Since the explosion isn't enough, let's add ice. With the combination of fire and ice, the stone tablet definitely won't be able to withstand it.
Under the combined effects of the lava card and the ice rock card, the stone tablet finally could not withstand the pressure and collapsed with a crash, sending rubble flying everywhere.
"That's great, August isn't chasing us anymore, but... she seems to have fainted."
Lin Jiao's surprised voice came through the team's microphone.
Shen Jue felt relieved upon hearing Lin Jiao's words.
Are you all alright?
Zhao Keke: "No, no, we took turns walking her around, she wasn't injured at all."
Hearing that they were unharmed, Shen Jue was relieved.
When Shen Jue returned to the others, they all gathered around August. August was lying quietly on the ground, having lost the terrifying attack she had just displayed.
Her pale face made her look even more delicate.
Shen Jue squatted down and carefully examined August's condition.
"Who among you has the best healing skills?"
The group exchanged glances, and after a moment, Xia Xiyue stepped forward. "My healing skills are decent, I'll do it."
Xia Xiyue squatted down, her hands glowing with a soft light, and gently covered August's body.
As the light flickered, August's complexion seemed to gradually regain some color.
However, just when everyone thought everything was getting better, August suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were filled with confusion and wariness, and her body jolted so violently that she almost sent Xia Xiyue flying.
"Don't be afraid, we're here to save you," Shen Jue said softly.
August looked around at the people, the wariness in her eyes slowly fading, but a trace of doubt still remained.
Who are you? Why am I here?
Shen Jue patiently explained their identities and what had happened before.
August listened quietly, gradually recalling some fragments.
"So that's how it is... I was controlled by that stone tablet." August's voice was somewhat weak.
“It’s alright now, the stone tablet has been destroyed by us,” Mu Sheng said, then asked.
"Can you tell me why you're here?"
August frowned slightly, trying hard to recall what had happened before.
"I only remember that I was doing research on a small island and accidentally came across a stone tablet. Then the stone tablet was moved and a human-shaped statue was revealed. Later, I found that I was feeling very unwell. I also kept forgetting things. After that, I don't remember anything else."
After speaking in fits and starts in August, he finally looked at Shen Jue and the others.
"Are you here to rescue me and Han Dong?"
"I lost Han Dong, and I don't know where Han Dong went."
"If possible, please help me find Han Dong."
[New quest triggered: Search for Winter!]
"We've triggered the next mission."
Shen Jue was also very happy because her side quest had changed. The side quest was not only about finding the cold winter, but she had also triggered another branch of the side quest.
Side Quests: 1. Find Winter. 2. Trigger Hidden Event.
