Ancient Curse Sinks into the Sand

Lin Wei woke up from the ground, surrounded by only darkness, bones, and slowly approaching footsteps. She thought she had entered an abandoned tomb by mistake. Until she used modern chemistry knowledge to reveal the true identity of the "mummy" - there was a living person under the shroud. Outside, Egypt was in the throes of World War II. The locals spoke Arabic, the British troops spoke English, and the monuments were inscribed with dead script. The only person she can communicate with is a mixed-race surveying and mapping apprentice who was abandoned by both groups. Science dismantles all supernatural phenomena, and logic crushes all superstitions. No system, no cheats, no real ghosts. Only time-travelers + mixed-race surveyors can survive and defeat the situation in the desert in 1942.
