When Oman's body heavily collided with the ground, he felt a strange sense of confusion and disorientation. At first, he couldn't even be sure if he was still conscious or if he was seriously injured. The sand surrounded him like an invisible ocean, making his vision blurry and breathing difficult.
Lying on the ground, he tried to focus and make sense of his surroundings. The sand was soft and fine, cushioning his fall, but also adding to his bewilderment. Oman struggled to free himself from the grip of the sand, using his hands to brush off the grains while awkwardly sitting up.
Sand entered his mouth and nose, causing him to cough. He opened his mouth, trying to inhale fresh air, but only felt his throat being irritated by the rough grains of sand. After a series of coughs, he finally managed to regain some breath. Then, he exerted effort to brush away the sand on his face, allowing himself to see the surroundings. At this moment, they not only survived a sudden fall, but also discovered a hidden underground space.
At this point, sunlight streaming in from the opening above acted as a guiding light, illuminating their location. Oman looked up and saw the worried faces of Dr. Sela and Lao Zhong, their voices filled with concern and tension: " Oman! Max! Are you both okay?" Sela's voice came from the opening.
Oman responded hoarsely, "We're okay, no injuries."
At this moment, Max also emerged from the sand, shaking his head and coughing to clear the sand from his throat. They were both alive and unharmed, a miracle. Oman slowly stood up, his eyes wandering through the dilapidated temple structure, astonished by their unexpected discovery. Despite the temple's severe damage from age and the majority of its structure being covered in sand, it still exuded a mysterious and ancient aura. It was not just the remnants of a historical relic, but more like a gateway to the past, a world full of unknowns.
Max also stood up in amazement, his face filled with surprise and excitement: "My goodness, is this real? We have actually discovered such a place!"
Oman explored the surrounding environment, where he could see ancient mural remnants and carvings. Despite being eroded by time, he could still vaguely discern some patterns and symbols. He attempted to analyze these patterns, searching for possible hidden history or stories.
At the opening above, Dr. Sela and Dr. Lao Zhong anxiously inquire about their situation. Oman shouts up, "We're fine! There's an ancient temple below, and we're going to explore it here."
Max nods in agreement and begins checking his adventure tools and equipment. They know that this unexpected discovery could be a crucial turning point in their expedition, perhaps revealing the secrets of the lost empire and the Solar Eyes.
Oman picked up his notebook and began recording everything he observed, filled with both excitement and endless curiosity. They knew that this would be a rare exploration, a chance to possibly change their understanding of ancient Egyptian history.
In this time-forgotten space, Oman and Max carefully explored. They noticed that the exits around them were all blocked by sand, the sedimented sand serving as silent witnesses of hundreds of years, quietly telling the story of this place.
On the ground, scattered bones and remains caught their attention. These white bones seemed to be relics from ancient times, covered by dust until now. This astonishing discovery filled Oman with curiosity and unease. Whose remains were these? What fate had befallen them here?
In the center of the temple was an altar inscribed with ancient hieroglyphs. Oman gazed at the characters, realizing they were unlike any ancient Egyptian script he had studied. He attempted to decipher the symbols but found himself clueless. These mysterious symbols seemed to hold some profound meaning, perhaps directly related to the secrets of a lost empire.
Max carefully examined the remains, trying to determine their origins. He noticed pottery shards and other tools near the bones, which could be crucial in understanding the history of this place.
In this ancient space, the two seemed to step into a corridor of history, with each step being an exploration of the past. Oman understood that the secrets hidden here far exceeded their imagination, and they had to carefully conduct each investigation to uncover the mysteries concealed within the temple's history.
Oman's gaze was tightly locked on that broken altar. The cracks on the altar seemed to be the result of long-term natural erosion, but at the same time, it also felt somewhat inexplicable. These cracks seemed to indicate that the altar had experienced some kind of strong vibration or impact.
The broken frame seemed to have been used to place ritual implements, but now only the broken outline remained. Oman carefully examined every detail of the frame, trying to find any possible hidden clues. He noticed that some parts of the frame seemed to have been deliberately broken, which made him curious - did this mean that some event had occurred here, leading to the destruction of the altar?
The obvious crack on the surface of the platform, spreading from the center, seemed like an ominous omen. Oman crouched down, carefully examining every inch of the crack, wanting to know if it hid the secret of the lost empire, or the true cause of the destruction of this altar.
As he observed, various hypotheses began to form in Oman's mind. Was this altar related to Solar Eyes? Was it once a place for performing some important ritual? What is the story behind these cracks? Oman realized that these mysterious symbols and cracks might be the key to unraveling the entire mystery of the lost empire.
He stood up, his face showing a thoughtful expression. This discovery was undoubtedly important, but it also brought more questions. Oman knew he needed more information and evidence to uncover the secret of this altar.
