Chapter 699 The Chair Can Sit On
"It's so big, is that the real pyramid!"

A small commercial vehicle was driving in the vast desert, looking at the huge pyramid that could be clearly seen from the window on the right side of the vehicle, sitting in the last row of the city, sighed, "Although there are many cards in Duel Monster It’s the image of a pyramid, but this is the first time I’ve seen a real pyramid.”

"Hahaha, after all, in the process of me creating Duel Monster, the pyramids of Egypt gave me a lot of inspiration." Hearing the words of the city, Bekas, who was sitting in the front row of him, laughed and looked at the pyramid outside the window , and couldn't help sighing, "Revisiting the old place after so many years in the past, even me's heart can't help but feel a little excited."

Bekas found that he also seemed to be getting old. Just seeing the familiar past in his memory reappeared in front of his eyes, he couldn't help but start to recall the past. Is he already old?

The Duel Academy that was discussed yesterday is really a good proposal after careful consideration. In a few years, after a new batch of excellent card designers join the International Illusion Society, what kind of interesting cards will be born.

At the Cairo Capital Airport in Egypt, after Bekas received the Hayato and his group who landed on the plane, although they experienced many twists and turns yesterday, their trip to Egypt can be regarded as officially started, and the first stop of the trip is the distance from Cairo. Not far from Giza.

In addition to the pyramids that amaze first-time travelers and are actually scattered all over Egypt, there is another famous attraction here, which is the Sphinx.

"Wow, I really don't have a nose, it looks like it was cut off by a knife."

"Come closer to the city, your head is too big, it completely blocks my sight!"

"Hey, don't push me. My head is already attached to the glass. If you want to see it, go to the front row. There are chairs there."

"I don't want to."

Listening to the quarrel between Jouchi and Honda in the back row, Kyoko also looked away from the window, and looked at Youyou who was sitting next to her with a heavy face, wondering what she was thinking about: "What's wrong, Youyou? "

"It's nothing, Xingzi." Turning his head to look at Xingzi, You You smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "The other me just said that he has no impression of the scenery here."

This is not to say that the dark game, that is, the Sphinx in front of them when the nameless Pharaoh's soul was alive, has not yet been built. In fact, based on the analysis of the current archaeological discoveries, the construction of the Sphinx in Giza The time was far earlier than 3000 years ago. In the era of the unknown pharaoh, this magnificent and mysterious building had already stood on the earth.

Even in ancient times when information transmission was relatively slow, as a pharaoh, the dark game should have a certain understanding of the strange buildings in the country, but even for a special building like the Sphinx, the dark game still has no understanding of it. impression.

"The other game, he doesn't remember this place..." Kyoko heard the words and looked at the [Millennium Building Blocks] held in the palm of the game, her voice was a little low, and the hand in her pocket subconsciously stroked her when she was at the airport. Souvenirs purchased.

"Sphinx, what's so good about this rotten Sphinx."

Glancing at the Sphinx, Malik, who was sitting in the co-pilot, rested his chin with one hand, and said somewhat disapprovingly.As if thinking of something, he turned his head and looked at Hayato in the driver's seat, "Brother-in-law, it's really surprising that you have a driver's license that can be used in Egypt, but wouldn't it be impossible for you to drive like that?" Did you take a good look at the scenery around you?"

"Just think of me as Hate House and Wu. Let alone a sphinx, I'm not interested in even a human sphinx."

Hayato just glanced at the Sphinx in the distance and then retracted his gaze. As he said, Hayato is really not interested in the Sphinx now, but in the "Berserker" he once played In Tenet: Origins, he took pictures from various angles around the Sphinx in it.He can remember Anubis's hatred for a lifetime.

However, it is limited to the Sphinx. Egypt is not just the pyramids and the Sphinx. When he gets to the sights that he is also interested in, he will take a few more photos as souvenirs. When he went out for the first time, he deliberately brought the pink camera at home.

