The Man of the Future

Chapter 5 (Saxon the Inciter)

The atmosphere of silence was still created and enveloped the Pacific Water city. When Nack and his friends intend to leave their base.

They were all gathered in an ordinary place, a place where they used to gather. To deliver Nack and his chosen friends on the mission. Heading to the underworld. With the aim to find the Jade Buddha statue. Its existence was already known to their group.

Nack, the leader of the mission, is seen starting a conversation with Clark. As the leader of the hit group.

"Lord, I can't guarantee. If I can get that Jade Buddha statue. Because I think my chances this time are too small. Maybe only 60% of the success" said Nack, in a pessimistic tone.

Hearing the words of Nack who pessimistic tone. Clark looked at Nack sharply. In front of him, Clark felt dislike for Nack's words filled with a complaining tone. In the search for the Jade Buddha statue.

"There's no need to be such a pessimist, Nack. I know this is the hardest task I've ever given you. Because you're going head-to-head with other professional hunters, who may have abilities and powers above you," Clark stopped his words for a moment, as he looked at the shell-shaped clock of the sea, it's circular on his left wrist.

"Instead, it's very likely that the Well family will interfere in this affair. Not to mention if the New Gura-Gura group intervenes, then your chances will be increasingly shrunk taken by them. Tella, Fabian, Felton and Holman. Then our chances will increase by 90%" explained Clark, as if to give encouragement and confidence, to his men.

Nack took a deep breath, hearing Clark's words. All that sounds to him, is just his bases. Or just a solace to himself.

"Hhhhhhh!" Nack took a deep breath, then exhaled back from both nostrils. Then he said back to Clark.

"But the Leader, the Well family and the New Guests group cannot be underestimated. Has the leader forgotten the events of 1 year ago?" ask Nack, tell him about the past. Where their group once clashed with Er Well, who is the adoptive father of Mark Well.

"No Nack, I'll never forget that. And I swear one day, I will avenge them" replied Clark, fiery.

"But...!" nack's speech was decapitated by Clark's speech.

"Nack, don't talk much anymore, which is like you're implying a pessimist. Who lost before the match. But I'll tell you the information. Who's gonna step in the Well family!" Clark was silent for a moment, paying attention to one by one his members who he gave the mission of hunting jade Buddha statues in the underworld.

"On this mission. The Well family only sent its last generation, with the lowest ability and strength in the Well family. It was Mark Well, who worked for Mr. Jhon Swett, the Governor of the Equatorial Space City," Clark then took two steps to get closer to Nack. It still seems to be overshadowed by worry. Who ruled himself.

"He's the same age as you, with possible abilities and powers as high as you. So you don't have to worry about dealing with the Well family. Because this time Er Well, his father was. Not out of the cage. He was lazy to interfere in this business, because the fee offered by Mr. Jhon Swett was too low for his size," Clark said it made the hearts of its members became a little calm.

"What's Leader!, what did you say?, Mark Well?" asked Nack, in full search. When Mark's name was mentioned by Clark.

Nack then fell silent for a moment. But finally, he spoke up again.

"I think I was very familiar with that name. But there's no way he's a member of the Well family, that's impossible..," Nack's remark made everything in that place, clueless. 'What happened to Nack?'.

 

Maybe that's the word that's on all of them.

"Nack, what's wrong with you?. Do you have a past connection to a man named Mark Well?" ask Tella to Nack. That's right next to Nack.

"Yes, there seems to be a connection between me and her. But what I know, and I remember, isn't Mark Well. But Mark Kler, his name is. And we've been apart for 15 years" explains Nack, recalling his past.

"Maybe it's another Mark, Nack. Not in this world the name Mark is not owned by just one person," said Tella.

And Nack nodded his head at the words of his lover.

"Yes, Tell may be your word is true" said Nack, flatly.

"Here you go, don't talk. Hurry up and leave this Pacific city. And immediately find the Jade Buddha statue," Saxon said, beyond the words of a leader in their group.

"Nack!, you're the youngest member of the group. So you don't argue and talk to me a lot!" the Saxon's loud speech made Clark, as their leader, have to intervene. To break up the quarrel between two of his men.

"Nack!, Saxon! stop it!" clark said, pointing his right index finger at Nack. As for his left index finger, he pointed it towards the Saxons.

"I now give the order to the five of you, to immediately go to the underworld to obtain that Jade Buddha statue, right now!" clark said with a little loud.

"Alright Chief, me and the four of them will soon set out to the underworld to find the statue. But I wonder, does the Leader have any information about the New Gura\-Gura group?" nack asked, with a full glance at Clark.

"I don't know about them, at all. They are a mysterious group. Which is unknown to any of its members. So the information about them is nil. But their number is 18 people, 2 people have been killed by Er Well 10 years ago. Their strength is average above ours, even the Leader has the power of a Level S," Clark explained, with all his seriousness.

"Yes, if the Chairman doesn't know about them. Hopefully, they don't interfere in this matter" Nack said, hoping.

"I don't think they'd rather kill the people of the underworld who still believe in God, than take care of something like this" Clark said. Which makes Nack not want to ask back.

"We, go first Chairman," said Nack pamit to the Leader.

The five of them then went to the water base in the Pacific Water city. But Clark followed their lead from behind. By leaving Saxon and other members at their headquarters.

"I hope you come back safely, and bring the statue. But if you can't take the statue. Stay home, for your lives are worth more than anything" Clark stopped his steps, as the 5 men arrived at the door of the water plane, which would take them to the underworld.

"And never force yourself, if your circumstances are really\right under the wind. Remember not to be like Jack and his team. Stupid, force yourself against Er Well. Which clearly has the ability and power above all of us. But luckily the Saxons weren't as stupid as they were. He would rather escape, than be slaughtered by Er Well. Which has the power of a muster, ." Clark explained, at length.

"Yes, we understand the Chairman, we are now leaving," said Nack, who immediately entered the water plane following 4 friends who had been in it first. Which will lead them to their destination.

Seen after the five of them entered the water plane. The tunnel where the water plane was opened. And the other tunnel doors began to close (the area protected by seawater). And the water plane then glided in the ocean, heading to the surface of the sea.

The surface of the ocean was calm, it suddenly churned. On the exit of the water plane boarded by Nack and his friends. And the water plane continues to rise at sea level, until finally airing in space. After transforming it into a hyper jet. It travels through space at hypersonic speed.

"Finally we are free in the air, free from the water area...!" shouted Nack, who was piloting the plane, with great excitement.

"Nack, you're like a kid. It's nice to see the free air...?" tella's response, sitting next to Nack, to Nack's attitude.

"Yes of course I'm happy, Tell. You know yourself?. If I hadn't been out of the ocean world for a long time. And this is the first time I've had the job of the Leader to ascend to the underworld" Nack said at length. Until Tella understood, why Nack could be so happy.

"Nack already, I know how you feel. But I'm afraid you're too happy, it's a sign that you're going to have a disaster" Tella said, with her worries.

"Don't believe in such a myth as Tell, it's the end of the 30th century, which will soon change to the 31st century" Nack said, over his lover's concerns.

"Yes, if you don't believe. But when will we get to our destination?" ask Tella.

"In a moment Tell, maybe 1 hour," replied Nack, still with happiness.

The water plane, which had transformed into a hyper jet, continued to carve the sky, with its hypersonic speed. To get to where the temple that holds the Jade Buddha statue is located.
