"The distinction between humans and animals lies in humans' capacity to think and control their desires. If one cannot even manage trivial desires, what sets them apart from animals?"When I was young, herding cattle on the mountain, those bulls and cows paid no heed to whether anyone was watching. They simply acted. If humans cannot exercise self-restraint, we are akin to animals."Sylvia chuckled. "You're absolutely right. There is indeed a significant disparity between humans and animals!"She agreed with Eric's perspective. Life wasn't solely about sex, after all. Based on her understanding of Eric, she knew he wasn't inclined in that manner."Let's turn in early. I'm taking tomorrow off to spend the day at home with you. There's a new deployment looming, so I might get busy soon," Eric said.He was also preparing for the future. Although there weren't many indications within the Combat Department yet, it was only a matter of time before the truth would surface.Upon hearing

Considering the situation and following a discussion among Eric, Sylvia, and Andy, they decided to institute an employee allowance. Each individual, including janitors, would receive 100 dollars. Additionally, those on duty would be granted an extra 50 dollars.Employees stationed overseas wouldn't receive the allowance but would instead be compensated with increased subsidies.In reality, work at the Innova Group had temporarily ceased, including research and development, while equipment production gradually declined due to employee safety concerns. Some high-level executives initially considered increasing production under the assumption that a cure would be developed. However, subsequent events proved their caution justified. Despite being curable, the disease left lingering effects, impacting employees' health.The Innova Group prioritized its workforce and spared no effort in distributing funds. They recognized the importance of fostering a sense of belonging among employees

It was a serene day for Eric as he lounged in the sun with Sylvia, savoring afternoon tea.The following morning, Ruth sent over crucial data. After days of meticulous effort, they finally traced the virus' origin. Regrettably, the initial infected individual had already succumbed to the illness. Consequently, the Combat Department grew increasingly convinced that the virus had been intentionally unleashed.Coincidentally, the outbreak coincided with a large exhibition hosted in Dortmund City, providing an ideal opportunity for the virus to spread.Upon checking the data, Eric even began to harbor suspicions regarding the Oberdeens' involvement. If indeed they were implicated, it would suggest the existence of other collaborators aiding them in profiteering from this dire situation.However, the complexity of the matter far exceeded Eric's initial estimations.-A few days later, an urgent report arrived from the Combat Department."We have uncovered a grave case of confidential

In the evening, Eric returned to the Williams residence. He rarely worked overtime unless faced with a significant project.After dinner, he pondered for a while and decided it was time to speak with Queenie. After all, he had made no breakthroughs in the case over the past few days.When Eric sought out Queenie, he brought Connor and Sylvia along to prevent any misunderstandings.Queenie was aware that the viral outbreak incidents in Dortmund and Salt Cities were under official investigation when Ruth and several members of the Combat Department visited the Williams. The commanding presence of Ruth and her colleagues was not something an ordinary person could easily exhibit.At this juncture, Queenie discovered that Eric was also an official agent. Connor asked, "Queenie, can you confirm whether the Oberdeens have indeed developed the cure?"This question was crucial and required confirmation. Once confirmed, it would significantly streamline Eric's efforts. Originally, the Comba

Eric also understood that it would be futile even if Queenie desired to warn the Oberdeens now. There were forces in this world that defied easy intervention. Even with the Oberdeens aware of the potential consequences, retribution would not be immediate. Thus, they succumbed to their desires.Nevertheless, it fell upon Connor to keep Queenie safe. If Queenie chose to inform the Oberdeens, she too would bear the consequences when the scores were settled.Although Eric and Sylvia were aware of Queenie's disappointment in the Oberdeens, they remained her family.Eric told Sylvia, "By the way, Dr. Gundry headed to Phoenix City with the genetic data from the lab."Eric could freely discuss matters regarding the Combat Department with Sylvia. She was, in essence, considered half a member of the department. When Pierce faced arrest and Eric and Ruth sought refuge in Phoenix City, Sylvia exonerated them.The Combat Department's assessment portrayed Sylvia as a woman who equaled men in ev

All of Lewis' items were now neatly packed and placed on the table in front of him: USB drives and some paper documents.Eric continued. "I had people in Phoenix City check. There haven't been any recent academic exchange conferences there, so what were you doing?"Lewis' face fell. He had heard from Kirk that Eric was not someone to mess with and was beyond his league. Now, he truly felt that Eric was an extraordinary figure with unparalleled capabilities.He had done his homework well before going to Phoenix City. Once he was there, it was virtually impossible for people from this side to bring him back. Moreover, they had assured him protection. Yet, it was exactly those people who claimed to protect him that personally put him on the plane."Who exactly are you?" He looked at Eric, feeling fear for the first time. He had been in Phoenix City, breathing the air of freedom. How had he ended up in this situation?!In reality, he might have successfully taken these things out befo

