During this period, Eric, Sylvia, Andy, and several Innova executives received numerous phone calls. Some were from various regions within the country inquiring about the availability of the vaccine, while others were from pharmaceutical companies wanting to collaborate with the Innova Group.

However, most of the calls came from abroad, including some from foreign embassies, all desperately requesting the vaccine. Its efficacy had been confirmed, with successful cases at King City Airport.

Everyone wanted to survive. But all those calls were rejected.

The priority was to meet the strategic deployment of the Combat Department. They didn't even have enough for themselves, so how could they supply others? It didn't make sense.

The production capacity was there, but the supply of raw materials was insufficient, and production could not be ramped up. Besides, the additional production lines were funded by the Combat Department, so the Innova Group couldn't make major decisions about the

    The Locke brothers continued with their patrols. Due to the recent sighting of suspicious individuals, they had heightened their vigilance. That evening, the brothers were patrolling as usual. At the location of Camera #3, they spotted some sneaky figures again."Who's there?" Vince shouted, raising his flashlight as he gave chase.When they arrived, they saw that the electric fence had been cut, suggesting an attempt to infiltrate."Chase them!" Matthew grabbed his walkie-talkie. "Control room, we have a situation at Camera #3. Requesting backup! Requesting backup!"The production base was a fortress. Who could possibly get in? With hourly patrols, there was hardly any chance for intruders.As Matthew and Vince pursued, the Combat Department personnel stationed there also came to assist. Since the area was in the suburbs, a forest surrounded the factory, making the chase somewhat difficult.-Eric received the news.Initially, Sylvia had prepared a nurse's outfit for the eve

    The Locke brothers were startled.Matthew said, "Sir, isn't this a bit too much? We still haven't found out who is behind them."Eric glanced at the three captives. "There's no need to ask. They're from the Luminous. What's surprising is that even in this environment, the Luminous managed to send people over."This organization wants to take down our production base. I believe the virus outbreak we're dealing with now is their doing."Although they had long suspected this, neither Eric nor Pierce had concrete evidence.Besides, the Luminous headquarters was far away in Haevon. They didn’t start the virus outbreak domestically, so even if one had proof, it would be difficult to deal with the Luminous.This was truly frustrating.Even without their confession, Eric could find relevant clues. But the immediate problem remained. With most flights grounded and these three having no identities, how did they get to Salt City?It was incomprehensible!Neither Eric nor the Combat Depar

    When this topic came up, Sam was infuriated. The last time Frontier Tech poached his employees, it led to a betrayal, and he nearly got killed. His hatred for Frontier Tech ran deep. But regardless of his hatred, he still needed to stay informed. Frontier Tech's chip technology plans were aimed at the entire chip market.With a sigh, Sam said, "With billions of dollars injected, their arrogance is through the roof! But arrogance aside, this company is quite powerful."I’ve reviewed several of their recent patents, and they don’t overlap much with ours, which indicates their strong research capabilities."They’re formidable opponents, but some of their methods are downright dirty!"Eric nodded repeatedly. "Alright, this matter will trouble you a bit. Please visit Frontier Tech more often to find out when their overseas team will come next."Sam didn't understand why Eric wanted him to investigate this, but since the boss had instructed it, he had to comply.Little did he know, E

    Themos laughed. "Mr. Hampton is right! Let's all get rich together!"Sam smiled broadly. "That's the spirit, Mr. Ford By the way, didn't you receive some foreign investment? We could totally share the technology part of it."Next time they come over, could you introduce me? After all, we are in the same industry."It would be great to exchange ideas and maybe even unify our pricing, right?"Themos was bewildered. 'Introduce Sam to the top three international manufacturers? Hasn't Sam realized that the Innova Group's biggest competitors are these very manufacturers? What is he up to?'Themos couldn't figure it out. Even after Sam left, he was still puzzled. It just didn't make sense.-Meanwhile, Eric and Sylvia had just finished their passionate 'session'."Again?" Eric asked, still wanting more. "I want a second round."Sylvia, panting heavily, said, "No more, no more. If you still have energy, go find Lora or even Ruth. I can't handle it anymore!"Eric was exasperated. 'Thi

    Amelia's complaints didn't have much impact. Yvette's arrival had been entirely due to luck, and it seemed like the timing for Eric and Sylvia's second child just wasn't right yet.The couple was not in a hurry. Though they wanted a son, they accepted that if it didn't happen, there was nothing they could do about it.With the rampant virus currently spreading, Sylvia and Eric were hesitant about having another child. Bringing a child into such a dangerous world didn't make sense.Sylvia and Eric were also very busy. After Michael's return, most of the overseas business was halted, and no further expansion was possible.The reduction in business meant a significant drop in income for employees in the overseas markets, so they had to figure out how to compensate them. That's just how things were.When employees' incomes were high, their spending rose accordingly. A sudden decrease in income would undoubtedly cause them great distress.To maintain support, Sylvia and Eric had to us

