Unlike Duanmu Huai, Mary and the others found the clock located in the warehouse without much effort—the reason was simple: because Mary could see it.
"That's enough."
Mary grabbed Alicia with one hand and held her staff in the other, staring at the golden clock before her. In Mary's eyes, she could see the clock emitting a dazzling golden glow, and it was precisely this glow that penetrated the wreckage of the warship, allowing them to find this place so easily.
But that's as far as it goes. Duanmu Huai didn't destroy it, which could only mean that, in Duanmu Huai's view, it's not a threat. However, Mary also understood very well that since Duanmu Huai didn't take it, it means this thing isn't considered good by him—if it was something good, he wouldn't leave it here.
"He wants me to go up and touch this."
As the only person here currently able to communicate with the other party, Alicia dutifully conveyed the message she heard to the others.
"No way."
