Bartholomew's attempt had failed, and Roco still had much to strive for.

The next morning, around 10:00 a.m., Roco returned to the Innova Group. He reckoned that a company like Innova Group would likely be bustling with meetings in the morning and should start winding down by around 10:00 a.m.

Jacob didn't stop him. He knew Roco wasn't one to trifle with—he was a heavy hitter, and if things got physical, it would mean months of recuperation.

Still, Roco glared at Jacob. "Stop messing around! Once I take over the Innova Group, you're the first one I'll get rid of!"

Jacob stuck out his tongue mockingly. "I'll be waiting! If you can't get rid of me, you're just a loser!"

Roco was furious! Yet, at this moment, he didn't dare touch Jacob. It might alert Eric, and he'd undoubtedly receive another thrashing.

He vividly remembered he had a mission today. No one was to provoke the Innova Group. 'Ha, even the receptionist at the front desk didn't flirt with me. I just need to see Eric and

    Roco was consumed with lust. His hand moved uncontrollably toward Lora's buttocks.In the split second their touch met, Lora suddenly screamed and dodged, "Pervert! What are you doing?!"Fury coursed through her! Her face turned ashen! Growing up, besides her father spanking her buttocks when she was a child, no man had ever dared to touch her like this!Lora was disgusted by the scene, and even Jacob felt nauseated."Ugh!" Jacob spat, "Where did this idiot come from? You're dead meat!"Lora burst into tears.At that moment, Eric arrived, and Jacob hurriedly approached him. "Mr. Johnson, that bastard is at it again. Not only did he come, but he also touched Ms. Kensington's buttocks!"He found Roco utterly repulsive. Couldn't he just spend some money at a club? It wouldn't matter what he did in a private room, but why grope someone in public? Was he asking for trouble?Seeing Eric, Lora cried vehemently. She had never experienced such injustice before. Disregarding the onlooker

    As expected, Roco was taken away again. He left, cursing vehemently, visibly upset! He had barely arrived at the Innova Group, and he was already being taken away by the police.If this news got back to the Hernandez family, they would surely laugh their heads off. Getting caught once was embarrassing enough, yet he managed to get caught twice. It's like falling down in the same place twice. How humiliating!"Just focus on your own business," Eric said. "Jacob, next time that guy shows up, let him in."Jacob left with a grin. He couldn't stand Roco, so dealing with him brought him joy."Are you okay?" Eric turned to Lora, only to realize she had been staring at him the whole time. This woman was infatuated.As an educated person, she knew violence was wrong. But the way Eric had slapped someone earlier was kind of... cool, kind of manly!'Why is this man so captivating to women?'Seeing Lora silent, Eric furrowed his brows slightly. "Are you alright?"Lora snapped out of it, sh

    "Why do you say that?" Eric asked. He was genuinely curious about what Lora was thinking."It's quite obvious, isn't it? The textbook issue had been going on for years. Was anyone managing it? No one at all! And what about the milk problem? Was anyone managing it? Still, no one!" Lora said."There are too many complications involved. Even the principal, or certain bigshots in the education department, wouldn't dare to intervene in such matters. They might end up causing significant problems for themselves! "And you? You're fearless against authority, daring to act. You're truly someone doing good deeds. If someone gets killed by you, it's definitely because they deserved it, because they did something wrong."Eric chuckled at her words. Was this woman truly naive or just pretending? Could love really drive someone to such extremes? Despite having killed many people, wasn't she afraid?"I'm a dangerous person. Many want me dead. My parents are in the countryside, unlikely to be di

    Roco was known for his extensive network of connections. Despite being apprehended twice, he emerged relatively unscathed, save for a few unsightly marks on his face.Meanwhile, he had skillfully reset his dislocated wrist and arm without external assistance. Even amidst the scandal he created by harassing women at the Innova Group, the Hernandez family posted a sizable bail for his release, ensuring his freedom."Fucking hell!" Roco muttered under his breath as he exited the police station. "Is there something dubious going on with this Innova Group? I've been apprehended twice… Might a third encounter be inevitable?"He couldn't shake off the feeling of being shadowed.Once caught could be deemed accidental, but twice? That suggested negligence on his part. Seating himself, he contemplated his actions. He concluded that his own impulsiveness had led him astray. If he hadn't flirted with the receptionist the first time, Eric wouldn't have attacked him. If he hadn't groped someone'

