Under the watchful eyes of the Nine Nether squad members, Griffon could not help but shudder and take a step back. He felt an inexplicable sensation, as if their team captain, Bluebird, had suddenly changed in some profound way.Before Griffon could ask what was going on, Bluebird's clear voice echoed again."Griffon, attack me!" she commanded, fixing her gaze on him."Captain, what are you..."Griffon was stunned by Bluebird's sudden request. Just moments ago, they had been discussing matters related to Liam. Why did she make such an unexpected demand?"I said, attack me!"Bluebird's voice grew cold as she repeated her order, seeing Griffon still rooted in place."Alright, Captain, but be careful..."Despite his confusion about Bluebird's intentions, Griffon had always believed in following orders. After giving his warning, his eyes sharpened in focus.In the next instant, he charged toward Bluebird like a fierce tiger. Though all members of the team had excellent physical ab
"What?"The moment he sensed what was happening, Griffon went into shock. However, it was too late for him to retreat. He followed quickly and arrived in front of Bluebird.Clenching his teeth, Griffon struck Bluebird just as he had the first time, delivering a fierce punch.Immediately, he saw a small, delicate, white fist appear in his line of sight. In the next instant, this small, delicate, white fist collided hard with his own!At the moment of impact, a muffled sound echoed.Griffon only felt an immense, boundless force surge through his fist. His body was thrown uncontrollably backward, crashing heavily to the ground!Seeing Chimera lying beside him, face contorted with pain, Griffon was stunned."Wait…"It was not just Griffon. The other three members of the Nine Nether squad halted abruptly at this scene.Yeti's voice trembled, as if he wanted to say something. "Captain, what… What's going on?"They were truly afraid that if they charged forward, the next person to b
However, Liam, who had taken a helicopter the day before, was unaware of what happened the next day. The reason he had hurriedly left the Nine Nether squad's base was simple.He had heard some news!During his time as an instructor at the Nine Nether squad's base, Liam had limited contact with the outside world due to the lack of cell phone signal. He could only reach out to others. It was difficult for others to contact him. Besides, there were not many people he needed to communicate with regularly. Thus, for the past ten days or so, he had lived quite peacefully.However, after helping Bluebird complete her breakthrough, he remembered his medicinal herb, Bellflower.It had been some time since the contract was signed. Liam wanted to check on the progress related to Bellflower, so he called Lucy.Over the phone, Liam learned that shortly after he left the sales office at Vientiane Bay, Serena arrived there alone. Before he could comment on that, Liam received shocking news fro
Liam listened to the report from Lucy and simply said four words."Wait for my return." With that, he hung up the phone. Lucy, who had been filled with panic and despair, felt a sense of relief the moment she heard Liam's voice.Lucy firmly believed that as long as Liam was around, there would be no problems.Meanwhile, on the armed helicopter, Liam recalled the information Lucy had conveyed over the phone. He narrowed his eyes, a cold gleam flashing through them.He could not believe that so much had happened in the few days he was at the Nine Nether squad's base. After Morgan's attempt to seize the Spring Dawn Tincture, the Danzel family dared to unite with other pharmaceutical companies and provocatively challenge them.On the other side of the helicopter, Gabriel's assigned liaison, Jerry Foster, noticed the change in Liam's expression and quickly asked, "Grandmaster Burrey, is something wrong?"Liam shook his head, looking calmly at the clouds outside the window, "It's
"Let's hope Grandmaster Burrey can return soon!"Steven's face showed a hint of urgency. The Hill family had great admiration for Liam!'Before Grandmaster Burrey returns, I need to prepare and see if there's anything I can do to help him,' Lucy thought before hurrying away.As she stepped out of the room, she heard a commotion outside the Hill family mansion."What's going on?" Noticing the unusual noise outside, Lucy paused before heading towards the door."Where's Lucy? Tell her to come out and see me! Today is the last day! Does she still intend to hide like a coward?"Before she even reached the door, Lucy heard a sharp voice. She frowned, pushed open the door, and stepped out.Standing at the entrance was Hans Denzel, the head of the Danzel family and chairman of Caduceus Pharmaceuticals, with a cold expression. Behind him were a large number of people.Among them were Jace Solaris, chairman of Solaris Pharmaceuticals, Fred Rendall, president of PureGen Group, and Kenji
"Y-you..."Lucy was suddenly at a loss for words.As a businesswoman, she understood that the marketplace was akin to a battlefield. However, witnessing those prominent figures shamelessly flaunting their demands before her, anger surged within her heart. "You see everyone's stance, right? We're all dissatisfied with your current actions!" Contrary to the rising tension, Hans grew more smug. He sneered and continued, "I still address you as the leader of the Hill Group now, but if the agreed time passes without a satisfactory response from you, don't blame us for canceling the application for listing your company!" Lucy was even more infuriated. "What more do you want me to do?"Hans's demands were simply impossible to meet! He brought so many people to the Hill family not to solve the problem amicably but to pressure them. Faced with that situation, she felt utterly helpless. To Lucy, it was an unsolvable deadlock! "Grandmaster Burrey..."She anxiously glanced at the t
It was not only Lucy. Everyone else, including Hans, the heads of various pharmaceutical groups were all drawn by the unusual noise. They all looked up.A small black dot slowly appeared at the edge of the skyline. As the rumbling sound grew louder, the small black dot gradually became larger."A helicopter?"The moment Hans saw clearly what the small black dot on the horizon was, he was taken aback.Everyone there were CEOs of various pharmaceutical companies, all billionaires with considerable experience. They were no strangers to helicopters and the like.However, what surprised them was seeing a helicopter in the provincial capital of the Qyn Province.Due to the Qyn Province's unique geographical location, the airspace over the provincial capital was extremely strictly regulated.Apart from civil aviation aircraft, basically no private aircraft could obtain flight clearance. However, there was a helicopter boldly flying toward them.How could the situation not astonish the
"Grandmaster Burrey?"When he heard Lucy's words, Hans froze in shock. He stared, wide-eyed, at the tall figure ahead of him.The young man stepping off the armed helicopter was the president of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation?As Liam disembarked from the helicopter, he clearly had not expected so many people to be gathered in front of him.He paused for a moment before he started walking toward Lucy.The dozen armed soldiers behind him prepared to follow. However, before they could move, they were stopped by a wave of Jerry's hand.Jerry remembered that Gabriel had once instructed him that Liam disliked making a big scene in such situations.In an instant, the previously noisy Hill family mansion fell into a dead silence. Only the sound of Liam's footsteps could be heard.Liam quickly reached Lucy and asked calmly, "Why are there so many people at the door? How did the matter you mentioned on the phone get handled?"Hearing that familiar, composed voice, Lucy could no
