Reawakening: SSS-Rank Villain’s POV

Moreover, after obtaining the two natural abilities. The Earth swim and the Night Vision, his body felt incredibly bloated and he speculated that his genetic structure or his genetic map would definitely break down from over load of he tried to gain another ability.

He wasn't a Ranker yet but because his body and vitality was almost three times stronger than a regular Ranker, he was able to hold two genetic ability without breaking down.

Otherwise, he would have already died from absorbing the Earth Swim ability which took up almost 70% genetic space and the night vision took up only 20%.

"Squeak!"

Suddenly, his ears perked up as he heard the sound of the door leading down to the basement squeaked open and then closing back.

It could be the wind but during his experiences,Lucian had learnt to be incredibly cautious. With the fact that he was exceptionally badly injured as well.

Cautiously, Lucian stood up gently without making any sound and leaned against the wall at a specific blindspot.

His back muscles vibrated softly and his body sank more than halfwsy into the sandly wall noiselessly.

His eyes stared fixatedly at the passage which anyone must pass through to get through.

In a few seconds, a man cloaked in a tight jumper suit which also covered his face walked in.

Lucian was a bit stunned and also puzzled but his breathing grew softer and softer in order not to attract the others attention. It was almost as if he wasn't breathing at all.

The person scanned through the entire room, before his eyes landed direct on Lucian who was directly imedded in a wall.

Lucian felt his heart skip a beat and his expression twisted slightly.

Suddenly, he heard the familiar voice of a middle aged man say.

"Alright, I don't have time to play hide and seek. I risked coming here to give you this." The person reached for his waist pocket and withdraw two syringes from there, after which he threw them down to the floor.

His eyes still on Lucian as though he too had night vision and could directly see through the wall and the darkness.

"I allowed the old man to attack you once to test your capability. And surprisingly, you passed greatly. Which exceeded my expectations. Although I'm still slightly reluctant to accept you as my disciple due to your character." his voice grew dark at this moment and one could tell he was exceptionally embarrassed and furious.

"Need to leave here quickly to minimise my chances of getting caught." the person then pointed at the floor.

"Those are some high quality Insta-Heal serum. Just inject it directly to your blood stream, it would get rid of your injuries." the person turned around without hesitation.amd left.

Lucian was in a bit of a daze and then, he abruptly snapped out of it and yelled.

"Old bastard! I should have known it was your doing!" the sand holding his body instantly disintegrated into dust. He had just remembered where he heard the voice from, it was Mr White.

The middle aged man that had just reached the entrance shuddered suddenly. One could tell it was from anger. But in order to hide his identity, he needed to refrain from leaving any clues even if the investigators knew he was the one, they wouldn't have enough evidence.

He breathed in deeply and was about to really leave when he heard Lucian scoff and muttered "Who wants to be the disciple of an old bastard who thinks he is still young."

The middle aged man face turned sour immediately and then his expression changed into a sinister one. As he seem to have remembered something.

His sinister smile widened and then, he abruptly vanished into the darkness.

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

With its really extraordinarily high surface tension, refusing to stick to the glass tubes, Lucian 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, Lucian 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, Lucian 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.
