Day of Imprisonment

Zhou Di had many subordinates, and He Liang was definitely one of them, along with numerous others he had gathered over the past thousand or so loop days.

Middle-level, lower-level, and even bottom-level administrators and employees all had people working for Zhou Di.

It could be said that he now controlled half of the 'Company'.

At times, Zhou Di believed he had already taken control of the 'Company'.

But in reality, this was not the case.

The appearance of the newly promoted Vice President was proof of this.

Whether he admitted it or not, the emergence of a high-level executive at the Vice President level would inevitably take away the benefits that originally belonged to him within the 'Company', and these benefits were the ownership of the scenarios.

Administrators managed scenarios and bottom-level employees, supervisors managed administrators, and regional directors controlled supervisors while reporting to the Vice President.

There was a hierarchical relationship at every level.

Because even Vice Presidents had a special 'assessment' from the Company, which looked at the performance of all the scenarios under their management.

In the past, Zhou Di was the only Vice President, so he didn't care about this assessment and had even forgotten about it.

But when another Vice President appeared, the situation changed.

There was now a ranking mechanism between Vice Presidents.

For the time being, Zhou Di was definitely ranked first, after all, time was on his side.

And this Vice President was the first high-level executive besides Zhou Di to climb up from the bottom, step by step, according to the Company's promotion rules, which meant that as long as the promotion channel was open, others would definitely climb up later.

The newly promoted Vice President was very good at handling matters, and after appearing on the floors that only Zhou Di could set foot on in the past, he showed great enthusiasm, appearing quite friendly and without any malice.

His name was 'Han Guo'. When facing Zhou Di, he kept his attitude very low and humbly sought advice in everything.

Obviously, this attitude made Zhou Di lower his guard.

And because Zhou Di didn't focus his attention on the other party, Han Guo's power had increased several times after about several hundred loop days, and the number of scenarios under his control had also exceeded a hundred.

In the Vice President's performance ranking, he could already compete with Zhou Di.

After that, a third 'Vice President' appeared.

It was equivalent to establishing another banner within the 'Company', and many unattached middle and lower-level employees immediately defected to him.

There were many scenario resources within the Company, and it was impossible for one Vice President to turn all these scenarios into his 'subordinates'. Generally speaking, a Vice President-level existence could control about 150 to 200 checkpoint scenarios.

Zhou Di had long ago raised the number of subordinate scenarios to the limit. What he had to do now was to keep the good ones and eliminate the bad ones, retaining the scenarios with good performance and replacing the ones with poor performance.

When Han Guo appeared before, Zhou Di paid attention to him, but after the subsequent Vice Presidents appeared, he was too lazy to pay attention to them.

As the saying goes, he was still the top-ranked Vice President in terms of performance and scenario quality, and no one could shake his ranking and position in the short term.

But what Zhou Di didn't expect was that one day, a sudden change occurred.

In the corridor on the forty-seventh floor of the headquarters building, which only Vice Presidents could access, Zhou Di was suddenly attacked.

It was the fourth Vice President to be promoted, and Zhou Di didn't even know his name.

When this guy walked past him, he directly attacked, delivering a heavy blow to Zhou Di's head.

The Company's rule was that promotion to Vice President would grant Extraordinary Rank B enhancement.

So this punch directly staggered Zhou Di.

But Zhou Di was, after all, the Company's first Vice President, with rich combat experience. He immediately stabilized his body and was about to fight back, but the next moment, someone strangled his neck from behind.

It was the third Vice President to be promoted.

The other party had actually attacked as well.

Zhou Di realized that something was wrong.

If it was just one opponent of the same level, he wouldn't be afraid, but if there were two Vice President-level existences, that is, two Extraordinary Rank B existences, besieging him together, he would definitely not be a match.

Struggling to break free, Zhou Di leaned against the wall, at this moment, he was attacked from both sides.

At this moment, his mind was exceptionally clear.

"Have you two gone crazy? The Company's rules state that internal members are not allowed to attack each other, especially those in the same position. If violated, the Company will impose severe sanctions."

He could even recite all the rules and regulations on the spot.

"Vice President Zhou, they are not crazy."

At this time, a person walked over.

Seeing the other party, Zhou Di frowned. The other party was the second Vice President to be promoted, Han Guo.

In the past, this guy was very amiable, and his attitude towards Zhou Di could be described as humble, completely as an existence of a lower rank, but now it seemed that the previous respect and humility were all disguises.

Moreover, he disguised himself quite well.

At least Zhou Di didn't see this guy's wolfish ambitions.

"The Company does stipulate that internal personnel are not allowed to have conflicts, but you seem to have overlooked a problem. Regulations are regulations, and even the best regulations need people to enforce them. In the past, as the highest-level existence within the Company, the most we did was to represent the Company and reward and punish the people below according to the regulations. In other words, we, the Vice President-level existence, are currently the highest enforcers of the Company's rules. So, if we break the rules, who can punish us according to the Company's rules?"

