“What’s down there! Host, hurry up and tell me! I’m dying of anxiety!”

“Looking at Ian’s body covered in blood, could it be that there are more monsters down there?”

“Pure bullsh*t. There are monsters down there. Can he still come up?”

“You’re the one farting. Ian isn’t a monster. The novel he wrote has come true. Isn’t it enough to be a monster?”

“That’s true. I don’t think Ian is exaggerating. It’s just a strange snake.”

“…”

Ian took off his protective suit.

He gulped down a few mouthfuls of water before he had time to speak.

“It’s very dangerous down there! We can’t excavate it on a large scale yet. Otherwise, the things down there will quickly oxidize and lose a lot of value. It’s best if a few people bring their cameras down and film these things first.”

Ian panted as he spoke to the people around him.

Although Ian did not explicitly state the danger, everyone knew that this was not simple.

Even when it came to the desert ants, Ian did not think much of it.

“What exactly is underground?” Aika could not help but ask. As a fan of Ian’s books, she naturally speculated something.

“There’s a strange snake down there. It’s the kind of snake that I wrote about in my novel.”

Ian did not hide anything and directly told her about the situation under the cave.

“Is it the Giant-Eyed Snake that you wrote about in your novel?”

Aika had read Ian’s novel many times, so she naturally knew what he was talking about.

Many of the surrounding team members looked at their surprised expressions in confusion.

Wasn’t it just a snake? Although it was rare in the desert, it was not unheard of.

Was there a need to have such a big reaction?

Upon noticing the others’ expressions, Aika hurriedly explained, “This snake isn’t an ordinary snake.

“According to legend, there is only one female venomous snake of this kind. This strange snake has four limbs and will hatch eggs that look like eyeballs. Each egg can hatch hundreds of strange snakes.

“This strange snake’s venom can kill an adult male in three seconds.

“Pharaohs used this snake as the guardian of their tombs to prevent tomb raiders from destroying the tomb.”

After listening to Aika’s explanation, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

Especially when they heard the outcome of being bitten to death in three seconds, they could not help but feel a lingering fear.

If they were the ones who had just entered and not Ian…

Then it was very likely that a corpse would have come up.

Ian described the situation below in detail.

If they wanted to dig, they would definitely need someone to go down and film.

Aika volunteered. “I have a cell phone. I will definitely be suitable. Moreover, my figure is relatively slender. The burden of the rope will also be lighter.”

Aika naturally wanted to be on the front line of archaeology. Since her professor could not participate, his student would definitely shoulder this responsibility.

However, other than Aika, no one else enthusiastically offered.

They loved archaeology, but they were still a little worried in the face of a life-threatening situation.

A team member weakly raised his hand and said, “Ian, why don’t we wait for the government to come first…”

Under these circumstances, it was definitely best to wait for the government’s support.

However, without Schubert’s support, the ownership of the pyramid would be unknown.

This was an important reason as to why Ian was in such a hurry to go down.

The sooner he got the reward, the better.

There was still the signing reward for the underground palace that had not been received.

Ian would not want to give it to others.

What if something went wrong?

“If you can’t do it, let us do it.”

A voice came from not far away.

It was an excavation team from Egypt.

Now everyone was staring at the pyramid ruins.

The team from Cairo came the fastest.

“How beautiful and magnificent! This is the legacy of our great ancestors.” The leader of the team, Professor Feissel, opened his arms and shouted, “I can feel the power from my bloodline boiling.”

Professor Feissel closed his eyes and slowly walked to the side of Ian’s team.

“We are in charge of this place now. You can get lost.” Professor Feissel saw that Ian was about to leave, so he added, “This person can stay as a guide, the others can leave.”

This contemptuous tone immediately caused many people to feel disgusted.

“Why are you telling us to leave! We were the ones who found it first.”

“Aren’t you aware of the procedures? We are Professor Schubert’s team, and the international government authorized us to carry out the archaeological excavation here!”

Many of the team members said indignantly, but most of them felt sorrow in their hearts.

If Professor Schubert was here, would such an unknown professor be so impudent here?

Upon hearing Professor Schubert’s name, Feissel naturally became nervous.

But then he said confidently, “Your professor is still receiving treatment in the base. I say, is there a problem with us taking over?”

The nearby army had come along with Feissel. Naturally, they knew this professor who originated from their country.

After receiving the hint from the Egyptian government, they let their own team take over the pyramid site. No one wanted to hand over their country’s precious history to others to excavate.

Thanks to Feissel’s tough attitude, many of the team members were burning with anger. However, they were not only facing the other party’s archaeological team but also armed soldiers.

Even if they were infuriated, they had to endure it.

 Ian stood up from the sand at this time, patted the sand on his body, and said, “You said that I could be your guide, but I have a condition.”

“What condition? Tell me.”

Feissel was naturally not a fool to have gotten to this position. Although he could physically drive the other party away, he could not point a gun at the other party and force him to work for him.

“As long as the conditions are not too excessive, I can agree.”

Ian’s attire suggested that he had just entered, and he needed Ian’s experience.

“I want to bring someone down with me.”

Since Ian had proposed his conditions, he naturally had to go down again.

However, he knew that some traps had limited individual abilities and needed a helper to deal with them.

That was why he said that he needed one person to go down with him.

“Okay, this condition isn’t too much.”

Although Feissel knew the risk of bringing one more person with him, he was eager to go down. Thus, he did not want any more complications.

Excavation teams from other countries would appear at any time. He needed to excavate some valuable cultural relics during this time window.

Since Feissel had agreed to his request, Ian nodded at Aika.

This girl’s courage and physique were not bad. When facing the desert army ants, she had remained calm and taken out the engineer shovel.

She was stronger than the other team members by more than a little bit.

Aika also nodded.

These two people would follow the new team into the sacrificial temple again.
