"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
Hans stared at Liam, a cold smile flashing across his face. "After all this time, you finally dare to show yourself?"Liam squinted slightly at the man standing before him, head held high and an air of arrogance on his face. "You are?"Hans's face darkened. "You had the audacity to harm my brother, and you don't even know who I am? I never imagined that the mysterious president of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation would turn out to be just a young upstart!"Hans looked Liam up and down, a mocking glint in his eyes. "No wonder the daughter of the Hill family, Lucy, is so smitten with you. She's even willing to work for you without complaint!"From Hans's observations, Liam only had a minor connection with the military. His real backing was Lucy.After all, many resources of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation were obtained through the Hill family, all thanks to Lucy.Hans relaxed. Despite the Hill family's wealth and influence, they were not to be feared.Liam raised his
As the commander of the Central Military Region's Special Forces, Jerry was a lieutenant general with real power!At that time, Gabriel, worried about Liam's safety, specifically transferred Jerry from the Special Forces to act as Liam's liaison.It was not just Jerry. Even the fully armed soldiers standing beside the helicopter, who did not come along, probably held ranks higher than Ian!However, that foolhardy individual in front of them… How did he have the courage to mention Ian?The next moment, Jerry's eyes narrowed, and a fierce look flashed across his face. "Do you know who Grandmaster Burrey is—""Enough."However, before Jerry could finish speaking, Liam interrupted him. He did not want to get entangled with Hans in military matters.Liam looked calmly at Hans. "You said there's a problem with the Bellflower formula. Do you have any evidence?"Seeing Liam stop Jerry from speaking, Hans thought Liam was afraid.He raised his head, a cold smile appearing on his face a
When Lucy first met Liam, her heart was quite at ease. After all, she always believed that as long as Liam was there, there would be no problems.Especially since Liam arrived at the Hill residence in an armed helicopter. Although Lucy had no idea what connections Liam had with the military, the sight gave her even more confidence!However, when Liam mentioned contacting the provincial officials, Lucy suddenly became anxious. She feared that Liam was overestimating himself.When Hans pulled out that official test report, Lucy immediately sought out the relevant personnel. After all, before the listing of the Bellflower, they had conducted numerous safety and efficacy checks.Bellflower had no issues at all. Otherwise, they would never have obtained the drug approval number.However, when Lucy went to understand the situation, she discovered that the drug approval number for the Bellflower had also been frozen.Upon realizing that, Lucy tried every possible means and contacted eve
Hans squinted at Liam, a trace of coldness in his eyes. "After all, our accounts are far from settled. The Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation has yet to give me an explanation about my brother!""Don't worry. Your matters will all be addressed shortly," Liam replied calmly.Time ticked away second by second. A considerable amount of time had passed since Liam mentioned waiting for the official from the Qyn Province, but there was still no sign of any movement around them.Hans glanced at his watch and frowned but remained silent.However, Jace from Solaris Pharmaceuticals lost patience first. He raised his head, his expression dark.Jace stared at Liam and demanded, "So much time has passed, and still nothing! How much longer are you going to make us wait?"Following Jace's outburst, the other pharmaceutical company representatives also directed their dissatisfaction at Liam."We gave you time to prepare, but you cowered. Now, you're making us wait again!""Exactly! What's your
However, anyone who can become a commander of the military district is no simple character.When Gabriel took the stage, the cold expression on Matthew's face instantly disappeared, replaced by a cheerful smile."Old Warren, you finally made it!" He stood up and said with a laugh, "We've been waiting for ages!""It's not my fault. The Special Ops Instructor Exchange was suddenly moved up, and I almost wasn't prepared," Gabriel grumbled, throwing a glare at Matthew.Then, he was about to take a seat.But just as Gabriel was about to bend down, he suddenly paused and stopped in his tracks.He subtly turned his head to glance at Liam, who was standing behind him.With Grandmaster Burrey present, how could he dare sit in the main seat?"Go ahead and sit."Before Gabriel could say anything, Liam's calm voice rang out. He gently placed a hand on Gabriel's shoulder.Although it seemed light, Gabriel could feel an irresistible force emanating from Grandmaster Burrey's hand, causing h
However, before Gabriel could say anything else, he saw Grandmaster Burrey ahead turn his head and glance at Bluebird.The moment Liam's gaze was noticed, Bluebird's figure flickered and vanished instantly."What the…"Seeing this, Gabriel's body trembled, instantly freezing in place.If the first time Bluebird appeared behind him without a sound was because he had let his guard down and hadn't paid attention, then now, Bluebird had vanished right under his nose!In fact, Gabriel could not even see how the situation just unfolded!This scene left him completely stunned!What on earth was going on?Ever since the martial competition with the special ops squad, after Bluebird was saved by Grandmaster Burrey, not only did the scars on his face disappear without a trace, but even his strength had become so unbelievably powerful?For a moment, Gabriel was filled with shock!"What's wrong?"However, Liam did not pay attention to Gabriel's odd behavior. When he noticed Gabriel stan
