Grandpa Muto and the past of Millennium Building Blocks(1/3)

The history of the game can be traced back to ancient Egypt five thousand years ago.

In ancient times, games were once a powerful magical consciousness that predicted the future of humans and kings and determined their destiny, and these games were called the "dark game"!

But thousands of years have passed, dark games have disappeared into history, but the legend of dark games is still circulating in the world. Until thousands of years later, a game adventurer opened the door to dark games.

The sky gradually darkened, and the sun set to the horizon. The dim afterglow shone on the earth and dyed the sky red. In a desolate canyon in Egypt, there were brilliant pyramids in the distance. Under the brilliance of the sunset, the pyramids showed extraordinary sacredness.

And three people appeared here, riding camels, looking at the pyramid not far away.

Two of them were local Egyptians, wearing Indian local clothes, one with a pockmarked face and the other lacked teeth, and they were all very vulgar. They looked like they were sneaking under the overpass, pulling a sneaky person, selling discs under the coat or pimps.

The other person is an Asian, who looks in his forties, with a strong face, a weathered face, a beard and an extremely confident temperament. He is wearing a black suit and a top hat, and is extremely incompatible with the surrounding environment. He is a very charming mature uncle who can charm countless girls controlled by uncles.

"First, sir, if you want to go back, you have to take advantage of the present, and it is still time." As the sky gradually darkened, looking at the pyramids in the distance, one of the Egyptians with a tooth was trembling.

"Walking further forward is the realm of the dead. As the sun sets, darkness will devour everything, including the soul of the living." Another Egyptian said in some fear.

"Haha..." The uncle in a suit raised his lips slightly and chuckled twice, disagreed.

The King's Canyon is located in the depths of the Wadi coast of Luxor, also known as the Dry Valley. It is the burial place of pharaohs of all generations during the New Kingdom of Ancient Egypt. There are countless magical legends here.

"How big are there in this canyon, more than 60 tombs were found, but I heard that no one could reach the deepest part of the tomb of the king." Another Egyptian with a pockmark on his face said, looking at the pyramid in the distance.

"For the past three thousand years, both tomb robbers and archaeologists have been like this. At the beginning of this century, a team of British royal tombs excavated the right members. When they entered the royal tomb, only one person came out. After leaving such a sentence, they died."

"The last sentence before his death was about the 'dark game'..."

‘Dark Game!’ When I heard the words of the two Egyptians and heard the words of the Dark Game, the middle-aged uncle in a suit not only lit up, but also raised the hat on his head with his fingers and showed an excited smile.

"That is to say, only those who solve this mystery can obtain the golden treasure that is sleeping in the tomb. However, I have something to say first. We are different from you, who are ignorant of life and death." The Egyptian with toothlessness said to the uncle.

"We will take you to the entrance of the tomb of the king, and after entering, you will have to fight your life to take us to find the treasure." The Egyptian continued.

"Well, I understand. I'm not interested in treasures or something." The middle-aged man lit a cigarette and replied casually, not interested in the treasures deep in the tomb of the Egyptians.

"..." Another Egyptian with a pockmarked face looked at the middle-aged man without saying anything. With his worldview, he did not believe that anyone would be indifferent to the treasure. He was already thinking about what to do after finding the treasure.

"When the sun is like the one who wants to rob the tomb, of course you have to choose tonight." After a while, the Egyptian with a pockmarked face spoke.

Yes, these three people are tomb robbers, and the target of these three people is the cemetery of the King, which is the legendary pharaohs who have fallen asleep in the past dynasties, causing countless tomb robbers, explorers, and archaeologists to return, and even die in the Yellow Springs.

However, the three of them were not together. The two Egyptians were in the same group, and the middle-aged men in suits were alone, and the three of them were temporarily pieced together.

The two Egyptians were the local guides. They knew where the King’s Cemetery was. Without the locals, they could not find their destination in this vast desert and would only get lost.

The middle-aged people are the key to entering the depths of the King's tomb. Moreover, the middle-aged people also agreed to these two Egyptians. When they entered the depths of the King's tomb, they would pick any treasure they found, and give them all.

