Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) Chapter 2711-

Rusty was stunned speechless. He yanked his pants up and growled through his teeth, “Fine, I’m done. Damn it, Mr. Lloyd gave the order, so what else can I do?” Mikayla got a set of clothes to change into and shakily stood up, following Jerome out. Koda watched the two leave, his eyes dark and brooding, Rusty stood beside him, spitting out bitterly, “Mr. Dawson, I really don’t get it… Are you the leader, or is it Andrew? While you were out cold, we got pushed around by him. Now you’re awake, and you’ve taken over the Advanced Medical Institute, about to become the director.

Why the hell does this punk from Chetvine still get to boss us around?” Koda did not say anything, but the dark look in his eyes only deepened. After a long pause, he smirked. “Rusty, don’t you think Mr. Lloyd is a major contributor to my success?” Rusty reluctantly admitted, “Of course he is. Without him, we never would’ve pulled this off. Especially you… You wouldn’t have come out on top in the end.” Koda kept smiling. “So tell me, doesn’t the relationship between —- Mr. Lloyd and me look a lot like the one between Corbin and Lorenzo?” Rusty paused, then his expression turned strange.

“Now that you mention it, you really are kind of like Corbin, aren’t you? But Mr. Dawson, what’s that supposed to mean?” Koda chuckled with deep meaning. “It means my fate might very well end up like that dead bastard Corbin’s. Mr. Lloyd is no simple character; far from it. If he wanted me to step down and take the director’s seat himself, do you think I’d dare say no?” Rusty looked shocked. He lowered his head, at a loss for words. With a sigh, he shook his head. “Mr. Dawson, the way things turned out is already pretty damn good for you. We have no choice.

We can’t beat him, so we might as well bow down and listen to him. “Otherwise, just now, I would’ve had my way with that Owens family bitch. If it wasn’t for being afraid of that Lloyd guy, you think I’d willingly let myself go soft down there?” Koda said with a sinister smile, “Actually, I think if things really came to a showdown, it’s still anyone’s guess who’d come out alive. At least, knowing what happened to Corbin, I’d rather die than end up like him.” —- Up on Flying Peak, Andrew looked at the 28 alchemists before him with great satisfaction.

He had handpicked them from within the Advanced Medical Institute. Soon, he would be taking them back to Chetvine’s Medicine God’s Covenant. With this, the pressure on Medicine God’s Covenant would be greatly relieved. These alchemists represented almost half of the Advanced Medical Institute’s current value. There was no helping it. This internal conflict had dealt massive losses to the Advanced Medical Institute. The director was dead, the Grand Elder and several of his supporters, along with plenty of apprentices, were all waiting to cross over.

In other words, their overall strength had been severely crippled. Only the group of alchemists in the valley had escaped relatively unscathed. However, these precious gems were now about to be plundered by Andrew. Still, Andrew did not feel like he was robbing the Advanced Medical Institute. He thought it was a fair trade. Since he had helped Koda, Koda had to pay the price, These alchemists were sent by Koda’s own orders to serve under Andrew in Chetvine. Officially, it was called a six-month collaboration between the two sides.

—- In modern terms, it was labor outsourcing, human resource export. Nonetheless, both Koda and Andrew knew full well that once these promising talents reached Chetvine, they would never return to the Advanced Medical Institute. Even without Andrew’s sweet talking and offer of fancy clubs and models, the Advanced Medical Institute was in ruins, and nobody wanted to return to a sinking ship. One could see it on the alchemists’ faces. Behind their numb expressions was a hint of hope. They could not wait to leave the Advanced Medical Institute behind.

Jerome smiled and said, “Andy, once we get to the nearest major city, we can charter a private jet and have everyone flown straight to Chetvine.” Andrew nodded. “Mr. Thornton, please coordinate it with Eric. I’ve also contacted people on the Chetvine side. They’re sending someone to meet us.”
