2025-03-11 12:00:17Everyone had been working non-stop, and by 9:10 PM, no one had even eaten yet.
Willy, feeling starved, found Lucas and grabbed some pre-packaged food, stuffing a bite into his mouth as he settled into position in front of the Divine Beam Cannon, counting down the time.
At 9:25 PM, astronomers monitoring the telescope confirmed the asteroid had entered the Milky Way!
“Willy, do we fire now?” Big Shot was getting anxious. On the massive computer screen, Big Shots from other countries, along with countless live-stream viewers, were bombarding them with questions.
For the first time, Willy felt the weight of the entire world watching him.
“Give me the coordinates! Speed report!”
“Mr. Morgan! The asteroid is currently traveling at 23 kilometers per second, and it’s accelerating! That’s… unusual!”
Willy locked in the coordinates, said a quick prayer in his mind, then suddenly shouted:

"System! How do you know that a psychic being has arrived on Earth?""The system has detected it. The target poses an extremely high threat level. I recommend that the host take full defensive measures. Additionally, I strongly suggest engaging in battle outside Earth's atmosphere!""Ding! The system has detected that the psychic being is searching for the Divine Beam Cannon that was provided to the host. Please be on high alert!"The system's repeated warnings made Willy suspicious. Why had this psychic being suddenly reappeared near Earth's outer perimeter? And why was it specifically targeting the weapon that the system had provided to him? It seemed like these psychic beings had been monitoring Earth all along. If that was the case, then their real purpose for coming here this time must be his weapon.That raised another possibility—if Willy hadn't destroyed the asteroid, these psychic beings might have intervened to protect Earth. But why? What

This time, Willy had learned his lesson. He knew that the system-provided battle armor would protect him. Since his safety was no longer a concern, he decided to focus on extracting as much information as possible from the psychic being in front of him—or better yet, keeping him here permanently.Kantibi launched another punch, this one even more terrifying than before. The sheer force was overwhelming, as if the entire cosmos was howling in fear. Willy could almost hear the air tearing apart as the fist rocketed toward him. The speed was astonishing, and the power behind it was beyond comprehension.Yet—just like before—Willy blocked it effortlessly.A bright aura surrounded him, and Kantibi’s fist stopped dead in its tracks."This… this is impossible! No way! NO WAY!" Kantibi roared in disbelief.Taking advantage of the moment, Willy drew his Precision Light Saber, adjusting the blade to 70 centimeters, and slashed

"Boss, what exactly happened last night? And where’s your spacecraft?" Levi asked."My spacecraft got blown up! What happened last night is too complicated to explain in a few words. Levi, this spacecraft is identical to mine, right? Let me take it. In the morning, head to Willy Manufacturing in New York, get yourself another one, and then fly back to Washington, alright?""Understood, boss!"The two landed on Willy’s rooftop garden and quickly stored the spacecraft into the system’s storage. Willy arranged for Levi to rest in one of the guest rooms before he quietly slipped into his own bedroom.Violet was fast asleep, completely undisturbed, as if she hadn’t woken up all night.Relieved, Willy climbed into bed. After an entire night of battle and extreme physical exhaustion, he knocked out instantly and slept all the way until the afternoon.After freshening up, he checked in on Charles and then headed downstairs, a

"Paul, all four of you have outstanding abilities. Your skills and expertise are impressive, and I have high expectations for each of you. Last night, I was thinking—since my business empire has already expanded this much, and it will only grow bigger in the future, why not start training you now? So, I’ve decided to hire all four of you. Congratulations!""Thank you for your recognition, Boss! We will lead by example and always maintain our best working condition!" Paul responded."Don’t be too formal. While working for me, I allow mistakes. I allow errors. But I will never tolerate deception or concealment. Understood?""Understood!""Good. Logan, they’re in your hands now. Get them up to speed with their responsibilities as soon as possible. I need to head to the base.""Yes, Boss! You go ahead!"Logan led the four new hires away, but just before leaving, Willy noticed Paul smirking at him. There was something abou

"Alright, alright! I’ll shut up! I won’t say another word!" Willy fell silent, staring at the ruined Divine Beam Cannon with regret, but at the same time, he secretly started a conversation with the system in his mind."Host, this can actually be repaired. When I issued this weapon to you, it came with a manual. You can follow the instructions and attempt to fix it.""I know that. But I don’t want to fix it. Every time I bring out one of your high-tech weapons, these people mess it up beyond recognition. Didn’t they learn anything from the engine explosion on my last spacecraft? And now they’ve taken apart my superweapon! This is ridiculous!""Heh, Big Shot and his people just want their territory to become stronger. When they saw the Divine Beam Cannon, they naturally wanted to understand its mechanics so they could mass-produce it.""This kind of weapon is better off not existing. Its destructive power is too immense. If th

