Warm-Up
In the depth of the Amazon Jungle, three tomb raiders from U.K. were keen to find the Holy Grail. They had done researches before and had concluded that the priceless treasure was transported to Brazil as a worship material for an isolated tribal cult.
Finding the location was very difficult, but they came really well prepared. They had to use various technologies to locate a cave. They used an artifact-locator and surveyed thousands of hectares of land by using a helicopter. It took them weeks to determine the absolute location of the cave. After determining it, they came back to their camp and planned their entrance and the tools for the discovery.
The group entered and explored the cave. Inside, they found numerous traps. Using all the tools, they avoided them with ease. Eventually, they managed to reach a pagoda temple, where they believe the Holy Grail was in.
All of a sudden, the cave started to collapse. With great effort and luck, they were all able to enter the temple. Inside the temple, they found out that they were in a vast maze. After walking around for hours, they managed to find the center of the maze. They had found the Holy Grail.
Surprisingly, they found an exit. They ended up being at the other side of cave, getting out from harm’s way.
They couldn’t believe what they have experienced. These brave British archaeologists came back to London and put the Holy Grail to the National Museum of United Kingdom.