Gabriel laughed.He knew better than anyone how much Grandmaster Burrey disliked trouble.That's why he had not even considered informing Liam about the upcoming All-Army Special Forces Instructor Exchange Conference."But..."At that moment, a thought seemed to cross his mind.He suddenly paused, a complex look flashing in his eyes."I really didn't expect that the existence of martial artists in the Hestia military could be kept from me for so long..."It was evident.After the members of the Nine Nether Squad stepped into the martial path, it was impossible to keep it hidden any longer. As a result, Gabriel finally learned about the martial arts world.And the more he understood, the more dissatisfied he felt.In fact, there was even a hint of worry in his heart.To keep such a secret from the entire Central Military Region for so many years—even allowing them to suffer humiliation during the Special Forces competition without revealing a single word about martial artist
Gabriel clearly wanted to say something more.But when he saw Liam turn his head and glance at him calmly, he froze instantly and quickly shut his mouth.Gabriel did not dare to continue arguing with Grandmaster Burrey.Even though he stopped speaking, his thoughts remained unchanged.The matter regarding the Bastion Squad was definitely not that simple.Moreover, Grandmaster Burrey was seeing things too simply, but Gabriel did not mind.After all, from the beginning, he had not expected to find a real solution to the problem from Grandmaster Burrey.After all, Grandmaster Burrey was not part of the military, so it was natural that his suggestions were impractical.Just being able to learn from Grandmaster Burrey that Bluebird was still alive was already a gain.As for bringing Bluebird back or dealing with him, Gabriel had not even considered it!The moment he realized that Bluebird had chosen to follow Liam, he decided not to ask a single question more about it.In fact, h
He looked at Gabriel and responded calmly."Well..."Hearing this, Gabriel was suddenly stunned.The next moment, a bitter smile flashed across his face."That's true, but Grandmaster Burrey..." Gabriel sighed helplessly. "The problem really isn't that simple. The method you mentioned—I've actually considered it too."But no one knows where the Bastion Squad is now. Since they raised this issue with the Hestia military, it clearly means the problem hasn't been resolved, and they definitely won't show up."I also heard that the captain of the Bastion Squad, Benedict, seems to have passed away due to some issues related to Bluebird."With all these factors, even if we go through a lot of trouble to find the members of the Bastion Squad, they might not cooperate with us."Not to mention, we don't even have any leads on them."At this moment, he finally understood why Grandmaster Burrey seemed so indifferent.The method Grandmaster Burrey proposed was indeed good, but to actually
"I'm afraid they also want to come to the Central Military Region to get detailed information about the situation."A trace of concern flashed across Gabriel's face.Events involving the entire army were always grand, and the preparations had to be thorough.However, the sudden advancement of the instructor exchange meeting would definitely disrupt many of his original plans.Most importantly— All of this also involved Bluebird.Gabriel initially did not know the specific situation. Now, seeing that Bluebird was indeed still alive made things even more complicated for him.The incident happened suddenly, and the preparations were insufficient. For a moment, Gabriel didn't know how to continue covering up the matter about Bluebird.After all—The news of Bluebird's death directly led to the Western Military Region being penalized, and even the Bastion Squad was expelled from the army!If Bluebird was not dead, and such a huge misunderstanding had occurred, the other war zones
Is all of this real or fake?"Commander Warren."Bluebird looked at Gabriel, his voice cold and calm, and nodded slightly.Compared to before, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel had noticeably changed.If, in the past, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel was like that of a subordinate to a superior in the military, then now, although she still showed respect, that sense of duty-bound obedience was gone.Because Bluebird knew very well who she was serving now!"You're really not dead..."Hearing Bluebird's admission, a flash of utter shock crossed Gabriel's eyes.In the next moment."Grand... Grandmaster Burrey..."His eyes trembled as he looked at Liam, his voice so dry due to the shock that it came out strained.Gabriel was well aware of how severe Bluebird's injuries were at that time.It could be said that everyone present had basically declared Bluebird's death.When they returned to the temporary base of the Nine Nether Squad, it was merely to fulfill Bluebird's last
At the same time…Liam was completely unaware of everything happening in South City.He also had no idea that, due to some misunderstandings, Willow was already furious and seeking help to rescue him from the Central Military Region.At this moment, he had already arrived at the Southern Military Region and met with Gabriel, who was overwhelmed with work."Grandmaster Burrey, please don't blame me for not coming to greet you…"Noticing Liam's arrival, Gabriel forced a bitter smile. After glancing at the documents in his hand, he said helplessly, "I received an unexpected notice, and I really couldn't get away…"It was clear that Gabriel genuinely felt guilty about not being able to greet Grandmaster Burrey in person.Even now, having already met Liam, he was still busy explaining himself."No need."Liam shook his head calmly.He did not care about any of this.What Liam was concerned about was the matter regarding Bluebird that Gabriel mentioned over the phone."Go ahead.
"So, Miss Lloyd, you mean to ask me to get someone out of the military for you?"Hearing Serena's words, Kenton was stunned for a moment."Mister Welford, what's wrong?"Serena's voice suddenly became flustered. "Is it a bit difficult?""From what you're saying, the unit that took the person should belong to the Central Military Region, which is different from our Western Military Region."Kenton hesitated. "Crossing war zones is indeed a bit troublesome…""Mister Welford, you must help me!"Upon hearing this, Serena grew even more anxious. "We can pay, as long as you can rescue him…"However, before she could finish, Kenton's voice interrupted."But how could I refuse a beauty's request!" Kenton chuckled heartily. "Don't worry, even if it's difficult, I can handle it. Coincidentally, I'm in South City lately. Even the commander of the Central Military Region has to give me some face!""Just give me the details about your friend and wait for my news."His voice was full of co