"Heh, you little punk. Are you asking because you’ve discovered something?""Not exactly! Big Shot, why don’t you tell me what you know first?""I don’t have much firsthand knowledge, but the previous Big Shot told me this—back in the last century, there were sightings of mermaids in various ocean currents, especially in the Atlantic. The number of confirmed sightings was very low, and most of the captured mermaids managed to escape. The only one successfully captured was sent to A Country’s research lab, but a few days later, everyone in that lab mysteriously died, as if wiped out by some kind of virus. Since then, mermaid sightings have become even rarer. Since you’ve met the Reptilians, I assume you’d believe in the existence of mermaids too?""Whoa, wait… are we talking about Atlantis? The legendary civilization? I remember reading online that they were descendants of sea gods!""Sea gods? Bah! That&rsq

"Oh wow, Babe, since when did you start caring so much about Paul?""Shut up! I don’t care about him. I’m just worried he might embarrass us. After all, I am incredibly capable—managing such a massive company like Willy Environmental at a young age. If someone like him, who went to school with me, turns out to be useless, it makes me look bad too!" Violet said matter-of-factly.Willy widened his eyes, staring at Violet from head to toe, then back up again."Why are you looking at me like that?""Haha! I’m just realizing that your shamelessness is finally on par with mine!""What do you mean shameless?! I’m just speaking the truth! It’s a fact!""Sure, sure, it’s the truth. Alright, let’s talk about your dear classmate.""Go on. If he’s not doing well, just send him home. I don’t care," Violet said casually."His work is excellent. Honestly, I think he might be better t

"Wish granted!" Willy tossed his wish into the system’s wishing panel."Ding! Wish successfully made! Please wait until the day your Babe gives birth to witness the results! System refreshing, please wait."Willy’s wish was simple—he hoped Violet would give birth to a healthy pair of fraternal twins.With that weight off his shoulders, Willy happily arrived at his company. But the moment he saw Paul, his body tensed up.This wasn’t the kind of nervousness one felt before an exam or a life-changing event. No, this was something more primal—the kind of unease that came from natural predator-prey instincts.That’s when Willy fully realized—Paul’s feelings toward him weren’t just admiration."Boss! Would you like coffee today?""No, no, I’m good. You go ahead and get back to work. No need to stand around waiting for my orders.""Heh, of course, Boss!

After hearing Willy's words, Violet was a little puzzled. "Dear, Charles is only a little over a year old, what could you possibly teach him? He’s already very smart!""Heh, that's exactly why I want to start training him now. He's smart enough for it," Willy said with a smile. "Don't worry, just go prepare. I have other things to take care of."The moment Willy left the house, the system notified him that someone was watching his home from a distant high-rise building. Willy wasn't in a rush; he knew from Charles’s system that the person would make their move at night, so he still had plenty of time to take care of his business during the day.Upon arriving at the company, Willy opened his emails and casually skimmed through them. He suddenly noticed several messages from special accounts belo

“What are they emailing you about? Asking for peace?”“Part of it is for peace, but mostly they’re explaining. They say they were forced into this situation, but I don’t care. They’re all in the same boat. If they’re going to suffer, let them suffer together! When they teamed up against us years ago, why didn’t they admit they were forced into it? Now that we’ve turned the tables, they’re saying they were coerced. It’s ridiculous!”“So, dear, will you forgive them? What are you planning to do?”“Everything will go through the international court. There’s no forgiveness. I’ve never held a grudge against them; I just find their actions despicable! They thought that by targeting my companies in the EU, they could force me to back down. They really underestimated me!”“Ha, it’s like they’ve shot themselves in the foot.”&l

"What are we supposed to do now?" The Big Shot from Y country was somewhat surprised upon hearing F country speak."Since we can’t win and we can’t let things get worse, the EU needs help and resources from Willy's company, so we’ll have to apologize. That’s the only option I have.""I disagree! What is this? We were about to succeed, why give up now?""Y country, are you stupid? Can’t you see the facts? You think you were about to succeed? You’re about to destroy yourselves! Yesterday, the four major families and Willy blocked you from all your stock indices, investments, imports and exports, insurance, and pharmaceuticals.

