As Avon strode towards the big blue dot on his radar, he noticed that the dot was located in a rubble of bricks and some scraps. Avon decided to dig around and find whatever was in the rubble with could give such a large energy reading on his tech radar.
Avon started to dig around the rubble and threw large sections of it away which was easy thanks to his newly upgraded torso and right arm. Then Avon hit something hard and big, excitedly he started digging around it and unearthed a large safe. "What is this? Grandpa never mentioned anything about a safe of this size in his workshop."
Avon tried to open the safe but eventually gave up as the safe was password protected and he couldn't even pry it open with his current strength. "System, is there anyway for me to open this safe right now?"
[It is possible to open the safe with the Skill: Hacking]
Avon browsed the store for the skill and was rendered speechless. "its 5,000SP! Damm system I am broke right now." Avon complained to himself but then started to get to work by decomposing all the smaller blue dots he found thanks to his Tech Radar.
*some time later*
Avon had earned another 7,000SP and told the system to buy the skill with a heavy heart. Instantly he saw his SP decrease by 5,000 and he heard the familiar sound of the system.

Avon walked to the safe after what seemed like an eternity of 10 minutes and saw two black boxes. One was the size of a briefcase and the other was the size of a fist. He also noticed a letter and opened it.
'To Avon
Hey little guy, if you are reading this then I am probably dead or have been killed by someone because they desire something from me. The things they desired was hidden in this safe that you opened now. They would have never expected the password was your birthday. Anyway I don't have many requests from you other than just keeping the thing inside the small box safe.
------Your Grandfather."
Avon felt a lump in his throat as he read his grandpa's final words. He had always suspected that his grandpa was involved in something big, but he never imagined that it would be something like this. Avon took a deep breath and opened the black box that was the size of a briefcase.
Inside, he found a stack of files that explained everything that he had been working on for years. Avon's grandpa had been a part of a secret organization that had been trying to uncover the truth about a powerful artifact that was said to have the power to control time itself.
The organization had been working in secret for years, and Avon's grandpa had been one of their top researchers. He had spent most of his life trying to unlock the secrets of the artifact and had made some significant breakthroughs. However, his research had attracted the attention of some powerful people who wanted the artifact for themselves. Therefore, he took the artifact and all the research and escaped into this slums where he found Avon and decided to adopt him.
Then Avon looked at the smaller box and opened it, Inside he found a small ball shaped device that looked oddly like a heart. He used his Analysis Skill on the object.
