Overview

The Egyptian Queen Cleopatra bets against the Roman Emperor, Julius Caesar, her people are still great, even if the days of the Pharaohs has passed. She yells (against all logic) to build a new palace for Caesar within three weeks. This honour drops into Edifis, since of her architects are busy otherwise or conservative in style. He would be to construct the palace and also become covered in golden or silver, if not, his fate would be to be eaten by crocodiles. Edifis calls upon an older friend The Druid Getafix from Gaul, who destroys a potion that gives unnatural power. Protect and in order to help the older Druid, Obelix and Asterix accompany him to his journey into Egypt. He's got the construction site assaulted by his own troops as a way to acquire the bet, not eliminate face, when Julius Caesar gets wind of this job achievement. But just like the regional pirates, he still has not relied on Obelix and Asterix.
