Chapter 4: Danger Part (2)
This stone could hurt the white-clad ghostly figure, so it was likely some sort of special item. Additionally, its small size made it harder to notice, even if there was some noise.
Moreover, if it could truly be enhanced, the power of the white stone would increase, making it much safer to deal with the previous ghostly figure.
With this in mind, Yu Hong picked up a white stone and looked at the little stutterer.
“Could you give me one? Thanks for saving me earlier! I’ll repay you,” he said earnestly.
The little stutterer shook her head.
“This one… it’s already useless,” she explained. “If you want it, just take it.”
Yu Hong nodded, took the white stone, and examined it.
The stone was about the size of a thumb’s nail. Its surface was marked with a dark red complex symbol that resembled some kind of religious talisman. A third of the stone had turned black, though it wasn’t clear why.
The stone felt icy to the touch, like an ice cube—chilling and somewhat bone-piercing.
