Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Lunar Secrets and the Shadow of Uranus"This... is because we heard there were powerful weapons buried here," one of the space pirates hesitated before finally revealing.
"Weapons?" Mio’s eyes narrowed with interest. "Tell me everything you know."
"Yes!"
The space pirate, eager to save his life, began confessing everything he knew.
As it turned out, space pirates really did exist—though they were rare. These pirates lived on various scattered planets in the universe, but interestingly, many of them originally came from Qinghai. Their ancestors had ventured into space long ago and never returned, having adapted to the life among the stars.
Occasionally, some space pirates revisited Qinghai, but they quickly returned to the universe after realizing just how many powerful beings resided there.
The reason these two were on the moon was due to a persistent rumor—one claiming that a powerful weapon was hidden here. A weapon capable of bestowing unimaginable strength.
More than a decade ago, there was even a strange explosion on the moon. While no one in Qinghai seemed to notice, the space pirates did. Many believed it signaled the weapon’s awakening, so pirate crews came one after another.
But years passed, and no such weapon was found. Though some ancient ruins were uncovered, none of them seemed valuable, and most of the space pirates eventually gave up and left.
Only these two remained, blasting holes in the moon in
Slash.
Two screams rang out—and were instantly silenced.
Blood sprayed across the silver dust of the moon’s surface. The two space pirates lay dead.
Mio then calmly gave his next command. "Get ready. Asuka, Bai Feng, Lilith, and Mashi will stay behind to guard the Ark. The rest of you—come with me to investigate the ruins."
The ruins were far apart—one of them so distant it might take a long trek to reach.
But Mio had a feeling.
If he could find the King...
Then maybe, just maybe—
He would finally uncover the truth about what happened eight hundred years ago.
And whether Joy Boy had laid a trap...
A trap still waiting to be triggered.
