At the entrance of the cave, a gentle breeze swept through, bringing with it a slight chill, as if it were a prelude to the impending unrest.
Lin Dong was intently inspecting the materials required for the antidote when suddenly, an inexplicable feeling made him alertly raise his head, his gaze like a torch scanning the surrounding empty and dim environment.
"Who, who's hidden in the dark?" Lin Dong's voice echoed within the cave, carrying an undeniable authority.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, trying to capture any slight movement. However, apart from the sound of the wind, all remained silent.
A few minutes of silence seemed to stretch to the extreme, just as Lin Dong thought he was being overly sensitive, a leisurely voice finally broke the tranquility:
"I hid so well, you actually managed to discover me, impressive indeed."
As the words fell, a figure slowly emerged from the shadow of the cave.
