15 Archaeology Professor Dies. It's A Complete Mess!

"Help! Save us!"

"Captain Bill…"

When he sensed that the berserk ladybugs were under Vincent's control and were about to attack them, Professor Kohler hurriedly asked the captain of the special forces squad for help.

Sh*t!

If he had known that there was a so-called gravekeeper here who could control all kinds of monsters, he would not have come to this dangerous place at all.

At this moment, they could only rely on the special forces soldiers if they wanted to live.

However, when he turned around to look, he realized that the special security officers didn't have any intention of fighting for their lives. Instead, they pulled the other people by their arms and ran toward the exit.

"Run! Don't look back!"

"Run!"

"What are you waiting for? Do you want to die?"

One of the special forces soldiers grabbed Professor Kohler by his arm and ran with him. At the same time, he urged the other soldiers to escort the archaeologists and the production team back to safety.

After all, the special forces soldiers were humans too!

Although they were fully armed, they would not risk their lives when faced with such a terrifying supernatural danger.

Besides, their duty was to ensure the safety of the archaeological team. That was the top priority.

When faced with thousands of fire ladybugs, only a fool would stay and risk his life. The terrain was disadvantageous to them, and their firearms were ineffective against fire ladybugs, so the correct choice was to run for their lives.

Therefore, while the others were still in a daze, Captain Bill pulled Anna and the others up and ran as he gave orders to the other soldiers.

At this moment, everyone suddenly jolted into action.

With the huge army of bugs right in front of them, they wouldn't have another chance if they didn't run now!

The other members of the archaeological team immediately turned around and followed the special forces soldiers. They ran for their lives along the way they came.

Buzz!

Just as they rushed out, even more fire ladybugs had awoken in the ancient tree. The swarm of bugs chased after them.

"Oh my god! How many bugs are there?!"

"This is too scary!"

"Pray that the archaeologists and the production team can leave safely! Amen!"

The high-resolution camera captured the scene perfectly. Countless viewers watched in horror as the army of fire ladybugs chased after the group.

That's right!

The Hydra Tree could speed up the breeding of sacred scarabs and fire ladybugs. After such a long period of breeding, there were already several thousand of them.

Whoosh!

Thousands of fire ladybugs suddenly flew into the air, filling the entire tunnel.

No living creature dared to stand in their way. Any living creature that came into contact with those terrifying blue flames would die.

…

"Da*n, can they survive?!"

"Why is that gravekeeper so brutal? Does he want to kill everyone?!"

"Uh… I don't think there's a problem with the gravekeeper. It's his job to guard the Pyramid of Giza!"

"That's right! It's the archaeologists' fault. They have no right to excavate the Pyramid of Giza!"

"They may really die there! This is too scary!"

The live stream viewers could clearly see that the fire ladybugs were extremely fast and that they were about to catch up to the team.

If that happened, everyone in the archaeological team would die.

"Da*n it! Flamethrowers are useless against those bugs!"

"Quick, think of a way!"

The special forces soldiers were anxious. They knew very well that these fire ladybugs were not afraid of fire.

No one would have thought that there were such creatures in the Great Pyramid of Giza!

Bang!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Seeing that the fire ladybugs were about to catch up to them, some members of the team fired a few shots behind them.

However, the ladybugs were too small, so it was hard for the bullets to hit them. They could only watch as several fire ladybugs landed on John's body.

"Kohler, save me!"

"You promised to share with me half of the burial items. That's why I came with you!"

"You made a promise! You can't leave me behind!"

John endured the pain, and in his despair, he revealed the dirty agreement between him and Kohler.

But in the next second.

Boom!

A huge blue flame erupted from John's body and engulfed him.

"John!"

Professor Kohler couldn't help but shout when he saw his friend John being engulfed by flames.

He wanted to save John, but he couldn't even protect himself against the fire ladybugs.

And by the looks of it, the gravekeeper wouldn't give up until all of them were dead.

However, due to his old age, Kohler couldn't run fast. He ended up trailing at the end of the team.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, a few fire ladybugs landed on his body.

Am I going to die?!

At that instant, those five words came to Kohler's mind.

In the next second, a raging fire engulfed him. Before he could even scream, he was burnt to ashes.

Before he died, there was only one thought left in his mind.

Why did he come to the Pyramid of Giza?

Just to boost his reputation? Or for those burial items?

In the end, he lost his life!

But it was too late for regrets. By the time he finally understood, the flames had reduced him to ashes.

"Professor!"

Seeing this, Anna could not help but stop running and shout.

"Don't stop! Run!"

"The professor is dead! Run!"

At that critical moment, the special forces soldiers quickly stopped her from running back and ordered the rest to continue running forward.

Fortunately, they did not encounter any traps on the way back.

Everyone was racing against time as they rushed out of the pyramid with all their might.

They were reaching the exit.

However, the fire ladybugs behind them were also getting closer.

Just when they were about to engulf another person…

"Bring everyone out immediately!"

"I'll take care of them!"

Captain Bill gritted his teeth and stopped running. As he ordered the rest to hurry out, he took out a grenade and pulled the safety pin.

"Captain!"

One of the soldiers gritted his teeth and shouted. Then, he led everyone out.

As the fire ladybugs drew closer to him, Captain Bill counted in his mind the time remaining till the explosion of the grenade.

Fifteen meters left…

One second left…

"It's time! Now!"

Whoosh!

Captain Bill threw the grenade into the swarm of bugs.

Boom!

All of them heard an explosion, following which the ground started shaking.

The grenade exploded in the middle of the bug swarm, and the impact sent the fire ladybugs at the front flying in all directions.

Captain Bill glanced back out of the corner of his eye. Then, he turned and ran.

Da*n it! What a strange encounter!

He did not know what kind of commotion this gravekeeper incident would cause among his superiors!

…

"Alright. The hateful ones are dead, and the rest are out."

"I think I did a good job."

Vincent looked at the people who escaped from the pyramid and nodded in satisfaction.

It was not that the fire ladybugs had failed to kill everybody on the team.

Vincent had never intended to kill them all.

It was fine as long as those in charge were dead. The rest of them could go out alive and bring back more people, so that Vincent would have more tasks to do.

Ding!

"Congratulations, Host, you have completed the mission. You are rewarded with 20,000 merit points!"
