The three statues slowly marched forward with their spears pointing down, ready to meet the skeletons in battle.

To face this spear wall would be an impossible task if Jay was solo, an impenetrable wall of spikes threatening to pierce him as soon as he got too close – however, he was not alone.

The four skeletons flared out, and surrounded the small troop of three statues.

With each of them pointing different direction, their threat was completely gone. Their defensive formation was completely ruined.

Like the last four versus three fight, each skeleton kept a statue busy while Blue and Red would bully one of them while Jay watched patiently.

*Fwoosh~*

A spear narrowly missed Blue as it dodged to the side.

The skeletons were light and dextrous so shifting their weight to dodge was easily done. Not to mention the attacks of the statues were too obvious.

*Clunk*

Red took the opportunity to dash forward and bash its hammer against its back, stone chipping off at high speeds.

Jay was watching silently, but soon he realised the weakness of the spearmen – their range. If you can get close enough to a spearman, they are defenceless._.

Mentally, he commanded Lamp to dodge the next attack and jump forward, getting past the dangerous tip of the spear.

The advantage of the spear was its range, and if you could get past it, you could beat a spearman; of course, a competent spearman could back up quickly – however, these statues are slow because of their sheer size.

The skeletons were much faster than the statues, so Lamp easily got in close and started smashing its hammer against it.

However, Jay didn’t expect what happened next.

The statue seemed to grunt before kicking Lamp, sending the skeleton flying back out of spear range again.

Lamp took a little damage even though it did more, but if it were doing this for hours it would eventually die.

“Oops…” Jay thought, feeling a little bad about getting Lamp punished. He failed to realise that the sheer size of the statues would allow them to simply kick away their opponents.

The statue, now unhampered by Lamp, then went over to help its comrade, and it would have gotten in a free hit on one of the skeletons, but the skeletons all quickly backed away from each of their fights.

Thankfully Blue noticed and had the other skeletons back off as they waited for Lamp to recover.

“Ok… so I’ll have to heal Lamp after the fight; It seems like the skeletons have probably found the most efficient way to fight. After all, they have been doing this for days now.”

Jay gave Lamp over to the command of Blue again and went back to passively watching.

Before long, Lamp got up and pre-occupied the statue again while Red and Blue finished off another.

Sweeper was doing well distracting a statue as well, and soon the other skeletons came to help; the fight was over.

It only took about seven minutes, and if Jay hadn’t disrupted, it would have been five.

Jay gathered the loot and continued along the black highway towards the second pyramid.

Eleven more of the huge twin pillars remained along the highway, each with their sets of 3 spearmen statues.

In between each group of spearmen were another 2 swordsmen statues.

The skeletons employed the same strategy, easily defeating the statues as they progressed along the highway, of course the swordsmen statues were easy pickings since there was only two of them. Jay didn’t even bother to stop walking towards them.

At some points, Jay got bored and helped out a few times which helped things to go slightly faster.

All in all, it was one hour and twenty minutes before he reached the front of the pyramid, providing Jay with 1560 exp.

Jay stopped before the second pyramid, it was larger and more majestic than the first.

“Damn…” he shook his head as he stood at the entrance, unable to find the words.

He peered into the darkness through the pyramid gateway; just as dark as the first one except for large circles of light leading to a large simple throne with a statue sitting on it.

“Huh, this one is a bit more simple.”

The large circles of light came from holes in the ceiling, and after looking upwards Jay found there was bright sunlight coming from above; though from the outside of the pyramid, there was no sunlight in the sky or skylights on the pyramid.

Jay had a strange feeling when he looked up at the fake sun through the ceiling, it looked far too real.

Three large circles of light were between him and the throne, each of them about 50 meters across, as well as another circle shining on the throne.

Between each circle was a group of three spearmen statues, waiting in the darkness.

“I wonder why they aren’t waiting in the light?” Jay thought.

It wasn’t dark enough to tell that they were just spearmen, and he was close enough to the first group to see that they were also level three – It wouldn’t be hard to get through them.

“Hmm… what’s the trap going to be..” Jay expected a trap as he now knew the motives behind the creation of these pyramids since he talked with Sedulus.

Every pyramid was designed as a trap to lure in their centuries-old enemies.

On the throne sat a large female statue with golden glowing eyes; it had a similar female figure to Sedulus, slender and tall.

Above the throne was a kite-shaped glowing stone which looked enticing to Jay.

“Another fake treasure I’m guessing.” Jay thought as he restrained his greed.

Jay wasn’t close enough to analyse the large statue, but he couldn’t see any weapon so he could only guess what kind of a threat it may be.

“Well, no point waiting.”

Jay pulled out his shield and hammer, and began walking into the light, crossing the circle to start the battle with the statues in the shadows.

Suddenly the statue on the throne began moving and was standing up. It was still far away so Jay wasn’t too concerned, but he watched it anyway.

Jay squinted suspiciously as he walked slowly towards it.

The spearmen soldiers in the darkness didn’t move, it seemed like they were waiting for Jay to come to them.

“Fine.” he though, having his skeletons charge forward and encircle them.

Suddenly a bright light from the throne, the statue at the throne was holding what appeared to be a long glowing golden stick.

However, it only took a moment before Jay realised what it was as it pulled back a golden string – it was a bow. A large golden bow.

It was seemingly made from magic, though Jay couldn’t sense it at all.

“Shit…” Jay suddenly realised the predicament he was in as the statue continued to draw back its first shot.

Immediately, he ran forward to the first three statues that stood in the darkness.

Each of them prepared for his charge with their spears pointed forward, it seemed like they were trying to stop him from making it to the next circle, of course this was in vein as they soon had to turn to face each of the skeletons, their defensive formation made useless.

Seeing that the archer was about to fire, Jay charged as he was going to use the spear statues as a shield.

“Hopefully the archer statue will hit its own troops in their backs.” he glared with one eye on the spearman statue before him, and another eye on the archer much further behind.