    Upon his arrival at the Innova Group, Roco found the receptionist exceptionally beautiful. That was until he laid eyes on Lora. She was even more stunning than the receptionist.Now, seeing Sylvia, he couldn't help but think, 'Does the Innova Group really have such beauties? They outshine even the members of the Hernandez family!'She was akin to an angel that had descended to earth! Her face, slender waist, and round buttocks—perfection. How could such a beauty exist?As Sylvia entered, the receptionist hurriedly greeted, "Good day, Ms. Williams!"Sylvia nodded slightly without saying much.Roco snapped out of his trance. He couldn't believe that Sylvia was also a top executive at the Innova Group. Well, whether it was a CEO, vice president, or department manager, they were all addressed appropriately. Thinking that Sylvia might introduce him to Eric, Roco immediately put on a smile and approached her. "Hey, Ms. Williams, wait! Let me catch up with you!"Sylvia paused and turn

    As Jacob arrived, Roco struggled to his feet. He was utterly dumbfounded. How could the elegant and imposing Sylvia be this formidable? He hadn't even had a chance to react!Jacob tapped his palm with a riot baton, eyeing Roco. "Kid, you've got some nerve. You dare lay a finger on the CEO? I've lived for so many years, but I've never seen someone with such audacity. What's wrong? Is your brain full of worms?"Roco seethed with frustration. He hadn't even processed what happened before he was knocked down to the ground.A kick with high heels really hurt. How come no one could mess with the Innova Group's people?Seeing Jacob about to act, he decided to leave, to get out of this troublesome place sooner. And he made a firm resolution. 'No more talking to women this afternoon, only confrontations with men! Yeah, avoiding women should solve everything, right? I'm quite smart!'Unfortunately, Jacob blocked his path. Swinging the riot baton, he said, "You're asking for trouble by assau

    Jacob spat on his suit, then calmly wiped it clean with a tissue. 'This guy can really endure!' Finally, Roco caught sight of Eric driving out and hurried over. "Eric! Wait! Just wait a moment! Let's talk, let's have a good talk. There were some misunderstandings before!"Eric pulled the car over and got out.Seeing Sylvia also stepping out of the car, Roco couldn't help but freeze. 'How come this beautiful woman is with Eric?'He shook his head, adamant about not allowing himself to be enticed by another woman. 'These city women are scarier than tigers,' he thought."You're Eric," Roco said with a grin. "I guessed right, didn't I? I'm Roco Hernandez. We're practically cousins, being from the same generation in the Hernandez family!"Eric nodded. "You're not wrong. Sharing the same surname and generation in the Hernandez family, it's fair to call us cousins."Roco felt at ease with this acknowledgment. It appeared that the people of the Hernandez family were reasonable, open to

    In King City.These days, Julius grew increasingly uneasy. The sudden appearance of an envoy from the Hernandez family was not something he could easily dismiss. It was time to seek Lionel McClain's counsel on the matter of the aristocratic families."Concerning the aristocratic families?" Lionel appeared knowledgeable. "Have you incurred their displeasure?"Julius shook his head. "I've had no dealings with them. However, a few days back, someone claiming to be from the Hernandez family visited my home. They spoke accurately about our progenitor."It seems they intend to absorb ours."Lionel nodded thoughtfully. "I hadn't anticipated this. The ties between your Hernandez family and the aristocrats run deeper than I imagined."While time had obscured much history, Lionel knew that the Hernandezes arrived later compared to the McClains. Over time, they rose to prominence in King City, eventually becoming one of its top-tier families.Yet, Lionel hadn't realized that the Hernandez

    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
