Hao Xuan returned the shield back to Burak who immediately integrated it with the main part, recovering some of its original size and condition. Hao Xuan grabbed the legs of the three unconscious Barbarians and moved back in more or less a straight line while providing Burak with audio clues through spiritual sense to provide cover for him while trailing behind.
The 60+ meter distance was covered in around three minutes. But when they entered the cavernous confines of the Pyramid once again, something quite strange and unexpected happened. All the barbarians, Burak included, suddenly regained their senses.
Burak's previously cloudy eyes suddenly cleared up and he looked around in shock.
"Human!" he grabbed Hao Xuan's shoulder in elation, startling him.
"W-What?!"
"HAHA! I can see and hear again!" he reported proudly for some reason.
Hao Xuan's eyes narrowed in contemplation. How was this possible?
