THE LIVINETT PROTOCOL 9
26

It was getting dark, and the night had come. The soldiers looked exhausted, many of them having slept. Only a few people are still talking. Including Derpaz, Luis, Papilon and Deart. What was not seen between them was only Garben. Perhaps he had slept from exhaustion like the others.

Marco talked for a while with them. Then he left his friends. Marco decides to see Nolas, he returns to the lab with Tinos. During the trip, Marco was still thinking about the twins. Is their story really real, or just a joke. If it is really a fact, of course this will increase Marco's knowledge of the actual history.

Marco and Tinos almost arrived at the laboratory, they walked a little slowly. “So the one who taught you swordsmanship is Nolas?”

“Yes. He also freed me from that cursed place. You're really outrageous, how could you lock me up in a place like that,” Tinos' facial features become irritated.

“It was for your own good. If I let you follow me, you will die young. I did not expect that Nolas had such incredible sword prowess.”

“Forget it. I was also surprised at first. I thought he took me out to make my body a test subject.”

They both reached the main entrance. Marco presses a secret button hidden among the roots of an old tree. The ground shook and split open, the door automatically appeared. They jumped inside and stepped on the bottom of the elevator. The laboratory was specially built. Marco did not know what the laboratory would become in the future.

They were welcomed inside and Nolas was wiping his glasses. He smiled towards the two young men who had just entered his laboratory. As he looked at them, Nolas smiled wider and wider, perhaps imagining his youth. A vigorous youth and boiling blood. The most beautiful time in the course of his life.

“You are back. What about the battle this time?” ask Nolas.

“Very successful thanks to the reckless science you taught Tinos! Nolas, why don't you ask me for permission first that you're going to train this kribo boy.”

“If I tell you in advance, it is certain that you will ban me.”

“Sure. Because he was too small to fight. His life is only one, if he dies, can you turn him on?”

“Already. What matters is that you come back safe. During your departure to train in Harfil Village, I did deliberately train Tinos swordsmanship.”

“Basic. Why don't you tell me if you have sword skills, and why don't you go to war. You're certainly better than that ugly afro.”

“Stop poking me constantly, fucking Marco. I am now very strong, don't underestimate me. And remember, don't insult my hair anymore,” Tinos chirped.

“What's really why? Your hair is indeed kribo, after all it has been attached to be a unique thing to recognize you.”

“Yah. Just as you please. Now I'm tired, I want to sleep.”

Their conversation is over. After cleansing his body, Tinos went straight to sleep. Marco had also taken a bath, and he invited Nolas to accompany him to speak. They spoke in separate rooms with Tinos. The laboratory actually has 4 rooms that are quite comfortable. But Nolas rarely put him to sleep.

This time Marco intends to hand over the book that Derpaz left Sandzelt. The book seemed so important that people there left it to give to Nolas. It's like a pharmacy book, but it's very old-fashioned. Because the pharmacy books Marco's father had were better.

“This book was put on me to give it to you.”

Nolas receives the book and observes the cover. “It looks like this book is a book I wrote a few years ago. Definitely that guy Riyim, he's also a drug expert.”

Marco frowned, he did not understand the words of the person before him. “You wrote that? For what?”

“Yes. I also wrote a few books about my research. There used to be failed attempts. The first robot I made rampaged, he destroyed a field of medicinal plants. With this book, I formulated a concoction to destroy the robot. The herb is a kind of acid that will destroy the machine as well as the system.”

“Yes. I lived there.”

“Good. I'll leave the book to you, good night.”

Marco ended the conversation. He headed to an empty room to sleep. Arriving at the room, he looked. The young man finally thought of something. It seemed like an idea had just flashed through his head. He got out of bed and picked up his father's pharmacy book.

He was very serious, his eyes glancing at every line of sentence written on the book. His hands were very deftly flipping through each sheet of the book. His speed reading ability was as if racing with the motion of his hands. His brain was so focused, he studied the book in an instant. He then closed the book, his face revealing a smile so wide.

“This time must have worked,” he said.

I don't know what's on his mind. The idea of what had just appeared, he was like getting inspiration from the sky. After he finished reading, he decided to go to bed. The night just changed with the morning again. Marco had woken up from his sleep, washed his face and headed for the lab. Nolas was reading a book he received last night. Marco came to the middle-aged man.

“Good morning, what are you working on?” ask Marco.

“Oh. Morning, Marco. Now I'm studying the pharmacy book you gave me last night. In this book there are some formulas that I myself have forgotten.”

“So. Nolas, listen to me. I have a good idea, maybe if with your help, my plan can go smoothly. If my idea is really realized, we can defeat the troops from Trovolta.”

Nolas was shocked to hear what Marco had just said. He put down the book he was holding. “What idea do you mean?” ask Nolas.

“I've studied books I picked up from the future. With the book, we can combine it with the science in your book. Give me the book, I'll study for a minute.”

“Hm. Your brain is genius. No good I doubt you, well please you learn this book of mine.”

Nolas handed the book to Marco. Marco sat down and read the book he had just received. He studied the book Riyim had given him from Sandzelt. His eyes moved left-right following each line of sentence. Like last night, he read very quickly, even though the book was quite thick. Nolas was completely stunned at Marco's ability.

“Why can you read that fast? Is this because of the syndrome you're suffering from?” ask Nolas.

“Yes. You certainly don't know, because the name of my disease is only known after 100 years of this war ended. Actually it's just a disorder, not a deadly disease. People in my day call it hyperthymesis syndrome. They say, this is a rare disorder experienced by the brain. I have super memory skills, anything I learn I can remember with a flash.”

“Ah. When you first came here, you also showed your ability. But I forgot to ask what makes you this smart. I think it's a common thing that people from the future have.”

“No. This disorder is very rare, only a few people experience it. Because of this abnormality, I was shunned by all my friends in the future. They say I'm a monster because it's so different from them.”

“So. Don't worry, you are very impressive,” Nolas praised the young man, “well, now tell me, what plan do you think?”

“We will create a virus that will destroy the armor used by the giants of Trovolta.”
