Xing Tie, my abstract thinking ability is refreshed every week.

That area, which is usually used by employees to project tables to show the pros and cons of a certain market, is now occupied by a small black tower figure that takes up the entire screen.

"What's the benefit of being an enemy of the company?!"

Zaitian completely doesn't understand.

Black Tower and the company are half partners; they're not particularly close, but they maintain a relationship of mutual respect and non-interference.

The company practically worshipped this genius, granting his every request.

Even though people don't need it, their attitude speaks for itself.

I never expected to be betrayed by a friendly party today!

"Have those people in charge of technical security drop everything and intercept this communication. We absolutely cannot let her continue!"

Tian Yi's face darkened; for the first time, the usually amiable man was somewhat vulnerable.

"Stop them? How?"

Ya Poli, the head of the technology research and development department and the actual controller of the Bo Shi Society, thought he was joking.

"This is the work of a genius. Do you really expect a group of 'geniuses' who can't even get past the threshold of the genius club to solve it?"

"Where's Screws? Go and fetch him!"

The company has established excellent working relationships with more than one genius.

Dr. Chadwick was subjected to inhumane imprisonment.

Death is something shared by both inorganic and organic life. If a person cannot even accept death, then how twisted has this world become?

The moment his words fell, Screw Gum's voice rang out.

Zaitian felt as if the sky had fallen.

What is the extraordinary origin of Chang Geng?

Even the Immortal Boat Alliance wouldn't allow two geniuses to endorse him, meaning he earned their appreciation entirely through his own abilities.

This appreciation isn't just ordinary optimism, it's genuine importance.

She'd rather break ties with the company than not help him—that shows how dedicated she is!

Let me put it more clearly.

The voice of the Black Tower rang out once again.

At the time of Chadwick's death, the company unilaterally stripped him of his consciousness and imprisoned him in Pinocchio.

All of this was for the sake of acquiring the knowledge in his mind, for his own benefit.

Although I would love to introduce this genius's life story, I will stop here.

Today's protagonist isn't Chadwick, but a sea patrol ranger.

As soon as he finished speaking, the LED screen went black.

What was originally just a pixelated black tower figure and a large coin has been transformed into an art style reminiscent of a fairy tale picture book.

Upon closer inspection, the scenes inside are clearly based on Pinocchio.

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became quiet.

"It's all over now..."

Tian lay back in his chair, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Upon hearing the words "Sea Patrol Knights," he knew what these people were up to.

Even if the company doesn't suffer complete disgrace after this incident.

But before he could kill Chang Geng to save face, he was not far from being utterly disgraced.

[A chivalrous patrol of the seas, punishing the wicked and upholding justice.]

This time, it wasn't the Black Tower's voice.

It was a voice that was unfamiliar to others, but quite familiar to Chang Geng.

A seafaring adventurer arrives in Pinocchio by chance. Unlike the dreamers, he witnesses the oppression that lies beneath the glamorous facade of the dream.

As the enthusiastic voice rang out, the image on the LED screen changed again.

A bright blue longbow and a light blue camera are parading across the background map of Pinocchio when they suddenly encounter an old man sitting on a bench.

That's Chadwick.

The report jointly produced by Black Tower and Screw Gum is telling the story in a picture book style.

The wandering swordsman struck up a conversation with the old man and accepted a commission to kill him.

When it comes to matters related to Chang Gung, even in recordings, March 7th's voice is still full of emotion.

After some questioning, the wandering swordsman learned about the old man's experiences.

The screen went black, and when it returned to normal, it had changed to a different scene.

Pier Point.

I'm sure no one would fail to recognize him.

The wandering knight decided to help him take revenge, so he went to his door.

On the screen, Bright Blue Longbow faced Pierpont's massive army alone.

The wandering knight repeatedly demanded the person be handed over, emphasizing the need to take responsibility for one's actions. However, the capitalist denied having done it and even engaged in a physical fight to prove his innocence.

As soon as the words were spoken, the background of the bright blue longbow suddenly changed, and they arrived at a magnificent space where a giant, earthen-yellow elephant was watching from above.

Subspace and the King of Amber.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows where this is.

