The study was neither large nor small, though that made no difference to Li Wei.
He kept his eyes on the floor, inspecting it inch by inch, measuring it meter by meter, and feeling his way along bit by bit.
Fortunately, there was no carpet in the study, or the search would have been even more troublesome.
Ovelia had no idea what Li Wei was doing. She merely poked her head through the opening and looked around curiously without coming inside-Li Wei had told her to wait outside, so she obediently did just that.
"...Hmm?"
But as Li Wei felt around a certain spot, he suddenly felt heat on his finger.
Li Wei lowered his head and saw that the red ring on his right hand was once again giving off a faint red glow.
What kind of radar function was this?
Li Wei stared at the ring on his finger, utterly baffled. He knew games had similar scanning mechanics for finding things: you turned in a circle, used a device to locate the direction with the strongest signal, locked onto it, then kept adjusting your course until you reached your destination.
That mechanic appeared in games all the time, but this was Li Wei's first encounter with it in real life.
Li Wei moved his arm and felt the heat from the ring rise and fall. Then he slowly swept his arm through most of a circle, checking his direction as he would in a game, before settling on the direction in which the ring felt hottest.
Then Li Wei slowly walked forward.
The ring gradually grew hotter, though not unbearably so. At the same time, the glow from its gemstone grew brighter. By the time Li Wei stopped, the ring was almost as bright as a small LED
