"Don’t worry about that. Just recall your people first. I’m also planning to take a trip to Antarctica."
"Alright, got it! Willy, thanks for your help. By the way, any updates on the weapon repair?"
"Still in progress. Not sure if it can be fixed yet. You worry too much—at your age, you should be taking care of your health."
"Hmph. A few more years and I’ll be retired. Anyway, wait for my update at 6 PM tonight."
"Sounds good!"
Just as Willy hung up, Abigail raised an eyebrow.
"Bro, you’re so funny. Calling him Big Shot—what, are you working for some government leaders or something?"
Her joking tone made Willy, Maverick, and Wione freeze for a second, then they all turned to look at her.
"Wait… no way… I was right?!" Abigail’s eyes widened. Her brother was actually involved with p

"Amazing! They can switch between different breathing modes on their own?""Of course! Both they and we Reptilians are native species of Earth. However, their alertness is much stronger than ours! But when it comes to detecting danger, they fall short. Maybe it’s because they’ve lived in the ocean for too long, or maybe it’s because the ocean is too vast and deep. Sound waves and sonar signals travel differently in water than they do in air.""How many mermaids exist?""Willy, are you asking about the number of their species, or their total population?""Both!""The mermaid race is divided into three types."The first type is ordinary mermaids, the most common. These are the ones I described earlier—human-sized, egg-laying, and capable of thriving in the ocean."The second type is warrior mermaids. These are massive, with huge tails and razor-sharp dorsal fins. Even their forearms have fins that function as wea

"Willy, are we moving out?" One of the invisible Reptilians spoke, snapping Willy out of his thoughts."Ah! Yes, let’s go. There are six targets, and here are their coordinates, photos, and locations. How do you guys memorize this information?""We only need one glance. Reptilians have perfect memory!""And the other five…?""I’ll explain it to them. Oh, Willy, once we capture these six, where should we deliver them?""Bring them here—to this location!" Willy sent the coordinates. "I’ll be waiting there.""No problem! Based on these locations, we should be done quickly. Just wait here!""Alright, be careful. Stay hidden, don’t get caught!""Don’t worry, Willy. Once we go invisible, we don’t leave a trace.""How are you going to transport them back?""With this." One of the Reptilians pulled out a strange-looking flower."…What the hell is that?"

Willy stayed up late into the night, guessing that Big Shot had probably wrapped up the negotiations. He sent a quick message."Big Shot, how did it go?""Heh, kid, are you spying on me?""Spying? Not at all.""Not at all? Then why is your timing so damn perfect? I just finished forcing them to sign a series of highly unfavorable agreements, and I even recorded the whole thing. There’s no way they can deny it.""Oh? Tell me the details, Big Shot.""I had my men wake them up with water. At first, they put on an act, trying to talk about international law and regulations. So, I gave them a little tour—had them take a look at some ancient NVMD torture devices. I was just about to let them try them out personally, and before I knew it, they were scrambling to sign the agreements. It happened so fast, I didn’t even get to react."I added a few extra conditions on top of our original agreement. I doubt they’ll dare b

"Alright then." Willy figured it was about time to start searching for mermaids in the ocean. Maybe he’d make some unexpected discoveries—after all, the ocean was vast, filled with hidden treasures and secrets that no one knew about.Meanwhile, Logan had successfully repaired the Divine Beam Cannon, which Willy then returned to Big Shot. He made sure to warn him clearly this time—do not let those scientists mess with it again.Big Shot, having learned his lesson, assured Willy that he wouldn’t make the same mistake twice. He also provided potential factory locations for Willy Manufacturing’s expansion, leaving the final decision up to Willy. Once he made up his mind, he could just contact Big Shot’s secretary to get things moving.But for now, the ocean’s secrets were calling to him. Once he wrapped up some final tasks and made sure Violet was settled, he’d set off.That afternoon, while Willy was in his off

For nearly half an hour, the warrior mermaids systematically hunted the tuna, leaving only a group of plump, pregnant fish.Willy was surprised.They actually know not to hunt pregnant females?This meant that mermaids understood sustainable hunting—an advanced ecological principle that even many human societies failed to follow.Fascinating.Silently, he trailed the mermaid group, adjusting his swimming speed to remain unnoticed.Suddenly, the leader of the group—an enormous, big-headed mermaid—seemed to sense something.With a swift motion, the warrior mermaids scattered, spreading out to search the area.Willy remained hidden on the ocean floor, making no movements.After a while, the mermaids found nothing suspicious and resumed their journey home.This time, Willy followed carefully, tracking them back to what humans had once called the lost city of Atlantis—the merma

