The four of them immediately stuck close to the wall, carefully listening to the sounds outside.
Sean Knight activated his Sky Eye and looked outside, discovering that the exterior of the big iron door was not the true "outside" but rather the perimeter of the Divine Temple, surrounded by a semi-closed surrounding wall.
However, the entire temple was currently shrouded in sand, and even with his Sky Eye, he couldn't see what was beyond the two layers of space.
The gunshots came from outside the semi-closed wall, Sean Knight whispered to Elijah Hastings and the others:
"Let's get past this iron door first. The gunshots are still distant."
Once Elijah Hastings and the others managed to calm themselves, they also arrived at the same conclusion and approached the big iron door.
The iron gate was locked from the inside, they twisted open the long rusted lock and opened the gate.