    Even the security guards were reluctant to leave their jobs easily.Take Jacob, for example. He considered this job so promising that he wanted to do it for a lifetime.Instead of struggling in other companies, he preferred to relax at the Innova Group.After all, standing guard at the gate didn’t require any technical skills.With a laugh, Sam said, "You see, due to the foreign virus, many companies have cut back on personnel expenses. We also had plans to do the same, but it remained just a plan."Later, the head office issued a statement. Not only did we not cut back, but we even increased the budget slightly."Themos is being unreasonable about this. He says that while everyone else is cutting personnel costs, we’re increasing ours, putting them in a bad light."I heard he even formed a union to come after us!"The Innova Group's high spending on employees had always been criticized by other companies.Over the years, the Innova Group's provided salaries and benefits becam

    The workers' conference was impressively grand. Salt City had suddenly become a benchmark!While there had been workers' representative conferences in the past, they were limited to certain larger companies or specific localities. But a nationwide one? That was unheard of until now.Some workers were moved to tears. They were finally going to join the employer ranks! At last, someone was considering their perspective and taking their side. They had waited so long for this day.-Morning came.Eric and Sylvia went to work as usual. Within the the Innova Group, no one even mentioned the conference, despite its grand scale. There was no discussion of the workers' representative conference among any of the employees.The Innova Group's treatment of its employees was already exceptionally high, both domestically and internationally. The purpose of a workers' representative conference was to improve employee conditions, but this was not an issue at the Innova Group.In fact, the Innov

    Was it even possible that this idea came from the union?When Themos organized this qualifying conference, it wasn't to improve the wages and benefits of workers nationwide. Frontier Tech itself was already cutting back on personnel expenses. Yet, he quickly became the national representative for workers. At least, the title sounded somewhat intimidating.Many things often hid secrets unknown to the public. Take the workers' conference organized by Themos, for instance. Outwardly, it was promoted as being for the welfare of workers, to fight for their deserved rights. But who really knew the true purpose?No matter what, Themos certainly gained both fame and fortune. In the future, when people mentioned this event, they would likely regard Themos as a pioneer. When Donald finished speaking, thunderous applause followed.Many representatives were excited. Themos was a prominent figure in the domestic chip industry, with the backing of Salt City's mayor. The workers' future looked

    In terms of innate talent, Eric was unparalleled, having reached the pinnacle of martial arts. With a single punch, he sent the 'God' flying."Good!" Stealthbane shouted with excitement.The ultimate enemy had finally been defeated, bringing peace to the world. Eric sighed in relief.However, in the next moment, the 'God' stood up again. Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he revealed a bloodthirsty smile. "You have successfully enraged me!"Everyone braced for a potential massacre, but instead, the enemy turned and fled.Could Eric let him escape?"Chase him!" Stealthbane commanded.Allowing this foe to escape would spell endless trouble.A group of people pursued the enemy, who soon reappeared clad in iron armor."Not seen this before, have you?" The 'God' seemed to have recovered somewhat. "Did you think I only research viruses? Wrong!

    The sturdy floor lay in utter disarray.In desperation, Ruth shouted, "Eric, don't give him any more chances! Finish him off swiftly, or we'll face endless trouble!"Eric was well aware of this logic. As he fought, he said, "He's incredibly strong. Taking him down quickly isn't possible! We must fight to the death!"Eric had never feared battle. Besides, this might very well be his final fight.Their fists clashed fiercely.The 'God' also noticed that Eric was growing more formidable as the battle progressed."How do you have so much strength? Wouldn't it be better if we joined forces to control the world? We could have anything we desire!"All the world's wealth, women, and resources would be ours to enjoy. Why won't you listen to reason?" he roared.Eric's momentum didn't falter. "I don't share your grand ambitions. I just want a simple life with a job that pays 1,000 dollars a month and a warm home with my wife and kids. But you, you've disturbed my peace!"The 'God' was fu

    The 'God' grew more courageous as the battle raged on, causing Stealthbane to worry incessantly.In another high-stakes clash, Eric and his opponent both retreated. Eric sensed his opponent's growing strength, finding it rather peculiar.The 'God' clenched his fist. "I must thank you! My techniques were slightly incomplete, but I've managed to fill the gaps through this battle!"Eric marveled at his opponent's genius. To mend something incomplete was indeed a rare talent.Despite Eric training with the complete manual, he could only match the 'God' blow for blow. This person was terrifying!The opponent's confidence soared. Although Eric had trained with the full manual, the 'God' felt his innate talent far surpassed Eric's. If he could match Eric with an incomplete manual, now that he had perfected it, wouldn't he be unbeatable?"I thought you had potential and considered inviting you to share this world with me," the 'God' said, his tone turning icy. "But now, I see it's unnece

