Tiger confirmed the time and location, then asked Big Sis to pass the message to Eric. They were meeting at Tiger's upscale place, Aqua Oasis, which stayed open during the day.

Upon arrival, Eric told the waiter why he was there. The waiter quickly took him inside, showing that Tiger had made arrangements.

Shortly after, the waiter led Eric to a hot spring area, where Tiger relaxed in a pool, surrounded by two beautiful women.

The waiter whispered to Tiger, "Mr. Kirkby, the guest is here! He's alone!"

Tiger turned to Eric with a smile. "I thought you might not show up or would bring others. Your courage reminds me of my youth!"

He clapped, and a group of stunning women in bikinis approached.

Eric might have been tempted in the past, but things had changed. After enjoying fine food, returning to his old ways was unappealing. However, Tiger's lifestyle was undeniably luxurious.

Tiger pointed to the women. "Choose a few you like. They'll take care of you!"

Eric replied, "Mr. Kirkb

    Jasmine had taken a bold risk by placing her hopes on Eric in such a situation. If Eric had claimed not to know her, she would have faced a terrible fate. Yet, she had gambled right this time.Regaining his composure, Tiger said, "Brook is your brother-in-law, and you'd eventually hear about these things from him. Let me give you a quick rundown for now."In the underworld, apart from me, there are other influential figures, like Big Sis. While Big Sis and Brook's methods may not be as ruthless, their actions aren't very merciful either. Many others are even less forgiving."Many of the girls in my club are brought here by them. Every year, I provide them with money. These girls get replaced annually, and after leaving my place, they end up as valuable assets for other establishments. Still, their lives don't get any better."Eric understood. Beneath the glamorous facade, a dirty business thrived. Despite efforts to crack down on it for years, these illicit activities persisted due

    Eric nodded and said, "Yes, it's only been four months. Testing my abilities was just one reason. The other was that someone in my family strongly opposed it."Tiger suddenly grasped the situation. It turned out that Sylvia was the reason Eric avoided getting involved in underground fights despite the attractive prize money. This explained Eric's reluctance—their affection ran deep.Tiger sighed, seemingly reflecting on past regrets, then nodded and said, "I understand now that Ms. Williams is against it."Shifting the conversation, Tiger asked, "Have you met Lucas Petterson?""Lucas?" Eric's furrowed brow indicated his familiarity with Lucas.Tiger continued. "This morning, Lucas approached me, seeking my connections to deal with the Williams and Sonnex families. Initially, I declined, but he dangled the prospect of experienced fighters from King City. It got me thinking."Eric fell silent but quickly regained his composure. If Tiger shared this information, he might not agree t

    After their conversation, Eric departed.Mainly, Tiger discussed the matter of underground fighting with him, but he didn't expect Eric to fight right away.Jasmine was now in a different attire, waiting outside Aqua Oasis. When she spotted Eric, she rushed toward him."Eric!" Jasmine called out.Eric furrowed his brow, nearly forgetting about Jasmine."Do you need something else?" Eric asked, eager to return to Williams Corp. He needed to inform the Williams and Sonnexes about Lucas' actions and take preventive measures."I didn't know you knew Tiger too," Jasmine said, studying Eric. She had heard Tiger address Eric as "Mr. Johnson." Such respect indicated Eric's significance in Tiger's eyes.David had informed her about Tiger's identity. He had mentioned that if Tiger took interest in her, her life would change, though the likelihood was slim.However, Jasmine couldn't help but notice that Eric had transformed since their breakup. Even Tiger addressed him as "Mr. Johnson", a