Moreover, he first gave the two men a large commission, and asked them to lead him. You should know that there are many legends about the King's Canyon, and except for treasures, most of them are legends such as curses. Generally, the leader will not get close to them, for fear of making taboos and getting cursed.

Even if they are moved by the commission and take risks to guide people, they will be far away from the King's Canyon. They can barely see the King's Canyon, stop and point out the direction for others, and then leave.

It is precisely because of the various guarantees of middle-aged people and the huge temptation that these two Egyptians took the risk of following them, intending to be a tomb robber and enter the legendary tomb of the King to see if they could find good things.

Although there are many rumors about the terrifying tomb of the King, there have been many people returning from the King's tomb. Those who starve to death to the timid and brave, the two gritted their teeth and agreed to the middle-aged man's words and came to the King's Canyon together.

The three of them lit a fire. After eating a little bit of food and replenishing their energy, the sky soon became completely dark. When night fell, the crescent moon hung high in the sky, and the stars filled the night sky.

"Is the time here?" The middle-aged man leaning against the rock, holding a cigarette in his mouth and closing his eyes to maintain his health, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the two Egyptians tidying up their luggage, and asked.

"It's almost done." The Egyptian, who lacked teeth, replied while extinguishing the fire.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his butt, and sorted out the suits on his body. It looked like he was not going to rob the tomb, but to attend a grand banquet.

"By sir, your dress is very special. Tomb robbers are actually wearing dresses. Although it is a bit troublesome, it is indeed not very suitable for tomb robbers." The Egyptian, with a pockmarked face, looked at the middle-aged man tidying his dress and couldn't help but speak.

"My interest is games, poker cards, chess, chess, chess in the Celestial Empire, and from underground casinos to high seas, it is my belief to express the highest respect to the opponents of the competition." Hearing the words of the Egyptian with a pockmarked face, the middle-aged man held the hat on his head and answered.

"However, if I lose in the game, I have to wear denim work clothes and use time as the price of losing." Then, the middle-aged man mocked himself and said with a smile.

"But, tonight's gambling is not something you can do by changing clothes. In short, don't be cursed as a mummy." The Egyptian with a pockmarked face reminded.

"Okay, let's go." After the three of them took their luggage, they followed the moonlight and walked towards the King's Cemetery.

"So far, I have traveled all over the world, and in all kinds of games, I am invincible. No game can stump me. However, in the game world, there is such a legend that the 'game room' hidden in the tomb of the Egyptian king will give honor to those who dominate the most dangerous territory in history." Following the two Egyptians, the middle-aged man thought to himself while holding a cigarette in his mouth.

"This is a game that no one has ever won. It is a challenge to honor and ultimately the challenge to the top of the game." The middle-aged man's eyes flashed with fiery eyes, and he thought to himself as he looked at the king's mind getting closer and closer.

This middle-aged man is like Dugu Qiubai from the game world. He traveled around the world in order to find a game that he could defeat. He spent a lot of experience and finally came to Egypt and found the legend of the game world, the legendary supreme game, and the dark game!

He intends to challenge the legend to defeat this dark game that no one can surpass in the legend.

"It's here! I tell you, no one can find this except us brothers." The three of them held up the torches and walked for dozens of minutes, and walked to a very hidden canyon. There was a hidden cave on the rock wall. The Egyptians with toothless teeth took away the things that blocked the hole and said proudly.

"Please go in first, Mr. Muto." The Egyptian with a pockmarked face said to the middle-aged man as he looked at the entrance of the cave, and he also said that the middle-aged man's surname was 'Mutou'.

To be honest, this middle-aged man was not the first guest he received by these two Egyptians. He had taken several batches of idiots who planned to enter here and challenge the dark game. However, after entering the cave, they never saw them come out again, and the two of them did not take any risks, and had never entered the cave and reached out, and had only explored at the edge of the cave entrance.

