Chapter 73:


    After returning from an extermination mission in the forest of Ary, everything became calmer now; the rumors of attacks and missing persons in the Ary mountain range also began to subside.


    It remains unknown whether Wesker handed over Al Lester''s notebook to the mayor of Roon City or not.


    But shortly after, Wesker was made a suspect in kidnapping and murder in the Ary Mountains.


    Of course, finding a recement to me is the best option to calm angry residents.


    The beautiful reporter, Alyssa, also wrote a report of what had happened in the Ary mountains; she sent the manuscript to one of the publishers of the Roon City newspaper.


    The Umbre-controlled Roon City newspaperpany indeed changes the content about monsters and zombies in it.


    They reced it with the news that Albert Wesker was behind all this. It said that Albert Wesker disguised himself as an ax-man and killed every visitor in the Ary forest area.


    ***


    Roon City''s bar.


    Alyssa took a ss of wine and said, "Eddie, thank you so much for helping me. I''ve sessfully exposed the dark stuff in the Ary mountains. Now Kurt''s spirit can rest in peace."


    Eddie took another ss; "You''re wee; this is exactly what I have to do. But I''m still not satisfied, the ax man''s body was not found, plus it says that after the building copsed, another strange monster came out..."


    Speaking of scary monsters, of course, Alyssa still remembers them; there''s even some fear left.


    Eddie and Jill have saved her many times on that mission; if they don''t, even with ten lives, she will still die.


    "Anyway, I''m very grateful to you."


    "Do you want me to interview you? I can help you be famous. With my rtionship with the biggest newspaper in Roon City, I''m sure I can raise your poprity to the skies."


    "How was it, are you tempted?" Alyssa suddenly offered Eddie something.


    Eddie, who didn''t care about poprity, was disappointed. "I thought you''d repay me in a ''traditional'' way, huh... I feel very disappointed."


    Eddie sighed deeply; of course, all this is just acting.


    "If you want, I can reward you with that ''traditional'' thing." Alyssa raised one of her eyebrows. Who''s afraid? If Eddie wanted to, she wouldn''t mind!


    Eddie immediately coughed; "Haha, just kidding. Forget your interview offer; I don''t want to be famous."


    "Then let''s have a drink; let''s celebrate our sess in our previous mission!"


    ***


    Luxurious house.


    Spencer read the report he had just received. He looks very excited about the progress his subordinates have made.


    But in his heart, he began to worry; he feared that he was dead by the time this project was sessful. Surely he doesn''t want that!


    Suddenly Sergei entered his room; behind him, both Tyrants Ivan followed obediently. "Boss, I just received some important news. Eddie said that if you want to strengthen your physique and increase your lifespan with the serum, you should try it with your clone first."


    Sergei continued. "This method can be tried, so I wanted to let you know right away."


    Spencer''s eyes sparkled as soon as he heard Sergei''s report. He''s not an expert in this field, but he knows that the theory can be tried. "Excellent, Sergei. You did a good job." Spencer praised his trusted subordinates.


    "It''s all for you." Sergei bowed his head respectfully. Spencer has helped him when he facing the hardest time; of course, he won''t hesitate to help his benefactor. He has sworn to fulfill the other party''s dream!


    "I will hand over all affairs concerning the Ary mountains to you. Albert can still be used, so bring him back when you get the chance..." Spencer said slowly; a few secondster, he started coughing...


    "What if Wesker wants to betray you?" Sergei asked back.


    "If he wants to, then kill him!" Spencer''s eyes looked very cold. He won''t let go of anyone who tries to betray him. Not now and not forever!


    "Understand." Sergei immediately felt relieved. If he discovers evidence of Wesker''s rebellion, then he will immediately behead the opponent.


    Spencer coughed once again; when he was feeling better, he continued, "By the way, Eddie''s talent is still valuable for us. If the time is right, you can recruit him to help with our final n!"


    What was Spencer''s final n?


    As a good conspirator, maybe only two people know his final n in this world. That''s Sergei and Spencer himself.


    "Isn''t this too quick? Many things are still not ready; the Talos project is still in the manufacturing phase." Sergei frowned, though he didn''t really care about the experiment''s victims. What he''s worried about is, is Spencer really able to finish it?


    "Don''t worry about it. If the n fails, we can make a new one. I''ve done this many times in my life." Spencer sneered.


    Umbre has three founders; Marcus, Edward Ashford, thetter, of course, himself.


    As arge multinational corporation, Umbre has many branches spread worldwide.


    But there''s also apetitor; thatpetitor is none other than Shen Ya and Tricell pharmaceuticalpany.


    While Spencer focuses on gaining power, Shen Ya and Tricell sends their intruders to collect data on why Umbre can rise quickly.


    The Family has also sent one of their spies into Umbre.


    Spencer is a man of strong will; if he doesn''t get something, then he''s gonna destroy that thing.


    Take Marcus, for example, who didn''t agree to share his T-Serum research. So Spencer sent someone and killed that guy.


    Whoever refuses to obey him will suffer severe consequences!


    Even though Umbre has been infiltrated from various directions. Spencer''s staying calm like nothing happened because he holds power in the highest position! All the core technology is within his grasp.


    Umbre is just a means to the immortality project he''s working on. If the shell is no longer functional, he will remove the body and rece it with a new one.


    As long as he has Umbre supeputers and good aplices like Alex Wesker, Sergei dimir, and other good researchers. Then he''ll be able to rx.


    For now, the only thing he''s worried about is Marcus rising. Because of his current dying condition, he couldn''t get rid of the man quickly.


    But there''s one thing Spencer doesn''t realize. A woman he had considered to be his own daughter had long defected! This has indeed never urred to Spencer.


    Sergei remained silent while listening to Spencer''s words. He''s a fighter, this kind of political intrigue is a joke for him. But when ites to fighting, he''s better than anyone!


    *Bobb!*


    While Spencer and Sergei were busy discussing something, suddenly, a banging sound came from above the ceiling.


    Sergei''s expression instantly turned stern, his eyes narrowing towards the voice.
