Didnt i promise you that id leave kulu as soon as i found all the green metal . You kill tarzan, and ill leave kulu. What is it . Its the end of the line. There are a warning. If we go any further, well be attacked. Its as simple as that. But weve got papers h he that give us full permission. Unfortunately, dr. Singleton, those warriors there cant read.

Come back here, tarzan, im not quite finished with you. The helicopter leaving there, pilot told me he has orders not to return here until tatakombi radios him at the capital. If this radio goes out, youre stuck here without any communication to the outside world, arent you . Im quite sure that colonel tatakakbi knows whats necessary for our safety. Besides, he says that the savages wont dare attack us once were inside a sacred place. Hold still. Down with infection. Ah, cleaning up my handiwork, huh . Still no hard feelings . No, nono of course not. Someday, i will make it upu. Someday, i will invite you back to my country to hunt gazelles from my private limousine. Oh, yes, im sure tarzan would love that.

Do you know that he has. He has read every single paper my father has ever written . Years. He writes the most inspiring letters. Hmm, sounds ambitious. And whats wrong with that . Hes a dedicated, civilized man. He even fought his own government to get permission for us to come here. Yes, although i understand they dont always trust his ideas. Oh, its because he gets things done, thats why. Because e has vision and because he understands how important my fathers discoveries in kulu will be to this whole country. Oh, colonel tatakombi is the man who cares about all of mankind. Do you have any idea what that means, tarzan . Yes, but i suppose im just concerned about why he wants to get rid of me. Oh, the most ridiculous. Now, there you go, gentle man. Just dont go swinging through too many trees for a while. All you have to do is relax a little bit. Like you . Look at you, the bod.