"No problem." When the middle-aged man heard the words of the Egyptians with pockmarks, he was not at all. He was angry because he was a guinea pig and responded casually.

The three of them walked to the entrance of the cave and held a torch. The fire illuminated the cave. It was a manual-cut downward passage. There were Egyptian characters and patterns on the walls. However, due to time, most of them had fallen off and cracks appeared on the walls.

"Walk down the passage, about thirty meters deep, there is no problem wherever you go." The Egyptian, with a pockmarked face, raised the torch in his hand and looked at the passage and said to the middle-aged man.

His meaning is very obvious. There is no problem with the thirty meters of the passage, and it is safe, but something may not necessarily happen to the road afterwards.

The middle-aged man was not scared by his words, and held a torch and took a simple step, walking along the passage.

Sure enough, after walking down the passage for more than 30 meters, I arrived at a relatively spacious place with a door. On both sides of the door, there were two statues of Egyptian soldiers more than two meters high. I held a spear in my hand and aimed at the location of the door. It seemed that someone was walking past the door and was about to pierce it.

However, as time goes by, these two lifelike statues have become broken, and the walls on the left and right sides of the stone gate are all pictographic characters from ancient Egypt.

"This should be the entrance to the front room, with warnings written in ancient texts engraved on the door." The middle-aged man said, standing in front of the stone door, looking at the hieroglyphs written on the walls on both sides of the stone door.

After entering the passage, the team of these three people has become the middle-aged man. The two Egyptians did not know the depth of the tunnel and what was going on. If they wanted to find the hidden treasure, they could only rely on the middle-aged man.

"In front of the whole, it is the great pharaoh's...sleeping realm, those who dare to offend will be punished by God, their bodies will be rotten, and their souls will be buried into the darkness..." Looking at the words of belief on the wall, the middle-aged man slowly recited.

"Hey, can you understand ancient words?" The Egyptian, who looked pockish when he saw the middle-aged man read the warning on the wall, said in surprise. Although he felt a little scared because of the middle-aged man's words, he was not afraid of the curse of the Pharaoh.

"Well... even I feel incredible." A drop of cold sweat was left on the middle-aged man's forehead.

Although the middle-aged man is proficient in games and is a game adventurer, he is not an archaeologist or a linguist. He doesn't understand any ancient Egyptian characters at all. However, he just understands it by no means. As for why he understands it, he himself doesn't know why.

The middle-aged man had already felt the unusual breath here, but this not only did not scare him, but instead made him excited and the blood in his body boiled.

Without too much delay, the three of them walked into the door directly. The torches in their hands illuminated the scene behind the dark stone door.

"This is!!" When the fire light illuminated the scene inside the door, the three of them not only shrank, but their faces changed drastically. They were frightened and couldn't help but take a step back. They saw countless corpses, dozens of which were as many as the tip of the iceberg.

"The pile of corpses of the tomb robbers, the wreckage of the losers?" The three of them calmed down and came back to their senses from the initial shock. After calming down, the middle-aged man waved the torch to illuminate the surroundings. Looking at the ground and the walls, the corpses with only bones left, he spoke.

"It seems like a difficult time here, game room!" The middle-aged man waved the torch in his hand and tried his best to illuminate the surroundings. His eyes moved away from ignoring the corpse, looked at the room behind the stone gate, and spoke.

The room is very large, about the size of a football field, and the three of them are standing on the stone platform at the door. In front of the stone platform, there is a maze-like, crooked narrow path.

The narrow path is barely enough for two people to walk side by side, and there are no so-called guardrails on the left and right sides of the narrow path. Looking down, there is endless darkness. It is obvious that if you accidentally fall from the narrow path, you will definitely be without any corpse.

On the narrow path, there are dozens of Egyptian warrior statues with more than three meters of masters holding scimitars and spears in each position. The weapons held by these statues are mottled and dry, with dark brown blood stains. Moreover, there are also corpses hanging on the weapons of the statues, as if a person died after being penetrated by a weapon, and the bodies were hung on the weapons, leaving only white bones.

