The Sorcerer was regarded as the most devout servant of the Sun God, endowed with mysterious powers granted by the divine.
At the same time, the Sorcerer was a trusted minister of successive Pharaohs, holding immense power and wealth, capable of commanding an entire nation with a mere gesture.
However, the Pharaohs were not intimidated by the Sorcerer's power, for the mysterious Paradise held a far stronger allure for them than royal authority. The incantations inscribed on the tomb's entrance by the Sorcerer could protect the tomb from external disturbances. It was said that these spells, weathered by millennia, still possessed miraculous efficacy.
"Jacques..." Chang Annchun softly repeated the name, feeling as if the blood in his veins had suddenly frozen, a chill rising from his very core.
In the long and heavy historical river of ancient Egypt, the name "Jacques" was synonymous with death, striking fear into all who heard it.
In 2181 BC, the Eighth Dynasty emerged.
Nasovich ascended to the supreme throne of Pharaoh.
At the same time, he was accompanied by the most notorious and terrifying Sorcerer in Egyptian history, Jacques.
With Jacques' formidable support, Nasovich claimed his throne; however, his reign would forever be linked to tyranny and cruelty.
Nasovich executed those who opposed him through various brutal means—men were mercilessly fed to lions and tigers, while women suffered unspeakable atrocities at the hands of soldiers, their fates horrifyingly cruel.
Drawing from years of archaeological experience and profound historical knowledge, Chang Annchun vaguely deduced the identity of Black Head's master.
She was a breathtakingly beautiful queen, also the first royal member in Egyptian history to be cursed; her name was Suri.
Under Nasovich's favor, Jacques not only acted with impunity but also began to covet Nasovich's throne and his stunningly beautiful Queen Suri.
Jacques began to resort to all sorts of methods to entice Queen Suri, but each time he was cleverly evaded by her.
In his desperation to win Suri over, Jacques became increasingly deranged, and finally hatched a sinister and malicious plan.
One day, Jacques solemnly told Nasovich that Queen Suri was possessed by an evil spirit and needed to be exorcised immediately; otherwise, the spirit would threaten Nasovich's reign.
Nasovich believed Jacques wholeheartedly and immediately issued an order for him to perform the exorcism on the queen.
With ulterior motives, Jacques ordered his guards to bind the queen in a dark room, where he ruthlessly tormented her in a cruel manner, hoping to force her into submission. However, Suri remained steadfast and vowed to report his vile actions to Nasovich.
Enraged and humiliated, Jacques's malice grew bolder, and he brutally severed Suri's head. After burning it in a fierce fire, he inscribed a wicked curse on the top of her skull and coated it with a liquid representing sin. Suri's body was mercilessly incinerated, cursed to never reach Paradise.
The next day, in a fit of madness, Jacques poisoned Nasovich and ascended to the Pharaoh's throne, beginning his even more brutal reign.
However, as fate would have it, justice is always served. Jacques's excessive cruelty led him to an untimely death just twenty-three days after taking the throne.
Knowing that his subjects despised him deeply, Jacques feared that if anyone disturbed his tomb or moved his body, he would never be able to reach Paradise.
Thus, before he died, Jacques carved the most malevolent curse on the tomb door: "By the will of the Sun God, whoever enters this door shall die. Sorcerer — Jacques!"
The tombs of Egyptian Pharaohs were often filled with rich treasures as burial goods. Many disregarded the threat of curses and risked their lives to break open tombs and steal valuables. However, Jacques's Tomb remained safe and sound due to its hidden location and the mysterious power of the curse.
Chang Annchun stared intently at the inscription and instinctively recited an ancient Egyptian nursery rhyme: "Legends may not be mere fabrications; curses from a thousand years ago still exist..."
After enduring the test of time for a millennium, is Jacques' Curse still effective? This seems to be a riddle that transcends time and space, waiting for people to seek the answer.
Experts from various countries have launched extensive research efforts based on the inscriptions on the top of the skull and the clues provided by Chang Annchun.
Meanwhile, an American Expedition Team has successfully traced the footsteps of Ak Mosso, finding the cave where the skull was originally discovered, and they have begun more in-depth and meticulous excavation work without delay.
The inscriptions on the Black Head resemble a heavy bomb, shaking the entire world with their implications.
It is not merely a string of malicious curses; it feels more like a key that unlocks the mysterious door of a lost dynasty, hiding endless secrets and clues.
In order to obtain more accurate and detailed information, experts from various countries are attempting to use advanced technology to reconstruct the appearance of the skull's owner.
However, a major challenge they face is the need to remove the strange black gelatinous substance that covers the skull.
What is perplexing is that this black gelatinous substance appears to be parasitic, like some unknown mysterious organism clinging to the skull. No matter what methods or techniques the experts employ, they cannot successfully remove it.
After chemical experts extracted and analyzed this substance, they were astonished to discover that it is composed of numerous previously unknown elements. It does not belong to any category of elements recognized on Earth.
This astonishing discovery has led people to speculate wildly: could it be that ancient Egypt's brilliant civilization truly originated with assistance from extraterrestrials?
This hypothesis has instantly stirred up a storm in both academic circles and society at large.
