Chapter: 347

Meanwhile Jay was commanding his skeletons mentally.

“ALWAYS gather ALL loot from creatures. ALWAYS!” he enforced a new rule on his skeletons, yelling through his thoughts to them as he gritted his teeth.

Jay got so caught up with the soul stone quest he received that it was like he got tunnel vision.

The skeletons happily obliged, following their master’s new order, which was more like a rule now as they started to get helvetian rings from the corpses too.

“I don’t even want to calculate how much gold I’ve lost.” He shook his head, still frustrated.

Anya was still collecting the loot with hungry eyes and a tiny smile, not missing a single statue as she ignored Jay’s weirdness and went about her business.

“Anya, half of those are mine.”

“Of course.” she said, glad that Jay didn’t demand more since he technically did most of the work.

After looting all 25 corpses, they both took a break. Anya retrieved what crossbow bolts she could while Jay healed his skeletons.

Thankfully the skeletons didn’t suffer too much damage, so after restoring them Jay’s mana was still relatively high; his mind still sharp.

Now that they were ready, they began to march closer to the pyramid entrance.

The open doors of the pyramid still had six spearmen statues guarding the front, ever vigilant.

“Six statues, shouldn’t be too hard.” Jay said as he squinted at them, looking for traps.

“Hopefully.” Anya said, trying not to sound too doubtful.

“I’ll distract two of them, leaving a skeleton to fight each of the statues. You can attack one of the statues the skeletons are fighting so they can help the others before helping me.”

“Sure.” Anya nodded, readying her crossbow.


“Go.” Jay said, sending his skeletons in to fight.

He quickly then ran to the side and started smashing his hammer against two statues, successfully grabbing their attention and causing them to focus on him.

The plan was working perfectly so far.

With the two statues now slashing at him, he focused completely on dodging.

*pshew~*

Anya began blasting one of the other statues with her crossbow as chips and chunks of stone began to fly off and break away.

Jay was still focused on dodging as the two spearmen thrusting at him ceaselessly. The endless barrage of attacks keeping him busy.

Thankfully it didn’t take too long before the first statue was slain.
