Grey didn't know why he hadn't expected Barkeep Ji to follow them, but he had.
Of course, the treasure he was talking about was the very same one that was stopping them from using spatial elements right now. As for its location, it was the very same teleportation platform he had been hearing so much about.
It looked quite similar to the platform he had seen under the control of the Valdi: a stone with circuits etched into its body. Of course, these circuits were somewhat different, Grey just hadn't quite figured out how.
He had never studied them in real detail before.
Plus, there was something changing the purpose of this teleportation platform as well. At the center of it, there was an orb implanted into the ground, radiating a glowing reddish aura.
This was the treasure that was keeping Thi Lan and her land "safe".
By restricting space, the aliens couldn't freely teleport everywhere, and would have a much harder time reaching the main city.
