Chapter 24: The Golden Realm and Sagittarius

  Looking around, a golden yellow, shining brightly.

  "Wow, this is... gold! This place is all gold!! This is a kingdom of gold!!! My love, I'm coming!" Fat Dong covered his mouth with both hands and made a "tsk" sound as he took a sip. "Whoa!" He got excited, jumped up from his seat, and bounced around to the center. This really was a sea of gold, whether it was the floor, stone ceiling or walls, everything was built with gold.

  Never thought that the Great Pyramid of Giza would have a place entirely made of gold!

  Jom's eyes were wide with wonder, he elbowed Fang Ke's shoulder and muttered: "Ke, are we dreaming? How unbelievable is this?! How much gold did it take to build this?!"

  Bao Dong was completely immersed in the joy of surprise, while Jorms was shocked by this scene, only Fang Kai's expression remained unchanged. It seemed that he was not interested in gold. Or perhaps, he had sensed a crisis.

  Although the entire space was empty, with only gold, gold, and more gold, Fang Kai still felt that something was off. The three of them had already experienced the dangers of the Corpse Lake and the Stone Room, so how could they be careless in such a strange place?

  "Hey, Ke, you said... hey." Jorms nudged Fang Ke with his hand, seeing the latter's serious face, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's wrong? What a wonderful and magnificent space it is! I really want to study its structure carefully, huh." Jorms suddenly shut up, he saw Fang Ke raise his finger and place it on his lips.

  Obviously Fang Kai has made some discovery.

  Just at this moment, Jorms calmed down a bit and his thoughts came back to him, and he also felt that something was not quite right. Think about it, even if Hu Fu had been very powerful when he was alive, it would have been impossible for him to excavate so much gold to build a room! As soon as he thought of this, Jorms suddenly felt a cool breeze pass by, and his goosebumps rose up.

  Things are absolutely not so simple.

  As expected, in just a moment, Jorms saw Fang Kai's face change drastically. "Kai, you..." Jorms was about to ask when Fang Kai suddenly took a quick step and rushed behind Fat Dong, pinning him down.

  "Damn it, Ke Zi, have you gone mad? I don't want the gold, but you do, so don't stop me, go away!" Fat Dong's anger ignited, his face flushed red, he flipped over and pinned Fang Ke down, then stood up. But just as he turned around, wanting to take a step forward, a pair of iron hands suddenly clamped tightly onto his legs.

  This time, Pang Dong really got angry. He roared a sentence, intentionally using force in his legs, planning to kick Fang Kai flying. However, at this moment, the floor changed.

  Unlike the stone room with its purely natural, unpatterned floor, the floor of this space was entirely paved with golden bricks. Those crisscrossing lines suddenly lit up somehow, and a purple glow instantly filled my eyes.

  For a moment, Pang Dong stared with his eyes wide open, standing still on the spot.

  "Damn it, fatty, run back quickly!" Fang Kai jumped up and grabbed Dong's hand, pulling him towards the "cave". Qiao Mu saw this and rushed to help, dragging Dong together.

  Time flies, the bright stripes are connected to each other, gradually forming a clear picture. Next, the two-dimensional graph continues to rise, and finally becomes a three-dimensional solid!

  At this time, Pang Dong finally came to his senses. He turned his head and saw the three-dimensional figure, and couldn't help but swallow hard. "Kai, Kaizi, so you..." It wasn't until now that Pang Dong realized that Fang Kai's actions were to save him, not cut off his financial path.

  Fang Kai gritted his teeth, running and shaking his head, loudly scolding: "You're chattering like a bird, like a sissy, if you're brothers don't waste words, from now on don't be so greedy for wealth. Not every time can we save you, if you die unfortunately because of your greed for wealth, that's giving our headquarters a bad name." Fang Kai's words left Fat Dong speechless.

  Qiao Mu's glance at Pang Dong was very obvious: Fang Kai made a lot of sense.

  He stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of Fat Dong, saying with a deep tone: "What's more important, life or wealth? You think it through yourself. If you lose your life, what use is gold?"