Han Guo even laughed at the end of his sentence.

The laughter was filled with contempt and ridicule.

Zhou Di immediately realized what was going on.

Han Guo was right.

The Company's internal regulations were indeed very strict, but in the past, he was the one who enforced them, and Zhou Di had never thought of violating these regulations, because there was no need.

So he overlooked the most important issue, which was the BUG in these regulations.

If the person who violated the rules was currently the person in power within the Company who enforced the regulations and rewarded and punished, then who could sanction them if they violated the rules?

The answer was no one.

Because currently, no one within the Company had been promoted to 'General Manager'.

If there was a General Manager, without a doubt, the General Manager would be the highest authority to enforce regulations and reward and punish.

If there was no General Manager, then the Vice President would be the highest authority.

Now, three Vice Presidents were working together to attack one Vice President.

That's right, they were breaking the rules, violating the Company's regulations, but if no one could punish them, these regulations would be nothing more than empty words.

Zhou Di immediately understood what was going on.

He took a deep breath.

"In other words, you have been working together for a long time."

"Almost. We didn't want to do this at first, and we were afraid, but the benefits were too great. If we eliminate you, then we can truly monopolize the power. Also, you are too strong and have too much authority. All the scenarios you control are the most profitable and have the best performance. In this way, you have the greatest chance of being promoted to General Manager. So, we have to pull you down from the first place so that we have a chance!"

Han Guo said this in a righteous manner. At the same time, he also took out a weapon and, together with the other two Vice Presidents, formed a circle around Zhou Di.

They were all Extraordinary Rank B, and running away was definitely impossible.

Fighting was also impossible.

Zhou Di knew very well that he was unprepared, while the other party was very well prepared.

At this time, he completely calmed down.

It was as if he had returned to thousands of loop days ago and had become the person who schemed against Chu Yu again.

"I understand. Then, before you finally make your move, I'm curious about one thing." Zhou Di took off his coat, revealing terrifyingly strong muscles, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's.

"Go ahead!" Han Guo smiled. He could attack at any time.

"How are you sure that you can withstand my counterattack in the next loop day?" Zhou Di clenched his fists, and the aura on his body also rose to the extreme. The power of Extraordinary Rank B could unleash extremely terrifying destruction in battle.

While speaking, Zhou Di had already thought of a tactic.

First kill the fourth promoted Vice President, the other party was the weakest. As long as he eliminated one, then in a one-on-two situation, he wouldn't lose too badly.

"Next loop day? Haha, Vice President Zhou, do you think we haven't thought about it? Since we dared to attack, we have already thought of an ending for you. Don't worry, your Vice President level will not be stripped, but you will no longer have a chance to fight back. We will turn you into a vegetable and put you in a special scenario, using the scenario mechanism to completely imprison you, just like a cage specially built for you."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Di had already attacked.

His speed was so fast that he only left an afterimage in place. The next second, he had rushed to the front of the fourth Vice President at a speed several times faster than a cheetah, using his finger as a thorn to attack the other party's throat.

This sneak attack was without any struggle, as fast as lightning, and its momentum was like a mountain collapsing.

Although the fourth Vice President also reacted, his movements were still half a beat slower, and Zhou Di pierced his throat with one finger.

The latter took advantage of the victory to pursue, using extremely terrifying explosive force, grabbed the other party's head, and used both hands to tear off the Vice President's head alive.

Blood spurted out more than two meters away, and the ceiling was covered with it.

And Han Guo and the Third Vice President also reacted quickly, and immediately stepped forward to besiege him at the same time.

They both had weapons, which was already an advantage against Zhou Di, who was empty-handed. Moreover, the two of them joined forces to besiege him. Although Zhou Di was already fighting back with all his strength, he was still outnumbered.

When Zhou Di fell to the ground, this floor of the corridor had been destroyed beyond recognition, and the walls were full of holes and cracks, but this building seemed to have some kind of self-healing ability, and those serious injuries that could even cause a collapse were repaired in a few minutes.

"Vice President Zhou, I personally admire you very much, but when you become a stumbling block on my path to promotion, I can only choose to kick you away. I'm sorry!" Han Guo spat out a mouthful of blood. He was also seriously injured this time. After all, both sides had gone all out in the battle with Zhou Di, but he still won by relying on the advantage in numbers.

After speaking, Zhou Di saw the other party raise his foot and stomp down hard.

Darkness ~

Weightlessness ~

It seemed to last only a moment before Zhou Di opened his eyes. He felt intense pain, and what was most terrifying was that he couldn't move.

He found himself lying on a hospital bed, with many medical devices connected to his body.
