Smelting everything from pirates

Chapter 627 Make money, not shabby!
"Colonel Leslie is in trouble. The nameless pyramid we were looking at has been surrounded by a university from the United States. What should we do now?" In the British army stationed area in Cairo, a The soldier looked at Colonel Leslie with a very frightened face and asked.

Colonel Leslie, who was smoking a cigar as if nothing had happened, immediately stood up from his seat when he heard this passage.

"Who in the world poked this out?"

"I don't know. It wasn't until a day ago that a group of people came to build our army and said they wanted to rent two military trucks. At that time, I didn't know that a group of teachers and students from American universities were going to investigate there. A nameless pyramid, I rented military vehicles to them at that time, I also wanted to earn some money, it’s not shabby, but no matter how I think about it, such a thing will happen.”

Hearing this soldier's rambling, Colonel Leslie felt very upset.

There is not much oil and water to be squeezed in Cairo, Egypt, a ghost place. After all, it is too close to Europe. Every day, tourists from Italy and Spain are in Cairo, Egypt.

They didn't dare to go too far. If they wanted to make money, they could only dig out some gold from the ground through archaeological methods.

More than a month ago, they found a nameless pyramid and planned to dig up that nameless pyramid when the time was right.

Then he will become a great explorer when the time comes, but the headache now is that a group of college students and teachers from the United States surrounded that unknown pyramid.

Leslie gritted his teeth, then put down the cigar in his hand, looked at the soldier in front of him and said, "It is absolutely impossible to hand over that unknown pyramid to those teachers and students, they don't even know what archeology and exploration are." , now call everyone to me!"

However, those who are investigating around the Nameless Pyramid are from the United States.Teachers and students of Miskatonic University, holding various instruments in their hands, are investigating the situation around the unknown pyramid.

I want to know whether this pyramid can be opened from the outside or whether it needs scientific maintenance.

However, at this time they saw the wind and dust billowing in the distance, and at a glance they saw a lot of military vehicles rushing toward them.

This made Professor Wald and Professor Hawkins feel particularly strange and have some doubts in their hearts.

Why did people from the military suddenly come here.

A gust of wind and sand hit the face, and the military truck heard the side of Miskatonic University. A man got off the truck, with a cigar in his mouth and a pistol on his waist.

But before he even put on his military uniform, he picked up the pistol in his hand and walked to the side of the teachers and students of Miskatonic University.

Seeing this scene, Professor Hawkins frowned slightly, and at the same time set his eyes on Professor Walder.

These two professors from Miskatonic University have definitely seen the big world, but although they have some extraordinary abilities, they are definitely not opponents in the face of an established army.

I saw Professor Hawkins walked up to the officer with a smile and said, "I don't know what's the matter for you to come here, sir?"

Colonel Leslie directly pushed Professor Hawkins away, walked to the side of the pyramid, opened his hands and said loudly: "From today on, this pyramid is not allowed to carry out any scientific research and development. I'm going back!"

After saying this sentence, he waved his hand directly, and the personnel carriers behind Colonel Leslie quickly surrounded the unknown pyramid.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers ran down from the troop carrier, all carrying submachine guns. The college students from Miskatonic University had never seen such a battle before, and they looked very frightened.

But Professor Wald's eyes narrowed slightly. Of course, he knew what Colonel Leslie in front of him was here for, and he must have come to rob graves.

But looking at the current situation, it is obvious that the enemy is strong and we are weak. It is impossible for Professor Wald to lead the teachers and students of Miskatonic University to fight directly with the hundreds of soldiers in front of him.

So I could only take the teachers and students to the two vehicles I rented.

"Since sir, you want to develop the Nameless Pyramid, please allow us to observe it here, okay?"

Professor Hawkins walked up to Colonel Leslie and spoke.

Colonel Leslie looked up at the white hair and beads of sweat on Hawkins' forehead, and knew in his heart that at this time, he must not be able to shoot people directly, otherwise his future would be ruined.

So I could only grit my teeth, watched Professor Hawkins nodded, and added: "It's still okay for you to watch and observe here, but I have a requirement, that is, not to be too close to us, everything we have developed None of you can report it, you can only describe it within the scope of our permission."

Hearing what Professor Leslie said, Professor Hawkins nodded slowly. Under such circumstances, they had no choice but to investigate. They also had no chance to find another unknown pyramid without an owner.

However, on the several hills to the east of the pyramid, on top of those sand dunes, there seemed to be several strong people crawling.

The voices of those people were extremely hoarse, and they said, "What's going on? How could someone from the army suddenly come here?"

"More than a month ago, it seemed that an army of explorers came here and discovered the Unnamed Pyramid, but we didn't do anything at that time, because Randolph Carter also came here, mainly focusing on Randolph Carter. on the body."

"When all this group of people are killed at night, we only need to wait more than ten days, and our goal will be achieved. This has nothing to do with us after they die."

The few people lying on the sand dunes are ghouls from the Arabian desert. Compared with normal people, ghouls not only have the strange habit of eating their own kind and corpses, but also possess Beyond the physical fitness and intelligence of normal human beings.

It's just that they usually put their intelligence on other places, such as how to hunt the same kind, how to slaughter humans, and how to eat better human flesh and blood.

Generally speaking, it is a group of monsters that are extremely disgusting and need to be exterminated.

On the other hand, on Barrett's side, following behind Lancelot, Barrett was observing the overall structure of the entire ravine, and dug out a large number of human bones at the foot of the mountain.

After taking a look, there are indeed many scars left by ancient combat weapons on the bodies of these human bones.

Even the chest with many human skeletons was directly pierced by the spear.

But unfortunately, all the metal utensils in this ravine were taken away by those tomb robbers and so-called adventurers, leaving only bones.

And those complete bones have been taken away by other humans and sold for money. In this world, everything on humans is actually very expensive, even the human skeleton after death.

Therefore, the bones and ribs that Barrett found here were all irregular and irregular, that is to say, they could not be sold for any price.

Even so, among the incomplete wreckage, Barrett really found many traces similar to human teeth gnawing.

"A long time ago, there was definitely a ghoul order, but the question is whether that order is still in Cairo."

Looking at the one-inch white bone in his hand, Barrett fell into deep thought, and at the same time turned his gaze to the distance. At this moment, the horizon was already more and more embracing the sun in his arms.

There was only a red light in the distance, which slowly turned purple and shone on Barrett's lips, making Barrett's lips a little dry.

Lancelot, who was standing next to him, kept silent, but frowned and looked in another direction. The direction he was looking at was the Nameless Pyramid.

Night fell quickly, and Barrett and the others did not drive away from this ravine, but took advantage of the darkness to search for more evidence of the existence of ghouls.

Occasionally, Barrett conducted some simple science popularization about ghouls with Lancelot. As for the specific things, he didn't say much, but even so, it opened Lancelot's eyes.

The emergence of an intelligent life that feeds on human beings in this world is indeed extremely terrifying, but also extremely exciting.

Lancelot, who followed Barrett, even muttered in his mouth that he wanted to write a novel with ghouls as his enemies.

However, around the Nameless Pyramid, nearly a hundred ghouls have surrounded the Nameless Pyramid.

In the dark light, the dark green eyes are slowly shining like will-o'-the-wisps.

Professor Wald, who was sitting in the tent, slowly opened his eyes. There seemed to be a ray of light shining in his eyes.