    Stealthbane even felt that Eric might not be a match for the "God."The power was overwhelming.The terrifying aura was enough to crush everything. To an ordinary person, this was a real deity—the strength possessed had already transcended human limits.Eric made his move with a burst of speed. The clash of their fists created a thunderous explosion, and the sound was so intense that Stealthbane felt his eardrums might shatter.This was a battle of the highest caliber, one that even a legend like Stealthbane could not hope to join.Seeing the two evenly matched, Stealthbane sighed in relief. At least there was a chance that the strongest combatants were neutralizing each other. The outcome was still uncertain.Eric shook his aching fist, his expression grave. The opponent's strength was as he had anticipated. If the ultimate boss of the Luminous did not possess such combat power, it would be absurd.Clearly, this "God" had also gauged Eric's strength.He extended a hand toward

    Stealthbane knew that the figure facing them must be the ultimate leader of the Luminous.Suddenly, he no longer wanted to die. If he could hold on just a little longer, it would all be over."Mr. Johnson, these people don't seem ordinary. Could that leader be the ultimate figure of the Luminous? Are we about to complete the game?" he whispered.To him, this mission to the Ark felt like a game: defeat the final boss, and victory is achieved."If I'm not mistaken, it should be. This person gives me... a sense of danger," Eric said.Upon hearing this, Stealthbane felt reassured.Just a sense? That meant the problem wasn't too grave!The leader on the opposite side turned to Eric. "I didn't expect you to make it this far. I underestimated your strength, believing my Ark was impregnable, that no enemy could breach it. But why are you so persistent? Why such determination?"He suddenly screamed in a fit of hysteria, "I have so many people! Such a grand scheme! It has all succeeded!

    Brent shouted desperately, "After you get on your knees, they'll kill you all, and we won't survive either! Kill them! Kill them all!"He understood the situation with stark clarity. Kneeling meant certain death. If they had to die anyway, fighting back would be their only chance of survival.Eric sighed. "Mr. Rogers, in the end, it was we who implicated you. But this place must be eradicated, and the Luminous must be destroyed as well! Everyone, attack!"As the battle commenced, the masked man immediately struck Brent with a punch.Eric charged in. "Die!"He knew that Brent was unlikely to survive. This punch was his way of avenging Brent.The masked man spun around, trying to block Eric's punch. But the speed of the blow was too much—the gust of wind from the punch arrived before the fist did.It was an instant kill.The masked man had no time to react before Eric's punch collided with his chest. The terrifying force shattered the mask on the man's face, revealing an unfamili

    Stealthbane was blinded by rage. He was killing anyone in sight, his fury unrelenting. They had ventured deep into enemy territory, where every encounter seemed to be with an adversary.Eric and his team from the Combat Department showed no mercy.Yet even Stealthbane's resolve was wearing thin."I can't kill them all! It feels like every master in the world is concentrated here!" he shouted in frustration.He felt the number of people he had brought was insufficient. If he had brought a few thousand more, he might have been able to overrun the place.Stealthbane was overwhelmed by the sheer horror of their situation. Fortunately, they had arrived. If anyone else had come, they would have met their end here.The numbers of the masters seemed endless."Damn it!" Stealthbane cursed angrily. "There are too many of them, and they're all exceptionally powerful. What kind of game is this?"He was tempted to retreat, but where could he go?Eric sent an enemy flying, pushing forward

    "I was opposed to coming in from the start, but as you all know, the Rogers family is extremely complex. If we hadn't entered, I might have ended up dead. At least if the virus isn't a threat, that's something!" Brent poured himself a cup of coffee and continued. "These people are ruthless! They want to kill everyone outside the Ark and establish a new order, managed by a select few. It's insane!"You don't need to tell me—I know you're here to kill them."He then pulled a small token from his pocket. "This is our Rogers family's privilege here. It allows us to move freely between different levels. With this, you can go anywhere!"Stealthbane grabbed it eagerly. "Why didn't you mention this earlier? Things will go much smoother with this!"Brent sighed. "Once you've handled everything, could you take me out with you? I really don't want to stay in this dreadful place any longer.""Sure!" Eric nodded. "We'll definitely call you when we leave. For now, we're heading out."Brent e

    Everything was ready, but they couldn't just walk in.Ruth instructed the Combat Department to conduct a three-day intensive training for everyone, focusing on coordinated combat.-After three days, the forces led by Stealthbane moved out, first dismantling the outer defenses of the Ark. This was their specialty!A large group of several hundred arrived in front of the Ark's entrance. At first glance, it resembled a mountain.Jack scratched his head and said, "Is this the gate? I don't see any door."The Holy Templar's people arrived as well. St. Pius said, "Everyone, don't rush. Wait for two minutes. Once the gate opens, we need to get in quickly. I have other plans inside, but once we're in, it's going to be a life-or-death battle! No one should show any mercy!"Stealthbane flexed his fists and replied, "Do I look like a good guy to you? Just watch me deal with them!"No sooner had he spoken than there was a tremendous roar. The ground shook, and the door of the Ark swung
