Chapter 16 - Chapter 16

It did not take long for these doctors to make breakthroughs with my help. Unlike the last time I was on the specimen table, I was not under any drugs. Sedation did not work on me so all the experiments were mostly poisons, new found diseases and viruses. Mainly taking my blood after the infection for the antibodies but it still progressed their research. Dr. Smith was ecstatic to see the results but was still careful around me. The only thing I have to worry about is Dr. Forze. I have cooperated with the other doctors and they kept their word I am officially a volunteer, until they piss me off. The only reason I have to be wary of Dr. Forze is the fact that he has my current data.

With my current data they can develop a new mind controlling serum but I check their research periodically when I ask them. They even proudly volunteer to show it to me but the only one whose research I haven't seen, because I told them to keep him away, is Dr. Forze. Dr. Smith gave me the research Dr. Forze was working on but I warned Dr. Smith that although this is the research all of you may have seen him working on that doesn't mean Dr. Forze doesn't have his own motives. Dr. Smith agreed and told me that he will dig into the matter deeply. "If you need help, I will gladly kill him, you know, for the greater good." I said seriously.

"Dr. Forze has been very cooperative and I have to be honest, without his great great grandfathers research notes we would have been slower in our research." Dr. Smith said while sighing. "The only reason you were able to get his research is because I was told he was dead the first time I escaped. Too much time had passed and Dr. Forze was dead, fortunately for him, at the time I didn't think it would be right to kill his entire family just because of one person. Now I see that I was wrong." I said regretfully. "There is nothing wrong with sparing innocents" Dr. Smith said. "You say that but you do realize that the Dr. Forze of the time was not by himself. I killed those that were still alive and I spared their families. Those that were too old expected me to come, some even told me that they came to terms with it and accepted death. Even then it was considered a mercy. But the ones that came after were no better, only the doctors at the end gave me kindness as I killed them." I said. "Even with that kindness, you spared their families?" Dr. Smith said while drinking coffee. "Yes, they gave me the names and locations of the ones that ordered them. I tried to destroy as much of the research as I could but the research of Dr. Forze survived, which is what his descendant currently has and shared with you." I said. After some coffee, I left to the workshop I was promised.

I continued my own project into the armor when the doctors didn't need me. In my spare time, I had completed some of the armor. I didn't progress much because I was stuck in some places. I called upon some of the doctors to help since it was more of a biological armor. Once my armor was nearly complete, Doctor Smith called me in to his office. With a worried look on his face "Mr. Muertezo, there have been some discrepancies with some of the results we have been receiving from your samples and we don't know why" he said. "Haha, you doctors take my blood, run it through your tests and you want an explanation as to why there are discrepancies? From my samples, my cells do not change until they are introduced to foreign entities" I said.

"From the previous data and the samples we have taken that shows to be true. I also discovered that your cells also change when threatened but that is only when you are unconscious." Dr. Smith said hesitantly. "I know we have a give and take deal but to imply I am botching up your experiments is ridiculous. Since you took the time to talk to me then you know it has nothing to do with me and you want to figure out why your tests are being sabotaged, right?" I confirmed. "It's as you say, and since we have been double booking the results like you advised, we know where the discrepancies are from." Dr. Smith said nervously.

From the way Dr. Smith is shirking away and his gestures to his rapid heartbeat, the main perpetrator must be Dr. Forze. Why else would Dr. Smith bring me here? To calm me down? No. If I am guessing correctly, he wants to know what I will do. Unfortunately for Dr. Smith, the test results are none of my concern. If anything, he is setting them back, but for what purpose? "Since you know it is Dr. Forze, why include me?" I questioned. A little shaken at my question, Dr. Smith responded "Well, since it concerns him I thought you would literally go and kill him so I thought of calming you down while I told you" Dr. Smith said while wiping away sweat from his brow. "Dr. Smith, even though this matter does have my tests and it has been botched, doesn't mean it involves me. I cooperated with your tests for materials and tools, which I did. If your tests come back with odd or wrong answers then it's on your end not mine. He's hold you and your colleagues back not me. If you want advice, then confront him in a meeting with everyone present. If you are asking me to kill him, then it can be easily done." I said with a grin.

Dr. Smith shook his head quickly, his heartbeat hastened at my last suggestion. "No, Mr. Muertezo, I would never wish death upon anyone" Dr. Smith said. "Then, my question is again, why involve me?" I reiterated. After saying nothing, I believe that Dr. Smith was trying to ask me to kill Dr. Forze. I have no problem killing him but I will not interfere as much as they want me to. I will only go my way but if asked to kill a common enemy I wouldn't exactly refuse.

Since Dr. Smith couldn't bring the words to mind I left the room and walked back to my workstation to see if I can finally finish up on my armor. The armor came out better than I thought it would. I can now travel without the need of a ship. The power source of the armor is solar and kinetic energy. Of course I have a small nuclear fission reactor as a blaster energy source just in case. Most likely when Dr. Smith and his colleagues are tired of Dr. Forze and his bullshit they will try to get me involved to deal with him. When that time comes I will finally kill the bastards' family that started Project Zero.
