The next morning, Benjamin was drinking wine in the bar alone. He was very upset as he was still worried about what happened yesterday.

Since the arrival of Zach, he had changed from the most superior person to the second most superior person.

This was nothing.

What irritated him most was for Thomas to actually become his superior.

What did this mean?

He had worked so hard for Stellar Jewelers for more than ten years, but he actually lost to an outsider?

A purchasing manager could earn a lot of money, but such a good position was given to Thomas. Benjamin’s opinion had not been respected at all.

Zach’s various actions hurt Benjamin’s heart.

He downed glass after glass as he was unhappy.

At this time, a thin man sat beside him. He ordered a glass of wine as well and drank with Benjamin.

The man took a sip and said with a smile, “Mr. Garnett, why does a person like you drink wine here alone?”

Benjamin glanced at him. He seemed to have seen him somewhere, but he was not familia

    “Oh?” Benjamin was interested.“Now, Thomas is the manager of the purchasing department. You only need to ask him to buy part of this batch of goods. Then, he will bear all the losses. In this way, not only I can relieve my burden, but you also have the excuse to get rid of Thomas. We both get what we want, so why not we do it?”With that said, Benjamin became energetic once again.Yeah, let Thomas be the unlucky one and let him bear the loss. He could take the opportunity to get rid of him.Then, the position of the purchasing manager would be vacated again, and Benjamin could continue to rise to this position legitimately. He believed that Zach would not disrespect him twice.“This is a good idea.” Benjamin looked at Weiss. “But you have to tell me, how much money would we lose?”Weiss said, “This batch of goods cost a total of three hundred million dollars. If you take part in it, you will lose between one hundred and two hundred million dollars.”One to two hundred million d

    It was the second time Thomas came to the rough stone workshop.What was different from last time was that he came as the purchasing manager of Stellar Jewelers this time. He had also brought along his personal assistant, Doris Forrest.“It’s here,” Doris pointed to a store and said, “Velvet Rough Stone Shop. Mr. Garnett appointed us to come here to purchase.”A designated rough stone shop. This made Thomas a little uncomfortable.He asked, “Did you buy it at a designated shop before as well?”“No, I used to shop around,” Doris said truthfully, “This time I got reliable news that the Velvet Rough Stone Shop has bought a large number of new goods and was anxious to sell them, so we came fishing for clues.”Haha, how could there be such a good thing?It was impossible for Benjamin to let Thomas do such a simple thing.“Let’s go in and take a look.”The two people walked into the shop one after another, and the owner of the shop immediately greeted them.“What you guys want?”D

    It was equivalent to buying one hundred lottery tickets consecutively, with each of them winning five million dollars!Was that possible?It was absolutely impossible!Mr. Bentley looked at Thomas contemptuously. He thought that he was a fool and cheerfully confirmed it with him. “Mr. Mayo, are you sure you’re not joking with me?”Thomas looked at him. “Do you think I have time to joke with you?”“All right, I’ll agree to your terms then. You’ll pay one hundred million dollars to buy one hundred rough stones. You can pick whichever you want.”“Thank you.”Doris, who was at the side, was extremely anxious. She kept trying to signal Thomas, but Thomas seemed to have not glanced at her and ignored her.This was not a good deal.Doris was so anxious that she almost cried. It was one hundred million dollars, which could buy many freshly mined rough stones.But now, Thomas only wanted a hundred of them.What kind of joke was that?They would definitely lose money.Doris was alre

    When the car drove to the entrance, someone had been waiting long ago. They were waiting to watch Thomas make a fool of himself.When Doris got out of the car, she touched her forehead and shook her head in pain. She wondered how she was going to be scolded today. They spent one hundred million dollars to buy only one hundred rough stones. This kind of thing was really not something a human could do. It was too stupid.Benjamin brought a group of people over, and he asked with a fake smile, “Doris, has the purchase gone well today?”Doris hesitated and did not dare to speak.How should she say it?She could not say it.Right then, Thomas brought a basket of rough stones from the trunk and said with a smile, “The purchase went quite smoothly. All the rough stones are here.”Benjamin lowered his head and looked at the rough stones in the basket. He was stunned for at least half a minute.After a long time, he came back to his senses.“M-Mr. Mayo, what did you mean? What did you

    After all, he just wanted to make Thomas lost his position as the purchasing manager. He did not care if Thomas was delegated to some other position, and he was never expecting to chase him out of the Stellar Jewelers.This showed that Zach and Benjamin were making concessions.However, Thomas did not think so.He coughed slightly. “Mr. Quinn, I think you misunderstand something.”Zach looked at Thomas. “Who do you mean?”“You’re not responsible for it, and I didn’t make a mistake. Although I spent quite a lot to buy one hundred rough stones for one hundred million dollars, these one hundred rough stones are all top-quality rough stones. We’ll only make money out of them.”When Zach heard this, he was speechless for a while. He complained it his mind. ‘I’ve already helped you out of this situation, but why are you still digging your own grave? You’re just giving me more trouble.’Benjamin, who had originally planned to not call him out, immediately became energetic. He smiled an

    The conference hall had become a live broadcast room.The newly opened live broadcast channel had professional cameras. A large amount of money was tipped to the channel, attracting traffic.The best lapidarist they could get their hands on controlled the machine to cut one hundred rough stones on site.This feeling was like someone buying one hundred lottery tickets and drawing the numbers on the spot. It was very eye-catching. Everyone could not wait to enter the live broadcast channel to watch it.‘Coke and popcorn are ready. Please start your performance.’‘Those one hundred rough stones seem to be low-quality goods. I don’t think it’s worth the time.’‘I have the same thought. It should be a gimmick of the company. We don’t have to watch it. It’s definitely a pile of rubbish.’The official cutting had not yet begun, but the broadcast channel was already overcrowded. The comments appeared one after another, and most people were not optimistic about these rough stones.Among

    “That’s impossible. I don’t believe they would continue getting imperial jade.”“The first three were just dumb luck.”“It must be so.”Next, the rough stones were cut one after another. Indeed, the imperial jades they got later were lesser, but each of them was a fine product. This could not be wrong.The one with the lowest value was also worth around five to six hundred thousand dollars.Every time a rough stone was cut, Mr. Bentley’s heard seemed to be cut as well. It made his heart ache again and again.It took about an hour to cut all one hundred rough stones. The lapidarist let out a sigh of relief. Today was the most exciting job he had ever undertaken.After finishing today’s job, no stones would ever excite him this much again in the future.There were one hundred rough stones, and each of them was a fine product.There were imperial jades and emerald jades mixed in them.Zach also watched with enthusiasm. “Come on, quickly count the value.”The subordinates immedi

    Benjamin’s expression was bad, and he accepted the instant noodle with difficulty. He looked left and right, but none of his supporters stood up for him.As for Zach, he looked at him with a smile and was waiting for him to start his performance.Actually, Zach also felt sorry for Thomas, so in order to make Thomas happy, he did not plan to help Benjamin. It would be good as long as Thomas could vent his anger.The poor Benjamin got into a situation of isolation and helplessness.At that moment, Doris raised her hand and said, “I think this is bad.”Benjamin was overjoyed as someone was finally willing to stand up and speak for him.But Doris then said, “It’s bad to eat it dry. I think it tastes better after cooking it first.”Thomas laughed. “This is a good suggestion. Go and cook the noodles for Mr. Garnett. It is instant noodles, so you better cook it fast.”So, in less than five minutes, a bowl of hot instant noodles was served.Benjamin walked to the wall with a bitter ex

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
