"Damn…"
Everyone stared, wide-eyed and amazed. It felt like if Ethan stayed in Blackhand City a few more days, he might just haul the whole damn place out with him.
Soon enough, under their busy hands, the library—silent for over half a year—finally lit up again.
The glow pushed back the darkness, bringing with it a sense of safety, even a touch of warmth.
In the lonely, pitch-black city, this was the only place with a light on.
Under that light, they sat down for dinner. Thanks to the supplies they'd looted from the compound, the meal was surprisingly lavish.
Ethan, meanwhile, pulled out an S-grade crystal core and popped it straight into his mouth. A rich surge of energy flowed through his limbs, spreading warmth and power to every corner of his body.
Then he took out the Star Map tablet. Under the Radiant Crystal's glow, it absorbed energy even faster.
Mia glanced over, clearly intrigued.
