Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Chapter 258 Opening the Treasure Box

Backlund is 236 meters underground.

Underground City Banyan Street.

After wandering in the underground city for more than ten days, Luna finally returned to Banyan Street.

When she defected from Abraham, Luna was attacked during her spiritual journey. The dangerous and chaotic spiritual creatures left a huge scar on her leg, and the wound, which was so bright that it was eroded, showed that the pollution was deep-rooted. This wound has not healed until now. It not only disturbed Luna's spirituality and reduced her extraordinary power, but also made Luna's spiritual journey very dangerous and blind, greatly increasing the possibility of getting lost in the spiritual world.

This time, in a desperate escape, the spirit world directly sent Luna to an abandoned underground city that had collapsed. The good news was that the ruins were recorded on Luna's map, so she could roughly know her location. After more than two weeks of digging and exploring, Luna finally returned to Banyan Street.

Rad's hut was just ahead. Luna trembled and walked forward, holding onto the wall. The lack of supplies and the wound on her leg made her journey very difficult. If she were not a Beyonder, Luna felt that she would not be able to hold on for so long.

The worn and rusty iron door actually made Luna feel a little warm to the touch. She opened the door, walked through the locked gate, and stumbled into the shabby room she had not seen for a long time.

It was still the same as she remembered, small, dark, and shabby, but unlike what Luna remembered, the house seemed to have become tidy. It looked as if someone had specially tidied up this doghouse-like place. Spiritual intuition and divination told Luna that, apart from Rad and herself, no third person had entered the house during this period.

The heavy, worn-out clothes were still dusty, but they were carefully folded and packed into tattered cardboard boxes, neatly stacked on rickety shelves. The scraps of paper and dust on the floor were cleaned up, revealing the original mottled floor structure. A simple desk made of a box and a plastic board was squeezed next to the bed. This was a new piece of furniture that Luna had never seen before.

An irresistible vitality emerged from this shabby and dilapidated room.

Before Luna left, Rad didn't tidy up the house so diligently. Although he wanted to keep his house tidy, due to the oppression of the black factory and the lack of food, Rad's mental and physical strength were drained by the oppressive and busy life. He had no energy to clean the room and could only symbolically tidy up the room every week to give himself some comfort. Most of the time, Rad tidied himself after dinner, listened to Luna's small literacy class, and had to go to sleep for the rest of the time.

The familiar environment had changed dramatically, and a wave of doubts came over her. Luna walked to the desk to check and found a strange electronic device on it.

An e-book.

The first thing that occupied Luna's mind was actually fear and anger. During the time she lived with Rad, she had eliminated all electronic products and Internet-connected devices in the shabby house. As an Abraham technician, Luna knew very well that modern hacker technology could reach such a terrifying level with the support of extraordinary power. Coupled with her resistance and fear of being captured and brought back to Abraham, she sometimes even felt that any electronic product around her might have buried Abraham's virus.

Then Luna slowly calmed down. She was a very strong coward, so she didn't dare to reflect on how terrible her thoughts were. She just checked the hardware, software and extraordinary power of this electronic book that came out of nowhere, just like checking every electronic product she encountered.

The e-book was only the size of a palm, an old model that was popular decades ago and is now worthless on the black market. There was no sensitive information stored in the device, just some simple enlightenment books.

Someone gave Rad this e-book reader and a lot of study materials.

This directly proved to Luna what she had previously suspected: someone was teaching Rad to read and learn.

But... this person definitely did more than just teach Rad knowledge. The changes in the room were enough to show the huge changes in Rad's living and mental state, which was not something that could be achieved by just one or two months of enlightenment courses.

This man's interference in Rad's life is a bit too much. What on earth does he want to do?

Is their target Rad, or... me?

Luna became increasingly uneasy, and she decided to do a thorough inspection of the shack. She began to dismantle the makeshift desk, unpacking the boxes that supported it, and checking the boxes that were lined up on the shelves.

Who is it? Is it sleeping? Who is it?

From Abraham? From the underground city? From Backlund? Or from the stars?

Are they coming for me? Or are they coming for Rad?

What on earth are they going to do?

For cowards and weaklings, the signs of danger often have a terrifying magic. As long as a drop of it flows into the sea of ​​​​heart, it will immediately turn into a deep and dark fear, turning the originally not very clear spring water into a pool of sludge with methane, driving them blindly to search or escape, desperate to eliminate the source of danger.

The spiritual warning tortured Luna's mind. She completely ignored the tidiness of the house and rummaged through the boxes in the small space. Finally, she stopped in front of a box.

Rad was on his way home. After the factory life was adjusted, Rad could have half a day off every six days of work, and today was his precious rest day.

Rad had already made his vacation plan while on the factory assembly line. He wanted to read the enlightenment book given to him by his mentor last time again and review the notes he took this week. This kind of continuous learning life made him feel an indescribable sense of fulfillment for the first time, and even made him grow a small flame in his heart: if he continued like this, one day in the future, he could really get rid of the life in the underground city completely.

With his imagination running all the way, Rad took out his key and opened the door of his house. He gently pushed open the iron door, and a pair of familiar shoes appeared in his narrow field of vision.

Is this... Sister Luna's shoe?

Sister Luna is back!

Rad excitedly pushed open the door and rushed into the room. He was about to shout the other person's name loudly, but he just stood there in a daze.

Luna, covered in wounds, sat in the messy shabby house. She looked haggard, her clothes were covered with mud and dust, and she looked very embarrassed. However, her frightened and even somewhat crazy expression made Rad feel a little scared.

In her trembling hands was a dazzling red robe.

"Rad, where did this come from?"
