Perceiving an outsider's interference, the assistant swiftly positioned himself before Slon Sono, his demeanor haughty and intimidating. "Who do you think you are, meddling in our affairs? Do you have any idea who we are? While you're still blissfully ignorant, I suggest you make yourself scarce. The further, the better.""Oh, I'm well aware of who you are," Evan replied, a hint of amusement playing at the corners of his mouth. "You're Slon Sono's crew, aren't you? Your status in Nikrosia is surpassed only by Miyazaki and Shinkai."Slon Sono exhaled forcefully through his nostrils. "If you know, then scram!"Evan snapped his fingers, his gaze penetrating and composed. "I not only know who you are, but I also know where the production funds have gone. Moreover, I understand why you've butchered the script, transforming what could have been a cinematic gem into utter drivel."Slon Sono and his assistant exchanged uneasy glances, regarding the nonchalant young man with a mixture of suspi
"How dare you speak thus? Have you no artistic integrity?""You commit such egregious acts, and when called out, you resort to insults? What gives you that right?""Apologize! You must apologize immediately!"Daisy, too, was incensed, her prominent chest heaving with anger. "How dare you use such vulgar language? Do international directors of your supposed caliber not fear tarnishing their reputations?""Alas," Evan sighed heavily, adopting a world-weary tone. "I had hoped that by revealing your misdeeds, you might see the error of your ways. But your obstinance knows no bounds. Perhaps you truly believe I'm powerless without concrete evidence?"With that, he casually withdrew his phone, fingers dancing across the screen in an seemingly offhand manner.Observing Evan's actions, Sono and his assistant felt a surge of indignation. They fixed him with icy stares."Oh? Summoning reinforcements to rough us up, are we? Let us remind you, physical assault is a crime in Elysia. Moreover, even
No sooner had he departed than a young man with golden hair and piercing blue eyes emerged from a distant copse. Clutching a smartphone, he gave chase, hot on Evan's heels.Despite his determination, the pursuer soon lost sight of his quarry. Barely five minutes into the chase, Evan's figure vanished from the deserted trail.The young man halted at the edge of a pond, panting heavily, his teeth clenched in frustration."Damn it! Where did that bastard disappear to?" he growled between gasps. "If I'd known he was this quick, I'd have exchanged for a flying device from the tech world in the Multiverse Mall App on my phone!"Just then, a voice, soft as a whisper yet potent as thunder, resonated near the young man's ear: "Are you looking for me?"The sound, though seemingly gentle, packed a tremendous punch. It not only set the young man's eardrums ringing but also stirred ripples across the pond's placid surface.The youth clasped his hands over his ears, instinctively stumbling back thr
Hadn't Hollywood always preached that there could only be one protagonist? Surely, in reality, there could only be one with superpowers—the absolute protagonist, himself!"Have I struck a nerve? Perhaps even kindled a desire to end my life?" Evan's gaze suddenly grew distant."Impossible... can he read my murderous intent?" The foreign youth, ensconced in his Iron Man suit, was taken aback, his brow furrowing deeply.Yet, he remained undaunted.For in his confrontation with this Elysian youth, he harbored unwavering confidence.He had procured numerous formidable items from the Multiverse Mall, the Iron Man suit being merely one among many.This Elysian youth exuded no discernible aura, likely having gleaned only rudimentary skills from some low-level martial world. Dealing with him using the arsenal acquired from the Multiverse Mall would be child's play."If you wish to end me, don't hesitate. Make your move," Evan maintained his composure, unperturbed.After a brief pause, he conti
Using this app, he had acquired numerous extraordinary items, successfully elevating himself from obscurity to prominence.Upon achieving this reversal of fortune, a notion had taken root in his mind—he believed himself to be the chosen one.Moreover, he felt that while shouldering the responsibility of maintaining world peace, he was entitled to enjoy the privileges that came with his newfound abilities. These privileges encompassed material wealth and the company of beautiful women. Gradually, his moral compass had warped, leading him to a point where he sought only to indulge in these privileges without bearing any of the accompanying responsibilities.Evan glanced at the phone screen, where the Multiverse Mall App icon stood out prominently—a cobra with gaping jaws, seemingly poised to strike at any moment.He didn't open the app, instead casting another look at the despondent youth below."A 'cheat code' isn't meant for indulging in privileges," Evan stated. "If you don't strive
"Second, exports. The Aleria. has undermined the competitiveness of Elysian products. I'll implement a price compensation strategy to restore our edge and simultaneously pressure their domestic producers into bankruptcy.""We'll include a small card with our products. Customers can use this to claim the price difference at our overseas offices."Having penned these thoughts, a sly smile played across Evan's lips. He crumpled the paper, setting it aflame with a lighter. The sparks danced in his dark pupils.Adam returned to Lumina City at 2 PM.He rushed to TikToC headquarters, and not finding Mr. Smith there, drove straight to Riverside Villa. Before he could knock, Evan opened the door, ushering him in."Adam, have finance check how much money I have left at TikToC. I plan to withdraw it all. I have a major undertaking in mind for the near future."Adam froze, his facial muscles twitching. Mr. Smith was plotting something big again. Indeed, wealth truly granted limitless possibilitie
"But that still falls short," Adam murmured, his head bowed. "Should we perhaps withdraw the money you earned in Nikrosia to make up the difference, Mr. Smith?""Absolutely not!" Evan's face darkened instantly. That money was his hard-earned wealth, truly belonging to him. The system's money, while unlimited, was meant to be spent and, in a sense, didn't genuinely belong to him.To spend his own money felt like carving flesh from his very being."Oh," Adam immediately cowered, his chubby hands fidgeting uncertainly."Ahem," Evan cleared his throat, his expression softening slightly as he continued, "The third matter is this: I need you to locate someone—a foreigner with blonde hair and blue eyes."This person was the foreign youth who possessed The Multiverse Mall App. Evan wanted to know when this young man would return to Aleria, intending to detonate the water droplet upon his arrival."Certainly, I'll begin the search immediately," Adam replied.After Evan had finished relaying th
They were all too familiar with Kimberly Foster's personality - haughty, self-assured, intolerant of the slightest imperfection, always exuding an air of female authority, as unpredictable as a woman going through menopause.She immediately picked up the phone and called the building's head of security: "Since when did our Academy become a haven for lunatics? Remove those two at once!"The security chief trembled, "But they're important figures from Lumina City."Kimberly Foster retorted coldly, "Does being a Lumina City bigwig give them the right to cause havoc here? If they don't shut their mouths, throw them out!""Very well," the security chief reluctantly agreed.However, Dominic Taylor and Samuel Walker didn't give the security chief a chance to expel them. While he was on the phone, they slipped into the elevator, inquired about Kimberly Foster's location from other occupants, and headed directly to the sixth floor.Exiting the elevator, they rushed to the research lab, barging
