章 54: 54. The Bat-Winged Primate Monster

As he eyed one side of the magic prison before him, a subtle hint of worry in his gaze, the nameless young man spoke quietly, "No," he replied. "Even if I knew, I wouldn't do it."

"Why not?" Kairav asked, frowning.

"Because there would be a massive surge of energy that could trigger an explosion," he explained. "This bridge would collapse, the magma below would erupt uncontrollably, and you'd be in serious danger."

Hearing this explanation, Kairav scratched the back of his neck. "Ah… I get it," he muttered. "But what are we supposed to do now?" He looked around in confusion, his eyes scanning the area until he suddenly froze, his head tilted up toward the ceiling.

"Isn't that a Gong Ageng?" He murmured, squinting as he tried to identify an object hanging from the ceiling, partly obscured by thick vines and ancient dangling chains.
