Chapter 184 The Mystery of the Food Pyramid

I stepped into the depths of the food pyramid and began my adventure. I moved slowly along the winding passage, taking every step carefully, for fear of disturbing the beasts that might be hiding in the dark.

I walked along one of the passages and when I reached a corner, I climbed up the wall and carefully observed the various passages around me. The surrounding walls were covered with thick red dust, which covered the original walls, making the entire space look even more ancient and mysterious.

I frowned, and the words of the camel rental shop grandmother echoed in my mind. She said that this food pyramid was built thousands of years ago, and behind it are all kinds of speculations and conjectures about super civilizations and alien creatures, and the truth is always shrouded in fog. This building is almost an unimaginable masterpiece for humans at that time, full of exploration and imagination of the unknown world.

According to legend, the kings of ancient countries sleep in this pyramid, and their treasures and secrets are hidden in the deepest part of the food pyramid. I was looking for the legendary ingredient - mellow cola.

Just as I was immersed in my thoughts, a low roar suddenly came from the passage ahead. I quickly found a secluded corner to hide, pressed tightly against the wall, held my breath, and dared not make the slightest movement.

After the frog beast lingered nearby for a while, it slowly turned around and walked in another direction. I listened to its footsteps getting farther and farther away until it completely disappeared into the darkness. Only then did I dare to slowly stick my head out and carefully observe the surrounding situation.

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, I breathed a sigh of relief, and the fear and tension in my heart dissipated. I adjusted my breathing again and prepared to move forward.

As I gradually went deeper into the food pyramid, I found the surrounding environment more and more strange. All around were walls and stone pillars covered with red sand, which seemed to have been eroded by time, leaving mottled traces.

I looked down and found a clear bird-shaped paw print in the red sand on the ground. The paw print was deeply imprinted in the sand, as if it had been stepped on by some creature. My heart tightened. Could there really be some unknown creature hidden here?

At the top of the food pyramid, Zebula and Alu walked through a winding passage. The walls on both sides of the passage were inlaid with ancient stones, which looked mottled and mysterious under the weak light.

A Lu suddenly stopped and fixed his eyes on the stone on the wall. He gently stretched out his hand and slid his fingertips across the surface of the stone, feeling the uneven texture: "If you look closely... this is really a rare stone!"

A Lu gently put the hand that had just touched the stone close to his nose and sniffed the smell carefully. His expression gradually became solemn: "There is a faint smell of phosphoric acid, and a smell that I smell for the first time. The material of this stone may not be something from the human world!"

A Lu frowned, as if trying to think about what secrets were hidden behind this mysterious stone. His heart was filled with doubts and curiosity about the unknown.

However, A Lu knew that now was not the time to delve into these matters. He quickly adjusted his mood and temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart. He took firm steps again and caught up with the figure of Zebra in front of him.

When Zebula and Alu passed the end of the passage, they were shocked by the sight before them. There were countless square stone platforms all around, which were staggered in height and formed a huge circular structure.

The stone platforms are connected by various exquisite connecting platforms, forming an intricate network. These platforms seem to be chaotic, but in fact they are full of mysteries. They are intertwined together, like forming a huge four-dimensional space.

A Lu stood in the center of this huge circular structure and looked around, his eyes flashing with curiosity: "Where is this place? There is a strange place, what is going on in this room?"

A Lu looked around the strange space, and a strange curiosity surged in his heart. He knew that if it weren't for Zebra's unique echo location ability, they would have been lost in this maze-like structure.

Zebra seemed unusually silent at this moment. He was panting slightly, obviously having consumed a lot of energy. He walked down the stairs silently and came to a triangular stone platform. The platform seemed to be driven by some mysterious force and began to move slowly upwards.

The triangular platform began to rise slowly and steadily, and finally rested firmly on the connection of the staircase. Zebra stepped onto the platform without hesitation. Alu followed closely behind, his eyes full of worry for Zebra.

A Lu carefully observed Zebra's exhausted state. He was slightly stunned, and a complex emotion surged in his heart: Ever since Xiaosong was taken away by the quicksand, Zebra has been using the echo map to find his trace. During this time, Zebra has been continuously emitting ultrasonic waves, consuming huge amounts of energy without stopping.

Usually, when people sing karaoke, they consume about 5 calories if they continue to make sounds from their abdomen for about 10 minutes per song.

The amount of calories consumed by Zebra's Echo Map, assuming that he expanded it to the maximum range of 70 kilometers, would consume 200 calories per second. If the above situation continued for 5 minutes, it would actually require 6 calories of energy, and it would have been more than 5 hours since he activated the map.

泽布拉现阶段消耗的能量早已达到了360万大卡，那是相当于中途不间断循环进行240次铁人三项；长距离游泳3.9㎞；自行车180㎞；马拉松42·195㎞，总消耗卡路里约1万5000大卡的消耗。

Even though Zebra had great physical strength and a strong throat to boast about, he was probably overusing his voice to the point where it was difficult for him to maintain the map.

Zebula and Alu stepped onto the triangular stone platform, and walked steadily towards the other end of the stone platform. When they gradually approached the end of the stone platform, the stone door that had been standing still suddenly made a slight mechanical sound, and the stone door slowly slid open to both sides, revealing a deep passage.

Alu and Zebula were both alert, ready to deal with possible dangers. Suddenly, a huge beast ran out. It had three wolf faces on its body, each with a pair of sharp fangs, and looked very ferocious. It was huge, several times larger than ordinary beasts. It also had three horns on its head, which flashed with cold light, making people shudder.
