"After consuming a few more bites, the flavor intensified, and it's definitely not pleasant."

Robert remained clueless about Eric's intentions. Nonetheless, he couldn't shake the feeling that today's lunch was subpar.

Eric's face turned frigid as he retrieved the bag of braised pork Lora had given him the previous day, placing it firmly on the table.

"I'm sure some of you know what this is. This is what everyone had for today's lunch."

As soon as he said that, the whole room was in an uproar.

"Pre-packaged food? How can we eat this stuff? Is it healthy?" someone exclaimed.

Hearing this, Eric smiled and pointed to that person. "Exactly!"

He held the packet of braised pork and stood up, pointing to the ingredients list on it. "When I saw this yesterday, I was shocked. Look at the ingredients listed here. It's longer than the thesis introduction I wrote before graduating!

"Even the leftover food we usually put in the fridge at home has a strange smell, let alone something labeled

    The folks in Salt City were anxious, rumors swirling around like a storm.Some were furious, accusing Eric of poking his nose where it didn't belong. For years, everyone had kept to themselves, so why stir up trouble now?-In the evening, Robert briefed Eric."We've apprehended nine key individuals and temporarily shut down the prepackaged food manufacturer. But I made sure they have enough food for three days."The ones we caught today and yesterday are all linked."Eric nodded. "Robert, you've worked hard. Don't eat the food meant for the government agencies. There are too many additives, making it unhealthy. Everyone has worked hard, and you deserve something better."Robert smiled. He knew that following Eric meant he wouldn't be treated unfairly.He continued. "After today's operation, I received some anonymous messages."Eric raised his eyebrow. "Oh? What's the content?""Some told me to release the people, and others warned me to stop, lest I end up dead in a car acci

    Eric furrowed his brow. "What does a kid know about liking someone? Focus on your studies!"Max nodded hastily before adding, "People kissing on TV means they like each other. If you like someone, you should kiss them." Eric was at a loss for words. He wondered how these kids could understand everything.After the boys finished eating, Eric packed their lunchboxes and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, Lora arrived. "Mr. Johnson, can I invite you for a cup of coffee?" Eric didn't refuse. The reason was simple. If it weren't for Lora, Eric wouldn't dare to imagine when these issues at school would be discovered.-At the coffee shop.Lora sat across from Eric. She wasn't stunningly beautiful but exuded an air of intellectuality. She looked at Eric with admiration. "Mr. Johnson, you're truly remarkable. The issues we've raised remained unresolved for months, but when you stepped in, they were quickly resolved."The events of the past two days had astonished her. She couldn't

    Lora was about to leave when Desmond approached her."Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes, especially when the hero is quite wealthy." Desmond chuckled. "He's in a different league, Ms. Kensington."Things that he couldn't control were completed by Eric in just two days, which showed Eric's capability. He was more than just the founder and CIO of the Innova Group.Lora remained silent.Perhaps the biggest regret in one's life was meeting the right person at the wrong time.-Meanwhile, Eric arrived at Robert's unit. The latter was under immense pressure lately but had grown accustomed to it. He knew that the greater the pressure, the more serious the matter. And the more reason to dig deeper without wavering.As he handed Eric a glass of water, he said, "Lieutenant General Johnson, this matter is far more complex than we imagined."The issue with milk is only limited to Salt City, but the issue with the prepackaged food is far more complicated. A group of people has

    After hanging up, Eric printed out the transfer order, stamped it, and handed it to Roger. "It's still early today. My plane is waiting for you at the airport. Once you arrive in King City, deploy immediately. We can't delay this matter!""Yes, sir" Robert replied, taking the order and swiftly assembling his team to leave.He marveled at Eric's financial power, having even his own private plane. He also admired Eric's generosity, letting them use his private plane. Such a person deserved to be in a high position.Robert rushed to King City with his team and immediately started investigating.Normally, such a case could be transferred from Salt City to King City. However, Eric only trusted his people and felt reassured with Robert personally handling the case.When he returned to the Williams residence, it was already past 2:00 p.m.Amelia had the kitchen bring out food, saying, "Eric, you haven't eaten yet, right? No matter how busy you are, you must remember to eat first."He

    As night fell, Irvin and Josh returned home.Andy also visited the Williams residence to pick up the boys. Recently, Andy had been managing the company, taking the boys to school in the morning, and picking them up from the Williams residence in the evening.It was a repetitive cycle that was expected to continue for a long time. But he found joy in it. When he visited the Williams residence in the evening, he could still discuss work-related matters with Eric. Now, he had assumed full responsibility for the Innova Group, while Michael oversaw the overseas division.Avoiding errors in decision-making was his primary objective. Even when facing significant choices within the company, he would seek Eric's counsel, particularly considering Sylvia's opinions.Andy was aware of Eric's recent busyness. Despite still being on maternity leave, Eric had little time for rest.Nonetheless, Eric didn't mind the hustle. He found joy in spending time with Sylvia and cuddling their newborn. De

    Eric felt awkward.After the Williams family had prepared the meal, he brought it over to Cody and Max without having eaten anything himself yet. However, refusing such hospitality was difficult. Amid their conversation, Lora raised the issue of textbooks since she hadn't heard any updates about it."So, only this subject's textbooks have a problem. Are there any alternative textbooks available?" he asked."Yes." Lora nodded. "Usually, there are several sets of textbooks available, at least two. There are also alternative textbooks approved by the Education Department. The problem now is that nobody knows if the alternative textbooks have the same issue.""Alright. I'll send someone over to check it out later. If there are no problems, we'll replace them all."Lora smiled, looking at Eric. "Mr. Johnson, do you have time this weekend?"In her view, people like Eric ought to enjoy ample free time on weekends. She had also seen news about the Innova Group, and their employees usuall

    Yvette's celebration party wasn't extravagant. Sylvia and Eric just invited a few tables to show their gratitude.In a little over a month, Sylvia's figure had returned to its previous state, which left Eric somewhat regretful. He actually preferred Sylvia with a slightly fuller figure.Thanks to Eric, Sylvia recovered well, and her figure remained unchanged.After the party, they fulfilled their desires.Eric noticed that Sylvia seemed to have gained even more charm than before.-Robert returned to Salt City, satisfied with the conclusion of the case. However, the files weren't kept there—they were stored at the Combat Department headquarters in King City.The impact of this case was immense, and many people were arrested. When Robert reported to Eric, he concluded that their enemy had infiltrated the country's ranks.Even though the case was closed, Robert was still indignant. "The enemy's desire to harm us never dies. As expected, Catellon is involved. We have targeted a Ca

    If Catellon were truly friendly, they wouldn't unleash viruses or target their children. Their objective is clear—they sought to sabotage the next generation.By destroying it, it would be easier for them to make a comeback.Warfare had evolved—it was no longer solely about seizing land with military might. The destruction of a country's ideology was far more alarming. The Combat Department had recognized this shift and had been actively engaged in multiple operations in recent years. Their focus was on uncovering truths and devising effective countermeasures.Roger understood these matters. "Now that we are strong and our weapons have made great progress, Catellon dare not confront us head-on. As such, they want to undermine us from within." Eric smiled. Regardless of public opinion, as long as the decision-makers understood the essence of the matter, the enemy wouldn't be able to infiltrate them.Perhaps their methods may seem extreme, but so what? It was because they had rea

    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