"Ah! Ah!! Everyone will be killed here. It's not too late. If you go back, it's still time to go back! Let's go back!!" Looking at the vast room, the bottomless abyss, and countless witnesses with their lives, the countless corpses that were dangerous here, the Egyptians with tooth were frightened and trembled all over and persuaded him with trembling mouths.

"It's so noisy! It's all here! I can't look back!" His voice shocked the Egyptians with a pockmarked face. After coming to their senses, they immediately reached out to grab the collar of the Egyptians who had missing teeth and shouted loudly.

"Brother, brother, but..." The Egyptian who lacked teeth wanted to say something.

"Listen, we are not going to take this risk. He will pass this game. We are just taking the treasure away, just like the previous agreement. And if something happens..." Before the Egyptian with toothless words were finished, the Egyptian with a pockmarked face interrupted and whispered in his ear.

As he said that, the Egyptian, with a pockmarked face, reached into his bag and took out something, which was a revolver.

"Haha, so, there's nothing to worry about, don't worry." The Egyptian with a pockmarked face put the revolver back into his bag and patted his brother's teeth and said in a low voice.

"Ah...well, then, okay." The Egyptian, who lacked teeth, swallowed and nodded when he saw the revolver.

Just as the two Egyptians were talking sneakily behind, the middle-aged man ignored them at all. He was looking at the layout of the room, looking at the narrow labyrinth like a maze in front of the stone platform. He could see at a glance how he got from this side to the other side.

It is obvious that this first level is not a maze, and it is as narrow as a narrow path. It is so simple if the corpse falls down.

"Think about it, think about it carefully. If you just blindly move forward, you will definitely die. What is the key to this game?" The middle-aged man looked at the narrow man carefully, looked at the corpses, and analyzed in his heart.

"Hey! Why are you standing there? Let's go!" The Egyptian, who had a pockmarked face, saw the middle-aged man holding a torch and stood there, motionless and doing nothing. After waiting for a while, he urged impatiently.

‘Crack!’ And at this moment, the Egyptian with a pockmarked face accidentally stepped on something under his feet, making a crisp sound, and what he stepped on was a floor that was only a millimeter higher than other floors, and the floor was now being stepped on.

Anyone with some common sense can know that there will only be one consequence of this happening in the ancient tomb, that is, the mechanism!

‘Bang!’ The next second, the stone gate where the three of them were behind them suddenly dropped a large piece of stone, blocking the door tightly.

"What, what's wrong! What happened!?" The Egyptian, who lacked teeth, was startled and shouted in panic.

‘Click!’ With the sound, huge spikes stretched out rows of stones blocking the stone door, and they also connected the surrounding spikes and moved slowly forward.

"Ah! The door is closed! The wall covered with thorns is coming!!" Seeing the various reactions of the mechanism, the Egyptians with toothless shouted loudly in panic.

They could clearly see, and on the walls covered with thorns that slowly approached them, countless corpses were hanging on the spikes. The thorns pierced through their mouths, chests, abdomen and other places, making people shudder at first glance.

"Damn it! You can only move forward now!" The middle-aged man saw the mechanism approaching, and the stone platform was not big, so he didn't hesitate for a long time. He had not found it yet. Through the key points of this game, he had not even fully understood the game. However, now he could only grit his teeth and move forward, otherwise they would have to be pierced by the spikes on the wall and died.

When the middle-aged man had just run onto the narrow path and ran to the stone platform opposite along the maze-like narrow path, suddenly, on the narrow path, the statues suddenly moved.

"What!? The statue blocked the way forward!?" The middle-aged man didn't run far, but the statue slowly stood in front of him.

‘Swish!’ And this statue is not just a blocking road. After approaching the middle-aged man, the statue held the weapon and swung it down suddenly, looking at the middle-aged man with a knife, which was so fast that it even brought the wind.

"Ah!" The statue's sudden attack scared the middle-aged man. However, the middle-aged man did not react slowly and immediately leaned back and avoided the knife. However, the wind brought by the knife blew on his face, irritating his skin to ache.
To be continued...
