That sudden movement froze his legs at that moment. Unable to think further he went closer to the thing this time to finally find out its real identity. Then the object started to squirm. Yes, it really did that. He was sweating heavily but that was just a beginning. What happened next is just unbelievable.

The Name

When the object which he thought was some sort of artifact started to move, made Li really terrified of the situation.
