Zarek walked up to the statue, and he felt a great amount of resistance.
He paused once again, feeling that he might have been too hasty just now.
At first, he thought this place had to have some sort of exit hatch—or else how else would everyone who had been here have been evacuated to avoid him?
But what if there was never anyone here to begin with? If this place was so sacred, then the odds that there would be people frequenting it were limited.
Now that Zarek thought about it…
His head turned to where his Scouting Skill had picked up on the hidden exit.
The exit was small, and almost too well hidden. If not for his Scouting Skill, he would have never found it. That was because it didn't even have Matrix protections on it—it looked like normal wood paneling, a part of the decor of the room of worship.
Interesting…
Zarek took another step forward, and the resistance the statue was giving him grew greater. But he had an advantage right now that couldn't be understated.
