The previously sealed ergency exit opened on the pyramid's end for the first ti in ages and the shabby figure of an injured man arose from a platform no one even knew existed.
The gentle breeze that ran on top of Kukulkan's pyramid did nothing to ease Uriel's pain, nor did the last beams of sunlight in the horizon provide any warmth to his body. He was broken, ssed up beyond hope, but his will remained the sa.
Instead of spending what he knew would be his last monts struggling futilely Uriel was decided to make the most out of his remaining ti. Even though it may have looked like it, he wasn't actually escaping from the creatures but moving towards a well planned objective: to fulfill his duty as an archaeologist.
Even if the system branded him as a criminal, even if he had committed the most shaful sin on his field by breaking the jeweled bracelet, he still needed to leave a record of his adventure. His own demise didn't matter to him, so long as soone took over his place and, maybe soday, what he learned today could help solve all the mysteries behind the treacherous ruins of Chichén Itzá.
Uriel spent batteries one after the other in hopes of activating the pyramid. At first it seed pointless as the convoluted arcs of electricity seed to spread widely all over the chamber, but after a few seconds it was sucked up into the structure. The backpack filled with tier 3 batteries Uriel had been carried for what seed an eternity finally fulfilled its purpose.
The activation of the pyramid took effect almost imdiately and the protective barrier was up once again. Even though it was invisible, sohow Uriel was able to feel it, and that wasn't everything.
Now that the protective barrier was on, the supernatural interference caused by cryptids Field of disruption ceased and the phone service ca back online. Uriel's phone wasn't affected by it from the start, but that wasn't true for the repeater antenna responsible for carrying the phone's signal.
Several notifications started ringing on his head on a chanical voice, most of those were missed calls and ssages from his friends and also from Mister Scofield, but there were too many to count and he was quickly overwheld by the sudden intake of information.
For a glimpse of a second he thought of calling soone, maybe dusa, maybe Mister Scofield, but in the end he decided against it. Saying his goodbyes to people he t for such a short period didn't feel right. Besides, he was bleeding out and ti wasn't on his side, with that in mind he started recording a video.
"I was contacted by the Mapple corporation to lead a group into several points of interest in Chichén Itzá. The objective of this expedition wasn't clear to , all they said was sothing about an underground structure beneath the ruins, but after setting foot in here it beca obvious they were either hiding sothing or they directly lied.
Apparently, they were interested in acquiring the fountain of youth, even though it is a myth.
After exploring the ruins I found a way to activate the ancient structures and found a burial site filled with treasures, particularly a sacrificial dagger and a jeweled bracelet. Both of this artifacts seem to possess so kind of mystical power, but I digress. There's evidence of an ancient civilization that preceded the Mayans and that they were responsible for building this ancestral structures.
They look like they're made of regular stone but that's not the case, it's a different material capable of self repairing, channeling flux energy and moving provided they have enough energy to do so. This supports the theory of this ancestral civilization's possessing advanced technology that far surpasses our own.
I believe the clue to unraveling the mystery of 'the arrival' and hopefully how to defeat them isn't in any technology we could ever develop but in our past history. This isn't the first ti humanity encountered cryptids, I repeat, cryptids had already existed before the arrival.
The different languages, monunts, the pyramids, even so statues all of them could hold the key that might save us. It cos in the form of a strange tal with incredible capabilities called orichalcum, not only is it capable of channeling flux energy, artifacts made out of that tal possess incredible abilities similar to traits. Big corporations such as the Mapple corp.
already know about it, and it seems they're willing to go through great lengths to hide it.
The biggest, most important, coverup in the history of mankind didn't need any actual covering. All it took was to keep everything in plain sight, while providing a low budget for public archaeological research while investing heavily on private endeavors.
Our expedition was fruitful, but now I find myself wounded on top of Kukulkan's pyramid and I don't have much ti. I don't even have a light source and my only an of defending myself is a asly rifle. That and the old ceremonial dagger we found earlier in the Cenote.
This is head archaeologist Uriel Sage and this is probably my last video entry. I don't know if I'll be able to upload this but If you're watching this video, don't co anywhere near this place, call the authorities and share this video with everyone.
The truth must co out.
There's sothing after , sothing ancient that doesn't have a na. This is as much my legacy as it is a warning for whoever cos after , whatever you do, do not activate the platform of the descending god."
Relief couldn't begin to describe what Uriel felt after recording and he let out a long sigh.
His first mission as an archaeologist had co to an end.
He visited exotic places, t new people, explored incredible cultural remains but more importantly, he managed to leave sothing behind. The need to leave sothing for future generations inherent to humans gave Uriel so sort of peace, even if he dropped dead right then and there it wouldn't be for naught.
In the end, though, he still imagined what would happen if he sohow managed to go back alive. People would admire him for his many feats, he would receive an incredible amount of money as paynt from the Mapple corporation and even his college would have no choice but to acknowledge his many successes. Heck, they might even acknowledge him as a full fledged archaeologist.
"If only..." Uriel muttered.
