Chapter 8 Mr. Toward Rev's
Xaver took quite a long time to research. He still had to pay attention to whether the chemical elements in this world were the same as the chemical elements in his world. And again his blood capsule was almost half a bottle already empty.
Citing research interests, Xaver asked for a sample of the blood of the mermaids who were contaminated and who were not. There was actually also personal interest, thinking about the taste of blood of different species, getting him excited. An old mermaid knocks on a special lab door made for a Xaver.
Xaver lazily swam to open the door. "Mr Xaver, someone wants to see you."
"All right, I'll be there."
Xaver moved his tail to swim towards the waiting room. There was a man dressed in military typical of the inhabitants of Atlantis. His wrinkled forehead made Xaver know that the mermaid was worried.
"What's up, Mr Toward?" Asked Xaver while yawning.
Mr. Toward spoke in an agitated tone. "About what percentage of vaccine research progress? I began to worry, the two-legged creature began to attack and hunt us down. But our mermaid resources are starting to decline."
Xaver is almost done with the vaccine. If Xaver works hard, it will be finished in 2 days. But Xaver was exhausted and he needed rest. "Actually the research progress has reached Eighty-three percent. With a little guidance from me, I'm sure those professors can finish it quickly."
"How fast?"
"At the earliest two days" Xaver said as he yawned.
The face of the military-clothed man still looked worried and depressed. "What's making you depressed, old man?"
"The kingdom's fighting strength was drastically reduced due to the outbreak, and strange objects caused the outbreak continued to appear. I'm afraid our kingdom of Atlantis can't last two days." Said the old man in a frustrated tone.
Xaver thought of a pretty good idea. "Hm... I can help you guys actually. In exchange you have to help me collect that human blood. I'll tell the professors what to do."
The military-clothed old man had heard of Xaver's unique abilities. So he was quite satisfied with Xaver's help. "Great! Well now I'm going to tell the King this news, you tell me what to do with the old professors"
Xaver nodded. He immediately said a lot of things needed to be done to continue research on the outbreak vaccine, his assistant said. The previous head of the lab. The head of the Lab nodded his head and began to command the members of the Lab. While Xaver began taking care of the sample of mermaid blood in the Lab in particular.
He tried to make it into a blood capsule. But even if it works it is not always pure blood. Although the mermaid's blood was thick, but the blood concentration in his blood capsule was never one hundred percent pure blood. There must be sea water in it.
At least the taste of blood mixed with sea water was slightly cold and fresh. Like drinking cold juice, Xaver thought. When he thought of human blood, Xaver suddenly became thirsty. How does the taste of human blood in this world? It was a question that kept spinning in Xaver's head.
The next day arrived, Mr. Toward had been waiting for him at the door of the Lab since morning. Xaver almost hit him in surprise. "The king approved our proposal, our troops are also ready to leave. Is Mr Xaver ready?"
"I'm definitely ready. Before that what was the most terrifying creature in this ocean?"
Mr. Toward looked at Xaver with eyes filled with confusion. "For what?"
"As you know Mr. Toward, my unique ability is to mimic any shape almost like the original. So show me the image of the most powerful and feared creature in Atlantis. With that form we will fight"
Mr. Toward thought for a moment. "There, my Grandma once told me about the Seven Headed Sea Dragon. Legend has it that the Seven Headed Sea Dragon was the King of the vast Ocean before Atlantis sank. It's creepy, and it eats everything. Grandma says she'll only wake up once every 100,000,000 years"
Xaver thought, Head Seven made him remember the Hydra. Xaver imagines the Hydra in his memory to mimic its shape. Lord Toward watched the young mermaid transform into the legendary Seven Headed Sea Dragon.
"Tu.mr.. Xaver?"
"It's me, who do you expect, old man"
His voice was not similar to Xaver. Perhaps because of his seven heads, his voice echoed in the ocean. Mr. Toward is currently very excited. Xaver is the key to victory in this two-race war.
"Go back to your original form, Mr. Xaver. I have to explain this to my troops first"
Fortunately, Xaver's specialty Lab is more isolated than the general Lab. So that no one saw the appearance of the legendary Seven Headed Sea Dragon, other than Lord Toward of course.
