During this period, Ian's name also spread across the internet.
Many people thought of a question after reading Egyptian Chronicles—would there really be so many exciting adventures in the ruins?
Many readers who had finished reading the novel heard that Ian was live streaming. Thus, they rushed into Aika's live stream room.
"Host, host, can you ask Ian if the things he described in the novel are real?"
"I've finished reading Ian's Egyptian Chronicles. The mechanisms in the novel are too scary. There are also pockets made of human skin. Are these real or fake?"
"Ian predicted the pyramid and the Sphinx. Could everything in the ruins be real?"
"..."
Countless viewers sent out bullet comments. Now, no one doubted the authenticity of the ruins that Ian had depicted in his novel.
With the facts in front of them, even the stubborn trolls had nothing to say.
However, the Egyptian Chronicles' content did not stop there.
Many people still doubted whether the content of the second half of the novel about the main character's adventures was real or not.
Aika looked at Ian, not knowing how to answer those questions.
The author was right there, so she had no right to speak.
Ian glanced at the camera and said coldly, "It's all true."
It was not that Ian was deliberately cold.
He knew that no matter what he said, there would be doubts about him. He wanted to shut these disgusting people up. The only way was to take out iron-like evidence and directly ride it on their faces. Therefore, the most important thing now was to bring people to dig and check the pyramid's interior.
They would find more valuable and powerful relics in the pyramid's inner palace.
Proving it to these people was secondary, however.
He still remembered the system's reward for signing in.
He would only use the interface to bring people in, and he would come back after signing in alone.
As for the rest, it was just something he did along the way.
...
Seeing that there were many new viewers, they did not know what had just happened.
"What happened?"
Aika looked at the bullet screen and immediately explained, "Dear viewers, today we are live broadcasting the excavation of the pyramid. During the excavation, a huge black sandstorm suddenly appeared. We need to wait in this base for the storm to recede."
Aika aimed the camera outside of the window. The gray dust was like countless hiding monsters.
Compared to the huge pyramid, the Sphinx statue in the distance was a little smaller.
Many in the audience looked at the scene that looked like the end of the world.
They were all amazed.
Many people were filled with anticipation and worry for the excavation work that was to come.
They were both looking forward to the excavation of cultural relics so that they could find more valuable cultural relics and continuously increase the thickness of human history.
They were also worried that they would encounter all kinds of traps and danger as described in Ian's novel.
Ian naturally knew this as well.
"Let's go!" He said. looking where everyone was resting, "After the sandstorm passes, who is willing to go with me to the mausoleum and be the first batch of explorers?"
This trip would not be good for a small number of people because the mausoleum was full of traps, so there was a lot of equipment that needed to be brought along to deal with these problems.
Only with more people could they deal with these problems.
"I'll sign up! Count me in."
Aika, who was live streaming, was naturally the first to volunteer and raise her hand.
Ian had saved her professor, so she would naturally do her best to repay Ian.
Upon seeing Aika raise her hand, many members of Schubert's team also raised their hands.
Professor Schubert was their leader, and they had deep feelings for him.
Ian had saved them during the sandstorm, so they owed him a favor.
Naturally, everyone was very supportive of him.
Seeing that more and more people were signing up, Ian stopped to recruit.
Although he needed more people, it wasn't 'the more, the better'. There were too many people, and he could not guarantee their safety.
He asked Aika to count the people who had signed up.
The list of the first excavation team was confirmed just like that.
During this period, many experts talked to Ian about whether he could bring them along.
Ian looked at their white hair and bodies that looked like they were going to collapse when the wind blew.
"Do you think you can do it?"
"Hehe, young man, I don't want to brag—"
"Alright, sir, you should rest."
Ian smiled as he watched the experts complain that their age was not an issue. The adventurers who appeared in the front lines must be in good health.
No one knew what mechanisms or passages waited for them in the mausoleum. If they became a burden to the team at this time, no one could guarantee that they would have the physical strength to save them.
They might even have to sacrifice another person's life.
Many experts also knew this, but they were not willing to accept it.
They looked at these young people enviously.
If they were 30 or 40 years younger, it would be none of their business. It was a pity for the pile of precious cultural relics in the mausoleum.
At this thought, their eyes turned red!
The greatest dream of an archaeologist in their life was to excavate cultural relics that would leave their names in history!
However, they also felt gratified.
When they saw these young faces, even if they died a few years later, these young fellows would continue to carry forward their spirits in the archaeological world and pass on their legacy.
"Look!"
"The sandstorm outside has stopped!"
Many people had been paying attention to the weather outside the window and immediately cried out in surprise.
At that time, Aika pointed the camera out of the window.
The originally dark and hazy sky outside gradually became bright.
The originally violent wind had already stopped.
The surrounding sand seemed to be covered by golden silk.
Under such a calm surface, no one would have thought that this was the sandstorm that had almost swallowed Schubert and Ian.
The desert looked very calm on the surface.
When there was no wind, it was like a scenery.
When it was violent, it was like countless crying and howling demons.
The sky gradually began to clear up.
Only then did everyone clearly see the face of the ruins buried under the yellow sand.
The Sphinx that was originally buried deep underground had half the body of a lion and half the head of a human.
From afar, it looked like a giant beast.
It quietly guarded the pharaoh's pyramid.
Such a strange stone statue had never been seen before in history.
"It's mine!"
"This is an important archaeological discovery!"
"No, look at the back! What's that! Why is it so big!?"
The sudden voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"What is it... F*ck!"
An incomparably huge building with an even larger Sphinx was displayed in front of everyone.
The sandstorm just now was like a giant hand, sweeping away the dust of history.
It allowed these truly shocking things to be displayed to the world.
When Ian heard the staff member's exclamation, his eyes instantly lit up.
He hurriedly walked over and took a closer look.
Whether it was the Sphinx or the pyramid, they were much bigger than those back on Earth!
