Zion exchanged a glance with Calvin, and they both nodded.
"I'm not interested," Zion said firmly.
K smirked, tilting his head slightly. "How boring~"
Zion ignored him and gestured for the group to move on. "Let's go."
As they walked, Yin's thoughts churned. Why didn't you fight them, Zion? His fists clenched involuntarily. You know damn well you could've beaten them. So why…?
Before he could dwell on it further, Zion's voice broke through his thoughts.
"Hey, look!" Zion pointed toward a large black bag dangling from the high roots of an ancient tree. "That bag probably has some materials in it!"
He then turned to the group. "The real question is—who knows how to climb a tree?"
Yin raised his hand without hesitation. "I can climb it," he said in a neutral tone.
Zion grinned. "Alright! Do your best!"
Wasting no time, Yin grabbed onto the thick roots and small ledges of the tree, pulling himself upward. As he climbed, he noticed something odd.
The tree's surface… it's wet?
