Exploring unknown places has always been something Shen Jue does. She is certain that she came to this place when she was looking for August before, but at that time she felt that there were no clues here.
Since there was no danger here, Shen Jue only took a quick look around before leaving.
The location referred to in August is a stone forest.
The stones standing here are strangely shaped, and what's even more surprising is that this area has not been occupied by humanoid monsters either.
There wasn't even a shadow of a humanoid monster in sight.
This time, being high in the air, Shen Jue was surprised to discover that the distribution of this stone forest resembled a prominent human-shaped stone sculpture.
The current situation is similar to setting up a battle formation.
The information she knew was that the humanoid monsters were terrified of the humanoid statues. When she was searching for August, she had already found the humanoid statue. Here, a large group of stone forests formed a humanoid statue array, which was probably why no humanoid monsters appeared around this area.
These humanoid statues are probably deeply connected to the humanoid monsters, and may be the miracle that suppressed them. Shen Jue took out the humanoid stone sculpture, which was about the size of a figurine, that he had found when he was looking for August.
The moment she took it out, the human-shaped stone sculpture resonated with the human-shaped stone sculpture array on the ground, connecting with each other. In the darkness, Shen Jue felt as if she could manipulate this human-shaped statue with the stone forest as its array, but she knew it was impossible.
Although the statue in her hand is connected to the humanoid stone sculpture array below, there are still some obstacles. To fully control it, she would probably need the medium-sized humanoid stone sculpture in her hand.
Thinking of this, Shen Jue opened the chat interface and sent a message to Zhao Keke, asking if the medium-sized stone carving in her hand could be traded, as she wouldn't accept it for free.
Soon, Zhao Keke replied that the medium-sized stone carving in her backpack could not be traded. Although it could not be traded, it could be given to Shen Jue as a gift.
After saying these words, Zhao Keke suddenly thought that Shen Jue might have obtained some other clues, and their mission to find Han Dong was probably making progress. Currently, they needed to use medium-sized stone carvings. She had a flash of inspiration and asked the question she wanted to ask.
Shen Jue didn't hide anything and simply replied "yes".
Anyway, she needed medium-sized stone sculptures, and it was indeed to control the humanoid stone sculpture array. If she could control the humanoid stone sculpture array, then her subsequent actions would be much more convenient. Humanoid monsters fear the humanoid stone sculpture array, and they could move below without worrying about being ambushed by the monsters around them.
Soon, Shen Jue received a medium-sized stone carving as a gift from Zhao Keke.
Shen Jue took them out without hesitation. Now she had small and medium-sized stone carvings in her hands. As soon as the medium-sized stone carving appeared, it connected with the large human-shaped stone carving array below.
This time, there were no obstacles. The two stone sculptures floating in front of him and the large array stone sculptures all lit up with a faint white light.
Immediately afterwards, for some reason, August, who was following behind Shen Jue, rushed over and grabbed the small stone carving.
She spoke with some excitement, "I sensed it. The spiritual energy of Han Dong is the strongest on this small stone sculpture."
"Shen Jue, tell me, are we almost there for him?"
I'm about to see my long-lost lover, and I can't help but feel a little excited in August.
If you think about it, they haven't seen each other for a long time.
This was the first physical contact they had since they separated. Although she hadn't seen the real Winter, August believed that it wouldn't be long before she would be able to see Winter again.
Faced with the emotionally charged August, Shen Jue did not give her a definite answer, but only said a few ambiguous words: the human-shaped stone sculpture has the spiritual imprint of winter, but that does not mean that he himself is here. Shen Jue told August to calm down and not to have too high expectations.
In August, he verbally agreed, but in his heart he still felt that he could meet the cold winter, and he held such a hope.
After the three statues activated, a teleportation portal opened in front of them.
"Let's go in and take a look."
August rushed in first, and Shen Jue followed immediately.
Her initial feeling was wrong; August was anything but quiet and well-behaved. Her personality had already changed so drastically before even meeting Han Dong. If she actually met him, they'd be inseparable.
The thought of that scene is absolutely incredible.
Shen Jue wasn't worried about August rushing ahead, because she had given August a protection card to ensure her safety. If August really encountered danger, nothing would happen to her.
After Shen Jue and August entered the teleportation channel, they were unaware that a group of dazed humanoid monsters were slowly approaching the humanoid stone sculpture array.
They completely surrounded this place, layer upon layer.
...
Fortunately, after passing through the teleportation channel, Shen Jue and Bayue did not get separated; they were together as soon as they entered.
August, who was the first to rush in, thought something had gone wrong when she saw that Shen Jue was late. Her excitement plummeted, and her heart remained completely still, like stagnant water.
