Chapter 260: Stone Statue (Part 4)

Gnorlin was impressed by Kaizen's gesture of using himself as bait for the Gorgons, and having no time to discuss another plan, he took the shield and used it to peer into the corridor to see if the Gorgon was still there. The clear metallic surface inside the shield reflected the entrance to the huge chamber filled with statues, so he saw that the Gorgon was no longer there. Then Gnorlin breathed a sigh of relief.

"She's gone." he said in a low tone. "So what do we do now? Do you lead or do I?" Monk inquired.

"You'll have to make way for me. When I hear or see the Gorgons, we'll split up. At that point, you will look around the room for your friends while I distract you. It's the only way." Kaizen explained.

Gnorlin nodded and prepared to enter the room with one last look at Kaizen.
