In the jungle of the city, the towering pyramid suddenly shook slightly.
From 4 different directions, the members from the 4 teams tried their best to tighten the Ancient Seal Net around the pyramid until it swallowed up the night.
The tighter the Ancient Seal Net tightened, the lower the surrounding temperature. The more comfortable they felt, the more the enemy did not summon the sun but the fire of hell.
After the pressure was relieved, Chen Jiahwa and Lin Chengbo regained their freedom. They rushed forward to help, channeling different emotions in the same way.
The pyramid shook even more violently, and some of the broken sand and stones on the wall fell. It was as if the entire pyramid was rapidly eroding and was about to collapse.
The pyramid shook even more violently. Broken stones and sand fell from the walls. It was as if the whole pyramid was weathering.
"Charge to the roof!" Lou Xiaoning yelled again. She pulled on Byakee's stinger and led the charge. It was more determination than physical strength that kept her going.
Behind her, the other members of the squad were also charging forward. The other three squads were also doing the same. In the confrontation just now, they could feel that the enemy's strength was also approaching exhaustion. It was not easy to maintain such a ritual.
There was a viewing platform at the top of Hong Xing Building. It was open to visitors to enjoy the bustling city around it.
Normally, it would be bustling from day to night. At dawn, there would be visitors preparing to take pictures of the sunrise.
Now the air around the platform was filled with a pungent smell. It was the stench of goats and fresh blood.
At the center of the platform was a small 'pyramid'. It was a pile of tourist corpses. There was no sign of the ancient Nubians around it, but there was a group of people in black robes with goat horns. Their faces were exposed, and just as Wu Siyu had said, most of them had the faces of old people.
Chang Qianhang was still leaning on Byakee's back when he recognized many of them. He was shocked.
"That's … Professor Liu Jiecheng, and that's Professor Zhang Zhang … They're both experts in ancient Egyptology and ancient Cushology … But they're both dead. Professor Liu Jiecheng passed away when I was still in university, and Professor Zhang Zhang died in a car accident …"
Hearing this, everyone seemed to understand. Lou Xiaoning said, "It's obvious that these old men didn't die before. They've gone on the evil path."
The joint team continued to carry out their duties. Some were responsible for loitering around the building, while others swooped down to the rooftop. The automatic rifles in their hands were already aimed at the elderly. Lou Xiaoning tossed out a flash grenade. With a bang, the blinding light flashed on the observation platform.
The members of the team had their eyes protected and were not affected. However, the black-robed men were still standing, as if their eyes were different from normal people.
"I've seen the real sun …" A hoarse voice said. It was Professor Liu Jiecheng who Chang Qianhang mentioned. "The sun's fire was thousands of times brighter than it is now …"
At the same time, the team successfully landed on the observation platform. Lou Xiaoning, Li Zhenjing, Uncle Dan and Chang Qianhang closed in.
Those goat-headed black-robed elders stood motionlessly where they were, calmly and contemptuously looking at them.
"Don't move," Lou Xiaoning shouted. Lou Xiaoning shouted. She did not have much hope in capturing them alive. The dead bodies of the tourists made her want to pull the trigger and shoot at them, but if they could be captured alive, it would be very valuable. "You've been surrounded. Your ritual is over."
"Is it over?" Professor Liu Jiecheng replied. There seemed to be a smile on his aged face as he looked at the juniors who were much younger than him. Finally, his gaze fell on Chang Qianhang. He recognized him. "Qianhang, I asked you a question before. Do you have an answer now?"
Lou Xiaoning and Li Zhenjing glanced at Chang Qianhang out of the corner of their eyes.
"It was when I was still in school …" Chang Qianhang said blankly. "A few days before Professor Liu Jiecheng 'died'."
"You know about the pyramids, and now you've seen them," the old man said slowly. The old man said slowly. The old men beside him also had a faint smile on their faces. "Then, can you forget about the pyramids? You can forget a small house, you can forget the tall buildings on the street, you can forget many things but you will never forget the pyramids … When you've seen the pyramids, be it the real thing or the image, you will never forget the pyramids … "
Lou Xiaoning waved for the group to move. They could not allow the old man to continue. There were too many variables. Ending the ceremony was the key. "Take them all down!"
"Everyone, if you insist on your ignorance, then don't think about the pyramids!"
Professor Liu Jiecheng laughed. He laughed without restraint. "Don't look at the tall buildings, don't look at the tall objects, don't touch the majestic objects! However, all the people, all the gods, and all the souls will eventually see the real Sun God … "
They fired the taser gun, they fired the Ancient Seal, Lou Xiaoning fired the gun but none of them could stop the old man.
The faces of the old men in black robes turned red, just like when Professor Sun Lun self-destructed …
Bang bang, bang bang, bang bang.
The old and strange faces suddenly exploded. Even their skulls were blown into pieces. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
The headless bodies wobbled and collapsed into a pool of blood.
The 17 old men on the observation deck all suffered the same fate.
"F * ck." Lou Xiaoning looked at the changes in front of her and took a deep breath. Although she had expected it, she was still depressed and impatient. Everyone had mixed feelings.
On the other side, the pile of corpses seemed to lose its support. It collapsed and the dead bodies fell to the ground.
Everyone also felt the pressure around them quickly dissipate, and the darkness receded like the tide. The unstable spatial ripples on this street no longer swayed, and their communication signal suddenly improved. Their earphones rang with calls from the camp and the command center.
Even Chen Jiahwa and Lin Chengbo knew the ceremony at Qing An City had been stopped. However, the city was a mess and it left many new questions.
What did Professor Liu Jiecheng mean by those crazy words before his death?
Why not think about the pyramids?
"Don't think about the pyramids, don't think about the pyramids …" Chang Qianhang held his head. His face was contorted with pain. "Why can't I remember the pyramids when I say 'don't think about the pyramids' … How can I forget the pyramids …"
He remembered that when Professor Liu Jiecheng asked him that, his face was full of confusion, pain, and fear, as if he had been tortured for a long time and had gone mad.
