Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Chapter 90 - Miracle Pill

Zeus didn't reply to Emma for a couple of seconds before his monotone voice came from the ceiling.

[[Master, can I know why?]]

"Nothing much. We just need to make sure those beasts never came back." Emma answered with a stiff smile. 'I also don't why.'

[[Sir, you are yet to recover from the injury. Any movement will be detrimental to your health. I suggest we wait for your recovery.]] 

>>Oh… What a cute AI. 

'So, you finally resurface.'

>>I've told you several times that I'm with you always. But I can only talk when needed. 

Sighed.

'What should I do. I can't complete the mission with this body of mine.'

>>Then, do something about it.

'What can---' Emma paused and rolled his eyes. 'Can the pill heal my injury?'

>>You never can tell.

Emma's eyes brightened when he heard Lily's vague answer. 'Yes, the system will not give me such dangerous with my condition.'

'System, I want the pill.'

Swiss!

At once, a dark red pill appeared in Emma's hands, while the fragrance from the pill was already revitalizing 'Wow! I've never seen such a potent drug before.' Without further ado, Emma swallowed the pill. Meanwhile, Zeus watched Emma's reaction, not knowing how to process what had just happened.

[[Master, what are you doing. There is nothing in your hand. Are you alright?]]

"Don't worry about me. I'm perfectly fine." Emma could feel the soothing sensation throughout his body. The moment he swallowed the pill, it instantly dissolved in his mouth, traveling to every part of his body like magic. After a few seconds, Emma felt all the pores on his body open, while he felt an itch from his injury. A minute later, sweats dripped from his forehead while gnashing his teeth.   

If anyone sees what was happening under the cover of Emma's POP. It would stupefy them and make them question their eyesight. Every damaged tissue was growing at a naked speed. A slight crack came from his chest, breaking bones straighten and reattaching back to their position. 

Emma's body reconstruction took a painstaking 10 minutes. Emma could feel and hear all the changes in his body. After it completed the reconstruction, he took a deep breath and find out his breathing was smoother than before.  He swings his left arm and found no problem, and besides, his body reflex had increased than its muscle's previous reaction.

"Wow, this pill is a miraculous pill." He whispered. 'I wondered when I will be able to create such a pill.' 

>>What miracle pill. Frog at the bottom of the well. Lily snickered.

'Thank you. But I know one day, I will climb out of the well.'

>>It is good that you know that you're frog at the bottom of the well. So, work hard. You still have a long way to create such a pill.

'Did she read my mind?' Emma raised his brow. 'It impossible. If she can read my mind, I've would know all this time.' He dismissed the thought, shaking his head.

Emma flexed his muscles and found no pain or what nut. Noticing he was back to his peak form. He detaches all the cords injected into his body and gets out of the bed.

Watching all this, Zeus didn't bother to talk his master out of it but chose to be the bystander. Standing on feet, Emma stretched his body and checked every part of his body, not sure how that pill heal his injuries in a matter of minutes.

[[Master, the Knights have assembled and waiting for you.]]

"Ok. What about the beasts?"

[[Mr. Arce and Miss Jimena had already begun comprehensive research on the beast. I divided the Med into groups. Arce is the head team of researching 1-star Kpriv while Jimena is the head team of ordinary Kpriv.]]

"You told to them suspend their gene research, for now, right?" 

[[Yes. I prioritized them base on their usefulness to the organization. Did I make a mistake?]]

"No" Emma shook his head. "That's the best choice. Well done."

[[Thank you.]]

"Get me my suit, a lot of explosives and a lot of surviving kit. We are exploring the Kpriv nest."

[[Sir, I've prepared your suit. But may I ask why would you need to explore the Kpriv nest.]]

"Because if we don't. We may face the horde of Kpriv. And by then we have to escape from Vulture."

[[I understand. But the probability of you returning from this mission is 1%. I propose we wait for the research team to find a solution on how to kill the beast efficiently. Then the danger would be reduced.]]

"How long will that be?"

[[…Can't say.]]

"Then we can't wait. Every second will wait is like we're sitting on a ticking bomb. And I won't wait for the bomb to explode before I destroy it…. when I still can" 

[[I understand]]

"You have the coordinate of the spatial crack, right?"

[[Yes. Currently, I assign a UAV to monitor the coordinate. I can detect the spatial interference is still active.]]

"What of the five guards?"

[[They all survive. But I assigned them to monitor the battlefield for any anomalies.]]

"Good." Emma left the med bay and entered another room. After a few minutes, Emma emerges from the room in his signature blue suit and helmet.

Meanwhile, in another part of the building. Inside an auditorium, a group of 80 people assembled while they all have different expressions on their faces. Sparely did they communicate with each other, every one of them was lost in his or her thought. 

Creak!

A footstep brings the people back from their thoughts. They look up and saw the suit they couldn't forget. At once, the knights stood up at once and salute. Seeing this, Emma nodded. "At ease." He stopped a couple of feet from them. "Sit down."

The Knights sat while their gaze fixed on their mysterious man, their leader. Though they have many conflicting questions. But as a soldier, they knew when to shoot or not. Like reading their mind. "I know most of you have questions that are eating you up. You just have to relax, you will understand everything soon.." He said confidently.
