Thinking of this, Shen Jue took out a specially made transparent container and tried to put the little black dragon inside.
This container is made of special materials, which can prevent the creatures inside from escaping, and at the same time allow Shen Jue to observe the little black dragon's condition at any time.
After capturing the little black dragon, Shen Jue filled the special container with enough sedative potions to ensure that the little black dragon wouldn't wake up while she explored other locations.
After putting away the container, Shen Jue continued to explore the cave, hoping to find more clues about the mysterious symbols.
She wandered through the cave and discovered a hidden passage. This passage was very narrow, only wide enough for one person to pass through at a time.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Jue decided to go in and find out what was going on.
She moved slowly through the winding passage, which occasionally branched off into other paths. Guided by her intuition, Shen Jue chose the path that seemed most likely.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Shen Jue finally saw a glimmer of light.
Upon entering, they discovered that these were stone chambers that had been carved out by humans. There were signs of use inside one of these chambers, including a table, chairs, and a bed.
Shen Jue even saw food scraps. However, these scraps had long since weathered away, turning to ashes at the slightest disturbance, suggesting that this had happened a long time ago.
There is no sign of life here anymore; even if there were, they have long since vanished.
On the only stone table in the stone chamber sat a book. Shen Jue stepped forward, and after confirming that the book's surface was not poisonous, he picked it up and began to examine it.
This is an unnamed book, and its contents are annotations of strange symbols.
Judging from the description and explanation, it seems that someone translated it through some means.
Shen Jue quickly figured out what was being translated.
After reading the book, Shen Jue carefully reviewed all the strange symbols she had seen before.
This led to the discovery of detailed information about some of the strange symbols.
This time, her hidden missions have increased by 5%.
After all this time, her hidden side quest has finally reached 90%, which is quite an achievement.
I didn't expect the hidden quests for the Merfolk to be so difficult to progress.
Shen Jue also understood that the Merman King was performing some kind of ritual with unknown effects.
The sealing ritual on the little black dragon's side was of unknown use. She put the little black dragon into a spatial container, which actually helped it get out of its predicament.
I wonder if it will thank her when it wakes up in the future?
After all, it would be quite difficult for the little black dragon to leave this place on its own.
Doing things halfway is not her style.
The annotated book in my hand is only half complete; clearly, the second half has been torn out.
The first half of this book is a commentary on rituals, while the torn-out second half is supposedly a method for breaking the rituals.
Could the second half of the annotations have been destroyed?
This is what Shen Jue is worried about. What if the second half of the ritual is destroyed? How will she complete her mission?
Does she have to translate it herself?
If that's the case, then it's just too far-fetched.
Let's continue exploring this cave to see if there are any hidden caves. Shen Jue left the stone chamber.
Then they circled the cave. They found no other passages, so it seemed the latter half of the annotations would be lost.
Shen Jue had no choice but to leave and rejoin the other two. This peculiar island hadn't been explored yet; perhaps there would be new discoveries…
