"How did you figure it out?"
Chen Jian continued to ask.
He Shuo shrugged and replied,
"Intuition."
"After all, we don't know what the ring is, and we also don't know what this metal is."
"Two inexplicable things are always naturally linked, right?"
"That's not wrong..."
Chen Jian pondered for a moment and then spoke:
"Let's put it away first, take it back to the base, and analyze it with our equipment."
"If it really turns out to be some undiscovered element in human history... we might be taking a significant step towards the truth of the apocalypse."
"Understood."
He Shuo nodded and then asked,
"But speaking of which... if this thing really is significant, would the Mountain City People... not know about it?"
"That's not necessarily the case."
Chen Jian chuckled.
"These monsters weren't created by them; they were just making use of them."
"We might just really get lucky this time."
"It's just uncertain how significant this find is..."