    As newcomers, the Pettersons needed a lot of money, which they couldn't afford. Making matters worse, the Williams and Sonnexes were already forming alliances and strengthening their positions. This made it even harder for the Pettersons to enter the scene.Sylvia cautioned, "We need to be careful. Lucas isn't trustworthy." She knew Lucas well—he was deceitful and relentless in pursuing his goals.-At Sonnex Corp.Irvin showed little concern. "I'm familiar with the Pettersons. They're the top family in Dortmund, known for a history of violence. It's logical for them to approach Tiger.""But don't worry, Eric," Irvin reassured. "They won't be much of a threat here in Salt City."Eric nodded, not because Irvin was arrogant but because the Sonnexes had a strong history in Salt City. On the other hand, the Pettersons were unlikely to pose a significant threat.Still, the Williams and Sonnexes agreed on one thing: while the Pettersons might not be a major danger, caution was essenti

    At the Williams residence.Two well-dressed men stood at the entrance, appearing imposing and possibly serving as bodyguards. Their defined cheekbones and rough hands hinted at their expertise in martial arts.Eric and Sylvia exchanged confused glances. They knew they had never hired bodyguards of this caliber before, which raised questions about the visitor's identity and purpose.Shortly after, Sylvia's brothers returned home, all curious about the distinguished guest who warranted such vigilant protection. The presence of these bodyguards hinted that this visitor was not an ordinary person.Upon entering the living room, they discovered a woman engaged in conversation with Henry. She exuded elegance and grace, her appearance comparable to Sylvia's.Eric and the group were baffled. They didn't recognize this woman and had never seen her before."Ah, here they are." Henry chuckled and pointed to his children. "These are my kids, all around your age."He introduced them one by o

    Montgomery Corp. had a vast business reach, extending even into unexplored sectors like energy.If Montgomery Corp. got involved in Salt City's business, Williams Corp. would likely have little left to do.Seraphine visited to inform the Williams family that Montgomery Corp. planned to open a branch in Salt City but wouldn't engage in local business activities.This puzzled Henry. Why establish a branch with no business purpose? Was it just to assert their presence? Yet, the Montgomerys had no need for such an assertion.Seraphine turned to Sylvia, asking, "Ms. Williams, do you mind us setting up a branch in Salt City?"Sylvia smiled faintly. "It's the Montgomerys' right to do so.""Very well." Seraphine nodded, rising. "I must visit the Sonnexes now. I won't bother you further."As Seraphine left with the Williams family's escort, Henry pondered. "This is puzzling. Why create an empty shell company?"He remained baffled. Seraphine's visit had been solely to inform them about t

    "I..." Eric felt a bit uneasy under Sylvia's scrutiny. "I really don't know her! I've never met her before."Today marked Eric's first encounter with Seraphine, and he had no previous knowledge of her existence. Her intense stare left him utterly bewildered. Did she genuinely like him? It didn't add up."You really don't know her?" Sylvia asked, her gaze fixed on Eric. "If you're a complete stranger to her, why would she lock her eyes on you for a solid ten seconds?"You see, she belongs to the Montgomerys, and they're known for being very selective. Without any connections, what's her interest in you?"Sylvia's jealousy and insecurity were evident. The Montgomery name carried significant weight, and though Seraphine might not have been as stunning as Sylvia, her family's influence made her a formidable contender.Sylvia feared Eric might succumb to Seraphine's charms. After all, few could resist such a woman."I honestly have no idea!" Eric responded, caught off guard by Serap

    Puzzled, Eric shook his head. "I don't know either..." -Eric and Sylvia headed to the nail salon early in the morning after breakfast.Andy joined them quite early, possibly because it was the weekend. He assisted Elly in opening the shop and diligently cleaned the area."Elly, is there anything else I can do?" Andy asked, setting the broom aside.Elly rolled her eyes and replied, "You can take a break."She was a bit frustrated as Andy seemed unshakeable. She had even asked him what he liked about her so she could adjust herself accordingly. However, Andy had boldly declared that he'd still like her no matter how she changed."Hello, Eric and Sylvia!" Andy greeted them with a smile.Eric's lips twitched slightly—he was still adjusting to this relationship.Just then, Sylvia's phone rang. Seeing an unknown number, she answered and questioned, "Who is this?"Upon hearing the response, Sylvia frowned. She then said, "He's with me at Elly's nail salon. Come over."After endin

    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
