`Asterix and Cleopatra' is another delightful adventure where our Gaulish heroes travel to Egypt to help Cleopatra win a bet with Julius Caesar by building a palace within three months. However the oldest brother tells the other two to capture Panoramix while he knocks over the potion.
The two mercenaries are caught by Asterix and Obelix, who learn of what has happened to Panoramix. Edifis and Artifis reconcile and agree to build pyramids together, and Cleopatra gives Getafix some papyrus manuscripts from the Library of Alexandria as a gift. She gives this enormous task to her best architect Numerobis (despite his shortcomings), informing him that he will be covered with gold if he succeeds or thrown to the crocodiles if he fails. A furious Cleopatra then hurries to the construction site to berate Caesar. The Mercenary returns to Caesar and is given the gold while Panoramix is imprisoned. Cleopatra and Julius Caesar have made a bet, with Caesar wagering the project cannot be completed in a few weeks time. However, in this book Getafix makes an exception due to an extraordinary requirement (the need to force open a solid stone door inside a pyramid which apparently, even Obelix's regular level of strength is incapable of doing). His scheming rival Amonbofis proposes that they collaborate in order to build Caesar's palace on time and divide the reward between them the catch being that Numerobis alone be thrown to the crocodiles should they fail. Artifis and his henchman are forced to work on the palace, but without magic potion. There were many Cleopatras in History but, this is the famous one.
