Capítulo 179: The Dead Legion

The gate opened slowly, only to cause Jay and Anya to grip their weapon tightly for a moment once they saw what was on the other side.

Before them, a sprawling legion of stone guards were waiting.

Thousands of them, all kneeling towards the pyramid, surrounding it from every side. Behind the wall there were no more ruins and no traces of destruction - only a flat plane of the black stone covered with the statues.

To the left and right there were thousands more statues, stretching as far as the wall went - yet none of them moved at all.

Surely they would have heard, and even felt, the deep groaning sounds of the white gate opening?

Jay and Anya only held their breaths. They didn’t dare make a sound.

As they watched for a moment though, nothing happened. There was no movement on either side of the wall; only the soft cold wind which seemed unending in this dungeon.

“Surely they would have done something when Dark came flying over the wall?” Jay thought.
