‘Go to the ruins to take a look!?’

The experts present immediately reacted violently.

“What right does he have to enter the ruins? Just based on a book he wrote? Isn’t this too ridiculous?”

“I just read that Egyptian Chronicles novel. Although it’s really well written, many of the things are obviously made up. That Sphinx, whatever it is, doesn’t appear in the records of Egyptian civilization at all!”

“There’s a curse in the ruins apart from mechanisms? Such a ridiculous thing would only appear in third-rate novels.”

A group of experts in the monitoring room loudly reprimanded Schubert.

Since when did novel authors’ high-tech jargon become reliable?

Ian could penetrate walls, see through walls, explode, and determine the historical age?

Was Schubert muddled with age?

Although Aika didn’t protest on the spot, she was also full of doubts.

When Schubert noticed that even his beloved student had a problem with his decision, he sighed and explained, “So much data and so many details, aren’t these enough to explain the problem? His uncle has definitely seen the pyramid and even entered it before. That tome is also priceless. I invited him to join me because I want to take a look at that tome and study this type of ruins.”

Ian calmed down after listening to Schubert’s explanation.

The pyramid had appeared in this world out of nowhere, so he also wanted to take a look.

Ian looked at Schubert and Aika beside him and said slowly, “Since you believe what I wrote, I can give it a try. But better forget about that tome. I burned it after reading it back then.”

The moment Ian had mentioned the so-called tome, he had also prepared himself mentally until he knew what he should say.

“My uncle is a very knowledgeable person. There is nothing in this world that he doesn’t understand. He also has a lot of ancient books. You must have found something by coming all the way here, right?”

As Ian spoke, his eyes were fixed on Schubert and Aika. The expressions of these people changed slightly.

“When I was young, my uncle often told me stories. I’ve also read countless classics of his. My Egyptian Chronicles was originally a book that described the ancient Egyptian dynasties and pharaohs in detail.

“…”

Ian described his uncle as if he really had such an uncle.

Schubert and the others were more and more shocked.

An image of a wise man with an aloof temperament and an adventurous temperament emerged in their hearts.

“What happened after that? Where Is your uncle Now? Can you introduce him to us?”

Schubert’s eyes were shining as he stared at Ian excitedly. He was full of yearning for Ian’s imaginary uncle. This operation would be a success as long as he could visit this old man.

When Ian noticed Schubert’s expression, he was immediately shocked.

‘This…’

He had only been pulling them by the nose for a few minutes. How come they believed him…

Ian had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue speaking.

“My uncle passed away ten years ago. I burned all the documents to heaven with him. And that year, I wrote my first novel in his memory.”

“What! Burn them!?”

Schubert and the other experts were stunned.

It was as if their uncle had passed away.

Even if the Special Intelligence Department’s methods were questionable, it was still completely accurate in acquiring intel.

However, whether or not this uncle was really as intelligent and knowledgeable as Ian had described, Ian was the only one who knew.

When everyone present heard the news, their hearts ached. These were all out-of-print documents! Yet, they were burned just like that!? What a f*cking prodigal nephew!

“Bastard!”

“What a sin!”

“Kid, did you do it on purpose! ?”

Schubert and the others had completely lost their composure!

They were both shocked and angry, and the way they looked at Ian was as if they wanted to kill him.

One had to know that they would either have to see Ian’s uncle or the ancient documents.

As long as they saw one, they would not be at a disadvantage.

Now, both were gone.

How could they not be angry?

“You… really burned them all?”

Schubert’s lips trembled slightly, and his eyes were red. He was still breathing heavily.

Ian was shocked when he saw this scene.

Was it necessary for this old man to have such a big reaction?

Looking at him now… It seemed like he was going to come up and hammer him to death at any time.

Did his words have such destructive power?

Although he felt a little guilty, he had already said it.

Ian couldn’t take it back. This would only make others think that he was lying.

Moreover, he really couldn’t bring out any ancient books.

Where could he copy them?

Thus, he had to stick with the story.

Ian said, his tone carrying a tinge of sadness, “Before my uncle died, he said that they would accompany him on his netherworld adventures, so…” 

“…”

Schubert and the others only felt a spell of dizziness. They really couldn’t hit or scold him as his motive was simple and kind. If they continued to act like this, it would be a little unreasonable.

Schubert sighed and shook his head in heartache.

Schubert was not the only one who felt heartache; the other experts were the same. They all felt their hearts bleeding.

From an archaeologist’s point of view, it was quite difficult to accept the destruction of an out-of-print document.

Even Aika was looking at Ian with a strange gaze at this time.

It was as if she was looking at a fool who was sitting on a mountain of gold but suddenly threw it away.

Ian felt a little uncomfortable under their gazes.

“Actually…” After organizing his thoughts, Ian said, “Those out-of-print documents and ancient books may have been burned, but I remember most of their contents. My memory has been strong since I was young.”

“Is this true!?”

Schubert and the other experts were suddenly jolted. A burning light appeared in their eyes as they stared at Ian.

“I think so…”

Ian could not say that he remembered everything. He could only give a general idea.

Schubert asked Ian excitedly, “Is there really a pyramid? Is it the pharaoh’s tomb or some kind of extraterrestrial device?

“Do pharaohs really exist?

“Is what we are digging now the pharaoh’s tomb?”

“What you are digging is a pyramid.

“In 3,100 BC, ancient Egypt was unified. The kings of ancient Egypt were also known as pharaohs. They were the largest slave owners in ancient Egypt and had supreme power.

“They built huge tombs for themselves—the pyramid.

“Pharaohs are naturally real.”

“…”

Ian explained to these experts what all the elementary school students on Earth knew.

Although it was just a few words, their faces were filled with shock!
