"Hurley, how different are we from our ancestors?
A rainstorm caused the water level to rise. A fish leaped onto the road by the riverbank. It was a place it had never seen before and could not understand. It could not adapt to it. It could not breathe. It could only leap again and again until it died from exhaustion on the asphalt road several metres away from the river.
There were people on bicycles, cars, and stray animals.
How could it understand these? From its perspective, what it had experienced was beyond all possibility, it was the most dangerous thing in the world.
But that was only several metres away from the river it normally swam.
How many times have we been like the fish that leaped onto the riverbank, or the human ancestors who witnessed the solar eclipse, panicked and had a splitting headache, and then attributed our ignorance to the invasion of darkness? But before the fish died, the indescribable thing it saw was the sun. "
"It won't be long, George. All living things in this world will soon know the true sun."
"At least they will know it before they die."
…
The brownish desert was parted by a black line. The black pyramid reached into the sky.
At the peak of the pyramid, there was a throne made of flesh and blood that resembled a cube of metal. It shone with a dazzling light. The earth was no longer trembling. The earth was prostrating at the foot of the pyramid, like believers worshipping God.
After the Ancient Seal Web was broken, the members of the alliance were scattered around. They did not have time to react.
They knew the Order of the Little Ram would not be easy to deal with. These archaeologists had been plotting for decades. Many of them were not even born yet, so this was not going to be an easy battle. But the enemy's power surprised them, and this was after they had fought over the offerings …
"We see a black pyramid … The flood, the flood has resumed its advance …"
The captain of the patrol unit, Wang Ming's report came through the communicator again. His calm tone was trying to suppress his panic. "The color of the flood has turned black … There are many crocodile heads in it, they should be the same kind as the flood crocodiles that destroyed Captain Gu's tomb. The flood is closing in, we are about to reach the tomb …"
In the distant desert on the surface, the traces of this convoy had already appeared, and behind them, monstrous waves were roaring and surging over.
This time, the people at the tomb could see how the flood reached the sky but it could only reach a part of the black pyramid's height. The patrol unit rushed towards them, they still had no idea what was happening to the black pyramid.
At the same time, the communicator came from other stations. The shouts of many helicopter pilots were in chaos.
"The equipment is under unknown interference, the helicopter is unstable, there is no condition to land, there is no condition to land …"
One of the pilots, Li Jianchang, shouted. However, he did not panic much. Instead, he was holding on and resisting. Soon, he made a decision. "I will drive to the Black Pyramid and see if I can observe it before it crashes."
When the words reached the surface, Xiao Xu immediately said, "No, all pilots, prepare to land. We will summon Byakee to pick you up."
Xiao Xu's decision was feasible but the pilots' minds were still under the influence of the dark energy. They were relying on their last bit of will to make the final decision. In the sky, Lee Jianchang's helicopter rushed towards the top of the black pyramid. His report was still coming, "The outer wall of the pyramid is twisting, there is something inside … It is alive, this pyramid is alive … Ah, I can see its eyes … F * ck you!"
The muffled sound of an explosion came from the sky above. The helicopter crashed into the vast body of the Black Pyramid and exploded into pieces.
Almost immediately, the second helicopter crashed into the pyramid and then the third.
Boom, boom, boom! Sparks from the explosion splashed on the black pyramid's outer wall. The helicopter debris rained down like rain.
The people on the ground hurried to avoid the debris. Xiao Xu shouted decisively, "Everyone, stop summoning Byakee. We cannot get close to the top of the pyramid, that is the center of the ritual."
Peacock, Malachite and Feng Peiqian saw it as well.
The sun in the sky appeared to be growing larger, the sun was getting closer to this world.
Even though they were veterans, they found it hard to bear at such a close distance.
At this time, Wang Ming and the patrol team met up on the ground. The huge flood that was hundreds of meters high surged to a position less than 100 meters away from here and stopped again, as if it was blocked by some unknown force. However, that force was declining, while the little ram's power was rising.
Deng Ximei looked around. They had surrounded the black pyramid, and the waves had surrounded them.
Once the wave reached them, other than the black pyramid, everyone, vehicles, tents and equipment would be swallowed by the water.
"If we are swallowed …" She said, "Everything here will be sacrificed again, including us."
Was this the final battle? They did not feel like they had enough power to claim victory. Perhaps they could only fight to the death like Li Jianchang and the rest.
At that moment, Chen Jiahwa tirelessly hauled out another female corpse from the underwater chamber. When he saw the change in the ground, he said hurriedly, "There's a new situation down there. Captain Lou and the rest have regained their mobility and entered the second chamber. A huge part of the ceiling has caved in, forming a huge space. There are many rocks and pieces of gold leaf underwater …"
"Jiahwa, why aren't you tired?" Xiao Xu did not look at the second chamber but asked, "Have you gained some kind of power?"
"Yes." Chen Jiahwa was no longer as focused as before. He showed Gu Jun his right wrist. "It might be the power of the crows."
The people around them saw the black mark and their expressions changed. Xiao Xu made a new decision. "Jiahwa, continue to move the bodies. Have Captain Lou continue to move to the third chamber. We will not use the Ancient Seal, we will use this seal! Summon the crows! That is what we need to do. "
When Deng Ximei saw the Seal of the Crow, she felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Peacock, Malachite, Wang Ruoxiang and Uncle Dan who rushed over from the medical team.
"His right hand sure is steady when he holds the scalpel." Uncle Dan choked on the words that confused many people, but there were some who could understand what he was saying.
But Li Zhenjing, Hubbard Scott and Kombarov were confused. What kind of seal was that? If it was a seal that could summon supernatural energy, why would it be used so casually? To Li Zhenjing's surprise, the phrase 'summon the crows', the one who caused the massacre at the Special Ops base … the crows?
Xiao Xu, Deng Ximei and the rest started to move. They all had a close connection to the real body of the crows.
The howling wind could not stop the firm strokes of their right hands. The pressure of the black pyramid and the encirclement of the flood waves could not crush their spines. Sharp black marks rushed out from between their right fingers, as if they were cutting through the void with a scalpel.
"Crow, crow!" Deng Ximei screamed, "Rise from the grave, awaken from death, now is the time to descend!"
At the same time as everyone unleashed their Raven Seal, the shadow of a raven suddenly rose from beneath Chen Jiahua.
Above the flood, a flock of black birds flew over. It was a flock of crows.
