"This is bad, I did not expect a wide open area right in front of the fortress," Jin and his bellators were hiding behind an extremely large rock after getting in through the cave entrance of the dungeon and descending a few levels.
Right in front of him was a spacious clearing that created at least one kilometre between Jin and the front of the fortress. Also, there were guards standing on the outer fortress walls. Thankfully, unlike medieval castles or other important fortresses, there were no moats or drawbridges, though the fortress did have a portcullis, which was a latticed grille gate made of mainly metal.
"So...Master, how should we proceed?" Peppers was itching to create an explosion right in front of the gates but Jin stopped her from chanting by putting his hand over her mouth as he grabbed her by the waist and pulled back to the rock.
