Abyss Solo-Chapter 103 - : 062 The Butt of the Senior Agent

Chapter 103: 062 The Butt of the Senior Agent

‘Why is there another senior agent?’

Gudun Mah frowned at the projected screen in front of him and instinctively glanced at the hidden door concealing the mechanical guards.

Even though he had used the best painkillers, his hip still throbbed ever so slightly.

Gudun Mah had noticed.

The country was on the brink of a rising tidal wave, as the New Federation had been preparing for years and was finally ready to make a move.

Two senior agents had ‘sought out’ him in succession, which indicated everything!

...

He could not afford any more carelessness.

He could not repeat the same mistakes.

Never!

“Sir, the merchant you are expecting is at the door.”

His loyal Guard Captain reminded him nearby.

Gudun Mah glanced at the several guards in the room. Although he was entirely unwilling, meeting with a foreign agent meant he could not have these guards present, and the room would activate a soundproof barrier.

Gudun Mah slowly raised his hand. The guards, in perfect unison, left the doorway, and today’s ‘main character’ waited outside, poised to enter.

Gudun Mah took a sidelong glance, feeling more agitated.

The middle-aged man should be a seasoned spy. He bore the features of a New Federation person—a high forehead, deep-set eyes, dark eye color, and a prominent Adam’s apple. He wore a well-fitting gray suit, and his thick brown hair was fluffy and tough in texture. His bow tie at the neck certainly concealed various spy gadgets.

The agent closed the door behind him.

He began to gaze at Gudun Mah with a ‘deep affection.’

At that moment, Gudun Mah’s instinct returned—that keen sense honed over years of dealing with such figures, which Yang Ming had dulled. It was back now.

‘This agent needed something from me.’

Gudun Mah’s lips curled into a slight smile.

“General,” Senior Agent Lulian performed a gentlemanly bow with a flourish towards Gudun Mah, “It is indeed my honor that you have taken the time to see me amidst your busy schedule.”

“Save your deceitful pleasantries.”

Gudun Mah glanced at the direction of the hidden door and said coldly,

“Sit down, state your purpose, present your terms, and then leave as soon as possible. Our Emperor is already very dissatisfied with the current situation. I do not wish to bear His Majesty’s wrath.”

Lulian, with a confident smile, casually sat in the chair opposite Gudun Mah, crossing his legs and tilting his body to the side, his deep eyes meeting Gudun Mah’s gaze.

Soon, Lulian averted his gaze, scratched the ridge of his nose with his finger, and spoke in a somewhat condescending tone,

“Deputy Chief of Staff, I am here seeking collaboration with you.”

Gudun Mah habitually placed his left hand near the edge of the table, just above the protective shield button.

He replied calmly, “Collaborate? I am an Imperial General. I can’t collaborate with a federal agent.”

“We both know very well what the Luofeng Empire truly is,” Lulian slightly curled his lips, “There’s no human rights, no freedom, no democracy, only an aging dictator and oppressed citizens.”

Gudun Mah sneered, “If those words weren’t coming from your mouth, I would agree more easily.”

“Oh, General,” Lulian slightly squinted, “why do I feel a strong hostility emanating from you?”

“I’ve had enough of you agents!”

Gudun Mah growled but quickly hid his anger and took a deep breath with closed eyes,

“Quickly state your purpose and don’t waste my time.”

Lulian’s lips twitched slightly, and he chuckled, “That’s no attitude for cooperation.”

Gudun Mah feigned slapping the right-hand bell.

“Oh, alright, Deputy Chief of Staff,” Lulian showed apparent regret, “I know you’re very busy, but this issue concerns your future and your nation’s future. We must approach it with a calmer mindset.”

“You have three minutes,” Gudun Mah reminded him.

Fleeting anger crossed Lulian’s eyes, but he continued smiling, “It’s about to begin, our final plan.”

Gudun Mah simply stared at Lulian.

Lulian spoke slowly, “We can no longer ignore what’s happening in this country, with the Sherman Empire exploiting citizens through the Wind royal family…”

“Cut the nonsense.”

“I need help,” Lulian’s face turned a bit cold, “or rather, I need the military to maintain a de-facto neutrality in the coming months and, at the right moment, express your support for the people.”

Gudun Mah replied coolly, “Then? Watch as the New Federation gradually gains control over this country?”

“Wouldn’t that benefit you and your people?”

Lulian said calmly, “Your children receive education in our country, and most of your assets are there. General, your best life is actually in peaceful retirement under our protection.”

Gudun Mah fell silent for a while.

Lulian thought he had won.

He had presented Gudun Mah an offer that couldn’t be refused—the confidence of a great nation’s envoy.

Gudun Mah suddenly asked, “If the Sherman Empire’s fleet appeared before us, how would the New Federation respond?”

Lulian’s expression changed subtly.

He stared at Gudun Mah, “General?”

“I’m asking you,” Gudun Mah spoke softly, “if the Sherman Empire’s fleet suddenly jumped, and their main cannon pointed at my face, what would your New Federation do?”

Lulian was silent for a few seconds, then smiled, “We would undoubtedly do everything to ensure your safety.”

“Only a fool would believe that!” Gudun Mah cursed under his breath.

Lulian squinted slightly, fiddling with the ring on his left ring finger, “General, you seem to have lost sight of your own position. This is not good news.”

Gudun Mah squinted slightly, his lean face mocking.

“It seems,” Lulian said calmly, “we need to change the way we’re talking!”

Before finishing his sentence, Lulian suddenly sprang up like a leopard towards Gudun Mah!

