"The Holy Beetles are catching up!" the anxious voice of a team member from the last car came through the headset, "Boss, what should we do?"
"Speed up!" Sean Knight said, "Full speed ahead!"
Douglas Cooper was still a bit puzzled:
"Aren't Holy Beetles just what we call cockroaches? Flying isn't a problem, but eating people... Don't they eat shit?"
"These must be mutants," Sean Knight thought briefly and replied, "Everything under the Pyramid is pretty sinister. Think about the Ancient City Ruins we encountered in the Middle East desert. Was there anything normal there?"
Recalling the flying serpents, beetles, and scorpions they had encountered at the ruin site, Douglas Cooper nodded deeply in agreement.
"But we can't outrun something that flies..." a team member worried.
"Our car is sealed. Even if they do catch up right now, they should not be able to do much," Sean Knight comforted everyone the best he could.