"Do you have any other questions? What exactly is your purpose for coming here?""I'm really just curious! By the way, do your mermaids engage in trade? I don’t know if you have any unused items that we could exchange.""Trade?" The mermaid chief seemed to ponder for a moment. "We have many seashells, pearls, and various medicinal herbs from the ocean. But nothing else.""What do your people want in return?""Human fruit!""Fruit? What kind of fruit? Do you mean actual fruit, or something else?""Sometimes, humans throw edible things into the ocean, and we love them. They're soft, and after being soaked in water for a while, they break apart. I think you call them bread. We also like various vegetables, fruits, and corn. We actually need these things, but we can only get them by sneaking ashore to steal them sometimes...""Heh, stealing, huh?""Yes! We can't let humans see us. If they do, they capture us and eat us!"

Who are we still waiting for?" Owen grumbled, wiping sweat from his forehead. "It’s too hot out here!""There’s one more guest. I promised him he’d be on the first official flight.""He must be pretty important if you're making us all wait," Tian commented."You’ll know when you see him.""Do I know him?""Yeah, we all do."A few minutes later, a military convoy slowly approached the entra

"Willy! This spacecraft is way too fast!" As everyone marveled at the stunning scenery, Big Shot’s first reaction was to focus on the speed. "This is how fast a spacecraft is supposed to be," Willy finally admitted openly. "So what about our military models?" "Big Shot, those can’t be this fast! You wanted combat-ready crafts. If I set their speed to match this one, you wouldn’t even be able to operate them in battle! By the time you fire a shot, you’d already be out of range—maybe even back in NVMD before realizing it." Big Shot thought for a moment and nodded. Willy had a point. There was no use in questioning it further, so he simply leaned back and enjoyed the view with his wife. Seeing that Big Shot had dropped the subject, Willy relaxed. He picked up the intercom. "Everyone, please remain seated. Next, we’ll be taking a tour of our beautiful Earth." He slowly maneuvered the spacecraft until it

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.

"Alright, Willy, you've been working hard lately, thank you!""Big Shot, there's no need to thank me, I have my own motives too, haha! People always say wealth doesn't last three generations, and while I'm confident in my son, I'm not so sure about my grandson. So, I’ll just give it my all!""Wow, you're in your twenties and already thinking about your grandkids? Your foresight is way ahead of its time!""Enough of that. Big Shot, I saw some news recently. It seems like the alliances from Y country are starting to team up and stir trouble?""Yes, since you made your debut, NVMD has been growing bigger and more stable, leaving them far behind. Now they're trying to unite and sanction us!""Sanction us? Looks like I’m included in that too!""Haha, you think you can run from this? I’m giving you a heads up, they might come for you soon.""They’re brave. Who gave them the courage? Was it Liang Jingru?""Who?

Duresha angrily watched as her fiery sword, powered by her shifting abilities, was destroyed by a series of explosions. She tried to react, but before she could even comprehend the situation, a series of blinding light points came at her with lightning speed, striking her down."No!!!" Duresha screamed as Willy's Precision Light Gun hit her repeatedly. Each shot caused an explosion upon impact, and she was blasted to pieces by the force.Willy stood in shock, bewildered by what had just happened. He had been battling the fiery sword, and somehow, in the midst of it all, he had accidentally killed Duresha."Hehehe, young one, the fates have their way," a deep, ancient voice echoed through the universe, sending a chill down Willy's spine. The moment he heard it, every fiber of his being—his blood, his flesh, even his very soul—trembled."Who... Who is speaking?" Willy asked, his voice filled with fear."It’s me, child. Do not be afr

However, she had no concrete leads and could only seek the help of Creation Sovereign.More importantly, Duresha had once lost her chance for an Esper rank promotion. This meeting with Creation Sovereign was her last chance. If Creation Sovereign could show her mercy, she might still be able to ascend to level four."Duresha, Creation Sovereign will see you in three days.

Her two companions had been assigned to guard the exile planet Earth, located at the edge of the universe, in the solar system. For years, everything had been fine, but recently, both of her companions had mysteriously disappeared. Duresha had a sinking feeling that something was terribly wrong. She was certain that they were both dead.However, with no leads to follow, she had no choice but to seek Creation Sovereign’s help. More importantly, Duresha had lost her chance to advance in her Esper rank, and this meeting with Creation Sovereign represented her last opportunity.