Underneath the agent’s skin, textures appeared instantly like ‘circuit boards’!

Gudun Mah nearly went insane.

This bunch of bastards!

These bastards, relying on their enhanced strengths post-transformation, showed no respect for him as a general!

This could only happen once! Gudun Mah swore on his manhood it could only happen once!

Buzz!

A deep blue energy shield abruptly appeared in front of Gudun Mah!

With a thud, Lulian’s hand slammed hard against the shield, his wrist instantly dislocating, and the crisp sound of breaking bones echoed throughout the room.

The deep blue energy shield remained unmoved.

In fact, Gudun Mah raised an eyebrow, lightly tapping his nose, and casually pressed a button on the side of the desk. A deep red energy shield appeared inside the blue energy shield.

He had added a passive-trigger mecha energy shield.

So far, the effect seemed quite satisfactory.

“Ah! My hand!”

Lulian kept shouting.

Before Gudun Mah could activate the mechanical guards, the door had already been burst open by the guards. Seven or eight hulking men swarmed in, and roughly pinned Lulian to the ground.

“Today’s young people really have no manners.”

Gudun Mah calmly stood up, wearing his military uniform and boots, and circled his desk.

Three of the burly men had undergone basic genetic enhancements, making their strength far beyond that of ordinary soldiers. At this point, they could directly tear Lulian apart.

But Gudun Mah could not do that.

The senior agent didn’t represent just himself; behind him was the New Federation. Gudun Mah could teach him a lesson, but he couldn’t kill him.

Today’s conflict would be truthfully shared with his old friends and reported directly to high-ranking officials of the New Federation.

The military could accept the Federation’s upcoming surgical transformation of the Luofeng Empire.

But this transformation must protect military interests and ensure the safety of a few old soldiers.

Gudun Mah considered today’s conflict expertly handled.

“Lift his butt up, uh, yes, just like that.”

Gudun Mah directed the guards to adjust Lulian’s position while speaking slowly,

“Go back and talk to your superiors, Lulian. This business deal depends on your sincerity. For freedom.”

Gudun Mah gave a powerful kick forward with his right foot clad in military boots.

With a dull thud, Lulian’s body convulsed violently, nearly passing out.

Satisfying.

Gudun Mah smiled indulgently, even though his toes twinged slightly, he was noticeably happier, curling his lips, “Send him back to the surface, find a hospital to treat his injuries, and I’ll cover the medical bills.”

“Yes!”

…

In the monster truck, Yang Ming silently removed his sunglasses and ended his surveillance at Gudun Mah’s place.

Was that it?

What kind of senior agent was this, what kind of torchbearer?

Lyu’s figure appeared in the central console’s three-dimensional projection, full of disdain,

“This Transformed was simply too weak.”

“Lulian is also a Genetic Modifier?”

“No,” Lyu said, “The New Federation’s technique involves directly transforming the body. They did some work under Lulian’s dermis, injecting a lot of bionic materials… The consequence of this is that aging transformed people’s skin becomes tight and their movements somewhat restricted. Moreover, they generally do not live to old age.”

Yang Ming frowned and said, “This technique is far more stable than genetic modification.”

“But genes are the foundation of biological information,” Lyu said softly, “Boss, you were fortunate to have become a Secondary Ancient God Life Form, which exemplifies the infinite possibilities of genetic modification technology.”

Yang Ming pondered for a moment, “Lyu, what do you think the New Federation will do?”

“No response.”

“Why?”

“The New Federation can mass-produce agents. Lulian, although a standout among his peers, showed that the Wind military held more value, as they had control over the majority of this country’s armed forces. They were the key to whether the rebels could be timely suppressed.”

Yang Ming wiped his face, “Before the rebellion occurs, I must lay enough groundwork with the military and the royal family. I should have some time. Lyu, help me focus on these three tasks moving forward, executing them concurrently.”

Lyu took out her notebook.

Yang Ming had already organized his thoughts, and quickly said,

“First, using the internal network information you’ve breached from the military, find me ten to fifteen soldiers with potential that can be trained. At the right time, have Gudun Mah gather them together. I need to form my initial team once I enter the military, prioritizing quality over quantity.

“Second, plan a fake assassination targeting the Emperor. Make all preparations so you can act immediately when I need it.

“Third, continually provide the Second Prince with subliminal messaging in the network he can access, aiming to suggest the idea of ‘having Yang Ming join the Royal Guard as an officer wouldn’t be too bad.'”

Lyu immediately nodded, “Understood.”

“Don’t force the third task,” Yang Ming said, “the Second Prince is a good person. I quite like him.”

“Alright, Boss,” Lyu smiled, “There are many ways to enter the Royal Guard, but the best way is through the Second Prince’s recommendation, as this would leave the Emperor with an impression of you.”

“Precisely.”

Yang Ming started up the ‘Monster,’ heading towards his factory.

“Keep a close eye on Lulian. If he plans to take action, raise the torch, then I’ll go and pour cold water on him… Kicking his butt would feel pretty nice.”

Lyu couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Boss, do you want me to send this video to the Second Prince?”

“No need, it would just annoy that guy…”

Ding, ding!

A message popped up. Yang Ming hadn’t had a chance to read it before Lyu began to read aloud.

“The Second Prince sent a message asking: Hey Yang Ming, want to grab a drink at the Fancy Drinks Place? I heard it’s pretty good; I haven’t had a chance to visit.”

Yang Ming: …

Nightclub it is, calling it ‘Fancy Drinks Place’, who are you trying to impress?
