章 280: One Way In

Three skeletons searched the room while Jay idly waited next to the safety of a large pillar, impossibly holding up the grand subterranean castle above.

Some sounds started coming from a nearby staircase.

“Knights.” Jay thought.

In moments, a light appeared. Another jar, carried by an intelligent knight in one hand, yet in its other hand, was something which was a cause for concern.

“Skulls… some of my skeleton’s skulls?” Jay creased his brows. “what are they doing with them?” he wondered.

“The skulls must have come from the skeletons slain under the gate before I closed it.” He thought, as the others had died recently.

Jay doubted they could use magic to track him with it, but whatever they were going to use it for couldn’t be good.

Worst-case scenario? They were going to test whatever weapons worked best against the bone skulls.

Best-case scenario? It was merely a trophy.
