So they mutated or something? Howard's answer filled in some gaps but not quite, like, "So what happened to the adults?"
Getting the door between him and body seemed to have done Howard some good, because he got enough second wind back to get sarcastic about the body. Daniel frowned at him, disapproval written all over his face at how Howard was describing treating the mummy. It wasn't a bag of groceries you dumped into your car. It used to be a living person.
The archaeologist waited Howard out as he inspected the false wall. The stone wall wasn't that much different from the others, in that the stone blocks were just as solid as the other. It wasn't like a false plaster wall. Daniel's eyes roamed. He didn't see any hints of anything to open it, no writing, no triggers or switches. Nothing. It made sense. Someone had gone to great lengths to hide this. It wasn't meant to be opened. Daniel got the feeling this was going to require some good, old fashioned carefully applied brute force. The kind that required some delicacy and supervision, not the "slap-C4, depress-trigger" brute force Jack liked.
"It's probably a sealed off chamber. They usually are," Daniel switched on one of the comm channels. A few of Eneesh's crew could get this open, easily. He'd have to supervise, but he was confident that with instruction, they could open it without damaging too much. "I'd say it dates around the battle site." Daniel ducked his head towards his wrist and the speaker. "Captain Eneesh? Do you have any spare crew or equipment to remove sections of a wall? No explosives."
