Ben did not know what he should do. It seemed like the opposite side did not come to get justice but just came from afar to ruin Shalom Technology’s reputation.Their purpose was not simple.Thomas frowned, and he had one more thought in his mind now.Actually, Ben had been very generous in offering those conditions. Besides, as the wife, if Mabel truly loved her husband deeply, she would definitely not appear the way she did.That was because Ben had offered a condition that Mabel would not have rejected. It concerned helping her husband, Everett to recover.Mabel did not seem to show concern about that.Did she not hear it or was she actually aim for something else?Thomas moved one step forward and purposely said, “I’ve done some research on medical skills, so let me take a look at Everett’s condition. Our company can provide the biggest help to make sure that your husband recovers.”He elaborated on the condition a little further because he wanted them to hear him clearly.
How could he explain it?He was unable to defend himself!Something was wrong with Shalom Technology’s product. He believed that this would be published in the headlines within half an hour. At that time, he would not be able to reverse the situation even if he wanted.The end of Shalom Technology had arrived.Mabel raised her head and did not feel sad at all. She just felt arrogant and happy as if she had achieved her aim.While everyone thought that Shalom Technology was over, nobody noticed that Thomas had reached out to press Everett’s body a few times and activated several acupuncture points on his body.Subsequently, while everyone was there, Everett, who had initially been paralyzed and dull-witted suddenly jumped up from the wheelchair with his legs in a cast!He kept jumping and chuckling as he scratched his body because it itched.He even broke the cast on his legs, and he sat on the ground as he scratched himself. The situation made everyone on the spot stunned as
Thomas raised his hand to get the security guards to separate other irrelevant people and give Mabel some space to breathe. He did not want to push her into a corner too much.He walked over slowly and asked in a calm tone, “Who paid you and asked you to do this?”Mabel shook her head.“Huh?”Thomas’ gaze terrified Mabel so much that she fell down on the ground and moved backward.She quickly explained, “It’s not that I don’t want to say it. I really don’t know.”That was strange.“If you’re working for someone and being paid, wouldn’t you know who the employee is?”Mabel nodded firmly. “Some time ago, I suffered losses for my shop. I got into huge debt, but I didn’t know what to do. But, when I went home the night before last, a few strangers who wore masks showed up in my room.“I initially thought that they had come to rob me, so I freaked out at that time. I wanted to run away, but they caught me.“After that, I realized that they did not come inside to rob me. Instead, t
“It must be the two of them.”Thomas picked up a pen and wrote down those two names on the A4 paper.He breathed a long sigh. The incidents today had been really strange. If he had not made those arrangements in the company and Ben had been the only person in charge there, the situation would have been terrible.Ben might not have gotten through Mikelle’s challenge, let alone the subsequent defamation and blackmail by Mabel.Tap! Tap!Ben walked into the office, and he spoke, “Young Master, did you know who is the person going against our company?”Thomas took up the A4 paper and showed the two names on the paper.Ben looked at it and nodded. “I actually thought the same too. Only Conley Hudson would do such a thing. He’s been gone for so long, so I thought both parties would not go against each other again. Who would have known that…” Thomas indifferently said, “He did not disappear. He’s just been waiting for the right time…” “Time?”“Yes, now is the time that they’ve dec
In the Southland District’s city center, Skyworld Enterprise building, the chairman’s office.Conley was discussing and planning with Ryan about dealing with Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment. The whole plan had been laid out, and they were just finalizing the last bits.Conley’s face was filled with a sly and disgusting smile.“Ryan, it’s amazing! Your methods are really cruel!“This time, Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment would finally be done.“Shalom Technology falls first, then Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment will also fall apart. I want to see how arrogant Thomas could still be. Haha!”While he was feeling happy, the door office door was opened.His secretary hurriedly walked inside. There was something wrong with her expression as she said, “Mr. Hudson, something is wrong.”“What?” Conley felt unhappy. He had been receiving good news all day, and he was feeling happy. So, when he heard his secretary say “something was wrong,” h
On this matter, Ryan had to admire Thomas’ courage and wisdom. Thomas did not just know with one look that Everett had faked his paralyzed state, but he even resolutely forced Everett to reveal his true self.How could a regular person possess such an imposing manner?Besides, even if you could tell the truth, would you be able to force Everett to reveal himself?At that point, Ryan had been unable to reach the same heights as Thomas in medical achievements.But Thomas had done all of it.It showed that Thomas had done very deep research in medical skills to the point that even Ryan was too far behind to catch up with him.“Great Thomas. He is not just skillful, bold, and brilliant, even his medical skills are also at an advanced level now.“He is so amazing.”Ryan had made a mistake. He did not expect Thomas’ medical skills to be so advanced.Ryan had failed.This was the second time already.Ryan initially thought that his plan was so perfect that he could defeat Thomas. W
At Skyworld Enterprise’s office building, many ordinary sedans were parked in its parking lot one after another in a low-key manner.It did not seem strange.In the meeting room...People, who were dressed up ordinarily, gathered and sat together.While they looked ordinary, they were anything but that.If anyone from the industry saw the people in the room, they would have been speechless from shock, because all of these people were those in charge of every cinema in the Southland District.This group of people would usually gather at big parties, but they were sitting together in a low-key manner now, huddling together in Skyworld Enterprise’s meeting room. What did they want to do?After everyone arrived, the meeting room’s door was locked, and nobody was allowed to go in or out.The chairman of Skyworld Enterprise, Conley was sitting at the head of the meeting desk. He took a deep breath before he spoke in a serious and solemn tone. “Everyone here is an expert in the Sout
Anna shook her head.“No.”“No?” Thomas lowered his head. Was there really nothing or was the enemy setting the trap up?It was hard to tell.While the two of them were talking, the secretary walked inside and said, “Mr. Mayo, Ms. Caspian, Mr. Jan Payne, the Art Director of the Film and Television Department, said he has to meet you because of something important.”Jan?Thomas narrowed his eyes.He remembered clearly that Jan Payne was the undercovered arranged by Hegemony Entertainment to be in Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment. He was the culprit who stole the lyrics and caused Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment to suffer a serious loss.Then, Thomas let bygones be bygones. He did not punish Jan, and he even kept him in the company. He also gave Jan a huge amount of money to treat his father.Thomas kept him because he might be needed in the future.Was today the day?“Let him come in.”“Yes.”The secretary walked out, and Jan walked inside wit
No one knew how far down the title Emperor of Luck was inherited.They had finally caught Luck.Following that, Eric leaped into action and reeled in his haul as fast as he could. With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally
Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi
It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible
At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the
Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’
For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin
How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the
After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck
“I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
