Chapter 599

As a triangular Peninsula connecting Africa and Asia, the Sinai Peninsula is not large, with an area of only 61000 square kilometers. The climate here is hot and dry, and vegetation is scarce. Nearly two thirds of the land is desert.

Unlike the earth of the previous life, the Sinai Peninsula in this world does not belong to Egypt or Israel. It is a chaotic area full of gray trade.

As long as you have money, you can buy anything here, arms, drugs, smuggled goods, even women, children, slaves.

The indigenous people of Sinai Peninsula are Kandak people. It is said that they have a history of more than 5000 years. In ancient Egypt, they once created a legendary and great country. Later, for some unknown reason, the king disappeared and Kandak no longer exists, leaving only the struggling Kandak people.

There are only two cities on the island, one is Arish in the north, near the Mediterranean Sea, and the other is Sharm el Sheikh in the south, near the Red Sea.

The first stop of the trip was Arish.

Compared with the city, it is more like the transit station piled up in the market, dirty, chaotic, dilapidated, with potholes on the road, garbage everywhere, and "security personnel" with AK rifles can be seen every corner.

Security, in fact, is the thugs who serve the local warlords. They don't care about petty thieves. Therefore, this place has become a gathering place for thieves.

The arrival of the crowd attracted a lot of attention. When Diana noticed something, she turned to look at Luke, who said nothing. She went to the security personnel, took out a card and threw it.

"Tell caim that his guest is coming."

Kaim is the owner of the wrong city, holding more than 1500 armed forces. The security personnel hesitated. Seeing that Luke and others were dressed differently, they thought about it and still called the city government.

After a while, three jeeps came and stopped in front of the crowd. A strong, bald sergeant with a scar on his left face came up to Luke and said with a little respect,

"Mr. darn Lucio?"

Luke took out the seal and threw it. The latter glanced at it and saluted immediately,

"Hello, Mr Lucio. Welcome to Arish. The general has been waiting for you for a long time."

Then open the door and ask him to sit in the co pilot's seat.

The bareheaded sergeant, named jolia, was the number one executioner of caim. Seeing him, the mice hiding in the dark turned pale and ran out without looking back.

Luke and jolia took the jeep in front, the others took the jeep in the back, and they drove to the city government.

The security situation in Arish is very bad. Even on the main road, there are bloody conflicts. As for the unemployed and drug addicts, there are more. Barbara can't help muttering,

"It's a strange city."

Derek, a nearby Museum employee, returned in French,

"Fifty years ago, Arish belonged to Egypt, was later occupied by Israel, and is now a land of no owners."

"You mean..."

Derek glanced around and said two words, "warlord! Terrorists

Barbara's mouth is O-shaped,

"How did Mr. Lucio know these people?"

"Who knows? He says he's British, and nine times out of ten he's fake. " At this point, Derek also became uneasy. "What I'm most worried about now is his identity, probably a cultural relics smuggler."

Barbara stopped talking, looked down, and her eyes were full of worry, Diana comforted,

"Don't worry, it's OK."

"No matter who he is, it has nothing to do with us. Our goal is to find underground relics. As long as we find a place, the task will be completed."

When they arrived at the municipal government, they were well received. Mayor kaim attended in person. He was respectful and humble. If they had not known his identity in advance, they would never have thought that such a fat man would be a notorious Karish devil.

After lunch, kaim began to collect information about the underground sites, and the rest were accompanied by "security personnel" to the backyard.

Diana slipped into Luke's room,

"How did you get to know caim, you..."

Luke shakes his head and laughs, "don't think too much. I have a friend who works as a warlord in Palestine next door. He can't get up to me and can only do things according to my requirements."

"Reliable?"

"Not so much a friend as a subordinate."

Diana: --

"Well, don't think about it."

Luke changed his clothes. "Go shopping. Maybe you can find some clues."

Diana, however, had to dress up and leave the city government with Luke. They walked in the market hand in hand like lovers without security personnel.

Although he is poor, he has plenty of goods, whether high-end electronic products, general clothes, perfume or jewelry, or antiques, calligraphy and paintings, ivory and so on. Of course, the source of supply is hard to say.

They strolled around and stopped in front of an antique shop.

Luke picked up a sculpture with ancient Egyptian characters,

"How do you sell this?"

"A hundred thousand."

"Dollars?"

"Yes, dollar!"

Luke smiles and shakes his head. He puts down the sculpture and looks at other things in the shop. When he sees the spear hanging on the wall, his eyes brighten,

"The Kandak spear? Where did you get it from? "

The bearded boss said impatiently, "do you want to buy it?"

Luke picked up the spear and looked at it carefully. "I'm very interested in the history of the kandaks. If you can take me to the Kandak tribe, I'll buy the spear." After a pause, he added, "at twice the price."

The boss looked happy, a little moved and a little suspicious.

Luke opened his backpack and showed the money inside. Seeing this, the boss said directly without hesitation,

"Deposit first."

"How much?"

"A hundred thousand."

Luke took out a bunch of bills and threw them on the table. "It's ten thousand. There's ten thousand when it's done."

"Too little, not enough."

Luke picked up the money. "Forget it. I'll go to another guide."

"Wait!"

The boss came up and grabbed the money from Luke,

"It's agreed that 20000 dollars can't be reduced."

"This is your territory. I don't dare to default."

The boss gave a cold hum, closed the shop, went to the next car shop and asked for three camels. They rode on the camels, left the town and headed south.

The geographical environment of Sinai Peninsula is really bad. Not long after leaving the city, the grassland becomes desert. Looking around, it is surrounded by steep rocks and dry yellow sand.

After more than ten kilometers, the three arrived at a cave. The boss told them to wait and ride their camels into the cave.

"There's something wrong," Diana said in a low voice

Lukhan said in a voice, "I'm looking for them."
