Chapter 10: Meeting with the Base Head

"To think, I, Alex Mercer, will fall to a kid. But for some strange reasons I'm very happy. You have limitless potential boy, I'll have died happily if I get to train you personally but unfortunately, you'll be dying too and come meet me in hell soon." The man said with a sinister smile as he slowly fell down on the ground with a thud, dead. New novel chapters are published on

Zeras looked strangely at the corpse beneath his feet wondering why the man said he'll also be dying soon, but he ignored it as he slowly moved outside the place.

Swiping the card on the door, it immediately opened making fresh air assault his nose, something he very much appreciated compared to the blood filled air in the place.

Now, only one final thing remained and that is to find a way to communicate with the outside world.

He needed to call the EIA[Earth Intergalactic Association], they are the only one that can get him out of this shit.

All he needed was a phone and the only place to get that was where the Base Head stays.

Zeras immediately moved towards the off-limits area where the Base Head was supposed to be located.

Arriving before the golden coloured gate, he swiped the card on the gate as it slowly opened up. He immediately entered into it in the next second as he marvelled at the beauty of the place.

This was the most beautiful room Zeras had ever seen in his life as he stood there stupified a little.

Never had he seen the such glittering blue tiles before, the exquisite paintings, the shimmering gems lining the ceiling releasing gentle waves of light, the orphanage couldn't compare to 1% of this place beauty.

His gaze immediately became focused in the next second as he concentrated on what he came here to do.

He immediately began searching everywhere but even after five minutes he didn't find anything at all.

"Looking for this?" A voice said to Zeras as he immediately narrowed his eyes and turned back towards the direction with his fastest speed, but he still didn't see anything.

A shocked expression appeared on Zeras's face as he immediately snapped his neck upwards and there it is.

He noticed the word"awakened" in the system's description and knew this fight wouldn't be a walk in the park.

Actually, it might be his toughest fight yet. A fight with an awakened.

"Yo've been nothing but a trash from an orphanage and sold out to us to act as a lab rat. I believe this should have given you an idea of what mattered most in this world. And that is strength.

Only with powerful enough strength will you be able to seek your revenge against the Celestria family. And not just any strength, a truly powerful strength as you'll later learn the Celestria families power are no joke.

So I have an offer for you, boy." The man said with a smile.

Zeras's hand inching towards his pocket slowed down a little but they weren't moving back.

"If you want strength, then why don't you join us. Join the Mutant Organization. Even this base is only an unimportant side branch of the real organization. The power of the organization is beyond your understanding.

I know you had talent seeing how easily you got out and almost destroyed the base. Your act is more than enough to make the base support you and your grade of gene won't even matter. You only need to be able to withstand the serum and you will mutate into becoming more powerful. Then you can easily take your revenge on the Celestria family.

What do you think?" The man said, this time with a serious expression. It seems he really was intent on recruiting Zeras but unknowing to Zeras, he wasn't interested. The only reason he created such an offer was because Zeras took the serum he had been asked to test the effect off and still alive, unlike others.

Zeras was the only first successful experimental subject of the serum and was even wondering whether it was the serum that improved his strength.

He'll only need to submit Zeras to the Main base and he'll finally be able to fuse with his first genetic serum, the reward for the successful testing.

Zeras thought about it as his hands slowly retreated from his gun with a struggling expression on his face.

Seeing this, the Base Head slowly rested his hands on the back of his head as if giving him space to think about it when his eyes widened in shock in the next second.

Zeras's retreating hand immediately reached for the gun when he saw the man relax his guard as he immediately shot forward thrice.

"Vroom, Vroom, Vroom..."

The Base Head though shocked was still able to react as his body moved with deadly precision immediately disappearing from where he was standing and taking cover.

"I believe you have chosen your answer, kid. And it's one you'll be regretting real soon..."
