Professor Wei Kang was most worried about not being familiar with Egypt when he arrived in Egypt. Although he would definitely hire a guide after arriving in the local area, the guide was only a guide in geography. It would be too extravagant to expect them to have an understanding of the culture and language of ancient Egypt. I guess he could not afford to hire a guide with such ability.

When it comes to Chinese history, it is 5,000 years, and when it comes to Egyptian history, it is 7,000 years. But in fact, the history of ancient Egypt is only 5,000 years. When the era of Cleopatra ended, it was completely interrupted. The next 2,000 years is no longer the era of Pharaohs. The successors threw the culture and inheritance of ancient Egypt into the garbage dump of history. The Arabs replaced the real Egyptians and became the masters of that land.

Therefore, the Chinese are still Chinese 2,000 years ago, but the Egyptians are no longer Egyptians 2,000 years ago. The official language is Arabic.

The reason is probably because China was born in a relatively good geographical location, with plateaus and sea as natural barriers in the east, south and southwest, and other directions can ensure proper communication with foreign countries and will not be isolated from the world.

Egypt is at the strategic impetus of double-teaming between the three continents and the two seas. Since ancient times, it has been a place where military strategists must compete for. Especially in ancient times, everyone coveted this rich granary of the world. Therefore, the unlucky ancient Egyptians were taken every few decades. Not only were the cultural heritage interrupted, but the ancient buildings were frequently damaged by wars. It is said that the nose of the Sphinx was bombarded by Napoleon.

One of the main goals of this scientific expedition is to find the original Egyptian cats thousands of years ago and find decisive evidence for the domestic cat domestication process, which will inevitably intersect with archaeology and history. Wei Kang has always had no idea about this and temporarily invited Teacher Luo to give the scientific expedition team a lesson, but he also knew that this was not very meaningful, but since he learned that Zhang Zi'an understood the writing and history of ancient Egypt, he was like being injected with a cardiotonic agent, and he also fulfilled his thoughts.

"Come on, come here and get familiar with the equipment we are on, and try on whether the clothes fit." He said, pointing to the equipment and clothing piled up in the corner.

Wei Kang customized a complete set of clothes for each member of the inspection team, including short-sleeved shorts and long-sleeved trousers, sun protection clothes, cold-proof clothes, and matching baseball caps. The clothes and hats were printed with the logo of Binhai University. Wearing this outfit, I went to Egypt. First, it looked very formal, and second, if I encounter a chaotic scene, I can easily find my companions from the crowd to avoid separation. After all, the situation in Egypt is unstable.

Zhang Zian tried it briefly, and it was very suitable for the size.

His eyes turned, and saw a box containing something very special, and he couldn't help but walk over and ask, "Professor Wei, what's this?"

Wei Kang was also trying on his clothes, took a look and replied, "Oh, that's the latest model of professional drone."

"Drone?" Zhang Zian had heard of this thing, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

Wei Kang nodded, "During this scientific expedition operation in the wild, there will be drones following the entire journey. First, to record the details of the entire itinerary and as valuable information in the future; second, to be safe, once there is any abnormal movement around, the drones hovering in the air can be discovered in advance; third, to find wild animals more effectively, after all, fly high and see far."

In a portable suitcase, a drone with a very technological aesthetic is lying quietly inside. The silver-white magnesium-aluminum alloy body and carbon fiber arm are both light and sturdy. The four propellers are thin and sharp, twisted in a graceful curve.

A gimbal camera that looks like a high-end camera lens is placed in another small box, with a green film on its agile eyes reflecting Zhang Zi'an's figure.

In addition, there are many accessories such as remote control, backup battery, etc.

This thing looks quite expensive at first glance, and Zhang Zian said that Professor Wei has prepared these trips to Egypt very thoroughly.

"Xiao Zhang, I was just about to tell you about this when I went out in the wild, several of us had other things to do, such as collecting wildlife samples and taking photos, so I want to arrange for you to operate this drone. What do you think?" Wei Kang discussed.

"Me? But I haven't played with this thing." Zhang Zian really wanted to play with it. If it was an entry-level drone worth a few thousand yuan, it would be fine. This professional drone with various accessories combined for at least tens of thousands of yuan, if it falls... he really can't afford it!

"It's okay, it's very simple. Just follow the operating instructions. The current drone supporting software is very smart. There are anti-collision detections on the top, bottom, left and right, and can automatically avoid obstacles. You just need to make sure that the drone is hovering over our heads at all times, and then use the drone's eyes to find the wild animals we are looking for." Wei Kang encouraged.

Zhang Zian understood, because he was the only one in the team who was more idle and was suitable for this.

"Okay, I understand." He stopped refusing and simply accepted the task.

"Well, when you go back, you can take the drone back and get familiar with the operation." Wei Kang said, and at the same time he did not forget to remind him: "By the way, find an open space during the test flight, it is best to find somewhere in the suburbs. Never fly in the no-fly zone!"

"I see."

Zhang Zian was also very happy, almost like a child who got a new toy. I guess the clerks and elves would be surprised if they took the drone back to the pet store.

As for the test flight location, isn’t there a ready-made open space behind the pet store? Although it is not in the suburbs, no one goes there at all, so it probably isn’t a no-fly area.

Then, Zhang Zian noticed a box of strange equipment, which was not as delicate as a drone, but in numerous. Camouflage-painted rectangular boxes were neatly arranged in the suitcase, and each box had embedded lenses and sensors in front of each box.

"What is this?"

He asked questions like Liu Laolao who entered the Grand View Garden, and everything he saw was quite fresh.

"Have you seen it before? This is an infrared trigger camera." Fatty Xiao Tianyu took off his sunscreen suit with difficulty. Although it was already the largest number, he was still wearing it very tightly.

"All these?" Zhang Zian asked again.

"Yes, it's useless to bring only one of these things. Put many in areas where wild animals may appear. When warm-blooded animals or moving objects pass by the camera, they will automatically take pictures." Xiao Tianyu explained, "Because many wild animals are afraid of people, and we have limited time, we can't always wait in one place. After placing the infrared camera, you can go to other places to do other things and come back to check after the matter is finished."

Zhang Zian was secretly shocked when he heard this. Wei Kang really invested a lot this time. It seems that the possibility of success of this mission is very high. As long as there are primitive Egyptian cats in Egypt, 80% of them can be found.
