Chapter 157: Gathering
Da, da, da
The fierce gunfire was terribly loud.
The archaeologists from the seven countries had their eyes dull.
They did witness an incredible miracle.
But... the impact of the soul today was even more intense.
In their field of visions, that extremely magical scene appeared again.
All the bullets that Saixi shot towards Ye Bei stopped when it was only one meter away, and quietly suspended in the air.
Those bullets were all brass-colored. It looked strange under the fluorescent reflection on the surrounding walls.
"You, you" Saixi finally calmed down a bit.
When he looked at the light-hearted youth in front of him, he remembered the scene he had seen via the video before. At that time, one of his subordinates seemed to have been shot and died tragically.
But when Saixi said these two words, he immediately focused on Khufu.
In his concept, only Khufu had that terrible power.
Then he tried to restore his calmness.
His eyes were scarlet and he stated, "Your Excellency, the entire Pyramid is now completely surrounded and filled with explosives. As long as I die, those explosives will explode immediately! Even if you have the most terrifying power, you still can't stop it. I think it's best for you not to interfere in this matter and stand aside honestly."
When he vocalized this, his teeth clenched.
He had seen Khufu's power...
Saixi also often imagined that one day he could surpass Khufu.
He dreamed that one day, he would be able to speak while toe to toe against Khufu.
He could be full of momentum.
And today, he finally did it.
But
After his words fell, Khufu's deep eyes did not change at all. When he looked at the Saixi in front of him, he just felt that he was extremely pitiful.
"Saixi, do you know what you are doing?" Khufu wanted to remind him of something.
Saixi's legs trembled unconsciously, "Of course I know! I want to be like you, with unparalleled power and wealth. And what I want the most is time, time that I can enjoy infinitely."
Those archaeological experts squatting on the ground heard this and thought of something in their minds, and their eyes were very shocked. When they looked at Ye Bei and Khufu again, their eyes were scorching.
The security personnel behind were still holding guns. Their eyes were stern, seeming to be waiting for orders.
"Living like me?" Khufu's voice changed a bit, he thought Saixi was very naive.
Saixi's legs rocked more and more fiercely, "Yes, you have endless wealth, endless power, and endless lifespan. To live like you is probably everyone's goal."
"Then do you know how painful it is to live like me?" Khufu's voice faded.
Saixi laughed, "Hehe, it sounds dexterous! It's just because you already have it, how can you understand my mood?"
"Oh?" Khufu seemed to have some interest.
Saixi was scared but he became crazier, "My life is not long, I have not enjoyed enough. Since the first time I started obeying your orders, I dreamed about being like you every day! I also know that there must be secrets in the Pyramid. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, I will not give up. It's worth a gamble."
Da, da, da
Saixi even pointed the submachine gun at Khufu and pulled the trigger with his index finger.
Countless bullets poured out.
"Funny." Seeing those bullets, Khufu shook his head, and then continued: "Longevity, can someone like you peep at it? Since you are looking for death, then I will grant you death!"
Right after his words fell, a security officer standing behind Saixi did not hesitate to raise the submachine gun in his hand and pulled the trigger.
Boom!
There was a crisp sound.
The head of the crazy Saixi burst instantly.
Red, white, and yellow liquid splashed all over the floor.
The air was covered by a strong odor of blood all of sudden...
When the archaeological experts who squatted on the ground saw Saixi's death, their mouths twitched crazily, and they all looked at Khufu. Things became completely beyond their expectations.
The next scene was even more shocking.
"Your Excellency Pharaoh."
"Sorry, Lord Pharaoh, we are late."
"Your Excellency Pharaoh."
"Your Excellency Pharaoh."
The security personnel who originally followed Saixi actually shouted at Khufu respectfully one by one.
The archaeologists were dumbfounded.
But Ye Bei, who stood by, was not surprised even a bit.
Five thousand years ago, Khufu had been a Pharaoh and had controlled countless slaves.
After five thousand years had passed, it was not surprising that the entire Egypt was controlled by him.
Hearing the shouts of those people, Khufu ignored them. When he looked at Ye Bei, he spoke again with a bit of force, "Master! I just want an answer; won't you even give me that?"
When utterance fell, all the security personnel aimed their submachine guns at Ye Bei.
In the air, those bullets were still floating as if time had been suspended.
"Master?"
The archaeological experts squatting on the ground became more and more confused, only feeling that the relationship was extremely chaotic, but at this time, no one dared to speak.
Hearing Khufu's words, Ye Bei slowly stretched out his hand, and all the bullets floating in the air fell on the palm of his hand, and then he said, "You already know the answer."
"I already know? How is it possible?" Khufu paused, those eyes were angry and revealed unwillingness at the same time, "Master, you know, from the time I appeared in the alley, my end was already doomed, but I am really unwilling."
"Think about what you said to that person just now." Ye Bei shook his head lightly and carried his hands on his back. The countless peerless artifacts in this hall were not attractive to him. When he reminded Khufu, he took a step forward and slowly walked towards the Gate of Time.
Khufu was completely stunned at this moment.
What he just said to Saixi?
Wasn't that Saixi asked himself the mystery of longevity?
"Longevity, can someone like you peep at it?" Khufu remembered that paragraph very clearly.
Then he connected with what he was doing now...
Khufu's body which was always calm shook violently.
The so-called layout of five thousand years.
The dialogue in Yard No. 99 in the alley.
He asked Ye Bei's mentality when he asked about the mystery of longevity.
Ridiculous!
What a ridiculous behavior!
When he was envious of Ye Bei and longed to be like Ye Bei... there were also countless people who wanted to be like himself.
Human desires were truly endless.
"Master, I understand!" Khufu spoke again when he saw Ye Bei approach the Gate of Time.
Ye Bei raised his foot and was about to pass through the door.
Khufu held the golden cane tightly with both hands, and his cold voice floated leisurely, full of threats, "However, I am still not reconciled. I am different from that trash Saixi... If you don't give me an accurate answer today, I will kill them all!"
The security personnel also responded quickly.
In an instant, they pointed the gun at the archaeological experts squatting on the ground.
"Then... kill them." Ye Bei's voice was indifferent. After that, his already raised foot stepped on gently.
This Khufu, even though he lived for 5,000 years, he was still very nave with a childish mind.
