"Is... is this all I have to do?"
Before the pitch-black altar, Arganzo stared blankly at Fang Mo in the distance. "Can this really revive Luke?"
At that moment, he held a black Tinkers' Construct hammer in his left hand and a clump of weeds in his right. Fang Mo had also put a red halo around his neck, and standing before the ritual pedestal like that made him feel indescribably awkward.
