Chapter 380- Vault of Numerals (2)
As Simon was worrying about that, from the corner of his eyes, he saw a zombie being spawned with a key. He immediately made short work of it and held the key in his hand, his eyes wondered whether this was the right key or not.
Unlike the last time, Simon did not immediately rush out to try the key and instead waited for some time. The reason for that was simple, he wanted to know whether there would be another zombie that would spawn with a key while he was holding onto one.
His inquisitive mind wanted to solve more of the mysteries of this trial. His patience had proven right after a while, another zombie that had a key on its waist, spawned from the ground.
Simon used his claws that was buffed by curse energy to immediately dispose it.
Now, the next thing that happened surprised Simon. When he grabbed the second key, the first key that he was holding onto, scattered away like dust indicating that he can only hold onto one key at a time.
