Chapter 556
“They’re all empty.”
On the second floor of the Hall of Heroes, Olivia and I opened various sarcophagi and confirmed that the remains were missing.
There were too many sarcophagi to open them all, but we did not need to check them all to know that they were all empty.
Harriet and Connor Lint were dazed.
“This... it seems...”
Harriet’s eyes found mine. “Perhaps someone else also had the same idea?”
“Yeah...”
Bringing back past heroes as undead and using them to bolster their forces... Olivia’s idea had been peculiar and grotesque, but it was a human who had come up with that idea.
There was nothing to say that others couldn’t think the same thing.
Connor Lint was still in shock. “S-so, someone else came in here like us, reanimated the bodies and took them away...? Is that it? It’s strange that there hasn’t been an uproar over this. Honestly... if it weren’t for my ability, you guys wouldn’t have been able to get in here so easily...”
If the mausoleum had been broken into earlier, there would have been a big commotion. Connor Lint’s point that others would have left traces, even if we hadn’t, was valid.
“Why are you assuming that some other faction did this?” I said.
