Using the portkey issued by the Egyptian Ministry of Magic, the group arrived at the city of Peer-Ramses, where the ruins of the sun are located.

It's a lost city of wonders, a dream for archaeologists and adventurers in ancient Egypt.

In the undulating yellow sand, Evan saw the ruins of a huge city appear in front of him.

They were standing on a section of a wall-like building, and several wizards were retching from the discomfort of the portkey trip.

Beneath their feet, countless ruins and ancient ruins stand in the desert.

Magnificent and mysterious huge stone pillars and granite carved statues can be seen everywhere, and the years have left obvious traces on them, as if they are telling the world about the glory of the past in silent language......

"Peer-Ramses!" said Lavier, walking up to Aven, looking at the ruins of the city in front of her, "It means Ramses' palace, it's magnificent, isn't it? This city was the capital of ancient Egypt during the reign of Ramses II, with countless palaces, temples, and treasures left by ancient wizards, but less than a tenth of the area has been discovered, and most of the buildings and treasures are still buried under thick gravel." ”

"Then why not dig them all up?" asked Aven.

He sensed a strange magical reaction here, interfering with the operation of his magic.

This has happened to Evan before, indicating that there is a powerful magic or magic item at work in the area, affecting the mana.

"Because this damned gravel is a curse in itself!" Fairy Pendulum said in a shrill voice at hearing Even's question, "It is said that after the death of Ramses II, the yellow sand covered the city, and it was a magic that the capital that belonged to him would not be seen again until the pharaoh returned from his slumber. Alright, Lavier, hurry up and pack your things, that Saeed guy is complaining again, we still have a long way to go, and Apparition is not a good place to be. ”

Lavier went over to help, and Aven followed the others down the crumbling walls.

As the pendulum says, the grit here is strange, and there is a feeling of being particularly unreal when stepped on.

He hadn't taken a few steps before his body was sinking.

It falls quickly, as if falling into a bottomless swamp or the mouth of a terrible monster.

Evan hurriedly drew his wand, and before he could use his magic, he was pulled out of the sand.

"Be careful, little one!" a burly, dark-skinned wizard shook Aven's body as if Aven had no weight.

His name is Benny, and he's in charge of the logistics of the excavation team, and he's moving supplies down.

This guy is almost as tall as Hagrid, and Evan is sure that he definitely has giant blood.

"Thank you!" Evan gasped, motioning for the other to put himself down, the guy shaking him dizzy.

"It's nothing, people who come here for the first time make this kind of mistake, but you have to be careful not to make a mistake again, every year a lot of people die in the sand. Benny said, pointing to the rocks on the ground, "This isn't the kind of place where you can go wherever you want, only these fortified roads can be walked." ”

The ground was paved with huge rocks that stretched far and wide.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Aven, I forgot to tell you!" noticing below, Lavier sprang down the city walls, now carrying a large backpack, "These gravels are magical, and those who step on them will keep sinking, which is why the excavation work in Peer-Ramses is progressing slowly. On the surface, it's hard to know what's underneath the gravel, it's impossible to pinpoint the exact location of the excavated ruins, and it's hard to get rid of the sand, which will keep popping up. By the way, are you alright?"

"It's okay!" said Aven, who had just been shaken by Benny's dizziness, as he looked at the endless yellow sand, "Well, there's a special magic on these gravels, and the quicksand charm seems to have a similar effect. ”

To be able to cast a quicksand spell on such a large city, and for so long, the power of those ancient warlocks was simply terrifying.

Evan crouched on the ground and lowered his wand to the gravel next to him, casting a spell.

In the blink of an eye, the grit was solidifying rapidly, but soon dissipated and turned back into sand.

"Yes, it would be possible to solidify them into the stones we are standing on, but it won't last long, and it will need to be reinforced on a regular basis, and in order to maintain the entire Sun Ruins and such a path, the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts have hired three hundred wizards to do this. "And reinforcement doesn't help you know what's underneath the sand, and any probing magic won't work, and the only way to know what's down there is to dig a hole to reinforce the gravel, which is often buried deep ......."

Evan nodded, speaking of which, the process of discovering the Sun Ruins was indeed not easy.

In order to find ancient magical treasures, wizards and goblins also paid a great price.

"Let's go!" said Mr. Said, the vice-captain of the excavation team, as he stepped down from the city walls, "we didn't come to this damn place for you foreign wizards to study the sand here. ”

"Ignore him!" Lavier whispered, pulling Evan to his feet.

Along the fortified road, the excavation team began to set off towards the Sun Ruins.

After about twenty minutes of walking, a huge square appeared, the ground all fortified, crowded with other excavation teams waiting to enter the ruins of the sun, adventurers, a few scattered wizards who wanted to make a fortune, and even a number of Muggle archaeologists and excavation teams.

"Hey, those Muggle ......"

"Gringotts needed the help of these Muggles, and they were very good at ancient Egyptian history and the handling of ordinary artifacts. Rest assured, Muggles' memories have been altered and they don't remember anything related to magic. "The Sun Ruins are right down here, so we don't have to wait in line, we can go straight in." As Mr. Pendulum said, let's go to the Temple of the Gods first, which can help you get an overall understanding of the Sun Ruins. ”

"Wait, where are the Sun Ruins?"

Evan looked around, and he saw nothing but the people in the square and above.

In the distance, there is an endless desert, with no buildings, no plants, nothing but sand.

It is not an exaggeration to describe this place in two words: barrenness.

"As I said, the relics of the sun are at our feet!" explained Lavière. It is almost impossible to completely remove these magical gravel, so the wizards used magic to reinforce the upper layer of gravel in the central area of the entire Sun Ruins, which is the place where we are standing now, and then dig down little by little, and focus on breaking through through several paths, one is to lead to the God's Dome, and the other is the area that our excavation team is responsible for, the goblins seem to be still researching new excavation routes, there is no gravel inside the ruins, as long as you can get in, you can start excavating work......"
