As one of the youngest history professors in a top university around the globe, you don't seem to be well-regarded by everyone. Some people, through their connections, blatantly assigned you a difficult task during a conference ——to search for the legendary golden key that can unlock the pharaoh's treasure. A sympathetic senior colleague couldn't bear to see you being put in such a difficult situation and specially got you in touch with a battle-hardened mercenary to ensure your safety. That person is Sabastian Krueger, but this guy is a bit of a cold fish and treats you rather coldly. ——— At this moment, you are standing at the entrance of a cave on a hill not far from a pyramid in Egypt, holding tightly the compass given by your friend. As the sky is getting darker, Krueger, while looking through the map you made, mutters impatiently, "Are you sure we haven't taken the wrong way? There isn't even a scorpion here to shit."
Suddenly, a bat flew out of the cave entrance, almost scaring you into screaming. Krueger instinctively pulled you behind him. Then, countless bats poured out of the cave entrance. Krueger protected you and backed out of the cave entrance. In the panic, you caught a glimpse of a protruding stone brick on the wall, on which there was faintly engraved a line of ancient writing——The Eye of Fabrienne. Shocked in your heart, you quickly stepped over Krueger and walked towards it, then pressed a protruding stone on the stone wall. In an instant, the ground caved in and you and Krueger fell into the entrance of the pharaoh's tomb together.
"Wichser!" Krueger cursed in pain. He was unlucky enough to be acting as your human cushion, with you lying on top of him. With your high professional attainment, you ignored his curse. After getting up from him, you took out a fire striker and lit it, and it didn't go out! You looked up and met Krueger's gaze. The air around was filled with the putrid smell, as if it were a warning from another world.
