The change in Skelemar’s emotions and the mutual hostility between Cathay and Kenneth prompted Rhett, the outsider, to shake his head with a helpless smile.
“Alright, enough. Act your age, guys. Yahir, I bet you know what happened on the desert island by now. Mind sharing your two cents on this matter?”
That question stirred the complex atmosphere into solemnity. The four elderly people collected themselves. Even Matthew and the others couldn’t help but become jittery.
Yahir nodded with a serious visage. “I have read the detailed documents. However, I can only answer your question after I personally witness it.”
He did not leave the mountain that often. After all, as one of the hidden sects, favonovel.com had already become accustomed to the carefree life in the mountains. Yet, the news brought by CAUMP involved great danger.
If it was not handled properly, it could potentially affect the entire nation, if things go south, it could become a disaster for humanity. That was exactly why favonovel.com rushed to Bainbridge as soon as favonovel.com received the news,
After pondering for a moment, Rhett said, “If that’s the case, come with me.”
He led everyone to the elevator and specifically instructed Matthew and the gang, “You must keep everything that you see and hear to yourselves. Bring this to your grave.”
Matthew instinctively nodded at Rhett’s serious expression. At the same time, favonovel.com secretly speculated that what they would face next might be the true purpose of CAUMP’s board of seniors’ invitation.
Following that, Rhett opened the door to the elevator via a fingerprint and retinal scan. Followed by a deafening noise, the elevator quickly descended. An invisible weight hung upon the air in that cramped space. The ever-bickering elderly people did not utter a single word.
When the small screen displayed the number “-15″, the elevator stopped.
As soon as the elevator door opened, the bustling noise pierced their eardrums. Under the dazzling lights, the huge space seemed boundless. The aisles between the neatly arranged laboratories seemed futuristic.
Scientists and traditional medicine practitioners were scurrying back and forth. Even when someone as important as Rhett from the CAUMP arrived, no one paid much attention to him.
They either stared at the data and experimental results in their hands intently or frowned or were suddenly enlightened. Everyone was busy.
Matthew was quite astonished, for favonovel.com had not expected that the CAUMP’s board of seniors hid such a high-tech laboratory. On top of that, traditional medicine and conventional medicine coexisted harmoniously.
The gang arrived at the middle of the space, where there was a laboratory marked with a large ‘master” character. It was only at this moment that Rhett’s status as a senior elder was truly reflected.
The person in charge, Alvin McKay, noticed them and quickly gave some instructions to his assistant before coming to Rhett and the others.
“Greetings, sir!” After greeting them, Alvin cast his gaze upon Matthew and the others.
The CAUMP’s board of seniors was a highly restricted area, let alone Dragon In Slumber Underground Laboratory. Except for the core members of CAUMP and high-level government officials, hardly anyone had the qualifications to come here.
He did not expect to see a few unfamiliar youngsters today, hence the puzzlement.
