  Although Zhang Zian had expected the explosion to cause the collapse of the earth’s surface, he was still shocked to see such a scene, a Hollywood-blockbuster-only scene, happening in front of him.

  Ordinary people may not be able to witness such a scene in their lifetime. Unfortunately, he had not managed to stop the explosion. He’d tried it and hadn’t succeeded.

  Although the Colonel had not pressed the button on the remote control, the high temperature of the sun had completed his work, and the Colonel himself had paid a price for his actions.

  He saw Peter Lee and his team drive, save people, and flee to their cars. As for him, he jumped left and right to avoid the cracks in the ground. He was exhausted.

  There was a crack that came too fast. He didn’t manage to avoid it, and one foot stepped on the edge of the crack. He tried his best to maintain his balance.

  “Run! It’s going to collapse!”


  Famous rushed over and grabbed his collar. He pulled him backwards, causing him to fall down. However, doing so allowed him to escape the crisis. Famous had outstanding athletic ability, and with four legs, he could stand firmer than someone on two legs. Between the cracks, he was able to jump around with ease.

  Seeing that Zhang Zian was still not standing up, he grabbed his clothes and dragged him backwards once more.

  “Wait a minute! Fina and the rest, are they leaving the pyramid?” he screamed.

  He had to scream. The sound generated by the collapse of the earth was too loud. If he did not scream, Famous probably would not hear him.

  “It seems that they haven’t! They didn’t return to the car when I came over! Only Richard flew back along the way!” Famous responded equally loudly. “I saw that danger was coming and none of you were coming out, so I came to you!”


  Zhang Zian stumbled up from the ground and said, “You go back to the car and wait for me. I will go in and find Fina!”


  Famous was anxious. “The pyramid is so big. Where will you look? Also, as you go in, they may be coming out. Won’t that then be a wasted trip?”


  That was indeed possible. There was more than one passage into the pyramid. He didn’t know where Fina and Galaxy had gone. If he got lost, that would be terrible.

  But…… Since entering the desert, he had been worried about Fina’s mental state. The regrets from 2,000 years ago had always been on her mind. With the mental stress accumulating up until now, she must be hoping to settle things today.

  The only uncertainty was how she intended to settle them.

  “It doesn’t matter! The pyramid will not sink yet—it’ll hang in there for a while! I have to go in and have a look! You wait for me back at the car! If……the situation is critical, you go with the rest first. I will definitely find a way out!” Zhang Zian shouted.

  Famous was anxious. “Then I will go in with you! At least I can smell Fina. It is better than you looking for her yourself!”


  Zhang Zian hesitated. “Well that’s true. Then when you find the smell of Fina, leave first!”


  Time was short. Although they had differing opinions, there was no time to dispute. They ran towards the pyramid.

  As there were no mines in the underground of the pyramid, the closer they got to the pyramid, the smaller the cracks were. However, as the surrounding areas were all collapsing, the heavy weight of the pyramid would make the ground sink as well. This was because it had once had underground rivers and springs. The geological conditions of the area were just not stable.

  Famous rushed to the front, and Zhang Zian turned on a flashlight. They went in via the passage that Peter Lee had carved out.

  He was also shocked when he saw the stone statue of Meredith Segar, the patron saint of the underworld. However, as the stone statue had been eroded by the rain, it was less horrible-looking than when Peter Lee and his team had first seen it.

  The dust had settled, but pieces of stone and empty gun shells were everywhere. The smoke had yet to dissipate, showing just how fierce the gun battle had been.

  When Famous came in, he bowed his head and sniffed. He smelled the scent of Fina nearby, but the scent track was very messy. It seemed that Fina had repeatedly jumped around the area. He could not pick up a fresh scent at this moment.

  “Who is it?”


  Suddenly there was a cry from the darkness. It was the voice of Old Time Tea.

  “It’s us!” replied Famous.

  The sound insulation effect of the pyramid was remarkable. Even as the outside environment was badly destroyed with deafening collapses and cracking sounds, it was still possible to speak at a normal volume here.

  Old Time Tea jumped out of the darkness.

  “Tea Master, are you okay? Are you shot? Are you injured? Why are you still here? Where are Galaxy and Fina?” Zhang Zian asked, his questions coming out of his mouth like bullets. He used his flashlight to scan the area. He could not be bothered now even if he shone it straight into Fina’s eyes.

  Old Time Tea lifted his claws and pointed to the channel that was tilted upwards behind him. He succinctly described the situation. “I am fine! Fina went to the tomb of the king, and Galaxy followed. I was worried that you would find the wrong way when you came in, so I waited here.”


  Even if the land was collapsing outside and the pyramid was in jeopardy, Old Time Tea firmly believed that Zhang Zian would come in to find them. Thus, he stayed put.

  Zhang Zian nodded. “Tea Master, you go out first with Famous. There is only one road ahead, and I won’t get lost. I also won’t miss Fina and Galaxy this way.”


  Old Time Tea was worried, but Zhang Zian said, “You don’t have to worry. Please leave first so that I have one less worry!”


  “.……Okay.” Old Time Tea sighed a little, knowing that he was right. In the face of nature destroying the earth, the power of both humans and elfins was small.

  Famous also wanted to chime in, but Zhang Zian waved his hand to stop him.

  “Don’t say anything else. The longer we drag our feet, the more dangerous it is! I will come out with Fina and Galaxy as soon as possible! Wait for me next to the car!” He sought to end the conversation by raising his tone firmly.

  Famous and Old Time Tea looked at each other and knew that he had made up his mind.

  “We will wait for you outside,” they said matter-of-factly with no words of “be careful” or “take care.” To truly be safe, they would have to leave the pyramid together. That action by itself would be care enough.

  “If the situation is critical, you leave first!” Zhang Zian shouted at their backs, but he wasn’t sure if they heard it or if they would truly internalize it.

  He turned his flashlight and let out a long sigh while looking over the route to the king’s tomb. He took a deep breath and rushed up.

  When he passed Meredith Segar’s stone statue, he took a picture and said, “If you are truly the patron saint of the underworld, tell the goddess Bastet to bless her great follower!”
