"Where did the space stones go? They were in a cylinder. Did I drop it? I must've dropped it when that man killed me twice," Ning thought. He had been so in the moment with his fight against the man with horns and furry arms that he didn't even realize that he wasn't holding onto the cylinder full of space stones.
'Dammit, that's my one way back,' Ning thought. 'I need to go find it.'
However, Ning didn't immediately teleport back. He was still afraid of getting attacked by the man there, so he teleported over to his metal bead and only then teleported back.
He arrived on the battlefield again and looked around. The war continued to rage, but Ning ignored it. He only wanted to find his space stones.
"Where is it?" he asked the system just before he found it himself. A woman had found the cylinder and looked at it with evident greed in her eyes.