Xaver returns to mermaid form. Then swim following Mr. Toward. Mr. Toward and Xaver pass through the ocean currents to speed up the journey. They continued to swim almost away from the civilization of Atlantis. With a fairly lower depth compared to Atlantis, the Military Barracks and the Mermaid clan training arena were seen.
The guards let Mr. Toward in after a few greetings, followed by Xaver behind him. Xaver looked at the Mermaids who were training, whether it was training their abilities or training their physiques, they remained diligent in training. The faces of the soldiers seemed to tell Xaver that their determination was as big as their hard work.
It didn't take long, Mr. Toward immediately stood in front of all the Mermaids, he conveyed his idea and help from Xaver. Some of the soldiers who were practicing saw Xaver. Some commented to the friend next to him. Commenting on how pale and thin the young man named Xaver was. The visual impact that Xaver gave made the Soldiers in the barracks uncertain. Although Xaver was actually not too thin, but for the Xaver Soldiers it was still very thin.
In the opinion of the Soldiers, the thin person had no strength in terms of a big fight like a war. Xaver raised his palm to stop Mr. Toward speaking. Xaver saw the uncertainty in the eyes of those burly soldiers.
Xaver felt he had to win the hearts of these soldiers in order for them to help Xaver. If only Xaver's condition were to be fit today, perhaps he could easily hypnotize all of the Army's merfolk. But now Xaver's condition is not as good as usual.
"I know you're not sure about me. Before I show you my special abilities, I want you to see how powerful I am, Xaver van Zeander!"
The remark made some of the burly Soldiers feel challenged. Xaver whose real face was a Vampire felt himself humiliated with that unconvincing look. Vampires are the cold-blooded Army in his world. Besides being strong, Vampires are also smart and charismatic. Vampires are the most ideal Genes among supernatural beings or Monsters.
Mr. Toward saw determination and fighting spirit in Xaver's eyes. He also allowed Xaver and the Soldiers to duel.
"All right, I'll let you duel. But just like Mr. Xaver said, we will only use Physical strength. Please for those of you who want to duel with Mr. Xaver first, in the arena of battle"
Xaver looked at the burly Soldiers with a condescending look. A soldier who felt hooked, he was a mermaid whose body was the largest in the line. Xaver only grinned with a cold look in his eyes.
"The argo? Yeah all right, let's go to the Arena." Mr. Toward led the Soldiers and Xaver into the Arena.
Arriving at the Arena that resembled a boxing Ring, Xaver and a Mermaid named Argo entered the Arena. Mr. Toward beside the guardrail, he arranged the Arena arrangements so that Xaver and Argo could not use their respective special abilities. Fearing that his disguise was uncovered, Xaver covered his entire body with energy from EAC-Drime.
After the bell rang, Argo began to whip his tail towards Xaver. He raised his big fist towards Xaver's face. Just a few seconds before the fist hit Xaver's face, Red Xaver's eyes flickered and at high speed Xaver disappeared. Then it appears behind Argo. Xaver's Black Tail is smashed into Argo's body and Argo is thrown out of the Ring.
The entire Arena was suddenly silent, including Mr. Toward. That speed, maybe only Mermaids with Flow abilities had it. And again what makes the Army flabbergasted is, Argo's condition is like having fought with kraken. A painful condition in which the bone rotates in the opposite direction. And Argo is the fighter with the most powerful physical strength among the Army.
"I estimate it will take at least half a year for Argo to heal." Xaver's sentence draws everyone to reality.
Seeing Argo's condition, Mr. Toward cleared his throat and asked some of the Soldiers to drive Argo to the hospital. "As you can see, the idea of a duel will only get you into the hospital. So let's start getting ready for battle."
The soldiers nodded. Some are still not satisfied. A soldier raised his hand and asked. "Are we allowed to see Mr. Xaver's ability? "
Xaver leaps out of the Arena, as he lands he transforms his appearance into a beast of the sea. Sharks, whales, even the Kraken they feared were also shown. The few soldiers cheered happily. With Xaver's help, the war will end sooner and those jerks won't be able to hurt the Atlantean Mermaid clan again.