Eric nodded in understanding, having already deduced the situation. To him, Lewis appeared oblivious despite his high level of education. Devoid of independent thought and conviction, Lewis seemed susceptible to manipulation with the right incentives.Eric convened a small meeting specifically to address the issue with Lewis, particularly concerning the direction of online discourse.Ultimately, they decided to unofficially leak information about Lewis' apprehension. Robert would make an official announcement after allowing the news to circulate for a few days.After the meeting, Eric and a few members of the Combat Department prepared to depart. However, as they exited the meeting room, they were met with a commotion."Who's there?" An angry voice emanated from where Lewis was being held, followed by the sounds of a scuffle.Before Eric and the others could rush over, the power in the entire building suddenly went out."Go! Provide support!" Eric exclaimed as he darted forward.

There were three shadow warriors, but one lay dead, leaving two concealed in the darkness. Eric understood their Catellonian origins, prompting him to question the link between Catellon and the virus outbreak.However, Eric couldn't dwell on this. He still had to confront the remaining shadow warriors, whose capabilities were heightened by the darkness.Suddenly, he squinted and swiftly hurled a dagger toward a shadowed corner of the wall. The glint of the blade pierced the darkness, followed by the thud of a body hitting the ground. Yet, even amidst the blackened surroundings, Eric sensed the imminent danger."Bring it on!" he bellowed, channeling his energy into his fist and launching it toward the source of the impending attack.A pair of sounds reverberated through the corridor: one, the impact of his punch meeting its target, and the other, the echo of the body colliding with the wall.Simultaneously, the corridor lights flickered to life, illuminating the scene. Strewn acros

In terms of innate talent, Eric was unparalleled, having reached the pinnacle of martial arts. With a single punch, he sent the 'God' flying."Good!" Stealthbane shouted with excitement.The ultimate enemy had finally been defeated, bringing peace to the world. Eric sighed in relief.However, in the next moment, the 'God' stood up again. Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he revealed a bloodthirsty smile. "You have successfully enraged me!"Everyone braced for a potential massacre, but instead, the enemy turned and fled.Could Eric let him escape?"Chase him!" Stealthbane commanded.Allowing this foe to escape would spell endless trouble.A group of people pursued the enemy, who soon reappeared clad in iron armor."Not seen this before, have you?" The 'God' seemed to have recovered somewhat. "Did you think I only research viruses? Wrong! I control global resources and global wealth!"This is our newly developed Doomforge Exosuit which amplifies a person's battle prowess tenfol

The sturdy floor lay in utter disarray.In desperation, Ruth shouted, "Eric, don't give him any more chances! Finish him off swiftly, or we'll face endless trouble!"Eric was well aware of this logic. As he fought, he said, "He's incredibly strong. Taking him down quickly isn't possible! We must fight to the death!"Eric had never feared battle. Besides, this might very well be his final fight.Their fists clashed fiercely.The 'God' also noticed that Eric was growing more formidable as the battle progressed."How do you have so much strength? Wouldn't it be better if we joined forces to control the world? We could have anything we desire!"All the world's wealth, women, and resources would be ours to enjoy. Why won't you listen to reason?" he roared.Eric's momentum didn't falter. "I don't share your grand ambitions. I just want a simple life with a job that pays 1,000 dollars a month and a warm home with my wife and kids. But you, you've disturbed my peace!"The 'God' was fu

The 'God' grew more courageous as the battle raged on, causing Stealthbane to worry incessantly.In another high-stakes clash, Eric and his opponent both retreated. Eric sensed his opponent's growing strength, finding it rather peculiar.The 'God' clenched his fist. "I must thank you! My techniques were slightly incomplete, but I've managed to fill the gaps through this battle!"Eric marveled at his opponent's genius. To mend something incomplete was indeed a rare talent.Despite Eric training with the complete manual, he could only match the 'God' blow for blow. This person was terrifying!The opponent's confidence soared. Although Eric had trained with the full manual, the 'God' felt his innate talent far surpassed Eric's. If he could match Eric with an incomplete manual, now that he had perfected it, wouldn't he be unbeatable?"I thought you had potential and considered inviting you to share this world with me," the 'God' said, his tone turning icy. "But now, I see it's unnece

