As Ye Buyu fired, Lou Guanshan sealed off the surrounding ground, ensuring that the [Perception Controller]'s core could not escape for the time being.
After taking a shot, the [Perception Controller] fell at Ye Buyu's feet with a plop, leaving both Lou Guanshan and Ye Buyu, who had been bracing for a formidable enemy, momentarily stunned.
The two looked down and stared at the gem on the ground, which stared back. The scene was comical and absurd.
Even Su Wuwei, watching through the Terminal, froze.
Wait... they could run into it like this?
Yang You, who was pouring tea for Wang Jianshe, stared blankly. Wang Jianshe gaped at the screen, not even noticing as the tea overflowed the cup's rim and spilled onto his fingers.
Ye Buyu opened her mouth. "Trying to scam us?"
The gem fell silent. This feeling...
Lou Guanshan trapped the [Perception Controller] in a stone cage. It was a King-level Calamity, after all. Although it seemed to have left all its power in its shell to survive, keeping it locked up was still safer, just in case.

The message clearly read: Minister Wu, the [Perception Controller]'s core escaped, but it happened to run into us, so we picked it up.
Wusu was utterly bewildered. In other words, while he was still fighting, Ye Buyu and Lou Guanshan had already caught the core?
A stampede of mythical beasts thundered through
