The archaeologists crouched down and said, "There's no other way. This area is probably the most promising one around us."

"Lyon was called Lugdunum in ancient times, after Lug, the sun god in Celtic mythology. The Gauls worshipped and venerated this god here."

He looked up at the surrounding stone walls, sighed, and said, "This is why the higher-ups sent us here."

However, when he looked up, he seemed to notice something and froze on the spot.

The team leader next to him was about to approach when he noticed that something was wrong with him.

"What's wrong with you? What?!"

He looked up following the archaeologists' gaze and saw a stone snake statue coiled on the top of the stone chamber.

It coiled up in a circle, its mouth slightly open, holding a gemstone in the middle.

"Do you want to take it?"

To be honest, they had a bad feeling, a similar situation to what happened in the Sardinia incident, which awakened the stone snake.

"What if?"

The group exchanged glances.

After a moment of silence, the person in charge of the team made a decision: "Come over and lend a hand!"

Two people were seen supporting him from below, lifting him up.

The trembling hand touched the gemstone directly.

buzz

A light flashed.

"Wait, this feeling?"

The person in charge stiffened slightly, but did not respond to the concerned voices of the crowd below.

He slowly stretched out his arm and looked at the spot where the bandage had been wrapped.

rustling.

After the bandage fell off.

His arm was completely healed, and his pupils contracted.

The people below clearly saw this scene as well, since they were the ones who bandaged the other person when they were injured earlier.

You look at me, I look at you.

The person in charge couldn't help but smile, looking at the gem above and speaking up.

"Now that the test has been successful, we don't need to worry about it anymore. Let those guys from the Department of Defense come and get it."

"Brothers, we might make a fortune this time!"

"Don't you think they'll release some kind of monster?"

"Even so, what does it have to do with us? It's not like we asked the Ministry of Defense to take the gems away."

"Relax, buddy, we're just doing reconnaissance."

卢浮宫

The museum had just opened, and tourists were already lining up in the square, with crowds thronging in front of the security checkpoint.

The security personnel, watching the live feed from hundreds of angles in the monitoring room and seeing everything was normal, couldn't help but remark, "There are quite a few people here today."

"It's the weekend, that's normal."

"So, team leader, is this how we'll end it..."

The security team leader looked at his new colleagues and couldn't help but smile.

"Don't worry. You know, our Louvre is recognized as the world's top four museums!"

"With our cameras and security team, it's practically airtight!"

"Even the world's top theft gangs never return!"

"Not to mention, it's broad daylight now!"

------

The Seine River side of the Louvre.

"Boss, is it really going to work if we do it this way?"

Two somewhat disheveled men, dressed in overalls, parked a hydraulic lifting basket at the foot of the Louvre's wall.

One of the thieves looked around nervously, feeling guilty as he sensed that passersby were subtly glancing at him.

I hope I haven't been exposed.

Although his older brother told him that this place was easy to rob, he was still a little worried.

This is the Louvre, after all!

"Don't panic, just walk in confidently. The more nervous you are, the more likely something bad will happen!"

"A big boss has offered a huge sum of money for this project. Once we finish this, we can retire."

The eldest brother walked unhurriedly to the lifting basket, stood on it, and the basket slowly rose.

Two security guards were on temporary patrol here, and the older brother greeted them without any panic.

"Hey bro, wanna grab a couple of cigarettes?"

Upon hearing this, the two security guards looked up at the two people on the lifting platform, a kind smile on their faces, and then waved their hands.

"See!"

Watching the security personnel leave, the older brother quickly pulled an angle grinder from the basket.

"A swift and decisive victory!"

French Ministry of the Interior.

The Minister of the Interior was drinking coffee when his secretary suddenly rushed in, looking extremely flustered.

"Don't panic, what's the rush?"

"Boss, the Louvre has been robbed!"

The Minister of the Interior could hardly believe what he was hearing.

"How long has it been? Has the Louvre taken any emergency measures?"

Upon hearing this, the secretary became somewhat flustered.

"Uh, actually it was a stranger who called us."

"what?"

--------

The Louvre security team looked at the surveillance cameras in front of them.

The video shows two masked men brazenly cutting glass in front of a display case, completely disregarding the security team.

Not far away, several security personnel cautiously protected many tourists behind them.

Many tourists were excitedly taking photos with their phones at the scene.

A vibrant scene of life and everything flourishing.

Everyone has things to do.

The security captain looked at his colleague with disbelief: "How did they get in?"

"They must be space-type superhumans!"

"Don't do that."

"Um, it seems like they just cut through the window to get in."

Where are the security cameras?

"It's broken and hasn't been fixed."

crunch.

With the last layer of glass removed, the artifacts were now within arm's reach of the thieves.

It was the golden sword, Juvalius.

Legend has it that this was the sword once owned by Charlemagne, and the museum had indeed considered removing this artifact.

However, when they discovered that Giovanni had found Durandal, they lost hope for the Louvre's piece.

After testing, this weapon turned out to be just a very ordinary work of art.

They suspected that the genuine item might have already disappeared, so they stopped paying attention to it.

Meanwhile, the security guards at the Apollo exhibition hall made no attempt to stop them.

After all, how much do they earn?

This salary is only enough for them to maintain order in normal times; it's not worth risking their lives to fight the thieves in front of them.

For a variety of reasons, they watched as the two thieves reached for the golden sword.

"Looks like we can start thinking about finding our next job."

Hey.

Just then, they saw the golden sword light up in the scene.

Mist rose from the exhibition hall floor.

"What! Could it be that..."

Everyone stood up abruptly, in disbelief.

Click click click.

Meanwhile, inside the exhibition hall, the sound of camera shutters clicking incessantly rang out. Visitors reacted differently to the security guards, who were sweating profusely.

He appeared incredibly excited.

"It's actually true!"

"It wasn't a wasted trip! It wasn't a wasted trip at all!"

"To see this scene, the ticket is totally worth it!"

hiss.

The snake flicks its tongue.

Snakes raised their heads from the mist, seemingly eager to prey on the thieves.

Click.

The sudden change startled the thief, who stood frozen in place, dropping his weapon to the ground.

Then they turned around and ran away.

"superior!!"

The security personnel exchanged a glance before mustering the courage to step forward and pin the two thieves to the ground.

----------

The people in the security room looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Was that sword just now...?"

"F***, it's actually the real thing!"

Hearing the surrounding chatter, the new security guard asked in a low voice.

"Um, do we still have our jobs?"

"Don't worry, we've indirectly activated a super weapon this time, and we might even get promoted later!"