Hes been with meefor the p. My boys have been working pretty hard around here. Your approval. Thank you, mr. Miller. Well, im just very glad that you got here safe and sound to see it. Come on, ill show you around. Mr. Miller, i will do the showing around here. What is baskar . Baskar. A native word, why . Thats what the warrior said, baskar, right before he died. Hmm. R beautiful city. I thought i told you to stay put. Im sorry. Where were you . I dont know, all over the place. Mr. Mi t i better stay with him, or the dead people might get me. And look, look what he gave me. A silver dollar. I was afraid when i got to kulu. He said to wear it around my neck. It will keep the d dd spirits away from me. You arent mad, are you, tarzan . No, no. Because i brought you a present, too. I i und it under some rocks. Its just like that big stone mamawe saw, remember . Its gold, jai. Solid gold. Rererkable. Wh workmanship. But of a later period than these designs on the pyramids there. Thats gold, dr. Singleton, and if theres gold here and possibly precious stoneses then perhaps. Oh, most stone age men only used such things for an occasional ornament, you knkn. You mean like the incas in peru . Oh, no. Im quite certain theres no such h easure as that in kulu. Anyway, if there were, it would h he been looted through the centuries. To make men greedy, sir. Yes. Yes. Ill speak to this man, miller, and see what hes found. Why . Perhaps our friend colonel tatakombi is also interested in treasure. Matto. Matto this is your last chance, buddy. I got a lot of work to do tonight and i dont want to be bothered. Tarzans following me, this is your last chance. If they find baskar, they wont leave, and your tribe will be driven from the valley by the spirits, and you would no longer be a chief and i wont get the green metal. They must not find baskar. Baskar. Well, go on, there. Can you move . Here, lets try it. You still want to kill me . All right. Go ahead. Does not matter. We are all dead. All who break the taboo, to kulu, are dead. This is the traitors burial cave, and we will join them. Well, thats possible, but not until weve tried. Anyway, youre not gonna die until you tell me what our mr. Miller is up to. Youll only take it to your grave. Tell me something. In your legends, what does baskar mean . Of heaven . They know the secret. Baskar belongs to the kings who live forever. In my peoples legends, he who stands to the right of the great blue stone shall never die and will rule the world. Youre sure . These look like little bits of potteryo me. Of course im sure. This is right on the exact spot. There were other pyramids here centuries before these. They eroded. Ancestors. Hehes some more, sir. It was lying right on top. Hmm. This would be of the older civilization i just spoke about. So, they are not little bits of pottery. Not another waste heap, kitchen mitten, huh . Colonel, this is proof of my whole theory its the exact spot, i tell you we have dynamite. Ld tn this whole ground over in a a tter of seconds. No, no, no, no. Colonel, from now on, we go an inch at a time. But i dont know how long these tribes will allow us, doctor. I dont care. We found it this is the spot ive dreamed of. Here beneath us, the evidence of a ruled culture r. I say we dig with tiny brushes, not shovels. It may take weeks, months, to even start to find what. Get the party together. Well stop at the camp for our equipment. Well begin right now. Splendid, i am with you to the end. Father . Father, are you all right . Its. Its just. Come. . Miller, did you hear . Baskar is hidden right in these ruins. Oh, yeah. . Theres no way out. Im not so sure about that. All these are stone. That could only happen if theres calcium in here, and calcium would only get in here with seeping water. Now all i have to do is find that water. No, they are cursed. Theyre only pieces of stone. . Taan . I found our way out of here. Do you think you could swim . I think so. Okay, follow me. Who stays here . Millers place. You borrowed it for a minute . Lie down there. . Miller, he goes. Yeah, it looks like it, with roughly a million dollars, id say. Who does that belong to . With the sticks, he makes holes to steal from the dead. Those sticks are called dynamite. . Urt, we need drugs for his pain. Ill get help thth. No, no, i dont want the sentries to know. But i. Come in here, mary. Whats wrong with him . I think his ribs are crushed. Im going out to talk to miller. . Dynamite the ruins oh, no oh, father, come back let go of me lord oh, lord look. Just look what theyve. Done. . Tarzan, bring this man. . All our efforts, twentyfive years, what might have been the eighth wonder of the world. The savages have won after all. Colonel, lolo what theyve done. I will personally strangle this monster. It looks like azurite. The blue stone would have been found here. This is whats left of it. A chip, just a chip. Theres carvings on it. Its. Father father theres oxygen in the tent. . Well, you really put a good show on, dont you, colonel . But you didnt have to hit me in the head or shoot one of my boys. All my plans. Three years of trying to get dr. Singleton here to find it for me, and you destroy all that in a matter of moments. You are a clumsy man, miller. You do everything clumsily. Now, wait a minute, i was only trying to help. You told me itd take months to dig into that mound. What about the jungle, you think its gonna wait for us . Oh, no, you just wait till it explodes. Theres a thousand eyes out there just waiting, just watching for us. No, there are only two eyes watching you now, miller. Baskar would have given us wealth, respect, power. You sold all of that for a miserable handful of gold. Tatakombi. Look. . We found it its not destroyed . Baskar the blue stone of heaven . On your knees, miller. I said on your knees. What do you mean, on my knees . You should have obeyed my orders, miller. All those who do not obey baskar will join you at his feet. No, no i am king. I am god. You all hear . You all hear . The world will crumble at my command. It is written that he who stands to the right of the blue stone of heaven will rule the world you all hear . . Tatakombi tatakombi tatakombi tatakombi . We found it the statue . Baskar blue stone of heaven. . On your knees, miller. I said on your knees. What do you mean, what do you mean, on my knees . You should have obeyed my orders, miller. All those who do not obey baskar . I i king. I am god. You all hear . You all hear . All will tremble at my cocoand. It is written that he who stands to the right of the blue stone of heaven will rule the world. You all hear . You all hear takakombi . Ah. Well . Did you reach the capital yet . Not capital. Relay station. Well, the capitals over 200 miles from here. This little radio can only reach a government outpost about 25 miles from here anyway. Oh, i know all that. Did you tell them colonel takakombi wants the helicopter immediately . Answer tomorrow. Answer next day. Maybe. What . Well, you take this and keep on trying. You try, lady. Him try. Anybody try. No answer. No reach anywhere. Somebody drained all the gas out of the truck, sir. What . D em. We all by ourselves now. This whole place all by itself now. Except for those thousands of eyes out there watching us. . Halt right there, stop. . Stop all right put a rope around its head and lift it up straight. . Ah. If those ropes slip, the inscriptions may be damaged. Father only wanted to have the stone up here by the tent so that we could photograph all sides. Yes, i know,w,ear lady, but i have been working all night preparing to make baskar safe. In native legends, they say baskars supposed to bring his owner immortality. Yes. Immortality. Power. And patien. Once baskar is up there safe, my men can hold off a thousand tribesmen. Oh, but colonel, weve got to get a helicopter in here. To get father to a hospital. Cant get an answer . Yes, yes, i know, but have no fear. It will be working again bebere long. Before long might be too late. Were being watched from out therere . Yes. I know. I know. . Hoist make way . E owes me his life, and we might need him. Ill talk to him when i get back. I want you tell jai that ive gone to that government relay station, find out whats happened. I dont trust takakombi. Please. Please take this with you. No, no, keep that. You might need it. That Radio Station out 20 miles, i wont be back before dawn. I hope you dont have to, but dont be afraid to pull the trigger. Oh, i dont think i could ever do that. Not on a human being. Now, what if the radio in the village cant reach the capital, then. It will. Ill talk on it myself. . Matto. Baskar. . Or the blue idol. Go back to your people. Tell them of the idol. Tell them to come to me at once. Tell them to tell the other tribes that their master has been reincarnated. Baskar commands.
