"SAY SOMETHING!!" Lu Sheng yelled in frustration at the System's silence.

[Host, that beast was searching for more spirit beads. Why do you think that? What is its purpose?]

"How the hell am I supposed to know that? And how is this..." Lu Sheng paused, realizing there might be something significant about the Spirit Bead.

"Are you sure you'll be able to retrieve the Spirit Bead again?" Lu Sheng asked, his tone softening.

Lu Sheng looked at the Spirit Bead lodged in the chest of the man-wolf beast, still glowing but now much smaller than he remembered. His mind raced with questions and hopeful delusions about what if the Spirit Bead had something unique that could change their fate.

"Automate offensive stance, Attack, Thrust, Slash, Hack, Strike, Pierce, Crush, Cleave, Impale and Slaughter! Target Spirit Bead, take it back from that beast's chest before it consumes it all," Lu Sheng commanded.