As for the driver's license,
"Although this is not the first time I have complained, in Japan, as long as you are 18 years old, you can get a motor vehicle driver's license. By the way, you can get a motorcycle driver's license when you are 16 years old. However, I am still two years away from the drinking age. Looking." Looking directly at the mountains in front of him, Hayato paused, and added, "The last thing to correct is, who is your brother-in-law, hello."

"Well, it's been so long, brother-in-law, why haven't you gotten used to it? Anyway, it will be a matter of time." Malik smiled, and looked down at the map spread out on his lap, "Hmm... there seems to be a small town ahead. , we probably don’t need supplies, after all, we’ve only just set off for so long.”

Although ancient Egypt is known as one of the four ancient civilizations, it is different from the only country that has been reborn from the cocoon that has survived until now. Egypt is not ancient Egypt. Because of several internal divisions, the current land area is less than The bordering countries such as Libya and Sudan are not even the size of a province in some countries.

From Cairo to the present, in fact, several people only drove for an hour, not to mention resting, and there is no need to drink or eat.

However, if you want to visit ancient buildings such as the Pyramid of Khufu and the Sphinx at close range, it is necessary to stop here for a while, transfer to camels and other means of transportation, and approach them under the guidance of a guide.And looking at the appearances of Che Li Cheng Nei, Honda and Bekas, they all seem to have the idea of ​​taking a look, and even Kyoko is so eager to try.

Although the tourism industry in Egypt is not as developed as it will be many years later, the job of guiding the way is not behind at all. The Egyptians can be said to be professional in leading the way, and even most of the antiquities in their country are brought by their own people. On the road to send abroad.

Hayato and the others didn't even need to say anything, just saw the white people who walked out of the rare luxury car and had "big dog" and "stupid people with a lot of money" written all over their faces. The beautiful Bekas, a group of locals surrounded him with great enthusiasm, volunteered to introduce himself, tried his best to sell his familiarity with the route to the pyramid, and what kind of swindlers his other accomplices were.

Just the heavily accented foreign language is enough to give Hayato and the others a headache, not to mention the micro-expressions performed by the guides in front of them in order to show the authenticity of what they said, even Bekas who has been to Egypt Also a little caught off guard.

Fortunately, however, Hayato has a trick on his side that is the best weapon to deal with the volunteer guides.

When Malik stepped down from the co-pilot seat holding a small red flag of unknown meaning that Hayato gave him, the noise from the local guides paused slightly, and they recognized Malik as an Egyptian After confirming that he was the guide hired by Hayato and his party in advance, they scattered like birds and beasts rather bored, and squatted in the shade at the entrance of the town again, waiting for the arrival of the next bully.

Although Malik is basically just a fake Egyptian who doesn't know the way at all, he can act as a guide on the surface to reject the self-promoting locals, and Bekas, the ostentatious bully on the surface, is actually the real guide of Hayato and the others.

As for why Hayato and the others are obviously rich but refuse to hire a local guide to save trouble?In Egypt, there are many ancient buildings, but there are more scammers than ancient buildings. It is not a trivial matter to get rich and then run away with the money by greedy guides. If you are unlucky, you may encounter murder and rob This is why Grandpa Shuangliu Qian reminded several people to be very careful with the guide before the trip.

This is a valuable experience that Grandpa Shuangliu, who hired two tomb robbers, gained from his own personal experience.

Relying on his money-making ability, Bekas rented a few camels for everyone to ride in a short while. The next road to the Pyramid of Khufu has no flat roads for vehicles, and there are many sandy fields. After parking the vehicle in a paid parking lot on the side of the road, a group of people took a certain amount of luggage and rode a camel to set off.

——Do you think it is that simple?

Although the camels rented by a few people are specially trained and easy for beginners to ride, but after all, people who live in the city all the year round have little chance to come into contact with live animal vehicles, just riding a soft camel Carrying the back is already quite a challenge, let alone controlling the movement of the camel freely.

