"What is the point of those three tunnels? Do they lead to different areas?" Ruth asked as she followed behind Abby, who was standing behind Gloria.

That redhead looked at her husband, continuing her path without error, as she listened to him answer Ruth. "The left and right tunnels lead nowhere. One has an array of mental confusion that will make even level 89 Spiritual Sages go crazy. As for the other one, it is filled with murderous puppets, ready to fight anyone who dares to enter there."

"Gee, the people behind this place have put in many defense mechanisms, no? What's the point of that?" Abby asked.

He said. "At some point in the remote past, the sect behind this place and the Immemorial Graves Sect competed to possess every skeleton. That was their way of deciding who was the strongest and most powerful, the ability to have several of these skeletons."

"To them, that was like having many lands." He compared such a thing that was so important for sovereigns. "In any case, there have already been reports of members of these organizations stealing the other party's smaller skeletons. So these defense mechanisms serve to ward off that problem."

"But so much time has passed..." Ruth said in a low voice.

"Hmm, they made this place at a time when these mechanisms were needed. After that, it didn't make sense to change what already worked, so they left this place behind even after they put the flame seal in the area." Minos explained.

After he said that, he finally stopped his path and looked at them. "From where you are, you can relax a bit." He picked up his sword and gestured with it.

Swooish!

"As long as you don't go beyond that space, nothing will happen." He explained, allowing his wives to sigh and walk closer to him.

As they did so, they pointed their spiritual lanterns at the walls of that place. With that, they saw that the walls there appeared to be of a semi-transparent, grayish type of crystal. But at a certain point in this cave's walls, white bones gradually rose up the walls, going all the way to the ceiling, where a giant skeleton stood above them.

Minos looked up and saw that skeleton that looked very much like a giant version of a bird skeleton. "This is a primordial beast skeleton. No one knows what species it belonged to. Still, supposedly it was from the same period as those giant humanoid skeletons in our region."

Hearing this, the three women paid attention to the size of that skeleton and the sharp teeth in the mouth of that creature, which was as big as the mountain itself they were on.

"What kind of beast was it?" Gloria wondered. "For its size, it was much bigger than an adult dragon!"



Among earthly beasts, dragons were not the largest. But considering that these beings were focused on brute force, they were the largest in their range of strength and brutality.

There were more enormous beings, but they were not focused on brute force. Some were of the sensory type, others were more defensive, but no earth race had as much strength as the dragons and as close in size to theirs.

And seeing that creature that indicated that it was pretty fierce in life, Gloria could not help but compare it with the infamous dragons.

Minos then said. "Yes. There are skeletons of other beings similar to this one that is smaller. Supposedly the children of that race were born already the size of adult dragons."

"How does a creature like that get hurt?" The redhead pointed toward some bones that looked damaged by something unnatural. "Adult dragons often have bodies so strong that nothing but old age can defeat them... What about something like that?"

Abby commented. "The people of the Immemorial Graves Sect say that these creatures have brought the apocalypse upon themselves, self-destruction."

As they were talking, footsteps came from the direction of the tunnel they entered, and they all looked back to see the arrival of that middle-aged woman.

When they saw that, they all frowned, while Minos quickly acted to erase his group's tracks near the security area.

That woman finally caught up with them and laughed, seeing the splendid skeleton on the ceiling of that place. "What a magnificent creature!" She said aloud as she felt the flow of spiritual energy in those bones.

"Hahahaha, it was all worth it! Now I have something of extreme value to take back to the sect!" She ignored Minos and the women there, laughing in greed.

Minos frowned and moved before his wives, preparing to act against this newcomer. "Who are you?" He asked. "Were you following us?"

Hearing that, she put the skeleton aside for a moment. Then, finally, she looked at Minos, her original target in coming to this place.

"Minos Stuart, I am here to take your life! You have killed many of my family, so it is time for you to pay for all you have done!" She drew one of her weapons, intending to kill that young man with one blow.

"Many people from your family? An Empire family?" Minos readily understood that this woman could only be part of the Saints Killing Sect, the only organization he actually acted against in this state.

And with that in mind, he became much colder, no longer having any doubts about what needed to happen there.

Seeing this woman coming towards him, intending to attack him, Minos bent down and put his hands on the ground, making special seals to activate the traps in this place.

The point of all the traps there was to protect what the sect behind this place wanted to keep there, so it would make no sense not to have defense mechanisms at this point.

If a lucky person arrived there by accident, anyone in this place should have the means to stop an invasion or at least make it difficult.

A seal had not always surrounded this post, so there had been people in this and other places in the past to ensure the safety of these bones.





So when Minos gave his commands, the surroundings there immediately began to tremble, along with the appearance of golems on the crystal walls.

The woman in question saw such a thing and felt goose bumps, noticing the murderous intent forming in the air as those beings gained glints in their eyes, looking at her.

"What is that?" She shouted in surprise as she saw one of the golems emerging above Minos, already leaping toward her.

Seeing herself practically surrounded by these creatures, the level 72 Spiritual Saint shook with fear and screamed in desperation. "Minos, don't do this! Do you know who I am? I am an elder of the Saints Killing Sect! If you do this, that will be the end of you!"

"Am I doing anything?" Minos laughed. "You are mistaken, lady. They are the ones who will do something, not me."

As he laughed, those golems soon grabbed that woman's arms and legs, not taking long to butcher her as if she were a rag doll.

In the end, she screamed for less than 2 seconds before she even had her soul destroyed by those creatures.

Thus, the group's surprise attack from the Saints Killing Sect failed brutally, all eliminated without touching the hair strands on Minos' head!
