Chapter 572 Berserk Booster Serum
Of course, Jack did not know about what Sebastian had done. But even if he came to know about that, he was not going to care much about it. In any case, it was not as if the people from Derek's family were not going to know about the fact that he was the one who was involved in the killing of the two, Derek and his guardian.
At the end of the day, Jack had not even tried to hide the fact that he had killed the two of them. And to say the truth, although he really did not want trouble, it was not as if he was the one who went ahead and looked for them.
Instead, it was Derek who came out of the stronghold domain, to the normal world, just to look for Celine. And after that, he began causing trouble for the two of them. Then, targeted Celine, something that was completely above the limit that he could tolerate.
Right now, what Jack was focusing on was the resources that he was receiving. After the information about the communication device was revealed, the majority of the organizations within the stronghold all wanted the communication devices.
But nevertheless, all of them could not help but feel that Jack was trying to exploit them. After all, instead of star coins, this guy was actually asking for resources from them.
They could not help but wonder if the resources that he had gained from the Panthers organization together with the Force organization were not actually enough for him.
Nevertheless, there was always a person that was decisive when it came to some matters. And of course, that was none other than Phoebe.
She had already been paying much attention to Jack recently, and she realized that Sylvia was paying several visits to him. She was quite curious about him, and until now, although the relationship between the two of them was kind of tense, at least it was not to the level where the two of them were enemies.
So, the moment that Jack revealed the information about the communication device, other than the fact that she herself was actually interested in the communication device, Phoebe wanted to use this chance in order to interact with Jack and know just what kind of person he was.
So, although she felt that what Jack was asking from them was kind of a high price, but nevertheless, she decided to pay it nevertheless. At the end of the day, perhaps they might actually come to an agreement, and she might end up gaining something from it.
After making the decision, she obviously went ahead and met up with Jack. As for Jack, he was not surprised by the presence of a person like Phoebe. In any case, something that he had produced, the communication device, it was definitely not something that could be found inside a small stronghold like this one.
Of course, Jack had not just created a communication device and left it at that. Instead, he had gone ahead and added the function of the voice call, and other things like an ordinary phone would possess. So, the function of the communication device was not just communicating, but instead, it could actually go online.
"So, what are you going to offer that is capable of improving the strength of a person? It has to be something that has an effect on a superhuman, no matter how small." Jack asked as he looked at Phoebe who was seated in front of him.
Currently, the two of them were inside the workshop that Jack possessed, inside the building that they had purchased ever since they came into this stronghold.n(-0vElb1n
Phoebe had been observing Jack all along. Initially, she had only been viewing him in the images and videos that she was sent during the time she was training. But right now, looking at him, she could not help but be amazed by him.
Of course, as expected, after reaching the superhuman level, the appearance of a person would be boosted. Jack was already handsome before even reaching the superhuman level. And for that reason, his appearance had also been boosted after reaching the 5th stage of the superhuman level.
So to say the truth, he was currently considered as a lady killer. But, no matter how people viewed him, Jack really didn't care much about their opinions. To him, he already had a girlfriend, and not just any girlfriend, but a fiancee that he was supposed to marry later on.
After hearing Jack's question, Phoebe finally came back to her senses and said, "I'm going to give you something that I'm using to train, the only resource that we have inside of our organization. It is capable of affecting a superhuman, even one at the third stage of the superhuman level."
Jack looked at Phoebe with his brows raised.
When Phoebe saw the expression that was on Jack's face, of course she understood what that expression meant.
"I know what you are thinking. That if I actually possess something that is capable of affecting a superhuman at the third stage of the superhuman level, why is it that I'm still at the first stage of the superhuman level?" Phoebe stated without waiting for Jack to say anything.
"That is exactly the question that I'm having right now." Jack did not deny at all. Instead, he just looked at Phoebe as he stated those words honestly.
"The real reason behind that is due to the fact that once that serum is taken, the effects are going to be quite big. It will make a person to go unconscious for more than one day.
As for how long a person is really going to be unconscious, I'm not sure because it is something that depends on the willpower of the person who has taken the serum." Phoebe responded honestly.
Just like how Jack was currently, Phoebe was also a straightforward person. So, instead of hiding information about the serum, she went ahead and revealed it.
Reaching into her jacket pocket, she took out a small glass bottle. It possessed a small pale blue liquid inside it. After playing with it in her hand for a moment, she handed it over to Jack.
Jack took over the small bottle. He could see that this bottle that was containing this liquid was not normal. And that was actually the exact reason why this serum was not being protected inside a special box that was going to make sure that the effects of the serum were not affected.
After observing it for a while, Jack immediately recognized it. At the end of the day, he had received a lot of information about the stronghold domain, together with the resources and other things present within it.
"Berserk booster serum." Jack stated after a moment of observing the small liquid that was present within the small glass bottle.
Phoebe was a little surprised after Jack noticed what that serum was. To say the truth, she had not expected that Jack was going to recognize it. After all, this was something that was quite rare even in the big strongholds.
In fact, it was not that it was actually rare, but it was just that the majority of the people never liked using something like this. Although it was actually capable of boosting someone's strength, but the side effects of the serum were quite disastrous.
"Other than being unconscious for an indefinite time, the person that is going to take this serum is definitely going to experience a lot of pain." Jack stated as he placed the small bottle on top of the table that was in between the two of them.
"That amount of pain is something that I can handle. Don't tell me that someone like you, who is considered a man, cannot actually handle that amount of pain." Phoebe stated with her brows arched. At the corner of her lips, Jack could see that there was a smirk.
"That is your opinion." Jack responded. After that, he looked at Phoebe and said, "You already know about the side effects of taking this thing. So, why do you believe that I'll give you the communication device with just this one?"
Phoebe was not impressed by the reaction that Jack was having. That nonchalant expression on his face that stated that he did not really care about the provocation that she had just sent over made her a little bit irritated. But at the same time, she was much more curious about this Jack.
At the end of the day, not only was he younger than she was, but he was surprisingly stronger than she was. That was something that she already knew after the visit that she had paid to Sylvia.
"Are you trying to tell me that this is not enough for the communication device? The only thing that comes with the communication device that we cannot do is only the fact that there is the video.
We can actually talk to each other while observing each other. But other than that, there are other devices that are capable of functioning just as that communication device of yours can." Phoebe stated bluntly.
"I'm not going to discuss to you about the benefits of the communication device that I have created. Although it is just called a communication device, the functions that it possesses are way above the communication device.
As for the other functions, they are integrated into one item, unlike what you are trying to say, where you are actually going to be required to use several different equipment and items in order to be able to complete everything that you could have completed with a single item." Jack waved his hand as a responded.
"Whatever. So, I'm going to add another thing. This is only capable of affecting people that are at the first stage of the superhuman level. And, let me tell you something, if you don't agree to this, then we can just give up on this matter." Phoebe stated as she took out a small box.
After opening it, inside of the box, there was a small glass bottle that possessed a small cartridge that was containing a yellow liquid.
