As a consultant, Bai Lin certainly didn't need to be a pioneer. The young Auror named Elia just made his wand glow fluorescent and got into the stone house first.
"Be careful!" Blanco warned. He naturally walked at the end, even Bai Lin was ahead of him.
The Aurors added protective spells to themselves and lit their wands. The group of people walked along the stairs for about forty or fifty meters diagonally downwards. A flashing stone door appeared in front of them, with an abstract image of a Sphinx engraved on it. painting.
The Auror who must have done some research on antiques took a few steps forward, touched the stone door and said, "It has a history of hundreds of years and is not a product of ancient Egypt."
Then he pointed at the stone door and said: "Allahomora! (Unlocking Curse)" However, the stone door did not move at all.
Elijah said: "Try this, Dis Endim! (Left and left separation)" Left and right separation is a prank spell that was once used to open the secret passage to Hogsmeade. This Auror obviously has a lot of experience. Broad and experienced.
Sure enough, the stone door slowly opened from left to right. Bai Lin saw that the stone door was half a meter thick. Without the separation spell, it would have taken a long time to blast it to pieces to open it.
Behind the stone door is an underground hall. The floor is very clean and seems to have been swept. There is no thick dust or traces of footprints.
There is a shaft in the middle of the hall, more than one meter in diameter, leading deep underground.
Elia approached the mouth of the well, pointed the wand below, and the fluorescent light fell off the tip of his wand and fell down the shaft. After a while, Elia raised his head and said: "It's fifty meters deep (the French don't use it). feet as a unit of distance) and the lifting device at the wellhead was removed.”
Of course, this did not trouble the Aurors. Blanco said again: "Be careful, there may be remnants of the Spellbreakers lurking here!"
Several Aurors nodded, but still bravely jumped down from the well. Their bodies fell slowly. After a while, fluorescent light emitted from the bottom of the well, drawing a safe circle.
Bai Lin glanced at Blanc. Of course, the director would not jump first. Bai Lin shrugged and jumped from the wellhead. He used the floating technique to land slower. By the way, he checked the four walls of the well, which were engraved with There are many patterns and some murals, but I can’t see clearly what they are because of the passage of time. The shaft is wider than expected. Although the wellhead and the exit below are both square, the inside of the shaft is round, which should be For reasons of resistance to lateral pressure.
After landing at the bottom of the well, there is an underground hall just like the one above, but there are very ancient corridors in each of the four directions.
"There is a mysterious energy protecting this place," Bai Lin said: "The air is very fresh, which proves that there is a ventilation device, but the degree of weathering of the stone walls is very low. It is not our wizard's magic, but a more primitive energy."
Blanco also fell down. He looked around and said, "Explore the road!"
Elijah pointed in one direction and said: "It should be this way. I just wrote down the direction in which I came in. This way faces north, leading to the bottom of the Pyramid of King Unas."
Several other Aurors also "showed off their magical powers", some released some kind of trained rats, some released magical threads, and it didn't take long before they came to the same conclusion.
Blanco nodded, and Elijah took the lead again, heading north.
The corridor is quite long, and there are many well-maintained murals on the stone walls on both sides. Bai Lin thought about it and took out the camera he bought before. He wanted to take a picture of the murals and ask an expert to interpret it. However, the camera suffered some interference. Unable to work, Bai Lin had to give up.
Although the corridor is long and narrow, it is not empty on both sides. On the contrary, there are many small rooms. The Aurors checked as they walked, but they found nothing. Most of the rooms were cleared. Maybe it was the work of tomb robbers, maybe someone was there. I lived here and cleaned up the traces when I left.
Bai Lin had a very bad feeling, as if his sense of time had been greatly reduced. As they walked, Bai Lin thought about it, how long had he walked? How far have you walked? Whether it was ten minutes or twenty minutes, I had no idea at all.
"How long have we been gone?" he asked.
Blanco took out his pocket watch, but it had stopped. He knocked twice, but it didn't move at all.
Blanco looked quite unhappy and said, "Gary, go back!"
The Auror agreed, walked back quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Elijah in front also quickened his pace. It was about 800 meters from the stone house above to the Pyramid of King Unas. If their trajectory was restored in Bai Lin's brain, they had walked nearly two kilometers north. It was early. It should be out of the scope of the Pyramid of King Unas.
Suddenly, Elijah in front of him exclaimed. Bai Lin stepped forward to take a look and saw a very strange situation happening. Gary ran over from the front, the wand in his hand glowing brightly.
"We're going in circles!" Elia said.
"Maybe it's a very strong confusion spell! We got lost." Blanco said.
Several Aurors stopped and began to cast spells on the surrounding environment, hoping to break the confusion spell or other illusions. However, it was of no use. There were still long corridors around them.
"Eh? Where's Gary?" Bai Lin said.
Only then did everyone realize that Gary, who had just appeared in front of him and was running towards them, suddenly disappeared.
"This place is so weird! Try going back to the embassy!" Blanco said. As he said that, he was the first to use apparation, but he just jumped on the spot and moved away.
The other Aurors also tried one by one, and finally determined that they were trapped. Not only was Bai Lin's apparation useless, summoning Phoenix in his heart seemed to have no effect at all.
A sense of fear crawled up his spine. Wizards are very powerful humans, but this power is based on the use of magic. One day when he loses magic, he may not be as good as ordinary people.
Even though Aurors are the best among wizards, they are still very frightened in areas that they have no understanding of at all, but they don't immediately collapse emotionally like ordinary people.
"Maybe the passage is in the rooms just now!" Blanco whispered. He was extremely scared, but he still analyzed it rationally.
"Then shall we go forward or backward?" asked an Auror.
Blanco looked forward and then back, and was stunned. As long as he looked back and forth a few times, he found that he couldn't tell which direction was the front and which was the rear.
"Maybe it's a spiritual spell, just like the tricks of dementors and resentful spirits..." Bai Lin took out his wand and shouted: "Calling God to Guard!"
A huge golden owl appeared on Bai Lin's wand. Blanco and the three Aurors widened their eyes. They had only seen a silver patron saint. They had never seen a golden one, and it was lifelike in size and shape. The extent is unheard of.
The calling eagle owl emitted a loud chirp, and suddenly the murals on both sides of the corridor seemed to be powered on, emitting a faint golden light.
Bai Lin thought for a moment that he might have made a mistake. The owl is the symbol of the Egyptian Sun God, and his ability is inseparable from the Sun God. It might be really effective.
In fact, just as Bai Lin expected, the surrounding walls began to move like snake scales. In the astonished eyes of everyone, the nearest wall opened like a human mouth, opening an entrance.
Bai Lin got in without saying a word.
The inside is quite spacious, like a huge steam workshop. At a glance, there are at least four huge steam engines connected by a circular conveyor belt. The middle is full of furnaces that are still burning with flames, dozens of anvils, countless hammers, Drill bits and other tools were scattered everywhere.
"This is a secret writing workshop!" Bai Lin said. Everyone was shocked. When they looked back, the entrance disappeared again.
