"I think you're right," said Jalen.
He looked ahead and saw that the huge stone in front of them resembled a creature,
as though it had been submerged in dust and hardened into rock.
Was it alive?
"It's so large!" Darren exclaimed, shaking his head. "I thought this was the end of the road."
Although his god's sense would be blocked outside, after he came in, his god's sense could be dispersed for a few kilometers.
Probing the huge rock, he realized that it was just a petrified creature lying on the ground.
Carefully, Darren used his god's power to test the stone. He peeled off a small bit of the surface.
"No response," he said.
Jalen watched him, then approached the stone himself.
He touched the surface of the creature's body. The stone layer was hard, but not impenetrable, and he found it easy enough to peel off a small portion as well.
Darren and Jalen peeled off strips of stone until they could tell that a black creature was trapped inside.
"It has black hair," Jalen muttered.
The two of them silently examined the visible strands of dark, shining hair and felt a slight tremor of fear. This thing was probably still alive.
They began backing away, their curiosity satisfied, intending to leave before they disturbed the creature any further.

"Good. Now let's get out of here. If that group of senior governors catches us, we're dead," Jalen said. The two of them could feel the great power of over a hundred senior governors gathered in one place. Even with the helmet in their possession, he and Darren would be killed if they had to fight them.
Suddenly, there was a massive boom.
They were retreating silently when a black light suddenly erupted from the helmet and soared into the sky, causing the earth to shake. Every single one of the senior governors turned to look in their direction.
"Damn it! My brassard resonated with the helmet!"
"They're coming for us! Run!"
As one, the group of senior governors rushed like lightning towards them. Darren and Jalen fled as fast as they could.
"They're getting away!" one of the governors shouted.
"Hurry up! Catch them!"
"Damn it! It turns out that someone else had the treasure all along. As soon as you catch them, kill them at once!"
Jalen felt terrified, sensing that the senior governors were catching up to them.
As they hurried, Darren forced out his blood essence, pouring it into the helmet. He placed it on his head.
Soon, the helmet was integrated into Darren's skull. Like the brassard, it could no longer be seen.
But the effect of the helmet was strange. It was different from that of the brassard.
