Chapter 2006. Little Stone
The Stone Cow strutted around the valley like it owned the place. The ordinary, small Stone Cows were avoiding it. They seemed afraid of it. One of the smaller cows was too slow to get out of its way, and the creature found itself rammed to the ground. Its body was cut by the large cow’s horns.
The small Stone Cow did not fight back. It merely squealed and scrambled away.
The Stone Cow walked around the valley, going into its deeper recesses.
The walls of the valley blocked Han Sen’s vision, so he decided to find a new spot to observe from. He climbed up a mountain that was near the valley, using vines as cover. When he found a good place to rest, he used his sniper scope to watch the Stone Cows.
A path wound across the center of the valley, through a small pass, and into a smaller valley. There weren’t any small Stone Cows in the smaller valley. After the Stone Cow entered, it went to lay down beneath the boughs of a tree. It didn’t look as if it was resting, though.
The cow settled itself and looked at the tree. It stared intently as if it was gazing at something in particular.
Han Sen looked at the tree, but he couldn’t see anything noteworthy about it.
The tree was very thick, and it was thirteen meters tall. The top of the tree looked like an umbrella. Because he was too far away, Han Sen couldn’t feel the tree’s aura. He couldn’t even see any fruit on the tree. It was just a green-leafed tree.
“Weird. The valley doesn’t seem to have any special qualities, so how did the Stone Cow remove the wound I made with Teeth power? The Stone Cow can’t possess an ability like that itself, or it wouldn’t have allowed the Teeth power to do so much damage when I fought it yesterday.” Han Sen continued watching the cow, hoping to find some answers to his questions.
