Chapter 021: The Pyramid

获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第021章 神殿

When Wang Bo saw this news, he couldn't help but curl his lip. What did your jumping up and down in San Francisco have to do with him? Even if you tore the sky apart, he couldn't be bothered to pay you any mind.

So Wang Bo simply ignored the protests in San Francisco.

Gwen, however, gave Wang Bo a call to remind him.

Wang Bo just smiled faintly and changed the subject, asking how their business was going.

These past few days, Hela had been away, so Wang Bo had to personally monitor the globe. He really didn't have the spare time to focus on Gwen and Kingpin's affairs.

But Wang Bo believed that Gwen wouldn't lose, anyway.

After all, she had been strengthened by him.

And indeed, after Wang Bo asked, Gwen opened up and chatted with him about what she had encountered these past few days.

It was nothing more than fighting Kingpin, resting, fighting, resting again...

Anyway, after several clashes, she hadn't completely defeated Kingpin.

The main reason was that Gwen didn't want to kill. After being strengthened by Wang Bo, Gwen's strength had greatly increased. If she had murderous intent, not to mention one Kingpin, even ten Kingpins would be finished.

But as a superhero, Gwen's greatest desire was to bring criminals to justice and put them in prison, not to take the law into her own hands and kill without mercy.

The former was Spider-Man, the latter was the Punisher.

Because of this mindset, every time Gwen clashed with Kingpin and his crew, she instinctively held back, afraid of accidentally killing someone with a single punch.

Under such frustrating circumstances, Gwen hadn't been able to quickly deal with Kingpin.

But Gwen also said, "I've been getting familiar with my surging power recently. When the time comes, I'll give them a big surprise."

Once Gwen could control her surging power at will, Kingpin would be no threat.

To this, Wang Bo offered his blessing, "Good luck, Gwen."

"I will," Gwen said with a slight smile. "Good luck to you too."

Wang Bo nodded.

After the phone call with Gwen, Wang Bo had completely put Hela's matter out of his mind, no longer thinking about anything related to her.

Instead, he patiently monitored global spatial fluctuations.

Three days later, a new spatial fluctuation appeared, right in New York.

Wang Bo immediately rushed back, only to see New York's landmark, the Empire State Building, vanish in a transformation, replaced by a pyramid.

The pyramid appeared in New York, instantly attracting countless onlookers.

Wang Bo hurriedly rushed up to repair the spatial rift while monitoring the pyramid, finding that the pyramid showed no unusual activity.

The surrounding crowd also kept their distance, with few daring to approach the pyramid, after all, its appearance was too eerie—who knew what kind of creepy things were inside?

Meanwhile, after receiving the news, New York's high command decisively dispatched soldiers to seal off the area.

By the time Wang Bo repaired the spatial rift, a large group of soldiers had already arrived, cordoning off the area with yellow tape and sending several teams to secure the scene, preventing anyone from entering.

Wang Bo was somewhat curious about what was inside the pyramid, so with a flicker of his form, he entered the pyramid.

The soldiers outside couldn't stop Wang Bo at all.

The interior of the pyramid was not as grand as Wang Bo had imagined, nor did it have any supernatural power—it was just an ordinary pyramid... or so Wang Bo initially thought.

But soon, Wang Bo noticed something was off.

It was the height of the pyramid.

After entering the pyramid, Wang Bo found that from top to bottom, it was about three hundred meters. But from the outside, the pyramid didn't even exceed a hundred meters.

The interior space was completely different from the exterior, and this alone was enough to prove that the pyramid was no ordinary structure.

A faint glow appeared in Wang Bo's eyes as he cast a special spell to dispel illusions and reveal the truth.

In an instant, the originally shabby pyramid became magnificent, like an ancient palace.

The entire interior of the pyramid was built with massive stones, winding and twisting like a maze, filled with all kinds of rooms.

Wang Bo stood in a winding corridor, with doors embedded in the walls on both sides.

He stepped forward and casually pushed open a door. Inside was not a narrow room but a vast expanse of icy permafrost. A gust of cold wind blew, and a thin layer of frost formed on Wang Bo's body.

He raised an eyebrow and saw a pack of giant snow wolves charging straight toward him.

Wang Bo's eyes released two dazzling heat rays that pierced the air, melted the snow and ice, and split the running wolves in two.

In an instant, hot blood splattered onto the snow, blooming like brilliant flowers of blood.

It was very real.

Wang Bo couldn't see anything fake about it.

He thought for a moment, closed this door, and opened another.

Inside was no longer a frozen tundra but a beautiful garden in full spring, with the fragrance of flowers filling the air, intoxicating and delightful.

What was even more irresistible was that the garden was filled with beautiful women.

And they were all naked.

The women were chatting and laughing when they suddenly saw someone open the door. They all looked at Wang Bo, letting out pleasant laughter that was soul-stirring, and many of them invited him in.

Wang Bo glanced at them indifferently and closed the door again.

Then, every door he opened revealed a completely different scene.

There were oceans, deserts, grasslands, and lakes...

"So, what exactly is this thing?"

Wang Bo couldn't help but ask his cheat device, as he truly didn't know what this place was.

[It should be the temple of some deity.]

The cheat device gave its answer.

Wang Bo thought it over and accepted this answer, because he realized that the scenes behind each door were real, not mere illusions.

Only a deity could have such power to bring the outside scenery into the pyramid.

So Wang Bo continued forward, through the winding corridors and the grand main road, until he finally reached the highest point of the pyramid—a magnificent hall.

The hall was resplendent, with stone coffins lined up on both sides.

In the center of the hall stood a small platform.

On the platform was a golden throne.

Seated on the throne was a tall man, about three meters in height, with his entire body, including his skin, a pale gold, like a legendary golden being.
