Capítulo 43: Extracting A Gold Coin

"Looks like I've got this one," August voiced with a smirk. He selected "Yes," and after a brief loading bar, the chest unlocked with a faint click.

Ezran whistled. "Talk about a jackpot."

August had really been in need of new armor so this was perfect.

As they distributed the loot, they could feel their progress as a team. The lower section continued to challenge them with more enemies and various traps—swinging pendulums, hidden pressure plates, and narrow corridors filled with spikes.