Stealthbane even felt that Eric might not be a match for the "God."The power was overwhelming.The terrifying aura was enough to crush everything. To an ordinary person, this was a real deity—the strength possessed had already transcended human limits.Eric made his move with a burst of speed. The clash of their fists created a thunderous explosion, and the sound was so intense that Stealthbane felt his eardrums might shatter.This was a battle of the highest caliber, one that even a legend like Stealthbane could not hope to join.Seeing the two evenly matched, Stealthbane sighed in relief. At least there was a chance that the strongest combatants were neutralizing each other. The outcome was still uncertain.Eric shook his aching fist, his expression grave. The opponent's strength was as he had anticipated. If the ultimate boss of the Luminous did not possess such combat power, it would be absurd.Clearly, this "God" had also gauged Eric's strength.He extended a hand toward

Stealthbane knew that the figure facing them must be the ultimate leader of the Luminous.Suddenly, he no longer wanted to die. If he could hold on just a little longer, it would all be over."Mr. Johnson, these people don't seem ordinary. Could that leader be the ultimate figure of the Luminous? Are we about to complete the game?" he whispered.To him, this mission to the Ark felt like a game: defeat the final boss, and victory is achieved."If I'm not mistaken, it should be. This person gives me... a sense of danger," Eric said.Upon hearing this, Stealthbane felt reassured.Just a sense? That meant the problem wasn't too grave!The leader on the opposite side turned to Eric. "I didn't expect you to make it this far. I underestimated your strength, believing my Ark was impregnable, that no enemy could breach it. But why are you so persistent? Why such determination?"He suddenly screamed in a fit of hysteria, "I have so many people! Such a grand scheme! It has all succeeded!

Brent shouted desperately, "After you get on your knees, they'll kill you all, and we won't survive either! Kill them! Kill them all!"He understood the situation with stark clarity. Kneeling meant certain death. If they had to die anyway, fighting back would be their only chance of survival.Eric sighed. "Mr. Rogers, in the end, it was we who implicated you. But this place must be eradicated, and the Luminous must be destroyed as well! Everyone, attack!"As the battle commenced, the masked man immediately struck Brent with a punch.Eric charged in. "Die!"He knew that Brent was unlikely to survive. This punch was his way of avenging Brent.The masked man spun around, trying to block Eric's punch. But the speed of the blow was too much—the gust of wind from the punch arrived before the fist did.It was an instant kill.The masked man had no time to react before Eric's punch collided with his chest. The terrifying force shattered the mask on the man's face, revealing an unfamili

Stealthbane was blinded by rage. He was killing anyone in sight, his fury unrelenting. They had ventured deep into enemy territory, where every encounter seemed to be with an adversary.Eric and his team from the Combat Department showed no mercy.Yet even Stealthbane's resolve was wearing thin."I can't kill them all! It feels like every master in the world is concentrated here!" he shouted in frustration.He felt the number of people he had brought was insufficient. If he had brought a few thousand more, he might have been able to overrun the place.Stealthbane was overwhelmed by the sheer horror of their situation. Fortunately, they had arrived. If anyone else had come, they would have met their end here.The numbers of the masters seemed endless."Damn it!" Stealthbane cursed angrily. "There are too many of them, and they're all exceptionally powerful. What kind of game is this?"He was tempted to retreat, but where could he go?Eric sent an enemy flying, pushing forward

"I was opposed to coming in from the start, but as you all know, the Rogers family is extremely complex. If we hadn't entered, I might have ended up dead. At least if the virus isn't a threat, that's something!" Brent poured himself a cup of coffee and continued. "These people are ruthless! They want to kill everyone outside the Ark and establish a new order, managed by a select few. It's insane!"You don't need to tell me—I know you're here to kill them."He then pulled a small token from his pocket. "This is our Rogers family's privilege here. It allows us to move freely between different levels. With this, you can go anywhere!"Stealthbane grabbed it eagerly. "Why didn't you mention this earlier? Things will go much smoother with this!"Brent sighed. "Once you've handled everything, could you take me out with you? I really don't want to stay in this dreadful place any longer.""Sure!" Eric nodded. "We'll definitely call you when we leave. For now, we're heading out."Brent e

Everything was ready, but they couldn't just walk in.Ruth instructed the Combat Department to conduct a three-day intensive training for everyone, focusing on coordinated combat.-After three days, the forces led by Stealthbane moved out, first dismantling the outer defenses of the Ark. This was their specialty!A large group of several hundred arrived in front of the Ark's entrance. At first glance, it resembled a mountain.Jack scratched his head and said, "Is this the gate? I don't see any door."The Holy Templar's people arrived as well. St. Pius said, "Everyone, don't rush. Wait for two minutes. Once the gate opens, we need to get in quickly. I have other plans inside, but once we're in, it's going to be a life-or-death battle! No one should show any mercy!"Stealthbane flexed his fists and replied, "Do I look like a good guy to you? Just watch me deal with them!"No sooner had he spoken than there was a tremendous roar. The ground shook, and the door of the Ark swung