Bekas, who traveled around the world alone more than ten years ago, is rich, but he is not a pampered guy. Although he has not ridden a camel for a long time, he quickly recalled the past when he stepped on the hump. He specially learned the key points of riding a camel, and controlled the camel to pace in front of Cheng Nei and Honda with ease.

"Hahahaha, although so many years have passed, I still haven't forgotten the skill of driving a camel, but this should not trouble you, Honda boy, Jouchi boy~"

Just riding a camel can be used as capital to show off, the young Bekas said like an old child.

Although Honda and Jouchi have obtained their motorcycle driving licenses long ago, their experience of galloping on the road in front of the silent and docile tall camels is of no use at all. Showing off in an accent, it took a while, and the two buddies managed to barely manage to ride the camel and give the order to move forward.

The two boys with super motor nerves are already like this on weekdays, let alone Kyoko. Although Kyoko can approach boldly if the camel is quiet, but it is a bit too much for her to ride a camel. Reluctantly and helplessly, she finally had to sit on the camel that Yu Yu was riding.

Why is Kyoko, who is usually very extroverted and not an introverted girl, so afraid of camels?Hayato didn't know the answer, but he thought, the faint smile of "planning" on Kyoko's face sitting on the game camel, must be an illusion, right?Well, it must be so.

Compared with Kyoko, Malik is the most embarrassing guy. He is obviously a native of Egypt, and he is also from the Ishdar family, a tomb guard family with a history of 3000 years. However, Malik's adaptability to this desert But even the first time I came to Egypt, I was not as good as Honda, and I couldn't even ride a camel.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't know how to ride, but this guy actually started to slack off shamelessly and just rubbed against the back row of the camel that Hayato was riding.

"You said you are an Egyptian, born in the desert and raised in the desert, why can't you even ride a camel?"

Hearing what Hayato said, Malik, who was holding on to the hump in front of him in the back row, said indifferently like a piece of hob meat: "Isn't this normal, I told you before, I was a child I haven’t been out of the tomb guarding clan’s land a few times since I was in college, do you think I have a chance to learn how to ride a camel?”

After a pause, Malik asked back, "The strange thing is brother-in-law. Well, although Muto Yuki has never learned how to ride a camel, it is understandable that people would subconsciously ride a camel when the nameless pharaoh appeared, but brother-in-law What's the matter with you, you ride more steadily than Bekas."

Regarding what Malik said, Hayato was actually a little strange.Not to mention a camel, he had never even ridden a horse before, but after riding a camel, his body subconsciously adapted to the mount under his crotch and was ready to ride. Even the camel actively responded to Hayato's body Even if Hayato didn't even hold the rein now, just Hayato had a little thought of turning, the camel under his crotch would automatically respond to turn.

"Who knows, maybe I also learned to ride a camel in Hawaii?" Hayato said casually for some reason.

"Come on, brother-in-law, I might have been bluffed by you before. Honda told me a long time ago that there is a training institution in Tongshiye City called Hawaii."

"I told you who is your brother-in-law!"

While chatting, a group of seven people rode five camels, headed towards the Pyramid of Khufu against the gradually rising sun.

Just looking at it from a long distance on the road before, everyone can feel the majestic feeling from the largest pyramid in the world—the Pyramid of Khufu. The direction of the pyramid is approaching, and the feeling of the giant being continuously enlarged in front of the eyes is even more shocking.

It's no wonder Bekas traveled the globe in this way to find inspiration for his duel monster cards.

And as the direction of the pyramid got closer, no matter it was the game or Hayato, there was a very wonderful feeling in their hearts, which was difficult to describe in words, but they could only feel as if something was calling them.

At the same time, Malik, who was sitting behind Hayato, got closer to the Pyramid of Khufu, and said with some doubts: "Strange, I should be here for the first time, right? So familiar?"

"Huh?" Froze, Malik turned his head to look at the desert in the distance, turned his head to look at the Pyramid of Khufu, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the desert, "Huh?!"

"Shouldn't it be?!"
