Information to Mastery: Points Store System Chapter 287: A Ruse?

Michael took the auto‑jet and set the silver tip to Jas’s arm. The vial locked into the slot and with one firm press, there was a ’tick’ sound.

The jet fired, and the gray dose shot through the thin tip into the vein. The fluid slipped into the blood at once as the nano swarm lost from sight the mont it went in.

When Michael pulled the injector away, the mark left on Jas’s skin was no more than a small red dot.

Jas flinched at the sharp tick, a quick pulse of heat crawling up his arm. As Michael retreated, the red dot on Jas’ arm faded, but a strange weight settled in his chest, like a shadow pressing against his thoughts.

This sensation did not last long though, as just a little while later, it completely disappeared.

Jas tried to feel his body, but he felt that nothing had changed. It was as if the liquid that had just been injected into his body had not caused him any changes.

He felt extrely nervous, not sure what he was supposed to expect. But, he understood, from what Michael had told him before, this was sothing that was supposed to make sure that he would not betray him?

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, several thoughts regarding going against Michael appeared in his mind. But, it seed that nothing happened?

Could it be that this liquid that Michael had injected him was just a trick being used by Michael? Was it sothing that Michael was trying to use in order to intimidate him?

But before doing anything, he rembered clearly what Michael had told him. That was, as long as he tried to betray Michael, he would end up being struck by pain.

It would only be during the ti that he persisted, insisting on betraying Michael, that he would end up dying?

So, he assud, since he was currently not feeling any pain, there was no possibility of him dying suddenly co right?

Therefore, while being cautious to stop at any mont, he begin thinking of betraying Michael. He thought about informing the death shadow about what had happened here, or even informing the governnt that Michael was a mutant.

But, despite him thinking of so many ways that he could betray Michael, including planning how to attack him right now, he did not feel any pain.

And at this mont, he fell to completely ecstatic. So, all of this was just a ruse, but Michael had never anticipated that it would fail?

Despite feeling excited, he did not dare to show anything on his face. He did not even try to think about attacking Michael at this mont.

From the previous try, it was clear that Michael’s skin was kind of special. Maybe that was an ability that he had gotten after he took the mutation serum?

Anyway, it was clear, his strongest attack, the pressure bullet, it was completely useless against Michael. So, there was no need for him to court death, especially in the presence of that masked guy.

Therefore, when he felt that there was nothing changing, and he had already attempted to see how that liquid was going to stop him from betraying Michael, he looked at Michael and asked, "C-can I leave now?"

Jas was afraid that Michael would ask him to stay here. If he continued staying here and Michael realized that he had seen through his trick, what would happen next? Would he not die?

"You can leave. But, make sure that when I contact you, you do as you are instructed. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Michael responded as he sat back down on the couch.

Jas was so thrilled that he almost should how excited he was on his face. Still, he was able to control his emotions, and quickly rushed out of the villa, as if he was being chased away.

With Jas leaving, Michael looked at Bob, who was still on the ground, in pain. With one of his kneecaps broken it was obviously impossible for him to leave, unless soone supported him.

That was especially at the mont, as the pain was still there, leaving Bob continuously growing on the floor.

Of course, while the guy had been in pain, he had still heard quite a bit of what was going on here. He also understood that Michael was a mutant, which was completely unexpected to him.

But more than that, it seed that he had subdued that assassin? Is that really was the case, then this was terrifying. No matter what, he thought, as soon as he got out of here, he would have to get this information out.

One of the reasons why he wanted to spread this information was because he hated Michael. Yes, he ca here, with the intention of forcing him to leave this country.

In the end, he was crippled, which was sothing that Bob had never anticipated would happen to him. So, he thought, if there was a chance for him to ever take revenge, he would not hesitate.

But for now, with everything against him, he had no other choice but to struggle enduring the pain first. And later on, he would leave, before making plans on what to do next.

By now, he already understood that the Santos family would not be able to deal with Michael. With him being a mutant, unless they sent several mutants at the sa ti, it would be impossible to deal with him.

And, there was no guarantee that there were just two mutants, Michael and this must guy. What if there were others? At least, until this mont, he did not understand how Michael was able to beco a mutant.

If there was a force that was supporting him from behind, it was clear that there might be several mutants. And if that force was at an international level, then the Santos family could easily be destroyed.

While Bob was already thinking about all that, Michael, who had just sat down, was thinking about sothing else.

That was, how to deal with this guy. The issue regarding him being a mutant and so on, he did not want it to be exposed. If it did, it could cause so problems for him.

The easiest solution right now was to kill Bob. That way, with Vincent taking charge, everything could be easily cleared out.

But at the mont, he was thinking about tornting Newton. If Bob suddenly went back and inford him that, despite sending a mutant over, they had failed to deal with Michael, would that guy not get worried?

At the mont, Michael was thinking about psychologically tornting Newton. And when he went to the capital, that would be the ti for him to deal with that guy.

At least, if Newton lived in fear, always afraid that Michael would co on the following day to settle accounts with him, it would at least allow Michael to be able to take revenge for all the psychological torture that he had experienced ever since his parents died.

And as he was thinking about this, he accessed the system store, and made a purchase.

Just like with the AI implant, what he had just bought from the system store ca in a while with an auto-jet injector.

Inside a glass vial, there was a liquid that was golden in color, though it almost looked as though it was in a gaseous state.

Through the description available in the system store, Michael understood that this liquid could be used to delete mories related to sothing or soone.

Just like with the AI implant, the instructions was needed to be included in the injector, before the liquid in the vial was used.

Through Onyx, Michael was able to give the instructions that he wanted, which were directly integrated into the system of the injector.

Imdiately after, Michael gave the clone the injector, and Bob, who was lying on the ground, was terrified when he saw the clone approaching with an injector.

He was not sure what was painting with in that injector, but he felt that it was nothing good. So, he tried to struggle, only for him to be struck once again, and forced into obedience.

Imdiately after, the clone injected the liquid into Bob. Bob felt a slight headache, but it vanished in the next mont.

And just as he was trying to understand what was happening, he suddenly passed out.

"Find a way of having him a sent back to the Santos family." Michael said to the clone.

At the mont, Bob had already lost all the mories of what had really happened here. All that he could rember was that he was coming, and they had arrived outside the villa.

As for what had happened as soon as he entered the villa, he could not rember anything.

This type of thod was what Michael was previously thinking about using on Marion. But in the end, he decided against it, upon realizing the consequences of using this thod.

That was, due to the sudden gap of mories, it would openly cause trendous headaches to the person. At first, the headaches would be slight, but as ti went on, they would get much more painful.

It would not be impossible for soone to lose their minds from the pain, which was the fate that Michael did not want Marion to face.

As for Bob, this guy was involved in the death of his parents in one way or the other. So, this kind of punishnt, he deserved it.

So, Michael did not feel any ntal pressure from what he had done. Instead, he just decided to continue relaxing, while waiting for information coming from the training camp of NEXUS.
