Chapter 1157
Because the hole was not too far away from the nest of the Metal Eaters, Han Sen approached it with great care . The last thing he wanted to do was make them aware of his presence there .
Han Sen wasn't afraid of the Metal Eaters; he had just been caught with his pants down when he encountered them before . He had only expected there to be the baby Metal Eater and no others . They were fearsome foes, and he simply wanted to exercise caution .
With great care, he approached the hole . If he caught sight of them again, he'd shoot off back into the trees as quick as he could .
Fortunately, though, he didn't see any of the creatures as he ventured towards the hole . He poked about its surrounding vicinity to ensure there weren't any lurking about, either . All seemed good .
Han Sen squatted down at the hole . The hole was around the size of a bowl, and he could not tell how deep it went . Due to the hole not being completely vertical, scanning what may have been down there was difficult .
"Maybe I should just dig a hole of my own . " Han Sen summoned his Devil Pill and created a shovel . With that, he started to dig .
The soil was cumbersome to dig up, as there were many rocks to remove . Fortunately, Han Sen was a very strong man . He managed to dig a hole for himself that was five meters deep in no time at all .
Quite the feat, considering the ground was mostly rocks beneath the thin layer of grass and soil .
Dong!
Han Sen's shovel struck something quite hard, and try as he might, he could not dig any further .
He was delighted at the discovery, and he knew that he had come across something remarkable .
If it was just a rock, his shovel would have cut through it . With the shovel unable to break more ground, Han Sen had reached treasure for sure .
Han Sen quickly brushed away the soil, and soon after, a part of the item emerged . He froze when he saw it . It was actually rock, albeit one that seemed to be extremely well-polished—unnaturally so .
There was only a small part of it showing, so Han Sen got to digging out the rest . With the shovel, he began to remove the other stones and soil around it . This rock he had stumbled across was far bigger than he expected . It ended up taking him far longer to dig it up than he initially expected .
The rock looked as if its top and its bottom had been cut clean through, leaving it at a height of two meters .
Its width, however, was easily ten meters . It looked as if it belonged to a part of something much bigger; when or what that was, however, was up for debate .
With nothing particularly remarkable about it, Han Sen thought to flip it over and see if he had missed something . The rock was not only surprisingly sturdy, it was surprisingly heavy, too . Try as he might, Han Sen could not lift it an inch .
Han Sen opened nine of his Blood-Pulse Sutra gene locks, wiggled his fingers beneath the rock, and then tried to lift it .
"Get up, you stupid rock!" Han Sen exclaimed .
Han Sen's face was as red as a beetroot, but he could not lift it more than a few inches . His body trembled with the effort he exerted in trying to lift it, but he ended up having to just let it go .
