The liquid metal gathered again into a flat sphere, issuing a low, metallic whisper that was incomprehensible.
Even the Magic_bullet was of no use, and even divine words could not affect it... There was a moment when Aiden felt he was going to die here.
However, what happened next was that the mercury sphere did not attack Aiden, who had been cornered, but instead it undulated violently a few times before spitting out a cherry-sized object. The object shot out and hit the bars of the cell, bounced a few times on the ground, and finally rolled to a stop by Aiden's feet.
Then, the mercury sphere completely ignored Aiden and slowly crept towards the other cell.
Aiden realized that this thing no longer seemed to have any intention of attacking him—it didn't even bother with him.
He hesitated for a moment, then bent down to pick up the object that the mercury sphere had spat out.
