Chapter 1040

Sphinx, the divine beast and murderer in Egyptian legend. It is said that it guards a huge treasure. Countless adventurers who want to find the treasure must answer its questions. If they answer correctly, it lets them pass; if they answer incorrectly, they will be eaten or pushed off a cliff.

Its most classic question is: what walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening.

Lin Ye looks at the Sphinx in front of him, wanting to see what kind of question this guy will ask, so he says:

"Alright, come on, let me see what kind of question you can ask."

"Please listen to the question!"

"Speak."

"My father is white, but I am black.

I am a bird without wings, but I can fly straight to the sky.

When I am born, everyone who touches me sheds tears,

Because once I am born, I will slowly dissipate in the air. What is this!"

"Smoke."

Sphinx...

Damn, you answered so fast; can't you consider it for a little bit?

"That was just a test; it was too simple. Next, I'm going to get serious!"

"You're cheating!" The junior immediately wants to rush up unconvinced, but is stopped directly by Lin Ye.

"It's okay, Mash, let it ask."

"Good! Confident enough! Please listen to the question!

You look at me, I look at you,

You use eyes to see, but I have no eyes.

You can speak, I can also speak,

You have a voice, but I have no voice; I only have lips that open and close. What is this!"

"A mirror!"

Sphinx...

What is going on! Why did this guy guess it again? Are my questions very simple? That can't be; Nitocris said they were very difficult!

"Again!"

"Again? You wish! It's best two out of three, move aside quickly."

"No! I want an explanation for my IQ!" The Sphinx shouts stubbornly. And Lin Ye doesn't want to play with it anymore, because there is no need.

Lin Ye has Clairvoyance, so he knew the answer as soon as he saw the Sphinx's question. You can't say Lin Ye is cheating; he just wanted to see if Clairvoyance was easy to use.

"No, you can't pass~!" The Sphinx also shouts! Sphinxes also have levels. Weak ones are like the mass-produced magical beasts in Ozymandias's pyramid that only roar, while the strongest are Star Sphinxes comparable to top-tier Servants!

And it is the King of Sphinxes, second only to the Star Sphinx!

It shouts! It roars! And then!

It is directly knocked to the ground by Lin Ye with one punch.

Lin Ye pats the sand off his hands and looks at it with disdain:

"You play dirty even after guessing correctly; you really lost face for your boss."

The Sphinx buried in the dirt cannot help but cover its face and cry. My Pharaoh told me to watch this place; how can I refuse!

And at this moment, perhaps feeling that the Sphinx has been defeated, a huge phantom appears out of thin air in the sky! Under the wind and sand filling the sky, this phantom is so majestic and sacred!

"My name! Nitocris! I am the Pharaoh ordered by the great Sun King Ozymandias to guard this place! You who trespass, fear me, bow to me! In that case, I might be able to spare your lives!"

However, looking at the phantom in the sky, Lin Ye cannot help but laugh.

"It's just a magical phantom. If you want to come, then really come; who can you scare with these things."

If he remembers correctly, this is a scene of Nitocris projected from afar, specifically used to scare people. How could he be scared?

However, the moment Lin Ye's voice falls, a petite figure actually appears in front of Lin Ye!

Wheat-colored skin, exotic decorations, especially the Horus ear headpiece, which explains her identity!

Pharaoh of the Sixth Dynasty of Egypt! Nitocris!

And at this moment, around Nitocris, one Sphinx after another is also looking at Lin Ye in front of them with fierce eyes!

"Really? She came out???"

Lin Ye also didn't expect that Nitocris would actually be here; this is different from the situation in his memory!

And at this moment, Nitocris also waves the staff in her hand angrily and gives an order directly:

"Sphinxes! Attack!"

Roar! Roar!!

One surging Sphinx after another rushes toward Lin Ye; the momentum of the charge is as if they want to trample Lin Ye into a meat patty!

Watching the surging group of Sphinxes in front of him, Lin Ye also says silently:
