482. The Flood
As the days passed, Kronos Tech’s revolutionary medication hit the market like a tsunami, flooding every city in Ivera with healing serums, anti-aging pills, and safe weight loss drugs.Within a week, every single pharmacy and online medical store was stocking its shelves with Kronos Tech’s pills, gels, creams, and vaccines.Meanwhile, Salasar Corporation’s surgical equipment and advanced scanning devices started making their way to clinics, labs, and even super specialty hospitals.Alex hadn’t contacted any private corporations directly or signed any secret deals, yet his products had flooded the market, going completely unnoticed so far.However, as the hype intensified around Kronos Tech’s new drugs hitting Ivera’s healthcare sector, the media slowly started sniffing around.Eventually, the news reached Martin Iverson. And he immediately rang up Governor Franklin Morton.“Where are you, Franklin?” he burst forth.“At the theatre. Trying to watch a play in peace,” Franklin replied i
481. The Ultimate Soldiers
The volunteers from the Blood Moon Academy were taken down to the courtyard, where Captain Williams’ hand-picked, elite commandos were waiting for them.Alex watched from the balcony as the whole group was divided into two teams.For this particular combat session, the focus was going to be entirely on unarmed combat, and all types of martial arts techniques were allowed without any restrictions.The elite commandos dressed in black combat vests, with tactical masks obscuring their faces, looked like formidable opponents.But the boys from the Blood Dragon Academy, wearing the classic round-necked black tees and crimson pants, didn’t seem bothered at all.“Physical evaluations indicated extreme endurance levels and elevated focus. The God Serum has enhanced these volunteers far beyond their mental and physical limits,” Dr. Lucy remarked, as she looked on from above.Standing beside her, Alex put his hands on the stone railing and replied, “Laboratory evaluations are only an indicator
480. Breakthrough
Alex’s plan was immediately put into action.All the medical equipment and pharmaceutical supplies were shipped into the city on separate cargo planes and delivered to the cartel.Having smuggled psychoactive substances and illegal firearms all his life, Xavier had no trouble arranging for the dispersal of these non-contrabands.Soon, the cartel’s deep network kicked into overdrive, connecting to every hospital, clinic, and medical store in Nuevo Durango.But they didn’t stop there.Once Nuevo Durango had been stocked full of supplies from Kronos Tech and Salasar, the cartel stepped up its efforts and started ferrying the goods out to Hannington and even Clover Dale.Governor Morton was already too pleased to hear that Alex’s licenses and permits had been rejected. And he was relishing the victory too much to bother with anything else.However, Raymond Smith still called him up, asking him to keep an eye on Alex.Alex was happy with the progress the cartel had made so far.Even though
479. The Ivera Business Plan
Governor Morton’s face blanched as he read that threatening note.He didn’t even have to wonder who it was. He knew for a fact that it had to be Alex.“We’ll just run a trace on this. I’ll find whoever was behind,” the police sergeant said, taking a look at the note.But Governor Morton shook his head.“No need. I don’t think you’ll find any links.”Even though Governor Morton knew this had to be Alex’s handiwork, he couldn’t prove anything. And if he got the cops involved, his own mess would also have been blown open into the public eye.For now, he chose not to take the legal route, but this incident left him deeply disturbed.The message was clear.If Alex wanted, he could get to the Governor at any time. And even the best security in the world wouldn’t have been able to stop him.Governor Morton, however, wasn’t the kind of person to be intimidated so easily.“You are playing with fire, Alex Verlaine. This is my territory,” he muttered on his way back home. “I am not like the mayo
478. Governor’s Day Out
In the afternoon, as Governor Morton switched on the TV, he saw the news of the brutal massacre in Elara.The room was still stained with blood, and the bullet holes were impossible to miss.However, the only ones who were reported as dead were the three assassins the Governor had hired to take Alex out.“What a waste of time and money,” he muttered, cursing it all. “Why the hell did I even pay you? I shouldn’t have hired such morons in the first place.”From what was shown on the news, Governor Morton concluded that the three assassins had gotten into a shooting without knowing each other, and in the mix-up, ended up killing each other.“I guess you are one lucky little mouse,” he scoffed. “But your luck will run out soon enough. You are not going to survive, Ivera, Alex Verlaine.”Just then, he received a call from Raymond Smith.“What kind of idiots did you hire for this job?” he thundered.“I didn’t know they were so useless. I paid each of them half a million for this hit. But al
477. What Goes Around
A rush of heavy footsteps sounded on the corridor outside as armed cops marched up the floor and landed on the door marked 309.They immediately went into high alert as they noticed the bullet holes in the door.“Open up! You’ve been surrounded. There is no way out!”The shout was followed by heavy knocking.“This is the NDPD! Open the damn door!”“Drop your weapon and come out with your hands behind your back!”Alex didn’t stick around to explain what had happened. He knew they would never believe him, and even if they did, he would still land in troubled waters.While the cops continued banging on the door, Alex headed to the bathroom and climbed out of the window.He jumped down from the ledge, landing on top of the dumpster sitting in the corner, and rolled away to safety.Meanwhile, the cops upstairs kicked the door open and barged in.“What the hell happened here?”“Damn. Another drug deal gone wrong?”As they spotted the two dead bodies and the bullets sprayed all across the ro
