Chapter 182 The Mysterious Food Pyramid
Alu and Zebula stood side by side on the top of the sand dune, their sights passed over the undulating sand dunes and focused on a looming building in the distance. The outline of the pyramid was covered by thick red sand, with only the pointed top and a few exposed corners, blending in with the surrounding sand dunes.
Ah Lu's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief on his face. He exclaimed in surprise, "Oh oh oh... that... that is... the [Food Pyramid]?"
[Little knowledge: The name of the pyramid comes from its unique appearance and shape. When observed from certain angles, its appearance is similar to the Chinese character "金", hence the name.
In architecture and archaeology, Pyramid originally referred specifically to the pyramidal tombs of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, but as similar buildings were discovered in other ancient civilizations, the name began to generalize to all pyramidal buildings.
Zebula seemed relatively calm. He ignored Alu's exclamation. He bent slightly and slid down the red sand dune quickly. The sand rolled under his feet, making a rustling sound.
Seeing this, Alu quickly followed Zebula's pace. He quickly adjusted his posture, pushed hard with his feet, and rushed down the slope of the sand dune.
When Zebula and Alu slid close to the pyramid, Alu looked up at the magnificent building in front of him. The pyramid was towering into the sky, and its appearance was a perfect pyramid. The exposed bricks and stones had become mottled and rough after years of baptism.
The four sides of the pyramid are made of huge long stones, each weighing several tons, but they are stacked tightly together. The gaps between the stones are so small that they can even be ignored. It is hard to imagine how this was done.
A Lu's mouth opened slightly, with a look of surprise and awe on his face: "It's so big... It feels like 500 meters high!"
Zebula stared at the pyramid and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Originally there was... This is only a small part of the pyramid... Just the tip of the iceberg."
Alu turned to look at Zebula, his face full of shock: "The tip of the iceberg!"
Zebra stood on the red sand dune and looked out. The echolocation map in his mind began to work. He clearly felt the magnificent outline of the food pyramid buried in the red desert. An inexplicable emotion surged in his heart: Is this a pyramid? No... What's wrong with this shape?
This pyramid is buried deep under the red desert, and most of its base is buried deep in the sand, making it impossible to see its entirety. But even with just this part, one can still feel its huge size and solid structure.
Zebra stood on the top of the sand dune, and through the skill of echolocation, the full picture of the pyramids in the red sand sea gradually emerged in his mind. They were proudly standing buildings, with a magnificent and exquisite appearance, like a perfect fusion of ancient civilization and modern technology.
The appearance of the Food Pyramid shows a magnificent and exquisite beauty. The main body of the building is made of high-quality building materials. Each stone is carefully selected and polished, making the entire pyramid look solid and beautiful.
The surface of the castle is smooth and textured, mainly using glass curtain walls and exquisite metal frames. This modern architectural style forms a sharp contrast with the ancient civilization.
On the other side of the food pyramid, I was on a ground covered with red sand. I accidentally hit my head on the ground and fell into a deep coma, with no sense of the passage of time.
I lay on the wide ground, and my consciousness gradually returned. I tried to open my eyes and try to adapt to the sudden light, but the quicksand blocked my view of the surroundings.
I struggled to sit up from the ground. The strange and bizarre environment around me made me alert. I slowly stood up and tried to make myself more awake. I recalled the scene in the red desert where I was ruthlessly swallowed by the quicksand. I didn't expect to accidentally rush into the interior of the food pyramid.
I was at a level inside the food pyramid, which was completely different from what I had seen before. The surrounding space was filled with red sand.
I looked around, feeling uneasy. At this moment, I suddenly felt a chill on my back, as if something was secretly watching me. The hairs on my body stood up, and a strong sense of fear arose.
I turned my head stiffly, and saw a huge beast crouching behind me. Its skin was an ugly purple, and its physique was surprisingly strong. Its eyes were flashing with a dark green light. Its mouth was wide open with sharp fangs, and it kept making low and terrifying roars, trying to devour me.
I instantly felt cold sweat on my cheeks, and my heart was filled with fear and despair. I subconsciously took a few steps back, trying to keep a distance from the beast. Obviously, I had mistakenly entered the beast's territory, and it regarded me as its prey.
Just when I felt desperate, a deafening roar suddenly came from behind me: "Roaring Bomb!"
I turned around and saw a huge virtual figure appear out of thin air. It was Zebra's virtual image. He stared at the beast fiercely and roared in a low and threatening voice: "Hey, do you want to watch it die?"
As Zebra's roar fell, the beast seemed to feel unprecedented pressure. Its roar gradually weakened, and a trace of fear appeared in its eyes. In a short moment, it disappeared without a trace.
I looked up at Zebra's avatar, a look of surprise on my face: "Mr. Z... Zebra!"
Zebula was suspended in the air, his eyes fixed on me, with a gentle smile on his lips: "Little boy, listen carefully, I can only say it once! You are now in the basement of the Golden Tower of Gourmet Food, and we have now arrived at the pyramid."
I looked around and saw that the surrounding environment was strange and spectacular. The internal space was so grand that it seemed like I was in a magnificent castle.
I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm. “It turns out that I have arrived inside the food pyramid. The spatial structure here is truly breathtaking.”
Zebra's virtual image slowly approached me. He raised his hand and gently patted my shoulder, with a strange arc on the corner of his mouth: "In fact, this place is more like a maze-like castle... The true face is elusive. Listen carefully, kid, you have two things to do now. First, try to survive; second, after this journey, treat me to a big meal!"
I nodded solemnly, my heart filled with gratitude and respect: "I understand Mr. Zebra!"
