Apocalypse sits on it, like a king and god who dominates everything.

He looked down at Luke below, and asked generously, "So, human, what reward do you need?"

"I can make you a noble mutant, give you extraordinary abilities, and allow you to follow me."

This is the thinking of Apocalypse.

He used to be a pharaoh, a god, and has always been worshiped by the secular world.

Therefore, being able to follow yourself is considered a supreme honor.

Besides, according to Apocalypse's idea.

Humans are extremely backward in terms of evolutionary level, quite backward, completely inferior to mutants.

Turning a human into a mutant is a great reward.

"Sorry, I don't need these 'gifts', great En-Sabah-Nur."

Luke lacked interest and directly refused.

He has nothing in common with this old guy who has been asleep for too long and has a rigid mind.

"Heh, I haven't experienced the feeling of being rejected for a long time."

Tian Qi said angrily.

He is the noble pharaoh, the great god.

Only others have ever begged and catered to themselves.

But the human being in front of him actually showed a look of "not interested".

unacceptable!

"My reward will never be taken back..."

Apocalypse said in a low voice.

Energy rays radiated out, covering Luke who was standing in place.

You know, Mr. Ominous Nathaniel Essex.

He almost knelt on the ground and licked Apocalypse's shoes before he got the chance to become a mutant.

How could this human being deny himself!

Apocalypse doesn't allow it!

The energy rays attempted to infiltrate Luke's body, transforming him into a mutant.

but--

The latter directly opened the biological force field, isolating that powerful energy light.

"Who are you?"

Tian Qi was shocked, and his eyes burst out.

"Since you asked sincerely, then I will..."

Before Luke could tell the story, the pyramid shook violently, like an earthquake.

Chapter 278 Tomb Raider Team, Two Suns

Ancient Egypt, one of the four ancient Ming kingdoms.

It is located in northeastern Africa, in the middle and lower reaches of the Nile River, which is now the Middle East.

Regarding this place, it can be summed up by "one ancestor, two ethnic groups, three diasporas, four wars".

Because of its special geographical location, it is a transportation hub between East and West.

Coupled with religious differences, this area has been in a state of chaos all year round.

Of course, there are also reasons for major powers to intervene and intervene.

Most people's impression of ancient Egypt may be the dark and quaint temple buildings, the magnificent pyramids, and the mysterious Sphinx.

In fact, apart from the above, the earliest mutant organizations also appeared here.

Compared with Europe and North America, the Middle East, where the three religions and nine streams live together, is actually more convenient to hide oneself, and there are fewer rejections and persecutions.

Plus, Apocalypse, the oldest mutant on Earth, was born in ancient Egypt.

After he became a noble pharaoh, he transformed all the loyal guards around him into mutants.

Later Tianqi fell into a deep sleep and was gradually forgotten.

But those mutants who have been transformed continue to develop their compatriots and grow stronger.

In the Middle East, every powerful warlord or religious leader.

More or less, they have a few mutants as their secret weapons.

Turn the time back to 10 minutes ago.

outside the pyramid.

The endless yellow sand desert.

A team of people is actively digging.

Judging by their attire, they look like caravans walking in the desert.

But judging from the behavior, they are more like a group of grave robbers.

Pyramids are the tombs of ancient Egyptian kings, rulers known throughout history as "Pharaohs."

Due to the profound influence of religion, the ancient Egyptians formed a deep-rooted "idea of ​​the afterlife".

They believe that the world is only a temporary residence, and that after death they can obtain eternity.

Therefore, every ancient Egyptian, especially the noble class.

They will carefully prepare their graves in order to obtain eternal life after death.

And the Pharaoh's mausoleum pyramid, which means "the ladder to the sky", is naturally more magnificent and shows his magnanimity.

When they die, all kinds of precious jewelry and antiques will be used as funeral objects.

Those rulers enjoyed great honor during their lifetime, but after death they still desire to bring power and glory to the underworld.