There was no further narration; only the visuals changed one by one.

A large diamond and a paper doll created by P48 blocked the Longbow, while a large fleet of miniature ships surrounded the Longbow from above.

The screen then abruptly went black.

No further updates will be displayed.

You can hide it for a while, but not forever.

The truth will not be buried forever, and justice will not remain unserved forever.

This is the consistent philosophy of the Sea Patrol Rangers.

If you don't believe this story is true, then the company can have the two people who appeared last come forward to clarify.

After all, the dead can't speak.

What was the final outcome? Whose person do the diamond and p48 represent? And what does this scene symbolize?

Coupled with the words left behind by the Black Tower, everything is self-evident.

The announcement was made, and the conference room fell into a deathly silence.

Each of the managers present remained silent, feeling a burning pain on their faces.

This is the first time the company has been so humiliated.

Chang Geng, Black Tower, and Screw Gumu.

The three of them blatantly trampled on their prestige and even used the company's reputation to promote the name of the Sea Patrol Knights.

This is undoubtedly an absolute provocation against them.

"Should we launch an attack to encircle and annihilate them?"

One of the heads of the talent incentive department, Mtoyoun, asked.

"If we launch an attack and annihilate them, at least half of the company will be gone."

Ya Poli indicated that if a real fight broke out, the casualties would be heavy.

Silence fell once again.

Regardless of whether Chang Geng's claim of being unharmed is true, the fact remains that he killed two "commanders".

"Commander"

Even with two people from the company, they couldn't defeat someone of this caliber, and they couldn't even achieve a fair fight.

How to fight this?

Even if we win a real fight, the company's capital will likely be almost entirely depleted by then.

They want to come to the Immortal Boat Alliance and take the opportunity to get involved.

It seems the Interstellar Peace Company will have to change its name soon.

Unless we ask the patriarch to come out of seclusion, this is a dead end.

The company is highly likely to face destruction or being swallowed up after a narrow victory in war.

Without war, the dignity of "preservation" will be shattered.

Unless Chang-Geng dies naturally or accidentally, the company will have to rely on him for life.

Should I back down for now, or should I avoid his sharp edge?

Defend your honor or play dead – that is a very difficult choice.

"Those three didn't even have a body?"

After a while, Mrs. Scarface, the head of the Business Consolidation Department, spoke up and asked.

"He died without a complete corpse," Zaitian sighed.

If only there were still corpses.

It is not difficult for the company to combine technology with a physical body.

Then try to possess a "Suiyang" body, which should be enough to handle the situation.

As a result, Chang Geng completely dismantled all three of them.

Moreover, the degree of disassembly is so extreme that even super assembly can't save it; after all that effort, you can't even put it back together.

"Come and seek those destined for 'pleasure'."

The scarred lady's words were filled with helplessness and hatred for Chang Geng.

"This is the only option right now."

They either openly admit defeat and declare war on Chang Geng, or they try to gloss over the situation and pretend nothing happened.

Upon hearing this suggestion, the other five remained silent.

No one agreed, but no one refused either.

"Are we really just going to let him trample on us?" Ya Poli said, somewhat frustrated.

"if not?"

Mrs. Scarface was unwilling, but there was nothing she could do.

"Not only have both 'Envoys' gotten involved, but he also has the Immortal Boat Alliance as a backing, not to mention the members of the Genius Club are on good terms with him."

"Unless we reach a cooperation agreement with some powerful force, it will be a waste of the company's long-term accumulation."

The "Commanders," a rare occurrence in the world, appeared in this situation nine times, all of them from the opposing side.

This is no longer a catastrophe, but a trap set by the matchmaking system!

Does the company knowingly go up to their doom knowing they are no match for the enemy?

"What about the family?"

When Tian heard the word "cooperation," the first person he thought of was his ally who had been colluding with him not long ago.

"Families? I doubt they can even protect themselves."

Ya Po Li laughed when she heard this.

"Have you forgotten where this ranger found the company? Do you think Pinocchio is any clean company?"

Ya Poli said gloatingly, "Just wait and see, our family will soon be the second to suffer."
