Chapter 202 - 202 (2/2)

Arc nodded, he also indicated that they would be entering the building soon. Over the past few days, Ruby and Jem came up with several group formations when exploring the ruins or even the regular swamps.

Ruby gestured with her hand, indicating that they are doing a high-security formation and that's having Arc in the Center, Arc no longer complains to that like before.

He nodded, and they began to approach the building, and the entrance is also dome-shaped. Much like what they assume the shape of the building as well.

It doesn't have a door of some kind, but for some reason, the inside of the building is very clean. There's not even a speck of dust or mud in it. Clearly, something is preventing those things from entering the building, the moment Arc entered the building, he felt something like a pulse or a heartbeat. But strangely different from that, he can't figure it out, the others notice the changes in Arc expression. Jem asked what it was, but Arc just shakes his head. He clearly has no idea of what he felt. He instinctively knows this is not what Nine has indicated about the Adams legacy. It's more like his ability; the energy manipulation is at work. Still, unfortunately, with the current mastery of his ability, he can't figure it out, he can feel it, but that's about it.

He suddenly ordered others to stop. ”Wait, this building is dangerous. He said as sweat was forming in his forehead, he was trying to resonate with energy in the building but ended up being suppressed by it”.

Arc's mind is churning; he no longer pays attention to his surroundings, he couldn't even hear the others calling to him. He was focused on protecting himself from the sudden pressure the building is giving him.

”Boss!, Boss!”

Ruby's calls woke him up.. He looked around and saw everyone was looking at him. He was covered in sweat, but the pressure was gone..

”I, I'm ok” he was about to order a retreat when suddenly he heard a voice.

”It's fine there's no danger here especially for you.”

He was surprised he knows that voice, it's a voice he hadn't heard in a long time, Adam.

”You're awake? What do you mean?”

But there was no response, did he imagine it? He asked himself.. ”Nine was that....''

”Adam,” that's the only word Nine said.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he gestures to others that he was ok.

”Don't worry I just felt some energy and i tried to attune to it but failed. Let's just continue exploring.”

The others nodded, they didn't ask more as they know if their Boss wants them to know, he would tell them. So Ruby lead the group next to her was Jem, behind Arc, several meters apart were Biggs and Wedge taking up the rear, and surrounding Arc a few steps away are four top grade Droids under Eve, and finally next to Arc was Eve with her enhanced body similar to Legion only smaller. Eve's body is special, it's the same as her first body, which Arc won by using the lottery. It's a liquid type of droid using 3-star tech, and what's more, it can continuously upgrade by absorbing different materials. Unfortunately, he only managed to get one even after opening several lottery boxes by completing quite a few regular missions.

He also got an exoskeleton armor that's 4-star rank, giving him more life-saving treasures to protect his life.

He also got a lot of health potions and one other thing that makes him super happy, unfortunately, he can't use it yet.

The group makes their way into a hallway.

Ruby and the rest were confused. This is clearly not a facility of any kind.  If they didn't know better, it looks like a house, that's right, the setup is like a luxurious house, and where they are standing in what looks like a living room, they were sure this is just a regular house. And when Arc saw the portrait hanging on the wall, he was stunned.
