The bot twitched violently before collapsing.
However, before she could celebrate—
Another bot pounced at her from behind, extending its arm blade.
Selene ducked, barely avoiding decapitation, and then vaulted backward, before using the momentum to kick the bot off the ledge.
It fell into the abyss below, sparking as it plummeted.
Selene grinned. "Alright. I'm having fun."
But then—
A red light flashed beneath her feet.
She looked down.
The self-destruct bot had locked onto her position.
"Oh. Well, that's a problem."

Back at the lower portion of the statue, Victor and his team began their climb.
Victor crouched down and adjusted the grip on his sword before glancing at Rylan.
"Hop on."
The dark-skinned healer blinked.
"What? Why?"
"Because you're slower than a sloth on sedatives, and we need to move fast."
Rylan scowled.
"Wow. Rude."