So, Mr. Morgan, how do you plan to handle the companies and employees you currently have in the EU?""Companies like Willy Environmental and Willy Pharmaceuticals are in a very critical situation right now. All the EU countries and regions have invalidated our legally valid documents and replaced them with other approval channels. The purpose is to prevent my companies from passing the review, resulting in business shutdowns. In a place with no integrity, no action, and no concern for the people, I’ve given a direct order to shut down all our companies. The local employees are to be dismissed immediately. There's no other way.""Mr. Morgan, are you considering compensation for your employees?""This reporter, as for compensation, I believe local employees should file lawsuits against their respective
447: We Can't Surrender So Easily
The situation had escalated quickly. Once the live broadcast was over, Willy’s defiant stance had sent a clear message: he wasn’t going to back down. It became evident to the EU that both Willy and NVMD were not ones to be easily dismissed.In response, the smaller EU member states began to panic. They knew that Willy’s economic power could easily crush any small nation, but they also understood the heavy weight behind him — the Four Great Families, NVMD, and now even A Country and G Country were backing him. These small nations felt increasingly powerless. If the entire world rallied behind Willy, how could they possibly stand up against such overwhelming forces?“Y Country, did you see that? We can’t target him anymore! Just a simple test, and we already know how powerful his background is. His technology and weapons, we can’t even handle them! We might as well bow down to him,” Portugal’s representative suggested
446: Global Live Interview
The decision by the NVMD Big Shot effectively crushed the already fragile factions within the EU. Dozens of people were online, discussing how to respond to Willy’s company’s announcement. While they were still figuring out a plan, NVMD's official statement about the unilateral supply cut to the EU was already released.Not long after NVMD's news broke, A Country also issued a statement, condemning the EU's actions and announcing their strong sanctions and protests.Upon seeing A Country's statement, NVMD's Big Shot was satisfied. He had personally helped push this young figure up the ranks, and now he was stepping up in a critical moment.Meanwhile, J Country’s representative, unsure of how to respond, simply announced that they were injured again and would be returning home to recover.The EU members were stunned. They had thought they could sanction Willy's company and NVMD because they had more allies, but now A Country had sided wit

"Yes, it's true, Willy. Do you remember the doctor who treated my grandfather the day he was cured? After you suggested that my grandfather's illness might have been man-made, the doctor seemed to go crazy. That’s when I suspected something was wrong and had him taken away and interrogated. It turns out that the four major families have enough wealth and power to control everything. These people can’t directly affect our economy, so they resorted to other methods to harm us. My grandfather was one victim, and Betty’s mother was another. She was poisoned during a vacation and aged rapidly overnight. After that, she disappeared from public view. That’s why, at the auction, Betty was so desperate to buy the purple fruit—it was her only way of leaving in a hurry!""Unbelievable!!""Willy, you need to be careful because most of your companies are in NVMD, and you have the Big Shot behind you. You won’t suffer any immediate setbacks, but t
444: Sanctioned
After reviewing all the emails and quickly tallying up the numbers, Willy found that many of his companies in Europe were already facing severe sanctions. Channels had been severed, and nearly every company's accounts had been frozen. He conducted a quick check—postal services, aviation, pharmaceuticals, environmental protection, investments, and securities—all the major sectors, including companies with a market value close to ten trillion, had been sanctioned.Willy wasn’t in a hurry. This was just the beginning. He had plenty of time to play.Seeing Violet still working with the calculator, Willy casually listed all the companies in his industry and their connections on a piece of paper, before making a phone call. "If they want to play sanctions, let’s play. Let’s see who can outplay whom.""Logan, all of Willy's companies in the EU have been sanctioned. From now on, I’m pulling all Willy's companies out of Europe. Willy E

Perhaps it had been a long time since Willy last saw Paul, or perhaps it was because Willy still wore a suit during his encounter with Tian that had left Paul feeling vulnerable.Paul, holding a stack of files, walked up to Willy. At that moment, Violet, carrying a cup of coffee, walked to the door of Willy’s office. What happened next caused Violet’s blood to boil!"Boss, these files need your urgent attention. These three are the recent Galaxy Chips approval documents and reports. These others are the performance analysis reports for the first half of the year, and these are the import-export statements, all needing your signature!"Willy, who had been focused on his computer, didn’t respond immediately. He simply pointed to the desk, signaling Paul to place the documents there.Paul laid out the files that needed signatures in front of Willy and handed him a pen, urging him to sign.
