Given Eric's skills and background, he likely possessed the capability to handle this situation.

"Matteo, is this... the object Scar obtained from the tomb?" Eric asked.

"Yes! Scar acquired this object. He was unwilling to stop and desired more but ended up buried in the process. Many lost their lives in the underworld for it!

"But Mr. Johnson, rest assured. No one knows it is in my hands, at least not for now. They won't know it's already in your hands."

Eric nodded. "That should reduce some trouble."

After a brief stay, Matteo departed.

With nothing else to do, Eric studied the contents of the book. It was significantly more profound than the Basic Breath Regulation Method, but Eric could comprehend it. It wasn't until the afternoon that a call from Sean interrupted him.

He had a basic understanding of the situation with the Rogers family. They had sought medical treatment globally to save an important member who was critically ill.

However, the residential gate remained firmly closed, leaving Brent perplexed.Meanwhile, his frustration increased as there was no servant at the entrance, making it impossible to discern the situation inside.Aware of the peculiar temperaments of holistic physicians and having faced rejections before, Brent patiently waited at the gate.It wasn't until nearly 10:00 a.m.

    Eric's demeanor shifted to a slightly solemn expression."Mr. Rogers, I believe you are well aware of why your father ended up like this."Brent understood the situation upon hearing that."Hol. Johnson is right. My father was poisoned, and due to his old age, the poison caused other complications. If it weren't for advanced medical technology, he would have died for sure."Yes, some people wanted my father dead. If Hol. Johnson wakes him up, you will undoubtedly become their enemy!"However, Hol. Johnson, I can absolutely guarantee your safety!"Eric smiled, finding conversing with intelligent individuals like Brent effortless."That makes things much easier. However, I must warn you, Mr. Rogers. After the treatment, your father will be lucid for three days. He will be no different from a healthy person during these three days."But, after three days, he will die!"Brent's joyful expression turned grim at the end of Eric's words. "Hol. Johnson… is there no other way?"Eric s

    The treatment was swift, yet Buck displayed no reaction. Observing this, Brent couldn't help but inquire, "Hol. Johnson, is that all?"It seemed somewhat unbelievable to him. Buck's condition was already extremely dire. Could a rapid treatment genuinely bring him back to life and make him lively for three days?"He will wake up in ten minutes. Organize whatever you need to in these three days. After that, no one can save him," Eric calmly stated.Brent felt conflicted. He didn't want Buck to die, but the Rogers family's situation left Buck in charge.Eric's thoughts were clearly not with the Rogers family—he was likely thinking that Sylvia would be overjoyed to see him again.After administering the treatment, Eric returned to his room to rest. The affairs of the Rogers family were not his concern, and he didn't care about the reaction of the family members once Buck woke up.Shortly after, Brent approached Eric."Thank you, Hol. Johnson. My father has awakened, and his conditio

The last time they had met, Eric had promised to take her home, and true to his word, he didn't disappoint.Brent understood that Sylvia and Eric's relationship was complex. Without launching an investigation, he just smiled faintly and returned to the second floor.Hearing commotion upstairs, Eric guided Sylvia to his room.With many doubts lingering since her detention, Sylvia expected continuous confinement. Even when the Rogers family arrived to retrieve her, she thought it was just a change of location until she saw Eric.Eric elaborated, revealing the formidable power of the Rogers family in Phoenix City. The group that detained her was no ordinary enemy, yet the Rogers family had managed to resolve it."You've been through a lot," Sylvia said empathetically. She knew Eric had done everything to bring her home, and he had succeeded."We'll go back tomorro

    If the room's door were kicked open, Eric would swiftly confront and eliminate the intruders. Thirty minutes later, only occasional gunshots echoed, signaling the conclusion of the intense battle.Sylvia remained anxious, uncertain about the victor.Who dared to launch a night assault on the Rogers family?A sudden knock on the door startled Eric. "Hol. Johnson, Ms. Williams, I apologize for the disturbance. The threat has been neutralized. Please rest assured," Brent told them.After such an ordeal, sleep eluded Eric and Sylvia.Eric spoke. "Mr. Rogers, my plane is still at Phoenix City Airport. Could you arrange for our return to King City tonight?"If it were only Eric, waiting until morning would suffice, but with Sylvia's safety in mind, immediate action was imperative.As for the Rogers family, Buck was lucid, Brent had assisted in bringing Sylvia back, and most matters had been resolved.The affairs of the Rogers family were no longer Eric's concern."Alright!

    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
