Chapter: 560

All of them then repeated the process but pushed from the other side this time.

*DRRRRRRRR*

The statue went back to its original position, and then kept going as they continued to push.

Anya and Jay both smiled as they looked down while pushing – there was something below the statue, a small opening glistening from within.

It seemed roughly made, but was filled with the same tablets the queen was holding – all nestled in some shining gold coins.

“Jack-fucking-pot” Jay grinned, his eyes shining right back.

With the statue fully moved, it was time to get the loot. Remembering what happened to the ore, Jay just decided to add it all to his inventory. He wouldn’t let it disappear like the sparkling ore did.

[500 gold]

“Only five hundred gold? So stingy…” Jay pursed his lips.

Unfortunately, the stone tablets didn’t enter his inventory, so he quickly got on his knees and pulled them all out of the hole, though he soon found it was merely a carved out hole in the white stone platform so he let the skeletons finish grabbing all of them.

Anya looked at him with puppy dog eyes, and Jay knew what she was waiting for.

“250 gold, here you go.” Jay smiled, “Nice work noticing that.” he encouraged her.

“Thank you very much. Imagine what the last pyramid is hiding…”

“Hmm, about that. I won’t be doing that today. Two is enough I think. Plus, I have to go back to the start for my quest.” Jay said, casually stretching his arms.

“Oh ok… well, maybe tomorrow?” Anya looked a little dejected but had some hope in her eyes.

“Sure, maybe tomorrow.” he nodded back.

Jay was glad she didn’t force him to make any promises as he looked across the stone tablets.

There were many of the tablets, but Jay was thankful as they were numbered.

“Hm, I hope it’s a treasure map, but probably not.” he thought as he began to glance over them. It seemed that they were all text.


[If you are reading this, you will come to know the truth about Helvetia. You will hate the truth, even though the truth will ultimately set you free.]

[Years before the event, the event which cursed our land, a building was destroyed in a large spell wave. This was soon blamed on a cult – though at the time, no such cult existed.]

[The cult was secretly constructed by our queen; the details were as intricate as the craftsmanship in this chamber.]

[Truthfully, there was no cult. It was all a lie.]

“Wow…” Jay passed Anya the tablets he read, and continued reading the others.

[The cult was made to protect the prince.].
