Chapter 193 - Jason

What the middle aged man refused to show was his satisfaction in accepting David. He was absolutely sure that that disrespectful disciple of his had learnt the ability night vision, despite the fact that he wasn't a Phaser yet.

And also that ability that allowed him to integrate into the wall, he couldn't help but shake his head in amazement.

Opening the basement door, David looked to see that the person had left already his expression, unpleasant. When the old professor from an unknown organisation had attacked him, he had been wondering why the security and defence system hadn't activated. 'So it was because that old guy deactivated it.'

He wasn't going to be nice just because the person had accepted him as a disciple. The fact that he was heavily injured had already angered him enough to want to curse over and over again.

After a minute of muttering to himself, David finally decided to go back into the basement. He needed to be sure if what the old man said about the Insta-Heal serum was true.

He hurried back down the basement and he saw two glass syringes lying directly on the dirty floor.

Grabbing the two syringe, David gazed intently at one of them.

The liquid inside the glass syringe was a clear orange colour with a tinge of red deep within.

The fluid had the same characteristics as Mercury since it was way heavier than David had expected it to be.

With its really extraordinarily high surface tension, refusing to stick to the glass tubes, David was finally relieved he wasn't being tricked or poisoned, it was genuine.

He popped opened a slot at the thighs of his combat suit and inserted one of the syringe inside. Leaving only one outside.

Without the slightest bit of hesitation, David was about to stab the liquid into his thighs when he heard another creaking sound coming from the entrance.

Thinking it was the old man, David furiously shouted "You still dare to come, you old thing?"

Jason was stunned and his eyes appeared really glazed. When he came to, he saw himself in front of a collapsed building but he before was an oval door leading to some kind of basement.

He wasn't sure how he got here himself. Although he wasn't very a smart, he wasn't muddle headed either.

He had gained nothing despite the fact that he was the strongest amongst the five of them who had arrived together at the site of the old man's corpse.

At first, he and the three others had been deceived by that ordinary looking guy, making him very furious. But he wasn't very smart enough to track down where the body had landed and was a bit too late to realise that the others had jumped into the hole and had taken the Sky walker from the old man an fled.

Although he was very strong, he had only learnt a strengthening type Exercising Method and a few strength based techniques.

He didn't learn any motion technique and his speed was ordinary. Therefore, he could only watch as the three people left him in the dust in pursuit of themselves.

He had been thoroughly dejected and had wanted to rush back into the safe zone he had dropped down at when he came but he somehow found himself here.

He had followed the arrow his AI had projected to him, which lead him here. But he looked around and couldn't find a single thing remotely close to a Safe zone.

"Uhm Claire, Are you sure you aren't mistaken?" Jason spoke up after a while.

"Pardon me Jason. I think something has messed with my navigation system. It could be some sort of interference in the atmosphere due to the Radiation." A robotic female voice spoke out after a while and one could tell the voice wasn't happy with the situation either.

"Uhn? Okay, how do you fix it then?" Jason scratch his head in frustration as he questioned.

"I need to reset the functionality system and network or go straight to rebooting myself. It would take a while."

"Alright then. How much time would you take though?" Jason asked curiously.

"About 10 minutes. Won't take long." Claire replied.

"Okay, that should be enough time for me to explore this basement." Jason clapped happily

"The illumination from the imprint can still function right?" Jason asked after some thought.

"Sure, it isn't a core function of the system anyway." Claire replied leisurely and she activated the hologram, lightning up the area softly.

Getting the confirmation from Claire Jason grabbed at the handle of the door leading to the basement. It made a slight creaking sound

But as soon as he grabbed open the door, a furious voice of a young man sounded out from within the basement. "You still dare to come, you old thing?"

Jason shivered in fear and he instantly freaked out, his hand unceremoniously dropped the door he had been holding open.

He had been scared out of his wits since he hadn't expected anyone to be down the basement.

Soon, he regained his senses and then he frowned when he heard the voice. His gaze then darkened and he seem to remember something.

He angrily opened the door and rushed into the basement. In just less than 30 seconds, he had reached the end of the hallway.

He scanned through the entire room but strangely enough, he didn't see a single soul inside even when he had searched every where.

"Claire, increase the intensity of the illumination." Jason commanded, unlike his true self.

"Sure." She responded immediately but after a while of fruitless searching, Jason was thoroughly startled that he couldn't find anyone there even after his meticulous searching.

His body shivered indiscriminately and his eyes rapidly twitched from fear

"Claire, I heard a voice down here, you also heard it right?" Jason asked hesitantly. He didn't want to believe ghosts were real

"Yes, and through my scan, the voice is 99.9% similar to the person that had tricked you a few minutes ago. I guess the person is using some method to hide here.." Claire replied casually and she seem to have hit the nail in the head.
