Veron nodded as she listened to Bowen. She smiled and said, "This is really an interesting place. Thank you for bringing me here, Bowen."
Veron later entered the forest, intrigued. Bowen was delighted to hear what Veron had to say. He moved quickly behind her.
They soon arrived at the black stone stele. Veron cocked her head and discovered no words on the stone stele. There were only a few strange glyphs.
'It is so mysterious.' Veron pondered in her heart, unable to suppress her curiosity. She reached out her hand, wanting to touch the stone stele.
"Be careful!" Suddenly, Bowen exclaimed, "Don't touch it!"
Veron got scared and quickly retracted her hand back. She asked with doubt, "Why can't I touch it?"
Bowen regarded the black stone stele with solemnity. "A few years ago, the Queen dispatched someone to investigate. The person did exactly what you did. When he touched the stone stele, his hand became electrified. According to the tribe's elders, the stone stele was a magical weapon from the God in the Sky. It was used to suppress an ominous existence down below. In addition, I heard from some of the patrolling soldiers that when the weather was bad, lightning and thunder would congregate here. It is extremely dangerous."
'This stone stele can attract thunder from the sky?' The curiosity in Veron's heart increased. However, she did not dare to touch the stone stele. She walked around the stone stele.
Veron soon discovered something. She noticed that the trees surrounding the black stone stele appeared to have grown randomly, but if she looked closely, she noticed that they were placed in an array of the five elements and nine grids. She assumed it was a formation and that the stone stele was the formation's core.
Even though Veron was naughty and unruly, she knew a thing or two about formation due to her family's influence. Despite suffering from amnesia, she did not forget what she had learned.
'If that is really a formation, will the secret be revealed once I unlock the formation?' Veron thought and started to look around her.
"Miss Nine!" Bowen was curious why Veron started to walk around. "What are you looking for?"
