Rodriguez and his companions smiled awkwardly and did not answer the waiter.
The waiter led the three of them down along the stairs, opened the basement door, and stood at the doorway to signal them to enter.
The three of them walked into the basement and saw Payne in the basement, with the soothing music going on.
The basement was like a small workshop, equipped with various types of processing equipment such as lathe, milling machine, grinder, and planer.
Payne, who looked somewhat gentle and quiet, sat in front of the workbench and squinted at the dismantled guns on the table.
âPayne? Iâm Thompson. We met at the airport before, but I didnât look like this before.â
Payne raised his head and looked at Thompson with cold eyes.
âDonât mention the airport. I feel so ashamed. I never failed in my missions before, but I failed for the first time because of you. Thank you very much.â
Thompson felt cold all over his body and couldnât help taking two steps backward, âWell, I didnât expect it. Who knew Maximilianâs brain circuit is so weird that he guessed my plan at one blow.â
âCut the crap and tell me what you want.â
âHey, Iâm Rodriguez. This time the headquarters sent me to collect Maximilianâs blood sample. But we donât have a clue now and donât know what to do, so we need your help.â
Payne was taken aback for a moment, then tilted his head and looked at Rodriguez.
âCollect his blood sample? Are you going to analyze his genetic fragments?â
âI donât know much about this. I just follow the orders. I know you are an intelligence agent in the headquarters, so I want to ask you for help.â
Payne lowered his eyelids as if thinking about Rodriguezâs request.
âThis is not an easy task. Do you know Maximilianâs identity? He is not an ordinary person. Well, no wonder you donât know about it, because I havenât sent the news back yet.â
The three of them were a little surprised. Payne clearly wanted to tell them that Maximilianâs identity was not simple.
They couldnât imagine what kind of unique identity Maximilian would have.
âWhat is his identity? Documents show that he is just an ordinary person, without any profound background.â
âThatâs because you are unaware of it. I just got the news. Maximilian is the young master of Dragon Sect, and he will be the successor of the Dragon Sect in the future. Oh, no, it is still unclear whether he can inherit it. It depends on whether he can defeat Dragon Queen or not.â
The three of them were so shocked by this news that their eyes widened in an instant.
Dragon Sect had been fighting with their organization for hundreds of years!
âHe turns out to be the young master of the Dragon Sect! Then if we catch him, we will have a chance to use him to control the Dragon Sect!â Rodriguezâs eyes glinted with interest.
âItâs a good idea, but do you think we can catch him easily?â
Payneâs tone was full of sarcasm.
Rodriguez looked at Payne in amazement and hesitated for a moment, but didnât speak his mind.
After all, he came only to ask Payne for help. There were so many things he couldnât tell Payne directly.
Payne picked up the sleeve on the table, wiped it gently, and said slowly, âAll I can tell you is that Iâm sorry I canât help you, because I have a more important plan at my hand.â
âAre you really unable to offer any help? Maybe we can cooperate. You help me complete the task, and I will help you implement the plan.â Rodriguez wanted to try his best to fight for it.
Payne smiled, shook his head, and said, âNo, I will do it by myself. But I hope you can keep the secret and donât expose my existence.â
Rodriguez shrugged helplessly and made a look of regret.
âWell, we wonât say anything. Just forget what happened tonight. Guys, letâs go.â Rodriguez took Thompson and Wallace to leave. Payne looked at the back of the three of them away and narrowed his eyes slightly.
âWhat a bunch of bastards! I have to delay my plan again. Damned Maximilian, you can live for a few days again, but you wonât live long!â
After speaking, Payne ran his hands over the table. Just then, the pistol disassembled into parts was assembled in the blink of an eye.
Payne assembled the pistol so fast that his movements were hard to see.
The basement door opened again, and the waiter returned, âPayne, they are all gone.â
âArrange someone to keep a close watch on them. If they succeed, just let them go. If they fail, kill everyone who escapes. I donât want them to ruin my plan anymore.â
âYes, or kill them now?â A murderous intent flashed in the waiterâs eyes.
âIn that case, Sir Brute will suspect us. I donât want to expose my true identity. Iâm still their intelligence agent, understand?â
âUnderstood!â
After the waiter left, Payne closed his eyes and meditated.
One night passed quickly, and a new day began.
Maximilian and Victoria went to the company together. Now Victoria was devoted to her work, and wanted to let Topyuan Group grow fast.
All of the companyâs affairs were advancing as planned, but what attracted most attention was the experiment on the prescription.
Reggie and Doctor Hughes from the Pharmacology Department walked into Victoriaâs office together, and both of them showed a joyous smile.
âGood news, good news!â Reggie said excitedly.
Maximilian smiled slightly and already guessed what the good news was.
âVice President Reggie, whatâs the good news? Is there a positive result of the experiment?â Victoria asked with a smile.
âYes, yes, the effect of the experiment is very good. Doctor Hughes, you can tell it in detail.â
Doctor Hughes stole a glance at Victoria and then quickly lowered his eyes. He thought Victoria was more beautiful than any woman he had seen before.
Doctor Hughes had an indistinct admiration for Victoria. However, he suppressed the admiration in his heart and did not show it in the slightest.
After all, Victoria was already married, and her husband Maximilian was sitting aside. Doctor Hughes could only sigh, even if he admired Victoria so much.
âOur Pharmacology Department and the University of Traditional Medicine jointly conducted pharmacological studies and experiments on the drug efficacy. Using the Transplant Wild Ginseng with a history of 20 years has a very noticeable effect, and the effect is better than Viagra.â
âThe effect with the Transplant Wild Ginseng with a history of 10 years is comparatively noticeable, close to that of the Viagra. It is much better than similar domestic products. But Ginseng with shorter years does not work.â
Just then, Doctor Hughes handed over a file and placed it in front of Victoria.
