Giza since 1971.
The previous project had failed due to the lack of field survey equipment.
But this time, with the help of cosmic wave mapping technologies, the team had already determined the internal structure of the Pyramid of Giza.
At this moment, Professor Taylor added, “That’s right. Our archaeologists have studied the information and calculated that the Great Pyramid of Giza was built from 2.3 million large blocks, each weighing 2.5 tons.”
“Moreover, the pyramid occupies an area of about 52,900 square meters with a height reaching 146.59 meters. However, due to mechanical weathering by the wind, it now stands at 136.5 meters tall, equivalent to a 40-story building.”
“If we can excavate it completely, this will be a new milestone in the world’s archaeological history.”
After the two of them finished speaking, the netizens watching the live stream were deeply impressed.
“Wow! As expected of the world’s largest pyramid!”
“Incredible! 2.3 million large blocks, each weighing about two and a half tons. Isn’t that equivalent to 5.75 million tons in total?”
“Besides, among all the pyramids, the Great Pyramid of Giza is the most mysterious!”
“Why do you say it’s mysterious?”
“That’s because the various statistics of the pyramid coincide with those of the Earth.”
“For example, the mass of the Earth is one billion times that of the pyramid.”
“The distance from the Earth to the sun is 100 million times the height of the pyramid.”
“Its height is also equal to the average altitude on the Earth’s surface, and there are many other similar data.”
“Such precision! Is this really a coincidence?”
“WTF! Looks like this Great Pyramid of Giza is really mysterious. Could it be built by aliens?”
“I think it’s possible because there is also coincidence in astronomical data similar to what the person just said.”
“For example, its vertices are facing due north, due south, due east, and due west with an error of fewer than 1/6 degrees.”
“This is a building from 2580 BC. Its construction precision is close to that of modern times.”
“Also, I’ve heard all kinds of rumors about the Great Pyramid. For instance, it’s said that if you put a dead body next to the pyramid, it will quickly wither and become a mummy!”
“And anyone who tried to enter the pyramid was cursed and died an unnatural death a few days later.”
“WTF! Doesn’t that mean the archaeological team is in danger?”
“Indeed. I heard that the last excavation project failed because the team was cursed!”
“…”
In an instant, the netizens started discussing all kinds of mysterious rumors about the pyramid.
That’s to be expected because the Great Pyramid of Giza had always been famous in the world.
Having heard about the netizens’ concerns, Professor Kohler smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about curses. We should believe in science.”
“Besides, excavating the Great Pyramid of Giza will help us understand the important historical materials from 2580 years ago.”
“It might even bring our technology to a higher level!”
“And what is truly valuable is still the grave goods in the tomb.”
At this moment, Taylor added, “That’s right! The items in the tomb belong to the people of the world. Instead of accompanying Khufu in his tomb, it’s better to have them displayed in the museum as soon as possible.”
Both of them sounded excited.
That was because no one knew what it meant to be able to preside over the excavation of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
Apart from contributing to archaeology and history, the most important thing was still fame and fortune.
Who said archaeologists were indifferent to fame?
There were so many grave goods in the pyramid, many of which could prove to be of great importance in archaeology. By then, the professors would definitely become famous in the field of archaeology and history.
When the time came, they could have whatever they wanted.
As for things like curses, they were simply nonsense in their eyes.
There was no room for superstition in the modern era.
But at this moment.
“I advise you not to excavate the Great Pyramid of Giza!”
A sudden voice interrupted their thoughts.
Kohler and the others turned around and saw a twenty-year-old young man standing behind them.
Who is he?
How did he come here?
They saw that the person was dressed in vintage clothes. He seemed to be from ancient Egypt.
He had messy hair and a faintly dispirited look on his face.
There was a mysterious vibe around him.
Before Kohler and Taylor could speak, the blonde rushed forward and asked, “Handsome, why do you think that the archaeological team should not excavate the Great Pyramid of Giza?”
Vincent frowned at the question. He looked at the pyramid in front of him and the sphinx before it. “You will wake up the sleeping gods!”
“Millions will die under the wrath of the gods!”
