Chapter 64 Temple

"But look at these footprints. Hundreds of people have been here just now. This is a tourist area." Barry pointed to the ground at the entrance of the canyon and said to the two people walking in front: "And the store where I just bought something is really...

It’s not far either.”

"So?" Su Ming turned to look at him. Of course, he also saw the footprints on the ground. They were so dense that they were like ants moving. These footprints on the sand would not remain for long. They were from half an hour ago at most.

Barry appeared next to him with lightning: "So I think if someone holds a weird party in the temple, won't they be discovered?"

Bliss covered the lower half of her face with a bat cloak, and the wind and sand kept drilling into her nose and mouth: "I can tell you a bat fact, that is, the Egyptians are very good at underground construction."

Su Ming also patted Barry on the shoulder and led him forward, arm-in-arm: "The part of the Egyptian pyramid above ground is actually only two-thirds. For example, the Pyramid of Khufu, the Pharaoh's tomb is 200 feet underground, and the surrounding area is completely

It’s surrounded by huge rocks, it’s not buried by wind and sand.”

"The pyramids of the Mayans were formed by stacking stones on the ground, but the ancient Egyptians were different. They also excavated and built underground. This technology was also applied to temples." Bliss continued in that direction.

Moving forward, he said without looking back: "I thought we had been to so many pyramids before, and you would already know it when we reached the tomb chamber."

"Well, it's dark and cold all around, so..."

As Barry spoke, he stuffed the sandwich into his mouth. Su Ming felt that he must have eaten a lot of sand.

Bliss ignored him and asked Su Ming: "The entrance to the underground should be inside the temple, what do you think?"

"There may be multiple entrances. Dark energy cannot be eaten as food. They also need supplies underground." Su Ming guessed that this knowledge is not in the comics: "Look, there are security guards at the entrance of the temple. The priests are not

Probably carrying a lot of food and water, entering the gate with hundreds of tourists every day."

"But the entrance to the temple is easier to find, at least you don't have to look for a needle in a haystack." Bliss narrowed her eyes.

"Well, but if you don't want me to kill the security guard at the door, then she will be left to you."

Su Ming looked at the security guard who was running over with his baton in one hand. Anyone would probably have this reaction when they saw three men in uniform approaching cultural relics.

"Hey! Visiting time is over, you three freaks better leave."

"Oh, the tone of voice was different from what I expected. I thought this was a scenic spot." Su Ming turned to Barry and said to Barry, then he was about to touch the gun.

Barry immediately held down his hand. Su Ming drew his gun too quickly, and he had to use the Speed ​​Force.

"Although being called a freak is a bit excessive, he is obviously an ordinary person, and he would not kill anyone for it."

Bliss raised her cloak and knocked out the security guard with a backhand punch. She was relatively restrained in her attacks. She had been called a freak for more than a day or two, and she felt no fluctuation in her heart at this time.

The security guard here may have been deceived by magic, but she cannot be from the Court of Owls. How could the Court of Owls not recognize Batgirl? People from the Bird Tribe have been eyeing the descendant of the Bat Tribe for thousands of years.

Bliss could tell from the look in her eyes that this guy knew nothing at all and was just a rude security guard.

Su Ming let go of the hand holding the gun. Well, even if she wanted to give Barry some face, it would be fine as long as she didn't block the road. She just hoped that she could learn more polite words after waking up.

After stepping over the fainted security guard and entering the temple, Barry kindly dragged the security guard towards the entrance of the temple and let her lean against a pillar to avoid being buried by the wind and sand.

There is nothing decent in the temple of Set. There may have been gold or gems, but a lot of them were lost during the war years. Now only the severely weathered statues and some imitation artifacts covered in glass cabinets are left.

.

"Well, the golden staff used by the Pharaoh, but it's a fake." Su Ming knocked on the glass next to him. Under the spotlight in the display cabinet, there was a shiny long curved staff, like a Christmas one.

Candy canes, except that the one is red and white and tastes like mint, while this one is gold and blue and cannot be eaten.

"How do we find the entrance?" Barry finished his sandwich and threw the plastic wrap into the trash can.

Bliss took out a metal bead from her belt, which was her bat smoke bomb, and placed it on the ground.

"If there are passages or cavities underground, the floor above will always sink a little under the influence of the earth's gravity. We just need to find the lowest place."

The beads rolled and slid away in a certain direction. She motioned for a few people to follow her, bypassing some statues and display cabinets, passing through various slogans and explanation boards, and the beads finally stopped somewhere.

.

Bliss checked a few more times, and Xiaozhu decided that this was the place.

She took out another hairspray-like can from her belt and sprayed it in the shape of a bat on the ground. At the same time, she explained to Su Ming and Barry: "This is a bat directional explosive. It can break the ground here. You don't have to hide too far."

, just cover your face.”

Barry looked at Su Ming, stretched out his hand to cover the lower half of his face, and said in a sullen voice: "Actually, I have seen this thing in our world, but I have wanted to ask about it for a long time. It is sprayed on like squeezing toothpaste.

That’s it, why do you want to draw a bat pattern? Don’t you think it’s a waste of time?”

"..."

Bliss didn't answer him, as if she didn't hear him.

This thing dries quickly. As soon as the two of them finished speaking, a strong directional explosion occurred, but the sound was not loud. The ground in front of them broke with the sound, and the three of them fell down along with the gravel, and there was a dark passage below.

The sirens overhead blared, and powder and dust fell on the three people.

Su Ming wiped off the dirt on the eyepiece: "Do you still need to ask for this answer? Because he is Batman."

"Act quickly, let's wait until later to chat." Bliss threw two batarangs towards both sides of the corridor, and soon the darts flew back automatically. She pointed to her left hand side: "Over there, the automatic sonar has detected activity."

Barry carried the two of them, and lightning flashed in the dark passage.

The next second, the three of them appeared in a place that looked like a box in an opera house. Looking down, they could see a group of weird people in black robes surrounding countless torches.

They wear giant bone-white bird masks on their heads, and their entire bodies are completely hidden under their hoods, with their waists hunched over, as if they are imitating an ostrich.

This is the regular dress of the owl priest. The cat before was just an example. It is indeed the base camp. There are more than ten owl priests below. This is a bit troublesome. Those are more than ten magicians, not more than ten chickens.

, it takes some effort to kill.

Bliss had no metal on hand and didn't kill anyone, so she could only contain them, while Su Ming needed to kill them one by one with his fists, which would take a lot of time.

The priests gathered around a black well below and kept chanting something. Strange smoke kept coming out of the black well, and the language was completely unrecognizable. It seemed that it was not a known human language, but more like bird calls.

The three of them are all within bullet time, where they can safely discuss without worrying about being discovered by the outside world.

"There are a lot of people, what should we do?" Barry asked. He had to run around here to maintain the current state of several people.

It was Su Ming who answered him, not Bliss: "You use the speed force and lightning to contain them. Throw them out one at a time and let me deal with them. Don't let them raise their hands or speak, and don't touch the light they emit.

Or anything."

Bliss didn't say anything, which seemed to be her acquiescence to this arrangement.

Su Ming looked at her again: "While we are fighting with them, go find Bat Gold. It should be somewhere here, if it exists."

"What does it look like?" Bliss asked for more description.

Su Ming recalled: "It looks like copper, but it emits red light. It is a magic metal. The birds won't have too much in their hands, but if they do, it will not be less than a brick."

"Okay, I'll do as you say, Barry, send us into the crowd." She made the decision immediately.
