Ethan appeared in the room he had rented in the suburban area. He looked at the door; it was still closed. The owner of the house had really kept their promise of not disturbing his busy schedule inside the room.Luckily, it was just a room in a simple house and not a room in a hotel. There were no CCTV cameras anywhere. In other words, no matter what he did,even if he used magic—nobody would know.Immediately after landing in the room, he took off the ring and placed it in his system inventory before studying the windows hovering in the air.[You have defeated a system user.

He boarded a taxi to Silvermore Automobile, which had become a landmark in Shanghai City already. Once he arrived, the security personnel greeted him and escorted him to the entrance before returning to their posts.Ethan walked inside, and all the staff were respectful and cheerful. They welcomed him as though he had been away for a long time, which left Ethan even more confused. He even had to bring out his phone and check the date. After confirming, he realized he had spent more than a week in the elf world.He heaved a sigh and put his phone back in his pocket, then strolled into the tech room where he could see his staff working on a new project.A translucent screen was projected in the middle of the room, displaying a blueprint for the car's design.The team was so focused on studying the blueprint that they failed to notice him entering the room. However, one of them suddenly turned her head toward the entrance and noticed their boss's presence.Immediately, she alerted the ot
The day at Silvermore Automobile was exciting, the new ideas the workers developed and worked on were so interesting to listen to. It made Ethan realize that hiring them was better than hiring some professionals or poaching workers from another manufacturer. In the evening, he went to a private restaurant with Shelly and Qiao Lian. After eating their fill, they visited a cinema to watch a new movie that Qiao Lian had been waiting for. It wasn't a romance movie but an action-packed sci-fi with lots of new plot ideas and character development that interested Ethan. After leaving, they retired back to the hotel where they relaxed, but Ethan was busy throughout the night. The sudden letter from George and the missiles sent at him from Morocco are most likely not a coincidence. It could be the same people doing it or the same person hiring a group of criminals to carry out the crime, just like Lawrence, who brought the wrath of the Red Cross Brothers on himself. Now, he is leaning on
Two days passed after the call with Jason and the member of the dragoon division. There had been a lot of activity going on in his office in China, but he decided not to pay too much attention to it and instead focused on safeguarding his loved ones.He met with Ryan this morning, and he gave him a list of suspicious people he had seen around the hotel so many times. He was very serious about his job; even now, he had a camera and a pen with him to jot down useful information.Ethan was pleased with Ryan's work ethic. He gave him a sum of one million yuan as a token of appreciation for his good work.He felt more at ease with someone like Ryan guarding both of them. With that weight off his shoulders, he would be able to take care of most of his duties without worrying about their safety.At the moment, a very beautiful car was speeding down the road in Shanghai, and the driver was none other than Ethan himself.As he was driving, his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller and n
Luxuria City, Silverlight Mansion.Inside one of the rooms in the hotel, a very healthy but deeply worried George Silverlight could be seen staring at a picture with sadness in his eyes.In his hand was the picture of his first son, Max Silverlight, who was killed some days ago by unknown enemies that refused to reveal their identity even after carrying out such a dubious act.George was deeply sad for the loss of his son; he had even spared his time to inform his grandson about the negative development going on in the Silverlight family, but yet, the worry in his head still did not leave."What's happening to my Silverlight family? First, there was trouble with my business almost collapsing in the hands of my lazy grandson. Now our lives are not even safe anymore," he whispered to himself, but his words were heard by his lawyer, who had been by his side ever since everything began."Master George, worrying won't solve anything. I have said it times without number for you to leave this
After getting caught peeking, Lawrence decided to play it as though he was only heading out and nothing more.George tried to warn him about the danger outside, but he paid no heed to his grandfather's advice and left.George let out a loud sigh after he left the house and returned to his seat.Ethan cleared his throat and went straight to what he wanted to say. "First of all, I would like to ask if there is anyone you suspect, like a business partner in the past that left or someone you had a disagreement with. Is there anyone like that?"George shook his head, "No one like that, to be honest, I have never made trouble with anyone. I have always craved for a peaceful living, thus I never made trouble with or for anyone. There is no one I suspect.""Have you ever suspected Lawrence?""Lawrence, he is my grandson, although very stubborn, he won't do such a thing, I know him too well.""Hmm, where was Max again before he got assassinated?""A business meet-up in Morocco.""Has that pers
Inside the army base, there were lots of activities going on: the distant cries of soldiers as they went through their daily training, several gunshots sounded at uniform intervals, and he could see so many heavy-duty military vehicles moving through the place.Ethan strolled inside; most of the soldiers recognized him because he had been in this place in the past, although it was only for a few days. However, in just those two days, he was able to make some soldiers move from their ranks, giving them new abilities like hacking, precise aim, and many more.In fact, he had his own small division, and the government even agreed to that. Not even the boss of the military in Luxuria was able to stop him.They bowed and greeted him as he made his way towards a special camp with the insignia of a dragon. Behind the dragon was a very large skull and three guns designed in that art.It was the Dragoon division.Someone walked out of the Dragoon division holding a small device that almost appe
Ethan ended the call with Jason and fell into a moment of deep thought for a few seconds, after just a few seconds. His mind had come up with an idea to solve this without implicating himself too much.He scanned the area, and there was no one nearby. Then he quickly closed the distance between himself and the spot he was suspicious of. He wore hand gloves and dug his hand into the strong ground, which was almost as hard as rock.With just sheer strength, his hands were able to till the ground open. It first created a spiderweb-like crack that widened, and soon the soil underneath became really simple to dig out.In the span of two seconds, he was able to dig out something from the ground.It was a body. Ethan quickly observed this body's angel eyes and discovered that the person was just a few seconds close to death.Ethan grabbed the body and leapt back into the concealed area."Anybody there?" Someone called out from a small office a little bit closer to where Ethan was hiding the
