Chapter 282: Respect for The Inventor (1/2)
The night is filled with the sound of insects bugging, it filled the night with a natural feeling that should make anyone comfortable enough to sleep.
But Rex didn't sleep, it's hard for him to sleep since opening the Moon Box.
Nightmares of the night his parents got killed kept haunting him because of the vision, and it disturb Rex's sleep harshly not intending him to close his eyes for more than ten minutes.
And now, the Green Messenger is waiting for him.
The Green Messenger is leaning on the big tree beside the city hall with his all-black clothes, it's quite a weird sight since it's rare for him to go to Rex personally.
Usually, he will only send a crow with a message from him.
After realizing that the Green Messenger is waiting for him, Rex immediately jumped out from the window to greet him.
The Green Messenger didn't look at Rex as he played with something on his hand.
Rex stopped a couple of meters in front of the Green Messenger before he said, ”Is that a new trick? I have never seen that before”
Hearing this, the crow mask tilted towards Rex lightly.
Now that he got closer to the Green Messenger, Rex saw a couple of black crows on the tree and one of them is sitting on the Green Messenger's shoulder.
”You look down today, Is the woman not good?”, the Green Messenger suddenly said.
Rex was caught off guard as he looks back at Adhara who is still sleeping, he then faces the Green Messenger again and shakes his head, ”It's not that”
Without continuing the light topic, Rex then cut to the chase, ”Why are you here?”
”Did you manage to convince the UWO?”, the Green Messenger asks back.
Hearing this, Rex's expression didn't change as he replied confidently, ”It's still in process, but I will get it done”
”Hurry it up, we don't have time. I already helped you by blocking numerous reinforcement to Eqosa City, you should use that to convince them”, the Green Messenger said making Rex frown upon hearing this.
Rex process what the Green Messenger said before he frowns, ”Why did you do that? Eqosa City needs those reinforcement to stay alive”
”You could've just left this to me, I'll convince them my way”, Rex added.
But upon hearing this, the Green Messenger didn't reply for a moment before he said, ”You ask me to let you convince the UWO to band with us since it will affect the organization, the King ordered me to help you. It's not only your mission but also mine”
”In order to convince the UWO you can't use regular means, we have to force them to accept”
Hearing this, Rex gritted his teeth.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, what the Green Messenger said is true.
The Green Messenger told the King about Rex's plan, so it makes sense for the King to put the burden on the Green Messenger too.
By blocking the reinforcement to Eqosa City that needs to pass a city that is under the influence of the SCO, this creates a predicament for the UWO since if they fail then their reputation will dwindle even more.
Sacrificing Eqosa City in order to force the UWO.
But something doesn't sit right for Rex,
”But the SCO and the UWO are not the only ones playing this game, the Supernatural is also there that can use this opportunity to murder us all! Did you not think of that?”, Rex said calmly, but there's a hint of anger in his tone.
Hearing this, the Green Messenger scoffed, ”Of course, I know that”
”And although humans have conflicts with each other, the Supernatural definitely also have conflicts with each other since they're different races banding into one. That is why I'm here”, he added.
Rex frown in confusion, he looks at the Green Messenger questioningly before the Green Messenger continues, ”I talked to the King, and he agrees to give me an army of Black Hand to disrupt the peace in Supernatural territory”
”How will you do that?”, Rex asks in confusion.
In order to disrupt the peace then they need something big, not only attacking a city of Supernatural but attacking the Supernatural Kingdom.
If they manage to do that, then it will hinder the Supernatural's movement.
But then, the Green Messenger suddenly approaches Rex with light steps.
Rex steps back cautiously as the Green Messengers stretches his hand forward.
He opened the thing that he's playing with all this time, he put some of its content on his hand that looks like sparkling dust before he waves it at Rex's ear.
Fush...
The sparkling dust hovers on Rex's ear before suddenly Rex can feel a slight change.
Rex touches his ear before he looks at the Green Messenger with wide eyes, his ears just turn pointy after getting dusted by the sparkling dust.
Seeing Rex's surprised expression, the Green Messenger close the vial and step back.
”I have developed this thing by dissecting and studying a powerful Dark Shapeshifter that wonders in human territory, this is a vial that can change someone's appearance that lasted for a couple of hours at best”, the Green Messenger explains.
But upon hearing this, Rex was quite surprised, 'Shapeshifter? Is it the one that came to me?'
Rex remembered the day in Faraday University where he got ambushed by a Shapeshifter, and he's forced to use the Invincible Item from the berserk quest.
'They manage to capture that Shapeshifter? It's pretty powerful', Rex thought.
The Green Messenger then added, ”If the wearer is dead before the effect wears off, they will not change back into their original appearance so it won't blow our cover. Combined with another item that I developed, we can disguise ourselves as Supernatural to create havoc. We will be disguising them as Elves or Vampires since they have similar traits as us”
Hearing this, Rex was in disbelief as he look at Green Messenger in horror.
The thing that he invented surprises Rex to his core, something like this can change the tide of the war easily since trickery is not prohibited in a war of survival.
If Rex manages to band the UWO and the SCO together, then humans will be unstoppable.
Because of this, Rex found newfound respect towards the Green Messenger that can be considered as an important inventor for humanity.
”Since I'm the leader of this assault, I came here to notify you about this and ask you personally to pressure the UWO while I and the others will create a distraction. I have the same vision as you, and this is the last chance to unite the UWO and SCO”, the Green Messenger finally said.
Rex nodded his head in acknowledgment, he also notice the hidden meaning of what the Green Messenger meant by the last chance.
If what he interprets is correct,
