Chương 497: CDXCVII. The Money Offer

Many meters before, however, at the end of the path that walked straight through the whole area, branching out to the various encampments, there was a gigantic mountain, much more similar to a shield volcano for its wide cone shape.

Above them, another important element had been obtained from the rock, namely a large horizontal beam with decorations along its surface.