It's just that they don't know that using a magnificent building like a pyramid as a mausoleum can not only show its own strength and majesty, but also attract an endless stream of tomb robbers.

For example, now.

"Are you sure it's here?"

A rough man with a beard asked with a frown.

"What I'm looking for is the pharaoh's tomb, like Tutankhamun's ancient tomb, which can make us a lot of money!"

Tutankhamun was also a pharaoh in Egypt. His tomb was located in the Valley of the Kings and was later discovered by a British archaeologist.

The funerary items inside are priceless, and just the gold mask weighing ten kilograms and inlaid with various gemstones can be auctioned for a sky-high price.

According to statistics, the museum values ​​some of the excavated antiques and gold, which can be as high as [-] million pounds.

This is an astronomical amount, enough to drive anyone crazy.

Since the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, the archaeologists who participated in the development work have all become rich overnight, attracting countless envious eyes.

Correspondingly, the Valley of the Kings, which is dedicated to the burial of pharaohs and their concubines, is also full of pits.

Every place where treasure may be buried has been enthusiastically patronized by tomb robbers.

"Caliban will not lie. I can feel that there is a pyramid under here. It has not been discovered and is buried underground."

A bald man with albinism said in a positive tone.

His name is Caliban, and he is an alpha-level mutant.

It has excellent perception ability, not only can detect nearby compatriots, but also can detect terrain, it can be called humanoid radar.

"Hope you don't make a mistake."

The bearded man said with a warning tone.

"Archaeological work" in ancient Egypt is one of the hottest investments in recent years.

Many wealthy nobles like to find a few archaeologists, and then give money and people to find the tomb of the pharaoh.

As long as you succeed once, the rewards will be extremely rich.

Just like the great voyage that was once popular, the royal family and nobles sponsored navigators. They discovered the New World and brought back gold and spices.

"Caliban can't go wrong."

The bald man seemed to be afraid of the sun, and covered himself with a hood.

He is the most famous black market dealer and intelligence broker in the Middle East.

As a mutant, not only was he not discriminated against, but he was also very successful.

"Let's dig down, you will definitely get a surprise."

Caliban hides in the shadows, and in his perception, there is a magnificent pyramid underground.

Judging from the specifications and scale, it will definitely not be much worse than Tutankhamun's tomb.

The deal between him and the bearded man is that he only needs to find a pyramid tomb that has not been visited by tomb robbers.

You can get a generous reward and get the protection of private armed forces.

The bearded man is a great warlord in the Middle East, and the origin of the employer behind him is even more mysterious.

It belongs to the object that Caliban cannot offend.

"found it!"

Someone dug the entrance to the pyramid.

"The inside is sealed and can only be blasted open with explosives!"

When the bearded man heard that the entrance was sealed, his eyes showed a hint of joy.

This means that it has not been patronized by tomb robbers, and it is a complete mausoleum like a virgin land.

"Blast it! Blast it for me!"

the bearded man yelled.

He was employed by an organization in the United Kingdom to find ancient relics, such as pyramids and pharaoh's coffins.

Certain rich and powerful Brits seem to be interested in occult powers.

Every time there is news in this regard, I will take the initiative to contact myself and provide a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Well done, Caliban! Sure enough, you are of some use."

The bearded man was very satisfied, and he didn't hesitate to praise him.

Soon, the explosives were set.

Boom!Boom boom boom!

A huge sound wave erupted, shaking the gravel on the ground.

The entrance to the interior of the pyramid has been unimpeded.

"Send a team in first! Check out the situation!"

The bearded man commanded.

In order to prevent tomb robbers from destroying the tomb and disturbing the pharaoh's sleep.

At the beginning of the construction of some pyramids, various organs will be designed.

After those uninvited guests died, there were also horror stories of "Pharaoh's curse", "entangled ghosts" and so on.

"If you can find some good things, the British guy should be more generous."

The bearded man is dreaming a sweet dream. If a local warlord like him can lick the British, he might have a better development in the future.

"and many more"