  "Alas!" Fat Dong looked at Fang Kai, then at Qiao Mu Si, and finally let out a sigh, shaking his head. People only change their character after experiencing certain things, now Fat Dong has come to understand the importance of life.

  Although there was this little episode, the three of them continued to rush towards the "cave" frantically.

  "Whoa, we're safe." Chomps swiftly pulled out the solidifier and applied it to the entrance, re-sealing the "cave". The three of them stood firmly on their feet, finally able to see clearly what had condensed from the purple light.

  It's nothing if you don't look, but it will give you a fright once you take a glance.

  The purple light condensed into a three-dimensional solid, turned out to be a monster with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse!

  "Isn't that... Sagittarius?" Chomus swallowed hard and blurted out, while Dong and Fang stared at each other in silence for a long time.

  Why does Sagittarius, one of the twelve constellations, appear in the golden kingdom inside the pyramid?

  However, before the three could catch their breath, they were locked onto by a centaur.

  Draw your bow and shoot!

  A dazzling ray of light flashed across the sky and stabbed fiercely at the solid membrane outside the "cave".

  The light arrow shot out by Sagittarius meets with the solidified membrane outside the "cave"!

  Fang Kai and the other two were shocked in the cave, under the strong conical impact of the purple light arrow, the protective film was constantly concave inward. In less than a second, the protective film would be pierced.

  "Get down!" Suddenly, Fat Dong spread out his big hands and knocked Fang Kai and Qiao Mose to the ground. At the same time, a purple light arrow flew into the cave and brushed past Fat Dong's head. With just a slight touch, Fat Dong's hair actually caught fire.

  By the time Fat Dong realized it, his hair had already fallen off by half. His scalp was scorched and Fat Dong cried out in pain, stretching out his hand to try to put out the flames, but he was also worried that if he touched them, his hands would get burned too. Just as he was getting anxious to the point of tears, a cool sensation spread from his scalp to his brain.

  "Hmmph." Pang Dong let out a heavy sigh, and just as he raised his eyes, he saw Qiao Mu Si holding a medicine in her hand, shrugging her shoulders. Pang Dong couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, laughing: "Really thanks to you, otherwise I would have lost my life here." Pang Dong scratched his head, which had been burned into a "half-bald" state, feeling quite embarrassed.

  Jorms put away the medicine, shook his head, and said seriously: "East, it's I who should thank you. Let's not talk about this now, look quickly, the arrow shot out by Sagittarius!" Jorms helped Fang Kai up, pulled Fat Dong, and the three of them shifted their gaze to the back of the cave. The light arrow, one-fifth of which had entered the golden wall, still emitted a dazzling purple light. Underneath the light arrow, a twisted and curved "painting" was revealed.

  "What is this?" Fat Dong was very curious, and he leaned his head in, but felt a wave of intense heat. "Wow, there's this thing here, really can't get too close." Looking at the powerful light arrow, Fat Dong clicked his tongue and slightly moved his head outward. He examined it up and down for half a day, but couldn't come to a conclusion, only vaguely feeling that this "picture" was very problematic.

  Seeing Fat Dong standing stupidly under the light arrow, muttering to himself, Fang Kai and Qiao Mu Si exchanged a glance and walked forward together. They wanted to see what this sudden appearance was all about and what it meant.

  Unlike Fat Dong's confusion, Fang Kai and the other person only took a glance at the content of the "picture" and exclaimed in unison: "Cuneiform script!" The two looked at each other, nodded in agreement. Indeed, the picture that appeared under the purple light arrow was the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics.

  Joms leaned his face close to the cuneiform text, scrutinizing it carefully as he reached out a hand to touch. "When the enemy... appears... the brave... archer will raise... bow and arrow, calling forth the arrival of the remaining warriors." Joms was deciphering the message in the cuneiform text one word at a time when suddenly an extra sentence was inserted.

  He turned his head and saw Fang Kai smiling, pointing to the last paragraph of the cuneiform text. Apparently, Fang Kai had translated that last sentence instantly. "Strange, when did Kai become so proficient in cuneiform script? Even I didn't know?" Jorms frowned, looking at Fang Kai with suspicion, but the latter still wore a smile on his face, without any unusual signs.
